Grandpa, times have changed.

"Tsk tsk, girls really do change a lot as they grow up..." she couldn't help but sigh.

wrong!

Senior Yuanjun is hundreds of thousands of years old; it should be said that she has undergone a remarkable transformation as she aged.

However, if one hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, who would believe that this eccentric and somewhat arrogant little girl would be the future True Immortal Yuanjun?
Having completely let loose, Chi Jiuyu criticized everyone equally.

She even complained about her master, let alone others!
Unfortunately, the photographic equipment on her body couldn't capture the past scenes, otherwise she would definitely have recorded everything she was seeing now!
Night was falling.

Perhaps because of Xu Xing's previous actions, the atmosphere in the settlement has eased considerably.

The gazes of those teenagers towards Xu Xing gradually shifted from anger to jealousy.

emm...

After all, Yuan herself was very beautiful, and there wasn't a single young man in the settlement who didn't like her.

Not to mention that Bie Xuening, who came with Xu Xing, was in no way inferior.

Heart of beauty in everyone.

Naturally, Xu Xing stood out conspicuously between the two.

Similarly, many girls looked at Xu Xing with curiosity in their eyes.

Xu's image is also quite acceptable.

Soon after, as the meat beside the fire was cooked, everyone in the settlement enjoyed a delicious meal.

After eating and drinking their fill, some of the teenagers who already had ideas huddled together and whispered for a while before forming a group to approach Xu Xing.

"Hey!"

Meanwhile, Xu Xing, having eaten and drunk his fill, was leaning against a rock, lost in thought.

He usually either cultivates or practices swordsmanship, or he is taken out by his master to fight against those ferocious beasts and strange creatures. If he slacks off even slightly, his master will whip him with a bamboo stick.

For the past two weeks, I've been trekking through mountains and rivers...

Now that he finally has a chance to rest and relax, he cherishes it very much.

"……What's up?"

Looking at the group of people who came up in front of him, Xu Xing was speechless.

He knew perfectly well why they had approached him, and he understood what was going to happen next.

That's why it feels troublesome.

Instead of wasting time dealing with these things, you might as well take a good rest.

"Do you dare to compete with us!"

The leader was a burly, broad-shouldered man with eyes wide and piercing like copper bells.

His voice was deep and powerful, and it sounded extremely intimidating.

This image...

Xu Xing glanced at the teenager behind him, then at himself, and for a moment he was uncertain.

"Hey sir, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, the burly figure's dark face turned bright red.

“I’m only fifteen years old!” he shouted.

Fifteen years old?
Xu Xing was taken aback when he saw the burly man in front of him, who was nearly two meters tall and had strong facial features.

He's fifteen?!
People would believe she's thirty-five!
Perhaps it was because Xu Xing's expression was so hurtful that the burly man felt somewhat aggrieved.

"Sorry, I didn't expect you to look so old..." Xu Xing said sincerely.

puff!
Behind him, someone couldn't help but laugh.

Even Yuan, who was not far away, had a slight smile on his lips.

The burly man felt even more aggrieved upon seeing this.

"Do you even dare to compete?!"

Defeating Xu Xing = Xu Xing losing face = Xu Xing being too embarrassed to bother Yuan anymore.

There's even a possibility that by showcasing their 'strength,' they could gain Bie Xuening's attention.

It can only be said that young people these days are quite direct in their actions and have a very simple way of thinking.

"I……"

Xu Xing was about to refuse.

He really didn't want to argue with people over such a meaningless reason, especially since this was a gathering of his master's friends.

The less trouble, the better.

"Xiao Xing," Wu Shi said.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Since this young man is so interested, why don't you practice with him?"

This scene is somewhat similar to part of the storyline that Xiao Xing had told before.

Wu Shi found it very interesting.

Moreover, he originally wanted Xiao Xing, Xue Ning, and these little ones to try their hand at it.

"Good!" San Shi laughed loudly, "In that case, whoever wins will get this Radiant Sun Fruit!"

After saying that, he flipped his right hand over.

A golden, sun-like spiritual fruit was placed on the stone table between him and Wu Shi.

Wu Shi smiled and placed a small bottle of Moon Crown Bamboo Essence next to the spiritual fruit.

"What a cliché development," Chi Jiuyu couldn't help but complain.

but……

This is so interesting!

……

……

About a minute and a half.

On a wide platform carved from a single massive rock, Xu Xing stood to one side of the arena, holding an iron sword in his hand.

Opposite him stood a burly young man nearly two meters tall, carrying an iron rod.

"Xu Xing, please enlighten me."

Xu Xing bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

Although the burly young man was puzzled, he probably thought it was more 'formal' and returned the greeting, mimicking Xu Xing's gesture.

The sound was like thunder!

"Zhen! Please enlighten me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhen picked up his long staff and charged towards him, sending sparks flying across the arena.

"Be careful!"

Without any fancy moves, he raised the iron rod high, and with a flash of light, smashed it down on Xu Xing's head.

The powerful strike carried terrifying force, even producing a chilling whistling sound in the air. Xu Xing remained calm, his spiritual energy coiling around the sword.

He could have easily dodged the attack, but he chose to raise his sword and meet it head-on.

when!
A crisp metallic clang rang out, and the spiritual energy vibrated, spreading out in a visible ripple.

The heavy staff was raised high, causing the person to stagger backward uncontrollably, their eyes, like copper bells, filled with disbelief.

Clearly, in this contest of pure strength and spiritual power, the much thinner Xu Xing had completely gained the upper hand!

Taking advantage of the moment when Zhen was unsteady, Xu Xing pressed forward, changing his grip on the longsword from normal to reverse, and slammed the tip of the sword in front of him!
Boom!
A muffled thud.

Zhen stared wide-eyed, staggered backward, and finally knelt on the ground, clutching his chest.

I tried to get up, but I felt a tightness in my chest, as if my internal organs were all tangled up and I couldn't muster any strength.

After struggling several times but still unable to get up, he finally gave up.

"You win."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the audience, except for Wu Shi, San Shi, Shi Jiu, and Bie Xue Ning, froze.

Zhen actually lost?!

He's the most powerful besides Hong and Yuan!
"Hey! You think you can challenge my martial uncle with your level? You're just overestimating yourself!" Chi Jiuyu said smugly.

Although my uncle is currently weak, only at the lower-middle level among the sixth level of Qi Refining in modern times, he is not someone that someone who has just reached the fifth level of Qi Refining can easily mess with!

Bie Xuening, sitting in the audience, glanced at everyone, feeling quite smug.

Wu Shi, San Shi, and Shi Jiu remained quite calm.

They were all cultivators at the Unity Realm, and they had long ago realized that Xu Xing's total spiritual power was higher than Zhen's.

However, he heard from Wu Shi that Xu Xing had only been practicing cultivation for a little over two years, and Zhen was born with superhuman strength, so he thought of having a competition.

We lost...

That's normal.

"You flatter me!" Xu Xing bowed respectfully.

Then she reached out to pull him.

Unexpectedly, Zhen stood up and looked at him with an unusually serious tone.

"I didn't let you win; I really couldn't beat them."

He was completely convinced.

This guy looks skinny and weak, but I didn't expect him to be such a strong fighter.

Just as Xu Xing was about to say something more polite,

"I'll do it!"

Under the moonlight, a slender figure gracefully leaped onto the arena, holding a three-foot-long iron rod in her hand, her clear eyes fixed on Xu Xing.

But it was Yuan!
"I'll compete against you!"

"..."

He didn't know why, but he always felt that this young lady was very hostile towards him.

I don't think I've ever offended her, have I?
But since we've already started...

Xu Xing glanced at his master and saw him nod slightly.

"Xu Xing, please enlighten me."

Yuan also bowed respectfully.

Compared to Zhen's awkward movements, her movements were almost identical to Xu Xing's!
"Yuan, please enlighten me."

Immediately, the two raised their weapons at the same time.

They stood facing off for about three seconds.

tread!
The two rushed at each other almost simultaneously, unleashing their spiritual energy, which swirled around their weapons.

Ding!
The sword blade collided with the staff, sparks flying at the point of contact, accompanied by a subtle ripple of spiritual energy.

The next instant, their figures passed each other.

But in the instant he turned his back, a wisp of spiritual energy rod swept forward and exploded in front of Yuan Jun!

Using the impact of this spiritual energy shock, she stopped her forward momentum and turned around, kicking Xu Xing in the back.

Ok? !

Feeling the strong wind coming from behind, Xu Xing decisively relaxed his body and let himself fall forward.

I narrowly escaped that kick.

Before that stomp landed, he braced himself against the ground with one hand while unleashing a burst of spiritual energy.

boom!
Dust billowed up, and Xu Xing suddenly rose into the air in a bizarre way, flipping to the side.

Before he even landed, the iron sword in his hand had already slashed horizontally.

The spiritual energy attached to the blade vibrated at high speed, directly drawing out a scorching stream of flame in the air.

Bear!
The scorching heat forced Yuan to retreat, preventing him from continuing his attack.

For the past two years, he has been forced by his master to practice swordsmanship every day, so he has not come up empty-handed.

Besides his swordsmanship becoming increasingly refined, this is also a little trick he figured out!
offstage.

Chi Jiuyu stared intently, afraid of missing a single detail.

Although she sees their current matchup as nothing more than a "chicken fight".

When she was at the sixth level of Qi Refining, she could have easily defeated both of them with one hand.

But the problem is, these are my uncle and senior Yuanjun!

Senior Yuanjun, who was so fond of her martial uncle, actually harbored such great hostility towards him when they were young, and even fought with him!
Gee!

Eye-opener!

This was truly an eye-opening experience!

Judging from the current situation, the two have roughly the same total spiritual energy, and their overall strength is not significantly different.

Who will win in the end?

emm...

It must be my martial uncle!
After all, my uncle will become the strongest true immortal in the future.

This is a victory.

In addition, there are no supernatural powers or magic in this era.

However, the martial uncle knew the swordsmanship manual created by the grandmaster.

This is the second win.

Finally, Senior Yuanjun does not know "Swordsmanship".

This is a triple victory!

No matter how you look at it, Martial Uncle is destined to win! (End of Chapter)
