How to capture the evil villain? I choose to be his mother!

Chapter 538 The Useless Female Supporting Character's Sword Master Mother (41 pages)
Xuan Qing wasn't in a hurry; he first pulled out and read through the rules of the Heavenly Pride Tournament.

Indeed, as Zhu Wen said, "one is responsible for one's own life and death," and Tianyi even signed a death warrant before taking the stage.

After confirming, Xuan Qing nodded and said:

“You’re right. It was his own choice, and he should be prepared to die.”

Zhu Wen smiled and shrugged:

"I can only say that my skills are inferior. I just wonder who was it that gossiped about me to you, Master? It seems they didn't say anything good about me?"

Zhu Wen practically made it clear that she wanted Xuan Qing to reveal the name of the person who had complained so she could come and settle accounts.

Xuanqing wasn't stupid; he naturally understood.

He was silent for a few seconds, as if he was thinking, or perhaps he was embarrassed.

"...I will handle it."

Xuan Qing recalled how the Second Elder had complained to him, and he was indeed somewhat displeased.

He was obsessed with practicing swordsmanship and indifferent to matters of the outside world.

Just like how the Sword Pavilion would entrust the affairs of the Eastern Continent to its affiliated sects.

He would also delegate his tasks to the elders.

Among these elders, the Second Elder is the most capable and has the most responsibilities.

Correspondingly, the more power he wielded, the more he essentially became his deputy within the Sword Pavilion.

Xuanqing used to believe everything the Second Elder said.

Of course, this kind of trust is more about being too lazy to investigate than trusting the other person's character and ability.

Xuanqing's reluctance to delve deeper doesn't mean he's indifferent to others treating him like a fool.

In particular, the Second Elder's words, which were truncated and avoided the main points.

Looking back now, I realize I wasn't treating Xuanqing like a fool anymore, but rather as a swordsman.

Xuanqing was very unhappy.

If they weren't in the wrong place right now, he would have already gone back to settle accounts.

Therefore, Xuanqing could understand Zhu Wen's unhappiness very well, and after thinking for a moment, he said seriously:
"I will handle this properly and give you a satisfactory answer."

Zhu Wen asked a question lightly:
"kill him?"

Xuanqing felt there was nothing wrong with it:

"Then kill him."

In just a few words, the two decided the fate of a powerful cultivator at the Mahayana stage.

The surrounding area was completely silent; no one dared to even breathe loudly.

With four top experts, including Zhu Wen, watching over the upcoming finals, no one dared to act recklessly.

Everyone abandoned those underhanded tricks and adopted completely open and aboveboard methods.

They practically have "Look at me, big shot" written all over their faces.

Zhu Wen rested his chin on his hand, looking somewhat bored.

She had just wanted to leave, but Xuanqing's arrival delayed her plans.

There was no other way but to stay and watch a little longer.

Zhu Wen overestimated his patience and was on the verge of giving up...

Lu Zhuangzhuang has entered the arena.

Her weapon was also a sword, a very beautiful ice crystal sword.

Very few people use ice crystals as swords, but in Lu Zhuangzhuang's hands, she wields the sword beautifully.

Xuan Qing, who had been indifferent, suddenly looked at Lu Zhuangzhuang and raised an eyebrow in surprise:

"He's actually born with sword bones?"

He saw through Lu Zhuangzhuang's true nature at a glance.

Zhu Wen followed and looked over:

"Is she born with a sword-like talent? That's quite impressive."

The innate sword bone, which only appears once in a billion people, seemed to be nothing special in their eyes.

Jing Lingchun's reaction was even stronger than theirs:
"This young girl belongs to the Lu family of Xizhou..."

Yuan Han replied:

"Yes, she's the daughter of a city lord under my command, I think her name is Lu Zhuangzhuang."

The moment he looked away, he met Zhu Wen's probing gaze.

Zhu Wenchao gave him a polite smile.

Yuan Han fell silent unexpectedly.

Below the stage, Lu Zhuangzhuang had already made her move.

She kept a low profile in the first few rounds, but it wasn't until the second match of the finals that she truly showed her talent.

As for Lu Zhuangzhuang's opponents, they were completely powerless to resist and could only passively take the beating.

It's clear that Lu Zhuangzhuang is quite kind, completely different from the ruthless Chu Yi.

She cornered her opponent and then stopped short of attacking:

"Accepted."

She sheathed her sword, lowered her head, and took a half-step back, no longer being aggressive.

Her opponent was probably prepared, and got up dejectedly, without arguing, and simply admitted defeat.

And so, Lu Zhuangzhuang qualified for the next round.

Zhu Wen thought of something and asked:
"There are twenty-five people now, doesn't that mean someone will get a bye next time?"

Jing Lingchun explained patiently:

"The next final will be different. This year, we're going to try something different and go into a secret realm for training."

Zhu Wen became interested:

"Is the training in the secret realm something that can be done later?"

Jing Lingchun nodded:

"You want to come and see?"

Zhu Wen replied with two words:
"Of course!"

Xuanqing and Yuanhan glanced in her direction.

A day later, Zhu Wenzhen arrived at the scene again.

Even the onlookers were impressed, saying that Zhu Wen was really good to that first-year student.

He never misses a final match, and today was no exception.

only……

Why did the other three, besides Zhu Wen, all come?
Jing Lingchun did not use a projector; he attended in person.

It is said that Xuan Qing, the master of the Sword Pavilion, who cares nothing about anything except his sword, has arrived.

Yuan Han, who usually stayed cooped up in the Nine Dragons Divine Pavilion, also came to join in the fun.

As if they had planned it together, they all arrived at the venue today.

Is it really just because you find it interesting?

Everyone was puzzled.

The third round of the finals has begun.

Because Jing Lingchun was present, he personally opened the secret realm.

"This is a mysterious little secret place that I discovered by chance some time ago. There is nothing particularly dangerous inside, which is perfect for children of this age to experience."

Jing Lingchun is said to be very old, having been the ruler of the Eastern Continent for thousands of years. Before that, no one knew his origins, so saying that he is a child is not considered outrageous.

Only the first-year student, somewhat disdainful of such a title, was the first to jump into the opened secret realm gate.

The referee was dumbfounded:

"...Wait...wait! They haven't told us about the mission yet!"

Since it's a trial in a secret realm, it's not as simple as just deciding who wins and who loses.

You must complete the mission and find something in the secret realm.

During this process, players can prevent each other from completing their own tasks, or steal other players' task items to complete their own tasks.

It can be said that the competition and brutality are extremely intense, comparable to the arena when Zhu Wen first arrived in this world.

but.

Even in a real arena, Chu Yi wasn't afraid of anything.

Even among a group of wild beasts, he was the fiercest one.

Once inside the secret realm, no one tried to steal his belongings.

Everyone wants to avoid the first-year students, hoping that the first-year students won't come and take away their spot.

With this in mind, it seems that the first-year students' victory is a foregone conclusion.

However, at this critical juncture, something unexpected happened.

The vast secret realm suddenly trembled.

The water mirror outside is swaying.

The world inside was shaking violently.

"What happened!"
