Blue Card Starry Sky

Chapter 57 Regret
Before he could win the first move, Yu Jiachen launched another lightning strike, giving Hai Shiqi no chance to breathe. The lightning attacks came incessantly, leaving Hai Shiqi unable to dodge and giving him another brutal beating from Yu Jiachen. Although the injuries were not serious, they infuriated him! Hai Shiqi forcefully mobilized all his energy, determined to retaliate against Yu Jiachen.

Thump, thump, thump! The water skill unleashed a devastating attack. The power of a seventh-tier expert was no joke. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! The impact blades crashed into Yu Jiachen like a raging flood. There was no chance of escape. The screen was filled with crystal critical damage, crackling and popping. Yu Jiachen was stunned and disoriented by the critical hits. Unable to withstand this fatal blow, he retreated several meters before slowly coming to a stop.

It wasn't over yet. Haishiqi unleashed its full power with a vortex attack, spinning rapidly like a tornado, creating a massive column of water that swept Yu Jiachen into it, lifting him higher and higher into the air. The surging blades relentlessly lashed at him, leaving him no chance to retaliate. He was tossed about by the current, rising to a great height before suddenly plummeting towards the ground.

With a series of "smacks," Yu Jiachen was slammed to the ground, unable to move, clearly suffering severe injuries. The Feather Clan members were generally shorter, a disadvantage for them. It was clear that Yu Jiachen's defeat was imminent.

With a "boom," Yu Jiachen broke through again. His entire body was now shimmering with golden light, truly showing that he became stronger and more resilient with each setback, standing once more on the arena. Yu Jiachen's wings turned into five colors, and lightning crackled around his body, making his wings appear hazy and indistinct.

With a series of "whoosh" sounds, Yu Jiachen charged out like lightning, beams of light flashing past. Hai Shiqi was caught off guard and swept away, hurtling towards the arena railing. In the blink of an eye, Hai Shiqi was sent flying hundreds of meters away, standing there in astonishment, completely unaware of what had happened and already eliminated. Yu Jiachen unleashed another burst of power, using the Feather Clan's ultimate skill to eliminate Hai Shiqi directly. Yu Jiachen emerged victorious.

Haishiqi was filled with regret, having carelessly lost a crucial point! Following Yu Jiajie's withdrawal, the third match was between the Orc Yabuji, who had a bye, and the defeated Haishiqi. Haishiqi, still resentful of his defeat to Yu Jiachen, was now fired up against Yabuji, determined to regain his lost face.

From the moment they entered the arena, Haishiqi gave Yabuji no chance, launching a relentless offensive, one attack after another, leaving him no opportunity to breathe. Yabuji was forced to retreat step by step, unable to retaliate. Yabuji's massive physique made Haishiqi stagger and stagger, seemingly on the verge of death. The disparity in strength between the two was too great; Yabuji was no match for Haishiqi. He lacked Yu Jiachen's perseverance, his explosive power after a near-death experience, and he simply didn't possess the skills to completely counter Haishiqi's elemental attacks. Within fifteen minutes, he was brutally defeated.

The final three were Hai Shiqi, Yu Jiachen, and Mo Tianxing. However, don't get too excited yet, as the three of them did not get to see the city lord's daughter. Instead, they were told that they would have to compete with the princess in person another day and to go back and wait for news.

The defeated elites from various tribes who had come with them were also deeply disappointed. They had not been able to see the city lord's daughter, this beautiful woman, the princess whom all tribes had risked their lives to win over. They could only leave in disappointment and return home.

……

Lan Yu and his group returned to their new shop in the underwater city. With the competition over, they had to move out of the VIP guesthouse. Lan Yu told Lan Tian about the competition, but Lan Tian was a little disappointed. He hadn't even seen anyone. He had come all the way to the city lord's mansion but hadn't even had the chance to meet the princess. He wondered how the other three were doing and who would become the son-in-law of the city. However, Lan Yu didn't have a good impression of any of the three, so he didn't take it to heart. Afterwards, he and Lan Tian got busy in the shop, each contributing their efforts to make their new business thrive.

Lan Tian had his own room, and after finishing his work, he went back to rest and cultivate. He wasn't particularly concerned about the competition in the imperial city today where Lan Yu and the others were recruiting sons-in-law. He knew his two older brothers neither had the fate nor the ability. He appreciated their intention to come and train, but the most important thing was to buy a property here, have a place to stay, and have his own little plot of land! Moreover, Lan Tian discovered that business here would be good, and he had found a way to make money. He would leave everything to Uncle Lei, who would take care of it all. He would stay here for a while to see the differences here and how the cultivation methods differed.

Some time later, it was said that the three had quietly returned to their ancestral lands, and no one knew who had become the city lord's son-in-law. The city lord did not make any public announcement, and the matter was dropped. No one discussed the marriage proposal again. Things continued to move forward, and everything returned to normal. Lan Tian and the others resumed their lives.

Rumors are circulating in the teahouses of the Underwater City that the three promising young men seeking husbands were thoroughly thrashed by the princess. None of them could defeat her, and they all returned to their ancestral lands in disheveled state to heal and cultivate. Especially Mo Tianxing, who was carried out of the city lord's mansion after being beaten. It's said the princess disliked his arrogance and gave him a severe lesson to teach him a lesson. None of the three were the princess's type, so she kicked them all out of the capital. They were no match for her; perhaps she already had someone she loved, hence her ruthless treatment of the three, leaving no room for retreat. This is the princess of the Underwater City.

Just who is this city lord's daughter? She's so powerful; even Mo Tianxing isn't her match. Lan Tian was stunned upon hearing this news. This princess is no ordinary person; she's ruthless. To be able to severely injure Mo Tianxing, her cultivation level must be at least eighth rank, even stronger than his own. It seems he was right not to go; he avoided being beaten up. Looking back, he was incredibly lucky! However, Lan Tian now felt a sense of awe for this woman—the princess of this underwater city. He felt a desire to make a new friend and get to know this remarkable woman. Throughout his journey, Lan Tian had never seen a woman cultivate to such a high level. Conversely, the city lord's martial arts level must be quite high to raise such a powerful daughter. It seems this underwater city is not simple; it has many high-level experts. He should be careful here and not offend them. It's best to just run his shop peacefully. It's better to avoid trouble; it's someone else's territory, so he should always keep to his own boundaries.
