Become Eternals

The humiliation!

The wooden sword of the skinny young man pulsed with a strange energy, darting through the air with a prismatic beam, directly towards Bai Xiaochun. However, before even being able to get close, a ping sound rang out from the outside of Bai Xiaochun's thick meter-and-half shield as the wooden sword bounced off him.

As soon as Bai Xiaochun's protective shield flickered, his eyes glittered, and he heaved a sigh of relief. Clearing his throat, he was actually just sitting cross-legged.

The audience exchanged confused looks. They were not so sure what to say in response to Bai Xiaochun and his extreme level of defense. They had seen people who were focused on defense before, but.

As for his opponent, the young man's face first turned red, then turned pale. Gritting his teeth, he roared, sending his flying sword towards the glowing shield, increasing his strength even as it shot through the air.

A ping sound rang out as the flying sword flew again and again, but each time, the sword was sent spinning away. Finally, the pale-faced young man's spiritual energy was more than half drained, and a look of despair surfaced on his face.

He had fought in duels for many years, but this was the first time he had met an opponent who was hiding like a turtle inside a shell. But he is not giving up. He had entered the competition with the aim of taking 3rd place. Staring at Bai Xiaochun with red eyes, he angrily roared, “Get out from behind that shield!”

Bai Xiaochun was completely unafraid by this young man, so he had no qualms about staying behind the shield and shouted, “If you are good enough, why don't you go inside!”

Strange expressions appeared on the faces of everyone in the audience as they looked at Bai Xiaochun, unsure whether to laugh or cry. The skinny young man was so angry that a blue vein appeared on his forehead as he clenched his jaw. Finally, he bit his tongue and vomited a mouthful of blood. When it landed on his wooden sword, everything changed to the color of blood.

Discussions broke out directly among the spectators.

“Blood Spirit Magic!”

“For him to use that magic technique shows that he has really been pushed into madness!”

The blood-colored wooden sword moved faster than before, and released a pressure of double. A blood-colored light spread out in all directions as it shot towards Bai Xiaochun.

An explosion rang out as the wooden sword pierced through the full three inches into the shield. A rumble could be heard as it tried to penetrate further, but failed. In fact, due to too much manpower being deployed, cracks began to spread throughout the sword.

A moment later, an explosion rang out as the entire wooden sword shattered into pieces, which slowly floated to the ground.

The skinny young man's eyes widened, and blood spurted from his mouth. His spiritual energy was greatly drained, his magical items were destroyed, and he was so enraged that he just fainted.

As Li Qinghou watched the scene play out, his face grew increasingly unsightly. Chuckling wryly, Elder Sun stepped forward, gesturing for people to come carry the skinny young man away, and then declared Bai Xiaochun the victor.

“Ah, she let me win!” Bai Xiaochun said as the shield lights around him faded away. Looking very serious, he puffed out his chest and cupped his hands behind his back, looking like a Chosen one. As for the skinny young man, as he was taken away, he seemed to hear Bai Xiaochun's words, regained his senses, coughed up another mouthful of blood, and then fainted again.

Clearing his throat, Bai Xiaochun turned to Elder Sun and clasped his hands. Then he flicked his sleeve and walked out of the arena.

The Outer Sect disciples who had come to watch the competition took everything quite well. At best, their faces looked strange. As for the contestants, they looked at Bai Xiaochun with an extremely unsightly expression.

That is especially true for people who have won their respective matches. When they compared the current condition of the skinny youth to Bai Xiaochun, they could not help but feel the need to be vigilant.

The competition continued, and soon the rest of the match was over. Of the initial twenty participants, half had been eliminated to produce the current top 10.

That included Du Lingfei, Chen Zi’ang, and Bai Xiaochun, who stood there, his chin bulging out, looking around at his top 10 competitors. Inwardly, he said, “All I have to do is win one more game and then I will make it!”

Seeing that hope was in front of him, he felt extremely excited.

Elder Sun looked at the ten contestants, his gaze fixed on Bai Xiaochun for a moment before saying, The top “5 will now be chosen. Please, ten of you step forward to pick your marbles. ”

This time, Bai Xiaochun rushed to be the first, and took out a marble with the number two written on it. After which, he immediately turned around to study his fellow competitors.

It didn't take long for everyone to draw marbles, after which Elder Sun announced that the first two fighters would start their match. Bai Xiaochun joined forces with a burly and muscular man who, upon seeing who he was fighting against, began to laugh out loud.

“Other people may be afraid of your defense, but I don't care at all about them. I'm also good at defense, so let's wait and see which one of us can last longer! ” While laughing, the man slapped his handbag to make a shield. After giving him spiritual energy, the shield grew larger and began to emit a yellow light that surrounded the man.

But the man is not finished. Roaring, his flesh and muscles enlarged, and he even grew several inches taller. The whole scene was quite shocking.

“I don't believe in Body Forging magic!”

“That little shield looks familiar. Don't tell me it's Dawnlight Shield! It requires 9,000 merit points! ” Everyone was shocked, and for Bai Xiaochun, his brows furrowed.

When Elder Sun saw what was going on, he nodded his head slightly, his eyes shining with an expression of praise. Turning to Li Qinghou, he said, “This child is Li Shan, fifth level Qi Condensation. He would be a difficult opponent, as he was born with Divine power, coupled with Body Forging magic. Not only was he extremely strong, he also excelled in defense. ”

Li Qinghou nodded slightly, then looked at Bai Xiaochun.

Bai Xiaochun was studying the burly man's transformation body, and the shield he had. He recognized the shield from his visit to the treasure Pavilion, and although he was unsure exactly how many merit points to pay, his frown deepened.

Everyone who watched the race seemed very interested to know what was coming, especially the other students in the competition, who were clearly happy to laugh at the misfortune of others.

The white student was really unlucky.

“Well, he was very lucky before, that's all. Now that he was facing such a powerful opponent like this, he would naturally be defeated back to where he was. ”

As the audience discussed his progress, the burly man smiled viciously and then started to take a quick step towards Bai Xiaochun.

“There is nothing you can do. I defeated the last disciple I fought without even taking out a weapon. My fist is the strongest magic technique I have! ”

The man sped up, causing the wind to blow out. As he approached, Bai Xiaochun's eyes glittered and he suddenly waved his finger, causing his little wooden sword to fly out of his bag.

Without the slightest pause, it darted in front of Bai Xiaochun towards the burly man.

The moment it slashed towards him, sword qi was built for tens of meters around the sword, causing rumbling sounds to reverberate.

The burly man's face fell, and his scalp tingled so hard it felt like it was about to explode. His eyes widened as an intense crisis sensation swept over him. Without any hesitation, he retreated. Roaring, he waved both hands, sending his shield to block the sword.

An explosion rang out as the wooden sword and small shield struck each other. However, the shield did nothing even to slow down his wooden sword. It exploded apart, and the wooden sword continued towards the burly man.

The man's face was filled with shock; even if he was able to dodge faster, it was useless. The flying sword struck him in the blink of an eye, causing an ice-cold wind to hit his face.

I concede! he shouted without hesitation, his voice rising by several octaves as he fell to the ground.

Bai Xiaochun blinked, also somewhat surprised by the wooden sword. Before, he had only trained with it, and had no idea it was so powerful. And that was even before he started utilizing Lightness-in-Heaviness.

After looking up while thinking for a moment, he stuck out his jaw, folded his hands back, and looked at the burly man coldly.

The man's face was pale white, yet he still did not want to retreat. Crawling to his feet, he glared at Bai Xiaochun and said, “Using the power of magical items does not count as victory! I don't accept this as a defeat! ”

With that, the man turned around and walked out of the arena.

Elder Sun looked at Bai Xiaochun, also dumbfounded by the power of the wooden sword. However, he did not say anything other than to announce that Bai Xiaochun was the winner.

“Hahaha,” Bai Xiaochun laughed to himself. “In the next fight I will give up immediately. I became a cultivator to live forever, didn't I? All these murders and fights are too barbaric. That was not the way Bai Xiaochun did things. ” Bai Xiaochun left the arena, feeling great for having met Li Qinghou's requirements to enter the top 5.

Li Qinghou's eyes were also fixed on Bai Xiaochun. Although everyone had focused on how incredible the flying sword was, Li Qinghou had not paid any attention to it at all. He had witnessed the skill and ease with which Bai Xiaochun used to control the flying sword.

Seeing that Bai Xiaochun had won another match, the crowd began to sigh emotionally.

“Ah, this guy must be rich, which is why he has such an incredible wooden sword. Hmph. If he had another weapon, he would definitely not win! ”

“Magic devices have nothing to do with your cultivation. First he used the talisman, then the sword. Too bad! He will eventually go bankrupt. ”

But the grumbling did not last long. The next battle is soon underway. Du Lingfei was fighting an opponent with an incredible cultivation base. It was a fierce fight, but Du Lingfei did not use his banner. Instead, he used a flying sword. They fought back and forth in a dazzling manner until suddenly, Du Lingfei's flying sword shot forward at incredible speed to appear right in front of his opponent.

Such speed far surpassed what ordinary disciples could control, sending the audience into an uproar when people realized what they were seeing.

“I don't trust Lightness-in-Heaviness!!”

“Du Lingfei has actually reached enlightenment at that stage..”.

“It's Light-in-Weight!” Deep within Elder Sun's eyes, a gleam of approval could be seen as he looked at Du Lingfei.

Li Qinghou also nodded.

Chen Zi’ang was surprised, and most people who managed to enter the top 10 had similar reactions. As for his opponent, he chuckled bitterly and clenched his hands to acknowledge.

Du Lingfei stood there in the arena, looking around proudly. Clasping hands towards Li Qinghou and Elder Sun, he left the arena.

The crowd is still in an uproar.

However, Bai Xiaochun was left standing there, blinking.

That level of speed was calculated as Lightness-in-Heaviness? thought surprised.

As Du Lingfei proudly left the arena, a hint of sweat was seen flowing down his face. Despite being in the great circle of the fifth level of Qi Condensation, the battle of two consecutive battles was quite draining his spiritual energy. That was especially the case in the battle just now, where his opponent had unusual fighting prowess. In the end, he was forced to unleash his Lightness-in-Heaviness magic, which was even more draining of his spiritual energy. That's how he got the win.

His goal was first place, and he knew that his next opponent would only be stronger. Since this particular sect competition was not set up so tightly, he would not have much time to rest before the next fight. Therefore, he immediately took out a medicinal pill, which he consumed, then closed his eyes and began to make use of the time to heal.

The top five now consisted of Bai Xiaochun and Du Lingfei, as well as Chen Zi’ang. In the end, there were two other youths, both of whom had deep cultivation bases at the fifth level of Qi Condensation.

Right now, everyone was in the process of turning their cultivation base around, making use of every opportunity to replenish spiritual energy.

Only Bai Xiaochun did not seem to exhaust spiritual energy at all. In fact, he was standing at the side while yawning. When everyone who was eliminated from the competition saw that, it made them pushed to defeat him.

Now that he had fulfilled Li Qinghou's request to enter the top 5, he was completely unconcerned with the rest of the competition.

Trying to suppress his boredom, he looked to the other top four competitors, especially Du Lingfei, pondering that if the speed he had just unleashed counted as Lightness-in-Heaviness, then he must be far, far away, far beyond that.

“It's a shame that he has such a deadly aura. Why is such a good girl so fond of fighting and killing? Don't tell me that all the girls who practice Immortal cultivation are freaks like this? Zhou Xinqi was extremely proud, and Hou Xiaomei was too moody. ” Bai Xiaochun shook his head. He was just about to turn away from Du Lingfei when he felt that he was looking at her. His eyes suddenly opened to look at her coldly.

As far as Du Lingfei was concerned, Bai Xiaochun was not even worth thinking about. After watching his first two battles, he argued that he had performed a lucky victory, which caused the scorn in his heart to grow stronger.

“Alright, you dare look at me, right?!” Bai Xiaochun immediately stopped the look away movement. Instead, his eyes widened as he stared back at Du Lingfei. The staring contest had nothing to do with fights and bloodshed, so from a young age, he had met quite a few people who could handle it.

Du Lingfei frowned. As for the admirers that were swarming behind him, they were extremely annoyed, and directed sharp gazes towards him.

However, seeing so many eyes staring at him, and considering that some of them were extremely ferocious, Bai Xiaochun cleared his throat. He only had two eyes, so how could he possibly fit in? “Well, they have numbers on their side, and besides, real men do not quarrel with women.”

With a roaring voice, he threw away his face.

Around that time, Elder Sun's voice sounded throughout the arena.

“Very good, all of you. The competition has gone very well so far. And now, we will continue to narrow down the competitors. Will the five of you step forward and choose the marbles. One of those marbles is a free pass to the top 3. ” With a smile, Elder Sun took out the bag again.

This time, Chen Zi’ang was the first. After pulling the marbles, he frowned; his marble had the number four written on it.

Next was Du Lingfei, who got the number two marble. The other two Outer Sect disciples got number one and three respectively.

Bai Xiaochun did not even need to draw marbles; the remaining marble was a free pass.

Bai Xiaochun's eyes twinkled, and he chuckled. He took his place outside the battle arena, arms folded, feeling completely relaxed as he prepared to watch Du Lingfei and the others. He didn't even plan to continue the competition, but now he didn't need to do anything and he was already in the top 3.

“Luck is a big part of strength!” he thought, feeling quite happy with himself.

That luck caused some onlookers to stare at him with even more bizarre expressions on their faces. Most of them could not bear to accept the situation, especially the other disciples who had been eliminated, whose hearts were filled with jealousy and envy.

“This guy is really shameless. All right, well, he used a magical item to get into the top five, but then he actually got a free pass to the top three! ”

“Betapa despicable. In fact, there had never been someone so despicable like this who had appeared in the competition. ”
