The match continued, now it was the turn of the 2nd grade disciples to show their abilities.
The difference in ability from grade 2 and 3 is clearly visible, grade 2 has better training than grade 3 which contains freshly joined students.
When Lan Meili arrived, the girl climbed into the arena with a wooden sword in her hand. Because it was only a practice match, it was forbidden to use real weapons.
Lan Meili picked up the horses, as the referee gave the girl a cue to attack immediately and swung her wooden sword.
Lan Meili's attacks were quick and sharp, the girl trying to keep her opponent from having a chance to strike back.
The truck!
Lan Meili's wooden sword was successfully restrained by her opponent, in one swing Lan Meili managed to be pushed back several steps.
“Lan Meili ... Your ability is not bad,” said a girl who became an opponent of Lan Meili.
Lan Meili bit her lower lip, before her at the moment was Gu Xia, one of the most powerful disciples in the second grade. Although Lan Meili was strong, but when compared to Gu Xia, Lan Meili was far below the girl in terms of martial arts.
Gu Xia smiled slantingly and unsheathed his wooden sword, the girl dashed towards Lan Meili and swung her sword quickly.
Things turned around so quickly, now Lan Meili had difficulty resisting any attacks launched by Gu Xia.
“Akh!”
Lan Meili was pushed down after enduring Gu Xia's attack, her hands trembling with pain after withstanding the deep exertion of Gu Xia. However, Lan Meili did not give up, she immediately got up and went back to readying the horses.
Gu Xia smiled obliquely, it felt so satisfied to see Lan Meili having a hard time dealing with her.
Lan Meili channeled a deep energy into her wooden sword, the girl focused all her profound energy into the sword she had in her hand.
Gu Xia raised his eyebrows, he recognized the horses done by Lan Meili as he had also learned the same technique.
The Summer Fairy Dance, one of the four Fairy Dance Techniques. The Summer Fairy Dance itself is divided into five movements.
The Fairy Dance Technique was a sword technique that was taught when a disciple of the Fairy Mountain Sect rose to become a 2nd grade disciple.
Gu Xia himself had already studied the entire movement of the Summer Fairy Dance, the girl was still in the process of refining for the technique.
Lan Meili swung her wooden sword quickly, her movements were sharp and directly aimed at Gu Xia's neck. However, Gu Xia responded quickly and resisted the attack even though he was slightly pushed away by the power generated by Lan Meili.
Lan Meili's attack did not stop there, the girl turned around and pointed her sword at the other side of the neck.
“Don't underestimate me!” whispered Lan Meili annoyed.
All this time somehow Gu Xia always looking for trouble with him, whereas in Lan Meili's memory never once he offended Gu Xia.
Lan Meili originally admired Gu Xia enough for his abilities, but after realizing Gu Xia's hatred towards her, Lan Meili lost her admiration just like that.
Lan Meili's attacks continued, the girl trying to maintain her movements would do nothing wrong.
“After your position!”
Gu Xia fended off Lan Meili's attack, then made the same move as Lan Meili, even much better.
“You're way below me!”
“Akhh!”
Lan Meili was thrown out of the arena after resisting Gu Xia's attack, Lan Meili's wooden sword even experienced a crack in the intense power released by Gu Xia.
Gu Xia came out victorious, leaving Lan Meili with a hateful look.
On the other hand Weiruo smiled faintly at how hard Lan Meili was trying to attack Gu Xia, even though the girl ended up losing.
Lan Meili and Gu Xia's skills had a difference that was seen so clearly in Weiruo's eyes, but Weiruo admitted Lan Meili worked hard to beat Gu Xia back at the start of the match.
“... The turtle stealth is very strong.”
“Luckily I've left Turong City.”
Weiruo glanced at the invited guest next to him, the conversation of the group of merchants sounded quite clear in his ears.
There was a great fight in Turong City, the Imperial Capital of Huangjin a week ago, caused by the feud of a group of warriors and a demon.
There was a lot of damage left from the fight. A group of warriors were secured, but the turtle demon that attacked them disappeared so the security forces had trouble finding it. That was what Weiruo was with from those merchants.
“Holy Animals? But why would they make such a mess?” whispered Da Feng who was also eavesdropping on the conversation of those merchants.
“Entah.”
Weiruo returned to see the match still continuing, although once in a while the girl eavesdropped on the merchants beside her.
The match continued, the longer it became more tense because the students who competed would get stronger.
The match finally ended when the sun sank, Weiruo invited Da Feng to immediately return to the inn.
“N-Miss Ruo!”
Lan Meili ran after Weiruo who was about to exit the gate of the sect, who was summoned to stop immediately and wait for Lan Meili to arrive before her.
“What's up?” ask Weiruo.
“I-it .. sorry to disappoint you,” said Lan Meili a little embarrassed.
“Hire about what?”
“You've taken the time to see my match, but I failed and disappointed Miss,” explained Lan Meili.
Weiruo smiled slightly and patted Lan Meili's shoulder slowly, surprising the girl.
“It's okay, you've tried hard. Maybe ... You should be more sure of your sword. That's my only advice.”
Lan Meili daydreamed for a moment after hearing the remark, immediately she nodded after realizing the meaning of Weiruo's words.
“I'll be leaving tomorrow morning, take care of yourself and your twin sister.”
“Good! Ah that ... if I want to meet you .. how do I contact Miss?” lan Meili asked somewhat doubtfully.
“Come to Zhongxin City, then head to the Medicine Hall and meet a person named Yu Shuyan, he will arrange our meeting.”
“Alright, I understand. Be careful on the road.” Lan Meili bowed as a farewell greeting.
“Sure, take good care of yourself. Then ... don't be too polite to me.”
Weiruo walked away from Lan Meili at the gate of the sect, Lan Meili looked delighted after meeting Weiruo.
“Look, he did not stop smiling,” whispered Da Feng after looking briefly at the still loyal Lan Meili in front of the sect gate looking at Weiruo from a distance.
“Do not like that, let's go back!” Weiruo withdrew Da Feng's hand for the young man to walk faster and stopped looking at Lan Meili.
