The sudden change in the situation caught everyone off guard, even Fang Yuan, the leader of the Xuan Lei Sect sitting in the stands, showed a hint of surprise. There were not many things that could astonish him.
Behind him, however, Elder Li and Elder Han both displayed a glimmer of delight amidst their astonishment.
In contrast to the excitement of the Outer Sect Disciples, the faces of the Inner Sect Disciples were grim. Only the four disciples who lost the match stood aside, their faces filled with shame. Although they should not bear all the responsibility, they had indeed embarrassed the Inner Sect.
"This generation of Outer Sect disciples is indeed impressive!"
At some point, the smile on Zhou Hanbin's face had faded, and his expression turned as dark as water. He did not expect that the Inner Sect would lose four members at once, completely derailing his plans.
While this did not affect their overall results, his longstanding pride made it hard for him to accept such a defeat!
Beside him, the Veiled Woman continued to stand quietly, her expression unreadable. The Indifferent Youth was stroking the scabbard of his sword, as if this long sword was everything to him; he was not even slightly distracted by the ongoing Competition.
Glancing at his two companions beside him, Zhou Hanbin showed no signs of surprise. He knew their personalities were like this; otherwise, such a large Inner Sect would not have allowed him to take charge alone. After pondering for a moment, Zhou Hanbin formed a plan in his mind. He gestured with his right hand, and two Inner Sect Disciples stepped forward.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother. Leave this to us," they said after hearing Zhou Hanbin's plan, nodding slightly and promising earnestly.
After instructing them, Zhao Ang walked over to the indifferent man and whispered a few words in his ear.
After listening to Zhou Hanbin, the man slowly raised his head and glanced at Sun Zhe, then looked at the flamboyant Zhao Ang in the arena. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly nodded.
Seeing him agree, Zhou Hanbin let out a gentle sigh of relief and turned to speak to the Veiled Woman. However, before he could say anything, she preemptively spoke up,
"You don't need to say much; I can handle my own affairs without anyone else meddling!"
After finishing, regardless of how Zhou Hanbin reacted, she directly walked towards one of the Arenas, where the first beauty of the Outer Sect, Shen Yan, was standing.
With a gentle step at the edge of the Arena, she suddenly soared into the air. Her white long dress swayed lightly in the wind, resembling a celestial maiden descending to earth, and she landed directly on the Arena, standing not far in front of Shen Yan.
"Did you just challenge me?"
Her lips parted slightly, and a cold voice emerged, exuding an air of arrogance. As a delicate woman, she did not regard ordinary disciples from the Outer Sect as worthy opponents. Even among those from the Inner Sect, she held them in little esteem. Although Shen Yan was exceptional in both qualification and appearance, in her eyes, she was still nothing remarkable.
Despite appearing gentle, Shen Yan possessed a strong inner resolve. Upon hearing the Veiled Woman's question, she felt no inferiority or fear; instead, it ignited her competitive spirit. She looked at the Veiled Woman without fear and replied with calm confidence,
"If Senior Sister is willing, please teach me a few moves."
…………
Watching the Veiled Woman assertively take to the Arena, a cold glint flashed in Zhou Hanbin's eyes but quickly vanished. He lightly nodded to two Inner Sect Disciples behind him. The two immediately understood and rushed towards different Arenas, choosing their opponents to be Sun and Qian Haiyang.
Sun and Qian Haiyang had already reached peak Five Stars strength and were unafraid of ordinary Inner Sect Disciples. However, upon seeing these two opponents, they both revealed faint smiles tinged with helplessness in their eyes because both had indeed reached the realm of Six-Star Thunder Users.
Five Stars against Six Stars—if there were no surprises, the outcome was obvious.
"Why is it that no one has come to challenge This Young Master here? Do you all look down on This Young Master..." As he watched the Veiled Woman challenge Shen Yan while others attended to Sun and Qian Haiyang, Zhao Dasha couldn't help but feel displeased that no one came for him. He shouted loudly in frustration.
"Shut up!"
A cold voice suddenly rang in Zhao Ang's ears, and the chilling sensation made him shiver involuntarily. In that moment, Zhao Ang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, a bone-deep chill coursing through him. When he looked up, he found that the indifferent man beside Zhou Hanbin had somehow already stepped onto the Arena, and he hadn’t sensed it at all.
Seeing this person standing opposite him, Zhao Ang felt a sense of coldness for the first time. Whether facing the proud Veiled Woman or the formidable Zhou Hanbin, Zhao Ang had never felt fear. Yet, in front of this man, he felt as if he were confronting a Corpse.
"Damn it, is this even a person..." As he saw that extremely indifferent gaze, the feeling in Zhao Ang's heart intensified, as if he were truly facing not a human being but a Corpse that disregarded life.
...
"How about it, Senior Brother Sun? Do you dare to exchange a few moves with your senior brother?"
Just as Sun Zhe furrowed his brow, Zhou Hanbin suddenly stepped in front of him and asked with a smile, his eyes filled with obvious provocation.
Sun Zhe glanced at Zhou Hanbin lightly; a flash of anger crossed his eyes but was quickly suppressed. His expression remained unchanged as he replied nonchalantly, "If Senior Brother has nothing better to do right now, why not watch the Competition? If we lose a few more matches because of your absence, it might not be good..."
Sun Zhe's response seemed to be within Zhou Hanbin's expectations. After hearing it, his expression showed no change. He casually tugged at his right sleeve with his left hand and looked around as if casually saying, "I have a cousin named Zhou Yuanxin; I heard he once had some issues with Senior Brother Sun..."
Sun Zhe's gaze sharpened, and two beams of cold light shot from his eyes. The hatred from when Zhou Yuanxin had interfered and severely injured him surged back to his mind.
The Zhou Family!
Sun Zhe suddenly remembered that Zhou Yuanxin once mentioned he had a brother in the Inner Sect of the Xuan Lei Sect. It seems that this person is none other than Zhou Hanbin, who stands before him now.
"Zhou Hanbin is able to become a core disciple of the Inner Sect, and most Inner Sect Disciples listen to him. My master back then wouldn't have advised me against bringing this up if it weren't for the Zhou family's significant influence in the Inner Sect of the Xuan Lei Sect..."
Although Sun Zhe appeared to be only in his twenties, his mental acuity and depth were far beyond that of his peers. Just from a few words from Zhou Hanbin, he quickly deduced the general situation of the Zhou family.
"If Senior Brother is willing to teach, I am eager to learn!" Sun Zhe said with a glint in his eyes, emphasizing each word.
Even though he already knew the Zhou family was powerful and that the best choice would be to reconcile with Zhou Hanbin, Sun Zhe looked down on such an option. He was not the kind of person who would shy away from confrontation!
Yes, he must seek revenge; even more so, he must repay grievances!
"Haha... good! Since that's the case, I will teach you a couple of moves!"
Zhou Hanbin laughed heartily, his eyes filled with cold amusement.
