Tan Siyuan's victory, although somewhat unexpected for Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, was anticipated by Gu Ping. After all, having spent a considerable amount of time together, Gu Ping had a deeper understanding of Tan Siyuan. Coupled with the fact that Gu Ping had unreservedly imparted knowledge over the past few days, Tan Siyuan's progress surpassed Tenglan's expectations by far.
"Was that the Thousand Flowers and Hundreds of Blooms technique?"
Tenglan looked at Gu Ping with some confusion. He knew it must be a variation of the Thousand Flowers and Hundreds of Blooms, but he had never seen anyone wield such a widely known technique with such power. It had clearly transcended its original purpose and effectiveness.
Ah, it seemed to be a different application, one that appeared more deceptive.
Gu Ping nodded. Tan Siyuan's version of the Thousand Flowers and Hundreds of Blooms was indeed distinct from Gu Ping's. The difference lay in their personalities, which manifested in their respective styles.
Tan Siyuan's technique was all about entrapment, executed to perfection. In contrast, Gu Ping's approach was far more overwhelming; every strike aimed directly at Mistake's weaknesses and Coco's openings, instilling a profound sense of helplessness in the opponent.
There was a touch of illusion added in there—interesting. Did I teach that?
No, that was her own idea. I don't deny that I taught her.
While they conversed, Tan Siyuan had already propped her forehead on her hands at her seat, eagerly awaiting praise from everyone. However, when she noticed no one was complimenting her, she stole a glance and found that everyone's attention was focused on the rooftop.
What was going on?
Tan Siyuan felt a bit uneasy.
Li Mu Yun, ranked second on the Earth Ranking, and Mao Gai, ranked third—timing truly is everything.
Wen Tian explained with some excitement, reminding Tan Siyuan to observe the battle closely.
He remembered that Li Mu Yun had already reached Peak Foundation Establishment five years ago; surely Dong Lai had made some progress in that time.
Could Mao Gai catch up later? Although his ranking was not as high as Li Mu Yun's, it didn't necessarily mean that Mao Gai was inferior to Li Mu Yun.
Yuda Zhi and Hu Yang were discussing nearby. The two disciples seemed to have no intention of confronting Gu Ping at all. During the Outer Academy Martial Arts Exhibition, Gu Ping's heavy strikes had intimidated them to the point that they were afraid to engage with him.
The situation in the arena was as they described. Although Li Mu Yun was five years older than Mao Gai, it was clear to everyone present that Mao Gai held the advantage.
The test ended with a powerful hurricane technique from Li Mu Yun, after which both pulled back and took out their weapons: the Heavenly Thunder Staff and the Soaring Spear. Both artifacts were Eastern Grade Magical Artifacts. While they couldn't unleash their full power in this setting, their presence was still formidable.
Like thunder and fire from the heavens, they stirred the Spiritual Energy around the platform. Clouds gathered as Li Mu Yun raised his Heavenly Thunder Staff overhead to block Mao Gai's Soaring Spear. Then, a bolt of lightning descended from above, aiming to send Mao Gai off the platform.
Unexpectedly, Mao Gai smirked and released his weapon, pulling out an oil paper umbrella instead to shield himself from the roaring lightning above.
Not only did Li Mu Yun not anticipate this, but even the audience in Taitung were taken aback. The lightning from Nine Heavens could be blocked by such a small umbrella? It seemed to be some unknown treasure that had a significant restraining effect on lightning—at least it appeared so at that moment.
It was over.
The exclamation from Gao Hong came sincerely; it was evident that Mao Gai had come prepared. Those who had seen the Two Lists knew that Li Mu Yun was a lightning attribute cultivator, and it seemed that Mao Gai's oil paper umbrella was specifically designed to counter him. Although they were fellow disciples and Mao Gai's strength was inferior, Gao Hong couldn't help but admire Mao Gai's cunning. This match's outcome had been predetermined long ago.
With a decisive strike misinterpreted, Li Mu Yun already knew that he had little chance left. He swung the Heavenly Thunder Staff with all his might, propelling himself and Mao Gai apart, signaling that he had no intention of moving against him anymore.
I won. I did well. I feel fulfilled.
Li Mu Yun was not the grandson of Wang of Freedom, but he certainly had the courage to admit defeat. After all, the descendants of Wang of Freedom were numerous, and he, Li Mu Yun, had grown up under the influence of Han Xuan Golden Key.
Thank you for your guidance.
As the battle between the two came to an end, the second round of the Elimination Tournament was also nearing its conclusion. Everyone knew that after the Eastern Peak demonstration, there would be significant changes to the Two Lists. Everyone was eager to participate, as those who could have their names on the Two Lists were undoubtedly the elite of Tiandong.
After the second round concluded, only Dong Wangyu, Tan Siyuan, and Gao Gong remained in the academy. However, seeing Gao Gong's current state of exhaustion, it seemed unlikely that he would have the strength to participate in the initial round of competitions again.
