"Xiao Lin, who do you think would win, Senior Sister Huo Lian or Ruo Nan?" Niu Man asked. Despite his burly appearance, he was not as rough as he seemed. At that moment, he wanted to hear Liu Yu's opinion about the Junior Brother he had brought along. 0
 
"I don't deny it," Lin Xianglin replied. He believed Ruo Nan would win, after all, Ruo Nan was the leader of their generation, a true genius. There was something unspoken in his thoughts; even someone who dressed like a woman could not help but be captivated by Ruo Nan's beauty, which showed her charm among the Outer Court disciples. 0
 
Liu Yu had a completely different view and believed that Senior Sister Huo Lian would win. He explained that Ruo Nan had already fought four consecutive battles, and the last two had taken a long time. Even if Ruo Nan had broken through to the Golden Core Stage, the consumption of spiritual energy was significant, and one’s mental state could not recover quickly in such a short time. 0
 
Ding You also expressed his belief that Ruo Nan would win due to momentum. Ruo Nan carried the confidence of having won four matches in a row; such a winning streak often allowed a cultivator to unleash twelve times their usual strength, which was a crucial factor. 0
 
What did that Junior Brother think of the current situation? 0
 
Gu Xiao smiled and shook his head, saying nothing. It was clear that both sides were evenly matched as the three had analyzed. However, if the battle continued into the afternoon, Ruo Nan would likely have no trump cards left. Gu Bian did not believe that Huo Lian would not prepare some countermeasures against Ruo Nan's techniques; simply relying on brute force would not suffice. 0
 
So while it appeared they were fighting fiercely on the surface, Bu Luo still felt they were merely testing each other. The moment they revealed their true strengths would determine the victor. 0
 
But Niu Man thought differently; perhaps he saw something deeper within Minghong that led him to say so. The other three clearly regarded Gu as someone who needed thorough explanations. The Junior Brother patiently explained the intricacies of their techniques to Gu You, who found it amusing but did not express any frustration. Instead, he nodded humbly and listened to their discussions. 0
 
"I see it this way, Junior Brother," Lin Xianglin said. "Although Ruo Nan's Earth Python is on the defensive, Earth Attribute spiritual energy naturally counters Wind Attribute attacks. Moreover, Ruo Nan's Earth Python Whip is of significantly higher quality than Senior Sister Huo Lian's Fengming Sword." He continued with his analysis. 0
 
Just as Lin Xianglin finished speaking, Ruo Nan launched a counterattack with a spell: Meteor Strike. It smashed directly into the center of the whirlwind and shattered Huo Lian's offensive. However, the Earth Python missed its target and instead struck at Huo Lian's Yongxuan stance, while the Real Person had already approached Ruo Nan. 0
 
Taking advantage of Ruo Nan's momentary distraction, Huo Lian executed a Small Teleportation Technique and appeared right beside Ruo Nan, thrusting her Fengming Sword directly at her. 0
 
 
Reluctantly, Ruo Nan wielded her whip defensively, attempting to ensnare Huo Lian with the long whip. 0
 
However, Huo Lian was not one to easily relinquish the hard-won opportunity to engage up close. With a swift motion, she pointed her leg skyward and unleashed a Small Lightning Technique aimed directly at Ruo Nan. 0
 
Not one to back down, Ruo Nan retaliated with a Meteor Strike aimed straight at her own face. If Huo Lian had taken even half a step forward, the meteor would have crashed down on her. 0
 
Yet Huo Lian clearly showed no signs of retreat; the Fengming Sword was gathering flames, the wind fueling the fire. The fierce blaze engulfed the Fengming Sword, its orange-red flames flickering with sharp sword light, cleaving the one-meter-wide meteor in two. At that moment, Ruo Nan had also distanced herself from Huo Lian, creating space between them. 0
 
The battle continued, and the commentary persisted as well. 0
 
Huo Lian's Small Teleportation Technique was nothing short of remarkable. "I don't deny it," Liu Yu remarked as he watched. If it had been anyone else, they would have likely been defeated by now. 0
 
He couldn't see it clearly; Ruo Nan's earlier Meteor Strike had nearly included herself in its path. How many could achieve such precision? He certainly hadn't seen anyone do it before. Ding You praised Ruo Nan's performance with admiration. 0
 
"What do you think, Junior Brother?" Niu Man asked once more. 0
 
Gu shook his head, a hint of a smile on his face as he replied, "It's quite clear. At least Ruo Nan has the advantage." 0
 
"Junior Brother doesn't understand and shouldn't speak out of turn," Liu Yu said, looking at Gu in surprise at the Junior Brother's reckless words. In his eyes, it wasn't like that at all; he wanted to observe carefully before speaking. Huo Lian had been relentlessly attacking while Ruo Nan remained on the defensive. 0
 
A prolonged assault without success could not last forever, Gu pointed toward the Arena and said slowly. 0
 
Though Huo Lian seemed to be pressing Ruo Nan hard in their fight, it was indeed as Gu described: their battle resembled two armies misaligned—one defending a city while the other sought to conquer it. The side launching an aggressive attack relied on momentum but risked exhaustion. 0
 
 
At this moment, Ruo Nan launched a relentless assault. If her momentum faltered, the terrifying signs of defeat would soon emerge, and that would be Nuo Ran's opportunity to counterattack. 0
 
The two exchanged a miscast spell; the Mini Tornado Technique collided with the Stone Wall Technique. Immediately after, Ruo Nan closed the distance, and Tian Zai unleashed a bolt of lightning aimed directly at Ruo Nan. 0
 
Ruo Nan deftly manipulated the stone wall in front of her to block the lightning that followed the Mini Tornado. She swung her whip in response, knowing that it was time to determine the victor. 0
 
Huo Lian swung her long whip, summoning the Earth Python once more. Meanwhile, the hurricane within the Fengming Sword began to coalesce again. Bu Luo had unleashed a powerful tornado, and a nearly translucent phoenix appeared in the sky. The Fengming Sword, also known as the Phoenix Cry Sword, embodied its true essence, which was also the source of Huo Lian's confidence to challenge Ruo Nan. 0
