Sima You Yue returned to her room, and not long later, Huan returned.
“How was it?” She asked.
“It’s been settled.” Huan nodded at her.
He believed that when Lang Yu saw him in the future, he would behave very well.
“I have arranged a room for you. It’s right next to me, is that alright?” Sima You Yue asked.
“That’s perfect.” Huan was very satisfied with this arrangement.
.
“Then go and rest. We have to get to the competition early tomorrow morning. Do you want me to show you to your room?” Sima You Yue asked.
“No, when I followed you, I had already figured my way around everywhere.” Huan said.
“That’s good. Goodnight.” Sima You Yue returned to her room where she took a bath in the Spirit Pagoda and fell asleep comfortably afterwards.
On the other side of the inn, Lang Yu grimaced: “Where did this Huan come from? I couldn’t even tell what he was good for and he beat me up like this. This guy is malicious!”
“You should be thankful that he only used his hands.” Yu Xi applied some ointment on him, “If he used his spiritual energy, I’m afraid you would be in a worse state than you are right now!”
“Can you tell where he’s come from? Sss... be more gentle!” Lang Yu yelled out in pain.
“Who told you to talk nonsense? Even if he didn’t beat you up, I would have taught you a lesson myself.” Yu Xi said.
“Well, yes, I shouldn’t have said that, but I wasn’t joking! Besides, I wanted to see if I could find out any information about him. I didn’t expect him to be so highly skilled!” Lang Yu’s mouth twitched, “How long has Sima You Yue been in the Ghost Realm? Why are there such powerful people protecting her?”
“Also, this person’s breath is a bit strange.” Yu Xi said while he applied the ointment, “I wonder how she met him.”
“Since the other party has said that he is here to protect her, then at present, he isn’t an enemy.” Lang Yu said.
Yu Xi stared at him without speaking, the silence gave him a headache: “My sacrifice is also for us, so he isn’t an enemy, right?”
“As long as she is our middleman, he isn’t.” Yu Xi’s words made him breathe a sigh of relief. He didn’t want to be enemies with such a powerful person. He had a feeling that Huan was so powerful that he would be able to eliminate him within minutes.
“Ouch, it hurts so much. You have to make it up to me!”
“I didn’t ask you to do this!”
“You can’t be so ungrateful!”
“Ungrateful?”
“...”
...
Early the next morning, Sima You Yue took Fang Ying Han and the others to the arena. Murong Hui had disappeared in the middle of the night. Those who hadn’t made it to the next round of the competition didn’t come to watch this time.
It wasn’t just the case with their province, but also the case for the other regions too. Therefore, there were very few spectators at today’s game. One look at the situation today and it was obvious that something was going to happen.
By the time the competition had started, none of the people from the Great Yu Palace had come. Only the umpire and the host were present.
“Competitors, come forward and draw your number.” The host didn’t even bother with an opening speech, and just instructed the competitors to come forward to draw their numbers and pick up their talisman.
Because at this point, it was an elite competition, therefore, the number of people in each group that entered the Realm of Emptiness had dropped from one hundred to fifty, which made it more convenient for the spectators to watch from the outside.
Out of the three hundred and four groups, Sima You Yue had picked the last group and had to wait till the end before she could go into the arena.
Fang Ying Han and Zhang Mingda were in the first group, their numbers were twenty five and forty respectively. They both promoted to the next round by using the pills and one time use arrays that Sima You Yue had given them.
“Not bad!” Sima You Yue smiled at both of them.
“We still had to depend on Young Miss to promote.” Zhang Mingda looked at Sima You Yue gratefully.
By winning the competition this time round, they had been promoted to the top three hundred. Having reached this ranking, they would be vigorously cultivated by their kingdom, and their future achievements would be self-evident. If they were able to advance, that would be even better!
However, in the face of so many highly skilled opponents, it was unlikely that they would be promoted in the next round. They were very satisfied with their current achievements.
“Go and rest and tend to your injuries.” Sima You Yue nodded at them and didn’t say much else.
“Mmm.”
Fang Ying Han and Zhang Ming Da could tell that her emotions were a little erratic today, therefore, they returned to their positions obediently. They took a pill and watched the game while they healed their injuries.
Yuan Yan and Mo Zhi didn’t come. Lang Yu hadn’t come either as his face was still bruised and swollen from being beaten up. Therefore, only Yu Xi and Huan accompanied Sima You Yue. They could tell that she was feeling a little uneasy.
“It will be fine.” Yu Xi said, “With your father’s influence, you shouldn’t be sent to the front line.”
“Are you trying to comfort me?” Sima You Yue was speechless, “Although Father’s strength is not very strong, he is after all a core member of the Prince’s force.”
“It will be fine.” Huan also comforted her.
“None of the Dukes came today. I think they have either followed the Princess Consort or the Prince of Great Yu.” Sima You Yue sighed, “I guess the competitors here today are lucky because they won’t have to face today’s situation.”
It was the first time Yu Xi had seen Sima You Yue’s sad look, and he didn’t like it. So he changed the topic and said: “I wonder if you will meet a strong opponent today. I’m still waiting to see your strength!”
“Do you have that much trust in me? What if I was only bragging?” Sima You Yue turned to ask him.
Yu Xi chuckled: “Are you?”
Sima You Yue pouted, his reaction was not funny: “I hope I won’t encounter a formidable opponent today.”
“That’ll depend on your luck.”
Time has shown that her luck was indeed very good. Although the opponents she had encountered were good, she hadn’t needed to take action.
However, her opponent had a more powerful beast, hence, Sima You Yue called Blacky out. At first, when everyone saw Blacky who had no spiritual energy, everyone wondered if Sima You Yue was so poor that she had to let a useless dog come out to make up the numbers. However, they were all dumbfounded, having witnessed Blacky’s speed.
Sure enough, there were no ordinary Underworld Beasts where she was concerned!
When Sima You Yue came down and saw Yu Xi’s indescribable expression, she pursed her lips and smiled: “I’m sorry I’ve not shown you my strength, Uncle.”
Yu Xi raised an eyebrow: “We shall see.”
“It’s getting late, those things should have been handled by now.” Sima looked at the sky in the distance.
“Who do you think won?” Yu Xi asked.
“That’s needless to say. I have great confidence in my Father!” Sima You Yue said.
“You knew the result already?”
“I’ve already said this, I have my sources.” Sima You Yue said, “The affairs outside have ended, we can go back now.”
At this time, some guards from outside came running inside, and the competitors who were just about to leave were stopped.
“What’s the matter?”
Some of them didn’t know what had happened, however, Sima You Yue and the others already knew what had happened. Therefore, they were not surprised to see the guards leaving the arena with some of the competitors.
