Chapter 700: A Challenge at the Martial Arts Competition

“Lou Qianxue? The first thing Senior Brother Xu does after coming back is challenging Lou Qianxue to a battle... Seems like he really left because of Lou Qianxue!”

“However, Senior Brother Xu is now at Heavenly Martial Real. Lou Qianxue is definitely not a match for him now!”

“That’s right! In the Tian Zhao Empire, apart from Senior Brother Xu, there is only one other Heavenly Martial Realm, which is Emperor Ying! For Senior Brother Xu, dealing with Lou Qianxue would be as easy as trampling on an ant. However... Lou Qianxue has not returned to the academy for a long time.”

“I wonder if it’s because she knows that Senior Brother Xu is looking for her. That’s why she doesn’t dare to come back...” The students of the Imperial Academy speculated about all kinds of things.

“Lou Qianxue! Come and accept the challenge!” Xu Tailang shouted while maintaining a cold expression.

No one responded to him for a while.

The frostiness emanating from Xu Tailang intensified, and he looked in a direction below the stage. “Didn’t you say that Lou Qianxue already came back?”

The person he stared at sweated buckets. “That’s right! Lou Qianxue came back about 10 days ago.”

“Then where is she now?”

“Don’t worry, Young Master! We will find out now.”

A while later,

“Young Master, Young Master! We found out that Lou Qianxue has gone into seclusion!”

“D*mn it!” Xu Tailang scowled. “Did that woman do it on purpose?”

“However... Young Master...”

“Speak!”

“I heard that Lou Qianxue has signed up for the martial arts competition. So, she will definitely appear on the day of the competition!”

“Martial arts competition?”

“Young Master, you just came back so you don’t know. The Tian Zhao Empire might go into war with the Nandu Nation soon. Therefore, to recruit aspiring youths all over Tian Zhao into the army, the Emperor especially requested Zhen Guogong to organize a martial arts competition. Those who excel in the competition will get to join the army and will be deployed to the border!”

Xu Tailang’s expression became forbidding. He frostily looked in the direction of the Nandu Nation. “Hmph! Nandu Nation... four years ago, I trained in the army and beheaded ten of their commanders on my own. This time, I will certainly be present! Xu Lin, sign up for me as well!”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Xu Tailang withdrew his sword and sneered. “Who here knows Lou Qianxue well? Tell her! On the day of the martial arts competition, I, Xu Tailang, will destroy her to make her pay for my brother Erlang’s and my cousin’s deaths!”

Meanwhile, in the Mountain River Space of Lou Family...

Lou Qianxue’s forehead became covered in sweat as she focused all her attention on using the flame core to inflame the Fire Sun Cauldron.

The white tendrils of the thousand thread vine, which resembled silver threads, huddled around the pill cauldron and put up a strong resistance.

“As expected of a high-level spiritual herb, it’s indeed powerful. Just refining it took me such a long time.

“Refining the thousand thread vine into the appearance of an adult’s meridians might be even more difficult...”

Gasp!

She exhaled and continued to refine!

Three days later...

“I’m finished. The thousand thread vine has been shaped into the appearance of a person’s meridians. It has also been perfectly incorporated with the containment fruit... I just need to preserve it with the “Nourishing Inscription” and the “Shape Fixing Inscription” for half a month. Then, An Shaoning can finally use it!”

Lou Qianxue carefully placed the newly-refined meridians on the magical tree.

“Before I refine it using the “Nourishing Inscription” and the “Shape Fixing Inscription,” I’ll place it on the magical tree first. Although the magical tree withered to save me, its life energy is very dense. If this set of meridians can absorb some of the life energy of the magical tree, An Shaoning would tremendously benefit from it in the future!”

An Shaoning was the person Lou Xiaoxiao liked, and he was Lou Qianxue’s future brother-in-law. Hence, she had to be very careful about matters concerning him...

After that, Lou Qianxue started to focus on creating the “Nourishing Inscription” and the “Shape Fixing Inscription” based on the method in her memory.

As she busied herself, Dan Taiyuan came to visit her a few times and silently accompanied her for a period before leaving again...

Time slowly passed.
