C287 She Is Very Much like You
Earlier, the surrounding disciples, due to Shen Qing's beauty, had even intended to show their gratitude.
However, at this moment, when everyone saw Shen Qing, they were all frightened by her aura. They couldn't help opening up a path for her and allowed her to leave.
Stepping down from the stage and walking a few steps, Shen Qing's gaze wandered around the crowd and suddenly saw Chu Yan.
A ray of light suddenly flashed through her previously calm eyes, before she turned around and walked towards Chu Yan.
Walking to Chu Yan, Shen Qing did not speak anymore. She folded her hands by her side, bent her knees, made a standard maid salute, and turned to leave.
This scene caused everyone around to be stunned.
After a while, they came back to their senses and looked at Chu Yan with a strange expression.
Many people couldn't help but have this thought: This fellow Chu Yan, could he really be a firefly in the dark, able to attract beautiful female disciples who had just entered the sect to express their goodwill in front of so many people?
Chu Yan shook his head helplessly.
He naturally knew that the other party had bowed in gratitude towards him regarding the Evergreen Town.
However, Chu Yan did not know why the other party would come to Shattered Star Pavilion.
Initially, he didn't intend to interact much with Shen Qing. Thus, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before he stopped thinking about it.
What Chu Yan wanted to know was, Shen Qing's appearance had already destroyed the balance in the Spirit Apostle Ranking Competition.
In the group that she was originally in, the strongest should have been Pan Xu.
But now, Pan Xu had been eliminated in the first round, and was not even qualified to be on the Spirit Apostle Ranking.
Although the other disciples of this group were all stirred up by the news, judging from Shen Qing's strong performance just now in defeating Pan Xu, it was very likely that she would copy the shocking performance that Chu Yan showed a few months ago.
However, all of these were not things that Chu Yan needed to be concerned about right now.
He turned and walked toward the stands.
"I feel a little familiar with that girl just now." Sure enough, the moment Chu Yan returned, he heard Lin Miaoran say this.
Thus, Chu Yan explained Shen Qing's identity to her.
"So that's how it is." Lin Miaoran recalled, and nodded, "At that time, the situation was too chaotic, so I didn't pay too much attention to her."
The second round of the competition quickly began.
Chu Yan had originally planned to teach Pan Xu a lesson once again when he had the chance.
After all, there was no need to deduct Sect Contribution Point s to beat Pan Xu up in the Spirit Apostle Ranking Competition.
Unfortunately, this fellow failed and was eliminated in the first round.
In the second round, Chu Yan won just as easily as before.
His opponent did not even have time to pull out his sword before he was slammed down from the stage by Chu Yan.
After two rounds, three quarters of the participating disciples had already been eliminated, and there were less than three thousand remaining.
In the third round, Chu Yan won without any suspense.
Although his opponent was a level higher than him, and had a complete 1st level of Pulse Condensation Stage, he was also an expert who was ranked in the top fifty.
But in front of Chu Yan, he still had no chance of winning.
At this moment, there were still 1300 people left. If he won another match, he would definitely advance to the top 1000.
The fourth round ended not long after.
There were more than six hundred people left.
After the fifth round, there were still 300 people left.
The sixth round of the competition was much more brutal than the previous rounds.
In many rings, there was even blood.
Although there would be some injuries in the first few rounds of the competition, the acolytes all knew that after the sixth round, there would only be a little less than two hundred people left, which meant that they would be half-way to the top one hundred.
Moreover, the rewards from entering the top 100 were much more than the rewards for entering the top 100. Therefore, many of the disciples who were still holding onto their prizes began to take out their trump cards.
The number of severely injured people in this round's round suddenly increased by quite a bit.
However, because there were deacons and elite disciples watching over them, such a thing wouldn't happen.
After the sixth round of the competition ended, there were still 180 people left.
As long as these people won the seventh round of the competition, they would be able to enter the top 100.
Chu Yan watched as Li Xiu, Su Jianyuan, Jiang Panmeng, Feng Xin and the others all successfully made it into the competition.
When Jiang Panmeng was in the sixth round of matches, she had an early encounter with the strongest disciple in this group, who was also the eighth ranked disciple from the last time.
Relying on her recent upgrades, she used the Phoenix Dance of the Nine Heavens and combined with the even more powerful Phoenix Wings Astral Chop to knock her opponent off the stage.
As a result, her strongest enemy had already been defeated by her. With Jiang Panmeng's strength, she would stand out in the end and enter the top ten, and would no longer have any suspense.
On the other hand, the others shouldn't have any big problems either.
Through Chu Yan's explanation, Lin Miaoran had already understood the difference in treatment between the top hundred and below.
So even though she clearly knew in her heart that it wouldn't be a problem for Chu Yan to enter the top one hundred in this group, she still couldn't help but be a little nervous at the start of the seventh round.
However, her nervousness didn't last for long.
Chu Yan used the Dark Eight Desolations Fist and blasted his opponent out of the fighting arena.
Seeing that Chu Yan was using the martial skill that he had taught, a sweet taste surfaced in his heart.
Entering the top hundred, was naturally not Chu Yan's goal.
So far, these competitions were just a warm-up for him.
After the eighth round, there were less than fifty people left.
Amongst the fifty people, Chu Yan saw a familiar figure — — Zhou Kai who was good at using arrays.
Last time, when Zhou Kai lost to Chu Yan, it could be seen that he also trained extremely hard in these few months.
This time, he had finally broken through. From the top 100, he had broken through to the top 50.
If he won another match, he would be ranked at the very least in the top 20. He would be ranked at the top 15 thousand disciples.
But in the ninth round of competition, Zhou Kai had to face a mysterious and powerful opponent — — Shen Qing.
This time round, Shen Qing, who was participating in the Spirit Apostle Ranking Competition as a new disciple, had imprinted the image of Chu Yan's performance during the last competition onto his mind.
With an absolutely powerful performance, she had made it into the top 50.
Other than her initial opponent, Pan Xu, injuring her, in the following matches, she won almost all of them without any suspense.
The thing that made people flinch the most was that her right hand was injured when she was fighting with Pan Xu. In the rounds that followed, her opponents all deliberately targeted her point.
However, Shen Qing didn't seem to care at all about the injuries on her right hand.
When others deliberately attacked her right hand, she continued to strike back with her right hand.
The handkerchief wrapped around her right hand had become bloodstained. However, there was still no expression on her face. She looked like a doll with frozen expression.
"Senior-apprentice Brother Zhou." Before the ninth round of competition began, Chu Yan called out to Zhou Kai, "Your next opponent is not simple."
Zhou Kai's face was extremely stern.
After a while, he turned his head and looked at Chu Yan: "I have a feeling that she is very similar to you."
