Bai Shengyi:?
An alchemist? Who is spreading such vicious rumors? Don't they know it's easy to spread rumors but hard to refute them!
Bai Shengyi mused, but didn't delay in retorting, "I think you and Qin Zhao are quite suited for each other. One is hypocritical and scheming, with a greasy face, and the other is arrogant and brainless, with a pointy nose and a collapsed nose. You two are a perfect match!"
"Oh, and also, you both meddle too much in other people's business! Whether my eyes are treated or not, what business is it of yours?"
Chu Tianle burst into laughter, "Shengyi, perhaps ugly people are just prone to causing trouble!"
The Chu family and the Sun family had no particular acquaintance, and Chu Tianle disliked Sun Yun's overbearing and arrogant nature. He heard that when Sun Yun was only ten years old, she had directly beaten to death three servants because she was in a bad mood.
So young, yet already so cruel.
Although Sun Yun was the youngest daughter of the Sun family head, she was not particularly favored. The reason was that she did not resemble her mother or her father, nor was she as beautiful as her two older sisters.
Because of this, she was even more concerned about her appearance, to the point of being nitpicky.
Her collapsed nose and pointy mouth had always been her sensitive spot. When Bai Shengyi pointed them out so blatantly this time, she couldn't stand it and rushed towards Bai Shengyi with her sword.
"Bitch! I'll disfigure your face!"
"Hey! Your opponent is me!" Chu Tianle understood Bai Shengyi's intentions well and consciously blocked Sun Yun with his saber.
Sun Yun became even more enraged, "Then I'll cripple you first!"
Sun Yun stabbed at Chu Tianle's lower body. Chu Tianle flipped his great saber in his hand and easily blocked it with his backhand.
"Fellow Daoist Sun, your skills aren't that great either." Chu Tianle continued to parry, still having enough energy to take down his wine pot and take a sip of wine. He laughed at Sun Yun, "Did Patriarch Sun not teach you the Sun family sword?"
This sentence was like a sharp thorn piercing precisely into Sun Yun's heart!
The Sun family sword was a family heirloom. Logically, every member of the Sun family should have been taught the Sun family swordplay by their parents after the age of ten. However, her father suspected she was not his biological daughter and had never brought it up, only letting her second sister teach her.
"Ah! You deserve to die!" Sun Yun was infuriated by Chu Tianle and attacked him with all her might.
Compared to the fierce battle between the two of them, the situation between Bai Shengyi and Qin Zhao was completely one-sided.
"Slap!"
Bai Shengyi's whip accurately struck Qin Zhao's face again. She smiled and said, "Why are you so foolish? You always come to me to get beaten. Doesn't your face hurt?"
Qin Zhao's face visibly twitched.
It hurt.
Why wouldn't it hurt? It hurt so much that his whole body ached, but he couldn't dodge it!
No matter if he covered his face with his hands, cradled his head, or chopped at Bai Shengyi's whip with his sword, Bai Shengyi's whip seemed to be locked onto his face, hitting him there every time!
"Bai Shengyi! Can you stop humiliating me! You were the one who wanted to break off the engagement. Even if you regret it, you can't trample on my dignity like this!" Qin Zhao's gentle face contorted, and he shouted unusually loudly.
Bai Shengyi didn't understand why he was yelling again at first. By the time she saw Sun Yun take out a stack of talismans and throw two at Chu Tianle, which exploded with a "bang bang" sound!
Chu Tianle was forced to retreat step by step, even sustaining injuries to his right arm and left leg, and knelt on the ground.
"Fifth-rank Demolition Talismans? The Sun family is truly generous. Fellow Daoist Sun is quite favored by your family." Chu Tianle's face was pale, but he still spoke with a smile.
In order to avenge Sun Yun's insult of calling her a "bitch," every word he spoke was precisely hitting Sun Yun's sore spots.
Just like now, Sun Yun was taking advantage of Chu Tianle's injury, which prevented him from blocking her, and wanted to rescue Qin Zhao. However, being reminded by Chu Tianle like this, she felt heartbroken.
These Demolition Talismans were her long-accumulated stash! She felt pained to use even one normally, but now she had used several in a row, and she didn't know how many more she would have to use later.
"Miss Yun, can I exchange this fourth-rank pill for your talismans? We are a team now, we can't always let you be the one to pay."
Qin Zhao said with a bitter and dejected tone, "It's just a shame I'm not favored at home and don't have many good things on me. I really can't help much... Ah!"
As he spoke, this time he didn't dodge Bai Shengyi's whip. Instead, he deliberately tilted his head, allowing the whip to hit him directly.
Bai Shengyi was truly disgusted by Qin Zhao's tactic of retreating to advance and playing the victim to deceive young girls. Yet, Sun Yun still believed his nonsense, even thinking of him as a true gentleman who wouldn't take advantage of her even at this point.
Seeing Sun Yun throwing the Demolition Talismans at her, Bai Shengyi's gaze turned cold. She drew the Samsara Brush, creating a half-sky curtain to block in front of her, and used her spiritual power to create a protective shield for herself and Chu Tianle under the cover of the Samsara Brush.
"Bang! Bang!"
The loud explosion caused the battle platform to shake twice, an impact comparable to that of a Golden Core cultivator!
The protective shields of the Samsara Brush and spiritual power shattered successively. Bai Shengyi didn't give Sun Yun a chance to throw another talisman. She flew out a character for "Bind" and tightly bound Sun Yun!
"Slap!" The whip struck Sun Yun's wrist.
Sun Yun let out a scream, and her hand involuntarily loosened. The Dream-Taming Vine on Bai Shengyi's wrist, without being instructed, automatically rolled up the Demolition Talismans and handed them to Bai Shengyi.
"There are still two left. Fellow Daoist Sun is truly wealthy. I'm in need of this very thing, so thank you for your generosity." Bai Shengyi chuckled and, in front of Sun Yun, placed the Demolition Talismans into her storage bag.
Sun Yun was so angry her heart ached. Where did this bandit come from!
She was even stealing her meager possessions, didn't she have any shame!
"Don't be angry, there will be more to make you angry later." Bai Shengyi looked at Chu Tianle, who still hadn't recovered from his arm injury, and her smile gradually faded.
Qin Zhao: "Bai Shengyi, you have to be like this... Ah!"
Bai Shengyi actually whipped him on the mouth!
Qin Zhao felt a sharp pain in his mouth, as if he had been struck twice by something sharp, and then something "cracked" and came loose.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that two of his teeth had fallen out!
"Ah! You bitch, I'll kill you!" Qin Zhao was going crazy. His appearance, his image, had all been ruined by Bai Shengyi!
However, Bai Shengyi completely ignored him. She said to Chu Tianle, "Chu Tianle, stay behind me."
"Okay!" Chu Tianle happily ran behind Bai Shengyi to hide. Although he felt a little guilty, he still followed Bai Shengyi's instructions.
Immediately after, he felt the joy of being protected.
"Fellow Daoist Sun, you like playing with talismans? Coincidentally, I like playing with whips. Let's have a good exchange!" Bai Shengyi said, and flicked her whip again.
However, this whip was simultaneously aimed at both Sun Yun and Qin Zhao. Seeing the whip about to reach them, Qin Zhao actively stepped in front of Sun Yun, "Bai Shengyi, you venomous woman, if you have the guts, whip me, this Prince. What kind of bravery is it to bully Miss Yun, a woman!"
"Then I'll grant your wish!" Bai Shengyi sneered coldly.
"Slap!"
Bai Shengyi wrapped around Sun Yun and threw her towards Qin Zhao. Qin Zhao hurriedly went to catch her, but was whipped again on the knee, causing him to kneel on the ground. Then, he was smashed by Sun Yun, causing him to spit up blood and faint!
All of this happened in an instant. Seeing Qin Zhao actually faint for her, Sun Yun couldn't bear it and roared, "We surrender! We surrender!"
As soon as she spoke, the academy's referee immediately opened the protective barrier of the battle platform and announced to both sides, "Bai Shengyi and Chu Tianle win, scoring 1 point!"
Hearing this, Sun Yun glared at Bai Shengyi as if she wanted to kill her, hating her to the point of spitting blood!
