Xu Ningbing lowered her head in thought. Judging from the battles just now, these powerful sects indeed had a lot of profound foundations.
If the Hanxian Sect really invited her, she planned to join them and cultivate properly.
However, the Hanxian Sect would definitely have to meet the conditions she laid out.
Compared to cultivation, her family was undoubtedly more important.
She didn't want to enter a sect and be unable to come out for a long time.
The competition continued.
The arena saw several consecutive instances of participants declining matches and conceding defeat.
This couldn't be helped.
As the screening process went layer by layer, those who had relied on luck to get this far would inevitably be stopped in their tracks.
Xu Mu looked at Jiang Huihui and Dai Xingluo beside him. Both of them had just reached the Grandmaster level, so they didn't have an advantage here.
However, if the two of them were lucky, they still had a chance to reach the top ten.
Time ticked by. After several battles, it was finally Jiang Huihui's turn.
Jiang Huihui encountered a Grandmaster with similar strength to hers, and she easily advanced once again.
Compared to Jiang Huihui, Dai Xingluo's luck wasn't as good.
This time, she drew the second senior brother of the Spirit Hall, Guo Chuang.
"Don't you still have one right of refusal? Reject it. This is the second senior brother of the Spirit Hall, his strength is above Wang Zichong," Jiang Huihui said, looking at Dai Xingluo.
"I want to give it a try. There are still many experts who haven't competed yet. What if I refuse, and then they give me a first senior brother?" Dai Xingluo tightened her grip on her longsword and walked toward the arena. "As long as it's not a Transcendent who is a whole major realm ahead of me, I still have a chance."
Guo Chuang arrived in the arena a moment before Dai Xingluo. From the previous battles, not a single person from this Zhengde Faxie Sect had actively conceded.
Take Meng Wanyue from earlier, for example. Even though she had bad luck and drew Jiang Cisui, she still took the field.
Guo Chuang was a man with a somewhat pale complexion. He held a longsword in his hand, and his body was slender and emaciated, looking somewhat sickly.
He looked at Dai Xingluo as she came on stage and smiled. "I say, miss, you'd better be careful. My moves are a bit disgusting."
As soon as his voice fell, Guo Chuang pressed a hand against the ground.
Rumble!
The earth below shook violently. Then, long snakes made of earth and stone suddenly burst out from the soil, striking toward Dai Xingluo.
Seeing this, Dai Xingluo immediately drew her longsword and swung a wave of sword qi forward.
It sliced all of those earth and stone snakes apart.
But right at that moment, Guo Chuang had already flashed to Dai Xingluo's side and thrust out a palm strike.
Bang!
An invisible wave of air sent Dai Xingluo flying backward.
Dai Xingluo laughed. As expected of a top-tier expert, even when facing someone weaker, he didn't hold back in the slightest.
First, he used the ground to feign an attack, then took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack from the side.
However, his attack didn't seem all that heavy.
Just as Dai Xingluo was preparing to attack, she suddenly frowned. She felt as if something had gone wrong with her body.
A cold, malicious aura seeped through her pores and drilled into her mind.
It slithered around in her brain like a snake, filling her entire body with a sense of discomfort.
"Do you feel your body getting a little cold? Do you feel helpless and desperate?" Guo Chuang grinned. "That's perfectly normal, because you're about to die!"
Dai Xingluo stared at Guo Chuang in front of her. Originally, he was still in human form, but in an instant, his figure became incomparably massive.
His height grew to over ten meters in a short amount of time. His pale skin began to peel off, oozing out a viscous black substance from the inside.
Squellch!
Suddenly, this black, viscous substance burst out from every pore of Guo Chuang's giant body.
This blackness gradually transformed into pitch-black venomous snakes.
Countless black venomous snakes formed a massive wave, crashing down toward Dai Xingluo.
Boom!
Dai Xingluo's body was swallowed by this black ocean.
Of course, all of this was only happening in Dai Xingluo's eyes.
To the audience outside the arena, Dai Xingluo had been standing there, but then she suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Her hands continuously flailed around her, and her breathing became increasingly rapid.
Seeing this scene, all the onlookers knew that this battle was already over.
Under normal circumstances, the Spirit Hall's mental attacks were mostly ineffective in the early stages against such experts.
They needed to wear them down first before they could maximize the effect of the attack.
But for Guo Chuang dealing with Dai Xingluo, there was no need for such trouble at all.
Because his realm was much higher than Dai Xingluo's, he simply crushed her with a mental attack right from the start.
Holding his longsword, he walked toward Dai Xingluo step by step. "I know you're very scared right now, very terrified. I'll relieve you of your misery."
Guo Chuang had now arrived in front of Dai Xingluo, and he thrust his longsword forward.
Seeing this, the elders stationed around the perimeter had already raised their hands, preparing to teleport Dai Xingluo out.
Being controlled by the opponent's mental attack right at the start meant she definitely wasn't a match.
Swish!
Right at that moment, several thin golden threads suddenly spread outward.
Seeing this, Guo Chuang quickly used his longsword to block, and his body continuously retreated.
He was endlessly shocked in his heart. The opponent was a woman who clearly looked like a sheltered young lady from a wealthy family, someone who hadn't seen much of the world.
Logically speaking, facing his Soul Rotting Technique, she should have wet herself in fear long ago. Yet, she was actually able to counterattack.
"Hehehe! So many little snakies!"
Dai Xingluo revealed a gentle smile and climbed back up from the ground.
She executed the Cloud Step and suddenly charged at Guo Chuang.
Seeing this, Guo Chuang immediately raised his palm. "Flame Net!"
Whoosh!
A large flaming net shot toward Dai Xingluo.
Swish, swish, swish!
The thin golden threads wrapping around Dai Xingluo abruptly shredded the flaming net.
She stepped on the air once again, arriving right in front of Guo Chuang.
She slashed out with her sword.
Accompanied by the cry of a phoenix, a flaming phoenix surged toward Guo Chuang.
As Guo Chuang retreated, he used his longsword to carve a talisman in the air.
"White Tiger!"
Boom!
From an earth-yellow talisman, a tiger radiating white light suddenly leapt out.
The tiger leapt up and bit into the flaming phoenix.
Rumble!
Both sides completely turned into Qi energy, and the scope of the explosion instantly expanded across the entire arena.
Whoosh!
The flaming Qi energy was instantly sliced open with a gap. Dai Xingluo emerged from it with a face full of smiles, arriving in front of Guo Chuang in the blink of an eye.
"I noticed that after you unleash a move, your body returns to its original size. This should be your true body, right?"
Swish, swish, swish!
Dai Xingluo imbued her longsword with Qi, laughing as she frantically hacked and slashed at Guo Chuang.
Guo Chuang immediately used his longsword to block, but unexpectedly found himself somewhat unable to parry.
He executed the Soul Rotting Technique again. Dai Xingluo, who was in the middle of attacking, suddenly raised her left hand to block.
Guo Chuang seized the opportunity and pierced Dai Xingluo's palm with his sword. He grinned and said, "This snake's bite hurts a lot, doesn't it..."
Swish!
Dai Xingluo swiftly moved forward, letting the longsword pass through her palm and dig deeper.
Her blood-covered hand grabbed onto the sword hilt.
Swish!
The longsword in her hand also pierced into Guo Chuang's body. "Hehe! I must have hit you too, right?"
"Fuck! Is this bitch crazy?"
Seeing Dai Xingluo's smile, Guo Chuang felt a bit creeped out.
He had clearly used a mental attack to frighten Dai Xingluo, so how was it that now, he was the one feeling afraid?
Swish, swish, swish...
Fine golden threads materialized all around Dai Xingluo.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
