Seeing Lin An's arrival, Qian Yi only smiled and remained calm.

Xiao Muran had been an inferior opponent, and he wasn't worth taking to heart at all.

On the contrary, Lin An seemed to be dragging things out a little.

Even though he had scored a one-hit victory, in Qian Yi's heart, Lin An was still too inexperienced.

To deal with an insignificant challenger, he had actually needed to raise his hand!

Qian Yi pursed her lips and gestured for Lin An to stand closer to her.

On the other side of the arena, the silver-robed elder's face was as cold as ice.

Not only had Xiao Muran been crippled, but he also had no other disciple who could stand up for him in his enmity with Qian Yi. There was no chance for him to turn the tables. He could only turn his gaze to the other disciples from the Golden Peak mountain.

As he exited the stage, the silver-robed elder ran into Qiao Zifeng.

‘Isn't this the personal disciple to the peak master from Cang Xiao Peak!'

The Cang Xiao Peak master also had a rivalry with Qian Yi. However, he was completely no match against her.

Therefore, Qiao Zifeng would definitely be motivated to stand up for his master and gain some face.

Qiao Zifeng was like a steamed bun, a hope for revenge. Hence, the silver-robed elder was interested in forming an alliance with him.

…

The ball of light in front of Lin An had already disappeared.

Not long after, the first round of the inner sect competition ended.

The presiding elder instructed the losers to stand on one side of the square, while the winners from the first round stood on the opposite side.

The elder stood on the stage and announced the rules for the next round.

The second round of the inner sect competition would be a challenge by name. However, for the sake of fairness, every disciple would have three opportunities to reject a challenge from an undesired rival.

When they heard the new rules, the elders on the stage whispered among themselves and discussed in low voices how they would deal with Lin An.

In the end, the elders agreed to send their most outstanding disciples to take turns to challenge Lin An.

After the discussion, they all looked at the disciples below the stage, and their eyes were full of amusement.

When he saw that his master was looking at him, Qiao Zifeng nodded his head and quickly flew onto the stage.

His eyes were full of arrogance as he twisted his head and circled the fighting arena.

After looking around, he pointed at Lin An.

“You're it!”

The inner sect disciples were puzzled.

Could it be that Qiao Zifeng intended to face Lin An in the second round?

The disciples below the ring looked at Lin An, and their faces were full of shock and then excitement.

“The peerless genius Qiao Zifeng has actually named Lin An. He is in trouble now!”

“Xiao Muran's talent wasn't bad, but Lin An overcame him. However, Qiao Zifeng is different. He is on another level!”

“In my opinion, Lin An should refuse! After all, he has three chances to reject a challenge!”

During his conversation with Qian Yi, Lin An had understood that he would be targeted. However, his rivals did not seem to care about etiquette, justice, and shame. They all intended to get onto the stage and challenge him publicly.

However, Lin An would not be intimidated.

In fact, the situation had turned out exactly as he had wanted it to.

The reason was simple. If Qiao Zifeng was willing to take the lead and challenge him, Lin An would let him do it. He could use Qiao Zifeng as an example to the remaining inner sect disciples in the tournament.

With no hesitation, Lin An went up onto the stage again.

The elders above the balcony revealed smug smiles and looked at each other in surprise.

They hadn't expected Lin An to give up his right to decline the challenge.

It seemed that while Qian Yi was arrogant and domineering, her disciple was extremely stupid.

Since that was the case, she couldn't blame anyone for Lin An's expected fate in the competition.

Therefore, the elders of Cang Xiao Peak sent a voice transmission to Qiao Zifeng. “Quickly, cripple Lin An!”

Qiao Zifeng nodded slightly and said, “Lin An, I admire you very much! I didn't think that you would have the courage to stand on this high platform. I don't like to hold back, and my cultivation level is also at the peak of the foundation establishment stage. I'll be able to break through to the golden core very soon. It's still not too late for you to admit defeat!”

The competition had not yet begun, but Qiao Zifeng had already revealed his trump card. As long as Lin An felt intimidated, his cultivation technique would definitely be affected.

When they heard Qiao Zifeng's statement, the inner sect disciples below the stage were already nervous.

If they had been placed in Lin An's position, they would definitely have rolled off the stage to avoid embarrassing themselves.

Lin An's bent his two fingers slightly, and two wisps of flames, one black and one white, appeared. The illusory flames quickly attracted everyone's attention.

The elders present tried to use their spiritual senses to probe the two wisps of flames.

However, the power emitted by the flames was too strong for them to overcome.

The flames were like black holes, and they devoured everything, including the spiritual senses of the elders.

Additionally, the flames emitted an icy aura that prevented the spiritual senses from probing them.

At that moment, everyone understood what was happening.  Lin An's flames were not simple! He must have used one of Qian Yi's incredible treasures to generate them!

However, since Lin An could take out a treasure, Qiao Zifeng was no different.

Boom!

A loud sound that could pierce through gold and crack rocks rang out in the arena.

Blazing flames erupted from Qiao Zifeng's body, and streaks of golden sword energy appeared. It was as if the sword was made of divine gold, and it emitted a mysterious aura.

The disciples below the stage were all dumbfounded.

What kind of power was this?

The peak foundation establishment realm was actually so terrifying!

“Lin An! You will now experience the strength of a peak foundation establishment realm cultivator!”

It was too powerful!

Qiao Zifeng had been able to spawn such powerful strength. The energy gathered on his body and exploded into blazing flames.

It was as a hot, unbearable, sea of fire had engulfed the entire arena.

The Jiuxiao Sect disciples were shocked.

They didn't dare to look at Qiao Zifeng since they were afraid that their eyeballs would melt.

They couldn't imagine how anyone would fight a monster like Qiao Zifeng!

On the contrary, Qian Yi's gaze remained calm.

It was like a clear spring, unperturbed by the waves.

There was a strong contrast in her appearance. In the eyes of the other elders, Qian Yi was too cold and heartless. It seemed as if Lin An wasn't her disciple!

Qiao Zifeng waved his flaming hand and was about to attack Lin An!

However, at that moment, a cypress-like flame rapidly formed alongside Qiao Zifeng!

It was just a small flame that was  the size of a thumb, but it directly suppressed the flames that Qiao Zifeng had generated.

Sizzling sounds could be heard on the stage.

Everyone slowed down their breathing because they could feel that the air seemed to have frozen.

They actually could not feel a trace of warmth.

The atmosphere turned bone-chilling cold, and Qiao Zifeng's arms seem to have frozen.

A little while later, there wasn't a single spark left on the stage.

What kind of flame was this?

The elders' mouths fell open in shock.

The disciples below the stage did not seem to understand what had happened, but the peak masters on the balcony had clearly seen the incident.

Lin An's casual flame had completely suppressed the flames erupting from Qiao Zifeng's body!

With such an enormous difference in strength, how could the competition continue?

On the stage, Qiao Zifeng bit his tongue as he tried to activate his nerves.

His Qi and blood slowly flowed to his arm, attempting to condense the flames again and melt the frozen ice!

But just as the flames began to gather, Qiao Zifeng's entire arm was completely shattered like glass, turning into ice crystal dust that drifted away.

Immediately, pin-drop silence fell over the arena.
