Chapter 1817 An Unfair Sparring
Yan Xu's expression instantly turned somber. He gritted his teeth and remained silent: "..."
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Ruan Yu turned to leave.
Just then, Yan Xu spoke up: "I no longer have those feelings for you. I just... just want to talk to you from a friend's perspective."
Ruan Yu stopped in her tracks, remaining silent.
Yan Xu racked his brains but couldn't think of anything to say, and the atmosphere fell silent.
He found that he seemed unable to communicate with her normally anymore. Every time he saw her, his heart would leap with joy.
But she rejected him directly and clearly.
"Let's go back and watch the game," Yan Xu said, scratching his head awkwardly.
"it is good."
He waited until Ruan Yu had gone inside for a while before following her in.
Since she won't accept me, I can't do anything that might cause misunderstandings.
So that she wouldn't develop a dislike for him.
"Master, does Yan Xu like you?" When Ruan Yu returned, Gu Xing had already finished the competition and was sitting in a chair waiting for a long time.
He lowered his voice and spoke in a tone that only the two of them could hear.
"...Maybe." Ruan Yu remained silent.
"Looks like he was rejected, hahaha, Master did a great job!" Gu Xing laughed for a while before continuing with the important matter: "The Yuan family's formation is really powerful. Once we enter their formation, we have almost no chance to fight back."
“I listened to your advice, Master, and attacked as soon as they began to set up their formation. Although it was shameful, it was extremely effective, and I was the only one who won a match. We lost the other nine.”
Ruan Yu comforted him, "Didn't the Gu family ever think about using the professions they had learned to fight?"
The Yuan family uses formations, the Yan family uses talismans, and the Gu family uses summoning techniques; only the Gu family relies on their own cultivation to engage in combat.
That's a bit unfair.
Ruan Yu couldn't believe that in such a large family as the Gu family, not a single person would learn these side jobs.
Gu Xing shook his head: "No, it won't work. The purpose of the four families' exchange is to let each other understand the gap and learn from each other's strengths."
“The three families are known for their formations, talismans, and summoning techniques, so they can use them in the competition. But our Gu family doesn’t have a particularly outstanding area among those professions.”
Ruan Yu rolled her eyes, wondering which of the two arms had come up with this sparring format.
"That's why you lost so badly."
"...What can we do?" Gu Xing was at a loss.
“Everyone should use all the methods they’ve learned; that’s what makes it fair,” Ruan Yu suggested.
Gu Xing's eyes lit up, but he quickly became melancholy again: "Great idea! But it still won't work. I'm just a nobody right now. It's okay for our Gu family, the elders will definitely listen to you, but the other three families might not."
"Let's talk about it later." Ruan Yu just hoped the sparring match would end soon.
This way, she could reveal the matter of the giants sooner.
After two days and two nights of intense competition, the rankings are finally out.
The Gusu family remains firmly in first place, the Yuan family in second, and the Yan and Gu families tied for third.
There was no need for the Yuan family and the Gu family to spar with the Yan family; in the end, all the matches ended with overwhelming victories.
Ruan Yu carefully examined the participants from the four major families and found that their individual strengths were actually quite similar. The deciding factor was the professional methods they used.
The Gu family is at the lowest disadvantage; they have no advantage whatsoever.
The Yan family's talismans were too weak, and their effects were negligible.
The Yuan family's formations are endless, and they always manage to catch their opponents off guard.
As for the Gusu family... their summoned beasts all have excellent bloodlines, which is the key to their victory.
After the sparring session ended, the disciples of the four major families dispersed in groups, while the family heads and elders stayed behind to say a few flattering words.
The elders of the Yuan family said, "Once again, your Gusu family has won first place in this competition. The Gusu family has truly cultivated a group of outstanding disciples!"
If the head and elders of the Gusu family had tails, they would be wagging their tails in the air right now.
They said smugly, "Thank you for your kind offer."
"The disciples of the Yuan family are also quite good."
Just as everyone was actively discussing, Ruan Yu walked over. As a young girl, she stood out conspicuously among a group of old men.
"Are the disciples of the Gu family so ill-mannered? Didn't they see their elders speaking?" An elder from the Yan family had noticed Ruan Yu earlier, mainly because her appearance was too striking.
Their young master even ran over to her twice, probably because he was smitten by her face.
vixen!
"Brother Yan, you've misunderstood. She's not a disciple of the Gu family..." The Gu family's eldest elder was about to explain.
But the elder from the Yan family didn't give him a chance to continue: "Not a disciple of the Gu family? Nor a disciple of any of our three families, so why are you sitting in the Gu family's seats?"
"Can't I be a guest?" Ruan Yu said rudely to the Yan family elder who spoke in an unfriendly tone.
She didn't provoke him, so why is he implying that he's criticizing her?
"You? A guest? What a joke!" The elder of the Yan family looked Ruan Yu up and down suspiciously for a few moments before speaking sarcastically, "The Gu family is a prominent and respected family, how could they invite an unknown person like you as a guest? You really are..."
"Young friend Ruan is indeed a guest invited by our Gu family, Elder Yan, watch your words!" The Gu family's First Elder couldn't stand it any longer and interrupted.
The five elders behind him also stepped forward, their sharp eyes fixed on the Yan family elder.
"Alright, alright, I wonder if this young friend has come here because he has something important to say?" The head of the Gusu family took the initiative to smooth things over, hitting Ruan Yu's target perfectly.
Ruan Yu then ignored the elders of the Yan family and got down to business.
Before anyone could react after she finished speaking about the Celestial Spirit Clan and the Giant Clan, the elder from the Yan family spoke up again: "We've heard of the Celestial Spirit Clan, but what is this Giant Clan? Young girl, what are you doing at such a young age, swindling and deceiving people?"
"You've even tried to scam our four families! You want us to contribute money, manpower, and effort to do something shady for you? You wish!"
“You…” The elders of the Gu family felt indignant on behalf of Ruan Yu.
Before they could speak, Ruan Yu stepped forward, releasing her imposing aura and focusing it on the Yan family elder alone.
"You're accusing me of being a liar without any evidence? You've never heard of giants, which only proves you're a frog in a well!"
Elder Yan was shocked that the beautiful woman before him possessed such profound cultivation: "You, you're enraged!"
Despite being terrified, he still refused to budge.
He just couldn't stand women like Ruan Yu who used their looks to seduce and hook up with men everywhere!
"Heh." Ruan Yu knew there was no point in arguing with this kind of person, so she said no more and gently clenched her fist.
In front of everyone, Elder Yan suddenly exploded and died!
