This is also a concern for Ruo Yi. His Piggy Face was filled with worry: Guan Yue would be a formidable rival to Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian.
Ouyang Shaohua looked at Guan Yue. She had heard about Yin Jingjing betraying Guan Yue, and secretly felt a bit excited. She knew her feelings were somewhat dark, but it was better than seeing the two of them happily cooperating. She didn't want to deceive herself. She simply didn't want Guan Yue to get too close to Yin Jingjing. Was that wrong? Ouyang Shaohua didn't think deeply about what might happen between her and Guan Yue, but her heart was always concerned about him; aside from cultivation, she was always thinking about him. Now that he had become a handsome young man, she felt even more fond of him.
Gathering her courage, she walked towards Guan Yue, who immediately approached Ouyang Shaohua and happily said, "Ouyang Sister, welcome to cheer me on. Was I a bit too much just now, making Helian Jiaolan feel so embarrassed?"
"Not at all, it's an Arena Match; there's no need to overthink it. When others attack, you have to fight back," Ouyang Shaohua replied lightly, surprised that Guan Yue would ask her such a question. It seemed he valued her opinion greatly, causing her face to flush slightly as she answered him. At that moment, her heart raced wildly, as if a little deer was jumping inside.
Guan Yue realized it made sense; there was no need for pity in the Arena. On the battlefield, it was a matter of life and death. As they walked and talked, those nearby who had come to watch began to whisper among themselves, noticing the budding connection between the two. What kind of connection? It could be seen from their shy expressions.
Guan Yue said directly to Ouyang Shaohua, "Ouyang Sister, I can only stay at Qilin Academy for one year; I've already agreed with the Dean that I will leave after a year. Helping you enter the Inner Courtyard may not happen now; I'm really sorry."
Ouyang Shaohua was startled; she hadn't expected Guan Yue would leave Qilin Academy. She urged him, "Why do you want to leave? The cultivation conditions here are excellent; it's the best in our Southern Source Empire. You shouldn't leave."
"To be honest, the things that have helped me the most here are the Illusory Array and Gravity Training Ground. I've already gone through them. There's nothing else here that interests me anymore. Only you and my friends in the dormitory make me feel attached," Guan Yue replied honestly without trying to mislead Ouyang Shaohua.
Ouyang Shaohua's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head even more, unable to look at Guan Yue; her eyes were fixed on the ground. Her mouth trembled as she struggled to speak. Inside her heart felt like fifteen buckets were being drawn from a well—her emotions were in turmoil.
Seeing Ouyang Shaohua's adorable expression made Guan Yue realize he hadn't considered her feelings when he spoke and had caused her misunderstanding. However, since she didn't seem repulsed by it, he felt happy inside and his mood improved significantly. Just walking together like this felt like happiness! Because he was with Ouyang Shaohua!
This would be his most beautiful memory of his life.
They walked for nearly an hour until they ran out of things to say. Guan Yue then escorted Ouyang Shaohua back to the dormitory before bouncing back to his own dormitory.
Guan Yue realized at that moment that he was a man!
Due to Guan Yue's battle with Helian Jiaolan, where he used a high level of Mental Strength, the second place in the Tiger Lion Ranking refused to fight him. Guan Yue successfully claimed the second spot in the Tiger Lion Ranking, and three days before the mid-semester assessment, he issued a challenge to Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian.
The rising momentum of Guan Yue intimidated Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi, making them dare not act recklessly in front of him anymore!
The speed of Guan Yue's challenge became headline news at Qilin Academy. Students' perceptions of Guan Yue began to change; they now felt that it wasn't that Qilin Academy was preventing Guan Yue from entering the Inner Courtyard, but rather that Guan Yue himself had no interest in it! Because now, Guan Yue was like the sun rising in the east, shining brightly, showcasing his impressive abilities and remarkable achievements. Over the past few months, students believed that as long as he was given time, he would undoubtedly become a standout at Qilin Academy!
Meanwhile, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was under immense pressure. When he heard Ruo Yi recount the scene of Guan Yue battling Helian Jiaolan, he hesitated. Although he had already reached the Superior Realm, he was not as proficient in Mental Strength as Helian Jiaolan. He worried whether he could withstand an attack from Guan Yue using Mental Strength.
However, his strong sense of pride made it impossible for him to refuse Guan Yue's challenge. He had no choice but to fight for his honor and for a future spot in the Inner Courtyard. There was no turning back for him. His square face was filled with seriousness.
The duel between the two was scheduled for this afternoon.
While Guan Yue fought against Helian Jiaolan, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian prepared for his confrontation with Guan Yue. He had many strategies up his sleeve. He must defeat Guan Yue, and he must win the heart of Ouyang Shaohua.
As the first place in the Tiger Lion Ranking, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had to defend his honor!
Almost all of the thousands of new students gathered around the Arena, and some upperclassmen came to observe. The atmosphere was lively. The disciple from the Inner Courtyard, Xiahou Xiong, even set up a betting station at the competition site, and the well-known Wise Star also joined in on the excitement, surprising many new students. Many placed their bets. Of course, most believed that Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian would win, as he had held first place for a long time, which had become common knowledge—something difficult to change.
Ouyang Shaohua eagerly placed her bet; she naturally wagered on Guan Yue to win, putting down two hundred taels of gold. Then she quietly sat in the audience, waiting to watch the match in the Arena.
Confidently, Guan Yue also placed a bet on himself; he only had three taels of gold, which was all that Futian Shangren had left him as capital.
Then he stood on the Arena and started chatting with the Host Teacher. This teacher was the same one who hosted the competition between Guan Yue and Helian Jiaolan. The teacher smiled at Guan Yue and said, "Leave some face for Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian; we all have to get along in the future."
Guan Yue knew this was the teacher indirectly criticizing him, so he nodded repeatedly. However, in his heart, Guan Yue thought, "Leaving him face means not giving me face. Why should I let him? Why should he be able to bully others? The debts from Shui Yining should be counted against him. The debts from Yin Jingjing should also be counted against him. I can't deal with Teacher He right now, but Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian, I will definitely make you pay."
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian arrived, his tall and muscular figure was very impressive. His square face had sharp angles, almost like a chiseled visage, exuding strong masculinity. His thick eyebrows were striking, and his expression was cold and natural, showing no special emotions. Many of his fans began to cheer, which made Guan Yue reminisce about how big-name entertainment stars made their entrances in his previous life! So he sneered and walked to the center of the Arena, standing opposite Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian.
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian will win!
Guan Yue will win!
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian is invincible!
Guan Yue is versatile!
Various voices rose and fell from below the Arena. Guan Yue didn't expect that he would have such a day and so many fans; he felt a sense of achievement in his heart, realizing that many people could see his efforts.
Ruo Yi looked at the two on stage and said to Wang Renwei, "Do you think Great Power is enough to defeat Guan Yue?"
"Absolutely. After all, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian is the first place. He entered school with Attainment cultivation, much stronger than Guan Yue. Defeating him will be easy," Wang Renwei replied. Since getting close to Xiahou Xiong, he had also become arrogant, directly calling Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian by name.
Ruo Yi secretly shook his head; he was genuinely worried for Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian—Guan Yue was not an easy target!
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian waved vigorously at the crowd; he was thoroughly enjoying this moment, which made everyone below cheer even louder: "Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian is invincible! Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian is invincible!"
The fans of Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian were quite numerous, with cheers rising one after another.
Guan Yue observed this scene and secretly sneered, then turned to the Host Teacher, indicating that the competition should begin.
With a command from the Host Teacher, the match finally commenced.
The audience began to calm down and focused on the two individuals in the Arena, knowing that a fierce battle was about to unfold.
Guan Yue was the first to launch an attack on Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. He initiated his assault using his fist technique infused with golden Willpower against Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. The Li Zu Divine Fist was unleashed, surprising Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian with its formidable presence.
Could the Li Zu Divine Fist really generate such momentum? Guan Yue only used the first four forms of the Li Zu Divine Fist, yet it sent a terrifying Willpower rushing towards Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. That Willpower was as hard as iron, firm and unyielding. Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had calculated everything but did not expect Guan Yue to utilize the power of Willpower, which was indeed his weak point. He was merely reckless and fearless!
As Guan Yue's fist technique bore down like a landslide, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian remained composed and countered with his proficient swordsmanship while attempting to confuse Guan Yue with a spell he had secretly learned: Transforming Mountains and Rivers.
This Transforming Mountains and Rivers technique could be classified as an Illusory Array, but it was unique in that it required powerful Origin Energy to drive it, thus needing even more Origin Energy to break it. Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian intended to test Guan Yue's Origin Energy condition with this move.
Seeing Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian strike at him with his sword, Guan Yue did not dare to be careless and immediately drew out the Azure Dragon Yin-Yang Sword to clash against Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian's Greatsword. As long as he fought with all his might against Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian, he had no time to organize his artifacts for an offensive. With a loud clang, both were forced back a step.
Guan Yue quickly realized that Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was indeed a strength-type Warrior whose power should not be underestimated. His Origin Energy was likely on par with his own; he could only barely match him after applying golden Willpower. It seemed that to defeat him, he would need to enhance the power of his Willpower.
After their clash, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was also secretly astonished; ten-year-old Guan Yue was surprisingly close in Origin Energy to himself at fourteen. It appeared that Guan Yue's cultivation level should be at least mid-level Attainment or even Superior Realm. Since Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian himself was at Superior Realm, their levels were nearly equal, suggesting they were evenly matched. With this realization, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian calmed down and let out a long breath. This Guan Yue was nothing extraordinary after all.
