However, Ouyang Shaohua did not give him too many opportunities. Since the Grand Elder was the first to take out the divine artifact, Ouyang Shaohua did not hesitate and directly attacked the Grand Elder with the artifact. Her sword energy, over two hundred meters long, swept towards the Grand Elder, who could only dodge; otherwise, he would be injured, which made him feel very aggrieved.
At this moment, he did not hold back. Once he reached a certain height, he swung down towards Ouyang Shaohua with great momentum. He fully utilized Origin Energy to unleash Blade Qi that extended over a hundred meters long. His current goal was to force Ouyang Shaohua off the Arena, which could be considered a draw.
However, Ouyang Shaohua felt that the pressure from the Grand Elder was far from enough. Therefore, she aimed to compel the Grand Elder to exert more effort; otherwise, it would not benefit her much.
Ouyang Shaohua dodged and then executed a full 360-degree spin, forcing her sword energy out to nearly three hundred meters, causing the Grand Elder to retreat repeatedly. His blade light could no longer reach Ouyang Shaohua, leaving him in a passive position.
The Grand Elder became anxious. He sidestepped and used all his strength to quickly form a mass of energy in front of him. The mass rapidly expanded until he could no longer control it, at which point he suddenly hurled it towards Ouyang Shaohua.
Ouyang Changhai knew this was the Grand Elder's Source Qi, which had immense power and could definitely harm Ouyang Shaohua. He immediately warned her, "Ouyang Shaohua, be careful." He understood that the Grand Elder was now enraged; Ouyang Shaohua had completely disregarded him, leaving him no choice but to resort to underhanded tactics.
However, what he did not expect was that Ouyang Shaohua actually needed his anger and the fury that followed. At this moment, the Grand Elder was truly embodying his title; his Combat Power reached its peak and could potentially unleash Ouyang Shaohua's maximum potential.
When the Grand Elder's Source Qi surged uncontrollably towards Ouyang Shaohua, she finally felt a hint of fear and trepidation.
This was the kind of power that could threaten Ouyang Shaohua.
This was the Primordial Power of a peak Disciple from the Mysterious Heaven Realm—extremely refined and terrifying. It represented the highest level of power from the Heavenly Domain; however, it still could not truly suppress Ouyang Shaohua. Although she possessed less Source Power than Guan Yue, she had activated powers granted by the Celestial Sovereign and also carried some energy from her own developed Celestial Sovereign essence within her body. Therefore, strictly speaking, Ouyang Shaohua already possessed part of the power of the Wasteland Sacred Continent and had surpassed the highest power of the Dragon Python Celestial Domain. Thus, when the Grand Elder attacked her with Primordial Power, it no longer posed a lethal threat.
Under this pressure, Ouyang Shaohua also utilized Primordial Power—combining Source Power from Yongning Continent with part of Celestial Sovereign's Primordial Power to counteract it.
At this moment, Ouyang Shaohua did not directly break through the Grand Elder's source attack but instead maintained an appropriate level of suppression to allow her body to absorb more of the primordial energy left behind by Celestial Sovereign.
Meanwhile, the Grand Elder misjudged the situation. He believed that Ouyang Shaohua could not counter his source attack; thus, he continuously increased his efforts in attacking her with source energy.
This was precisely what Ouyang Shaohua desired. She gradually increased her output to adapt to the Grand Elder's suppression and achieve balance.
Seeing hope for victory, the Grand Elder relentlessly intensified his output of Primordial Power while Ouyang Shaohua fought against his suppression and worked hard to digest and absorb the Source Power granted to her by Celestial Sovereign.
The two individuals entered a very delicate realm.
One believed they were about to overwhelm their opponent, thus intensifying their attacks, while the other was moderately resisting and striving to absorb and digest the opposing energy. Each had their own desires, but their goals were different.
Ouyang Shaohua was struggling greatly due to absorbing the energy provided by the Celestial Sovereign. Sweat poured down her face, and her body showed signs of exhaustion, swaying as she found herself in a very difficult situation.
The crowd from the Ouyang Family began to cheer, as they saw that the Grand Elder was on the verge of victory.
The disciples of the Ouyang Family also believed that Ouyang Shaohua was about to fail; however, they deeply admired her for being able to hold her ground against the Grand Elder for such a long time.
They started to view this girl from Yongning Continent with new respect. They all realized that a new star was rising. She would be unstoppable and forge ahead.
At this moment, the one suffering the most was the Grand Elder. He had been close to defeating Ouyang Shaohua, yet she continued to hold on. He increased his attacks repeatedly, but Ouyang Shaohua managed to resist fiercely without conceding.
After exerting himself repeatedly, he found he could no longer increase his output, yet Ouyang Shaohua still resisted him tenaciously and did not yield.
He watched as Ouyang Shaohua was drenched in sweat; despite this, her ability to resist did not diminish. Half an hour passed, then an hour, and Ouyang Shaohua still did not concede. On the contrary, her complexion improved, and her vital energy surged more vigorously.
Eventually, the Grand Elder gradually understood that Ouyang Shaohua aimed to use his suppression to achieve some purpose of her own. This left him both amused and exasperated. It seemed he could not win against this girl; it was time to end this, as he did not want to be used for her benefit.
Having realized this, the Grand Elder leaped up and called out loudly, "Let's stop. We'll call it a draw. Ouyang Shaohua is indeed impressive; she is a rising star from our Ancients. We are pleased."
As he landed on the ground, he immediately turned to Ouyang Changhai and spoke about serious matters: "Ouyang Clan Leader, your family has produced an extraordinary talent in Ouyang Shaohua. With the Dragon Python Celestial Domain Ranking Match approaching, I believe she is very suitable to represent our Ouyang Family. As for your smaller branch of the Ouyang Family, you should return to our main family."
The young members of the Ouyang Family felt secretly delighted upon hearing the Grand Elder's words; now they could confidently claim to be true members of the Ouyang Family rather than just a small branch from a mixed residential area.
However, Ouyang Changhai was contemplating how to gain benefits from this situation. He knew that Ouyang Shaohua's performance today would undoubtedly attract interest from the main Ouyang Family, and they would surely want to bring her into their larger clan. He could not let them gain Ouyang Shaohua without offering something in return.
Thus, Ouyang Changhai smiled wryly and said, "Grand Elder, our family is humble and has only recently produced a genius at great cost. We do not dare to contend with your large family; we merely hope you can consider our specific difficulties and provide us with some support. We would be immensely grateful."
The Grand Elder laughed heartily and replied, "Ouyang Clan Leader understands well! Speak freely about your requests; we will do our best to accommodate them."
The two discussed and walked away, leaving the crowd to begin cheering. They could not contain their joy. Although they often claimed to be indifferent towards the Ouyang Family, deep down, they all longed for the recognition of the Ouyang Family, after all, the Ouyang Family was one of the most powerful forces in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain. As descendants of the Ouyang Family, not being able to enter it was a bitter truth only they understood.
Now, due to Ouyang Shaohua's outstanding performance, they could finally return to the Ouyang Family, and their feelings were quite complex.
On the other hand, the disciples from the Ouyang Family felt secretly discouraged. How could a Disowned Clan member manage to fight evenly with the Grand Elder? It was humiliating for them! Seeing everyone cheer only fueled their anger. Although it wasn't directed at them, it still made them uncomfortable; after all, it was a moment where Ouyang Shaohua shone brightly while the Ouyang Family lost face.
Ouyang Shaohua felt a pang of regret but could only smile bitterly; she had already gained some advantage and couldn't always let others be her stepping stones.
As for the transaction between the Grand Elder and Ouyang Gonghai, she didn't want to know about it at all. Right now, she was only thinking about going to the Waydao Empire and being by Guan Yue's side. She didn't care about anything else.
After much bargaining, the Grand Elder finally reached an agreement with Ouyang Changhai: Ouyang Shaohua would participate in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain Ranking Match, and Ouyang Changhai and his group would be fully integrated into the Ouyang Family, which would provide them with equal treatment and support as other members of the family.
Ouyang Changhai also requested that the Ouyang Family send fewer members to suppress the Zhong Kai and Situ Lei Ting families and subtly mentioned the Treasure of Flying Dragon Cave. The Grand Elder readily agreed to help them seize the Treasure from Flying Dragon Cave but stated that the Ouyang Family would take one-third of it.
This was also a standard practice within the Ouyang Family, and Ouyang Changhai accepted it. The two enjoyed a pleasant conversation, both satisfied.
Thus, next, the Grand Elder and Ouyang Changhai persuaded Ouyang Shaohua to participate in the Dragon Python Domain Major Power Ranking Tournament. Although she was reluctant to go, Ouyang Changhai encouraged her: "Ouyang Shaohua, you should know how vast the Dragon Python Celestial Domain is. Traveling outside is very difficult. If you join the Ouyang Family, they have Giant Warships and large flying ships that are incredibly fast; traveling elsewhere will be much quicker. Moreover, participating in the Ranking Match will allow you to meet many outstanding disciples from the Dragon Python Celestial Domain, which will be immensely beneficial for you."
Ouyang Changhai's words resonated with Ouyang Shaohua. She thought that perhaps Guan Yue would also participate in the Ranking Match, and with the help of the Ouyang Family's Battleship, it would indeed be much more convenient to reach Waydao Empire; otherwise, walking there would take at least several years.
So she agreed: "I need Ouyang Feixue to accompany me."
