My Golden Core is a Star, do you call this cultivating?

Chapter 28: Jiang Ran’s Worries

"Begin!"
With the sound of the bell, the final battle began.

The disciples of the Divine Light Sect all watched the stage with worried expressions.

At this moment, Qi Yuan also moved.

Since the opponent was holding a Foundation Establishment magic weapon, it was best to prevent the opponent from unleashing its full power.

Although he wasn't afraid, there was no need to complicate matters when it could be resolved easily.

Stealth Technique!

In an instant, Qi Yuan's figure disappeared from the stage.

Chu Yundong was stunned for a moment. Where did he go?

At that moment, a massive fist landed on the back of his head.

Bang!
Chu Yundong didn't have time to react and was knocked out with one punch!
Having played games for so long, Qi Yuan had rich experience in fighting monsters. With skills like quick scoping, dodging, and combo attacks, he could handle Chu Yundong effortlessly.

Qi Yuan knocked out Chu Yundong with a single punch, then cast a Dust-Cleaning Spell on his fist. Who knows if Chu Yundong had dandruff?

He raised his fist like a champion boxer and said, "I won."

Unfortunately, there were no sexy ring girls holding up cards for him, nor were there any bold ones giving him a kiss.

Only the bearded old man, King Changshan, stood up and waved enthusiastically at Qi Yuan.

"Divine Light Sect, Qi Yuan wins!"

With this announcement, everyone finally noticed what had happened on the stage.

Chu Tianxiong's face darkened as he looked at the fallen Chu Yundong: "Useless!"

Patriarch Baiji was also momentarily stunned but ultimately said nothing.

The other sect disciples were not surprised. After all, Qi Yuan was the top disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak. Even if there was no underhanded scheme in this Foundation Establishment Tournament, he still had a good chance of winning.

Of course, without the Seven-Colored Peak Master's prior notice, the tournament wouldn't have been this harmonious, and the outcome would have been uncertain.

"No wonder he's the top disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak!"

"He doesn't just cultivate mana; his fighting skills are also deep!"

"Senior Brother, how did you win?" a disciple of the Divine Light Sect asked.

In their eyes, Qi Yuan was a disciple of the Obsession Lineage, with good talent, but as for fighting skills?

Everyone knew that the top disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak never visited the Martial Hall to spar. He was obsessed with games or wandered around with a cleaver.

"Play more games," Qi Yuan answered sincerely.

The disciples laughed at this.

Qi Yuan stepped down from the stage, feeling relaxed.

The tournament had been hastily organized and would be wrapped up hastily.

As he stepped down, he saw a white-haired elder of the sect smiling kindly at him, holding a brown wooden box adorned with bird and fish carvings.

"Qi Yuan, this is the reward for this Foundation Establishment Tournament, the Grade One Foundation Establishment Spirit Item, the Yellow Flower Fruit!"

The elder handed the box to Qi Yuan.

Around him, disciples from the Divine Light Sect and other sects looked on with envy.

Even some elders were extremely envious.

Qi Yuan's eyes sparkled. Ten thousand spirit stones! This was worth ten thousand spirit stones!

The elder encouraged him, "I hope you can use this spirit item to establish your foundation soon and add to the sect's strength!"

Foundation Establishment? Qi Yuan didn't plan to use the Yellow Flower Fruit for that. He had a better option—Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

What Deacon Xu Renshan had mentioned about the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment was already ingrained in his mind.

Of course, he didn't say any of this. Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Qi Yuan bid farewell to the elders of the various sects and prepared to return to the Seven-Colored Peak.

"Young Brother Qi, given time, you might make it to the Tianjiao List of our Great Shang!

Now that the tournament is over, I'll go have a drink with your sect master," King Changshan said, waving his sleeve and leaving gracefully.

In the crowd, Chu Tianxiong looked at Qi Yuan, a flash of greed in his eyes.

At this moment, Qi Yuan seemed to notice Chu Tianxiong, showing a concerned expression: "Senior Brother, be careful recently. The blood calamity around you is getting stronger."

He felt that Chu Tianxiong was close to death. He just didn't know who the blood calamity would fall upon.

Chu Tianxiong's face grew darker: "Hmph, you should worry about your Junior Sister Jiang Ran. I see that she is the one with a blood calamity."

"Oh, really? I should do a divination for Junior Sister Jiang Ran," Qi Yuan said, as if he took Chu Tianxiong's words seriously.

[She is an ordinary cultivator. Recently, auspicious signs have appeared around her, indicating that something good is about to happen.]

After checking, Qi Yuan looked at Chu Tianxiong: "My divination tells me that Junior Sister Jiang Ran has something good happening. Maybe you should kowtow to her and share the good fortune. Maybe it will drive away your blood calamity."

Qi Yuan spoke sincerely, truly thinking about Chu Tianxiong's well-being.

"You..." Chu Tianxiong was furious, eventually leaving in a huff, unwilling to continue the conversation.

Qi Yuan sighed: "A dog bites Lü Dongbin; it doesn't recognize a good person's heart."

With that, he took the Yellow Flower Fruit and prepared to return to the Seven-Colored Peak.

Since his master thought so much of him, he should show some gratitude.

"Senior Brother Qi Yuan, thank you." At that moment, Jiang Ran approached, her eyes a bit red.

Today, Chu Tianxiong had caused her trouble, and she was terrified. It was Senior Brother Qi Yuan who had stepped up to help her.

Qi Yuan was puzzled: "Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for standing up for me and saying that... Chu Tianxiong has a blood calamity, which made him so angry," Jiang Ran explained, feeling a bit relieved.

Qi Yuan smiled: "I was telling the truth; he does have a blood calamity. Unfortunately, he doesn't listen. If he had kowtowed to you, maybe it would have been dispelled. People need to listen to advice. I once knew someone who did and became a big streamer."

Listening to Qi Yuan's rambling, Jiang Ran's worries eased a lot: "Senior Brother, you are so interesting."

But then she remembered something and said seriously: "Senior Brother, you must be careful of Chu Tianxiong. He is ruthless and vengeful. Don't leave the sect if you can."

"Why fear a little Chu Tianxiong? I can cut off his head with one swing, fulfilling his blood calamity," Qi Yuan said casually.

Knowing Qi Yuan's nonchalant attitude, Jiang Ran still warned: "Chu Tianxiong is a Foundation Establishment expert, and his wife is a concubine of the Black Chicken Old Demon. Because of this, he is highly favored in the Black Mountain Sect. You must be careful."

Qi Yuan raised an eyebrow: "I didn't know he was a cuckold; quite considerate of safety."

After finishing his conversation with Jiang Ran, Qi Yuan took the Yellow Flower Fruit and left.

Jiang Ran watched his departing figure and sighed: "With a Grade One Foundation Establishment Spirit Item, perhaps in five hundred years, Senior Brother could reach the Nascent Soul stage. By then, I wonder if I will still be alive."

The Black Chicken Old Demon loomed like a dark cloud over her heart.

The arrogant and ruthless Chu Tianxiong was a thorn in the side of all Divine Light Sect disciples, including Jiang Ran.

After all, the crimes Chu Tianxiong committed in Rong City recently had not been punished.

Learning that the Black Mountain Sect group would rest in Rong City for the night made Jiang Ran even more angry and powerless.
