Chapter 195: Battle Royale (3)
"Hmm?" Qin Lan felt a hint of disturbance in the air as he looks across the battlefield. Slowly but sure, he started to understand why the battle between them turned into a battle royale.
"It turned out that yesterday's battle was just a warm-up session for the Thunder Roaring Palace to boost their spirit. Today is where all the elites are coming out," Qin Lan said.
"Qing Yun, prepare a horse for me. I'll go into the battlefield when the situation is getting worst," he ordered. Panicked as she heard his order, Lu Qing Yun immediately prepared more than just a horse. Even Lu Yi and Huo Zunjie were on standby after getting called over by Lu Qing Yun.
"What's wrong, Qing Yun?" Lu Yi asked as he looked at Lu Qing Yun's flustered face. From the way she looks, it seems that something problematic is bound to happen in the middle of the fight.
"No idea... Our young master suddenly asked me to prepare a horse for him before the battle even started. If it's not about something is happening soon, do you think he'll give out an order like this?" Lu Qing Yun said.
It was almost a hunch that developed for serving by Qin Lan's side for so long.
"True... Based on our young master's attitude... Unless it's something concerning the big picture, he will not recklessly take action." Huo Zunje added.
"Really? Why didn't I notice about that before?" Lu Yi said.
"Of course, that's because you're an idiot! Has he ever ask you to do something that needs a lot of thought before recklessly charge forward?" Huo Zunjie used the tip of his Silver Ling Sword to knock Lu Yi's head.
"Ouch!"
"Hey, are you trying to pick a fight right now? Since our young master is not getting ready to leave yet, I don't mind sparring with you until he's here." Lu Yi took his slightly bulkier Bronze Xuan Sword and walked closer to Huo Zunjie.
"The two of you..." Lu Qing Yun squinted her eyes as she looks at the two.
"Do you want me to tied both of you on the horse until our young master is here?" she said.
"NO, MAAM!" the two quickly went back to their horses and standing straight like a soldier on their duty.
Lu Qing Yun sighed. After making sure that the two no longer trying to cause trouble while waiting for Qin Lan to come, she returned to his side and wait for his following order.
"Zunjie, let's cultivate harder until we surpass Qing Yun's cultivation. By that time, I'll see how she's going to tie me up on the tree or the horse whenever I cause trouble." Lu Yi jokes. But joking aside, Lu Qing Yun's cultivation is the strongest between the three is a fact everyone knew.
Right now, the two of them were barely qualified to call themself a proper first-level Bone Reconstruction Layer expert. But in Lu Qing Yun's case, she's already standing at the peak stage of first-level, with a hint of touching the second-level.
Or course, part of the reason her cultivation is much higher than the other two was due to her body's constitution. Her Lotus Fragrance Body is similar to a hundred thousand years Colored Lotus. The more she cultivates, the better she'll be without meeting with obstacles in between layers and levels.
While in terms of effort, what Lu Yi gave out to strengthen himself is nowhere lesser than the other two. If it was to be compared, he even uses more resources than Lu Qing Yun and Huo Zunjie to cultivate himself to his level today.
The reason for him to do so was that Lu Yi is the most ungifted talent between the three of them. Even if taking You Qing, Qiang Shou, Han Xue, and Yi Feng into comparison, his talent is still significantly lower than all of them.
All and all, Lu Yi was a complete commoner without a hint of talent in cultivation. And he knew it.
"Brother... We knew that even if you're a Peak-Level Bone expert, you'll be still going to get tied by her on the tree and getting whipped on your butt. Did you ever think about why our young master teaches her the whipping and subduing technique?" Huo Zunjie shook his head and sigh.
"Weren't it to hunt the Yao Beast?" Lu Yi answered. She just prefers using it on us to practice because whipping Yao Beast is dangerous." Lu Yi answered.
'Brother... It's to disciple both of us. And the four that in the battlefield right now... Do you think Qing Yun will have trouble with Yao Beast like us?' Huo Zunjie's hand itches to knock Lu Yi again.
"Anyway, don't you think the battlefield today is a little too quiet?" Lu Yi noticed something abnormal as he couldn't listen to the excitement and roar from the battlefield. Even the other two battlefields were totally quiet.
"That... True..." Huo Zunjie turned his head up to the cliff where everyone was spectating the battle and noticed that most of them had a disturbing expression plastered on their face.
'What happened?' Huo Zunjie asked himself.
...
...
"Move in and slaughter those coming from the Kuanglei Province! We'll destroy them in a single push and return for our rewards!" the disciples from the Thousand Blades Manor were in high spirit as they charged into the enemy's rank.
Spiritual Energy was at an all-time high, and all of them are in the mood to start killing their opponents. They're so confident that taking out a few opponents at the start of the battle is just a matter of time.
But regret came just as quick as a roaring thunder.
Close to ten disciple's head from the Thousand Sword Manor was 'Harvested' as a polearm came at them. Those with slightly higher cultivation managed to block the attack, but they still coughed a mouthful of blood from getting thrown back by the impact.
When they finally calmed themselves down to see what actually happened, the ground was already littered with corpses wearing their own Thousand Sword Manor's uniform.
"No... No... No!!!" that's the final word of the few disciples before they joined their fellow disciples. As one of the heads collected and piled on top of a cart.
