Chapter 660: Compare notes
There was a moment of silence that hung in the air before two people went forward.
One of them was Lin Fan's disciple, Xiao Ming.
She was the one that led the disciples of the Love Sect, the one that they recognized as the top disciple because she was the disciple of the sect master.
But it wasn't just because she was the sect master's disciple that they all took her as their leader.
It was simply because she was also the strongest among them.
The other one that stepped forward had been known as the leader of the young geniuses from the Mu Empire.
His name was Yu Huang, a son of one of the generals that had been in the meeting to decide who would go.
But it wasn't just because he was the son of one of Mu Bao Bao's close generals that he was chosen as their leader.
It was the same as with Xiao Ming, he was the strongest out of the young geniuses chosen from the Mu Empire.
After the two of them stepped forward, they looked at each other before turning to Elder Qian's disciple and introducing themselves at the same time.
"Xiao Ming, disciple of the Love Sect's sect master."
"Yu Huang, disciple of the Love Sect."
The introduction for one of them was clearly more prestigious than the other since one was the disciple of the sect master. However, they had both stepped forward to introduce themselves at the same time.
Both Elder Qian and his disciple raised one brow when they saw this, but they decided not to think too much about it. The Love Sect clearly had their own circumstances and there was nothing to gain from getting involved.
In fact, knowing about this now might be beneficial to them since they could exploit it when the time comes.
But that was for later.
Elder Qian's disciple had another task at hand for now.
Looking at Elder Qian and receiving a nod as a sign, the disciple known as Tu Ying came forward to say, "If possible, I wish to compare notes with the friends from the Love Sect before the tournament begins. I think that both of our sides would benefit from this."
As soon as they heard this, the hostile look in the eyes of the disciples became stronger.
There were many that wanted to come forward to fight this Tu Ying, but they were being held back by Xiao Ming and Yu Huang.
Both of them knew that there was more to this than meets the eye.
It was clear that they were trying to provoke them into fighting, so they couldn't rashly go forward to accept this fight.
Instead, they had to leave this matter to the elders.
So both Xiao Ming and Yu Huang turned back to look at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan had his eyes narrowed as he looked at Tu Ying, almost as if he was sizing him up.
Tu Ying had been surprised to see Lin Fan looking at him, but he didn't back down as he met Lin Fan's gaze.
After a while, Lin Fan revealed a smile and said, "This little friend from the Martial Might Sect, of course we would be happy to compare notes with you."
As soon as they heard this, both Xiao Ming and Yu Huang looked again at Lin Fan as if they were saying that they wanted to volunteer to fight. However, Lin Fan didn't look in their direction at all.
Instead, he turned to Tie Yong who was standing beside Senior Brother Ying.
Senior Brother Ying and Tie Yong were both caught off guard by Lin Fan's gaze falling on Tie Yong, but they didn't back down as Tie Yong just gave a nod to show that he was ready.
Lin Fan revealed a smile before saying, "Elder Ying, how about we let your disciple spar with this friend here?"
Senior Brother Ying gave a nod as he replied, "Yes, sect master." Then he said to Tie Yong, "Go ahead."
Tie Yong cupped his hands to both Senior Brother Ying and Lin Fan before walking forward to stand in front of Tu Ying.
As he walked past Xiao Ming, she patted him on the back and whispered a few words to him. After hearing these words, he looked back at her with a smile as if he was saying, "Leave this to me."
Xioa Ming gave a nod in response.
When Tie Yong was in front of Tu Ying, he once again cupped his hands as he said, "Tie Yong, disciple of the Love Sect's grand elder."
Tu Ying narrowed his eyes to look at Tie Yong, but one could clearly see that there was a dissatisfied look in his eyes.
It was almost as if…he didn't think that Tie Yong was worthy of fighting him.
But he couldn't say anything like that when he was representing the Martial Might Sect.
The only thing that he could do was cup his hands and gestured to the garden on the side.
It seemed like he was saying that they fight over there to not get the others involved.
As if to support his disciple, Elder Qian raised his hand and caused a platform to rise out of the ground. It seemed that they had already prepared everything and were just waiting to use it.
This was a courtyard that had been prepared by the Martial Might Sect, so it wasn't strange if they knew about this. The only problem was that this was prepared by the Martial Might Sect.
There was a very high chance that there was some kind of trap that was set in this arena.
Still, Tie Yong didn't seem to worry as he jumped onto the stage and waited for Tu Ying.
Seeing how straightforward Tie Yong was, Tu Ying couldn't help revealing a smile.
This wasn't a smile like he was looking at a sucker, but rather a smile like he appreciated how straightforward Tie Yong was. It was a smile that almost seemed to be saying, "If only we weren't enemies, we might have been friends."
With that smile, Tu Ying also jumped onto the stage and faced Tie Yong.
With the two of them standing in front of each other like this, they both cupped their hands and said, "Please."
After that, they didn't hesitate to attack each other.
Tie Yong didn't use anything fancy as he just charged right at his enemy.
Tu Ying didn't charge forward, but rather moved back a few steps to create space before bringing his hand up. As soon as he did, there were piles of earth that suddenly rose up from around the stage.
Tu Ying's power was to control the earth, just like his name.
This kind of power was special since it was only those that controlled elemental energy that could do something like this. Tu Ying might still be in the Qi Gathering Realm, but he was someone that could control earth elemental energy.
If he fought seriously, there was a large possibility that he would be able to fight those in the Foundation Realm.
But Tie Yong wasn't scared of this at all.
He just pushed straight forward with his fists as if he didn't have any fear.
Tu Ying had admired Tie Yong's straightforwardness before, but seeing him charge at his attack like this…
Tu Ying suddenly revealed a disdainful smile and said under his breath, "What a fool."
He didn't hold back at all as he gathered all his attacks to slam into Tie Yong. It seemed like he was planning on burying Tie Yong completely with all the dirt that he had gathered.
But Tie Yong's fist came right at the mounds of dirt that were in front of him and as it approached, there seemed to be a glow that appeared around it.
When they made contact, there was no resistance at all as the dirt in front of Tie Yong was blown away by his fist.
No, it wasn't Tie Yong's fist that blew it away.
Rather, it was the layer of light that was around Tie Yong's fist that sent the dirt flying back.
Once the dirt had been blown away, Tie Yong didn't hesitate to continue charging forward at Tu Ying.
There was a trace of panic that appeared in Tu Ying's eyes when he saw Tie Yong coming at him still, but he quickly recovered. Raising his hands again, there were more mounds of dirt that were summoned around him that went at Tie Yong.
At the same time, there was dirt that was gathered on the stage that created barriers around him that blocked Tie Yong's way forward.
But no matter what Tu Ying threw at Tie Yong, there wasn't a single thing that was able to stop him. It was like he was an unstoppable force that was intent on making his way to Tu Ying.
That was because the cultivation technique that Tie Yong used was called the Unstoppable Diamond Body Technique. This was a powerful technique that required a firm mind, which was Tie Yong's specialty.
So in his hands, this cultivation technique was truly unstoppable.
But Tu Ying wasn't out of it yet.
He didn't give up as he used his mobility to move around the stage while he continued throwing more mounds of dirt at Tie Yong.
Tie Yong just kept blowing it away and coming right at Tu Ying.
It seemed like a never ending cycle of one chasing the other.
But it would eventually end one way or another.
