Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

“Why?” Dong Xi asked, somewhat puzzled.

“I won’t teach any of my techniques to outsiders,” Su Cheng said coldly.

Dong Xi nodded and took out her communication Jade slip again, rejecting Qian Yun.

Qian Yun did not necessarily have to learn Dong Xi’s body cultivating technique. He just wanted to know how one could borrow the power of lightning to temper one’s body.

After being rejected by Dong Xi, Qian Yun went to find a body refining Senior Brother of the Masked Moon Sect.

Seeing Tie Zhu, Qian Yun instantly understood what was going on.

Since ancient times, body cultivators had always been a group of burly people. Their bodies were their weapons, their muscles were solid, and their blood vessels were vigorous.

But looking at Junior Sister Dong Xi again, her small arms and legs did not look like a body cultivator at all!

No wonder Dong Xi said that the cultivation technique could not be passed on to outsiders. Just from the fact that one would not be too big after cultivating it, one could tell that the cultivation technique was of a very high grade.

Body shape and figure were important for girls, but Qian Yun was a man, so it did not matter. Qian Yun used the movement technique he obtained in the past to barter with Tie Zhu, asking for his body refining technique.

Tie Zhu was also an honest person. He told Qian Yun that this cultivation technique was not very highand could only be cultivated to the fourth level. If he wanted to continue to train his body, he had to change to another cultivation technique.

Qian Yun still expressed his thanks and went to find Dong Xi with the cultivation technique he had obtained.

From then on, the disciples participating in the inter-sect tournament would see Qian Yun and Dong Xi together from time to time, both getting electrocuted on purpose.

In the beginning, everyone thought that there was something strange between the two. A few days later, Dong Xi found a Fellow Daoist who used a hammer as a weapon…

This was a story for later.

…

On the second day after Dong Xi and Qian Yun came to an agreement, Dong Xi went up to compete again. She won the first round and entered the top 400.

If she won this match, she would be able to enter the top 200 and return to the sect to make her two Masters proud.

Just as Dong Xi was about to set off, she ran into Liang Yan at the door.

“Eldest Senior Brother,” said Dong Xi.

Liang Yan patted Dong Xi’s shoulder in an uncharacteristic manner. Then, he gritted his teeth and took off the ornaments on his treasured sword, handing them over to Dong Xi.

“Little Junior Sister, fight well,” Liang Yan said.

This sword tassel was a treasure that Liang Yan had specially asked someone to forge. With the tassel’s enhancement, one could easily lock in on their opponent and not miss their sword techniques.

Dong Xi did not know what the sword tassel was for, but seeing Liang Yan’s expression as if he had sold his wife, she knew that it must be something good.

Dong Xi received it with both hands and immediately said, “Thank you for your reward, Senior Brother!”

Dong Xi’s words caused Liang Yan’s expression to change drastically. He immediately retracted his hand from the sword tassel and said, “Reward? This isn’t a reward. I’m only lending it to you!”

It was rare for Liang Yan to be so emotional. This was enough to show that although the sword tassel was not as good as a sword, it was definitely a treasure.

Dong Xi blinked her eyes and said, “Eldest Senior Brother, tell me the truth, how many crystals did you put in here?”

Having been exposed, Liang Yan coughed a few times in embarrassment and said, “Nothing much.”

Dong Xi’s eyes flashed with a hint of slyness. She deliberately said, “It’s good that it’s not much. This way, even if I lose, you won’t have any burden. It doesn’t matter if I lose, right?”

Liang Yan’s eyes went wide as he said sternly, “Junior Sister, you must win! Master said that if you win two rounds, you’ll get a reward when you go back.”

Dong Xi suppressed her laughter and pretended to sigh, “But Junior Sister’s ability is limited. If I can’t get the reward, then it’s destined. I should forget it.”

Liang Yan replied, “How old are you? How can you accept your fate? You can’t have such thoughts.”

“Senior Brother,” Dong Xi said deliberately. “If Junior Sister really wins, can you share half of the spirit stones you earn with me?”

Liang Yan was speechless.

So this was the little girl’s trap.

Even though Liang Yan felt his heart ache, he still nodded and said, “Alright! As long as you win, I’ll give you half of the spirit stones I earn!”

Only then did Dong Xi head to the arena.

When she passed by the betting area, Dong Xi took a look at it and saw that the odds were 1 to 6. She could not help but click his tongue.

Even the Senior Brothers of the Ningtian Sect would not dare to bet on Dong Xi’s victory. They had thought that the odds would be quite high, but it was only 1 to 6.

This also showed that Eldest Senior Brother did not bet just a little, he should have bet all his assets, right? No wonder the Eldest Senior Brother had taken out the sword tassel… Wasn’t this a must-win?

Originally, Dong Xi had also wanted to continue betting on herself, but from the looks of it, there was no need. 1 to 6, there was no profit to be made!
