Chapter 162 – Winning over and over again (Monthly Votes)
Chen Song’s heart is dripping blood, if this continues, I’m afraid that all of his talismans will be accounted for here.
But these talismanic seals, Chen Song originally did not think, a battle to use up ah.
This Xu Chuniang simply did not speak of martial virtues ah, a large number of talisman seals were thrown over, so that he did not even have a chance to catch his breath, and had to take out talisman seals for defense.
Was she planning to smash all the talisman seals in one go?
Chen Song’s heart ached so much that his face was twisted, looking at the other party once again taking out a large handful of talismanic seals from his storage ring, his eyelids twitched, “Stop, count me as scared of you, I admit defeat!”
He had already consumed half of the talisman seals he had prepared, if the remaining half were all consumed, it would be meaningless to win this duel.
He was a pure talisman cultivator, he didn’t have many means to fight against the enemy, he mainly relied on the talisman seals to win.
If he lost the help of the talisman seals, he would have no chance of winning the subsequent battles.
Xu Chuniang gave a beat, put the talisman seal in his hand into his storage ring, and jumped down from the ring.
Chen Song was furious. Originally, he thought he could win this point. But who knew that Xu Chuniang was also a talisman cultivator and had so many talisman seals?
After this battle, the other three of the ten groups were impressed with Xu Chuniang.
With a large number of talisman seals, the strength of a talisman cultivator could not be underestimated.
Apart from the power of the rune seals, there was another reason.
A real duel between other people, the loss of spiritual energy was real, whereas the duel between Xu Chuniang and Chen Song seemed to be fought in a heated manner, but in reality, the spiritual energy used by the two of them was minuscule, and the consumption was almost negligible.
At the time of the finals, this was undoubtedly advantageous.
For a time, several people in the group had different thoughts.
Several people had originally thought that Xu Chuniang was at best a bit strong, plus a bit more lucky to make it to the finals.
But right now, they realized that the newcomer they thought was lucky might have relied on more than just luck.
The competition continued, only one round down, the atmosphere was a lot heavier than before.
Before the hour was up, Chen Song went on stage for the second time and faced number five, winning a hard-fought point.
So far, in addition to Xu Chuniang and Chen Song each scoring a point, the female cultivator in the group who had previously introduced Xu Chuniang as Liu Yujia also scored a point.
However, Chen Song had competed in two matches to win this point. Xu Chuniang and Liu Yujia had only competed in one match, and one had yet to begin.
After more than an hour, Xu Chuniang finally waited for the second match.
This time, her opponent was number three, Liu Yujia’s defeated opponent.
Just as the crowd guessed that Xu Chuniang would continue to use her talismanic seal attack, she directly offered up a large green-colored cauldron and smashed it towards her opponent.
Seeing this scene, the crowd speculated if she had run out of talisman seals.
“Senior Sister Xu has definitely used up almost all of her talisman seals, or there aren’t many left. When she fought with Senior Brother Chen earlier, she used all intermediate level talisman seals, consuming several times as many talisman seals as Senior Brother Chen.”
“I don’t think that’s necessarily true, before she fought with Senior Brother Chen Song, Senior Sister Xu never used half of her talisman seals, people didn’t even know that she was a talisman cultivator. It was senior brother Chen who first took out a large number of talisman seals before senior sister Xu countered with them.”
“What you say is not unreasonable, but how do you know that Senior Sister Xu wasn’t saving her cards for the finals when she didn’t use the talisman seals earlier. She suddenly took out so many talisman seals on the occasion of the sparring match that even Senior Brother Chen, who is a talisman cultivator, was shocked, not to mention the others.”
While the disciples were arguing, the duel on the field had already been decided.
Xu Chuniang made the Green Stripe Tripod tiger-like, and used it as an attack to smash towards her opponent. Number three’s own strength was relatively average, and it didn’t take long for him to be smashed, directly seriously injured and unconscious.
Seeing this, an uncle of the Foundation Establishment Master at the side brought the person down from the ring, and at the same time pronounced the verdict:
“Xu Chuniang wins, scoring one point, totaling two points.”
A burst of gasps and cheers erupted from outside the arena, “Senior Sister Xu has won again, taking two points in one day, if she wins two more matches tomorrow, won’t she securely enter the top ten?”
“That’s true, but it’s not easy to win two more matches, not to mention that Senior Sister Liu Yujia is no vegetarian, her strength is strong.”
A disciple beside him shook his head at the words, he didn’t think too highly of Xu Chuniang, believing that she had come to the end of her rope.
“On the tenth group side, I’m a bit more optimistic about Senior Sister Liu, Senior Sister Xu looks powerful, that’s because she hasn’t encountered a truly strong person yet.”
The disciple who spoke earlier didn’t hold back and rolled his eyes in return.
“What do you mean you haven’t met a truly strong person, isn’t senior brother Tang Li strong, he’s the one who was able to injure senior sister Lan Wei. I think Senior Sister Xu’s strength is the one that’s being severely underestimated, I’m betting that she’s the biggest dark horse in this year’s Outer Sect Competition, able to kill her way out of the ten groups and make it to the top ten!”
“How can that be, senior sister Liu is the strongest in the ten groups, if you don’t believe me, just wait and watch tomorrow!”
“Hmph, I’m still afraid of you, around tomorrow the two will have a battle, at that time there will naturally be a difference.”
Arguments such as these were common amongst the disciples, only except for the three, four and six groups which were not disputed, for the top ten candidates in the other groups, there were more or less different views.
Some of these people who were considered to have a chance of entering the top ten had already won two games in a row, such as Ning Ke’er and Xu Chuniang. Some had only won one game, but still had one left to start, such as Liu Yujia.
Those like Chen Song, who had won two matches and only scored one point, were not within the scope of the crowd’s conversation.
“Senior Brother Song Wen’an from Group 2 also scored two points today, do you guys think he has a chance?”
Song Wen’an had a head full of white hair, which made him stand out in the crowd of participating disciples.
This was already his sixth time participating in the Outer Sect Competition. He had strength, but his strength was limited, so although he had had the experience of entering the finals twice, his best result was just two points.
“If I remember correctly, Senior Brother Song is nearly a hundred years old this year, right? I watched him in two battles, and even though he won in the end, it wasn’t an easy win.”
“In the second group, besides senior brother Song, there was also a Tang Tang who won by two points. I think Senior Brother Song definitely can’t beat Tang Tang, and to put it bluntly, even if Senior Brother Song wins Tang Tang by fluke and advances to the top ten and gets the Foundation Establishment Pill, will he be able to successfully establish his foundation with the Foundation Establishment Pill?”
The crowd was silent, but in their hearts, they were very agreeable to these words, cultivator foundation building was originally not something that could be easily built just by taking foundation building pills.
There were many people who had taken the Foundation Establishment Pill and then failed to establish their foundation and thus perished.
With Song’s old age, I’m afraid that he wouldn’t be able to withstand the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill and would explode and die.
As time passed, the last match of the day was ushered in.
Liu Yuja stepped into the ring against number five who had lost to Chen Song.
Number five had been in a bitter battle against Chen Song and had consumed a large amount of spiritual energy.
Although he had done his best to recover in the past two to three hours, his strength was still affected, and his play was even worse than the previous match.
