Chapter 386: Want to Play Gang Up With Me?

Xue Lan’er clutched her chest, her eyes bloodshot. She neither believed nor accepted this fact.

The icicles in the sky were completely annihilated by the Elemental Energy flames before it fell, and the battle platform was restored to its original state. It took only a few breaths of time for Lou Mu Yan to win, making people’s eyes widen.

“You thought the Grade 3 high-level Array you built was perfect?” Lou Mu Yan looked at Xue Lan’er with a smile.

Xue Lan’er raised her head and glared at her fiercely, saying: “How did you find that weak point?”

The weak point of that Array that Lou Mu Yan found was something that even she, who arranged the Array, neglected, but it unexpectedly became the key to breaking the Array.

“Well, it’s good for people to be confident, but being too conceited makes one doomed to failure.” Lou Mu Yan looked at her with ridicule, “Do you think I’ll give pointers to my enemies?”

She knew the drawbacks of Xue Lan’er’s Array, but she wouldn’t point it out.

“I didn’t use any other means to deal with precisely to completely destroy you—the Array that you’re so proud of is actually so vulnerable. What other means can you use, I’ll give you another chance.” Lou Mu Yan precisely wanted to break Xue Lan’er’s confidence.

Xue Lan’er closed her eyes. When she opened them, her gaze was much calmer, “That’s what you said.”

Immediately, Xue Lan’er gathered Elemental Energy at her feet and quickly manoeuvred around the battle platform. She was very fast, and many people couldn’t see her figure clearly, only phantoms passing by.

Gu Xiu and the others who were watching the battle from a distance couldn’t help but smile with ridicule.

“This Xue Lan’er actually wants to play footwork in front of Junior Sister Lou, she’s really humiliating herself.” Peng Yang and the others had seen Lou Mu Yan’s ghostly movements.

“Who’s to blame when she sent herself to her door to be insulted?” Jin Se pursed her lips in disdain, “If anyone dares to slander me behind my back, then I’d go directly to their door to beat them to death. Junior Sister Lou is still too kind.”

“…” Gu Xiu and the others couldn’t help but twitch the corners of their lips when they heard her words. Lou Mu Yan was too kind? Wasn’t this sentence too fake.

In their opinion, Lou Mu Yan was the truly ruthless one. If she just beat Xue Lan’er up, maybe she’d vent her anger, but if, on the battlefield, from beginning until the end, she didn’t even take the opponent to heart, waiting for the opponent to use their proudest and strongest means, then when she actually acted, it could completely destroy all the self-confidence of the other party.

They dared to conclude that if Xue Lan’er was defeated today, she would definitely give rise to a heart demon for both her cultivation and Arrays. If she didn’t meet any fortuitous opportunities in this life, it would be difficult to advance much.

This was truly ruthless—attacking the enemy silently, not wanting their life, but letting one fall from above the clouds to being stepped on into a quagmire.

After seeing her methods, they decided even more to not provoke her in the future. Lou Mu Yan was even more terrifying than the demoness Jin Se.

“Senior Sister Xue’s so fast, I didn’t expect her to have such footwork.” A small follower of Xue Lan’er in the Array School said cheerfully.

“Yeah! I didn’t expect that she hid quite deeply. She sure never showed these kinds of movements before.” There were also those who didn’t like Xue Lan’er who said sourly.

On the battle platform, Xue Lan’er constantly shifted and changed positions. She prided herself on being as light as a swallow, but she was like a jester in front of Lou Mu Yan who had extremely strong Mental Energy.

[PUCHI!] Suddenly, several black pills flew out from all directions and exploded in the air instantly.

A black smoke lingered and a scent that caused one to choke filled the air.

“This is Elemental Eliminating Poison, Xue Lan’er actually used such a sinister method, how shameless.” The pupils of the Talisman School couldn’t help but curse after recognising the black pill.

As the name suggested, Elemental Eliminating Poison was something that could eliminate Elemental Energy. Once a Sword Master inhaled it, the Elemental Energy would be lost and their whole body would be stiff, allowing others to slaughter however they wanted.

Although this poison wasn’t listed as a banned poison on this Continent, but few people would use it. After all, this method wasn’t righteous and couldn’t be brought to the light.

“It’s over, Junior Sister Lou is in danger.” Many pupils of the Talisman School looked at the battle platform anxiously.

The pupils of the Array School were also somewhat conflicted at this moment. On one hand, they hoped that Xue Lan’er would win, on the other hand, they felt that her victory by this method was a little incompetent.

Just when most of the pupils thought that Lou Mu Yan had been eroded by the poisonous smoke and left to Xue Lan’er to deal with, she waved her sleeve and a cyan-black firebird emerged from her sleeve.

The firebird chirped, opened its beak, and sucked in all the poisonous gas in the air. It then revealed a humane expression, as if unsatisfied.

“Xue Lan’er, do you still have anymore Elemental Eliminating Pills? Give a few more.” Lou Mu Yan said with a smile as she hooked her finger, and the firebird flew to her wrist.

This was the separate Spirit Flame that she had refined with those snake gallbladders and extreme poison. The food it loved the most was also extreme poison.

Seeing this, Xue Lan’er was so angry that she spat out another mouthful of blood. She paid a lot of money to obtain those Elemental Eliminating Pills. She originally thought that she could restrain Lou Mu Yan, then humiliate her, but she didn’t expect it to be resolved with just one move.

She wasn’t reconciled! Could it be that this woman was her nemesis?

“Since there’s no more Elemental Eliminating Pills, then this game should end now.” Lou Mu Yan tapped gently, and the cyan-black firebird disappeared from her wrist.

A strong sword aura from Xue Lan’er attacked from behind. Lou Mu Yan tapped her toes and disappeared in place, and the sword aura fell to the ground.

Immediately, Xue Lan’er’s body flew upside down from mid-air and landed heavily below the battle platform. Only then did Lou Mu Yan’s figure loom from the air.

What surprised the pupils was how Lou Mu Yan avoided the sword aura attack from Xue Lan’er. They didn’t see it clearly at all.

“Sure isn’t fun, how easily you can be beaten.” Lou Mu Yan furrowed her brows in disgust, “I originally thought that since you injured and slandered me behind my back, I’d play with you a bit more, but you’re too disappointing.”

“You…” Xue Lan’er didn’t expect that apart from the fact that Lou Mu Yan broke her proud Array with a single blow, the movement technique she had kept secret for so long as her trump card would also be so vulnerable in front of her opponent.

At this moment, she suddenly felt disheartened. She was unreconciled, and she couldn’t believe that she lost so easily to this hateful woman after preparing for so long.

“‘Trying to steal the chicken only to end up losing the rice’, Old man Luo, there are quite a few scums in your Array School. Do you need my pupils to help clean up your house!” Huo Ling Long glanced at Xue Lan’er who couldn’t accept the facts with disgust, then raised an eyebrow and said to the Array School’s Headmaster.

The Headmaster of the Array School had a grim expression and snorted coldly: “Don’t need your fake kindness.”

This Xue Lan’er really was embarrassing. No one else could see that jade that Lou Mu Yan used to break the Array just now, but as a Grade 6 Array Master, he saw it very clearly.

Lou Mu Yan indeed saw through the weak point of the Array at a glance, and it was absolutely possible that she had the strength of a Grade 5 Array Master as rumoured.

Xue Lan’er privately tampered with the spots when applying for the Schools, causing the Array School to lose such an excelling talent. Now that she was defeated in such a humiliating way, the Headmaster of the Array School had nowhere to vent.

Xue Lan’er was defeated, but Lou Mu Yan’s battle wasn’t over yet. The next one she drew was the number one genius of the Outer Tamer’s School.

As soon as Yin Hong stepped onto the stage, like Xue Lan’er, he first took out some defensive Saint Tools and placed them in front of him to prevent Lou Mu Yan from smashing talismans.

Then with a thought, two Tier 7 Demonic Beasts and a Tier 8 Demonic Beast emerged from his Spirit Beast Ring, instantly surrounding Lou Mu Yan.

Lou Mu Yan blinked, folded her arms, and chuckled: “You actually want to play gang up with me?”
