BXBX NOVEL Chapter 5198 Apologize On Her Behalf
Xue Jianfeng could only scoff and drop the matter resentfully. He could still hold on to Xin Yijie's weakness, but even if he did report this to the ancient Alliance, it would be useless.
Because this was only human nature. Other than the shameless lie yingzu, Xin Yijie's actions were a happy occasion for everyone else. The archaic Alliance would definitely not punish him, otherwise it would be seen as encouraging lie yingzu's shameless actions.
After a while, Leng Leng finally broke through successfully. Under the envious gazes of the crowd, she officially advanced to the perfected Foundation establishment realm and became a figure who truly stood at the top of all the disciples of the archaic Alliance.
He originally had an ice-shattering Constitution, and now, he had become a legend who had advanced by one level. Now, other than Ling Tianyou and Xue Jianfeng, no one else among the disciples present could be compared to him. Even people like Duanmu Yu might be slightly inferior to him. This was truly a promising future.
"Miss Leng Leng, I'm really sorry for what happened just now. I apologize to you on behalf of the green cloud School in Beidao." Xin Yijie walked up to her and bowed deeply.
"Ah?" Leng Leng was taken aback. She had been so focused on her breakthrough that she did not notice lie yingzu's small movements. She did not know what happened after that.
It wasn't until Lin Yi came over and explained in a low voice that Leng Leng finally understood."Martial uncle Xin, you're too kind. You don't have to apologize to me. Actually, I should be the one thanking you properly. No matter what, you protected me."
Even if Xin Yijie hadn't stepped up, lie yingzu wouldn't have been able to hurt Lengleng at all-Lin Yi was watching her, after all. However, Xin Yijie had done her a big favor, and no matter what his considerations were, Lengleng would've benefited the most from this.
"Miss Leng Leng is too polite. That was what this old man should do." Xin Yijie smiled bitterly and nodded at Lin Yi before announcing that the competition was continuing.
The rest of the competition was uneventful. One day later, it was the early Foundation Stage's turn again. This time, most of the people passed without any mishaps. After the first round, everyone was clearly more used to the early Foundation Stage. They were also more comfortable with the countermoves that Lin Yi taught them. They were more at ease when facing an early Foundation Stage opponent of the same level.
This time, other than the people who drew their own, the only one who lost was Ying Ziyu. She picked Yu bingbai in the first round, and while it looked like she was pretty lucky, she was actually at a disadvantage.
If she'd gone all out in the first round like everyone else, and not just put on a show, she might've lost the second round. Her opponent wasn't that strong, and the only reason she'd lost was because she hadn't gotten used to being in the early Foundation Stage yet-she still had to pay the school fees.
But this wasn't a bad thing-after this loss, Ziyu had matured quite a bit. Compared to success, failure was always the most encouraging thing, especially for a girl like Ziyu who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. The experience of this loss was even more valuable.
Lin Yi smiled at Ziyu, who'd started practitioning for the first time ever. This was good-no matter how strong he was, he couldn't keep everyone under his wing forever. If even the youngest Ziyu started to realize this, the others wouldn't slack off either. After all, if they couldn't even beat her, it'd be embarrassing-this was a nice surprise.
In the third round of the trial Competition, the number of people who signed up for the cross-level challenge was less than half of the second round, and there were only three people in total.
At this time, everyone already had some understanding of each other. In addition to having enough strength to succeed in a cross-level challenge, there was also a very key condition, that was to catch the opponent by surprise. Only in this way could it be possible to make the stronger opponent fail in a ditch. Otherwise, if they really knew each other's roots, the already small chance of winning would be even less.
As a result, many disciples who were impulsive spontaneously quieted down. Although the number of people was much smaller, these challengers had obviously become much stronger. At this time, those who still had the courage to stand up and challenge were naturally not good.
There were three cross-level duels. Although only one of them succeeded in the end, from the looks of it, the other two were also evenly matched. The chances of winning for those two challengers were actually not low, but they were just unlucky and eventually lost.
"I didn't feel it at first, but now it seems that the rules of this Trial Competition are really cruel." A disciple of the immemorial Alliance exclaimed, and the rest of the people also sighed.
Even Lin Yi couldn't help but nod. Six people had fought in the three duels, but only one of them had won-the one who won the cross-level challenge. The other five weren't in good shape.
There was no need to mention the one who had been defeated. According to the rules, he had already been eliminated. As for the remaining four people, although the results were not as direct, because the battle had been too intense, each of them had been injured quite badly. Unless they had a powerful pill like the great cyclic pellet, they would not be able to recover in a short time.
If this continued, not only would they not be able to win the third round, but they would also be in trouble in the fourth and fifth rounds. Once they lost all three rounds, they would naturally be eliminated.
In just three rounds, five people had been eliminated. It was not an exaggeration to say that such a rule was cruel. The higher-ups of the immemorial Alliance had racked their brains to come up with these rules. The disciples who could stand out under such cruel rules, regardless of their strength level, would at least not be weak and useless, unless they were really lucky.
But then again, for the archaic trials, which were full of coincidences, luck was also a part of one's strength. To put it nicely, it was an opportunity.
After the end of the cross-stage challenge, it was time to draw lots for the most anticipated battle between the perfected Foundation establishment disciples!
