n304 It’s Not a Burden to Have More Skills

n“Senior Brother, it’s not a burden to have more skills, so I’ll learn them all,” said Dong Xi with a smile.

nTie Zhu did not know what to say for a moment. He could only give Dong Xi a thumbs up.

nDong Xi was a sword cultivator. If Tie Zhu asked around, he would find out. However, Tie Zh was a simple-minded person. He only knew how to cultivate and did not ask for information. He directly came to the competition.

nTie Zhu was still wearing the ring. He touched it with his hands and looked at Dong Xi. He said, “Next, Senior Brother will experience Junior Sister’s sword technique.”

nDong Xi made an opening gesture and said with a smile, “Please give me some pointers, Senior Brother.”

nThe ring on Tie Zhu had high-grade spiritual Qi. When Dong Xi struck it with her sword, it made a sound of metal colliding.

nDong Xi knew that this competition would not be easy.

nThe sword tassel that the Eldest Senior Brother had lent to Dong Xi was also useless in this competition. The sword tassel was mainly used to lock onto the target. However, Tie Zhu’s movement technique was not good, so Dong Xi’s every move could hit him anyway.

nDong Xi’s sword technique was like a storm, attacking Tie Zhu. Tie Zhu was like a rock, allowing the attacks to fall freely.

nThe two of them fought for a few rounds and were both very tired, but neither of them could do anything to the other.

nAlthough Tie Zhu managed to block all of Dong Xi’s moves, he also exhausted a lot of his energy. Tie Zhu wanted to seize the opportunity to counterattack, but Dong Xi’s movements were so agile that he could not grasp her.

nThe two of them stopped at the same time and ate their pills. Dong Xi’s face was red from exhaustion, and Tie Zhu’s back was also drenched in sweat.

nTie Zhu looked at Dong Xi, who was also very tired. He said, “Junior Sister, why don’t we take a break mid-fight?”

nDong Xi was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you, Senior.”

nThis was the first time everyone had seen such a harmonious competition. The two of them sat on both sides, trying to recover their physical strength and spiritual energy.

nEveryone below the stage saw this and was instantly dumbfounded. If they all competed like this, how long would this competition last?

nTie Zhu and Dong Xi were very assured of each other. They were not afraid of a sneak attack, so they generously started to rest.

nAfter almost 15 minutes, Tie Zhu opened his eyes and looked at Dong Xi. Tie Zhu said, “Junior Sister, did you rest well?”

nDong Xi had the dual assistance of the Body Refining Pill and the Spirit Restore Pill, so she had long recovered and had been waiting for Tie Zhu.

nHearing Tie Zhu’s words, Dong Xi opened her eyes and stood up. She stretched her back and said, “Alright, let’s continue!”

nThe two of them fought again for more than an hour. Dong Xi felt the arm that was holding the sword tremble slightly, and Tie Zhu was not any better.

nThe audience did not expect Tie Zhu to fight with Dong Xi for so long. Tie Zhu’s cultivation was four levels higher than Dong Xi’s, and he was also a physical cultivator. This really should not have happened!

nOn the stage, Tie Zhu did not have such a psychological burden. After all, Tie Zhu had personally seen Dong Xi practice the Iron Head Technique.

nDong Xi was able to keep up with Master Wang Chi’s intense training and even maintain her physical strength, so she was naturally very powerful.

nThese body cultivators never judged their cultivation based on their appearance. There was a huge difference between eating pills to increase one’s cultivation and cultivating with one’s heart.

nIn the cultivation world, strength had always been the deciding factor, not cultivation. Whoever won was the most powerful.

nThe two of them looked at each other and said at the same time, “Why don’t we…”

nThe two of them instantly understood each other’s thoughts. Tie Zhu smiled and said, “Then let’s take another rest.”

nDong Xi immediately sat down, and the crowd below the stage began to discuss.

nThis competition had been going on for a long time, and it had attracted the attention of the Elders. If this continued, what would happen to the rest of the competition?

nOnly after Master Xuan Chen sent someone over to ask did he find out what happened.

nIt turned out that the two of them had fought to a draw, and now they had come to an agreement to rest. After resting, they would continue the competition.

nAfter a short discussion, Master Xuan Chen and the other Elders decided that the two of them were tied.

nWhen Tie Zhu heard the Elders’ decision, he did not feel embarrassed. He smiled and said, “Junior Sister, from now on, you’re my blood-related younger sister. Only fighting with you can make me feel so satisfied. Next time, I’ll go to the Ningtian Sect to find you, and we’ll continue to compare notes!”

nIt was very refreshing to get along with such a straightforward person like Tie Zhu.

n“Brother Tie Zhu, today’s competition was great. If there’s a chance in the future, let’s continue.” Dong Xi said.

nBefore the two of them could finish speaking, Master Xuan Chen waved his sleeve and chased them out of the arena.

nAfter Dong Xi steadied herself, she looked at the Senior Brothers around her, and her heart suddenly thumped.

nToday’s match was a draw, so what about the Senior Brothers who had bet on Dong Xi? Especially Eldest Senior Brother, who had gambled all his assets…

nDong Xi was silent. Looking at the tassel on her sword, Dong Xi’s heart felt heavy. How could she explain this?
