Protect Our Patriarch

How is this possible?!

Although Li Yuzhe had only advanced to the Spirit Platform realm for less than two years, he was still a Spirit Platform realm cultivator. His defense was so strong that even an average Spirit Platform realm cultivator would not be able to break through it so quickly.

This girl was only at the ninth level of the Qi Refining realm, yet her explosive power and strength were so terrifying?

The disciples who saw Wang Luoqiu's move for the first time were all in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.

The new disciples of the Xiaoyao Peak lineage shrank back, their memories triggered by the scene before them. There was a time when they also thought they were very powerful, until they met Wang Luoqiu...

Forget it~ No more thinking, it only brings tears.

Wang Shouzhe couldn't help but nod secretly.

This girl was getting more and more proficient in using her battle body, and her progress had far exceeded his expectations. If she continues like this and advances to the Spirit Platform realm, how terrifying would her combat power be?

Tsk~ It seems he really needs to work harder.

"My disciple Luoqiu not only has outstanding talent, but also a strong combat consciousness. She knows how to use various environments to produce the greatest lethality. Such a child is teachable, indeed teachable~"

In the sky, Master Xuan Yao stroked his beard lightly, nodding in satisfaction.

His face still wore a serious and dignified expression, but his eyes were filled with an undeniable smugness, which made Master Changchun feel a bit depressed.

Compared to Wang Luoqiu, Li Yuzhe was a complete negative example. Despite having a stronger cultivation realm, his combat consciousness was so weak. Just now, he was like a turtle caught by an eagle and thrown into the sky, then smashed onto a rock, breaking his shell.

Couldn't he use his brain?

"Hehehe~ This girl is quite interesting~" Lady Huodie covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "She's just too upright, she didn't directly pursue and win the fight."

Master Xuan Yao laughed, "I guess she didn't have enough fun."

"Most likely."

Lady Huodie and Master Xuan Yao's back-and-forth made Master Changchun's face even more subtle.

The masters' chat didn't affect the overall situation below. At this time, Li Yuzhe on the stage finally woke up from his state of doubting life.

"Cough cough!"

He spat out blood, his face pale: "Junior Sister Luoqiu, I admit I underestimated you. I take back what I said earlier, let me recover a bit before I fight you again."

"Take your time, Senior Brother Yuzhe." Wang Luoqiu was not in a hurry, she just stood aside with her hands behind her back, waiting patiently.

Li Yuzhe picked up his Longevity Leaf while spitting out blood and put it back in his mouth.

The continuous healing energy from the Longevity Leaf circulated through his organs, and his complexion quickly became rosy.

The ancient tree armor on his body also quickly regrew and filled up in a short while, the cracks were also healed and closed, once again restoring his full defense state.

"Junior Sister, please wait a bit more."

After Li Yuzhe took a few breaths, the profound energy in his body surged out again, condensing into a Wood Spirit Shield.

"Shameless, so shameless!"

Seeing him like this, the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak immediately cursed in anger.

The people of Changchun Valley also looked a bit embarrassed.

However, no matter what, Li Yuzhe was one of their own. Even though he was somewhat shameless, they still had to back him up.

So, a verbal battle broke out again on both sides.

But this was Changchun Valley's home field, after a while, the voices of Xiaoyao Peak were suppressed, and they had to stop their clamor.

"Junior Sister Luoqiu, come on!"

Li Yuzhe, as a disciple of Changchun Valley, had fully recovered after a short time and was ready to fight again with full energy.

"Senior Brother, be careful, here I come."

As soon as Wang Luoqiu's words fell, she rushed out like a swift leopard, her speed so fast that she left a trail of afterimages in her original place.

In the blink of an eye, she arrived next to Li Yuzhe, her fists and feet raining down on him relentlessly.

This time, Li Yuzhe learned his lesson and didn't rely solely on the Wood Spirit Shield for defense. Instead, he blocked Wang Luoqiu's attacks with his fists and feet, using the Wood Spirit Shield to withstand the attacks only when he couldn't block them.

In this way, although the Wood Spirit Shield suffered a lot of damage, it could quickly be replenished, allowing Li Yuzhe to always maintain a full defense state. It wouldn't be so easy for Wang Luoqiu to defeat Li Yuzhe now.

"Junior Sister Luoqiu." Li Yuzhe looked triumphant, "Now you see the defensive power of our Changchun Valley lineage, right?"

Seeing this, the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak were a bit worried.

This was what made the Changchun Valley lineage difficult to deal with.

If you can't quickly break all their defenses, you will fall into a war of attrition. And when it comes to a war of attrition, if Changchun Valley claims to be second, no one dares to claim first.

Li Xiuping and Mu Yuanbai looked at each other, both couldn't help but feel regretful.

"Luoqiu is a gifted and strong-willed fighter, but she's still too young and overconfident," they said.

In battle, overconfidence is a fatal flaw. How could she afford to give Li Yuzhe such a long respite?

The Xuanqi never extinguishes, it fights with you till the end of time. This is no joke.

However, no matter what they thought, Wang Luoqiu remained calm and composed, steadily dealing out her attacks. The surrounding discussions, sighs of regret, and even some mocking words did not disturb her in the slightest.

All her attention was focused on the battle.

Gradually, time ticked away.

A quarter of an hour... two quarters...

Sweat was pouring down Wang Luoqiu's body, her yellow female Basalt battle suit was soaked with sweat.

However, Li Yuzhe's defense was still at full strength, as if he could continue fighting for another ten hours without any problem.

"Luoqiu, can't hold on any longer?" Li Yuzhe chuckled, "I admit you're very strong. When you reach the Lingtai realm, I'm sure I won't be your match, but you're still too young now. Admit defeat, there's no point in continuing."

"Indeed, it's time to end this. Thank you for practicing with me for so long."

Wang Luoqiu's voice was slightly breathless, but her tone was still incredibly calm and indifferent.

Without waiting for Li Yuzhe to react, she moved.

She pushed off the ground, her figure charging towards Li Yuzhe like a bolt of lightning.

As her blood boiled, a red energy aura enveloped her body, her momentum skyrocketing as if she had become a different person.

At the same time, a terrifying murderous intent flashed across her calm eyes.

A tangible killing intent enveloped Li Yuzhe, as if choking his throat, freezing his triumphant smile on his face.

"Brother, you can die now."

Her light words fell into Li Yuzhe's ears like a thunderclap, causing his soul to tremble.

Deep inside, fear surged.

What? She wants to kill me?! That look, that killing intent, she's not joking!

Li Yuzhe's mind trembled, his body stiffened, and his movements involuntarily slowed down.

And it was this moment of hesitation that led to his downfall.

Wang Luoqiu struck out with her elbow, causing Li Yuzhe's Yimu Spirit Shield to violently shake, almost shattering. Then, she kicked him into the air.

Her figure also leaped high into the air at the same time.

In mid-air, Wang Luoqiu grabbed Li Yuzhe like an eagle grabbing a turtle.

The next moment, she plunged down with Li Yuzhe, falling from the sky like a meteor.

The red flame of her burning blood wrapped around her body, entwining with the green light of the Yimu Spirit Shield, leaving a long trail of fire in the air.

"Boom!"

The stage trembled violently, and countless fragments of stone flew out.

The disciples around the stage quickly raised their sleeves to cover their faces, involuntarily taking a step back.

A moment later, when the dust settled, they saw a huge pit, about two feet in diameter and seven or eight feet deep, had been smashed into the center of the stage.

Li Yuzhe was lying at the bottom of the pit, coughing up blood. His Yimu Spirit Shield had shattered, and the pieces of his ancient tree armor were scattered on the ground.

The spiritual light on the armor had completely dimmed.

Li Yuzhe stared blankly at the sky.

Who am I? Where am I? What just happened?

Seeing this, the disciples' eyes widened in shock.

After a stalemate of two quarters of an hour, they were all drowsy and believed that Wang Luoqiu would eventually lose. Who could have imagined that in the blink of an eye, the situation would change so drastically?

This was simply astonishing! Completely unexpected!

Everyone looked at each other, the scene was silent, not a sound could be heard.

"Brother Yuzhe, thank you for your guidance."

Wang Luoqiu jumped out of the pit and bowed politely to Li Yuzhe.

Li Yuzhe shivered and whispered, "Didn't Sister Luoqiu want to kill me?"

"Brother, you're joking." Wang Luoqiu looked at him as if he were a fool, her tone calm and steady, "I have no grudge against you, why would I kill you?"

Li Yuzhe was somewhat confused, "But Sister Luoqiu's killing intent just now..."

"Sorry, I've killed too many people and beasts, and I couldn't control my killing intent for a moment." Wang Luoqiu said casually, "Please forgive me, brother."

Her explanation was worse than no explanation at all.

After hearing her words, Li Yuzhe couldn't help but shiver.

Sister Luoqiu is only about twenty, right? How many people and beasts has she killed to accumulate such a terrifying killing intent?

What he didn't know was that Wang Luoqiu was just bluffing. She had indeed defeated and captured a number of rogue cultivators, but she had actually killed very few of them.However, when she activated her battle form, the suffocating aura she emitted was extremely similar to a murderous intent.

However, others didn't know that Wang Luoqiu was just bluffing.

As soon as these words came out, whether it was the younger generation of Changchun Valley or the younger generation of Xiaoyao Peak, they all looked at Wang Luoqiu with intense fear.

"Sister Luoqiu!"

"Sister Luoqiu is so powerful, she even defeated a Spirit Platform Realm under fair combat!"

At this moment, the people of Xiaoyao Peak also came back to their senses, cheering for Wang Luoqiu.

It was simply exhilarating!

For a moment, the cheers and applause under the stage were endless.

The female disciples of Wandie Valley also didn't expect Wang Luoqiu to have such combat power, they all looked sideways, extremely surprised.

Wang Shouzhe also felt a bit proud in his heart.

Truly worthy of being my sixth sister, she actually won.

However, speaking of it, although Li Yuzhe's cultivation was high, his bloodline was not bad, and his defense was outstanding, he ultimately lacked combat experience. Moreover, it was unknown whether it was a problem with the Changchun lineage, but Li Yuzhe's offensive methods were seriously insufficient.

As a cultivator of the Spirit Platform Realm, this kind of combat power could only be considered barely satisfactory, and it was not comparable to the demon puppets of the Spirit Platform Realm in the trial ground.

After all, with Wang Luoqiu's current strength, challenging the demon puppets of the Spirit Platform Realm was still a bit insufficient. Only when she reached the peak of the Qi Refining Realm would she have a certain chance of victory.

In stark contrast to the lively scene at Xiaoyao Peak was Changchun Valley.

Jinshan and the others seemed to be shrouded in a cloud of gloom, their morale low.

The new disciples were all bewildered, deeply doubting whether their choice to join Changchun Valley was correct.

How could Changchun Valley be so weak?

"We in Changchun Valley all like to study plants and rarely focus on combat. Moreover, the rules of the arena are somewhat unfair to the disciples of Changchun Valley." Luwei, a junior sister, couldn't stand it and spoke up, "What we disciples of Changchun Valley are best at is actually defensive warfare. As long as we are given some time, we can manage a piece of land like an iron bucket, and anyone who dares to come in will die."

That was true.

Wang Shouzhe also nodded secretly when he heard this.

Although these disciples of Changchun Valley were far inferior to him in their ability to stimulate plants and couldn't quickly grow plants in combat, as long as they were given enough time, they could also grow a large number of plants for combat.

If they were given a piece of land and allowed to manage it slowly, they could manage the land like a tower defense game, and any Basalt cultivator of the same level who rushed in would basically only be beaten.

Just look at Wang Shouzhe's courtyard.

That courtyard has now been managed by him to a quite terrifying extent. Even if a Basalt cultivator of the Spirit Platform Realm dared to rush in, the outcome would be quite tragic.

Luwei's words finally restored some confidence in the new disciples.

Meanwhile.

In the sky, Xuan Yao was very satisfied with Wang Luoqiu's performance: "My disciple Luoqiu has indeed lived up to my painstaking cultivation and earnest teachings."

Changchun Shangren's eyes were deep: "This girl just joined today, right? When and where did you painstakingly cultivate and earnestly teach her?"

"Hehehe~"

Madam Huandie couldn't help laughing when she heard this, shaking with laughter.

Changchun Shangren's face turned even darker.

After a while, Madam Huandie finally stopped laughing.

She flicked her hair and glanced at the two Shangren beside her with a flirtatious look: "Shangren Xuan Yao's new disciple is indeed good. However, it's now our turn for our disciples to take the stage, right?"

"Hahahaha~ After witnessing the strength of my disciple, Madam still wants her disciple to take the stage, it seems she is full of confidence." Xuan Yao Shangren laughed loudly, his eyes suddenly filled with anticipation, "In that case, this Shangren will wait and see."

Changchun Shangren's face turned even darker.

Xuan Yao had just finished watching, and this Madam Huandie couldn't wait to go up immediately. Did they really think his Changchun Valley was a soft persimmon to be squeezed?!

But who could blame him? The combat power of his Changchun Valley was of the type that accumulated slowly and burst out suddenly. The combat ability in the early stage of cultivation was just not good. Even though he was angry, he had no solution.

The worse Changchun Shangren's face looked, the more excited Madam Huandie became, and she giggled.

"My dear disciple, it's your turn. Be sure to 'experience' the brothers of Changchun Valley well." She waved to the stage below.

"Yes, Master."

Upon hearing this, Wang Luoqing stepped out slowly and walked onto the stage.

Unlike Wang Luoqiu's aggressive and domineering aura, her temperament was tranquil like water, yet it revealed a true indifference that came from the bone.

"Wandie Valley disciple Wang Luoqing." Wang Luoqing said indifferently, "I hope Brother Li Yuzhe will recover well before teaching me."

What?

This little girl from Wandie Valley, she actually wants to challenge Senior Brother Li Yuzhe?

The crowd under the stage instantly erupted in surprise.

Li Yuzhe had just struggled to stand up, and upon hearing this, he immediately swayed, his mind somewhat dazed.

What's happening to the world? He wasn't this popular before, but now his junior sisters were lining up to fight him.

What virtue and ability does he, Li Yuzhe, have to deserve this honor?

In the crowd, Wang Shouzhe couldn't help but facepalm.

How could he forget? One of Girl's catchphrases was: What Luo Qiu can do, I can do too.

So, if Luo Qiu can defeat Li Yuzhe, she definitely can too.

On this point, probably no one could persuade her otherwise. Poor Li Yuzhe, after being beaten by Luo Qiu, he would have to be beaten by Girl again.

He couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy for Li Yuzhe.
