--- Chapter 130 ---
Xia Qingyue and Shui Wushuang stared at each other.
Although they are both beauties, Shui Wushuang could point out several points of herself lacking compared to Xia Qingyue. She has to admit only a woman like Xia Qingye could fit to be Yu Long's wife.
'However, that doesn't mean I will give up!' Shui Wushuang vowed inwardly.
She, Shui Wushuang, has a dream!
...
Murong Qianxue went to the seat near Yu Long and greeted, "Hello, young master."
"Everyone as well."
"Yuechan, Yueli." She also smiled at her fellow Fairies of Frozen Cloud Asgard. "It seems you two are doing well in the past two days."
Chu Yueli shook her head gently and responded, "Don't get me started on how we are doing well these days. The Heaven Sword Villa's master being an annoying cockroach was more than enough..."
"Eh?" Murong Qianxue was speechless.
"This, he still bothers you, Yuechan?"
"Yes..." Chu Yuechan's expression is as cold as ice. After replying to Murong Qianxue, she didn't bother to say more.
Murong Qianxue and every disciple of Frozen Cloud Asgard knew Chu Yuechan's personality very well.
Chu Yuechan is a woman of few words. She's only willing to open herself up to a few people, such as her sister(Chu Yueli), her teacher(Gong Yuxian), and Yu Long.
Her current status is different, but that doesn't mean she could beat Heavenly Sword Villa's master to a pulp.
Murong Qianxue seated herself near Yu Long and asked, "What do you think about this matter, young master?"
Yu Long glanced at Murong Qianxue and smiled. "Well, I'd like to see what kind of problem they come with."
"The Heavenly Sword Villa's master is a coward. He has passed his prime and grown too comfortable with his position."
"If he didn't have his wife's support, Ling Yuefeng wouldn't be in power for so long."
"In short, he's playing around with fire." Lily suddenly commented. "He has to bear a burn sooner or later."
Yu Long chuckled and commented, "That matter aside, you brought interesting disciples to the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament. While Wu Xuexin couldn't win against Cang Yue, she was able to exhaust her a little."
Cang Yue stood outside the main arena and felt someone was calling her name. She turned around and waved her hand at Yu Long.
Yu Long waved his hand back, leaving Murong Qianxue speechless.
"Princess's sense and intuition is extremely sharp..." Murong Qianxue's rosy lips twitched slightly.
"If Princess Cang Yue is already this monstrous, I don't think Shui Wushuang would have any chance to retaliate."
Yu Long nodded, "You're correct, but that's what makes it interesting."
Murong Qianxue glanced at Jing Jing and sighed because she was the youngest of the three. Losing to Fen Juechen should give her an idea of how vast the world is.
"Jing Jing failed to show her worth to you, young master. So, If Wushuang is lucky enough and lasts long against Young Lady Xia for a while, it would be the best achievement." She added solemnly.
"Yeah." Yu Long stared at the main arena. "She might have a chance to enter the Lost Heaven Sect."
"Really?"
"When have I ever lied about this kind of thing?"
"T-That's true..."
...
"The first semifinal match begins!" Ling Wuguo announced.
[Frozen World Arts - Ice Break]
Shui Wushuang launched her move without further ado.
She had witnessed Xia Qingyue's ability three months ago. This innocent-looking young lady casually tore the Frozen Cloud Asgard's main gate into a heap of icy dust.
'I couldn't let her launch that move.'
Extreme frost covered the main stage, cornering Xia Qingyue into a specific location.
Xia Qingyue wanted to end this match immediately.
To Xia Qingyue's surprise, a thin layer of frost spread over her skin.
She frowned and used her [Ocean Quake Symbols] to vibrate profound energy around her, pulverizing the surrounding frost into dust.
As fine ice crystals flew everywhere, they released a blinding blue light.
[Frozen World Arts - Cold Light]
Blinding blue lights traveled across the air and chased after Xia Qingyue.
Xia Qingyue snapped her finger, and the echo created extreme vibration, nullifying Shui Wushuang's attack.
Shui Wushuang appeared before Xia Qingyue's eyes and launched a palm attack. However, the way she did it was more like a stabbing motion.
Xia Qingyue blinked in awe because this attack wasn't part of Frozen World Arts. No, to be more specific, Yu Long never made any modification related to stabbing someone.
It left Xia Qingyue with another possibility. Shui Wushuang came up with this move herself.
[Frozen World Arts - Freezing Water Variation: Hand's Sword]
An icy blue light covered Shui Wushuang's hand, turning it into a fine, sharp weapon.
Xia Qingyue reacted calmly and slapped Shui Wushuang's wrist, diverting her attack away.
Shui Wushuang's hand landed on the arena, and a massive group of ice ruptured the ground, followed by intense chill and sharpness.
Such destruction.
It makes one forget that Shui Wushuang is only at the 5th Level of the Earth Profound Realm. Her cultivation base is only slightly better than Fen Juechen and Ling Yun.
Shui Wushuang gnashed her teeth and lunged toward Xia Qingyue again.
She launched relentless attacks, using a variation of Frozen World Arts she developed herself. Each attack is destructive and fatal. They were completely different from the Frozen Cloud Asgard's sect character.
After a few minutes, the arena is 'thoroughly' covered with sharp ice crystals.
Xia Qingyue countered Shui Wushuang's attacks passively. She wanted to see how far she could go against her.
'Not bad. If Cang Yue had someone like Fen Juechen and Sikong Du, I don't mind giving this girl a chance.' Xia Qingyue thought, dismissing the coldness of Frozen World Arts.
'But this is not enough.'
'[Frozen World Arts] isn't supposed to be used like this. The profound patterns Yu Long intended are to control and overwhelm opponents, not to attack without reserve...'
Xia Qingyue stared at Shui Wushuang and said, "Do you still have more moves? If you don't, I won't entertain your hopeless wish anymore."
"Yu Long doesn't need weak women on his side."
Shui Wushuang sighed and peered her gaze toward Yu Long. She bit her lips hard, and they started bleeding.
She moved her gaze back to Xia Qingyue, "Bring it on!"
Xia Qingyue scoffed and summoned an Ocean Quake Symbol, making the air tremble violently. She pushed her slender against the symbol and caused the world to break.
Crack!
Yes, the world is breaking before everyone's eyes!
As if the world is glass, it's breaking upon Xia Qingyue's seemingly gentle touch.
Shui Wushuang's eyes lit up in the cold light. She raised two of her fingers and pressed the air as well.
However, compared to Xia Qingyue, it was weak, like a brittle piece of ice.
[Frozen World Arts - Freezing Water Variation: Ultimate Ice Spear]
The cold was ignited with Shui Wushuang's profound energy, reaching the extreme freezing point at the tip of her fingers. It wasn't close to Absolute Zero, but Shui Wushuang unconsciously grasped the concept of it.
BOOM! Crack!
Xia Qingyue blew Shui Wushuang away, forcing her to spew a mouthful of blood.
Shui Wushuang wiped the blood from her mouth and mumbled, "I failed..."
"Not really." Xia Qingyue commented in return. "You're doing great for someone who hasn't received formal teaching from us, showing your great potential."
Shui Wushuang was stunned. "Thank you-!"
Before Shui Wushuang could finish her words, Xia Qingyue continued speaking.
"But potential means nothing in front of absolute power."
"Come to our courtyard tonight." Xia Qingyue turned around and walked out of the arena.
"Understood!" Shui Wushuang was excited.
Cang Yue greeted Xia Qingyue with a giggle and teased, "And they call me harsh on Fen Juechen and Sikong Du."
Xia Qingyue rolled her eyes, "Don't compare Shui Wushuang to your little pets."
"Sure, sure." Cang Yue shrugged casually.
Ling Wuguo watched Shui Wushuang leave the stage and announce, "The winner, Xia Qingyue from the Lost Heaven Sect."
"Next fight, Cang Yue and Fen Juechen."
"I admit defeat!" Fen Juechen immediately said, shocking everyone.
But when they thought about it, it was a wise decision.
Cang Yue gave Fen Juechen a funny look and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to test your strength against me?"
Fen Juechen's expression paled because he knew none of his attacks would affect Cang Yue. After experiencing One Punch Man's training regime, he knew Cang Yue's physique was that of a monster.
"I'm well aware of my limit, princess." He tried to sound as polite as possible.
Ling Wuguo glanced at the Heavenly Sword Villa's master and heard a series of commands.
He stared at Xia Qingyue and asked, "Young Lady, do you need to recover your profound energy before continuing to the final?"
"No, let's proceed to the final right away." Xia Qingyue responded calmly.
"Very well." Ling Wuguo nodded in understanding. He waved his hand and activated the array under the Sword Discourse Arena, merging the main arena with other sub-arenas.
One massive flatform appeared and was 'actually' completed with a translucent bounded field that could prevent an early-stage Tyrant Profound Realm's attacks.
'This is not enough. From the pattern, these young ladies' strength should exceed the early stage of Tyrant Profound Realm.' Ling Wuguo solemnly thought to himself.
"Both contestants, please enter the arena."
Xia Qingyue and Cang Yue glanced at each other, smiling a little.
They entered the arena and made a distance, separating themselves by twenty-meter distances.
Yu Long sat straight and said, "I hope they have a great fight."
"That's not something you should say to your wives, young master." Lily couldn't help but facepalm.
"My wives are no ordinary wives." Yu Long returned confidently. "They are going to be the empresses, if not goddesses, of the world!"
"..." Hong Guan.
"..." Lily.
"..." Chu Yueli.
"..." Chu Yuechan.
"..." Jasmine.
"..." Murong Qianxue.
Ling Wuguo stepped out of the arena because he knew this fight would endanger him. He cleared his throat, "Blue Wind Ranking Tournament's Final Match! Start!!"
