35 The Yellow Ranking Tournament

That's the thing about women, the less you act like it, the more they're likely to care.

But she didn't know that this senior in front of her was actually Lu Xuan himself.

If he doesn't think about you, will he look at you differently just because he wears a mask?

If it wasn't for the fact that they knew each other, Lu Xuan wouldn't have bothered to take care of her.

Soon, after one tea, the Soul Breaking Palm wound that Han Zhiyun had suffered had healed.

Due to excessive blood loss, Han Zhiyun's already pale face became even more pale and weak at this point.

But she was still strong and said, "Thank you senior for saving my life."

"It's getting late, so I'll send you back to Tianwu City." Lu Xuan nodded.

"Ah, back to Tianwu City? Isn't Senior afraid of running into those black-robed men again?"

When she thought of the black-robed man's stern cultivation, Han Zhiyun was a little apprehensive.

"There's no harm, they shouldn't be coming for us, although I killed the two of them, they can't make a big show of searching the mountain for someone, just rest assured." Lu Xuan said.

Only then did Han Zhiyun put her heart at ease.

After dressing and arranging her clothes, Lu Xuan took her with him and flew towards Tianwu City at a very fast speed.

Half an hour later, Lu Xuan found a secluded place and dropped her off.

"Here, a little further on, we'll reach the city gate, and I'm sure that no matter how deranged that group of black-robed men are, they wouldn't dare to go on a killing spree at the gate."

"From now on, don't go alone to a place like that in the middle of nowhere."

Lu Xuan warned.

Han Zhiyun thought to herself, she didn't go alone, there was a senior brother with her, but he just ran away.

Thinking of senior brother Qi Yun, Han Zhiyun's anger, which had subsided, now burned again.

I'm going to kick your ass when I see Old Man Ling!

However, when she again laid eyes on Lu Xuan's ancient sight, her heart unconsciously softened and said, " Junior remembers."

"Then let's part here."

After saying that, Lu Xuan prepared to withdraw and leave.

"Please stay." Han Zhiyun blurted out for some reason.

Hmm?

Lu Xuan wondered, "Anything else?"

Han Zhiyun wanted to say something, her face showing an unnatural blush, and after considering for a long time, she finally made up her mind and said, "Senior, in half a month, Tianwu City will be hosting a Yellow Ranking Tournament, and I will also be participating, can Senior..."

"Could you come over...and watch the little lady compete...?"

At that point, Han Zhiyun's voice was as thin as a mosquito.

The Yellow Ranking Tournament?

Lu Xuan didn't care about the second half of Han Zhiyun's sentence.

This matter of the Yellow Ranking Tournament was not new to him.

This was a martial event held by the Martial Pavilion in order to select the strongest martial artists.

Only if you become a Yellow Ranking martial artist, you will be eligible to participate in the triennial Martial Pavilion examination and become a part of the Martial Pavilion.

The status of the Martial Pavilion is equivalent to that of the Spirit Sky Academy, in Tianwu City.

But, somewhat differently, the range in which the Martial Pavilion was rooted was not just in Tianwu City.

Thirty-six cities in Yuezhou, each of which had a branch of the Martial Pavilion.

The forces were extremely large, almost rivaling the Red Vault Empire.

If one could become a part of the Martial Pavilion, not only would one be rich in resources, but one's status would rise as well.

Where was the strength of Han Zhiyun? She was just a personal disciple of the Returning Cloud Sect.

The Returning Cloud Sect was strong, but it was still just a sect with limitations.

And the Martial Pavilion was not a single sect, but there were more than a dozen sects under its umbrella, so you could say that it was a grand martial alliance.

Becoming a part of it was definitely not weaker than the outer disciples of some large sects.

Of course, the Martial Pavilion wasn't flawless, one of the drawbacks was the large number of sects and the mixture of fish and dragons, and those who liked to cultivate quietly by themselves generally didn't like the lively atmosphere of the Martial Pavilion.

So, the people of the Martial Pavilion were simply treated equally later on, and it was fine to join other sects and just hang out with them.

This open door rule resulted in more and more people wanting to enter the Martial Pavilion, so the Yellow Ranking Tournament was born.

What Lu Xuan cared about was not the status of the Martial Pavilion, but the rewards of the Yellow Ranking Tournament.

Wuta.

The thirty-six cities of Yuezhou all had a high cultivation tower.

The interior of the Martial Tower was filled with a fire-based true qi all year round, so the cultivation speed would be twice as fast as the outside world, and one could also take the opportunity to comprehend the fire-based true qi, but of course, there were only a handful of people who could successfully convert their true qi into fire-based true qi.

But, there was this possibility, and it was enough to drive everyone crazy, because, only by possessing the True Qi of Fire could one become an alchemist revered by all!

"Twice the cultivation speed, it's not bad, it just saves a fortune in cultivation stones."

At the thought of the Spirit Gathering Formation Disk that he had broken, Lu Xuan was somewhat speechless.

"Okay, I'll go there when I have time." Lu Xuan said faintly, while adding in his mind to go over with his original appearance.

"Really?" Han Zhiyun was surprised and delighted, in her eyes, a mysterious and inscrutable high-ranking person like Lu Xuan must be a regular visitor to the Yellow Ranking Tournament, and an expert among experts, not even bothering to watch a match of a mortal life realm martial artist like them.

For Lu Xuan's arrival, she didn't hold out much hope at all.

She didn"t know what was on her mind when she had said that.

But when she got Lu Xuan's affirmative answer, she was so happy that her heart was pounding.

It was like a deer in the headlights.

She took out an incense bag and stammered, "Senior, Senior, I made this with my own hands, it's not too precious, but it can repel mosquitoes...".

She didn't know what she was talking about, shoving the scented sachet into Lu Xuan's hand in one go.

After a moment of slight consternation, Lu Xuan still took it in without further words and turned to leave.

After seeing Lu Xuan leave, Han Zhiyun's mind, which was like a deer in the headlights, slowly calmed down.

Remembering the previous thrilling experience, Zhiyun Han sighed inscrutably.

Throughout all of this, the other person had never once looked her in the eye, and had always treated her as a dispensable figure.

Maybe to such a senior person, saving her life is like saving a small dog or cat on the side of the road, just on a whim and with a little sympathy.

Now that the other side hasn't even revealed their name, doesn't that just represent that idea.

As for coming to the Yellow Ranking Tournament to watch, it could just be a polite remark.

At the thought, Han Zhiyun's mood grew depressed.

With this feeling, Han Zhiyun returned to the Spirit Sky Academy.

Just as she entered the doorway, it happened that Old Man Ling came out furiously.

He was delighted when he saw Han Zhiyun.

"Yun'er, are you alright?"

Even Qi Yun, who wasn't far away, was surprised, "Sister, you're actually fine!".

Han Zhiyun said coldly, "Heh, thanks to someone, I almost died in the back of the mountain."

"Sister, this is not Senior Brother's fault, those two are really strong, even if you and I were to go together, we wouldn't be able to beat them ah..."

"No, the first thing I did when I came back, I reported to Old Man Ling, ready to go back and rescue you."

Qi Yun was embarrassed.
