Chapter 224: Someone Else is Envious Again

Cao Jinkai withdrew first, his heart pounding.

For a brief moment, he felt a lethal crisis emanating from Xie Jiuniang.

Without time to think further, he conceded!

After admitting defeat, he felt somewhat annoyed, but soon he saw the sense in it—it was but a normal sparring match, not a duel to the death, so there was no need to dwell on it.

Xie Jiuniang sat down cross-legged to restore her spiritual power.

A quarter of an hour later, another challenger was called upon.

With a Nascent Soul Elder watching nearby, most challengers dared not resort to underhanded tactics. Even if they wanted to, it would be futile because a Nascent Soul True Lord would surely teach them a lesson.

Being exposed on the spot was a minor issue, but losing face was a major one.

The time it took for Xie Jiuniang to defeat each challenger grew shorter and shorter.
