Life and death match

Tian Zang's Brother: Miss Xiao, these six poems were truly remarkable.

Tian Zang's Father: Xiao, congratulations. The 1000-year-old ginger is now yours.

[Everyone congratulated Xiao.]

[After some time, Xiao went outside to the garden to get some fresh air when suddenly she overheard her mother's name and decided to investigate.]

Tian Zang: Mother, that Xiao humiliated me in front of everyone. Why can't you kill her, just like you killed her mother?

Tian Kai: Yes, Mother. You should teach her a lesson, just as you did with her mother.

Tian Zang's Mother: Do not worry. She will meet her end sooner or later. I have poisoned her.

Tian Zang: Her mother's expression was priceless when she pleaded for Xiao's life.

Tian Zang's Mother: Haha, indeed. She clung to my legs and begged. She even crawled on the ground, but she died in the end, and the same fate awaits Xiao.

Tian Kai: That's great, Mother.

[Xiao recorded all of this on a recording stone and showed it to everyone. All three culprits were punished for their crimes.]

[Everyone returned home.]

Brother: Who could have known that the Tian family was like this? They poisoned you and killed our mother.

Grandfather: Tsk, what a disgraceful family...

Butler: Young Miss, you have received a challenge for a life and death match from Miss Li Zuan of the Li family.

Xiao: The Li family? Why does the Li family want to fight?

Brother: Li Zuan and Tian Kai were best friends. I believe she seeks revenge. Xiao, do not accept!

Xiao: No, Brother. I will accept; otherwise, they will think we are afraid of them.

Brother: But Xiao, she is at level 9 of the Saint Realm, and you are at level 8.

Xiao: Brother, I can handle it.

Xiao: Butler, please inform them that we accept their challenge and will meet them tomorrow.

Butler: Yes, Young Miss.

[Xiao continued to learn more techniques and prepared to face the fight the following day.]

Li Zuan: Xiao, I will take my revenge today for what you did to my friend.

Xiao: They received the consequences they deserved. This has nothing to do with you. If you still wish to fight, then come.

[The fight ensued, and all of Li Zuan's attacks were successfully countered by Xiao.]

Li Zuan: Xiao, you have a solid foundation, but I have no choice but to resort to this.

[Li Zuan turned to a dark path and summoned the power of a devil, intending to kill Xiao. Xiao was struck by a powerful attack, resulting in an injury. However, her life was saved by the system's use of a divine pill. Li Zuan perished.]

[After one year, Xiao advanced to the spiritual realm (level 2) and gained the ability to create low-level divine pills. The day of the competition for the inheritance finally arrived.]

Grandfather: Xiao, best of luck. You can do it.

Xiao: Yes, Grandpa.

Competition Host: All participants are requested to come forward and begin creating your pills. The participant who creates the highest-level healing pill will be granted the inheritance. The materials are placed on the table to the left of your furnace.
