"Can't she foresee things in her dreams? Asking a good friend won't make h

"Chirp chirp!"

"Your voice is so beautiful!"

Seeing Yuanyuan's blissful expression, Shen Shuan nodded in agreement.

However, Qiao Pingsheng remained unmoved on the arena, only his defensive magic light was broken through layer by layer.

Xie Qingshao was extremely surprised to see Qiao Pingsheng's calm expression.

She gritted her teeth and plucked the strings again. Instantly, the music changed, filled with murderous intent that disturbed people's minds. Seven white light blades shot out from the sky.

However, Qiao Pingsheng remained oblivious, his expression calm and undisturbed. He used the "Earth Escape Technique," forming hand seals and instantly merging into the arena.

Xie Qingshao narrowed her eyes and immediately levitated, guarding against Qiao Pingsheng's sneak attack.

She then slammed her palm against the strings, and with a deep, booming sound, a wave of sound energy exploded outwards from her.

"Fellow Daoist Qiao, I advise you to come out quickly; hiding like this is useless."

Xie Qingshao hovered in the air, her voice calm and elegant, her black hair flying as dust billowed from the surface of the arena below.

The high-ranking members of the Holy Bright Sect on the high platform looked at each other, their expressions grim.

"This ring was built with substandard materials. Who's responsible?"

"Hey, don't look at me, don't look at me, look at Tie Niu!"

Wang Tieniu scratched his head in confusion, feeling bewildered under the gazes of many. "Something's not right," he thought, "this shouldn't be happening!"

At this moment, the patriarch of Lingyin Valley heard the commotion from the Holy Bright Sect and smiled slightly.

"Fellow members of the Holy Bright Sect, this is my Lingyin Valley's 'Shattered Jade Startling String,' a sound wave of qi, not a problem with the quality of the arena."

  

As she finished explaining, all the other sects narrowed their eyes.

Wow, this Lingyin Valley, they played music for people like it was nothing during the exhibition match, I didn't expect them to be so well hidden.

As for the Holy Bright Sect, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Whew, at least it wasn't a quality issue, otherwise they would have been utterly humiliated!

Our Holy Ming Sect values ​​face!

At this moment, Qiao Pingsheng on the arena finally ended his earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of a magical escape technique) state, revealing himself covered in dust and dirt.

Seeing this, Xie Qingshao, as expected, smiled and gently plucked the strings, then began another melodious tune.

"Sage Qiao, I have heard that you have gone through countless hardships, yet you still remain true to your original aspirations. I truly admire you."

"I will play a special piece, 'The Past,' in the hope that Prince George will enjoy it."

As she spoke, Xie Qingshao chuckled softly, and melodious zither music began to play, instantly bringing back memories for everyone present.

Shen Shu'an looked at herself working part-time while studying, blinked, gave a thumbs up, and exclaimed, "Wow, I'm awesome!"

Shen Wanqiu smiled as she looked at the warm memories of the past.

Only Xuan Yi pursed his lips instantly, and then several soul flames appeared around him, shrieking and howling.

The remnant souls glared angrily at Xie Qingshao on the stage: What do you mean? We're already dead, is it interesting to whip our corpses?

The surrounding cultivators also had different expressions, but only the several powerful figures on the high platform and Qiao Pingsheng on the platform remained calm and composed.

"Tsk, that's really strange. How can your kid be so determined?"

The patriarch of the Lingyu Immortal Sect looked longingly at the Tianji Pavilion, saying, "We also want to learn."

However, Guan Xuanzi stroked his beard and shook his head, looking bewildered: "Hiss, fellow Daoist, I really don't know. Although my disciple is resolute, he is by no means that virtuous."

On stage, Xie Qingshao finally realized that something was wrong.

She looked at Qiao Pingsheng, who hadn't been affected by her playing since the beginning, and tentatively asked, "Qiao Pingsheng, is he a dog?"

The words fell, one second, two seconds...

"Is Qiao Pingsheng a big guy?"

However, Qiao Pingsheng did not react at all.

Xie Qingshao gasped, realizing something was wrong. She silently stopped what she was doing and launched her final attack.

"Is Qiao Pingsheng's condition diarrhea?"

However, Qiao Pingsheng remained unfazed!

Xie Qingshao: "!!"

Everyone: "!!!"

At this moment, Qiao Pingsheng also completed his spell.

He put down the "Complete Book of Spells" in his hand, raised his head and said to Xie Qingshao, "Fellow Daoist Xie, I've heard you have a spirit pet that you cherish greatly, is that true?"

Xie Qingshao was slightly startled and took half a step back in mid-air.

But she quickly realized that Qiao Pingsheng had also bought her information!

Xie Qingshao frowned, her gaze a mixture of surprise and doubt: "So what if it is?"

Qiao Pingsheng smiled slightly: "Fellow Daoist, I cast a 'Hearing-Sealing Spell' on myself at the start of the competition, so I can't hear anything."

Hearing Qiao Pingsheng reveal the truth, Xie Qingshao was not surprised.

She had already made some guesses, but she never expected that Qiao Pingsheng would be so ruthless to her. That "Seal Hearing Curse" would block her hearing for a full half month!

"However, judging from your expression, I'm sure I wasn't wrong?"

"In that case, you'd better admit defeat, otherwise..."

Xie Qingshao swallowed hard, nervously asking, "What else can we do?"

"Otherwise, you will have your consciousness swapped with your beloved dog's for three days!"

As soon as Qiao Pingsheng finished speaking, a collective gasp filled the room.

Qiao Pingsheng opened his palm, revealing a tuft of light brown dog hair and a few strands of dark hair.

"Fellow Daoist, I've also heard that your beloved dog has a habit of eating excrement, is that true?"

"Hiss!" xN

Instantly, another collective gasp filled the arena.

Many people tensed up, and Shen Shuan also looked nervously at the round shoulder, feeling a chill run down her spine.

Yuanyuan tilted her head: "Chirp chirp."

No, I'm not afraid. Yuanyuan doesn't eat that.

Shen Shuan breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.

"Chirp chirp."

But sparrows eat insects, humans!

Shen Shu'an: "!!"

"Of course, if even Goddess Xie can accept this, then I, Qiao Pingsheng, concede defeat!"

On the stage, Qiao Pingsheng spoke, raising his hand and clasping his hands in a fist salute to Xie Qingshao.

Xie Qingshao's face turned completely pale, and she staggered back two steps, "Qiao Pingsheng, you!"

She clutched her chest, pointed at Qiao Pingsheng, and was speechless for a moment.

But soon, she leaped off the stage without looking back.

"I surrender."

"But, Qiao Pingsheng, thank you for pointing out my weakness. Next time, I will definitely defeat you!"

Upon seeing this, Qiao Pingsheng quickly clasped his hands in thanks and smiled at the people around him, saying, "Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. Also, everyone, please don't panic. Just carefully collect the feathers and fur from your spirit pets. This technique also requires a medium to be used."

Shen Shu'an, wearing a mask of pain, looked at Qiao Pingsheng's cheerful smile on the stage and suddenly felt a pang of regret.

Shouldn't she have given him directions? Was that the right thing to do?

Shen Wanqiu also had a complicated expression on her face as she looked at Qiao Pingsheng on the stage.

Fellow Daoist Qiao, this is... this is too much...

Xuan Yi then transmitted his voice to Shen Shu'an, saying, "Shen Shu'an, have you forgotten that the three of us have already made a vow to Heaven? You don't need to worry."

Furthermore, Xuan Yi's soul fire quietly floated to Shen Shu'an's left shoulder, gazing longingly at Xuan Yi.

"Why don't you ask her? She's such a nice person, maybe she can help you find a solution?"

"Isn't she able to foresee things in her dreams? Asking a good friend won't make you lose face!"
