: Mission Competition, Covert Protection!

Qin Yi and Feng Ao quickly headed towards the mission hall.

On the way, Feng Ao said in an extremely solemn tone, "Junior Brother Qin, the situation is rather bad. You should be mentally prepared."

"If all else fails, then we'll just have to abandon this chain of missions for now."

"Perhaps a suitable mission will come up in a few days."

"Senior Brother Feng, please tell me, just how bad is it?" Qin Yi asked.

Feng Ao: "This series of quests is related to Feng Hua City, which is something I didn't expect."

"Fenghua City is located within the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, and there is a branch of the Qin family in the city. I told you about this before."

"I originally intended to mobilize the power of the Great Wind Dynasty to lure out the Blood Slaughter Swordsman in Fenghua City, so that you could meet him."

"But I haven't made arrangements for this yet... It's very difficult for our Great Wind Dynasty's spies to infiltrate Fenghua City."

Qin Yi said, "It's alright, I'll act according to the situation."

The biggest risk of this mission is that Fenghua City is located within the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, and there is also a branch of the Qin family in Fenghua City.

However, Qin Yi has another great advantage: as long as he comes into contact with the Blood Slaughter Blade Master in Feng Hua City, the Blood Slaughter Blade Master, who is a Purgatory Killer, can be used by him!

Furthermore, the Blood Slaughterer can further leverage the power of Purgatory.

Feng Ao's face was full of worry.

But Qin Yi's tone was extremely firm.

Feng Ao was quite familiar with Qin Yi and knew that once Qin Yi made a decision, it was very difficult to change his mind.

After a while.

The two arrived at the mission hall.

In front of the mission hall, there is a huge stone tablet.

This stone tablet records information about each mission.

at this time.

The stone tablet was already surrounded by people.

Standing outside the crowd, Qin Yi immediately spotted the information about the series of quests he wanted to claim.

[Personal Task]

[The Black Wind Stronghold Chieftain murdered the descendants of Liao Santong, the alchemist of Fenghua City.]

Head to Black Wind Stronghold and defeat its leader.

The head of the Black Wind Stronghold leader was delivered to Liao Santong, the alchemist of Feng Hua City.

Obtain the reward item from Liao Santong and bring it back to the Mission Hall.

[Task Time Limit: One Month]

[Task Reward: 50,000 Star Points]

"A mission that rewards 50,000 star points is something we ordinary disciples rarely encounter even once a year."

"But this task is too difficult... I know Black Wind Stronghold, and the leader of Black Wind Stronghold is a martial artist with the first level of the Cave Heaven Realm."

"The entire Black Wind Stronghold has more than two hundred bandits, all of whom are ruthless criminals who have tasted blood."

"More importantly, Black Wind Stronghold is located in a dangerous area, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, it is also covered with poisonous miasma, traps, and formations. It is too difficult to kill the leader of Black Wind Stronghold. No wonder he gave a reward of 50,000 star points."

"If this were a team mission, it would be fine, but an individual mission... it's far too difficult. One wrong move and you could lose your life!"

A group of people were discussing it animatedly.

This kind of task is extremely difficult for ordinary disciples, but any core disciple of Tianxing Martial Academy can easily solve it.

The Tianxing Martial Academy sets its missions to provide opportunities for disciples at every level to hone their skills.

It's impossible to let those with high cultivation levels handle everything. If that were the case, how would young people grow?

Qin Yi looked at Feng Ao beside him: "Where do I get the mission?"

Feng Ao asked, "Are you really going?"

Qin Yi nodded: "We absolutely have to go!"

Feng Ao sighed and said, "Come with me."

He led Qin Yi into the main hall of the mission hall, and then came to a female disciple who was in charge of registering missions.

"Junior Sister Lin," Feng Ao greeted her with a smile.

The woman looked up, saw it was Feng Ao, and smiled, saying, "Senior Brother Feng, would you like to accept a mission?"

Feng Ao shook his head: "It wasn't me, it was him."

The woman looked at Qin Yi: "And who is this?"

Feng Ao said, "Our Tianxuan Palace's Golden Core prodigy, Qin Yi."

The woman paused for a moment, then came to her senses and said, "I've long admired your name. May I ask which mission Junior Brother Qin would like to take on?"

Qin Yi said, "Kill the Black Wind Stronghold Chief."

The woman paused again, then asked, "Is this task very difficult? Are you sure?"

Qin Yi hummed in agreement.

The woman said, "Okay, I'll register you."

"I'll take this mission!" Suddenly, a loud voice rang out.

A chubby-faced man walked in.

Qin Yi immediately looked at this person.

Feng Ao recognized this guy and said, "Liu Chui, give me some face, okay?"

The man named Liu Chui shook his head and said, "Feng Ao, this isn't about giving you face; it's about needing these Star Points."

Feng Ao said, "I'll compensate you."

Liu Chui shook his head again: "You understand, the missions of Tianxing Martial Academy, and the Star Points, are often not only closely related to cultivation resources, but also to the improvement of status and reputation."

"The path of martial arts is one of fierce competition!"

"I desperately need this task to prove myself!"

"Therefore, before anyone officially accepts a mission, according to the rules of the Tianxing Martial Academy's Mission Hall, if someone wants to compete for a mission, it's all about who's stronger. Whoever is stronger gets the mission!"

"Feng Ao, although you possess a spiritual body and have already broken through to the eighth level of the superior silver core realm, you are no match for me. I advise you to give up."

"This task is mine," Qin Yi said.

"You?" Liu Chui looked at Qin Yi, his expression hardening. "Qin Yi?"

Qin Yi nodded.

Liu Chui: "Are you sure you want to compete with me?"

Qin Yi said, "The path of martial arts is one of contention. Since that's the case, then today I will contend with you!"

"Alright!" Liu Chui paused for a moment, then said, "Then I'll experience the skills of this Golden Core prodigy!"

After saying that, Liu Chui walked out of the main hall of the mission hall.

Feng Ao stood next to Qin Yi and said, "This Liu Chui comes from Kaiyang Palace. He is a ten-star disciple with the cultivation level of the ninth level of the top-grade silver core, and he also has a high-grade spiritual body of the strength type."

"Junior Brother Qin, are you confident?"

Qin Yi said calmly, "You'll know once you've fought it."

After saying that, Qin Yi walked out of the main hall of the mission hall.

Qin Yi's attempt to compete with Liu Chui for the mission immediately attracted the attention of the people gathered outside the main hall of the mission center.

"I thought Liu Chui was too arrogant to want to take on this mission, but I didn't expect Qin Yi to want to take it too..."

"This Qin Yi possesses a Golden Core and shone brightly in the newcomer trials. However, during the trials, he received assistance from Yun Meng'er's Heavenly Talisman, causing his combat power to soar. Moreover, he was extremely lucky to encounter the Blood Demon Sect's Holy Maiden, who suffered from cultivation backlash..."

"If we're really talking about individual ability, Qin Yi is definitely not as good as Liu Chui."

"If Liu Chui has a 30% chance of completing this mission, then Qin Yi's chance of completing it is probably less than 10%!"

"He can't beat Liu Chui, which is actually a good thing for him, considering the location of this mission... it's like a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire for him!"

Hearing the surrounding noises, Liu Chui looked at Qin Yi and said, "Junior Brother Qin, I understand your situation. Actually, you really don't need to compete with me. You are the least suitable person for this mission!"

Qin Yi had already drawn his sword and said, "Senior Brother Liu, make your move."

Liu Chui hummed in agreement and said, "Then you'd better be careful!"

The words fell.

Liu Chui took a step forward in an instant.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, Liu Chui's body shot towards Qin Yi.

Magnificent!

Among the seven palaces of Tianxing Martial Academy, the Kaiyang Palace cultivates the most masculine and fierce techniques and martial arts.

With a superior strength-type spiritual body and a top-grade silver core level cultivation, Liu Chui, after launching his charge, seemed to transform into a mountain rapidly crashing into Qin Yi.

Just as Liu Chui was about to rush to Qin Yi's side, and that immense power was about to strike Qin Yi,

The sword in Qin Yi's hand suddenly shot up.

Wind, Fire, Thunder, and Swift Sword Technique!

Thunder and lightning shook the heavens!

A fierce wind howled, lightning flashed, and the sword intent of wind and thunder intertwined, transforming into sword energy that instantly shredded the power that Liu Chui had unleashed.

That heavy, mountain-like aura dissipated instantly.

Liu Chui lost his balance and flew backward for dozens of feet. After landing, he took more than ten steps back before he could barely stand up.

Everyone around was stunned.

Qin Yi is that strong?

He defeated Liu Chui, the genius of Kaiyang Palace, in one move!

Liu Chui's face turned pale. He took a deep breath and said, "I admit defeat wholeheartedly and willingly concede defeat!"

"You flatter me!" Qin Yi sheathed his sword.

He returned to the main hall of the mission hall, registered his mission, and then asked Feng Ao to inform Yun Meng'er. He then set off directly from the mission hall, leaving Tianxing Martial Academy.

Half an hour later.

Tianxuan Palace, Mu Wan's residence.

"What?"

"Is Qin Yi going to Feng Hua City?"

"This is utter nonsense!"

Upon hearing the news, Mu Wan's expression changed drastically, and she immediately set off to bring Qin Yi back.

"Sister Wan'er, calm down." Liu Yan, who was staying at Mu Wan's residence, hurriedly grabbed Mu Wan's arm.

"Qin Yi probably wants to become a five-star disciple as soon as possible so that he can represent Tianxuan Palace in the Tianxing Grand Competition and repay your kindness to him."

"The method this kid chose was too risky, but since he's already set off, have you considered his feelings about going back to capture him?"

"He's just like Senior Brother Qin Dao—stubborn as a mule!"

"Moreover, if he's forbidden from going or doing this just because of danger outside, how can he become a truly upright and honorable man?"

Mu Wan understood these principles, but she couldn't rest easy at all, and said, "But..."

Liu Yan said, "Sister Wan'er, many eyes are on you now. You can't act rashly. As for Qin Yi, don't worry, I'll personally go and secretly protect him!"
