Chapter 1069: An Shao Is the Master’s Rib

"I too am unwilling..."

The audience descended into chaos, with all the cultivators expressing their dissatisfaction.

Luo Xiangsheng’s face turned extremely unpleasant, his gaze viciously sweeping over the crowd: "Simply because you are weak, and our disciples from the Luo Sha Sect excel, we have long stood at the pinnacle of the cultivator world! You deserve to be used as stepping stones!"

He spoke these words with a domineering confidence.

Indeed, looking across Beijing, apart from the Xuanji Sect, it’s impossible to find many Golden Core cultivators.

Luo Xiangsheng’s arrogant demeanor was reflected in Gu Jin’s eyes, she couldn’t help but show sarcasm on her face.

In her heart, she thought, this person has been in the Hidden Market for years, probably unaware that there’s always someone better.

She nodded slightly to Wanqi Jingyi behind her: "You go down first."

"Yes, Master!"

The young master of Wanqi obediently stepped down, preventing Gu Jin from any additional trouble.

He knew that Master intended to take action today, and a trace of excited anticipation rose in his heart.

In his mind, Gu Jin was a miracle, undefeated in all battles.

For her, there was no formidable enemy in this world.

Of course, except for An Mingji.

Young Master An was Master’s rib, an irreplaceable presence in her heart.

The young master of Wanqi returned to his seat, inadvertently glancing at An Mingji, who sat calmly a few seats away.

He appeared composed and calm, his jet-black eyes fixed on the duel platform, a hint of tenderness and affection in his eyes.

No need to look, Wanqi Jingyi knew whom he was watching.

No one other than Master.

On the duel platform.

Gu Jin raised her hand, gently tucking a strand of hair blown to her cheek back behind her ear.

Since both Luo Sha Sect and Yin Yue Sect have blatantly expressed their interest in the Xuanji Sect, how could she not respond?

Her voice was calm as she spoke: "Shall we continue with the competition, or should I fight you all and swiftly resolve it?"

More arrogant than Luo Xiangsheng, mixed with impatience, her words caused everyone’s faces to change drastically.

"Such big talk!"

Luo Xiangsheng had never been so challenged in decades.

Especially by a young girl, making him extremely displeased, his face turning dark and vicious.

Gu Jin tilted her head slightly, not bothered at all: "You’re being too generous, I’m actually very low-key, but unfortunately, this world has bothersome pests that won’t stop buzzing in your ear, making you restless, forcing you to take action."

Ever since entering the cultivator tournament, the intense smell of blood in the surroundings had put Gu Jin in a bad mood.

At the start of the match, Yin Yue Sect’s disciples killed and cruelly absorbed others’ cultivation.

The disciples of Luo Sha Sect lost, yet couldn’t concede, trying to bully the weak.

All of these behaviors were utterly loathsome.

If she could swiftly resolve it, she wouldn’t mind dealing with it all at once.

Luo Xiangsheng’s cultivation, like hers, was at the Golden Core stage.

As for which level he reached within the Golden Core period was unknown, only through a true match would it be revealed.

"Since you’re seeking death, let this old man send you on your way!"

How could Luo Xiangsheng not detect that Gu Jin’s words were intended to provoke, and he fixed his cold gaze on her as if she were a fish on the chopping board, ready to be butchered.

With those words, he dashed towards Gu Jin, bringing with him a powerful murderous aura.

Gu Jin didn’t retreat, stepping up to meet him head-on.

Their spiritual powers collided in the void, creating a massive disturbance.

With a loud bang!

Those sitting closest to the duel platform had their tables and chairs shattered.

Subsequent was a sky full of dust rising, carried by the wind of spiritual power, blowing against everyone’s faces.

On stage, as the two fought, it affected everyone around them.
