System's Super Sect-Chapter 672 - 669. Accept the challenge!

Huai Ye and the other two nodded eagerly.

It was clear that all three of them were keen to go.

Of course, none of them were going just to watch the spectacle. If it were just for the excitement, the many tournaments of geniuses in the Secret Realm would be more than enough to captivate them. Wen Ping knew without needing to think about it; they were all after one particular thing.

The Magic Broom!

Honestly, Wen Ping was quite interested in seeing it as well.

Magic was in its initial stages in the Immortal Sect, and the Magic Broom was a highly representative item in the Magic World. He had already seen the clash between magic and this world’s Vein Technique, and so far, no countermeasure had been found.

Of course, that didn’t mean no one would ever find a way to counter the magic. Wen Ping believed someone would eventually figure it out.

What about magic?

Will it remain impotent against Vein Techniques?

Or will it swiftly find a way to counterattack?

After all, this world’s Vein Technique, no matter how you look at it, remains a powerful force in constructing a world. Just like magic and techniques.

Wen Ping thought for a moment; he should find some time to go and witness it, even if time was a bit tight now.

"Let’s all go and take a look then."

The trio chuckled, immensely pleased.

"Long live the Sect Leader!"

...

In the Secret Realm.

Nanmen Chang and Xia Ye were already outside the combat area holding challenge letters, waiting.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, they simultaneously handed their challenge letters to Bu Lan and Bainian Xiang. Xia Ye had a smile on his face, but beneath that smile lurked a very sharp knife. Nanmen Chang’s face was stern, as if he was convinced Bu Lan wouldn’t dare to accept.

"Want to play?"

"Xia Family and Nanmen Chang!"

As soon as the two spoke, the onlookers hushed, barely daring to breathe, their eyes fixed on this scene.

Will they accept?

Or will they not accept?

And so, as a dozen breaths passed, Bu Lan, the strongest in their group, looked rather awkward. He glanced around, unwilling to stubbornly raise his hand and the intent to leave began to arise.

On the Floating Island, Xiahou saw this scene and then looked at the tens of thousands of people watching around, feeling overjoyed.

This was exactly the scene he wanted!

The Hidden Dragon Sect humiliated, unable to lift their heads before the Xia Family!

Xiahou immediately said loudly, "If you don’t dare to accept, let it be. Our Xia Family doesn’t like to squeeze soft targets either!"

With this statement, many people from Four-star Influences, and even Four-star Giant Influences, burst into laughter.

A four-star giant influence being publicly referred to as a soft target.

Outside the combat area, upon hearing Xiahou’s words, Nanmen Chang and the others intended to retrieve the challenge letters. But at that moment, a hand suddenly reached over and snatched one of the two challenge letters—this was a very fair and slender hand. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Xia Ye paused and glanced at the hand, the challenge letter already gone. When he looked up and saw who held it, he was initially surprised, but then a playful smile unfurled on his face.

"Whoa—"

"You’ve got guts!"

Bainian Xiang clutched the challenge letter in one hand, showing a hint of anger on her face, and said, "More guts than your Xia Family members."

Xia Ye laughed, "Guts aren’t just about talk. You’ve taken this challenge letter, so no backing out!"

Bainian Xiang responded, "Loser isn’t allowed to cry!"

"Hahahaha—" Xia Ye laughed up to the sky, "I must admit, you’re pretty amusing. Funny girls do score extra points, but this is still a Life and Death Battle. Set a time; I can give you plenty of time to prepare."

"No need, we can enter the combat area immediately." Bainian Xiang replied without a thought.

"Alright."

Xia Ye shook his head, showing a helpless expression.

On the Floating Island, upon seeing this scene, the people of the Hidden Dragon Sect were startled and instantly wanted to descend the Floating Island to the combat area.

Bainian Xiang was still too impulsive.

She accepted the challenge rashly just because of a few provokings.

Everyone was about to rise when Xiahou blocked them, saying, "No need to go. Once a challenge letter is accepted, it cannot be returned. This is the rule of the Hundred Sects Alliance! And regardless, you’ve already lost face, why care when you lose it?"

Bu Ling watched from below as Xia Ye led his people into the combat area, anxiously saying, "Sect Leader, what should we do? Losing face is not the issue, but if the Xia Family people get serious..."

"Blades and swords have no eyes." Xiahou interjected, his gaze exuding a murderous intent.

Upon hearing this, Bainian Hanshan’s face immediately turned cold.

"If you dare to harm my daughter, after the Centennial Event, it will be the day we settle life and death! Perhaps our Young Hidden Dragon Sect is not as good as your Xia Family this generation, but we are evenly matched now!"

Listening to this, Xiahou didn’t retaliate with harsh words but smiled meaningfully and said, "Don’t worry, what’s the point of killing her? I have a more entertaining approach than that. Besides, your daughter seemed to have already used it."

"You!"

The icy stare from Bainian Hanshan sent chills down people’s spines, making them afraid.

Anyone could see that Bainian Hanshan was genuinely angry!

If not for the Hundred Sects Alliance’s restraints, Bainian Hanshan might have drawn his sword right then and there.

...

On the Floating Island.

Accompanied by H Lan, Wen Ping found a spot to stand, looking down while listening to those around him discuss Bainian Xiang. He couldn’t help but ask someone talking nearby.

"Friend, how did the Hidden Dragon Sect win the first match?"

The person glanced at Wen Ping and replied casually, "With a kind of swordsmanship, never seen before... the sword can fly a hundred feet and can easily pierce the Barbaric Demon Spirit Body."

After speaking, he went on to chat with others about his own things.

As Wen Ping turned back, he heard Huai Ye and the others next to him discussing.

"It should be Sword Control Skill, right?"

"Did Junior Sister Bainian Xiang use only Sword Control Skill in the first match?"

As they chatted, Lin Kewu suddenly asked, "Sect Leader, do you think Junior Sister Bainian Xiang can win this second match?"

Wen Ping replied, "Winning or losing isn’t really the point. She’s only been in the Immortal Sect for a month or two; losing now may not be a bad thing. As long as she keeps working hard at cultivation, Heaven and Earth Lake will certainly not bind her stage. Of course, perhaps these few people aren’t qualified to make her lose today. It depends on how she uses what she has learned."

...

In the combat area.

With Xia Ye and the others steadily entering, the cheering from the surroundings was like waves, one wave after another.

Of course, most of it was to stir things up.

The real clash between the Xia Family and the Hidden Dragon Sect at the Rookie Battle had begun.

The Xia Family Patriarch Xiahou’s son Xia Ye versus the Hidden Dragon Sect Sect Leader Bainian Hanshan’s daughter Bainian Xiang.

In the eyes of many, the beginning was indeed the end.

Xia Ye, ranked over nine hundred in the rookie list, with two team members in the Upper Profound Realm; despite not ranking high, the Realm was still there. Besides, there were also two in the Middle Profound Realm, considered a weak point.

But compared to the Hidden Dragon Sect, they were still overly luxurious.

Bainian Xiang’s team only had Bu Lan in the Upper Profound Realm, and he had just gone through a fierce battle, depleting his Spirit Body considerably.

But at this moment, when Bu Lan and the rest were reluctantly preparing to enter the combat area, Bainian Xiang stopped them with her sword.

"You don’t need to enter!"
