Yi Mingzhu was already standing before her opponent, a young cultivator from the Cloud Sect, and Yi Shu had already told her about her opponent's abilities. 'She's also a cultivator with the Wind element, huh?'

"Since you don't want to attack me, I will attack you first." After saying that, the female cultivator immediately moved swiftly, and her speed was relatively fast in the eyes of other cultivators.

Even Yi Mingzhu herself could barely see her opponent's speed, but she immediately closed her eyes and muttered the words Xiao Feng had once taught her in her heart. 'I am the wind, and the wind is me. Become one with the wind and feel the changes in your surroundings, then you will be able to feel the movement of every living thing around you.'

Suddenly, Yi Mingzhu's body was enveloped by a bright green aura, and a thin vortex appeared around her. Soon, a faint smile appeared on her pretty face, and she disappeared from the cultivators' sight.

"What the hell?"

"Hey, that woman's speed is really amazing."

"True, I can't follow her movements at all."

The cultivators started to wonder as they tried to follow Yi Mingzhu's movements, but their efforts were in vain, for they couldn't see her.

Even the young cultivators like the Lei Sisters, Chen Zong, Qin Wen, and others were shocked by Yi Mingzhu's speed.

However, Yi Mingzhu's speed was still insignificant in the eyes of those ancestors and the three leaders of the ancient clans, and they could still follow her movements clearly.

Ling Yun smiled smugly at Yi Mingzhu's progress, and he was sure his aunt could end the first-round battle quickly.

*Swish... Swish...*

In an instant, they all heard the howling of the wind and a wave of wind that was strong enough to sweep over their bodies because of a clash of attacks between Yi Mingzhu and her opponent.

Although Yi Mingzhu's speed was much faster than her opponent's, the woman had more combat experience than her, and she repeatedly thwarted her attacks.

Yi Mingzhu didn't give up easily and continued to launch consecutive attacks on her opponent using her high speed. Even so, she felt a little frustrated by her opponent's abilities. 'She is strong!'

"I admit that your speed is indeed extraordinary, but you won't be able to defeat me just by relying on your attack speed." The woman said as she parried Yi Mingzhu's attack and immediately kicked her in the stomach, but she moved again immediately after.

"Gah!" Yi Mingzhu groaned softly, and her body was blown backward, but she immediately stabilized himself, and her eyes looked around, following the woman's movement. 'Sigh, I was too confident in my speed, and I thought I could beat her if I surpassed her speed. If this continues, our fight will last too long, so I'll use that.'

"Hmm?" The woman frowned as she watched Yi Mingzhu wave her hands. Soon, five walls of wind surrounded the two of them, but they continued to shrink, narrowing their range of motion. 'Does she really want to fight me in close combat?'

"Hmm?" The woman raised her eyebrows as Yi Mingzhu's body was enveloped by the wind, and she was shocked when the wind formed a green wind armor, but she didn't know that it was her typhoon equipment set. "What? How can you do that? How can you control the wind so perfectly?"

"Hehe." Yi Mingzhu chuckled at that; she then pointed her green fan at the woman. "Because I have an excellent Master who has taught me so many things, I can't let him down. Shall we resume our fight now?"

"Although your wind control is far more perfect than mine, you won't be able to beat me easily." The woman said as two green swords appeared in her hands, and she directly attacked Yi Mingzhu. "Let's continue our fight!"

However, Yi Mingzhu immediately waved her fan at the woman, startling her when a wave of green wind rushing toward her.

*Swish... Swish...*

"Shit!" The woman cursed and tried to parry Yi Mingzhu's attack, but instead, she was pushed back, and her body ended up hitting the wall of wind, causing the back of her dress to rip. "Gah!" 'Damn it! Her wind has become even stronger than before.'

But alas, the woman didn't know that the typhoon equipment set helped Yi Mingzhi enhance her Wind Qi, strengthening her wind.

Before the woman could move, Yi Mingzhu had waved her fan again, and several crescent winds rushed at her. 'Shit! I can't possibly dodge her multiple attacks!'

*Swish... Swish...*

Without thinking, the woman immediately covered her body with her wind Qi, and she thought it could at least reduce Yi Mingzhu's attack power. Unfortunately, her thoughts were wrong, for the wind that enveloped her body was suddenly sucked in by the crescent winds. 'Crap!'

*Bam...Bam...

"Argh!" The woman screamed in pain as Yi Mingzhu's attack hit her body, causing her dress to become tattered, allowing men to see the smoothness of her white skin. "Cough... Cough..."

Suddenly, Yi Mingzhu stood before her and pressed her fan against the woman's chest. "I don't want to hurt you anymore, so you better give up now."

The woman looked up at Yi Mingzhu and nodded at her. "Sigh, I don't understand how your wind suddenly became so strong, but I realized I couldn't beat you as long as you wore your wind armor, so I give up."

Yi Mingzu instantly removed the wind walls surrounding them, stored her typhoon equipment set again, and covered the woman with a spare dress. "Honestly, you are much stronger and more experienced than me, and I wouldn't be able to beat you without my equipment, so you don't need to be disappointed by your defeat."

The woman stood up and shook her head at Yi Mingzhu. "You don't need to say that; we cultivators can't fight without our equipment, so it's your win."

"En." Yi Mingzhu nodded to her.

Xuanyuan Xue'er directly announced the winner. "The winner is Yi Mingzhu!"

After that, the woman returned to Qin Shuang's side and said quietly. "I'm sorry, Master. I couldn't beat that woman."

"It's fine." Qin Shuang replied as she rubbed the woman's head. "Honestly, I knew from the start that you wouldn't be able to beat her, but you don't need to be sad because your skills are already good, and you can still develop yourself even more."

"Yes, Master." The woman answered with a nod.

.

Meanwhile, Xiao Feng immediately said to his disciple. "Mingzhu, you still have to hone your combat skills again and learn not to rely on your equipment, or you will become dependent on it."

"Yes, Master." Yi Mingzhu nodded in agreement, and her look showed she was eager to get better.

Xiao Feng nodded in satisfaction seeing her expression. "However, your wind control has gotten much better now, or else you won't be able to use those wind walls for so long, but you still can't be complacent. I know that all of you will sooner or later leave this lower realm, and many cultivators are stronger than us in higher realms, so you must constantly strive to become stronger, for cultivation is truly boundless."

"I understand, Master."

Ling Yun then pulled Yi Mingzhu into his arms and briefly kissed her lips. "After this competition ends, we will all enter seclusion again, and I will definitely help you become stronger and proficient in combat."

"Hehe." Yi Mingzhu giggled and hugged her nephew back.

However, Ling Yun frowned as he felt an even stronger killing intent directed toward him, and he glanced at Chen Xiang, who seemed enraged to see them embrace each other. 'Heh! Since you want to kill me badly, don't blame me then.'

After he said that, Ling Yun released his Chaos Dragon aura toward Chen Xiang and pressed him firmly, causing him to crash to the ground and break out in a cold sweat.

.

.

"What happened to you, Ancestor?" Chen Wentian and Liu Ruyue asked in shock.

However, Chen Xiang couldn't answer their questions, for he was suppressed by Ling Yun's aura. 'Fuck! What kind of pressure is this? How could he suppress me this hard? I can't even move my finger a bit.'

*Splurt*

"Gah!" Chen Xiang suddenly spurted blood from his mouth and groaned in pain as something entered his body, and he felt that his body was being eaten away by something from within his body.

"Ancestor!" Chen Wentian, Liu Ruyue, Chen Zong, and Chen Rong exclaimed loudly after they saw that.

'Damn it! What happened? How could he attack me using only his aura?' Chen Xiang continued to curse inside his heart as he endured the pain in his body.

Liu Zhen immediately tried to help Chen Xiang, but he couldn't lift him off the ground, making him frown. He then turned towards Ling Yun, knowing that his best friend kept glancing at his woman before. 'Did he do this to him? But how can he do it from such a distance?'

"What happened to him, Father?" Liu Ruyue suddenly asked her father.

Liu Zhen took a deep breath and answered her. "That Ling Yun did this to Chen Xiang."

"Huh?" They immediately turned to Ling Yun, but he only smiled at them, shocking them.

However, Chen Zong clenched his fists tightly, and his expression showed he was impatient to face Ling Yun. "I admit you are powerful, but I will use all my experience and ability to defeat you."
