　　Aside from really good luck, this woman could not possibly have any other abilities.

　　Wen Ya narrowed her eyes and glanced at Gu Ruoyun before returning her attention to the Left Emissary.

　　When she noticed the ugly look on the Left Emissary’s face as well, a cold light flashed across her eyes, leaving as quickly as it came.

　　“The next part of the competition shall determine the top three amongst you.” The Left Emissary’s eyes carried a cold and distant air as he spoke haughtily, “I’ve asked the members of the Secret Order to prepare the arena. By then, everyone from all the organizations present must step into battle. The remaining few shall be the champions of this competition. The second and third place shall be determined based on the order of succession. As swords and knives are without sight, it’s difficult to prevent injuries from happening. Do you understand?”

　　“We understand!”

　　The crowd replied in unison.

　　“Alright. You will now head to the arena to compete.” The Left Emissary pointed at the arena in front of them then eyed Wen Ya meaningfully.

　　Wen Ya understood his meaning when she noticed the look in the man’s eye. She nodded emotionlessly and turned away.

　　However, Gu Ruoyun managed to catch the interaction between the two from the corner of her eye…

　　She calmly raised the corners of her lips, “The four of you don’t need to fight after this. Leave everyone here to me. I want to solidify my newly-promoted late stage exceptional state cultivation base. Coincidentally, they’re going to let me do it.”

　　Chu Luo stared at Gu Ruoyun in astonishment. However, after remembering the divine objects in Gu Ruoyun’s possession, she nodded. “Alright.”

　　With the help of those Divine Weapons, the others might not be able to hurt her Master even if they were to attack her together at once.

　　…

　　“Xiao Qian,” Wen Ya turned away as a cold light flashed in her pretty eyes. “Both of us must join forces if we want to kill this woman. Furthermore, you should keep using that Spirit Gathering Pill as a bait so we can manipulate the others to our advantage and deal with Gu Ruoyun together.”

　　Murong Qian nodded, “Alright, I understand what I should do.”

　　However, Murong Qian could not understand why Wen Ya did not bribe those people herself and had made her do it instead. Wen Ya was only using Murong Qian to protect the Wen family’s reputation…

　　However, the foolish Murong Qian was under the impression that Wen Ya was going to step out to avenge her this time so her face was filled with gratitude.

　　The organizations stepped up to the arena and drew their weapons, ready to defend themselves in the upcoming battle.

　　“Gu Ruoyun, you probably never thought that you would fall into my clutches!” Murong Qian climbed onto the arena and stared venomously with eyes like daggers towards Gu Ruoyun. “Since you’ve stepped into this arena, there’s no reason for you to leave! I’ll make you understand that crossing the Murong family will result in paying the ultimate price!”

　　She paused at this point before continuing, “Anyone who manages to kill this woman will be rewarded with a Spirit Gathering Pill!”

　　The crowd’s eyes lit up when they heard the words ‘Spirit Gathering Pill’. They then swept their blood-thirsty gaze towards Gu Ruoyun.

　　Rush!

　　Without any hesitation, everyone charged towards Gu Ruoyun in unison. Their blades flashed as they brandished them in the arena…

　　“All of you, stay back!”

　　Gu Ruoyun stared at the crowd charging towards her and coldly ordered.

　　She then pulled a sword from out of thin air.

　　It was a broken sword with only a hilt but no blade. It looked rather laughable.

　　Of course, Murong Qian had indeed burst into laughter.
