In an instant.
Winter Bamboo Shootâs divine soul shuddered, as if acupoints were struck, freezing her in place, her bloodshot eyes filled with daze.
Behind her, the Dharma Shadow dissipated, and the massive halberd clanged down onto the arena, creating a series of cracks.
"Crack, crack!"
After a burst of rapid photography to capture the moment, Wang Baoguang flickered to her side and chuckled, "Young lady, focusing only on the power of big moves wonât do, the startup time is too long."
As he spoke, he kicked Winter Bamboo Shoot in the rear, sending her flying dozens of yards away.
The intense pain brought her back to her senses instantly, and she roared with fury and shock, "Bastard, you scoundrel, Iâll kill..."
"Enough!" Lu Qiu Qingyang couldnât stand it any longer and angrily reprimanded, "Winter Bamboo Shoot, we should acknowledge our lack of skill and train well to regain our honor in the future."
"Yes, Legion Leader." Winter Bamboo Shoot retreated to her ranks, blushing with embarrassment.
"Hehe~ Wang Shouzhe, youâre quite something~" Lu Qiu Qingyang gritted her teeth, glaring at Wang Shouzhe, "You actually found such a wretched brat to play the fool and catch tigers, quite entertaining~"
She had seen through it too, the boy named [Wang Baoguang], purely in terms of bloodline awakening level, was already on par with her, both at the level of sons and daughters of heaven. It was normal that Winter Bamboo Shoot was not a match.
"Baoguangâs strength isnât weak, itâs not just playing dumb," Wang Shouzhe, although disapproving of Baoguangâs wretched combat style, still appreciated his fighting power.
"I donât care about him, I just care about you."
Lu Qiu Qingyang couldnât be bothered to listen to his explanations, stepping onto the arena effortlessly.
With a raise of her hand, the traditional immortal weapon of the East Sea Immortal King Mansion â [Burning Heaven Spear] â fell into her hand, and with a wave, flames surged, nearly filling the entire arena.
"Wang Shouzhe, letâs duel once, if you win, Iâll admit you are formidable."
"..." Wang Shouzhe shook his head, "I havenât fought in ages, and weâre not children... donât be so childish."
"Arenât we all children?" Lu Qiu Qingyang looked bewildered, "A bit of childishness is normal, right?"
This sense of age...
Wang Shouzhe rubbed his temples, "Qingyang, how old are you?"
"Iâm still young, only four hundred and eighty-one years old." Lu Qiu Qingyang boasted, "Seventh layer of Divine Power Territory cultivation base."
"..."
Wang Shouzhe was speechless.
After a moment, he continued, "I am also at the seventh layer of Divine Power Territory cultivation base, but Iâm a few decades younger than you. How about this, just sparring isnât very interesting, by the way, do you have money?"
"What do you want to do?" Lu Qiu Qingyang stared at Wang Shouzhe warily.
"Letâs wager something, how about three Chaos Spirit Stones for whoever wins?" Wang Shouzhe was slightly tempted.
With so many descendants in the family, resources are never enough, so one should seize any opportunity to make a profit.
"Three Chaos Spirit Stones?" Lu Qiu Qingyangâs face turned red, lacking confidence as she said, "I donât have that much money."
Though the East Sea Immortal King Mansion is quite wealthy and the East Sea Immortal King dotes on Lu Qiu Qingyang, how could there possibly be so many Chaos Spirit Stones given to her?
"How much do you have?" Wang Shouzhe appeared slightly disappointed.
"Well, I can barely scrape together around thirty Immortal Spirit Stones." Lu Qiu Qingyangâs heart was slightly uneasy.
Truth be told, sheâs already considered a well-known little rich lady, why does she feel like a poor miser compared to Wang Shouzhe?
"Fine, weâll bet thirty Immortal Spirit Stones." Wang Shouzhe decisively concluded, leaping onto the arena, "Little Immortal King Qingyang, Iâll let you make the first move."
Thirty Immortal Spirit Stones are no small amount, worth taking action once, and it can add an Immortal Artifact to the household for the kids.
Lu Qiu Qingyang was a bit confused, did she agree to the wager?
However, with the bow drawn, an arrow must be released. Lu Qiu Qingyang had great confidence in her combat ability, at least throughout the Tianrui Saint Dynasty, in the same age group, she should be invincible. That Wang Shouzhe is decades younger than her, so how could she admit defeat?
"Fine! A wager it is, then itâs settled for thirty Immortal Spirit Stones." Lu Qiu Qingyang gripped the Burning Heaven Spear, striking directly at Wang Shouzhe.
The surging flames filled the sky instantly.
Once serious, Lu Qiu Qingyang indeed seemed formidable in strength.
In response, Wang Shouzhe remained calm and unhurried.
Without seeing Wang Shouzhe move, in front of him appeared two shields, one being the half-immortal shield [Shield Mountain], acquired at the officer training camp. The other, the half-immortal shield [Military Shield], was garbage picked in the Divine Martial Heavenly Ruins by Anye, refurbished to become one of his shields.
The two half-immortal shields combined force, completely covering Wang Shouzhe, blocking the overwhelming flames outside.
Currently, Wang Shouzhe has only these two shields. The other divine treasure level and dao-level shields have gradually been "eliminated" and left for the descendants, with Liu Anquan currently wandering with Wang Ying Xuan.
Meanwhile.
A crimson immortal bow flew out, suspended above Wang Shouzheâs head, persistently shooting flaming arrows toward Lu Qiu Qingyang, but each arrow was parried away by Lu Qiu Qingyang.
This was Wang Shouzheâs Shooting Sun Immortal Bow.
"Shooting Sun, just auto-attack, focus on harassment." Wang Shouzhe instructed.
"Yes, Master." The Shooting Sun Immortal Bow began to circle around the arena, continuously harassing Lu Qiu Qingyang, delaying her steps.
