Chapter 368 Tournament (12)
Since the young master had fainted, Bi Qing didn’t waste any time at all as she started walking out of the arena.
She didn’t even wait for the referee to declare that the fight was over.
When everyone saw this, they couldn’t help being pulled back out of their shock as they were filled with anger.
But at the same time, there wasn’t anything that they could say about this since they really couldn’t understand what had just happened.
If it was one time, they could have considered it a coincidence. But now that it had happened twice, once with Young Master Mo and now with this young master, they couldn’t call it a coincidence anymore.
This was Bi Qing’s real power, one that they couldn’t match at all.
After Bi Qing left the stage, the referee had no choice but to declare her the winner even though it was clear what the result was. After all, he was the referee and he still had to follow the proper procedures.
He walked over to the young master and checked on him before making this call.
Part of it was to keep up appearances, but the other part was to make sure that this young master wasn’t dead.
Even if there was the explanation that fists were blind in a fight, it would put them in an awkward position if this young master was dead.
After taking his pulse and making sure that he was knocked out, the referee let out a sigh of relief before making the call.
This time, the crowd couldn’t make fun of Bi Qing like they had done before.
She had shown her power and it had slapped them across the face.
They knew that she had the power to back up the arrogance that she showed, so no one dared to underestimate her again.
In fact, the ones that had the ugliest expressions right now were the seeded contestants that had won today.
They would be drawing tomorrow to see who would be facing her, but none of them had been able to see what she had done. If they were to fight tomorrow, it would be very likely that they would be lying on the ground just like that young master today.
This would be without a doubt a strong blow to their reputations, so they couldn’t accept it.
But they just couldn’t think of a way to fight against Bi Qing.
Though they had the ugliest expressions, there was someone who had an uglier expression.
As Bi Qing left the arena, she turned to look in Lin Fan’s direction.
This time, she had even given him a wink, making it clear that she could see through his illusion spell.
But that shouldn’t be right since Lin Fan was currently borrowing Mu Bao Bao’s power to put up the barrier.
This should be strong enough to block the senses of someone in the Qi Condensing Realm…
So how had Bi Qing been able to see through it?
Could it be that she was above the Qi Condensing Realm and was in the Gold Core Realm?
If she was, that was even worse.
Why would someone in the Gold Core Realm be interested in him?
Was it just because of what he had said to her that day?
If it was, then that meant that she would want her revenge against him for threatening her…but that wasn’t what it seemed like.
Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling more and more confused about what Bi Qing wanted.𝑂𝓥𝐋xt.𝑐𝑶𝓂
It was as if she was just playing around and she didn’t have anything in mind…
But he knew that couldn’t be the case.
After Bi Qing’s match, the round of eight was over and everyone headed off. However, there were many people who weren’t in the mood to drink…
After all, they had let the momentum go to their head and they had said quite a few things that could be considered overboard towards Bi Qing.
Now that they knew just how powerful she was…they were afraid of being retaliated against by her.
So there were many people that headed home and boarded themselves up right away.
Of course, nothing happened to them that night, but they were restless all night out of fear.
When morning came, the city was filled with excitement once more.
It was the round of four, the semifinals.
This was where the best of the best fought against each other.
After what happened yesterday, people were very excited about seeing the results.
After all, there had been a rivalry that had been created between Bi Qing and the other seeded contestants. Now that they had seen her true power, they wanted to see if anyone would be able to expose her and make her use more of it.
They were all excited to see what kind of power Bi Qing really held.
When the seeded contestants entered the arena though, they had ugly expressions on their faces.
They had thought all night about a way to counter Bi Qing, but they hadn’t been able to think of a single thing. The only thing that they could do now was try to use their strongest abilities before they were taken out by Bi Qing’s sudden attack.
But of course, they didn’t have any confidence in being able to take down Bi Qing before that happened…
At this point, they wished that there was another incident that happened that would delay their match. Or if possible, they wished that there would be an incident that would directly hurt Bi Qing and incapacitate her so that they could win without fighting her.
That didn’t happen in the end.
As they stood there on the stage waiting for the drawing to happen, they could only pray that they didn’t get matched with her.
The organizers also knew who the center of attention was, so they also acted on it.
The first one called up to draw a lot was Bi Qing and the number that she drew was number one, so she was put in the first match.
After seeing the number that she drew, the other three all looked at each other and came to an understanding…don’t draw the number two!
They were all hoping that someone else would draw it first so that they wouldn’t need to worry about it anymore.
But at the same time, they didn’t want to be the first one up to draw…
So they wanted the others to go up first.
In the end, it wasn’t up to them who went to draw first. It was up to the organizers since they were the ones that decided everything.
The first one that they called was the young master who used lightning.
As he walked forward, it was like he was heading to an execution with the look on his face. Even when he was right in front of the box to draw a lot, he looked like he would rather stick his hand in a box filled with needles than this box.
But he had no choice in this matter and he pulled one of the balls out of the box.
When he saw the number that was on the ball, he couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief.
Four, it was a four.
That put him on the exact opposite side of the bracket from Bi Qing.
This was the furthest that he could get from her, even though it still meant that he would have to face her tomorrow in the finals. However just this perceived distance was enough to give him a sense of security.
The other two young missus couldn’t help revealing ugly expressions when they saw this.
The next one to draw was the one that controlled flower petals.
She acted the same way as the young master as she came over to draw the lot, but she…also was relieved when she saw the number on her ball.
Three, it was a three.
This meant that she wouldn’t have to fight Bi Qing!
Of course, that meant that for the young miss who used the zither…it meant that she was fighting Bi Qing in the end.
When she realized this, she had a very ugly expression like she was about to be executed.
But still, she gave a sigh and focused her mind.
There was no use in regretting it, she could only focus her mind so that she would have the greatest chances against Bi Qing.
As for drawing the last ball, there was no need.
The organizers also recognized this, so they quickly set up the arena for the first fight.
When the two of them were on the stage, neither of them said a thing.
But of course, they had completely different expressions on their faces.
Bi Qing had a calm look on her face like she wasn’t worried about a thing, but the young miss with the zither looked like she was about to face death.
The referee knew that there was no need for introductions and with how hyped the crowd was, it would be bad to stall any longer…so without hesitation, he started the fight.
As soon as the fight started, the young miss with the zither already started playing.
The sounds of her zither rang out all around, ringing out even louder than it had done yesterday.
At the same time, if one listened carefully, they would be able to hear that there were two different songs mixed into one. There was one song that was the same as yesterday, a song that was designed to make the enemy fall asleep.
The other one…was a powerful song that seemed like it was charging up an attack.
But before either of the songs could take effect, Bi Qing disappeared.
