It wasn’t just them.
The numerous disciples on the stands of the Western Zhou Cloud Tower, the several Peak Masters on the opposite Cloud Tower, and even Xu Ziyan and others of the Sixth Peak all had expressions of confusion on their faces.
The nomination battle of Asking Sword Qingxuan is actually an opportunity for the disciples of the lower-ranked peaks to have a chance to select a suitable opponent so that they won’t be eliminated in the first round.
So in this competition, most disciples, either don’t choose, or will choose an opponent whose strength is below or equivalent to their own to challenge (except for disciples like Xu Taiping who have personal grudges).
There are very few who, like Lin Buyu, choose the First Peak right from the start, and what’s more, choose the strongest disciple of the First Peak.
In the previous match, Ye Xuan’s performance of suspending six thousand catties of iron was seen by everyone. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the strongest disciple of the First Peak nowadays.
Just as the crowd was discussing, Xu Taiping, who was in a brief daze, suddenly remembered that the bracelet on his wrist seemed to be able to communicate with Lin Buyu’s mind.
So he injected a wisp of true essence into the bracelet. After sensing the existence of the other bracelet, he immediately transmitted a voice and said:
“Buyu, can you hear me?”
Not long after, Lin Buyu’s voice sounded in his mind——
“Yes.”
Xu Taiping was overjoyed.
The Qingxuan Sect has set up a forbidden sound transmission barrier. Whether it is divine sense sound transmission or talisman sound transmission, it won’t work beyond a certain distance.
“Why did you choose to challenge Ye Xuan?”
Xu Taiping looked up at Lin Buyu on the opposite side of the sword platform and asked in his heart at the same time.
At this time, beside Lin Buyu, not only were there many disciples of the Sixth Peak, but even the Peak Master of the Sixth Peak, Meng Qingqiu, had come.
A group of people seemed to be persuading Lin Buyu.
“He came to see me last night.”
Lin Buyu replied.
“Came to see you?”
Xu Taiping felt a little strange.
“He asked me to be his Taoist partner.”
Lin Buyu answered very calmly.
“What?”
Xu Taiping didn’t quite react.
“He asked me to be his Taoist partner.”
Lin Buyu repeated it calmly.
“How did you reply, Buyu?”
After confirming that he didn’t hear wrong, Xu Taiping asked curiously.
“I told him to stop daydreaming.”
Lin Buyu’s tone remained very calm.
“Is this the reason why you specifically challenged him today?”
Xu Taiping asked tentatively.
“Yes. He said last night that only I in the Qingxuan Sect was worthy of him, but he never thought about whether he was worthy of me. So I want to tell him in today’s competition that he is not worthy.”
Lin Buyu replied.
Xu Taiping was speechless for a while after hearing this.
Among the people he knew, the one with the most unpredictable personality was Lin Buyu.
“What do you think?”
At this time, Lin Buyu on the opposite side of the sword field looked at Xu Taiping.
“Me?”
Xu Taiping was stunned when he heard this, and then replied very affirmatively:
“Yes, he really isn’t worthy.”
He really felt that, whether in terms of character or cultivation, that Ye Xuan was not worthy of Lin Buyu.
After hearing this, the corner of Lin Buyu’s mouth on the opposite side of the sword field raised slightly.
“You girl, is Master’s words so funny?”
Meng Qingqiu, who was persuading earnestly beside her, suddenly pulled a long face in displeasure after seeing Lin Buyu’s smile.
“Not funny.”
Lin Buyu put away her smile and shook her head obediently.
“Then why don’t you hurry up and go to Elder Heilong to withdraw the challenge.”
Meng Qingqiu said anxiously.
“Although I don’t like this brat either, but he just expressed his admiration for you. Why do you have to chase after him and hit him like this?”
She then added.
Upon hearing this, Lin Buyu said nothing and directly jumped onto the stage.
Then, she saw her cupping her hands towards Elder Heilong and said:
“Elder Heilong, Lin Buyu, a disciple of the Sixth Peak, challenges Ye Xuan of the First Peak by name.”
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingqiu staggered and almost fell headfirst.
“This dead girl!”
She stomped her foot in anger.
Xu Ziyan smiled bitterly and persuaded:
“Forget it, Master. You know Little Junior Sister’s temper. Once she decides something, no one can stop her. Besides, with Buyu’s current cultivation level, Ye Xuan may not necessarily be able to hurt her.”
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingqiu sighed and then shook her head and said:
“I’m not worried that she will be injured. I just don’t want you to get involved in this muddy water. Regarding this matter, it’s best not to get involved if possible.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Ziyan’s brows furrowed slightly, and then she asked:
“Master, do you really think we can stay out of it?”
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingqiu shook her head and then sighed again and said:
“We can only take it one step at a time.”
And just as the two were talking, Elder Heilong’s voice rang out again:
“The Sixth Peak Lin Buyu challenges the First Peak Ye Xuan. Whether the First Peak Ye Xuan accepts the challenge or not, please respond quickly.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone’s gaze fell on Ye Xuan.
It could be seen that Ye Xuan’s brows were tightly furrowed and his face was extremely ugly. as if he had suffered some great humiliation.
“Junior brother, it’s just a woman. There’s no need to take it to heart. If you expose your cultivation in front of Xu Taiping for her sake, it’s not worth it at all.”
Yan Bing persuaded Ye Xuan.
The implication was that he didn’t want him to accept the challenge.
“Senior brother, don’t worry. Although this Lin Buyu has good talent, she hasn’t reached the point where I need to expose all my cultivation and strength. One or two swords are enough to deal with her.”
Ye Xuan said disapprovingly.
After practicing swordsmanship with Su Chan for seven years, the arrogant aura on him that had originally converged a lot not only returned completely, but also showed a tendency to intensify.
Upon hearing this, Yan Bing shook his head and didn’t persuade anymore.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, took a proud step forward.
With one step, his figure suddenly turned into a sword light. With the harsh sound of the sword humming, he stood on the sword flat in a flash.
“Junior sister Buyu, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you. Why do you have to go to such lengths?”
Ye Xuan looked at Lin Buyu coldly.
“Don’t be self-indulgent.”
Lin Buyu responded faintly, and then looked at Elder Black Dragon beside her.
Elder Black Dragon immediately understood and frowned as he asked Ye Xuan:
“Ye Xuan of the First Peak, are you willing to accept the challenge?”
“Reporting to Elder Black Dragon, this disciple is willing to accept the challenge.”
Ye Xuan cupped his hands towards Elder Black Dragon and then looked at Lin Buyu again and said, “Since it’s a competition, I won’t hold back.”
“Oh.”
Lin Buyu responded faintly, and then placed her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, with strands of electric light flashing between her fingers.
At the same time, an aura fluctuation with the power of thunder spread out on the Sword Terrace like a tide, covering the entire Five Elders Pool.
