Chapter 321: Battle of Attrition
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yu Qiao’s disciple began to fight with Duan Chaomian’s disciple.
This time, Yu Qiao’s side obviously held the advantage.
But even so, Duan Chaomian’s disciple did not feel impatient although he was temporarily suppressed.
Instead, he was calm as he responded to his opponent’s moves.
‘The disciples recruited by Duan Chaomian are indeed powerful…’
Xu Ning also looked at the two fighting.?‘Although there is a difference in strength, his combat experience, mental state, and combat wisdom are one level ahead… It is hard to say who will win this battle…’
Xu Ning had a high opinion of Duan Chaofang’s disciple.
Sure enough, not long after, Yu Qiao’s disciple began to be a little impatient.
He clearly had the upper hand and held a considerable advantage, but he was unable to turn this advantage into a victory.
In addition, he was on the verge of being eliminated, so his movements and mental state were a little distorted.
‘The situation might reverse…’
Xu Ning had already predicted the outcome of the fight.
“Ha!”
At this moment, Yu Qiao’s disciple suddenly attacked. This was similar to Ling Jie’s unexpected attack.
However, this disciple did not obtain the same advantage as Ling Jie.
After he attacked, he was easily dealt with by Duan Chaofang’s disciple. Obviously, Duan Chaofang’s disciple had expected that his opponent would lose his mental state and launch a desperate attack.
All of this was calculated.
‘Not good!’
When Yu Qiao’s disciple failed to land his attack, he realized that he had revealed his weakness.
He quickly wanted to remedy the situation, but Duan Chaofang’s disciple did not give him the opportunity to. Duan Chaofang’s disciple changed from his defensive position to taking the initiative to attack.
Duan Chaofang’s disciple, who was initially attacking like a drizzle, suddenly attacked like a storm.
The change in style caused the opponent to not react in time.
Bang!
Finally, Yu Qiao’s disciple couldn’t hold on anymore. He was hit in the waist by a strand of astral qi, and his body was instantly stained with blood as he was sent flying.
“Duan Chaofang’s side wins!”
It was at this moment that Elder Wei announced the result.
Yu Qiao’s side did not even win a single round.
‘Truly powerful…’
Xu Ning admired Duan Chaofang’s disciple who had just obtained victory.
His mature performance just now was something none of his three disciples could achieve.
Other than Fang Youli who could secure the fight with his strength, Bian Huang and Ling Jie were definitely not his opponents.
‘Let’s see what the content of the next round is about…’
Although there were two seeds who had not yet to send their disciples, their disciples were lacking in terms of realm. Even the winner would not be able to defeat the disciples of Xu Ning and Duan Chaomian.
‘I didn’t even win one round…’
Yu Qiao’s face was full of unwillingness.
But since it had come to this, she had no choice but to accept it.
The competition between her and Duan Chaomian ended in her defeat.
‘I hope Xu Ning’s disciples can create a miracle…’
Yu Qiao sighed in her heart, although she felt that the probability of this happening was not high.
Because up until now, Pei Bing, Duan Chaomian’s strongest disciple, had not been revealed.
Afterwards, under Elder Wei’s guidance, the other two seed disciples began to fight.
Soon, the winner was decided.
Among the two of them, the seed that had two dao realm third stages and one dao realm second stage won.
With that, the first round of the assessment was over.
The victors all had disciples with the higher overall realm, so there was no situation where the weak had defeated the strong.
In that way, it seemed that Duan Chaomian’s side held the strongest advantage.
“It seems that Duan Chaomian has a high chance of winning…”
Duan Huiyao transmitted his voice to Duan Huiye with a slightly dissatisfied tone.
“Not necessarily…”
Duan Huiye responded, “The disciple next to Xu Ning is no ordinary character…”
“Mmm…”
Duan Huiyao nodded silently.
They all noticed a strange energy in Fang Youli’s body.
Even the two of them felt unfamiliar with this strange energy.
“The second round of the test will be a battle of attrition between two disciples!”
Elder Wei stood up again and explained the rules.
“This time, the three of you will draw lots to compete in order. After one person is eliminated, the next person will be selected according to the order of the drawn lots. If one person on one side successfully defends the arena and meets the opponent of the same group, they will automatically skip this fight and be replaced by the next person in the order.”
Soon, Elder Wei explained the rules.
‘Battle of attrition…’
Xu Ning, Duan Chaomian, and the other female seed, Lu Weiwen, pondered at the same time.
They all knew very well that according to this rule, the person in third place would be more advantageous.
However, this advantage was not that great.
“Let’s draw lots!”
Elder Wei took out three bamboo sticks.
Xu Ning and the other two selected one stick each.
‘Three?’
After Xu Ning took out the bamboo stick, he saw his number at the bottom of the bamboo stick.
‘Three? I’m actually the last one…’
Xu Ning gave a soft smile. This was a considerable advantage.
In theory, the further back one was, the greater their advantage.
“I am the first in line.”
Duan Chaomian was expressionless, as if the order did not affect him at all.
“I’m second.”
Lu Weiwen said.
“I’m third.”
Xu Ning also showed his bamboo stick.
“Okay.”
Elder Wei nodded. “In this case, after resting for a moment, Duan Chaomian and Lu Weiwen will send their disciples up first.”
“Yes.”
The three of them responded before retreating.
“Master, who are you going to send first?”
Xu Ning returned to the three of them and Fang Youli asked.
“Ling Jie will be first, Bian Huang will be second, and you will be the last.”
Xu Ning quickly gave an answer without much thought.
The strongest was naturally the last in a battle of attrition.
Xu Ning’s answer completely matched their expectations.
Ling Jie and Bian Huang also knew that the two of them could not last until the end. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
Only Fang Youli was strong enough to fight against Pei Bing.
“Just do your best like how you have done. I won’t blame you if you fail.”
Xu Ning assured them once more.
“Understood, Master.”
After calming their hearts, they could relax more and do their best.
“Okay, Duan Chaofang, Lu Weiwen, send up your disciples!”
The break was over and Elder Wei said to the two sides.
Afterwards, both sides sent their disciples.
The final round of the assessment had officially begun.
