Caspian's character and style of conduct were the sources of Jessica's confidence in him. However, that did not mean Jessica thought Caspian would win the game unscathed due to the most basic problem — The difference in the realm between Caspian and Winston was too big. Although they were of the same level, they were at two extremes. Hence, Jessica was not concerned that Caspian would lose, but she was worried that Caspian would end the fight in an almost tragic way just to win.When Caspian saw Jessica's uneasy gaze, he was moved. Then, he smiled and pulled the girl's hand, saying, "Wait for my return. I'll be back soon."After saying that, Caspian turned around and walked toward the ring. Caspian waited for the battle for a long time. As for the spectating disciples of other sects, only a few people paid attention to Caspian. After all, most people thought it was better to have a good discussion about the beautiful female disciple who could actualize the essence of the world instea
The airflow around them seemed to become heavy and solidified as Caspian raised his head suddenly, and the overpowering pressure emitted from his eyes made Winston's mouth dry. It felt as if Winston faced a ferocious beast, and he felt an instinctive fear from the depths of his heart. At that moment, Winston saw the corners of Caspian's mouth twitch, forming a sneer. Then, in a flash, Winston watched as Caspian rushed toward him at a rapid pace as a loud bang sounded. The speed was so fast, and the strength was so great that it seemed like a thunderstorm, and Winston even felt that his vision suddenly became blurred."Casper strikes!""In the face of an opponent whose realm is higher than his own, Casper chose to take the initiative to attack!""Humph! He's really reckless.""The game's over. I bet he can't even deal an attack to the other party." At almost the same time, many sect disciples in the stands expressed their opinions. Albert, who was in the skybox, shook his hea
Crackle and rattle! The blood lights continued to splatter on Winston. His body also flew toward the outside of the ring amidst the dense explosion. At that moment, the Blue Feather Sect disciples watching from the stand were as pale as a sheet. However, a cyan-colored light suddenly appeared on Winston. In an instant, the light enveloped Winston, and the intense blood light could not reach him any further.Pop! Winston landed on both feet, and the edge of the ring was just a few meters behind him.When the Blue Feather Sect disciples saw the scene, they finally let out a long sigh of relief. Of course, Albert's straight waist could not help but relax a little too. However, even though he was not knocked out of the ring, Winston's appearance was still extremely embarrassing, which made the hearts of the Blue Feather Sect disciples hang high again. At that moment, Winston's hair was scattered and messy, his face was covered in blood, and his robe was torn into pieces. At a
Many people were surprised when Caspian defeated Winston. Besides that, there were also pairs of eagle-like eyes in the crowd, and they kept shining as if they saw the truth."This Heavenly Stars Sect disciple is such a show-off." "This is only the first round, and he already showed all his cards.""Although he surely has a certain level of strength, he doesn't pose any threat since all his abilities are exposed.""This person will only become a cannon fodder in the second round.""Wow! They went all out in the first round. The pain of not being the state religion for so many years must've been a thorn in their flesh."The sect disciples who looked down on Caspian all had a similar view — They believed that Caspian showed all of his abilities in the match with Winston just now. In that way, although he won the game and helped Heavenly Stars Sect enter the next round, he also wholly exposed his strength. In addition, because his realm was not outstanding, as long as his opponent
"Robert?" Jessica frowned slightly, and she asked in an unkind tone, "Why is he asking me to go back? Since when is he allowed to manage me here and there?"Jessica was sure that Robert was the one spreading rumors to taint Caspian's reputation before, so her impression of the senior of hers worsened.The disciple smiled awkwardly and answered, "Jessica, Robert said that it's our sect's turn next, and it's not good for you to stay here all the time. After all, if you enter the second round, the Heavenly Stars Sect will be your opponent. Hence, Robert's implying that it's not good for you and Elder Chloe if you keep spending time at our opponent's side." The Elder Chloe the disciple mentioned was naturally Jessica's master. Jessica's eyes narrowed suddenly, and she asked, "Robert's using my Master's name to threaten me?"As Robert acted out of his boundaries, Jessica's tone was unpleasant when she said Robert's name. Although Jessica's realm was only an entry-level second-stag
Caspian naturally had his reasons for saying that. In truth, the other sects' disciples thought so too. In the competition with the Blue Feather Sect, almost every disciple of the Heavenly Stars Sect had a very narrow victory, and they exposed their trump cards and means early. The situation was highly unfavorable for any sect interested in going further in the game.However, if they gave it a thought, the strength of a few people in the Heavenly Stars Sect was not fully exposed. For example, Xander, Jaime, Maya, and Caspian. A total of nine people participated in the competition, and the four of them already accounted for almost half of the places. Nonetheless, the few victories in the Heavenly Stars Sect were too impressive, so the four of them were automatically ignored by the disciples of other sects.Naturally, Caspian was delighted with the situation.Nevertheless, Jessica did not fall for Caspian's trick, and she rolled her eyes at him. Then, she chuckled. "I'm not sure about
The sky was out of reach, and the green bamboo forest was like an endless sea. In an instant, Lucy felt as if she was alone in the world. The intense feelings of emptiness, loneliness, and fear surged in her small heart instantly."Lady Jessica… Lady Jessica…" Lucy sobbed, looked in a random direction, and rushed forward with brisk steps. However, the surrounding sea of bamboos appeared the same from any angle. Lucy did not know how long she walked, but the forest seemed to have no end. Even when she was out of breath, there was still no exit sign. There was fear in Lucy's eyes, and she pursed her lips, about to burst into tears again. "Where am I... Lady Jessica, idiot Casper, where have you all gone... I—I want to go home..." Little Lucy, who now appeared like a fifteen-year-old girl, desperately wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Finally, after weeping a few times, she squatted on the ground, hugging her knees and crying.At that time, behind a few green bamboos n
"Jessica thinks you're too slow, so she won't wait for you," Caspian said lightly.Lucy was stunned for a moment, then became furious. "I don't believe it! Idiot Casper, you must've deceived her and hid her somewhere!"Caspian still said the same, "You’re too slow, and she can't wait for you. So she'll go first.""That's impossible! Lady Jessica will never leave me!" Lucy's face flushed instantly, and she shouted, "I get it now! You fooled her away! What's your intention!""I don't have any intention, and I just want to see if you can get out of this Floating Growth Formation. However, you're rather a disappointment." Caspian shook his head."What? Formation?" Lucy blinked, and the anger in her eyes quickly condensed. "Casper, I didn't expect you to be such a person! Why did you use the formation to deal with me?! Do you have any ill intentions against me?""You're overthinking," Caspian shook his head, “the Floating Growth Formation can only trap cultivators below the first-stag
