Beauty and the Bodyguard

After the peak of the foundation building realm, it was time for the disciples at the peak of the late stage of the foundation building realm to fight each other. The one who received the most attention was naturally Ling Tianyou, who had just lost in a cross-level challenge.

It was true that no one in the same level as him could beat him, but he\'d just used up a lot of Qi on Lin Yi, and his spirit had been damaged. More importantly, Lin Yi had seen through his moves and patterns-it was enough time for him to come up with a plan. With all these disadvantages added together, he wasn\'t a strong enemy that everyone would avoid, but a ready-made soft persimmon instead, making the other peak late Foundation Stage disciples all want to make a move.

If they were able to defeat Ling Tianyou today, it wouldn\'t be as simple as just a victory for them. More importantly, they would be able to make a name for themselves with this battle, gaining both fame and fortune. The benefits they would gain from this were self-evident.

However, reality proved that Ling Tianyou was Ling Tianyou after all. Someone who could become the young master of the thousand blades sect was not someone just anyone could mess with. His loss to Lin Yi only showed how strong Lin Yi was, but it didn\'t mean he was weak.

At the very least, Ling Tianyou was still an invincible existence in front of these experts of the same level as him. So what if his moves were seen through by others? putting aside the fact that his flying thousand blades was not that easy to break, the truth was that he did not even need to use the flying thousand blades against these experts of the same level. He could just casually use a hundred blades and no one would be able to block it.

Just like Lin Yi and Xue Jianfeng, Ling Tianyou also finished the battle in one move. In front of his overwhelming strength, these peak late Foundation Stage disciples could only accept the fate of being one-sided crushed. As for making a name for themselves in one battle, they were thinking too much.

One match after another, from the strongest to the weakest, followed by the late Foundation establishment stage, peak mid Foundation establishment stage, mid Foundation establishment stage, and peak early Foundation establishment stage disciples. Because there was only one judge, and there was a limited space, there could only be one match at a time, so it naturally took a long time. Fortunately, there weren\'t many people, so as long as nothing unexpected happened, the arrangement of one match every two days was very relaxed.

Without Lin Yi, Xue Jianfeng, and Ling Tianyou, the following battles were obviously much more boring. The only exception was the battle of the late Foundation Stage, because there was also a hot topic-Leng Leng.

Back then, she was only in the early stage of Foundation when she first came to the common world. After getting to know Lin Yi, her strength skyrocketed, and she was in the mid stage of Foundation after a short walk. Now, after a few months of hard training in the islands, she was in the late stage of Foundation, only a step away from the peak.

In just ten months, she had advanced from the early Foundation establishment stage to the late Foundation establishment stage. It was not that no one in the ancient martial world could replicate such a miracle, but it was definitely unprecedented. Moreover, Leng Leng was not just a person with levels but no strength. Her icebreaker physique was one in a million. Once her advantage was fully exploited, it would be no small matter.

With Leng Leng\'s strength, it was naturally easy for her to deal with a normal practitioner of the same level. It was just that she hadn\'t found a way to fully unleash the power of her shattered ice physique yet, so the scene wasn\'t as shocking as Lin Yi and the others. The whole process was safe and sound, but there was a little accident at the end-Leng Leng actually broke through on the spot.

Although this kind of thing was rare, it was not impossible. When fighting with others, one\'s essence, Qi, and spirit would be raised to their best state. If one was already at the juncture of a breakthrough, it was not strange for one to take advantage of the situation to break through. It was just that this would give the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of it.

That person had already been beaten by Leng Leng to the point where he could not even fight back. If it was not for Leng Leng\'s mercy, he would have been beaten to the ground long ago. Now that he saw an opportunity to counterattack, he did not care about etiquette, righteousness, or shame at all. He hurriedly wanted to wait for the opportunity to strike. Compared to being scolded for being shameless, it was more practical to reap the victory in his hands.

However, before he could make a move, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine. An inexplicable true Qi had actually entered the back of his head. He was instantly scared silly. Even when Leng Leng successfully broke through to the peak of the late Foundation Stage, he did not dare to move an inch. He muttered suspiciously, his face dazed.

Everyone thought that he was scared by the cold ice-breaking physique, not knowing that Lin Yi was the one behind all this.

Just like that, Leng Leng won the first round without any mishaps. At the same time, she had also crossed the threshold of the peak of the late Foundation establishment stage. From the next round onwards, she would have to compete with the disciples at the peak of the late Foundation establishment stage. If she was lucky, her next opponent might be Ling Tianyou!

Without further ado, by the time all the teams of early Foundation Stage and above had finished, an entire day had already passed. Except for the disciples who were seriously injured and needed to recuperate, the others had been waiting on the side the whole time.

Xin Yijie didn\'t forbid them from moving around freely. As long as it wasn\'t their turn to draw lots, they could go back and rest. However, no one was willing to give up this excellent opportunity to observe other disciples. After all, they might become future opponents. Only by knowing one\'s enemy and one\'s self would one have the upper hand.

Lingshan and the others were observing as well, exchanging their opinions from time to time. They didn\'t have the intention to challenge those of a higher cultivation level, since none of the previous battles were against early Foundation Stage disciples, and none of them would be their next opponents. At first glance, it would seem like a waste of effort, and they might as well rest up like the other early Foundation Stage disciples. However, for them, this day of observation was still very rewarding.

In the past three days, they\'d memorized everything Lin Yi had taught them and practiced the moves he\'d come up with over a hundred times, but it was all theory-they didn\'t know if they\'d be of use.

However, after a day of close observation, they finally had a direct understanding of the styles of the ancient sects, and they were more confident now. They were no longer nervous or nervous, and were even more eager to try it out. They couldn\'t wait to test out Lin Yi\'s countermove!
