The Good-for-Nothing's Counterattack: Full-time Spiritual Master

The next day

The competition among the four major academies is about to begin, attracting the attention of countless practitioners.

The competition was held in a vast trial field, surrounded by rich spiritual energy.

Gu Li and others sat in their seats at Lingtian College, looking around with interest.

There were audience seats all around. In addition to people from the four major colleges, there were also many people who came to watch, and the seats were almost full.

There are three competition platforms on the trial field below, and it looks like three competitions are being held at the same time.

At the top position, there are four referees sitting.

Seeing Gu Li looking over there, Elder Xi said, "Those are the presidents of the various colleges. The one on the far right in the middle is the president of our college."

Soon a host stepped into the air and walked onto the stage to make the announcement.

"The order of the competition is: actual combat, formation, runes, weapon refining, beast taming, and alchemy."

"The preliminary round of the four-college competition has begun. The top thirty will enter the semi-finals, and the top ten will enter the finals to compete for the top three."

"Platform No. 1: Qin Susu from Lingxi College vs. Feng Xianghao from Leiqing College."

"Ring No. 2, Long Yifei from Lingtian College vs. Ye Fan from Leiqing College."

"Ring No. 3, Xingchen College's Lin Fan vs. Lingxi College's Chu Heng."

"No one may be killed during the competition. Please come on stage."

Gu Li and others watched the competition on the stage intently.

At this time, Qin Susu and Feng Xianghao on stage No. 1 have already entered the stage.

Qin Susu was wearing a light blue dress, her long hair fluttering in the wind, and her eyes revealed determination and confidence.

Feng Xianghao was dressed in black, had a tall stature and a stern face.

After the two men clasped their fists and saluted each other, the competition officially began.

Qin Susu took the first step and swung the sword in her hand. A sharp sword energy attacked Feng Xianghao.

Feng Xianghao was not in a hurry. He just dodged the attack easily by moving to the side.

Then, he quickly counterattacked, shook the spear in his hand, and the tip of the spear stabbed towards Qin Susu like lightning.

Qin Susu quickly swung her sword to block, and the sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the trial field.

Long Yifei and Ye Fan on stage No. 2 also had a fierce showdown.

Long Yifei was wearing a white robe and had an elegant temperament. He gently waved the folding fan in his hand, and a powerful airflow gushed out.

Ye Fan was wearing black armor and holding a big sword, looking very majestic.

Lin Fan and Chu Heng on stage No. 3 were also fighting hard.

Lin Fan was wearing a grey robe, had a stern face, and held a long sword in his hand.

Chu Heng was dressed in a blue suit, with sharp eyes and a spear in his hand.

Lin Fan’s swordsmanship was sharp, and every move was filled with murderous intent.

Chu Heng's spear skills were equally impressive, his spear shot out like a dragon, with great momentum.

The two fought fiercely on the ring for a long time, but there was still no winner.

Su Yiyun looked at the people fighting on the ring and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that the people who came to participate in the four-college competition had such high cultivation levels."

All six of them are at the peak of the imperial level. If they hadn’t met Canglan, they wouldn’t even be qualified to participate in the competition.

Lin Yuchen teased: "Why, you are not afraid anymore?"

Su Yiyun immediately retorted: "How is that possible? I must be in the top ten!"

Hearing his arrogant words, Yan Yu and other contestants from Lingtian Academy looked at him with disdain.

It's not easy for this ignorant boy to be in the top ten.

Qin Susu on ring No. 1 finally defeated Feng Xianghao with her superb swordsmanship.

Long Yifei on ring No. 2 also defeated Ye Fan with clever tactics.

Lin Fan on stage No. 3 also defeated Chu Heng and entered the semi-finals.

"Qin Susu from Lingxi College, Lin Fan from Xingchen College, and Long Yifei from Lingtian College advanced to the semi-finals."

After the first round of competition.

Everyone in the audience was discussing the competition that had just taken place, and they were full of praise for the contestants' performances.

"Qin Susu's swordsmanship is so powerful, so light and agile, making it hard to defend against." One person exclaimed.

"Long Yifei is also good. His folding fan attack is very unique." said a student nearby.

"Lin Fan and Chu Heng are also very strong, and their battle is really exciting." Another student echoed.

"Well done!" Dean Xiao praised Long Yifei with a pleased look on his face.

Long Yifei bowed slightly and responded respectfully: "Thank you, Dean Xiao!"

At this time, the host's voice sounded again: "Gu Li from Lingtian College vs. Xiao Yuhang from Leiqing College."

"Mu Qing from Lingxi College vs. An Miao from Xingchen College."

"Yan He from Leiqing College vs. Feng Wuhen from Lingtian College."

"Please invite the players to come on stage."

When Lin Yuchen heard Gu Li's name, he instantly became excited and shouted loudly: "Come on, A Li, beat them!"

Mu Yunxi also smiled and said, "Don't let the two of you get eliminated in the first round."

Gu Li smiled confidently and responded: "No!"

Then she walked onto the ring lightly.

When Xiao Yuhang saw that the person who came up to fight him was actually a little girl of fifteen or sixteen, his words were full of ridicule: "Little brat? Has Lingtian Academy fallen on hard times? Send a kid up here."

The contestants were basically all young men in their twenties. In their eyes, the fifteen or sixteen-year-old Gu Li was indeed as immature as a child.

"Hahahaha, Senior Brother Xiao, you better be gentle. If she starts crying, it will be hard to comfort her."

When the people from Leiqing College heard his words, they all started to make a fuss and laughed unrestrainedly.

The people from Lingtian College were so angry at their words that their faces turned red, but they didn't know how to refute. They felt even more resentful towards Gu Li and the others.

Gu Li just smiled as he listened to their ridicule, with a hint of disdain in his words: "The people from Leiqing College are still as disgusting as ever."

The peak of the imperial rank! How boring.

"Hmph, then don't blame me for being rude." Xiao Yuhang snorted coldly, and the spiritual power in his body surged like surging waves.

His eyes were wide open and he rushed towards Gu Li.

Gu Li looked at Xiao Yuhang who was rushing towards him, his face full of disdain, as if he was looking at a clown.

She just leaned slightly sideways, then quickly threw a punch, hitting Xiao Yuhang hard in the stomach.

Xiao Yuhang had no time to react at all, and he flew out like a kite with a broken string.

It drew a long arc in the air, and then fell heavily on Feng Wuhen's stage.

Suddenly, the entire competition arena fell silent. Everyone stared with wide eyes, looking at the fluctuations of Gu Li's spiritual power in disbelief.

"Damn, this little girl is in the middle stage of the Emperor level!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed.

"My stomach aches just looking at this." Another person rubbed his stomach, as if he felt the same way.

"No wonder Lingtian Academy sent a teenage student here. It turns out he's so strong!" Everyone started talking and were shocked at Gu Li's strength.

Feng Wuhen looked at Xiao Yuhang who had fainted on the ground, thought for a moment, and then kicked his opponent without hesitation.

His opponent, like Xiao Yuhang, flew down to Gu Li's ring.
