Chapter 358

After practicing martial arts, her talent was average, and he was worried about harming Xu Qing.

But not practicing martial arts would sooner or later lead to being a handful of yellow earth. In any case, no arrangement was good, so he could only let Xu Qing choose for herself.

"With you, this big brother, protecting her, Junior Sister Xu will definitely be safe and sound," Sun Tao said.

Others didn't know Xu Yang's terror, but he did.

Added to Xu Yang's cautious character and wisdom, as long as Xu Qing didn't act willfully and recklessly, basically no problems would occur.

After passing a year steadily, once Xu Yang entered the inner sect, who would dare to touch his sister?

"So this is your sister, Junior Brother Xu. Once she also becomes a disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, I must fulfill my duty as a senior brother and take good care of her," Li Qiang said with a full face of smiles, his gaze scanning Xu Qing on the field up and down.

Sun Tao's eyelids jumped. This pig-and-dog-like thing Li Qiang was poking a tiger.

Xu Yang had even slaughtered Xiao Chen, and Li Qiang dared to use Xu Qing to provoke Xu Yang.

Xu Yang's eyes narrowed slightly: "With me, this big brother, there's no need to trouble Senior Brother Li."

Li Qiang smiled: "It's necessary. You called me Senior Brother, after all; how can I not take care of her?"

Xu Yang sentenced Li Qiang to death in his heart; he would absolutely not let Li Qiang return to the Profound Heaven Sect alive.

Gu Haoming also spoke up: "Xu Qing's talent is not bad; she is qualified to enter my Sharp Wind Hall. When I return to the Profound Heaven Sect, I will report it to Hall Master Cao Rong and have him accept Xu Qing into my Sharp Wind Hall. What do you think, Xu Yang?"

He and Xu Yang were already at odds, and added to the fact that Xu Yang had stood by and watched during the last Wanbao Pavilion auction, his resentment toward Xu Yang had reached its peak.

At this moment, catching the opportunity, he also wanted to put some eye drops on Xu Yang.

Xu Yang was expressionless: "Your Sharp Wind Hall—a hall master has already died—is it qualified for my sister to join?"

In his heart, he also sentenced Gu Haoming to death.

Last time, Jiang Fan and Jiang Yan appeared unexpectedly and saved Gu Haoming's life. This time, he didn't believe anyone would appear.

"You..." Gu Haoming was choked until his face turned red.

Yun Feng's death was a huge blow to the Sharp Wind Hall's reputation.

Gu Haoming didn't speak anymore, but his gaze became increasingly cold.

The morning time passed quickly. During the noon break, Xu Yang left his seat to find Xu Qing.

"My little girl is amazing, becoming a Martial Scholar just like that," Xu Yang smiled.

Xu Qing was very excited: "Brother, I remember you only achieved a Grade C-middle result back then. Does this mean I'm better than you?"

The little girl was a bit floating, feeling she was better than Xu Yang.

Not to mention that Xu Yang had hidden his strength back then, just speaking of resources, the two were not on the same level.

Lin Cheng gave her special training every day and provided resources, and the Qiu family and Great Uncle also gave financial help, with various marrow-cleansing medicinal baths and medicinal supplements constantly provided. He had even sent Blood Coagulation Pills from Qingyang City.

The resources spent for the little girl to reach this step were at least several times his.

"Hmm! Better than brother, but you can't be proud; you must be low-key."

People who are often fathers know that at such times, you must never dampen a child's confidence; you must give praise.

"By the way, how is your comprehension of Wind-Thunder Force?"

The little girl waved her delicate fists: "It's almost proficient and can be used in actual combat."

Xu Yang nodded: "It seems your Dragon Ascension is no problem. But don't fight for a ranking. Once you ascend the dragon, don't fight. Only those fools fight to the death with others for a ranking."

"I'll listen to brother!" The little girl nodded.

Time quickly reached the second day, and actual combat trials began. Xu Yang's instruction to her was to admit defeat if she couldn't win, and not to take risks.

If she couldn't ascend the dragon, he would also take the little girl and leave Qingyuan County.

Although he didn't dare to say he had completely stood firm in Qingyang City, buying a house for the little girl to live in Qingyang City was no problem, and he was confident he could solve general problems.

Soon the drawing of lots began. The little girl's luck was not bad. Her opponent in the first round was just a martial artist who had just entered the Major Success of Qi Gathering. After grappling for a dozen moves, she didn't even use Wind-Thunder Force and shook her opponent off the ring, successfully advancing.

"As expected of your sister, Junior Brother Xu. Junior Sister Xu's Mountain-Shaking Bear Fist has deep power, and her strikes are decisive."

Sun Tao, seeing Xu Qing fight, couldn't help but praise. Xu Qing's performance was even better than his back then, carrying a bit of ruthlessness and murderous aura.

Xu Yang also nodded inwardly. Having experienced the killing in the Green Snake Gang, Xu Qing and Qiu Wenjie's martial arts will had been tempered, and their strikes were decisive, without any dragging of feet.

He scanned with his gaze. On another ring, Qiu Wenjie also easily defeated his opponent and successfully advanced to the next round.

There was also Tian Li, who had also been practicing martial arts for nearly two years, and his talent was even better than Qiu Wenjie's; he also successfully advanced.

"This Qiao Yong is so ruthless!" Sun Tao's voice suddenly came to his ear.

Xu Yang looked over and saw an examination candidate with both arms twisted like twists, lying on the ground wailing.

Qiao Yong stood coldly on the ring, looking down at the candidate whose hands he had crippled.

"He demanded this person admit defeat as soon as he got on stage. This person said he wanted to learn a few moves from him, so he crippled the other party's arms," Sun Tao said.

Xu Yang knew Qiao Yong was crippling people to establish prestige, reducing the number of exchanges to prepare for the charge into the top three.

In their session, there were also quite a few such people. That unlucky guy Yang Jun was used by someone to establish prestige and was crippled.

He had long known Qiao Yong's character—arrogant when successful, even more so than Kong Yu back then.

Back then, Kong Yu was only conceited, but he wasn't as ruthless as him.

Such people in a place like the Profound Heaven Sect easily provoke people they can't afford to provoke and sooner or later won't end well.

Soon the second round of drawing lots took place. This time Xu Qing also successfully advanced to the next round, and Qiu Wenjie and Tian Li also successfully advanced.

In the third round, Xu Qing finally encountered a strong enemy, an expert at the Perfection of Qi Gathering. Xu Qing had no choice but to use Wind-Thunder Force to defeat the opponent.

There were not many candidates in this session who had comprehended dark force; one could count them on one hand. Xu Qing was the only woman who had comprehended Wind-Thunder Force.

Once Wind-Thunder Force was used, it shocked the audience, and Xu Qing once again became the focus of the whole field.

"Old Ghost Lin, you actually trained another disciple who comprehended Wind-Thunder Force. Amazing."

On the high platform, those hall master figures looked at Lin Cheng in surprise.

The Weiyuan Hall had produced another disciple who comprehended Wind-Thunder Force. Once the martial arts examination ended, it was feared they would increase their number of disciples again.

"It's all the disciple's own hard work!" Lin Cheng revealed a self-satisfied expression.

In his heart, he actually understood that this was not his credit at all. He had taught Xu Qing for more than a year, and Xu Qing hadn't comprehended Wind-Thunder Force. Xu Yang came for a few days, and Xu Qing comprehended Wind-Thunder Force. This must have been taught by Xu Yang.

"What realm has this kid reached? How is it so outrageous? In a few days, he let Xu Qing comprehend Wind-Thunder Force."

Lin Cheng looked at Xu Yang not far away with some shock.

It wasn't that he hadn't guided Xu Qing, but after a few times, he discovered Xu Qing couldn't comprehend anything, so he was too lazy to teach her.

"Junior Sister Xu has actually already comprehended Wind-Thunder Force."

Sun Tao was greatly shocked: "Congratulations, Junior Brother Xu. With this talent, Junior Sister Xu might be able to rank among the Ten Elites."

Beside them, Gu Haoming and Li Qiang also revealed shock, not expecting that Xu Yang's sister's talent was actually so good.

Xu Yang smiled: "Senior Brother's praise is too much; she is still far from the Ten Elites."

If he hadn't demonstrated it himself, using his Marrow Cleansing realm to show Xu Qing Wind-Thunder Force, and then giving Xu Qing another year, Xu Qing wouldn't have comprehended Wind-Thunder Force.

And he didn't want Xu Qing to be in the limelight. If it hadn't been for encountering an expert, he wouldn't have allowed Xu Qing to expose Wind-Thunder Force at will.

By evening, the martial arts examination ended. No Demonic Sect people appeared to cause trouble, and several people breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the Profound Heaven Sect must have received unreliable news.

Xu Qing successfully ascended the dragon, and Qiu Wenjie and Tian Li also had good luck, neither encountering too strong an opponent, and also ascended the dragon.

Besides the three, the Weiyuan Hall had two other disciples who ascended the dragon. Although the results were not as good as the previous session, they were also quite good.

The examination ended, and his protection of Qiao Yong also ended.

After agreeing on the time to return with Sun Tao and the others, he took Xu Qing and left.

"To leave without even saying a word, Xu Yang, you treat me with such contempt; you will regret this."

Qiao Yong had originally wanted to have Xu Yang escort him home, so that more people would know that the genius of the previous session, Xu Yang, was merely his bodyguard, and that his, Qiao Yong's, talent was valued even by the Profound Heaven Sect, which had sent someone to protect him to ensure he could safely participate in the Martial Arts Examination, just to show off his prestige once more.

Who would have thought that after the examination ended, Xu Yang would leave without even greeting him.
