Chapter 63: The Empress Challenges a Fifth-Rank Bear Demon

Jubiao Mother had just wanted to let Zhang Yi go to the front to protect Empress Sister a little.

As a result, when she turned her head, she discovered that Zhang Yi had already scurried to the front row, she didn't know when.

Only then did Jubiao Mother heave a sigh of relief.

With Zhang Yi guarding from the side, she felt much more at ease.

On the Arena.

That fifth-rank bear demon was tall, mighty, and its physique was equivalent to the size of three Empress Sisters.

This fellow lowered its head, looked at Nudi, and said in a muffled voice, "Little girl, you have a lot of courage, but your challenge is meaningless to me. I advise you to just admit defeat obediently, so as to avoid suffering physical pain."

Nudi sneered and said, "Cut the crap. If you want to fight, then fight! Where did you get so much nonsense! Today, this Nudi will let you witness what it means to have people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens!"

Before the words had even faded, Empress Sister's figure flashed and she instantly vanished from where she stood.

The bear demon was dumbfounded, "It's starting already?"

According to the competition rules, before the match officially begins.

A Great Demon must personally preside over it, ensuring that both sides are prepared, then count down a few numbers, and finally shout 'start!' Only then does it count as starting.

But now, Empress Sister had actually... started it herself...

Zhang Yi squatted in the front row, watching the bear demon's dumbfounded expression, covering his mouth and stifling his laughter.

And this wasn't even the end of it.

While the bear demon was dumbfounded, its left and right cheeks had already been slapped with two loud smacks.

"Smack!"

Another crisp sound, this time on the right cheek.

Empress Sister's movements were extremely fast; the bear demon's massive body simply couldn't keep up with her speed.

It only felt a burning pain on its face and stars dancing before its eyes, yet it hadn't even touched the hem of Empress Sister's clothes.

Although the fifth-rank bear demon had a massive physique and explosive strength, its agility was very poor, and now it seemed... its reactions were slow too.

It had already been slapped, yet it was still standing there stunned.

However, this blow completely ignited the bear demon's fury.

It roared toward the sky, causing the entire Arena to hum and vibrate.

The small demons watching from the surroundings were shaken until they swayed unsteadily, and some with low cultivation even bled from their seven orifices and fainted.

"Little girl! You are courting death!"

The bear demon roared, and its huge bear paw slammed toward Empress Sister. If this palm were to land solidly, it would likely flatten Empress Sister into a meat patty.

Zhang Yi watched from the front row, his heart jumping with fright.

Jubiao Mother was even more terrified, her face turning pale.

This time, Zhang Yi couldn't help but shout, "If you can't hold on, admit defeat early! We never counted on you to win the cultivation Lingfu!"

This sounded like concern, but if one savored it carefully, it seemed to have an off-putting taste.

After hearing this, Jubiao Mother kicked Zhang Yi, "Stop talking! You're provoking her like this, and she'll be even less likely to admit defeat."

Zhang Yi was speechless; was it wrong for him to be concerned about her...

On the Arena.

Nudi and the bear demon had started their head-on confrontation.

After the feint just now, Nudi had already probed the bear demon's skills and physical strength.

She was now confident she could take down this fifth-rank bear demon.

Zhang Yi knew what she was thinking.

Because Zhang Yi understood his Empress Sister too well; if she didn't have absolute certainty, she would never put herself in danger.

Empress Sister's figure circled the bear demon at high speed.

From time to time, she left a few bloodstains on the bear demon's face and body.

Although the bear demon had immense strength, its speed was far inferior to Empress Sister's, and it could only take a beating passively.

The angry roars shook the Arena time and time again.

"This stubborn girl, she really is ruthless with her attacks..."

Zhang Yi watched Empress Sister's relentless attacks and couldn't help but click his tongue.

Although he knew Empress Sister had a sense of proportion, the bear demon had thick skin and flesh; after taking so many hits, even if it didn't hurt, it would likely be unbearably itchy.

Jubiao Mother, however, had a worried look on her face.

She gripped Zhang Yi's arm tightly, her nails almost embedding into his flesh.

"You be sharp! Once the situation with your sister looks bad, you hurry up and rush in! Do you hear me!"

Zhang Yi sighed speechlessly, gently patted the back of Jubiao Mother's hand, and comforted her, "Mother, don't worry. That girl is cunning as a fox; she wouldn't do anything she wasn't sure about."

Besides, I'm right here, aren't I? If something really happens, I'll definitely be the first to rush up."

Nudi's attacks became faster and faster, and the bear demon's fury grew more and more intense.

Its clumsy body rampaged across the Arena, attempting to grab Empress Sister, but it missed every time.

Instead, it only made itself look more disheveled.

"This silly bear, it has such good stamina?"

Nudi used her agile body to dodge the fifth-rank bear demon's attacks time and time again.

Logically speaking, after fighting for so long, the bear demon should have been exhausted by now, right?

But the current situation was that this bear demon, with such a massive physique, had been fighting a bird on the Arena for so long.

And it wasn't even panting... This was very wrong.

Empress Sister clearly also sensed this point, and the rhythm of her attacks slowed slightly, as if she were observing something.

At this moment, the fifth-rank Great Demon Xiong Batian not far away was actually snickering.

Zhang Yi felt more and more that something was wrong.

"Insight Eye!"

Zhang Yi let out a low shout and activated his special skill.

His eyes instantly turned golden, capable of seeing through all falsehoods and discerning a target's weaknesses and hidden abilities.

As the golden light swept over the bear demon, Zhang Yi immediately discovered the clue.

Inside the bear demon's body, a strange energy was circulating constantly; it was precisely this energy that maintained the bear demon's stamina, allowing it to fight tirelessly.

This guy was actually hiding a skill on purpose!

Zhang Yi cursed inwardly.

The key was, it was only a fifth-rank Demon Beast, so how could it have escaped his divine soul's probing?

Could it be that he had been careless?

Just a moment ago, to ensure Empress Sister's safety, Zhang Yi had already secretly probed the bear demon's background with his divine soul.

Although this sister usually acted quite annoying, Zhang Yi could not truly just leave her to her own devices.

The results of the probe showed that the bear demon's strength was indeed at the fifth rank, with nothing abnormal.

Only then did he feel at ease to watch the battle from below.

As a result, who would have thought that this bear demon could actually hide its skills!

"Mother, the situation is a bit wrong."

Zhang Yi said to Mother Jubiao with a grave expression.

Mother Jubiao was already extremely nervous, and upon hearing this, she shuddered in fright, "How is it wrong? Is your sister about to lose? Hurry up and go up there!"

As she spoke, she tried to push Zhang Yi toward the Arena.

Zhang Yi grabbed Mother Jubiao, "Mother, please don't be agitated, my sister hasn't lost yet, it's just that this bear demon..."

He paused, lowered his voice, and said, "It seems to have hidden its strength."

"Hidden its strength?"

Mother Jubiao looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Zhang Yi explained, "I just probed it with my divine soul; there is a peculiar energy inside its body that is constantly maintaining its stamina, allowing it to fight tirelessly."
