Chapter 115

He really didn't have time to accompany Xiao to fight; he still wanted to graze well and raise more demon beasts to eat to improve his strength.

However, they were Shushan disciples after all, and he and so many other gods were captured just to be sparring partners.

Simply, the god also learned from Xiao's appearance, raised his huge, strange arm, and bowed.

"You are welcome. If you meet Lord Jiang Yan, please say hello for me. Thank you, Lord Jiang Yan, for giving me a stable life."

Xiao nodded slightly, transformed into a stream of light on his sword, and flew away.

The god looked at it with envy, turned his head, and diligently became a shepherd again.

On Dragon Head Peak, Zhongli looked up toward the direction of Tongtian Peak and said sternly:

"We obey the Sect Master's decree!"

With that, he turned to look at Venti and the others, his eyes flickering.

"Did that Sect Master speak?"

Venti asked curiously.

Zhongli nodded slightly.

"The Sect Master already knows that I want to fight you and has notified all the disciples to come and observe the ceremony."

"However, since this matter is now known to all of Shushan, and you are here to learn about the situation of cultivation and even join Shushan."

"Why not expand the scale of this battle a little?"

Venti's eyes lit up, and the anxiety in his heart was swept away.

"What do you mean?"

Zhongli looked around at the three of them and said softly:

"Your strength is not much different from Alice's; you are both top powerhouses among the gods. Why not fight me together?"

"As for Miss Lisa, I see that your strength is also at the early stage of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation. If you count the hidden power in your body, it is probably comparable to some demon beast kin at the middle stage of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation."

"Are you willing to participate in the battle?"

Lisa gave a bitter smile and said helplessly:

"Sure enough, I couldn't hide it from Mr. Zhongli, but my body has some problems, and I'm afraid that fighting with full strength will..."

"It's nothing more than the problem of burning lifespan. This matter is easy to handle."

As he spoke, Zhongli flicked a burst of true essence into Lisa's body.

"My true essence can protect you so that you may use your power without burning your lifespan. With this, are you willing to join the battle?"

Lisa felt the fatigue that appeared from time to time in her body disappear, and her eyes were suddenly filled with surprise.

Even Zhongli, who had just started cultivating, could do this.

Then that Shushan Sect Master...

But Lisa also knew that as a Sect Master, he wouldn't make a move for no reason.

If she wanted to cure the problem in her body, she would eventually have to consider cultivating herself.

Right now, it was a good opportunity to see the methods of a cultivator.

Thinking of this, Lisa didn't hesitate and nodded decisively:

"Okay."

"That's great."

Zhongli nodded slightly, his voice reinforced by true essence, shaking the surroundings.

"In the name of the acting Peak Master of Dragon Head Peak, the Dragon Head Peak arena will open the first battle of Shushan."

"All disciples, come quickly."

As soon as the voice fell, several streams of light flashed away from the foot of the mountain, and streams of light also rushed from the horizon.

Ningguang and others were flowing with immortal intent and landed on the ground gracefully.

"Greetings, Peak Master."

Everyone bowed slightly, Zhongli nodded, and looked at the last stream of light on the horizon.

Suddenly, Xiao returned, wrapped in thick evil spirit and fighting intent.

He immediately bowed:

"Peak Master."

Zhongli glanced at Xiao's still boiling true essence, which seemed to have been somewhat exhausted.

It seemed that this battle was indeed not easy.

He said softly:

"Xiao, you should rest for a while and restore your true essence."

"Yes! Peak Master!"

With that, Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate his Qi.

Endless spiritual energy gathered into a vortex above his head, which surprised Venti.

Xiao...

seemed to have become much stronger too.

Is cultivation really that outrageous?

Lisa looked at Ningguang and Keqing. She hadn't seen Ningguang, but she had seen Keqing a few times.

Keqing often led teams to Mondstadt on business, but when she saw Keqing at that time, although her strength was strong, she didn't have such sharp sword intent as she did now.

Thinking that Keqing hadn't really been cultivating for long, had she really become so strong in such a short time?

Lisa suddenly had more expectations for cultivation.

Zhongli looked around. There were only a dozen or so Shushan disciples, so it was easy to confirm.

They had all come over by now.

Simply, Zhongli said softly:

"After cultivating, the disciples have not yet experienced a real battle. Now, my old friends Barbatos and Alice have brought a team to visit Shushan."

"I have consulted them, and they are also willing to fight in person to experience the fighting style of cultivators."

"I hope all disciples will actively participate in the battle to prepare for the subsequent exploration of the secret realm."

"In addition... considering that Barbatos and the others have few people, only three will participate in the battle."

"So, Alice and Miss Lisa will not be able to fight many rounds, as for Barbatos..."

Zhongli pondered slightly and said softly:

"I think he won't mind fighting a few more rounds with everyone, am I right? Barbatos."

Zhongli looked at Venti calmly. The latter looked like he wanted to cry, complaining in his heart that Zhongli was petty.

But he still nodded with a mournful face.

"N... no problem."

At this moment, Venti wanted to go back to the past and slap himself for tampering with Zhongli's contract.

75. Ningguang: Playing with lightning in front of my Five-Thunder Talisman?!

Soon.

The martial arts arena on Dragon Head Peak had been cleared.

Zhongli and the other Shushan people stood on one side, and Venti's trio stood on the other.

After discussion, Lisa and Ningguang were the first to fight.

Lisa was good at magic, and Keqing was good at swordsmanship. Although the two were close in strength, Lisa was definitely not the best opponent for Keqing.

Relatively speaking, Ningguang needed to spar and discuss the Dao with Lisa more.

The two looked at each other and stepped onto the arena.

Zhongli was about to activate the array to reinforce it, when Jiang Yan's figure appeared silently above the arena.

Seeing this, Zhongli and the others hurriedly stood up and said:

"Welcome, Sect Master."

Venti and the others on the side also understood that the person in front of them was the true person in charge of Shushan and the target of this trip.

They also followed suit and greeted him.

Alice couldn't help but look at Jiang Yan carefully again.

His aura was extremely restrained, but if one had to look carefully, one could perceive the pressure that transcended heaven and earth.

She secretly thought that he was worthy of being a cultivator. ===== CHAPTER 116 =====
