When the two palms collided, a terrifying aura spread all around.

Ye Qingxuan’s body was instantly sent flying backward, while Yu Yueru merely took a few steps back.

After stabilizing herself, Ye Qingxuan’s breath was somewhat rapid, clearly, that last strike had taken a toll.

"Huh?"

Lu Xuan, who was seated on the high platform, had been constantly observing the match.

Lu Xuan sensed something peculiar, and cast a curious glance at Yu Yueru.

Yu Yueru’s talent truly made his eyes light up.

Others might not see it, but Lu Xuan certainly sensed Yu Yueru’s martial arts realm clearly.

The Bone Marrow Refining Realm!

Interesting!

Unexpectedly, among the martial artists below the Human-level Profound Bird Guard, there is one at the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

"Envoy Lu, what’s the matter?"

He Yan, who was beside him, heard Lu Xuan speak and hurriedly asked without even watching the duel on the stage.

"Nothing."

Yu Yueru retained her lazy and composed demeanor, her almond eyes looking towards the distance.

There, Ye Qingxuan was visibly shocked, staring at Yu Yueru in disbelief.

"Xiaoqingxuan, if this is your only strength, then I, your elder sister, will bring this fight to an end."

Yu Yueru had just spoken when Ye Qingxuan didn’t pause and continued rushing towards her.

"Vast Palm!"

This time, Ye Qingxuan’s palms were inadvertently wrapped with an invisible and mysterious current.

The seemingly real yet illusory current possessed astounding power!

When Yu Yueru’s eyes met the transformation in Ye Qingxuan’s palms, her beautiful face became extremely solemn, not daring to conceal her strength further.

Unable to evade, Yu Yueru unleashed the power of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, and her hands once again directly bore Ye Qingxuan’s attack.

"Bang!"

The two forces collided fiercely in midair, generating a visible ripple of air waves, erupting with a deep booming sound.

"Impossible!"

Yu Yueru gazed incredulously at Ye Qingxuan, her body struck heavily, suddenly sent flying backwards.

However, Yu Yueru merely retreated dozens of steps before steadying herself.

After calming her rapid breaths, Yu Yueru looked at Ye Qingxuan with amazement.

"Xiaoqingxuan, truly interesting, what kind of power is this!"

This power is definitely not one that martial artists in the Bone Refining Realm can wield.

Yu Yueru was startled, and even Lu Xuan and He Yan saw the extraordinary nature of Ye Qingxuan’s power.

This power doesn’t resemble the force of vitality or the energy of the heavens; it seems like a mysterious power nurtured from within the martial artist’s body.

Lu Xuan perceived the current as though it were an unreal existence.

Appears to be the palm technique taught to Ye Qingxuan by her father.

What an interesting Great Xia Academy, unexpectedly possessing such methods.

Though Ye Qingxuan repelled Yu Yueru, she used up that palm technique, rapidly depleting her body’s strength.

"You are a martial artist of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm?"

Ye Qingxuan, with a reluctant gaze, stared fixedly at Yu Yueru.

This woman turned out to be a martial artist of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

No wonder she could so effortlessly withstand that palm of hers.

This palm technique was imparted by her father at the Great Xia Academy, it was her treasured trump card.

Thinking of her mission, Ye Qingxuan bit her lips lightly and once more charged at Yu Yueru.

Even if faced with a martial artist of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, she would never give up.

Facing Ye Qingxuan’s full force strike, Yu Yueru didn’t dare take it lightly, summoning her own martial arts cultivation technique.

"Wind-Breaking Fist!"

Seeing this, Lu Xuan casually flipped his hand, releasing a transparent, invisible swirl of energy towards the martial stage.

Ye Qingxuan and Yu Yueru’s palms suddenly struck the transparent swirl of energy blocking their front.

Their terrifying palm strike, when clashing with this invisible force, seemed as weak and powerless as children, not even stirring a ripple.

This unexpected scene made everyone astonished, turning their attention towards the figure on the high platform.

Has Envoy Lu intervened?

"Envoy Lu, you?"

He Yan looked at Lu Xuan with some confusion, not understanding his intent. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Yu Yueru, wins!"

Lu Xuan spoke calmly without much explanation.

Although Lu Xuan’s voice was quiet, it eerily reached everyone’s ears.

The power exhibited by the two just now had reached the full-strength strike of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

Especially Yu Yueru, her punch reached the prowess of a small-achievement martial artist in the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

If the two collided, they’d surely be gravely injured, if not dead, resulting in mutual destruction!

And with Yu Yueru at the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, she undoubtedly would remain standing at the end.

Ye Qingxuan was certain to lose!

Therefore, Lu Xuan outright halted their battle, personally deciding the victor.

Upon hearing this, Yu Yueru’s charming face blossomed into a smile, her aura gathering back into her body.

To have Envoy Lu personally determine her victory, it’s no small matter.

"Xiaoqingxuan, it seems elder sister won, elder sister has decided, tonight we must have a nice chat, Xiaoqingxuan!"

Ye Qingxuan bit her lips lightly, her fists clenched tightly, looking somewhat angry.

Since knowing this woman was a martial artist of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, Ye Qingxuan knew her chances of winning were lost.

Yet, she felt uncharacteristically unsatisfied.

Missing this opportunity meant her hopes of breaking through to the Inner Qi Realm in her lifetime become remote.

Nonetheless, there was nothing she could do, Ye Qingxuan left the martial stage with feelings of disappointment.

He Yan felt a twinge of pleasure seeing Yu Yueru win.

Excellent!

This little girl, Yu Yueru, really didn’t let Yu down.

Not expecting Yu Yueru to break through to the Bone Marrow Refining Realm at such a young age.

In the following years, with Yu Yueru’s status as a top prospective candidate nurtured by the Profound Bird Guard,

She might quickly break through to the Blood Refining Realm, becoming the Yellow-level Profound Bird Guard Envoy.

As for Ye Qingxuan, He Yan wasn’t worried at all.

Because, the family’s Envoy Lu had long prepared an opportunity for her.

In this way, Ye Qingxuan, this promising talent for martial arts cultivation, could receive focused nurturing.

With Ye Qingxuan and Yu Yueru’s duel over, the last match concluded quickly.

The moment the martial competition ended, Lu Xuan uttered his final words, then transformed into countless points of light, disappearing from the seat.

"Mr. He, make the announcement!"

With the martial competition concluded, Lu Xuan no longer needed to stay.

"Yes, Envoy Lu!"

"The top three winners, tomorrow morning, proceed to the Profound Bird Guard’s main hall to receive Envoy Lu’s reward."

........

The next day!
