Mu Mengyi had just entered the Danmai and voluntarily requested to defend the arena. This was not an intentional show-off.
She was unsure if she had any gap compared to the strong practitioners of other lineages, but she was self-confident, believing she was not weaker than anyone, of course, except for Tan Yun!
Upon hearing this, Shen Subing thought of Mu Mengyi's identity and did not immediately agree, but instead looked towards Tan Yun.
Tan Yun noticed Shen Subing's inquiring gaze and turned to Mu Mengyi, lowering his voice, hinting, "To what level have you cultivated?"
"First volume, great completion realm," Mu Mengyi replied softly.
Tan Yun felt a sense of relief. He knew that the nirvana scripture he had given her was divided into thirty-six volumes.
Each volume was divided into four stages: early, small completion, great completion, and peak. The first volume was the technique suitable for her to cultivate in the fetal soul realm.
Although she had not yet reached the peak stage of the first volume, Tan Yun was confident that just by reaching the great completion realm of the first volume, she would have few rivals among the fetal soul realm cultivators!
Even if she faced Nangong Yuqin, she would not be much weaker!
If she could cultivate the first volume to the peak and complete her first nirvana, her strength to challenge others would be terrifying!
Thinking about this, Tan Yun raised his gaze towards Shen Subing, clasped his fists respectfully, and said, "Chief, I believe Mengyi can do it."
"Good, since you say so, then I, as the chief, will agree," Shen Subing said, then looked down at Mu Mengyi and smiled, "Be careful; even if you fail to defend the arena, it doesn't matter. We only need Tan Yun to compete for the top eight on the Crouching Dragon Rankings."
"Mm." Mu Mengyi nodded slightly, then exchanged a glance with Tan Yun. The two, in their flowing robes, leaped onto Crouching Dragon Platform No. 1 and No. 2.
Suddenly, Tan Yun and Mu Mengyi felt a wave of murderous intent enveloping them!
They looked at each other from a distance.
Tan Yun's lips moved silently, and Mu Mengyi could see from his lip movements that he mouthed the words, "Many enemies, kill without mercy!"
Mu Mengyi understood and nodded slightly. She knew she had become the public enemy of the Beast Spirit Lineage, with countless disciples wanting to kill her.
The man she loved had many enemies in the Inner Sect. From Tan Yun's words, she understood that any disciple who bore a grudge against him would surely use the guise of challenging her to try to kill her!
At that moment, before Shen Subing announced the start of Tan Yun and Mu Mengyi's defending the arena, she sensed the air thick with countless murderous intents!
She naturally understood that this murderous intent was aimed at the unwedded couple, Tan Yun and Mu Mengyi!
She wasn't worried about Tan Yun; in her heart, he was invincible among the Inner Sect disciples of the Huangfu Sacred Sect. Her only concern was for Mu Mengyi, as she had never heard how strong Mu Mengyi was in the Beast Spirit Lineage!
"Hehehe, it seems there are indeed many who want to kill this sovereign's future son-in-law!" Dantai Xuanzhong thought to himself, calmly amused.
He also did not worry about Tan Yun, as he believed that Tan Yun could severely injure the young master of the Eternal Immortal Sect, Ru Yan Chen, and had nearly killed the saintess of the divine soul celestial palace, Nangong Yuqin. With Tan Yun's strength, he could sweep away the strong practitioners of his own sect!
At that moment, in the seats below Jade Tower, Murong Shishi, Qiankun Daoist, and Talisman Practitioner couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.
The three had participated in the grand competition of the four techniques and had naturally witnessed Tan Yun's power. Initially, the sovereign had ordered them not to disclose anything about what happened in the competition, and they wouldn't defy that order.
However, the three had summoned the top three hundred disciples in strength from the weapons, formations, and talismans lineages last night, informing them that Tan Yun was very strong, and if anyone encountered him, they should concede quickly!
