Tan Yun looked at Mu Mengyi, who was filled with concern, and nodded solemnly.
"I understand, Mengyi. I'll be careful," he replied, his voice steady.
Mu Mengyi sighed, "Just remember, her strength is not something to be underestimated. The demonic aura she carries could pose a significant threat to you."
Tan Yun could see the worry etched on her face. He appreciated her concern and knew that the battle ahead would be challenging.
"I'll keep my guard up. If I encounter any danger, I'll retreat," he assured her.
As they spoke, the atmosphere around them grew tense, the anticipation of the upcoming confrontation weighing heavily in the air.
Mu Mengyi glanced at the arena where Luo Ruoshui was preparing for her next match, her eyes narrowing in determination. "You have to be prepared for anything. I believe in your abilities, but do not let your guard down."
With a heavy heart, Tan Yun turned his gaze back to the arena. He felt a surge of determination rise within him. No matter the challenge, he would face it head-on.
The fight against Luo Ruoshui would not only test his strength but also his resolve and ingenuity. He would prove himself, not just to her, but to everyone watching.
Taking a deep breath, Tan Yun steeled himself for the battle that awaited him. He would show the world the true power of the primordial chaos god-slaying sword technique.
Then, Zhong Wu Shiyao and Mu Mengyi anxiously reminded Tan Yun to pay attention to his safety.
At that moment, Luo Ruoshui in a blue dress appeared in front of Tan Yun and the others, a strange smile flickering across her stunning face, "Mengyi, Shiyao, if you have anything to say to say goodbye to Tan Yun, hurry up."
"Otherwise, once Tan Yun steps onto the high platform, you won’t have another chance to say goodbye."
Zhong Wu Shiyao shot a furious look at Luo Ruoshui, "Get lost! I don't want to see you!"
This was the first time Zhong Wu Shiyao had used such harsh words, showing her inner fury at this moment!
Luo Ruoshui stared at Zhong Wu Shiyao, speaking each word slowly, "Today you dare to scold me, one day, I will take your life to repay this!"
Zhong Wu Shiyao scoffed, "You better survive today first! Also, if I were at great perfection in the sacred soul realm like you, I could destroy you in an instant!"
"Ignorant." After Luo Ruoshui coldly laughed, she soared into the air, gracefully descending to the high platform like a blue-clad fairy.
Immediately, the tens of thousands of disciples from the Five Soul Lineage erupted in admiration, their voices flooding the vast summit like a tide!
"Our saintess will definitely defeat Tan Yun!"
"Is this even a question? Our saintess has already taken the lead in the grand competition among the sacred gate’s nine meridians disciples!"
"And have you all forgotten? Our saintess holds more titles than Tan Yun!"
"Right, right, I almost forgot! Our saintess was the number one among the outer sect disciples!"
"Later, she was also first in the inner sect’s nine meridians grand competition! She was first again in the immortal sect’s nine meridians grand competition! Plus, the number one on the saint list, our saintess already holds four titles of first!"
"That's right, Tan Yun is merely the first in the outer sect, inner sect, and immortal sect!"
"As long as our saintess wins this core ten veins grand competition, she will have achieved all the honors that a disciple can possess! This is what you call a grand slam!"
"The saintess will crush Tan Yun!"
"Crush Tan Yun!"
"…"
With the sounds of admiration echoing in her ears, Luo Ruoshui raised her jade hand, and the disciples of the Five Soul Lineage quieted down.
She looked down at Tan Yun and said coldly, "This saintess has long heard that you are the first in the outer sect, inner sect, and immortal sect. Today, I want to see if you can withstand even half an hour under my attack!"
"I can't," Tan Yun shook his head, "I definitely can't..."
Tan Yun paused, then suddenly spoke with overwhelming confidence, "Because I will only let you live for a moment!"
