Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1405: Challenge in the Arena

Su Yuanyuan just smiled, as she already had targets she wanted to challenge.

"Junior Sister Su, who do you want to challenge? Let me see if I have a Sound Transmission Talisman here."

"I challenge Brother Bai Xiaoyao from Spirit Five Peak, Brother Feng Jingyuan from Spirit Three Peak, and Brother Yao Chenyi from Spirit Second Peak."

"Wow, these are all talented people. Alright, I’ll send them Sound Transmission Talismans right away."

Ren Changyi was ignored to the side, still showing the smile of a gentleman, but internally he was displeased. Su Yuanyuan really thought his ideas were quite peculiar.

"Junior Sister Su, all three brothers have replied. According to your sequence, tomorrow is my third brother. The day after is Brother Bai, the day after that is Brother Feng. On the fourth day is Brother Yao. What about the fifth day?"

"We’ll talk about the fifth day later, I haven’t decided yet."

Tan Shaoting came over, "Let’s head back."

Su Yuanyuan smiled and exchanged a word with Xu Ying, and the couple left.

Watching their backs, "They really make quite a matching pair, don’t they?"

She had this thought more than once, even when they went out last time.

Qi Wen went to take her bet winnings.

"Nephew is surely lucky."

"Thank you, Master Uncle."

"No need to thank, just support us more in the future."

Miao Xiaotong and her group of four also got their Spirit Stones.

"Qi Wen, your aunt is really impressive."

Qi Wen just laughed. If they knew her mother only really started engaging with cultivation more than two years ago, she wondered what they would think.

Feng Yan spoke loudly, "We’ll continue tomorrow; tomorrow’s odds are three to one."

The second day of the match with Ren Changyi, Tan Shaoting also bet ten thousand Spirit Stones.

"Master Uncle, such a huge bet?"

"Hmm."

"It seems Master Uncle has a lot of faith in Junior Sister."

Tan Shaoting really did not know what to say. Last night his wife said she did not like Ren Changyi, so today she certainly wouldn’t be as polite as she was to Xu Ying yesterday. Such words couldn’t be said.

Qi Wen still bet two thousand; she knew that was good enough, no need to overdo it.

After Su Yuanyuan arrived, she simply cupped her fists, able to clearly analyze Ren Changyi’s moves, really not wanting to waste time, so half an hour later, she directly transformed Golden Spiritual Power into a sword, aiming straight at Ren Changyi’s Dantian.

"Junior Sister Su, I lost."

Su Yuanyuan smiled slightly and took a step back, but she did not put away her Spirit Sword.

She knew Ren Changyi already hated her profoundly, afraid he might impulsively attempt an ambush or something; she had no need to be startled.

The referee declared Su Yuanyuan’s victory. She nodded at Ren Changyi and jumped off the arena. The audience below was in uproar, all knowing yesterday she sparred with Xu Fairy, and today she won against Master Ren again; how could she be so powerful?

Ren Changyi could not have been more embarrassed today, being defeated so quickly under the gaze of the crowd.

Qi Wen laughingly went with Feng Yan to exchange Spirit Stones.

"Lost, lost, this time it was a huge loss."

Qi Wen ignored his grumbling, thinking about how much he had already earned.

Today Miao Xiaotong and her group of four also won, all pulling Qi Wen with joy to treat her to a meal.

Qi Wen nodded with a smile, sending her father a Sound Transmission Talisman.

"Qi Wen, does your aunt have certainty about tomorrow’s match against Master Bai?"

"How would I know? Master Bai is at the Ninth Level of Foundation Establishment."

"Are you still going to bet on your aunt’s victory tomorrow?"

"Of course."

After returning, Feng Yan was called over by Feng Yiyun.

"How was it?"

"Grandfather, didn’t you see? Yesterday was just play, and today she only used twenty percent of her sincerity."

"I’ve seen it. What do you think about her against Yao Chenyi?"

"Evenly matched, perhaps? But this Su Yuanyuan is a Sword Cultivator."

Feng Yiyun nodded, "Hmm."

Su Yuanyuan met Bai Xiaoyao afterward; she really had a good impression of him, as he was truly a righteous but not overly sanctimonious person.

"Junior Sister Su, please, don’t stand on ceremony. Let’s have a straightforward match."

Su Yuanyuan smiled and nodded. This momentarily stunned Bai Xiaoyao; she was really beautiful.

Tan Shaoting below was quite displeased; how could his wife smile so warmly at that naive fellow?

Their match was really more entertaining than the previous two.

Both treated each other seriously. Bai Xiaoyao was indeed quite good. Su Yuanyuan could guess ninety percent of his approach.

The fight also concluded in half an hour.

"Junior Sister Su, I lost, and I wholeheartedly accept it."

"Brother Bai, you let me win."

"Junior Sister Su is truly outstanding."

Actually, neither had used their full strength, just probing each other since there were still selection matches and ranking battles.

A lot of bets were placed on Bai Xiaoyao, and Su Yuanyuan’s victory let Feng Yan earn another fortune.

"Hmph, I don’t believe she can win again tomorrow or the day after." Of course, those who lost felt uneasy.

Tan Shaoting came over to pick up his wife, displeased seeing the two talking and laughing.

"Qi Wen, Qi Wen, this time I bet on aunt’s victory, and now I’ve earned money," Miao Xiaotong said with a smile.

"That’s great. Today, I’ll treat you all, let’s eat out."

"Really? Qi Wen, why not wait until it’s all over and you treat us afterward?"

"Alright."

"Everyone, tomorrow’s odds are five to one. Please continue tomorrow."

While the family of three was having a meal together, "Am I being too high-profile? Should I lose to Feng Jingyuan tomorrow?"

"Mother, there’s no need; people respect you because you have skills."

"But I’m at the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer, and tomorrow is the Foundation Establishment Tenth Layer."

"If you win tomorrow, you can lose the day after."

"Alright, perhaps I don’t even need to hold back and will still lose."

Feng Jingyuan was extremely well-known, and today Spirit Three Peak had many disciples come to cheer for him.

Seeing the situation, Feng Yan grinned wide enough to show his back teeth.

Feng Jingyuan was dazzled by Su Yuanyuan’s appearance for a moment. He hadn’t been back for long and really hadn’t noticed there was such a beautiful junior sister in the sect.

"Brother Feng, please be lenient."

"Junior Sister Su, leniency should truly come from you."

This time Su Yuanyuan really took it seriously, with Feng Jingyuan’s cultivation close to Core Formation, he had been holding back, probably for the ranking battle or for a perfect Core Formation? Highly likely, he undoubtedly was formidable.

Their fight also lasted about half an hour.

Feng Jingyuan conceded. "I truly am not as good as Junior Sister Su."

"Brother Feng was considerate."

The audience below was in an uproar. They really hadn’t expected a female cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer to win against a male cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Tenth Layer.

They couldn’t see it, but the referee had already noticed. These days he has been refereeing for Su Yuanyuan, knowing that this female cultivator and Feng Jingyuan’s strength were comparable.

He looked forward to tomorrow’s match, curious to see what surprises this female cultivator might bring. Holding the Memory Stone in his hand, he left, as the Sect Master was waiting to watch.
