Protect Our Clan Leader

After all, with Wang Luoqiu’s current strength, it was still slightly lacking to challenge a quasi-demon puppet of the Spirit Platform Realm. Only if she reached the peak of the Vital Energy Refining Realm would she have a chance of victory.

Changchun Valley was in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of Leisure Peak.

Senior Brother Jinshan and others seemed to be shrouded in a cloud of gloom, their morale low.

These new disciples wore blank expressions, deeply doubting their choice to join the Changchun Valley.

How could Changchun Valley be so weak?

“We Changchun Valley disciples like researching plants, and rarely focus on fighting. Moreover, the rules of the arena competition are somewhat unfair to us.” Junior Sister Green Fern spoke out to salvage the situation, “What we Changchun Valley disciples are really good at is conducting defensive warfare. Just give us some time and we can fortify a position until it’s as solid as a bucket of iron. Anyone who dares to break in will surely die.”

Indeed.

Wang Shouzhe nodded silently to this.

Although these disciples of Changchun Valley couldn’t manipulate plants as adeptly as him, and couldn’t grow plants quickly in a battle state, given enough time, they could still produce a large number of plants for battle.

If they were given a position to slowly fortify, they could turn that position into an impenetrable fortress like a tower defense game. Profound Martial cultivators of the same level who rushed in would basically just become punching bags.

Just look at Wang Shouzhe’s yard.

It has been fortified to a rather terrifying extent. Even a Profound Martial cultivator at the Spirit Platform Realm would meet a ghastly end if they dared to barge in recklessly.

Junior Sister Green Fern’s words finally managed to restore some of the new disciples’ confidence.

Meanwhile…

In the sky, Master Xuanyao was very satisfied with Wang Luoqiu’s performance: “My disciple Luoqiu truly lives up to my careful cultivation and painstaking teachings.”

Master Changchun shot him a profound look: “This girl just entered the sect today, didn’t she? When and where did you painstakingly cultivate and instruct her?”

“Heeheehee~”

Lady Huandie burst out laughing immediately, her body shaking with mirth.

The look on Master Changchun’s face darkened even more.

It took a good while for Lady Huandie’s laughter to finally cease.

She flicked her hair, shot a coquettish look at the two Masters beside her and said, “Master Xuanyao’s newly admitted disciple is indeed outstanding. But, isn’t it time for our disciples to take center stage?”

“Hahaha~ Even after witnessing the strength of my disciple, you still want to send your disciple to the arena. You must have absolute confidence.” Master Xuanyao laughed heartily, and the sparkle in his eyes betrayed his anticipation, “In that case, I am eager to see what happens next.”

Master Changchun’s face grew even darker.

Master Xuanyao had just finished being impressed, and now Lady Huandie was impatient to put on a show. Did they consider Changchun Valley to be pushovers?!

But who would blame him? Changchun Valley’s combat strength was more of a slowly building up type. Their capability in the early stage of cultivation for an arena battle wasn’t good. Regardless of how indignant he felt, he was helpless.

The darker Master Changchun’s face turned, hotter Lady Huandie’s excitement got, and she laughed even harder.

“My darling disciple, it’s your turn to go on stage. Make sure to ‘experience’ the abilities of the seniors from Changchun Valley.” She waved to the stage below.

“Yes, Master.”

Upon hearing the order, Wang Luo Jing calmly emerged from the line, and slowly walked onto the stage.

Unlike Wang Luoqiu’s aggression and dominance, Luo Jing possessed a tranquil and serene demeanor, along with an authentic, bone-deep indifference.

“Wang Luo Jing, a disciple from the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies,” Luo Jing stated softly. “I ask that Senior Brother Li Yuzhe recover properly before we commence.”

What?

This young lady from the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies also wants to challenge Senior Brother Li Yuzhe?

A buzz immediately filled the area beneath the stage.

Li Yuzhe had just barely managed to get up when he heard this, and his mind went blank as he wavered on his feet.

What on earth was going on? He wasn’t this popular before, yet suddenly all the junior sisters were lining up to challenge him.

What virtues and abilities had he, Li Yuzhe, displayed to deserve this honor?

In the crowd, Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but rub his forehead.

How could he forget? One of Luo Jing’s pet phrases was: What Luo Qiu can do, I can do as well.

Therefore, if Luo Qiu could defeat Li Yuzhe, then Luo Jing will undoubtedly do the same.

On this point, nobody could sway her. It was tough on Li Yuzhe, who was still recovering from his fight with Luo Qiu, and now had to face yet another round with Luo Jing.

Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but feel sorry for Li Yuzhe.
