Chapter 370 Tournament (14)
She waved the fan in her hand and there was a storm of flower petals that was raised.
This was unlike anything that she had shown before, making it clear that she was going all out now.
The flower petals hid the arena from the audience, but the crowd didn\'t mind at all. They were excited seeing this display of flower petals flying in front of them.
Even if they were able to see the stage, it would be hard for them to understand what they were watching since they weren\'t cultivators. Instead, this flower petal storm was beautiful and shocking enough that they were all filled with excitement.
But that flower petal storm didn\'t last long.
After the flower petal storm appeared, it disappeared just as quickly before several identical figures appeared on the stage.
They were all the young miss who used the flower petals.
These were her illusions created by the flower petals.
But it was different from when she used this move against the young master who used lightning.
In that fight, the flower petals only created three illusions of her and that had already been enough to overwhelm the young master.
This time, there were over twenty illusions that were currently on stage surrounding Bi Qing.
But even then, the young miss with the fan still had a serious look on her face as if she didn\'t feel that it was enough.
To her credit, it really wasn\'t.
Bi Qing had a calm look on her face as she watched the flower petals flowing around her and the illusions formed. She didn\'t make a single move as she waited for all of the clones to appear.
It was almost as if she didn\'t feel any threat from the clones at all.
Once all of them had formed, the young miss who used flower petals looked at Bi Qing with a serious look on her face before all of the clones suddenly started moving on their own. Every single clone went out in a different direction, but not a single clone dared to approach Bi Qing.
The young miss knew that Bi Qing\'s specialty was her physique, so there was no way that she would try to fight her in close range.
So all of the clones surrounded her and pulled out the same fan. Then in one swift move, all of them flicked those fans, sending out flower petals at Bi Qing.
These flower petals were different from the ones that had been used to create the illusion.
There was a glint to these flower petals that one would associate with metal.
That\'s right, these flower petals were actually hidden weapons that were made of iron. They were as sharp as swords and as flexible as daggers, making them the perfect hidden weapon.
Using these with the flower petals that she used to create the illusions, she had a perfect system of attack and defense.
But the young miss never used these before because…they were dangerous.
They were hard for her to control properly, so if she were to use it in a fight, she wouldn\'t have been able to ensure that no one would die. If she used it in a fight before, she might have seriously hurt someone and she couldn\'t risk it.
However, when it came to Bi Qing…she had no choice but to use it.
Bi Qing was strong enough that she believed that she would be able to take this, so she didn\'t hesitate to use this powerful and lethal attack.
Seeing the flower petals flying towards her, Bi Qing didn\'t panic at all.
Instead, all she did was slowly raise her hand and place it in front of her balled up into a fist. Even as the flower petals came closer and closer, she didn\'t make a move as she just watched them approach.
Finally, when they were right about to hit her, she suddenly punched out.
When she punched out, it seemed like nothing had happened at first. But when one looked at it closely, they saw that all of the flower petals that had been flying at her had…suddenly frozen in the air.
It was as if there was some kind of invisible force that was blocking them from flying forward.
Then as if on cue, all of the flower petals started flying back at the same time. It was as if it had been hit with a wall of force that completely sent all of the flower petals flying without any resistance.
They flew through the air and then scattered into fragments, disappearing without a trace.
In less than a few seconds, all of the flower petals had disappeared.
The illusions and the flower petal blades had all been shattered to pieces, leaving behind only the real young miss who stood there in a daze. She just stared forward as if she couldn\'t believe what had just happened.
After all, it was just too unbelievable.
But it had happened and it was impossible to deny.
So the young miss quickly recovered and was about to do something else.
Even though her ultimate skill had failed, she knew that if she didn\'t do anything now, it would be too late.
But it was too bad that it was already too late for her.
Bi Qing disappeared once again and when she appeared again, she was standing in front of the young miss.
Her fist…was already at her stomach.
The young miss\' eyes rolled back and she crumpled like a puppet that had its strings cut. At the very least, she wasn\'t sent flying like the other two had been, so she was able to keep her prestige.
The referee wasn\'t stunned this time since he had already expected this result.
So with a sigh, he declared that Bi Qing was the winner.
The crowd wasn\'t able to react to this at first, but then the cheers broke out.
Bi Qing\'s story really was a complicated one.
She had gone from being hated by the crowd to someone that was loved by the crowd.
But to Bi Qing, none of that mattered.
She just cupped her hands to the young miss and then left like she had done in the previous match.
The referee revealed a bitter smile, but he didn\'t stop her since he knew that she wouldn\'t leave. There was still the award ceremony after this and it was the reason why she had come here in the first place.
As long as the reward that she wanted was here, there was no chance that she would leave.
But of course, they couldn\'t just let it happen here.
That was because the arena had been destroyed.
The flower petal storm was the ultimate move of the young miss, so it wasn\'t a weak attack. The punch that Bi Qing had used to break it wasn\'t weak either, so it had been able to create countless cracks on the walls and floors of the arena.
In short, this arena stage had been completely destroyed by Bi Qing.
People just didn\'t notice it because the clash between the two had been so flashy, but after calming down, they were all shocked by the sight in front of them. This was definitely a match that was worthy of the finals.
So the first thing that they did was clean up the arena before holding the award ceremonies.
Normally, this would be the part where the organizers would be able to let out a sigh of relief since this meant that their event had gone successfully, but that wasn\'t the case this time. This time, they couldn\'t relax their guard now that the event was over because there was still the award ceremony.
The reward that was given was one that everyone wanted, so there would be people wanting to steal it.
That included the culprit behind the incident a few days ago.
That incident was caused without anyone realizing it, so there wasn\'t anyone who had been able to find a clue as to who the culprit was. That meant that the culprit was still out there.
There was no doubt that they were aiming for this tournament and this prize, so the award ceremony would be where they would strike.
To counter this, there were countless guards that had been placed all around the arena and all the seeded contestants who were outside of the top three weren\'t allowed in. Only those on the podium would be allowed to participate in the award ceremony.
These were Bi Qing, the young miss with the fan, and the young miss with the zither who had won the third place match after the finals.
The two young missus couldn\'t help feeling awkward going up onto the stage with Bi Qing, but Bi Qing completely ignored them which made it a bit better for them.
As they stood on the podium, they were completely surrounded by guards and these guards weren\'t weak. Most of them were in the Foundation Realm and there were even two Qi Condensing Realm guards.
It was clear how much the organizers had invested in this.
The prizes were brought up surrounded by guards and brought forward to the three of them.
The prizes for second and third place weren\'t as exciting as the prize for first place, so most people didn\'t really care that much about them. Even the two young missus who won didn\'t seem to care.
But when the prize for first place was brought out, everyone focused on the guards that were escorting it over.
