Chapter 396 Appearance
The news that Yang Jingjing was going to run for the next election had thrown a new bomb into the already chaotic situation of the imperial election.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows why Yang Jingjing participated.
The leader of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, who was watching the lower round of the imperial election, saw a girl in green clothes coming on stage to compete. He moved his lips and bowed to the leader of the Lingtian Pavilion beside him, "Lingtian Pavilion is so kind. I will never forget this."
The head of Lingtian Pavilion looked at the girl on the stage with a sharp sword, was silent for a moment, and waved his hand: "This is not just for you, this girl has her own plans."
He also knew about Yang Jingjing's mother's affairs, but he was his own son after all, so he often punished his son in front of the child, in an attempt to let the child's resentment dissipate and let go of his prejudice and murderous intent towards his son.
But now it seems that it is no longer possible.
Since this child took the position of the young master of Lingtian Pavilion, he has been constantly cultivating his own power.
If Lin Zhao, whom she was pursuing, wins this time, then Lingtian Pavilion will no longer have any say in her son’s future.
The head of Lingtian Pavilion knew that this day would come to his son sooner or later, but he never expected that the boy wanted to bring this day forward so early.
"Do you really want grandpa to personally send off the young one?"
He looked at the girl on the stage, and an unnoticeable trace of fatigue flashed across his old face.
Yang Jingjing didn't know what the old man was thinking. After she defeated all the opponents in front of her, the referee allowed her to automatically choose her opponent.
Yang Jingjing held the knife and slowly moved her eyes towards an arena. Looking at Ji Wantang, who was dressed in blood-red clothes and looked like a nightmare to her, her hand holding the knife trembled slightly.
She still could not forget the feeling of being so close to death when she fought with Ji Wantang.
The gap between her and Ji Wantang is only bigger now than it was then. This time, no one will have the chance to stop Ji Wantang in time. If Ji Wantang has murderous intentions towards her, her challenge will be tantamount to seeking her own death.
Yang Jingjing gripped the hilt of her knife tightly, with the tip of the knife pointing towards Ji Wantang. However, after meeting Ji Wantang's narrow and long phoenix eyes, Yang Jingjing felt her throat go cold.
As a Nascent Soul stage warrior, even though there were thousands of people between them, she could still clearly see the mockery and contempt in Ji Wantang's eyes when he looked at her while sitting on the stage.
"I want……"
"I've challenged this opponent, so please don't compete with me for it, right?"
Before she could finish her words, Yang Jingjing heard a familiar voice from the audience. She was startled and looked in one direction.
An ordinary-looking girl in blue clothes shook the registration jade slip in her hand, met her gaze, smiled with curved lips, wiped her face, revealing a pure and beautiful face.
"Thank you for these days."
Yang Jingjing put away her sword and looked at Lin Zhao: "I have done what I can do. The rest is all up to you."
Lin Zhao made an OK gesture, then jumped onto the platform that the staff had arranged for him. Without even summoning a weapon, he used his spiritual energy to spread his voice throughout the square: "Phoenix Medicine Sect, Lin Zhao, please give me some advice."
The voice fell and there was a long silence.
The next moment, the whole audience was boiling.
At this moment, even when Ji Wantang announced his participation in the next election, there was not such a sensational scene.
The head of the Phoenix Medicine Sect saw this scene and laughed and scolded: "This girl likes to make such a scene wherever she goes."
The head of Lingtian Pavilion looked at Lin Zhao, and after sensing something, his expression suddenly became mysterious: "Young people, it's good to be a little arrogant. Besides, her opponent is Ji Wantang, who has been known as the invincible young generation in the Zuhuang plane for many years."
After Lin Zhao learned that he had to defeat ten people at once to be qualified to challenge Ji Wantang, he smiled and said, "It's too late, but it's just in time. Everyone, can challenging ten people at once be considered as defeating ten at once?"
When the referee heard this, his face turned pale.
Ji Wantang's initial appearance brought him a lot of trouble. Ji Wantang's attacks were ruthless, and every move was fatal. Even though his cultivation had reached the fusion stage, he was almost always too late to save people, causing many contestants to die directly at the hands of Ji Wantang.
But no matter how arrogant Ji Wantang was, he would only leave no lives in the fight. This was simply violating Lin Zhao's dignity as a referee.
"Of course not! Phoenix Medicine Sect Lin Zhao is giving you a red warning!"
Lin Zhao: “…” I was just asking, how did I get a warning?
"It's a bad start." Lin Zhao sighed. He didn't dare to act weird anymore. He just stood there obediently, letting everyone's eyes fall on him from all directions.
She certainly knew how unfavorable the current situation was for her.
Of course, she knew better how to break this situation.
In the world of cultivation, the strong are respected.
You can be arrogant, rampant, or even like Ji Wantang, but the prerequisite is that you must have absolute strength to suppress all negative comments.
As long as you are strong enough, all your negative shortcomings are just a reflection of your strength.
So ever since Lin Zhao appeared, she had no intention of keeping a low profile.
In today's situation, being low-key will only make people think you are weak and easy to be bullied. If you bear the fame of being the center of attention but don't have the ability to match it, then you must be prepared to be relegated to the dust by hundreds of millions of people.
But perhaps it was because Lin Zhao was too arrogant that she annoyed the referee and the next contestant. Her first opponent was a Yuanying Great Perfection.
"There aren't many Yuanying Great Perfection people in this election, and you arranged a good start for me first?"
Lin Zhao looked at the sword cultivator opposite him who was full of hostility. He could tell at a glance that this man definitely had many lives on his hands.
In other words, a good player.
"The seventh on the Empire Selection List, Duan Yannian, please enlighten me!"
Lin Zhao was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
Duan Yannian raised his head, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
Lin Zhao was ranked sixth on the Empire Selection list. Although some people initially thought that this ranking was too low, as her popularity has plummeted in recent days, most people now think that Lin Zhao might not even have this ranking.
After all, what the people from Diyin Sect said was right. Lin Zhao had never fought against the truly top few people in the Zuhuang plane.
This also made Duan Yannian, who was ranked below her, endure for a long time.
But he did not keep mocking and cursing like others, but just kept waiting.
Duan Yannian looked at Lin Zhao and said calmly, "I know you are not as bad as some people say you are, but I also think that your sixth place is a bit too high."
Facing his question, Lin Zhao did not answer: "You are a member of the current royal family of the Zuhuang Empire, right?"
Duan Yannian nodded: "But I won't deliberately lose to you just because the royal family is on your side."
Lin Zhao laughed.
It has to be said that when Lin Zhao's appearance was revealed at a time when she had a bad reputation, it made people very imaginative.
A cultivator who only has beautiful looks but lacks the strength to match his or her beauty, regardless of whether he or she is a man or a woman, will become the best plaything in the eyes of everyone.
"I asked you this because I just wanted to determine how to fight."
Following the referee's order, the gray-white sword in Duan Yannian's hand burst out with sword energy and stabbed towards Lin Zhao.
"Lin Zhao, it's time for you to pay a price for your previous fame!"
