Chapter 412 Two-Person Competition 1.5
"So tired!" Even though Qin Che was usually a slacker, his exhaustion was still evident as he stepped off the stage.
Since the first match today, he has already fought five matches! Five matches! Two of them were against elite disciples of the five major sects. Even someone as strong as Huo Yan couldn't take on two opponents at once.
Such high intensity, even livestock couldn't withstand it!
Qin Che leaned wearily against Huo Yan: "Junior sister, give me some!"
Huo Yan stood ramrod straight, trying his best to lean on Qin Che, but his expressionless face still showed signs of exhaustion, clearly indicating that he was also about to give up.
Cheng Jiu felt somewhat helpless about Qin Che's words, which made it seem as if there was some shady business between them.
A hint of green appeared in Cheng Jiu's palm, and two beams of green light entered the two of them. Qin Che let out a comfortable sigh and stood up straight: "Thank you, Junior Sister!"
Yingyue, watching from the side, asked with a worried expression, "Senior brothers, are you alright?"
"I'm exhausted!" Qin Che's voice was languid as his gaze swept over the roasted spirit fruits held in the arms of the four people. They really are living a leisurely life, Qin Che didn't want to admit, but he was jealous!
"You guys seem to be having a lot of time on your hands." Qin Che's tone was slightly sour, tinged with a probing curiosity: "Didn't Senior Brother An Qi look for you two?"
It's important to understand that such a high-intensity competition is not only a test for those who participate, but also a major test for logistics and medical personnel like Yao Feng.
Many disciples from Yaofeng also participated in the two-person competition.
With Cheng Jiu around, Qin Che had never been there, but he heard from the senior brothers and sisters he occasionally met that the Medicine Peak was extremely busy, with everyone working non-stop.
In this situation, would Senior Brother Yao Feng and Senior Brother An Qi, who are in charge of the logistics and medical team, just stand by and watch these two great helpers leisurely wander around?
Understanding Qin Che's question, Yingyue and Wen Sishu guiltily touched their noses: "As long as we don't get caught, it's fine."
Qin Che understood; it wasn't that they hadn't looked, but rather that they couldn't find it.
Yingyue and Wensishu, feeling somewhat justified under Qin Che's gaze, said, "We want to play for a few more days! Senior brother, don't you sometimes skip sect affairs too?"
After the two-person competition, it will be the four arts competition and the team battle. There will be no rest time after that. This is a rare moment of leisure for them. They also want to take a break.
Qin Che had no way to refute this.
However, when she thought about the busy medical life ahead, even someone as responsible as Wen Sishu couldn't help but show the same worried look as her senior sister. No, it's not that they hadn't experienced it before; it was precisely because they had that they were resistant.
After all, even Senior Brother Qin Che had heard how busy Medicine Peak was; their addition would only be a drop in the ocean, unless…
Cheng Jiu paused slightly as she ate her fruit. Looking up, she met the gazes of the three people. Hesitantly, she pointed to herself and said, "Hey, maybe I want some too…?"
Yingyue and Wensi nodded together.
Yingyue reached out and hugged Cheng Jiu's hand, her voice tinged with a hint of coquetry: "Please, Junior Sister!"
Cheng Jiu couldn't refuse Yingyue's aggrieved tone, so he reluctantly nodded, "Alright!"
"You're actually an alchemist?" Lan Chang realized and looked at Cheng Jiu.
"I have a wood elemental root, is that strange?" Cheng Jiu nodded, his tone very calm, and looked at Lan Chang with a question in his eyes.
Lan Chang stared back at her with wide eyes. Wasn't this something worth asking?
Lan Chang recalled Cheng Jiu's spiritual root, and it didn't seem strange at all. It was a living wood element, a natural alchemist.
No, that's not right, there's a huge problem.
How could someone with such strong abilities still find time to learn alchemy?
Lan Chang was quite devastated. This was the first time he had felt defeated since leaving the battlefield. His opponent was not only younger than him and stronger, but also an alchemist!
Such a person actually exists!
This was the first time Lan Chang had experienced a setback. He had often heard his master say that there were always people more capable than him and that there was always something beyond his understanding. And it was true.
"Junior Sister Cheng Jiu has a very high talent for alchemy. She was already a seventh-grade alchemist before, and she should have broken through now!" Qin Che looked at Cheng Jiu with a questioning gaze.
Cheng Jiu nodded and made a gesture: Eighth Rank!
"Pervert!" Lan Chang muttered, adjusting the roasted fruit in his arms, and ate!
Only in this way can his wounded heart be comforted.
"We won, we're back!" Gong Yu and Gong Cheng returned from a match, still full of energy, Gong Yu's voice carrying a joyful tone.
"Welcome back!" Cheng Jiu said with a smile.
Gong Yu grabbed a handful of roasted fruit from Lan Chang's arms and excitedly approached Cheng Jiu: "Junior Sister, do you know? We've encountered two talisman cultivators from the Cloud Soaring Sect this time."
"They're really tough to deal with!" Miyagi chimed in, agreeing with his younger brother.
"You don't know, with two earth elemental roots, the entire arena was filled with sand and dust, you couldn't see anything at all!" Gong Yu gestured, "They hid in the sand and dust, sticking talismans on us!"
Cheng Jiu asked with concern, "Ah, senior brothers, are you alright?"
"With your senior brother's strength, dealing with him is a piece of cake! I summoned a large amount of water, and with one spray, they'll be running away with the mud!" Gong Yu proudly put his hands on his hips. This competition, he, Gong Yu, had truly displayed his divine might.
"Senior brother is amazing." Cheng Jiu said with a hint of admiration.
"Don't listen to this guy's bragging!" Gong Cheng looked at his younger brother and curled his lip, then said to Cheng Jiu, "You don't know that this guy almost messed up in the end. Did he really think his tricks could take on two people at once?"
"Brother!" Gong Yu called out to his brother in dissatisfaction. Why did you have to ruin his moment when he was in the most excitement?
Gong Cheng snorted twice, ultimately giving Gong Yu some face. If he hadn't been watching on the stage earlier, he probably would have been defeated by those two disciples who had turned into mud figures.
As expected of a disciple of the Cloud Soaring Sect, a master of earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of technique that allows one to hide in mud for a period of time).
"Are your matches all over for today?" Cheng Jiu asked, seeing how relaxed the four of them were.
"That's all for today." Gong Yu calculated the schedule: "There are two matches tomorrow and one the day after, so it's not too difficult."
Qin Che nodded: "We don't have any matches tomorrow, but there are three matches the day after tomorrow!"
"So busy."
"But it's alright!" Qin Che scratched the back of his head, looking nonchalant. "It's much easier than today."
"Wouldn't things be much easier afterward?" Yingyue's eyes lit up.
It seems the busiest time is over.
