Following Wu Erlang shout, Qin Xinran’s small frame appeared through the crowd and she jumped onto the battle arena agilely. Tilting her head, she looked extremely pure and innocent, “I am here now, can we begin?”

Everyone was taken aback.

They were against such a fierce opponent and the Gui Yuan clan actually sent such a weak-looking lady?

Even Wu Erlang was stumped. Narrowing his eyes, he asked, “You?”

“Yes, why can’t it be me?” Qin Xinran blinked as if confused as to why Wu Erlang was hesitating.

Normally, if he bumped into such a sweet young lady, Wu Erlang would be slightly protective over her. However, now he urgently needed to vent after losing such a huge amount of god stones. He could not be bothered to consider anymore as he snorted, “Ha, if that is the case then don’t blame me for not having mercy.”

At most, he would not take it too far to ensure that she did not die.

Although the Clan Ranking Tournament did not allow killings, it was mainly for the weaker and smaller clans. As for a clan like the Tianluo Clan, which was in the top 500 clans, as long as they were not too harsh, no one would investigate them.

As the judge announced the start of the fight, everyone broke out into cold sweat for Qin Xinran.

Wu Erlang was simply an extremely famous lower-class True God that was just second to the talented disciples in the top 100 clans. There was no way Qin Xinran could win against him. They really could not bear to see such a cute young lady get beaten half to death.

Out of compassion, they even started shouting to Qin Xinran to admit defeat.

Admitting defeat was not possible, unless it was the person that she was challenging that wanted to.

Qin Xinran laughed and waved off their suggestions. Her two canines appeared as she beckoned Wu Erlang, “Don’t you want to fight? Come on then!”

“Ho, I will do as you wish!” Wu Erlang bellowed. Brandishing his Meteor Hammer, which was about three times as big as a human head, he rushed towards Qin Xinran.

“Tsk, barbaric.” Qin Xinran scorned as she hopped lightly and landed on top of Wu Erlang’s Meteor Hammer. “But I like it!”

Qin Xinran suddenly charged downwards. She was not planning to use her agility to play with him but was facing him head on.

Bang!

The loud sound of flesh hitting made the people who heard it feel as if they were the ones that got hit. Those that were more cowardly even shut their eyes, afraid to see the delicate young lady get thrown by Wu Erlang and fall to the ground miserably.

“Ah—” As expected the cry of misery could be heard, rough and angry.

Look how pitiful she was, it was so painful that her voice changed.

“Damn it, I will kill you!”

…That’s not right! Why did that sound like Wu Erlang’s voice?

Those that shut their eyes immediately opened them, wanting to see what was going on.

Whereas those that had kept their eyes on what was happening in the arena felt like they were looking at an illusion.

Wu Erlang who was famous for being physically strong and was a crazy fighter actually lost to a skinny young lady that was only about as tall as his shoulder?

As Wu Erlang was fuming, Qin Xinran laughed bashfully and looked extremely cute. But now, no one was thinking of her as a weak lady.

What kind of weak lady could knock the Meteor Hammer to the side and flatten someone’s chest?

Not only that, when Wu Erlang was grabbing her two arms and was trying to tear them off, Qin Xinran had done a somersault. With her toes pressing hard off the floor, she had thrown Wu Erlang that was at least two times bigger than her into the air.

Boom!

The immense fall caused the entire battle arena to shake.

There was shock in everyone’s eyes. This was now more than a perilous situation.

“Is…is she a female?”

“More than whether she is a female, I want to know how she produced such an immense amount of strength and power from the small body?”

She was like a human-shaped machine.

“Come on! Didn’t you feel like hitting me? Stand up and hit me then.” Qin Xinran kicked Wu Erlang who was sprawled on the floor and taunted excitedly. It felt like all the cells on her body were screaming for her to ‘go again’.

It has been a while since she had met such a ‘meaty’ opponent. She simply could not bear to part with Wu Erlang.

At the bottom of the stage, Hunting Cat felt a cold tremble as he looked at Qin Xinran’s excited eyes. He silently compared the difference between his own body size and Qin Xinran’s. To his horror, he realised when it came to physical strength, he was not even a match for Wu Erlang who had been thrown on the floor. Disappointed, he silently prayed for his future.

Even if he was going to be treated like a sandbag, he would not give up chasing this wife that he had fallen for!

In the arena, Wu Erlang wobbled as he got up unsteadily. He was filled with indignance as he pounced towards Qin Xinran once more. Qin Xinran’s eyes lit up as she hopped up once again, tugging onto Wu Erlang’s arm, she threw him over her shoulder.

As she flung him on the floor, she did not feel satisfied as she thought about it and threw him in another direction. This happened about ten more times and Wu Erlang’s internal organs were all on the brink of shifting places. Fresh blood spilled out of his mouth.

At this point, Wu Erlang did not think of venting his anger anymore but only wanted to quickly end this battle. The next time that Qin Xinran smashed him onto the floor, he raised a trembling hand and stuttered, “I-I admit defeat…”

If he still did not admit defeat, he was going to be killed soon.

“As a man, how can you admit defeat so easily?” Qin Xinran sulked as she wished for it to continue, “A real man will keep fighting. You are admitting defeat so quickly, such a disappointment.”

If he didn’t admit defeat, then was he supposed to be beaten alive by you?!

Fear filled Wu Erlang’s eyes as he looked at Qin Xinran. In this life, he will forever be haunted by the memory of being treated as a bag and thrown around by someone.

Even until when the judge announced that Qin Xinran was the winner and handed a token over to Tianfeng Jin, signifying their advancement, everyone who was watching still had a feeling of disbelief. It was only until Gu Lingzhi’s group left that the person that had received Gu Lingzhi’s bet earlier hooted with joy.

Initially, when Gu Lingzhi placed her bet, he had added his own bet with hers in order to move people to bet on Gui Yuan Clan. Now he had earned quite a bit!

The fight between the Gui Yuan Clan and Tianluo Clan was shocking and within a short period of time, it had already spread. Quite a number of people had heard about this new clan called the Gui Yuan Clan that had beaten the Tianluo Clan, which was within the top 500 ranking, three times consecutively.

It was not that winning three times consecutively was impossible, but to eliminate a clan within the top 500 rankings in the first round had never happened before.

“Isn’t the Tianluo Clan pretty useless? They were actually defeated by a new clan. This time, they won’t even make it to the top 1000 rankings. In the next one thousand years, they won’t have a place in the Secret Territory. Haha.”

“Increase the number of people monitoring the Gui Yuan Clan. Even if it was Tianluo Clan’s fault for looking down on their ability, their abilities must be of a certain standard to be able to defeat Tianluo Clan. We can’t lose to them like the Tianluo Clan.”

A few clans rejoiced while a few clans became troubled. As the people from Tianluo Clan were devastated and left the Clan Tournament dejectedly, there were quite a few that were celebrating.

To lose a strong competitor right from the beginning was a good thing to everyone.

With the fame that Gui Yuan Clan had gotten from this round, they toned things down for the subsequent rounds.

In order to prevent others from assessing their abilities, in the following rounds, the three of them, including Qin Xinran did not compete. As for the rest of the members that participated, they also hid at least half of their abilities. No matter whether their opponents were strong or weak, Gui Yuan Clan always went in looking as if they were weak and were disadvantaged. Those that were silently observing Gui Yuan Clan would always be surprised by them.

Unknowingly, Gui Yuan Clan had made it past ten preliminary rounds. They were ranked at the bottom of the list and were now ranked in the top 500. It made those that were silently assessing them come to a realization. The Gui Yuan Clan had actually made it so far. In another two rounds, they would be in the top one hundred clans.

“In the semi-finals, our first round will be against the Qisha Clan. They were ranked number 97 in the Clan Tournament the previous time. This round, we will have a difficult fight.” Tianfeng Jin said solemnly.

Hearing this made everyone’s expressions turn serious, but they still were not looking too bad.

After all, there were not many clans left and it was normal to be up against a clan ranking in the top 100. They were already considered lucky to not be drawn up against the top ten clans.

Rong Yuan muttered to himself as he knocked the top of the table, “Everyone, don’t be pressurized. Just do what you normally do to the best of your abilities. Although the abilities of the top 100 clans will be extremely powerful, we are not far off. The semi-finals will have nine rounds instead. For Martial Sages, Demigods and lower-class True Gods, we will be having three rounds of competitions for each rank. Our greatest advantage is that our opponents have no idea what our strength is. If we manipulate this well, we can achieve surprising results.”

Zhuo Haotian then threw a bunch of information on the table as Rong Yuan completed his words. He immediately took credit, “When I want to get something, there is nothing I cannot find out. The information regarding the Martial Artists from the Qisha Clan is all here. Sister Tianfeng, am I impressive?”

“Yes.” Tianfeng Jin praised generously. This resulted in Xin Yi, who was standing beside her to pinch her in jealousy, “I am so sad. You are praising other men in front of me.”

Tianfeng Jin glared at him as her face flushed red, “How old are you? Why are you comparing yourself to a child?”

Xin Yi leaned in towards her and said softly, “I will not be petty only if it’s our child.” This caused Tianfeng Jin’s face to redden even more.

This was enough. Last time, it was Gu Lingzhi and Rong Yuan who would occasionally cause her to feel awkward with their flirting. Now, even the cold Tianfeng Jin was also doing this. She couldn’t live like this!

Qin Xinran covered her eyes in pain. As the only single person, the pressure on her was great.

Hunting Cat’s eyes flashed as he was filled with indecisiveness. Thinking about what Rong Yuan had taught him on how to chase Qin Xinran, he gritted his teeth as he walked up to Qin Xinran. He grabbed her wrist.

“Xinran, let’s raise a dog.”

“Huh?” Qin Xinran was confused.

Hunting Cat took a deep breath, “I said, don’t be jealous of them, let’s raise a dog.”

Rong Yuan told him that Qin Xinran liked domineering men. He hoped that Rong Yuan did not lie to him.
