After the Beast Blood Cloud beast incident earlier, the Wu Xuan Peerless Hall was unusually quiet after night fall, there was silence everywhere.
Unlike the 500 outer disciples who lived in three-person dormitories, the inner disciples all had their own room, the top five disciples even had their own courtyard.
At this time, Evening Practice was about to begin and for the warriors of the inner court, the sparring matches were the most important.
Just as the disciples of the inner court arrived at the practice field one after another, they found that the normally quiet field was full of people, all of whom were female warriors of the outer court.
"What's going on? What did the warriors of the outer court run to the inner court for?"
"Senior Brother Cheng Bai competed with a few exchange students and broke the practice field of the outer court. It hasn't been repaired yet. It seems the people of the outer court came to borrow our field."
"No, most of the people are just standing around, only two disciples are standing in the middle of the field, looks like they will spar with each other!"
"Wow – it's Luo Qing, the strongest female warrior of the outer court. This match will certainly be exciting, hurry up and call the brothers and sisters to come and watch the fun."
In the Wu Xuan Peerless Hall, private fights were strictly forbidden, but for these young and energetic warriors, it was obviously impossible for the school to control their fights, so spars were born.
The Martial Hall's sparring matches weren't limited to fighting, there were also horse stance, etc. During the spar, in order to be fair and impartial, Senior Brothers or Sisters would be invited to preside over them.
But today's spar was a bit unusual. The two girls who stood prominently on the field were competing with weights that would have made the any male warrior gasp in amazement.
In only a few moments, the news of the sparring match in the inner court spread throughout the Martial Hall.
***
Lei Hu was taking Gu Feng and Qi Gubian to visit the Practice Hall at the moment. But when he heard that someone was competing, he enthusiastically took them to the practice field. While walking, he chatted and said, "You're lucky. The sparring matches in Wu Xuan Peerless Hall are very exciting. Last time, one of the Senior Brothers used a battle technique of Martial Master level, it was so exciting!"
The effect of battle techniques was not as good as spells, but it was not to be underestimated.
As Lei Hu said this, they arrived at the field, but it was extremely crowded, the inside and outside were packed with disciples, Lei Hu could only ask someone: "Which two Senior Brothers are sparring today, and what is the content of the competition?"
"It's two female students of the outer court. I heard that one of them is also an exchange student. She really does not know how to live or die. Challenging someone far above her level," the questioned person had a gloating tone in their voice as they said this, Luo Qing's name was also famous in the inner court.
Female Exchange Student? Isn't that Big Sister Yun?!
When Lei Hu heard this, he was confused. It was only her first night in the dormitory and she already provoked Luo Qing, the strongest sister in the dormitory!
"Go and take a look, so that nothing goes wrong," Gu Feng and Qi Gubian also listened to the disciple and the three of them squeezed into the crowd.
The three arrived in front of the field, they saw Yun Sheng and Luo Qing opposite each other, with a middle-aged man with a yellow beard between them.
"Ah, it's Elder Miao from the Disciple Hall. This is the end. Luo Qing must have invited Elder Miao to come. It's terrible now. With Elder Miao, it's useless even if Big Sister wants to cheat in some way," Lei Hu should have expected there to be conflict in the women's dormitory.
***
Luo Qing was an outstanding female student in the outer court and had very good relationships with the elders of each hall.
She looked rough, but she was very meticulous and thoughtful.
Luo Qing knew that the exchange student was invited by the vice-director, who wasn't in the Martial Hall at the moment. But still if she just drove the female magician away, she would definitely be punished by the vice-director later.
So, she invited Elder Miao of the Discipline Hall for her sparring match with Yun Sheng, and had the news spread in the Martial Hall.HallH
As she expected, the news of her fight with the exchange student spread throughout the Martial Hall in no time, so the right people came, but also the wrong people.
The exchange students who came with Yun Sheng would also lose face this way and leave the Martial Hall the day they arrived of their own accord.
And with the fair and strict Elder Miao as the judge, Yun Sheng wouldn't dare to go back on her word.
Elder Miao had a calm expression. He coughed a few times when he saw the people around them becoming more and more excited, signaling them to be quiet.
"Quiet, tonight, Disciple Luo Qing invited this Elder to come preside over the spar between her and the new student Yun Sheng. The spar is to lift stone lions. No matter who is the winner or loser, both sides have to acknowledge the result, otherwise they will be punished by the Discipline Hall," Elder Miao didn't intend to preside over this kind of childish match, but he was also curious how the female magician of the Royal Magic Academy would compete with the best female warrior of the outer court.
As soon as Elder Miao's announcement finished, the surroundings were boiling.
Lifting Stone Lions? Luo Qing, who was know for being very strong, was actually challenged by a magician.
The female magician was also still under the influence of the magic lock.
Gosh, what had this world come to, a magician challenging a warrior in strength!
The sound of laughter and applause, like waves, rushed one after another over to Yun Sheng ruthless. Without exception, the warriors were all supporting Luo Qing, these cheers even spread outside the field.
Lei Hu and the others were also anxious. But seeing that Yun Sheng and Luo Qing were already moving towards the row of stone lions that the warriors use for weightlifting, they felt helpless.

At the northern end of the inner court, in a quiet courtyard, surrounded by darkness, two handsome men were sitting opposite each other, playing against each other in the darkness.
"Did you hear something?" Cheng Bai held a white chip between his fingers and paused.
His ears twitched slightly, as if hearing that the spar on the practice field was about to begin.
"Chess does not speak. You're good in everything, only your hearing not so much," a scythe-like douqi flashed in the dark, as Ye Beiming threw a black chess piece to hit the white piece in Cheng Bai's hand.
Cheng Bai was stunned for a moment, but immediately also sent out a piece covered with douqi like a firefly, with a wave of his hand.
Two chess pieces collied in the darkness.
Cheng Bai's chess piece broke into two halves.
The two of them seemed to be playing chess, but in fact this was a special kind of training. Each chess piece would be played with a battle technique. This was the best way for Ye Beiming and Cheng Bai to review their battle techniques.
Back and forth, all the pieces were destroyed, and a new round began.
The competition between Yun Sheng and Luo Qing had just begun!"
