She wanted to continue teasing him, but when she saw that Xiao ran had adjusted his expression and was unmoved, she lost interest and said,””Alright, alright, alright. Since brother Xiao ran wants to fight, I’ll play with you!”

With that, Murong Zhen snorted and dashed towards Xiao ran.

As soon as she moved, everyone in the audience, including Meng jueguang and Lin Yi, opened their eyes wide and carefully observed her strength.

Although she had been in the welcoming new pavilion for a month and was always the first person to appear in the newcomer challenge, the difference in strength was too great. Every newcomer who was called out to challenge her had tactfully taken the initiative to admit defeat, so no one had seen her fight in the past month.

But now, Xiao ran was different from the other newbies. As an early-stage Foundation establishment cultivator, although he felt the same pressure, it was not to the point where he was afraid to fight her.

With Xiao ran’s background, unless Murong Zhen was an invincible being at the peak of the early-stage Foundation establishment, it would not be easy for her to defeat Xiao ran even if she had the victory in her hands.

As soon as Murong Zhen moved, Xiao ran followed suit. Xiao ran had never liked to fight head-on with his opponent, especially since he had the Shadowstep. He would use the Shadowstep to deal with his opponent and then find an opportunity to attack. This was Xiao ran’s fighting style.

It was also this style that gave him the confidence to fight Murong Zhen, who was at the peak of the early stage of the foundation building realm. Otherwise, if it was someone like Qiao hongcai, who was used to fighting head-on, challenging someone of a higher level was almost equivalent to courting death.

“Yo, brother Xiao ran, you’re so good at body movement!” Murong Zhen’s eyes lit up again.

Due to her advantage in strength level, her speed was obviously faster than Xiao ran ‘s. In theory, Xiao ran couldn’t escape from her palm at all. However, in the limited space of the ring, Xiao ran made her unable to attack.

This was all thanks to the Shadowstep. Although the speed in a straight line might not be very fast, the dodging and moving in this small area was definitely second to none among all movement martial arts techniques.

Even so, Xiao ran did not dare to be careless. He had already used his Shadowstep to its maximum. However, he could only hold his ground against Murong Zhen at most. He could not lose, but he could not find an opportunity to attack.

After all, it was not easy to deal with an expert at the peak of the early-stage of the foundation building realm. The reason why Murong Zhen had been summoned to the rising Sky Pavilion was not only because of her relationship with elder Murong, but also because of her own strength. This woman was not just a pretty face but a useless flower vase.

Xiao ran had already anticipated this situation. If he could take the initiative by using the footstep Mirage alone, then his opponent was too weak. However, if this continued, the situation would not be in his favor.

The Shadowstep had an amazing effect, but it also consumed a large amount of true Qi. If this continued, Xiao ran knew that he would not be able to last longer than Murong Zhen.

Just as Xiao ran was about to take the risk and wait for an opportunity to strike, Murong Zhen, who was in hot pursuit, suddenly chuckled.””Brother Xiao ran, it’s said that a man chasing a woman is separated by a mountain, and a woman chasing a man is separated by a veil. I’ve been chasing you for so long, you should at least give me a response!”

Teasing! Teasing again!

Although Xiao ran didn’t want to pay attention to it, his Shadowstep slowed down subconsciously. Then, his heart turned cold and a murderous intent suddenly appeared behind him!

Xiao ran was already very careful. While he was using the Shadowstep to deal with Murong Zhen, he was constantly paying attention to his opponent’s position and movements. However, in that moment of distraction, a blinding light flashed across Murong Zhen’s fingertips. He was 50 feet away just a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, he was already behind Xiao ran.

Bang! Bang! While everyone was in a state of shock, Xiao ran fell directly out of the ring.

Lin Yi and the others quickly came forward and helped him up to check his injuries,”Are you alright? Are you badly injured?”

Before Xiao ran could say anything, Murong Zhen had already spoken on his behalf. He said in a tone that was half surprised and half regretful,””Of course he’s fine. You’re the first early-stage Foundation establishment cultivator to escape from my Phantom finger, Xiao ran. You should be proud of yourself!”

With the help of his senior brother and Qiao hongcai, Xiao ran slowly stood up, his face a little pale.””Many thanks for miss mu Rong’s advice. If there is an opportunity next time, I will definitely return it!”

He was sure that Murong Zhen didn’t hold back at all just now-she really wanted him dead! She’d made it sound so sweet, but she’d used the chance to distract him to kill him! This woman was just like what boss Lin Yi said-she had the heart of a snake!

If it was not for his natural alertness and constant vigilance, Murong Zhen would not have been able to Dodge the attack even with his Shadowstep. Moreover, he had made use of the edge of the ring to throw himself off the stage as a forfeit. Even if he had managed to Dodge the attack, Murong Zhen would have had a backup plan.

“Brother Xiao ran, you’re making me very scared. Why don’t you change your method and come to my little wooden house to play next time? I’m really looking forward to it!” Murong Zhen’s mesmerizing eyes were ogling at Xiao ran. His admiration for him was beyond words, as if he had never tried to kill Xiao ran.

She turned hostile faster than flipping a book. This woman was really outrageous!

Lin Yi and the others shook their heads speechlessly, getting to know Murong Zhen better-this woman wasn’t easy to deal with at all. She wasn’t any easier to deal with than the manager, Meng jueguang.

Seeing that Xiao ran was ignoring him, Murong Zhen had no choice but to give up on the idea of continuing to tease him. He said in a soft voice,””Brother Xiao ran, although I won, I’ll leave cave number three at the foot of the mountain for you to continue living in. Don’t forget to come to the small wooden house to play, I’m waiting for you.”

After he finished speaking, Murong Zhen sashayed down the stage under the greedy gazes of the crowd, swaying his alluring waist.

“Hong Cai, if I’m not wrong, this woman will definitely challenge you in the next round. Don’t try to be brave and admit defeat.” Lin Yi warned with a serious face.

“That’s right, this woman is indeed dangerous. Although I saw her move just now, I couldn’t react in time. I was lucky to be by the side of the ring today, otherwise I would probably be a corpse by now.” Xiao ran said with lingering fear.

In fact, Lin Yi had told him that he could give up before he went up the stage, but Xiao ran still wanted to test his strength, so he decided to play around with Murong Zhen, who was a rare opponent. As a result, the scene just now happened, and he would be killed if he was not careful.
