I Can Record Wonders

Chapter 199: Successful Promotion, Encounter with a Formidable Opponent

"Please excuse me~"

Fu Ning nodded slightly, clasped his fists in a salute, and the opponent Guo Zhun seemed to still be recovering from his defeat.

It wasn't until the young host reminded him that he came back to his senses and sighed deeply, "I lost fairly."

After saying that, he changed his salute and turned to leave the stage.

"Senior Brother Guo... actually... lost?!"

"How did that Red Mountain junior, Fu Ning, manage to hit the 'Ghost Hand'? Was it a coincidence?"

"All three strikes hit, if it was a coincidence, it's... too unbelievable."

Fu Ning's victory in the competition couldn't be considered extraordinary, but it was a significant improvement from his previous weak and useless image.

After a brief sensation, the competition continued.

The following matches didn't have much fluctuation.

The strong remained strong, with A Nuo, He Qiang, Wu Shu, and Wu Chou all easily advancing.

Soon, the first round was completed, with 38 winners out of the 77 participants, plus Yun Niang, who drew number 77 at the beginning, making a total of 39 people.

These 39 people continued to the next round.

Just like the first round, it was still a one-on-one competition.

At this point, the disciples' information appeared on the copper pages held by the 39 participants.

Fu Ning's opponent in this round was a formidable rival, Nan Kai Xiu, one of the Five Beauties of White Mountain.

This Senior Sister Nan, as her name suggests, is beautiful, with a well-proportioned figure. She is a few years older than Fu Ning and has been practicing on the mountain for over six years. Her specialty is the 'Lotus Palm' of White Mountain.

During the first round of the competition, Fu Ning had watched her match.

Her 'Lotus Palm' had both offense and defense, and she seemed to have a special footwork. Whether attacking or defending, she was able to handle it with ease.

Fu Ning put away the copper page and couldn't help but ponder: This Senior Sister Nan won't be easy to deal with.

Actually, if he didn't hold back, it wouldn't be difficult to defeat Senior Sister Nan.

But now it was the internal competition, and he couldn't fully display his abilities.

He could only rely on the several Origin Spirits from Spirit Turtle Island.

While he was contemplating how to deal with it, the second round of the competition had officially begun.

The first match was still won by Gong Bu Wei, the number one disciple of Red Mountain.

His opponent was a disciple from White Mountain.

Just like the previous match, he easily defeated his opponent in three rounds.

It seemed that these three rounds had given the opponent enough face.

After all, he was the number one disciple of Red Mountain.

The second match was Zhao Lu, who had fought against Senior Brother Zhou Ye before.

Although Zhao Lu was a disciple of Black Mountain, he followed a fierce path.

He had once competed with Senior Brother Zhou Ye on Ao Tou Island, wielding a large spear with powerful and unpredictable Ghost Dao variations.

The spear moves were elusive and hard to defend against.

The Red Mountain disciple he faced lasted less than ten rounds before hurriedly falling off the stage.

The third and fourth matches were both internal fights among White Mountain disciples.

After all, White Mountain had the most participants in the competition, so it was inevitable to encounter such a situation.

Perhaps because they were too familiar with each other, both matches ended quickly and had results soon.

After four matches, it was finally Fu Ning's turn to face Nan Kai Xiu.

After the two of them stepped onto the stage, they both saluted each other.

"There shouldn't be any surprises in this match."

"Senior Sister Nan is one of the Five Beauties of White Mountain, and her 'Lotus Palm' is rarely matched on White Mountain. That Red Mountain junior, although his palm technique is decent, he's a bit lacking compared to Senior Sister Nan."

At this moment, there were countless disciples on the Sword Testing Platform.

Although the disciples couldn't personally participate, they would still discuss and comment on each match.

Fu Ning didn't pay much attention to this because all his focus was on his opponent.

On the other side, Nankai Xiu, who stood opposite him, also didn't rush to make a move. She was also sizing up her opponent.

Is he Fu Ning?

Apart from looking more delicate, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly remarkable about him.

As one of the Five Beauties of White Mountain, Nankai Xiu naturally had a good relationship with Shen Bijun.

She noticed that ever since they came out of the Secret Realm, Shen Bijun had often been absent-minded.

Nankai Xiu was a few years older than Shen Bijun, and girls matured earlier. Seeing Shen Bijun's appearance now, she had some guesses in her heart.

So, under her probing, she finally learned about what happened in the Secret Realm from Shen Bijun's account.

And in Shen Bijun's narration, the name "Fu Ning" appeared multiple times.

Nankai Xiu thought that Shen Bijun's changes were probably related to this Fu Ning.

Now she happened to be facing this kid, so she decided to test his strength.

Thinking of this, Nankai Xiu couldn't help but make the first move.

But before making a move, she reminded him, "Junior brother, be careful~"

Before her words fell, she had already taken a step forward.

At the same time, a "Hibiscus Palm" followed closely.

Swoosh~

The lotus leaves fluttered, and the palm force of the "Hibiscus Palm" swayed like lotus leaves in the wind.

Bang!

With a palm strike, the phantom of the "Pure Hibiscus" covered more than half of the arena.

Fu Ning's perception ability far surpassed ordinary people, so he knew the power of this palm strike. However, he didn't panic. He just shifted his foot and twisted his body, also striking towards his opponent.

This palm strike also had magnificent palm force, rippling like waves, gradually meeting the opponent's attack head-on.

Bang!

The two palms collided, and the palm force exploded in the middle.

At this moment, someone in the audience exclaimed, "This is... the Hibiscus Palm! Both of them are using the Hibiscus Palm!"

This statement immediately caused everyone to echo, "No wonder their palm forces are so similar. It turns out they are using the same palm technique."

"Nan Senior Sister using the 'Hibiscus Palm' is naturally understandable, but how can that junior brother Fu Ning also use the 'Hibiscus Palm'?"

At this moment, a disciple of White Mountain suddenly brightened up, "I remember now. Junior brother Fu had once visited White Mountain to observe the wonders. He must have had an epiphany then."

"What?! Junior brother not only had an epiphany at Red Mountain's wonders but also at White Mountain's wonders?!"

"He truly deserves the title of genius."

After all, Fu Ning still carried the title of a genius who had observed the wonders four times and successfully had epiphanies.

So, at this moment, it didn't arouse suspicion from others.

At the same time, on the high platform at the top of the Sword Testing Platform, three Scenic Masters were silently observing the competition.

"Hmm, this kid is truly talented. He even had an epiphany at White Mountain's wonders?"

Black Feather Scenic Master was not only curious about how Fu Ning had an epiphany at White Mountain's wonders but also curious about how he gained White Lotus's recognition.

Thinking of this, he secretly glanced at the nearby "White Lotus Scenic Master."

He saw her cold gaze, expressionless face, and the same demeanor as before, and couldn't help but smile inwardly. White Lotus Senior Sister is still as aloof as ever.

Little did he know that this White Lotus was not the same as the previous one, and "Xuan Twenty-Nine" was panicking inside.

But at this moment, Red Sun Scenic Master on the other side spoke up.

"This kid has a damaged foundation. I suppose it's because he couldn't open the Scenic Palace before, so he thought of having epiphanies in several wonders."

"I see."
