I looked at this match with interest. Although I did not see her till now, I knew that she was going to be a part of the selection process. The two entered the arena, facing each other. This time, Cai Lien did not have a veil on, and this incensed the entire crowd. Every single man fell into disarray. Why wouldn't they be when they were looking at one of the most beautiful women ever.

"And you are betrothed to her. Your life is getting shorter by the moment." a voice inside me said.

I chuckled as I looked at what was happening. Yu Yutian was someone who could not hold a candle to even Hu Jin. All Cai Lien needed to do was sneeze and Yu Yutian would lose this match. But what I was looking at was not the match itself. My interest was towards the relations of everyone when they see that Cai Lien was in the Fifth layer of the Foundation Establishment stage. If they think that they cannot beat her, then they surely will not be able to beat me.

"Let the battle begin."

Swish!

Almost immediately, Cai Lien's figure disappeared. Yu Yutian looked around with confusion, raising his sword and trying to defend against what was coming. But he was not fast enough. I could see the sparkle of Cai Lien's sword as it struck Yu Yutian's chest. It was not enough to kill him, but he was going to be severely injured.

Blood flew out from where her sword struck him, and Yu Yutian fell on the ground. All the other disciples looked at Cai Lien with shock.

"She is in the fifth layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage? I can sense it!" one of the disciples exclaimed.

"How do they do that? I have the mind eye, but no one else is supposed to have that skill, are they?" I wondered as I looked at everyone. They were looking at Cai Lien with fear. And even I was surprised. The last time that I fought with her, I did not face this attack. Either she did not use her full power, or she grew so much more powerful in just a week! My money was on the former.

"Cai Lien wins." the old man said as he looked at her and nodded.

The elders up there started talking to each other as well. This fight clearly turned more heads than mine did. She was a true genius, and the cultivation realm meant a lot. So of course they would be interested in a disciple like her.

"Next..."

Cai Lien got off the arena and looked at me. I looked at her and nodded. She smiled, and took that as an invitation to approach me. She disappeared for an instant and reappeared in front of me.

"I trust that you have been well, Young master Feng," she said.

"What are you doing here? Look at all those killing gazes that those people are giving me. It is like you are trying to put a target on me. But you have already done that, didn't you. I asked you for something, but your Cai family has done something completely different. What the hell is that contract that you sent us? I got you out of the marriage that you didn't want to go to, and now you enter another one, with me? What goes on in your head?" I snarled at her.

But without even reacting, she sat next to me.

"This was something that my grandmother decided was best for me. And I trust her judgement. She sees something in you, and so do I. I have no idea when you changed so much, but this Liu Feng that I see before me is a different one. And I think that Bai Zhiqui was a fool to dissolve her own engagement.

The battles went on, but I got bored very easily. They were from different sects, but they had the exact same techniques. It was like they had to choose from the same handouts that the Sky Heaven's sect gave them. And some of these fights were so tragic. I did not know what being in a sect entailed, but some of these people had never been in a proper fight before. They had these rules while fighting and it was quite clear that they would not be able to survive any actual fight.

They had the same reservations that Liu Xin had that day when we fought. He expected me to face all of his attacks, and so did everyone here. I had no idea why they would hold onto these stupid, useless rules, but I guessed that was what made a sect a sect.

There were a total of fifty battles, and my eyes got drowsy looking at all of them. But now it was going to be my turn next. And I knew exactly who I was supposed to face. It was the person from the last battle. That was what made the most sense.

"Liu Feng, Cai Lien, enter the stage." the old man said.

"What? You want me to face her in the second round? What logic is this? How is this even remotely fair?" I was outraged. Why would they want the number one and two of the trial of talent to face each other in the second round?

"Wait. I want to see this at the end. Reverse the order, Seventh Elder. I want to see how things will go." Li Tian interjected. His voice was calm, but reached all of us from up there. He looked at me and winked.

"That guy, he creeps me out. On second thoughts, I would rather fight her now and reveal my trump cards than be in his debt." I changed my mind, but it was too late.

"Liu Feng and Jiang Ru, enter the stage." the Seventh Elder, the old man who was presiding over the matches, said.

Shaking my head, I got up from where I was seated and stretched my arms. I yawned and headed on over to the arena. My opponent was not that strong. One of the few girls of the group, she was already very popular.

She was but a second layer foundation establishment cultivator. It wasn't going to be hard at all.
