Chapter 140: The Prefecture Compet.i.tion Begins“Qianxue, you"ve finally come out. I thought that you were trying to hatch your eggs in there!” Lou Xiaoxiao, who had been waiting for a while, welcomed Lou Qianxue.
Lou Xiaoxiao was dressed in a powerful red dress, with a high ponytail that reached down to her hip. She looked gentle, but also strong and heroic.
Leng Qianhan stood at the side with the scimitar behind his back like a loyal guard.
“Mm? You have reached the ninth level of the Spiritual realm? Congratulations on the breakthrough!” With the memory of the G.o.d of War, Lou Qianxue could discern Lou Xiaoxiao"s skill level with one Glance.
The compliment pleased Lou Xiaoxiao. “Yes, I"m the talented Lou Xiaoxiao. *Cough!* Of course, the techniques that you gave me are very impressive.”
Lou Qianxue smiled. “Where"s Grandpa? Let"s go to the prefecture compet.i.tion.”
“Old City Lord has left with the others. I waited here in case you forgot to attend as you had done in the previous selection compet.i.tion. Let"s go and pick a good seat now.”
As they walked to their destination, Lou Xiaoxiao suddenly looked at Lou Qianxue and asked. “So you have been cultivating in the past few days as well. How was it? Have you improved?”
Lou Qianxue uttered a soft a.s.sent. “Yes, there have been some improvements.”
“Really? What"s your cultivation now?” As she asked this, Lou Xiaoxiao felt a little sad. Lou Qianxue could see her skill level with one look, yet she couldn"t decipher Lou Qianxue"s.
“A little lower than you. Eighth level of the Spiritual realm.” After she had learned the Mystic Frost Sword Technique, Lou Qianxue"s cultivation had leveled up.
Lou Xiaoxiao stopped in her tracks and widened her eyes in shock. “What did you say?
“Eighth Level of the Spiritual realm? You"re lying, right?”
Lou Xiaoxiao was going crazy. “How long have you practiced for? A month! And you… Gosh! This is unbelievable. You…”
Leng Qianhan who was following the two of them was equally shocked as he stared at Lou Qianxue.
Lou Xiaoxiao took a few deep breaths and forced herself to calm down. She then shook her head. “In the future, please don"t tell others that you have only trained for a month.”
As the saying that went like "A commoner"s crime is to carry a piece of jade", Lou Xiaoxiao had guessed that Lou Qianxue had some treasure to rely on, and she became afraid that others would target Lou Qianxue if they realized it as well.
“I know. Don"t worry! I can protect myself well.” Lou Qianxue felt warm at Lou Xiaxiao"s concern. She then held her hand and said, “Let"s go now. We will be late otherwise.”
The decennial prefecture compet.i.tion was a very big event in the entire Liuyun Prefecture.
Today, the Governor of the Liuyun Prefecture as well as representatives of several great powers would come to watch the compet.i.tion.
When Lou Qianxue and Lou Xiaoxiao arrived at the venue, the venue was already very packed. Thankfully, contestants and those with special statuses had been allocated seats. Thus, Lou Qianxue"s group did not have to squeeze in the crowd.
Seeing Lou Qianxue, a few young men came over to lead the way.
All of them had attended the gathering at Baicao Garden.
The youngsters who had attended the banquet at Baicao Garden were either talented or people of special status.
Naturally, they were not one to gossip about. Therefore, the incident in the garden was not known by the public.
Therefore, the public of the Lou Qianxue still saw Lou Qianxue as a girl who relied on Leng Qianhan to be arrogant.
An Shaoning eventually grasped the role to usher Lou Qianxue.
An Shaoning and An Zhenhua were standing together, and An Shaoning spoke in a grandiose manner, “Zhenhua and Miss Lou are both contestants. There is no better arrangement than having Zhenhua usher Miss Lou to her seat.”
The young masters of the other three major families could only blame themselves for not considering this. They could only watch as An Shaoning and An Zhenhua led Lou Qianxue away.
