On the arena.
Xiao ShuiRun, who was confident of victory, no longer held back.
The half-step Great Martial Master Realm power she contained within her suddenly burst out like a wild horse breaking free!
"Boom!"
The power of a half-step Great Martial Master shook the arena, built for the martial arts competition, making it rumble loudly.
"Wang Qingwan, you are destined to lose this arena competition!"
"This spirit mine will have nothing to do with your Wang Family!"
Xiao ShuiRun's beautiful eyes were filled with determination.
She had kept the news of her promotion to half-step Great Martial Master a secret.
The purpose was to make Wang Qingwan, who was in the Martial Master Realm, agree to the competition without suspicion.
Then, she would defeat Wang Qingwan in an unexpected way and seize the spirit mine!
Now!
In Xiao ShuiRun's view, she had already succeeded!
As for the various forces watching from below the arena, they were greatly shocked!
They never expected that Xiao ShuiRun of the Xiao Family had reached the half-step Great Martial Master Realm!
"Xiao ShuiRun has advanced to the half-step Great Martial Master Realm! She hid it so well!"
"Not good! Wang Qingwan is probably going to lose the spirit mine."
"There's a world of difference between a Martial Master and a Great Martial Master, even a half-step Great Martial Master can easily defeat a Martial Master Realm practitioner."
"..."
For a moment.
All the forces watching in the arena were, without exception, astonished.
Xiao ShuiRun truly gave them a great shock!
What about Wang Qingwan?
She showed no emotional fluctuations whatsoever!
Xiao ShuiRun's half-step Great Martial Master was indeed very powerful!
But she was no longer what she used to be.
With the help of her husband, she had taken a Third Grade Divine Martial Pill and successfully advanced to the first stage of the Great Martial Master Realm!
One move was enough to deal with Xiao ShuiRun in front of her!
"Wang Qingwan, will you get off the stage yourself, or shall I send you down?"
Xiao ShuiRun said coldly, her tone aggressive.
"That's what I should be saying to you!"
Saying that, Wang Qingwan no longer held back, and the power of her Great Martial Master Realm first stage instantly unleashed!
"Rumble!!!"
In an instant.
The arena rumbled loudly.
Those with insufficient strength who were watching close to the arena were even shaken, spitting blood and retreating dozens of feet away.
"What? This is the Great Martial Master Realm!"
"You actually hid something too!"
Xiao ShuiRun immediately exclaimed in surprise.
Xiao ShuiRun, who had originally thought victory was assured, now felt waves of despair surging within her!
Her half-step Great Martial Master was simply insignificant in front of Wang Qingwan's true Great Martial Master!
In front of her, Xiao ShuiRun had no power to retaliate whatsoever!
All the members of the Xiao Family showed worried and desperate expressions.
Wang Qingwan had the formidable strength of a Great Martial Master Realm first stage!
How could their Clan Chief fight?
Any clear-headed person could see that she simply couldn't win!
"Damn it!"
"This Wang Family Clan Chief actually hid her strength too!"
Xiao Chen stomped his foot in anger.
If this was the case, the Xiao Family would miss out on the spirit mine.
The forces who had been watching were stunned and wide-eyed when they saw the Wang Family Clan Chief reach the Great Martial Master Realm!
After all!
Wu Tan City had not seen the birth of a Great Martial Master Realm practitioner for hundreds of years!
Now, Wang Qingwan was a Great Martial Master Realm practitioner, which made them incredibly shocked.
"Wang Qingwan has been in the Martial Master Realm for many years, and she only recently married Lord Liu, yet she has already advanced to the Great Martial Master Realm. Lord Liu must have helped her in this!"
Some people roughly guessed the reason.
And they cast admiring and respectful gazes towards Alchemist Liu Feng.
Liu Feng smiled slightly!
With his current ability as a Third Grade Alchemist, he could Cultivate many, many Great Martial Masters.
As long as he wanted, he could do it anytime!
"Madam, make your move!"
"Let Madam Xiao and everyone present witness the might of a Great Martial Master!"
Liu Feng called out to his Madam.
Upon hearing this.
Wang Qingwan nodded her head slightly.
And then.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, she released the powerful pressure within her, crushing it towards Xiao ShuiRun.
"Pfft!"
Lo and behold!
Xiao ShuiRun, a half-step Great Martial Master, couldn't even withstand a single wave of pressure from Wang Qingwan, and was shaken, spitting blood, her delicate body flying off the arena.
"Thud!"
Finally, she fell heavily to the ground.
The forces watching the arena competition were greatly astonished, constantly exclaiming.
"My goodness! Xiao ShuiRun couldn't even withstand a single wave of pressure from Wang Qingwan, is this what a Great Martial Master is like?"
"Too strong! A Great Martial Master is truly too strong!"
"A half-step Great Martial Master couldn't withstand a single wave of pressure from a Great Martial Master, I've seen something new today!"
"It was worth the trip! Clan Chief Wang is truly amazing!"
"That's right! From now on, we must all rely more on Lord Liu and Clan Chief Wang!"
"..."
Many forces secretly made up their minds to curry favor with Lord Liu and Clan Chief Wang in the future.
Meanwhile, Liu Feng, with a smile on his face, came to Xiao ShuiRun's side and helped her up.
"Oh dear, oh dear~"
"Madam!"
"You were a bit too heavy-handed, weren't you?"
"You actually beat Madam Xiao into such a state!"
Alchemist Liu Feng said with a gentlemanly, refined, and polite demeanor.
At the same time, as he helped Xiao ShuiRun up, he secretly sized her up.
This Xiao ShuiRun, whether in terms of figure, appearance, or temperament, was not inferior to his own Madam.
Even though she was over a hundred years older than him, she was still so alluring.
"Stop being so hypocritical here!"
"This Clan Chief doesn't need your help!"
"Hmph!"
Xiao ShuiRun broke free from Liu Feng's embrace and said coldly.
Today, not only did she lose, but she also lost the spirit mine that carried the Xiao Family's hope of rising, how could Xiao ShuiRun be in a good mood?
"Mother, are you alright?"
The Child of Destiny, Xiao Chen, stepped forward and asked with concern.
"Xiao Chen, Mother is fine."
"It's just that Mother lost."
"The spirit mine belongs to the Wang Family now!"
"Mother can't give you better Cultivation resources!"
Xiao ShuiRun's beautiful face was filled with deep self-blame.
The Xiao Family members who had come all lowered their heads in despair and helplessness. Originally, with the help of Alchemist Liu Feng, the Wang Family's various industries already crushed the Xiao Family.
Now, even the Xiao Family's last shred of hope for a rise, the spirit mine, was gone!
This made everyone in the Xiao Family downcast.
"Liu Feng!"
"You just wait for me!"
"One day, I, Xiao Chen, will surely make you pay the price for helping the Wang Family!"
The angry Xiao Chen, in front of everyone, pointed his finger furiously at Liu Feng and threatened loudly.
"Heh heh."
"This Lord would like to see what kind of price you, the famous Xiao Family good-for-nothing, can make this Lord pay in the future."
Liu Feng said with a disdainful smile.
As a villain Alchemist!
He had the System's help, what was there to fear from a Child of Destiny?
If it weren't for the fact that he still had plans and Xiao Chen was currently somewhat useful.
He would have long since slapped this Xiao Chen to death!
"Slap!"
Just then!
A figure with a powerful aura appeared in front of Xiao Chen, raising her hand and giving him a heavy slap!
"You good-for-nothing!"
"You really have some nerve!"
"How dare you threaten my husband!"
Wang Qingwan, who was very protective of her husband, said coldly, her jade face stern.
