Sima You Lin was strong, this was an undoubted fact in Sima You Yue’s eyes. But as she witnessed the battle between Nalan Jie and him, she was still surprised that within two years he had improved tremendously. On the stage, Nalan Jie had been utterly knocked down by Sima You Lin’s spirit skill, which left him running. It was impossible for him to find the focus to show any of his spirit skills. But Sima You Lin was taking this leisurely, making his spirit energy into a large knife to chop away at Nalan Jie.
Whirlwind, come out!
Nalan Jie shouted out.
A divine beast with the same rank as a Spirit Paragon appeared at his side, and started attacking Sima You Lin immediately.
Sima You Lin quickly wielded his sword in defence, and at the same time, called out his spirit beast.
Another Spirit Paragon ranked divine beast!
everyone said, shocked as they looked at the stage.
Both of them own three divine beasts, isn’t that amazing? Their power is indeed great!
Although two of his spirit beasts had been defeated, Sima You Yue never thought that the Nalan family could be this strong. It looked like the battle between Nalan Jie and Sima You Lin would take quite a bit of time to end.
Previously when the younger generation were battling, each battle would end within an hour. But the two of them continued to duel for two whole hours. But Sima You Lin had a slight advantage in his spirit powers, and earned his difficult win.
Sima You Lin did not come down from the stage after his victory, but took a few alchemy pills before returning to his original seat and sat for a while, before he opened his eyes again and proclaimed,
Who would like to battle next?
That difficult battle exhausted his spirit energy, and the alchemy pills that he had eaten had helped him to recover a little, but once his recovery time was over, he would accept the next challenge.
Someone like Huo Zi Yan would not oblige, but many mediocre little brothers might just jump on this opportunity where his spirit animals are injured to battle with him. And if they won, they could say that they had once defeated him, so on and so forth. But someone from the Li family volunteered quickly, hoping to recover the Li family’s honour with this chance.
He was a Third Rank Spirit Overlord, and he was someone of significant skill. Originally he was hoping to jump on the chance that Sima You Lin might be exhausted to defeat him. But he had never thought that Sima You Lin’s powers would be this outstanding. Although he had just come out of a difficult battle, Sima You Lin had swiftly defeated his new opponent.
He took another pill, waited a little more, and continued on until he had lost, or given up.
The Sima family members who were watching Sima You Lin were getting worried. Although Wei Zi Qi and the rest felt that Sima You Lin would not be able to carry on for much longer, Sima You Yue was still calm.
Aren’t you worried?
Bei Gong Tang turned to ask.
What would I be worried for?
Sima You Yue asked.
If he can win, he’ll win; and if he can’t, he isn’t so silly to give his life for it. What’s there to be worried about?
You sure are positive.
Sima You Qing said.
Rather than being positive,
Sima You Yue said,
it is only in the face of real threat where you should start to worry for him, and for everything else, there’s no need to be overly concerned. Victories, reputation, all these things are of no real use, why do we have to tire ourselves over such things? You Lin is very clear about such things.
As the Sima family members listened to what she said, they felt uneasy, but continued to watch on as he fought.
The following matches proceeded very quickly. And as Sima You Lin wrapped up his tenth fight, he called for his matches to end.
You Lin won a total of ten times, and he qualifies to win the mysterious prize!
The Sima family cheered.
The other families were left in great shock.
Wasn’t he tired out after the first match? How could he continue to win another nine matches?
I guess he has the power to recover extremely quickly with the help of alchemy pills.
Someone noticed quickly.
That’s right. His ability to process pills seems quite great. It takes effect quickly, and he is able to use his powers again for each subsequent battle.
What kind of pill is this amazing?
How would I know? I’ve never seen it myself.
That day’s battles ended as Sima You Lin called for an end. There was still to be one more day of duels, and the last would be the second opportunity to challenge the Li family.
In the later few days Sima You Yue did not attend the competition, but stayed in the yard to train.
Master has already returned for close to ten days, yet there is no news.
She sat on her bed, hands cupping her head.
Senior Brother also has not appeared in these past few days, could he really have gone back up?
Is my Junior Brother thinking about me?
A voice came suddenly from the room, and scared her so much that she jumped off the bed.
When did you come into my room?
Sima You Yue looked at the man at her window, and she threw the pillow beside her at him. Wu Lingyu casually grabbed the pillow, and used it to prop his back up.
This is quite comfortable.
Where have you been these past few days?
Sima You Yue stared at him as she asked.
I went back up for a bit.
Wu Lingyu said.
I had to leave urgently, so I couldn’t tell you. So I came immediately to find you the moment I could return.
Did something happen?
Sima You Yue asked.
Did something happen to Master?
What could happen to that old man? You healed his internal wounds, and he went back after a huge fuss, but because he is not done settling your issue, he can’t come down for the time being.
Wu Lingyu said.
So why did you go back suddenly?
Wu Lingyu jumped off from the window, hugging the pillow, and leaned on Sima You Yue’s bed frame, saying,
That old man from the Sage Pavilion suddenly faced an issue, and called for me. After a few days of dealing with it I came back. Master told me to tell you to wait for a few more days.
Oh.
I’m really tired, I’ll rest here for a bit.
Wu Lingyu closed his eyes and… fell asleep just like that. Sima You Yue still had things to say, but looking at him, she moved her lips here and there, but held back her words.
Mo Sha came out from the devil’s snare bracelet, and looking at Wu Lingyu’s fatigued face, said,
His spirit energy has weakened, if he doesn’t recuperate his spirit energy at this time it will bode ill for him. Seems like something bad took place when he left. Please help him to make some pills that will help his spirit to recover.
Sima You Yue looked at Wu Lingyu’s pale face and replied,
Alright.
Mo Sha returned to the bracelet, and Sima You Yue sighed, and took out ingredients to make pills for him. The next day morning, Wu Lingyu woke up, and looked at Sima You Yue packing up her medical supplies. There was also a lighted stove in the house. With sleep still in his eyes, he asked,
You did some alchemy last night?
Mmhm.
Sima You Yue put everything back in the Spirit Pagoda, and took the pills out, saying,
Last night Mo Sha came out, and said that your spirit energy has suffered some damage. This pill has some condensed spirit energy put into it, it will help recuperate your own spirit energy.
Wu Lingyu took the still-warm pill, and felt a sweetness in his heart. If she would make pills for him, it means that he still has a place in her heart.
