"So it really is Asura. I thought it was just a rumor."

"I wonder which two Spirit Ancestors are brave enough to challenge Asura. Didn't they hear about the battle a few days ago, where he defeated a level 48 Spirit Ancestor as a Spirit Elder?"

"But the girl next to Asura… she's so beautiful and elegant. I'm in love!"

"Brothers, I'm serious this time. I really like her!"

"Hah! That's what you said about the girl who went on stage last time."

Flender, seeing that the host didn't introduce him first, clenched his fists in jealousy.

"I never expected his reputation to be so widespread here. He's only gained this fame by stepping on us," Flender thought bitterly, his anger simmering beneath the surface.

"Blind guy, you're really something. All this applause is for you. I can't help but feel envious," Bibi Dong whispered softly to Lin Yongming, her voice tinged with admiration.

"You flatter me, Holy Maiden. If you revealed your identity as the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, you'd receive even greater enthusiasm from the crowd," Lin Yongming replied with a slight shake of his head.

As time passed, the cheers grew louder. At first, Lin Yongming had felt a flicker of joy, but now he was accustomed to it. His emotions remained calm and steady, unaffected by the crowd's adoration. He had come to understand that, beyond improving his combat skills, learning to control and conceal his emotions was also a form of cultivation.

"I told you to call me Bibi Dong when we're outside," Bibi Dong said, slightly annoyed at being addressed as Holy Maiden again.

"Besides, I was just surprised by the audience's enthusiasm. I'd never reveal my identity here. You're using a fake name too, aren't you?"

Lin Yongming chuckled awkwardly. "You're right. I'll get used to it."

Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow. "I don't believe you. Say my name properly."

Lin Yongming sighed softly and obliged. "Bibi Dong."

"See? That wasn't so hard," Bibi Dong said with a satisfied nod.

"Wow! It seems Asura's arrival has really fired you all up. I'm almost jealous," the host joked.

"Alright, enough chit-chat. Let's welcome Asura's opponents for this match: Cat Owl and Zhao Wuji!"

As the host announced their names, Flender, with a grim expression, led Zhao Wuji onto the stage. They stood at the opposite edge of the arena, facing Lin Yongming.

"So it's them. I should've known. They're the ones Asura defeated when he first arrived at the Suoto Great Spirit Arena," one of the long-time spectators remarked.

"Both sides are now on stage. If I recall correctly, these two were Asura's first and second opponents when he debuted here."

"However, this is a Spirit Ancestor-level match, which means both have reached that level. It seems they're here for revenge. Will they succeed? Let's find out!"

"I declare the Spirit Ancestor two-on-two battle… begin!" the host announced, concluding his introduction.

"Asura, let me show you the results of my year-long training. All of it was for this moment—to defeat you," Flender said with a sly grin, adjusting his glasses.

"Cat Owl Spirit, manifest!" Flender's spirit erupted, and four spirit rings rose from his feet—two yellow and two purple, the optimal configuration.

Next, Zhao Wuji activated his spirit. With an additional thousand-year spirit ring, his body grew even larger, his muscles more pronounced. His spirit rings were also two yellow and two purple.

"Two level 41 Spirit Ancestors. Blind guy, remember, I'm taking on Four-Eyes," Bibi Dong said with a light laugh.

"I don't mind," Lin Yongming replied calmly, summoning his Thunder Blade spirit.

"Good." Bibi Dong nodded, then turned to Flender. "Four-Eyes, I know you want to fight Asura, but I told you I'd smash your glasses. So, your opponent is me."

"Death Spider Emperor, manifest!" Bibi Dong's spirit erupted, and her body was enveloped in a dark purple armor-like exoskeleton. Her spirit rings appeared, revealing her level—41, with two yellow and two purple rings.

"You're a Spirit Ancestor too?!" Flender exclaimed in shock. He had dismissed Bibi Dong's earlier words as arrogance, but now he realized she was just as strong as he was. The fact that she was younger than him made it even more astonishing.

"Hmph! Don't think talent alone will save you. Fine, I'll take you down first, then deal with Asura," Flender said, rising into the air. His first spirit ring glowed as he activated his first spirit skill.

"Zhao Wuji, keep Asura busy. I'll handle this girl first."

"Eagle Strikes the Sky!" Flender shot toward Bibi Dong like an arrow.

"Bring it on!" Bibi Dong charged forward to meet him.

"First Spirit Skill: Death's Edge!"

The two clashed in mid-air, their attacks evenly matched for the moment.

"Asura, you've reached level 37, but I'm a level 41 Spirit Ancestor now. Let's see if you can break through my defense," Zhao Wuji said, activating his first spirit skill.

"First Spirit Skill: Immovable Vajra Body!" Zhao Wuji's body glowed as he charged forward.

"We'll see about that."

"Wave Blade!" Lin Yongming dashed forward with his Thunder Blade. Before Zhao Wuji could cover much ground, Lin Yongming was already in front of him, slashing down.

The blade struck Zhao Wuji's shoulder, but it only tore a small hole in his clothes.

"Your speed is still impressive, but this level of attack won't hurt me," Zhao Wuji said, throwing a powerful punch toward Lin Yongming.

Lin Yongming dodged effortlessly, reappearing behind Zhao Wuji for another strike. Once again, the attack failed to penetrate Zhao Wuji's defense.

Zhao Wuji spun around, swinging his fist again. Lin Yongming stepped back and said, "Your defense has improved. Your punches and palm strikes carry a strong force. Your strength has grown too."

"Of course. But your speed has also increased. It seems I can't hold back anymore," Zhao Wuji said, activating his third spirit ring.

"Third Spirit Skill: Gravity Increase!"

Immediately after, his second spirit ring lit up. "Second Spirit Skill: Great Strength Vajra Palm!"

As Zhao Wuji's skills took effect, Lin Yongming felt the familiar pressure return.

"Asura Thunderlight Slash!"
