Chapter 1888: Rematch
After Clara and the Mystic Ice Sect disciple moved, everyone else who was not battling but got stuck in an empty room also moved. They wondered what could be the trigger and arrived at the conclusion that only after everyone made the first move and finished their battles did the spatial formation allow them to move through the doors again.
The crowd saw that it was the case as the Mystic Ice Sect disciple was the last to finish her battle, but the competitors inside had little to no way to verify.
Unfortunately, like the Mystic Ice Sect disciple who ousted herself, a Burning Phoenix Ridge disciple who was in the first row, second column room simultaneously ousted herself.
However, she had eliminated herself after the Mystic Ice Sect disciple, making it so that her rank got designated as ninth while the Mystic Ice Sect disciple's rank was tenth.
Hayou Azureclaw, on the other hand, was not even in the Top 10 as his rank was twelfth.
Within this first move of the third round, seven people were eliminated.
It was no longer funny for the crowd as strong geniuses ousting themselves or getting matched with the wrong opponent, ending up in their unfair loss, although some did seem to take joy in their misery.
Another Burning Phoenix Ridge disciple who was at the edge, in the fifth row, first column room escaped elimination by choosing to go below instead of moving straight. However, the spatial bubble she was in ended up locking again, causing her to have no choice but to wait for the doors to turn green.
Tanya moved straight and ended up in the third row, third column room where it was empty. On the other hand, Drake, who was in the second row, fourth column spatial bubble, knew that there was someone was above him, perhaps two, as the young man he saw reacted as though he saw an opponent towards the left before the door closed.
However, instead of taking the route above, he chose to move forward, ending up in the third row, fourth column, whereupon the spatial bubble became locked. However, he knew that the chances are that the person who had emerged as the victor above him might've left the room but could possibly choose to take the route towards his location, unaware he was there lying await.
On the other hand, Logan moved further up, encountering no one but arriving at the location where Drake was first summoned, in the first row, fourth column room. Consequently, his room also ended up getting locked.
In the third row, second column room, Mu Bing awaited her opponent. In her view, it should be Niera who probably won, but even if it is Kara Moonridge, she was fine, eagerly awaiting her opponent. However, even after waiting for some time, no one entered her room, making her narrow her eyes.
'No one's coming. Did they leave in another direction, or do they not want to battle me? Could it be that they are injured?'
Numerous thoughts flashed past her head. In the end, she simply turned around, deciding to leave in another direction.
'I don't want to fight an injured opponent…'
Thinking like this, she looked around, trying to decide which room to enter.
The people were exhilarated at this moment to see Mu Bing choose. Underneath Mu Bing was an icy-sword menace, and above her was a fiery-armament menace awaiting her as they had already made their second move. The crowd was exhilarated to see what door Mu Bing was going to choose and wished that it wasn't the room straight ahead because it was empty.
Mu Bing looked straight, wondering if she should just move ahead. However, she looked down but then headed up, unaware if there was anyone there or it could possibly be the outside. She raised her head up and waved her hands, pushing open the door with her ice energy, abruptly noticing a white-robed figure looking at her.
Mu Bing's lips curved into a smile while the other party appeared the same, opening their mouth.
"If this isn't fate, then what is it, Mu Bing?"
"Sophie, I too think the same. Perhaps, it is fate's way of saying that you can have another chance to prove yourself."
"That's right." Sophie retreated back, her footsteps leaving a fiery trail that made her appear flamboyant while Mu Bing floated towards the other side, her footsteps leaving an icy trail that made her seem calm and composed.
"This time, I'll accomplish what I was unable to do before, win against you."
Sophie uttered as she watched Mu Bing closely before she narrowed her eyes, not finding any kind of injuries.
"By the way, why did you take so long to arrive?" She couldn't help but ask.
"I was waiting for Niera or Kara Moonridge to enter from the room towards this side while I was below, but she didn't appear."
Mu Bing pointed towards a direction as she didn't hesitate to answer, causing Sophie's eyes to widen.
"Oh, my sister is close as we were meant to be…!"
"Is Niera your blood sister?" Mu Bing narrowed her icy blue brows, "I heard-"
"We're tied to the same man, and that makes us sisters."
"Interesting~"
Mu Bing melodiously echoed as her icy domain burst into existence, making her dark blue hair sway with the icy aurora that emerged around her figure, making her look vastly beautiful, even sexy while wearing an icy-blue veil.
"I, from an all-female sect, could understand little to nothing about your sisterhood that formed in a different shape."
Sophie couldn't help but giggle before her lips widened.
"I know we see the Dual Lotus Manor with skewed eyes for the dubious actions they commit, but remaining celibate till death that your Mystic Ice Sect follows is a foolish thing to do and taking away little girls from their parents to supplement the steady growth of the sect is another evil thing to do."
"We don't do that, and those are baseless rumors." Mu Bing's eyes narrowed, "We do marry, but the disciple or the elder has to quit the sect first, so the sect doesn't end up being tainted."
"I think those are rumors too but then who are you, Mu Bing? Did you come into this world without a father?"
"Enough. We're here to battle, not share our past."
Mu Bing's voice became solemn, causing Sophie to blink.
"You said that you couldn't understand my sisterhood with Niera, and that's why I asked, wanting to make you understand. I didn't speak to demean your sect, so it's alright if you don't want to answer, Mu Bing. I apologize for being insensitive."
Mu Bing looked closely at Sophie before she nodded, seemingly accepting her apology.
Sophie surged with intense flames as a fiery domain erupted from her. If she took a step forward, it would start intersecting with Mu Bing's domain, and that's how accurate they were in aligning themselves before the start of the battle as though they were having a formal battle.
Countless armaments began to appear around Sophie, but all of them were weapons like spears, lances, arrows, swords, types that heavily concentrated on speed and piercing power.
"With my current power, what I need is to beat you is extreme speed."
"If you think that your attack can cross my Ice Smiting Aurora with speed alone, then bring it on."
Mu Bing's voice echoed calmly, bringing it with a heat of pressure on Sophie, who already had the experience of losing once. However…
"I'll swear I'll win this time!"
As though declaring to the entire world or perhaps someone special, Sophie took a step forward and bellowed, launching the Thousand Armament Flame Rain Technique against Mu Bing; the sharp and piercing armaments shot through the void with a blinding speed, leaving behind an enormous amount of fiery trail in their wake!
