The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 427: Chapter 426: Good Fortune

After Yiyi returned to her seat, Guo Ming praised her, ”Well done, this time your moves were very swift and without any unnecessary actions, very good.”

Hearing her mentor’s words, Yiyi smiled and said, ”Thank you for the compliment, Master, I’ll continue to work hard.”

”Good, good, I always knew you could do it.”

Guo Ming was naturally very happy when his disciple won the match.

On the other side, Wen Tao returned to her seat looking a bit dejected.

Seeing his daughter’s expression, Wen Hong’an couldn’t help but comfort her, ”Don’t feel disheartened. I watched your match, and Ding Yiyi’s skills are much better than yours, so it’s normal that you lost. If you really feel unwilling, you can practice your martial arts well, and you’ll have the chance to challenge her again in the future.”

Hearing her father’s words, Wen Tao felt slightly better and nodded determinedly, saying, ”You’re right, I will keep practicing diligently, and next time I will definitely beat her.”

Seeing his daughter’s renewed spirit, Wen Hong’an smiled and nodded, saying, ”It’s good that you think that way.”

Nine Number Group’s match started, so the father and daughter stopped talking and quietly watched the competition.

When it was Group Twelve’s turn, Yiyi noticed one of them was Wu Xiu’s disciple, Feng Yingjie. Seeing him, she watched even more intently. Meanwhile, Guo Ming said, ”Yiyi, take a good look at Feng Yingjie’s moves. If you ever face him, you’ll have experience to handle it.”

Yiyi naturally watched carefully and discovered that Feng Yingjie’s martial arts were indeed impressive. Less than ten minutes into the fight, he won.

”This Feng Yingjie is indeed strong, a formidable opponent.”

After watching this group’s match, Guo Ming couldn’t help but sigh.

Sitting on the other side, Wu Xiu was full of smiles, accepting compliments from those around him. When his young disciple came down, he happily patted him on the shoulder, saying, ”Yingjie, you performed well just now.” He even glanced in Yiyi’s direction, smiling at Guo Ming in the end.

Seeing Wu Xiu’s actions, Guo Ming couldn’t help but frown, his expression somewhat sour, as he turned to Yiyi and said, ”If you face Feng Yingjie in the finals, go all out, that old scoundrel was blatantly provoking us earlier.”

Seeing her mentor angry, Yiyi couldn’t help but smile, then quickly assured him, ”Don’t worry, Master, I will give it my all.”

Upon hearing his disciple’s words, Guo Ming added,

”But also remember what I told you before, your own safety comes first.”

”Master, I understand.”

Seeing his disciple’s calm demeanor, Guo Ming said no more and continued to watch the matches.

Soon it was Xie Yuanzhou’s turn, and sure enough, Xie Yuanzhou won.

After all 25 groups had finished, the winners moved on to the finals. The organizer walked to the stage again and said, ”All winners, come forward to draw lots again. This time one person will have a bye; luck is also a kind of strength, so the person who gets a bye will directly win, while the others will compete tomorrow.”

Hearing this, the winners went forward to draw lots, Yiyi among them. Unexpectedly, she was lucky enough to get a bye.

”Ding Yiyi will proceed to the next round directly.”

The organizer announced loudly, and then dismissed everyone to allow the participants to rest well.

At this moment, Guo Ming’s mouth curled up with joy, ”Yiyi, you have good luck, moving to the next round without competing, not bad, truly worthy of being my disciple.”

Seeing her mentor so happy, Yiyi couldn’t help but smile.

Then, Xie Yongchao approached with his two sons, also congratulating on the side, ”Brother Guo, congratulations to you.”

”The same to you all, Yuan Zhou’s performance was excellent, entering the finals directly. Keep it steady tomorrow, and there should be no problem.”

Hearing this, Xie Yongchao cupped his hands and said, ”Thanks for your good words, Brother Guo.”

”Some people’s luck is just good, entering the finals without competing; as they say, having a pretty young disciple really saves worry in all aspects.”

Hearing this, Guo Ming couldn’t help looking at the person, recognizing Wu Xiu, and couldn’t help frowning, saying, ”Master Wu, what do you mean by that?”

”Master Guo, don’t misunderstand, I’m just enviously admiring you; unlike my young disciple, who has bad luck again, drawing a strong opponent. Who knows if he can win in the end, unlike your young disciple, who directly enters the finals.”

Although Wu Xiu said this, Guo Ming detected sarcasm in his words.

And what did he mean by ’strong opponent’? Was he implying that Yiyi’s first opponent, Wen Tao, was weak, and that’s why Yiyi could luckily enter the finals?

Thinking of this, Guo Ming felt anger rising in his chest and directly snorted coldly, saying, ”As they said earlier, luck is also a kind of strength. This only shows that your young disciple isn’t that capable.”

”You...”

Wu Xiu was choked with anger, extremely mad.

”Master, let’s go eat, I’m hungry.”

In the end, it was Feng Yingjie who broke the ice, pulling his master away.

”Brother Guo, don’t bother with that kind of person.”

At this moment, Wen Hong’an came over with his son and daughter, first congratulating Guo Ming and Yiyi, then bidding farewell to Xie Yongchao, ”We plan to return today.”

Hearing this, Xie Yongchao couldn’t help but be surprised, saying, ”Aren’t you going to watch the rest of the matches?”

Wen Hong’an shook his head and said, ”No, I have some matters to attend to, so we plan to head back first. We’ll gather again when you return to Shangjing. Here, I wish Yuan Zhou a good ranking.”

”Thank you for your good wishes, Brother Wen.”

After speaking with Xie Yongchao, Wen Hong’an also bade farewell to Guo Ming and the others, finally leaving with his two children.

Before leaving, Wen Lin bid farewell to Yiyi and Xie Yuanzhou, and Wen Tao also smiled slightly and nodded at everyone, then the three of the Wen family left quickly.

”Brother Guo, why don’t we have a meal together, then let Yiyi and Yuan Zhou rest.”

Hearing Xie Yongchao’s words, Guo Ming nodded, and his anger subsided somewhat, after all, Wu Xiu ended up angrier than him.

Then the group went straight to a restaurant.

After the meal, Yiyi went straight back to her room. However, she didn’t rest, instead, she recalled all the matches she saw today, pondering over the techniques of those who made it to the finals, thinking about what moves she could use if she were to face them.

After thinking for a long time, Yiyi finally reviewed everyone, then fell directly to sleep.

The next day, Yiyi arrived at the venue again early in the morning with Guo Ming.

Seeing Guo Ming and his disciple, Xie Yongchao immediately approached with a smile, ”Brother Guo, you came too. You must feel relaxed today, just watching others compete.”
