Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1555: Chapter 1535: Individual Tournament

No matter how hard Luo Qianqian thinks, she couldn’t have guessed that after eliminating two sects, the next round would be individual matches!

She was completely frozen in the preparation area, and they weren’t allowed to arrange who plays; it was decided by drawing lots...

At this moment, she didn’t know what attitude to adopt in facing this news, which could be considered a nightmare, and it wasn’t just Luo Qianqian; even others were more rigid.

If it were the finals, they wouldn’t have any worries; they’d do their best. But in this area, silence took over.

Not to mention whether they can pass this stage; they know their own strength very well.

If Huangfu Yihui and Huangfu Yanyao had outstanding strength, they’d probably have been recruited into the sect long ago, and wouldn’t have met her at all.

The solo fight is likely to lead to a loss if they encounter an opposing attribute.

The probability of losing is high, and the possibility of exposing one’s strength is even higher.

What should be done now?

Not only are the people from Nine Heavens Pavilion full of worries, but others are too. Their strengths are generally similar. If they meet a tough opponent with a conflicting attribute, wouldn’t they be pressed down hard with no chance of turning the tide? How could they accept this?

This was supposed to be the sect tournament, so when did it turn into a luck tournament where luck decides everything?

Besides, smaller arenas were also opened, where each sect’s five members had to compete twice over five consecutive days to rank the results.

Winning earns the sect two points, a draw earns one point, and losing earns none.

However, individual matches have something team battles don’t: the ability to bring contracted spiritual beasts.

As reserve players, Luo Shufan and He Wenyu don’t need to think much as they have no tasks, only worrying about others.

But everyone else is showing grave faces, completely different from their former calmness.

They have spiritual beasts here too, with Xiao Bai and Xiao Tian.

But the difference is, Xiao Tian was raised by Luo Shufan, and Xiao Bai hasn’t signed any contract with anyone.

Not only do they dare not, but even if they dared, they must consider Baili.

Luo Qianqian showed a bitter smile too; she has contracted spiritual beasts, but they’re still in Nine Heavens Pavilion, leaving her without options.

”The three of us must go on stage, as our overall abilities are the strongest,” Huangfu Yihui said softly after looking at his brother and then at Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian lightly nodded: ”But as for Xiao Yu, she should stay here. If she gets injured, I would go crazy.”

Actually, it’s not just He Wenyu; even if Luo Shufan, Luo Yanhai, or Bai Yizhu get injured, she’d go crazy too. After all, they’re blood relatives.

If they were boys, she could be a bit more at ease.

He Wenyu silently bowed her head, knowing her strength was inadequate. She didn’t plan to cause trouble for Luo Qianqian but decided to cultivate well after hearing her concern so as not to be a burden.

Luo Yanhai complained: ”A brother can’t let his sister fight alone. Shufan, you stay behind while we, as brothers, handle it, and you, as the younger one, go have fun.”

Luo Shufan said calmly: ”I don’t mind, I know I’m not strong enough. To avoid worrying my sister, I’ll stay behind.” He showed no contention, a true demeanor of a general.

”Uh... true, seems there’s some logic in what you said... And after all, you’re still our Nine Heavens Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, just protect yourself,” Bai Yizhu quickly added.

He had hesitated about which of the three should stay, as none wanted to miss such a good chance to hone their skills. Though there was danger, they had a Divine Doctor as support, reducing the risk.

Seeing Luo Shufan wasn’t competing, Bai Yizhu couldn’t help but settle the issue, eagerly preparing and ready for a challenge.

Yan watched them finish discussing and said slowly: ”In individual matches, there might be hidden weapons and poison; be careful yourselves. Don’t forget you’re allowed to bring spiritual beasts. Avoid direct confrontations with spiritual beasts—the human defense is ultimately less than that of spiritual beasts.”

Hearing Yan’s words, Luo Qianqian agreed.

But thinking of her spiritual beast, Xiao Tang Guo, she had fed it blood, yet seemingly without any use.

He Wenyu took Yan’s words to heart and seriously suggested: ”Should we bring Xiao Tian and the little black cat? And the Little White Snake; they’re all at home. Should I go bring them?”

Luo Qianqian shook her head: ”Xiao Tian must accompany Shiba, and there are only two injured ones at home who need protection. Most importantly, these three spiritual beasts haven’t contracted with anyone.”

She didn’t think anyone here wouldn’t notice this.

If requirements are lenient here, it’s proof they know the demands.

Soon, the venue arranged for them to register their names for the individual matches, draw their numbers, and record them. The order of appearance was determined by numbers.

Their number balls were red; Luo Qianqian got red five.

Looking at the red ball in her hand, Bai Yizhu suddenly looked pitifully at everyone: ”It seems too late for regrets now; I’m so nervous...”

They were all a bit nervous; after all, this battle is entirely their own now. But seeing Bai Yizhu’s antics, they couldn’t help lightening up and feeling passionate.

”Indeed, no turning back now.”

”Let’s fight bravely and see who can etch their name on Nine Heavens Pavilion’s hall of honor, famed in history!”

”Go for it!”

”Go for it!!!”

Seven pairs of eyes met. Even though challenges and unknowns lay ahead, their hearts were united.

”Let’s hope we don’t meet each other...”

”Won’t happen, have you not noticed the opponent’s boxes are separately placed for each team?” Yan calmly looked at the line of boxes, like at a donation venue.

”Uh, seems like it.”

”With luck, you’ll have only two matches; if unlucky, you might need many more,” Yan sighed.

Boxes for drawing opponents were evidently the same, each team number being inside it among all others, ensuring they wouldn’t face their own. Moreover, the balls weren’t returned, preventing many matches daily.

This significantly reduced the risk of exhaustion battles.

Sky Inquiry Tower, as the top last round sect, naturally chose opponents first.
