She naturally knew this guy, previously ranked at one hundred fiftieth, maintaining it for a long time. Although his cultivation level was the same as hers in the mid-immortality stage, He Qing was well aware.
This guy isn’t simple; my chances of winning aren’t great!
Since Tang Yingxin was recently knocked down, it’s clear he’s come today to challenge her and take her ranking!
Being ranked one hundred eighty-eighth isn’t as good as one hundred fiftieth, but at least it’s better than one hundred ninety-ninth!
The information He Qing collected was from ten days ago. The news was a bit outdated, and she only realized this now!
He Qing’s tone suddenly became somewhat agitated.
Her breathing became strange, as if she thought of something that made her uncomfortable.
"You haven’t even fought yet, why are you already losing your momentum?" Xiang Beifei asked puzzledly.
He Qing gritted her teeth and didn’t answer.
Xiang Beifei looked at Tang Yingxin from afar, thoughtfully saying, "I understand, his abilities restrain yours, don’t they?"
He Qing clenched her fists.
Xiang Beifei smiled faintly, observing Tang Yingxin with interest.
[Inquiring Dao: Tang Yingxin]
[Dao embryo: Flying Bird Dao]
[Dao cultivation: Mid-Immortality Stage]
[Dao Embryo Introduction: Anything related to avian beings can provide you with Dao cultivation, and at the same level, you can suppress any avian creatures!]
Two-legged and feathered are avians, four-legged and furred are beasts.
With wings and two feet, they are called avians.
This means, any bird, is an avian.
And the crane race precisely belongs to one type of avian!
In other words, in terms of Dao embryo, the power of the Flying Bird Dao is superior to the Crane Dao!
He Qing knew Tang Yingxin, and also knew what his Dao embryo was! Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet
The Flying Bird Race is an existence that the crane race can’t provoke, always suppressing them. Even Ying Changhong’s Eagle Dao Race doesn’t dare to challenge them.
Because their Dao embryo is naturally superior to theirs!
The only way He Qing could defeat Tang Yingxin was to have a higher cultivation, otherwise, she’d be completely crushed!
This was the reason for her inner turmoil after realizing Tang Yingxin’s purpose in coming here.
If it truly came to a fight and Tang Yingxin used his Flying Bird Dao abilities, she simply couldn’t win!
While He Qing was lost in her thoughts, Qian Fu approached from a distance, handing over a battle invitation, saying, "Miss He Qing, the first challenger for you has been confirmed, from the one hundred ninety-ninth place, Tang Yingxin. The time is in fifteen minutes, please prepare."
He Qing clenched her teeth tightly, her aura becoming even more restless.
She also couldn’t allow herself to lose!
Because she is the hope of the younger generation of the crane race!
When she successfully entered the Earth Ranking back then, the entire crane race was proud of her because, in the Edge Corner Airspace over the years, no one had made it into the Earth Ranking at a thousand years old, only she did!
And every ten years, she received a reward of thirteen measures of land to expand the Crane Dao Courtyard’s territory.
He Qing’s ranking had become a very important source of breath soil income for the crane race!
If she couldn’t defeat Tang Yingxin today, her ranking would drop to one hundred ninety-ninth.
This meant, if she couldn’t find a suitable challenger, ten years later, the reward from the Dao Palace would only be two measures of land!
From thirteen measures to two measures, such a huge loss, she couldn’t bear!
She could even imagine the disappointed looks of the elders who were proud of her, and the stunned and dismayed expressions of the younger generation of crane race who saw her as a goal.
Especially her father, who always loved and cared for her, currently serving as the Clan Leader of the crane race. If this happened, other elders might blame him, and she dared not face her father.
Today, He Yunfang was supposed to accompany her, but she refused, telling her father she had the ability to hold this ranking and he need not worry.
He Yunfang believed this too, so he rested assuredly at home to heal his wounds.
But... what if she brought back a bad result? How would she face the father who had always supported her?
He Qing felt overwhelmed with confusion!
Xiang Beifei was still resting his chin on his hand, absentmindedly watching He Qing: "You seem to be under a lot of pressure?"
He Qing gritted her teeth and said.
Xiang Beifei raised his eyebrows.
"That day when your father used the Divine Phoenix Bone against Ying Changhong, it should be with you now. The Divine Phoenix, it should mean phoenix, right? Being the king of birds, are you able to use it?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"The Divine Phoenix Bone is just a piece of a phoenix bone. Their race’s Dao restrains mine, I can’t fully exert the power of the Divine Phoenix Bone. If the Divine Phoenix Bone were in his hands, it would be more powerful than in mine."
He Qing clenched her fist, feeling very unwilling.
Xiang Beifei calmly smiled, "Not necessarily, how do you know you can’t win unless you try? I actually think you can beat him."
He Qing remained silent.
She knew Xiang Beifei was just comforting her, but how could such comfort bridge the gap between her and Tang Yingxin?
He Qing’s emotions were still very turbulent, this opponent put her under immense pressure, making her feel as if she could fall into an abyss at any moment.
As the crane race’s most outstanding talent over hundreds of thousands of years, He Qing had always held herself to high standards. Such a girl with a strong sense of pride, she had voluntarily taken on the responsibility of the crane race and absolutely could not accept her own failure.
