The Baihua Palace Master, with a graceful figure and breathtaking beauty, looked at the few self-proclaimed Magical Treasure experts speaking grandiosely in surprise. Because they sat relatively close to the front and spoke loudly, not only did everyone in the main hall hear them clearly, but they also made Sha Jianming's eyes flash with pride.

"Shen Qiang, did you hear that? You lost! Your trashy Divine Artifact is simply no match for my Evil Spirit Armor!"

Gazing past the boastful Sha Jianming, Shen Qiang smiled as he looked behind Sha Jianming. That gaze was notably awkward, but he was the only one in the entire hall who did not salute in reverence when the Black Blade emitted its glow.

Thus, Shen Qiang regarded this Evil Spirit with a few more looks of interest.

It's understood that sometimes courage and ability are directly proportional.

For example, those who dare to swim usually know how, and those who dare to draw their sword without bowing are naturally strong.

So hearing the three old men's discussion and Sha Jianming's words, many cultivators responded promptly.

"Indeed, from a practical standpoint, this Divine Artifact is indeed less useful than the Evil Spirit."

"It looks like Sha Jianming has won, and Carefree Valley is the big winner at this exposition. This certainly proves Heshenghe is still quite capable, but slightly inferior to the long-established Carefree Valley."

"Yes, yes, definitely true. After all, Shen Qiang is just a lucky boy, and Heshenghe merely a ragtag bunch, so his success is already commendable. He should be content being in second place."

Everyone was debating, thinking this would be the final result.

Sha Jianming laughed explosively and said, "See, Shen Qiang! Not even a Divine Artifact guarantees a win, so stop bragging about cutting me down with one slash. The situation now is that if I want to kill you, you are helpless, so behave before me, tuck your tail, and if I see you bother Miss Qian Dai again, I'll beat you every time."

Upon hearing this,

everyone in the hall looked at Shen Qiang with meaningful and pity-filled eyes.

But at this moment, Shen Qiang, who had been quietly watching Sha Jianming, smiled slightly and said calmly, "Sha Jianming, as I said, I don't like bullying the mentally disabled, but I'll make an exception for you."

As everyone in the hall turned their surprised and puzzled gazes to Shen Qiang,

they immediately saw Shen Qiang deftly swing the Black Blade in his hand to his side before letting go.

Just when everyone thought the Black Blade would hit the ground,

BOOM!

Like a moonlit glow, pure aura erupted.

Immediately, amidst everyone's open-mouthed shock,

they were astonished to see that the slender and sleek Black Blade had transformed into a breathtaking beauty, clad in ancient garb, whose presence stole the breath from all.

Her eyebrows resembled distant mountain haze, and her eyes sparkled like stars.

Her skin was like white jade and creamy fat.

Her delicate cherry lips were like red plum blossoms blooming in the snow.

Without needing to smile, her beauty already rivaled the mortal realm.

Especially her cold and noble demeanor, filled with explosive purity, stirred reverence from numerous cultivators present.

Thud!

Sha Jianming dumbfoundedly knelt before the Sword Spirit Taiyin Youying, eyes lifted in awe, and humbly exclaimed, "Fairy."

In an instant, a scene that shocked everyone unfolded.

The breathtaking Sword Spirit, without even glancing at the kneeling Sha Jianming, turned her cold gaze to the previously arrogant and ancient Evil Spirit, speaking icily: "Who art thou? Why dost thou not kneel before me?"

Everyone was stunned.

A protective instinct surged.

"Fairy, retreat quickly, let me defeat this Evil Spirit!"

"Hurry to protect the Fairy!"

Numerous cultivators roared, eyes full of excitement at finding an opportunity to show off.

But at that moment, a scene that made everyone feel their minds explode occurred.

The battle-hardened, blood-soaked Evil Spirit made of black mist stepped back several paces and suddenly bowed with fist clasped, respectfully saying: "Your Majesty, please forgive this humble one for being armored, preventing a proper salute."

Instantly.

All cultivators were dumbfounded.

The terrifying Evil Spirit, before whom many Immortal Artifacts bowed, was polite before this stunning Fairy!

"Truly a Sword Spirit! Such a terrifying Evil Spirit dares not act rashly in her presence!"

"Goddess! A Goddess unmatched in a millennium! A Goddess who can instantly reform even an Evil Spirit."

"A flawless Fairy, compared to whom even the Baihua Palace's Jade Girl, Weisheng Qian Dai, is just average!"

"She's so beautiful, this pure and noble presence. To see such a perfect Goddess in my lifetime is worth dying for!"

Thud! Thud!

Among the shocked cultivators, dozens had already knelt on the ground, devoutly gazing at the Unrivaled Sword Spirit Taiyin Youying beside Shen Qiang.

But at this moment.

The breathtaking Taiyin Youying paid no mind to the Evil Spirit's excuse and coldly said: "Too encumbered to kneel? Remove it then!"

In an instant.

Everyone present felt a chill run from their tailbone to the top of their head, making their hair stand on end.

What does it mean to be overbearing?

What is called tyrannical?

This is it!

Everyone watched her breathtaking beauty in horror.

Their hearts jumped into their throats.

Fearing the Evil Spirit might be provoked and harm her instead.

Only, to the surprise of everyone, after a dozen or so seconds of silence, the once arrogant Evil Spirit not only loosened his hem but also knelt on one knee, bowing and saying: "Yuwen Sabao greets Your Majesty."

Everyone was dumbfounded.

All stood gaping.

Simultaneously, Shen Qiang, who had remained calm throughout, suddenly widened his eyes in astonishment at the kneeling Evil Spirit, his heart surging with shock waves.

No wonder this Evil Spirit was so arrogant; Shen Qiang was all too familiar with the name Yuwen Sabao.

He is the person who killed the most emperors in Huaxia history!

With the surname Yuwen, given name Hu, courtesy name Sabao, a Xianbei noble, third son of Shao Huigong Yuwen Hao, he achieved many military merits. After the founding of Northern Zhou, he monopolized power, responsible for the deaths of Yuwen Jue, Tuoba Kuo, and Yuwen Yu, ruling for fifteen years before being killed by his own protégé, Yuwen Yong, and posthumously titled Duke Jindang.

Unexpectedly, such an exceptional hero now inhabited the Armor, acting on Sha Jianming's instruction, a tremendous disgrace.

And as Shen Qiang marveled at the Evil Spirit's past,

the breathtaking Sword Spirit Taiyin Youying, as if it were trivial, indifferently said: "Oh, Yuwen Sabao, though an unknown pawn, you still understand decorum, so I'll spare you today. If you anger my master, you shall be unquestionably slain; take heed."
