Chapter 108 Prelude
Namgung Sol’s second Martial Arts Duel ended quite anticlimactically.
Unlike Namgung Sol, who had conserved her stamina by finishing her first match relatively quickly, her opponent had barely scraped by with a hard-won victory, having almost completely depleted their True Qi in a fierce struggle.
No matter how formidable a Peak Transcendence Master might be, if they lacked the Internal Energy to manifest Sword Qi, their advantage as a Peak Transcendence Master would be significantly diminished.
Thanks to this, Namgung Sol secured her second victory without much difficulty.
“You’re lucky.”
Zhuge Seon-a blurted out her honest thoughts, then quickly covered her mouth with her hand. Lucky. It was true, but it was also the kind of assessment that could easily offend someone who had just fought hard to win.
However, neither Namgung Sol nor Namgung-woo were so narrow-minded as to hold grudges over words spoken without malice.
“Luck is also a skill, after all.”
“My junior sister is right. In the last Martial Arts Tournament, there was even someone who advanced to the main rounds at the age of seventeen just because of good bracket luck.”
“Ah! I know who you mean. You’re talking about Cheonghwa Nangrang, aren’t you? A Rising Prodigy of the Zhongnan Sect.”
“Exactly. It caused quite a stir in Shaanxi. The Mount Hua Sect’s Rising Prodigy was eliminated, but an unexpected newcomer from Zhongnan made it to the main rounds.”
The Mount Hua Sect had risen to become the strongest power among the Nine Great Sects after the decline of Shaolin Temple and Wudang Sect.
