Chapter 770  : Let’s Go Again (3)

Master Yue hesitated for a long while before looking towards a petite-sized Elder.

“Master Wan... this round...” Master Yue looked extremely distressed and had reluctantly spoke up only after much hesitation.

Master Wan’s face turned pale the moment he was singled out.

“Master Yue, you saw it for yourself. This girl from the Ji family... is completely abnormal.” Master Wan was trying to decline.

Master Yue replied, “It is true she is more powerful than I imagined. But... His Majesty has given his orders. The Eldest Princess is also still in her hands. As such, I must request that Master Wan step up.”

Master Wan frowned, not rejecting or agreeing. He just looked up at Ji Fengyan still sitting upon the elephant statue.

“Master Wan, only you have a chance of defeating her. To be honest, with her talent for sorcery, the sorcerers here are no match for her.” Master Yue looked extremely awkward. A bunch of highly-experienced masters having to gather and discuss how to handle a young 15 year old junior—and all of them looking totally distressed and not daring to step up to the fight—it would be a complete embarrassment if news of this situation leaked out.

Master Wan considered for a while before sighing in resignation.

“Alright, I will give it a shot.”

With that, Master Wan answered the call to battle in front of the crowd.

Ji Fengyan scrutinized the approaching small-sized Elder. She noticed that this person was somewhat strange.

The strange thing being his weapon.

According to what Ji Fengyan knew of the professions in this world, they were generally swordsmen, sorcerers, priests, horsemen and archers. But these were just your usual professions. Ye Yuan had told her that several gifted prodigies could leverage upon the various professions to create their very own set of combat skills. They did not have to adhere to a strict set of methods.

Master Wan did not hold any heavy sword, a magic staff, riders’ lance or bow and arrow. Instead... he held a pair of short knives in each of his hands.

Those small knives were only the length of a forearm, with sharp and slightly curved blades. There were also curved spikes at the bottom of the handles.

It was the first time that Ji Fengyan encountered such an object.

“Girl, I admire your power, but... we are fighting on opposite sides today. Heaven will decide our victory and defeat.” Master Wan shook his head helplessly. Compared to the earlier two opponents, his manner was rather curious.

Ji Fengyan could not detect the slightest bit of killing energy from him. In fact, his aura felt rather weak.

Instinctively, Ji Fengyan looked towards the little old man and the burly man. However, they both looked just as lost and could only shake their heads at her.

They had no idea who this was.

Not knowing the identity of this person, Ji Fengyan was also in no hurry to confront him. She just nodded politely at him.

“Please, then.”

Since he was being polite to her, she would naturally respond with courtesy.

Master Wan gave another glance at Master Yue and the rest, his face full of resignation.

Just as he was turning back, he suddenly vanished from sight!

Ji Fengyan was stunned. Not only had Master Wan disappeared from view, his aura had also completely vanished.

Something was amiss!

Ji Fengyan instantly went on the alert.

Just as she was sitting up, Ji Fengyan suddenly felt a gust of cool air brushing up against her back!
