Chapter 237 Semifinals
The injuries on Bai Sinan's body were neither light nor serious. In addition, he was an alchemist, so it only took him two days to recover completely.
During this period, she did not forget to return to the Xuanjian Mountain team to report her safety to Zhou Weiyuan and others.
For the rest of the time, Bai Sinan almost lived in the Killing Hall.
"You are a grown-up girl, but you lie in my palace all day long and eat and drink for free, and you are not afraid of being seen by outsiders and spread rumors."
During the scene, he walked to the rocking chair where Bai Sinan was lying, pressed one end of the chair hard with one foot, and then suddenly let go.
Bai Sinan felt that his brain was almost shaken apart, so he quickly jumped off the rocking chair.
"I just ate some of your food, right? Do you have to take revenge on me like this?" Bai Sinan pouted: "Besides, we are innocent, you can't let others go out and talk nonsense, right?"
When playing the role, his eyes deepened and he raised the corners of his lips slightly: "What if?"
Bai Sinan snorted: "If you dare to spread it, I won't treat you."
When she felt Xi Shi's pulse before, she found that he had countless hidden injuries of varying sizes in his body, and he was even poisoned by a cold.
"Oh, by the way, my injury has healed a long time ago. Can you tell me about the Wang family?"
"Yeah." Xishi walked to the chair and sat down: "Tell me first, how did you offend the Wang family?"
"I killed an old man from the Wang family, and then I was hunted down." Bai Sinan shrugged.
"You killed a member of the Wang family?!" Xi Shi looked incredulous: "You should know that the Wang family is a family from the advanced continent. How could it be possible with your cultivation level?"
"At that time, the old man was just a soul, and was about to dissipate. Moreover, he was in a low-level continent, and he had no other abilities except for the puppet technique."
"Low-level continent, soul state..." Xi Shi frowned and guessed, "Are they looking for something?"
"Well, he controlled more than a dozen people to help him find something, but I don't know what they were looking for." Bai Sinan's tone was very normal, and it was impossible to tell that she was lying.
Xi Shi nodded, and without any hesitation, he used puppetry in front of Bai Si Nan and sent a message to Wang Qi: "Find out what the Wang family is looking for."
Bai Sinan was watching the show with great curiosity: "You also know puppetry?"
"Ah."
She looked down at the golden threads wrapped around her fingertips, her drooping eyelids hiding the look in her eyes: "After being controlled by others for so many years, I have to get something back, right?"
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was low and slow, as if uncovering a long-covered scar, and he began to recount those painful memories of the past.
He was originally a favored child of Xuanling Continent, but because of his feminine appearance and extremely yin body, he was noticed by Wang Yan, the young master of the Wang family, and was captured by the Wang family to become his exclusive puppet.
However, Wang Yan was not satisfied with him being a man, and not only did he have to wear various revealing skirts every day, but also had to learn women's dance to please him. If he was not satisfied with anything, he would be abused and beaten.
He had tried to escape from that hellish place many times, but in the end he was caught and beaten half to death without exception. The last time he was thrown into a cold pond and almost died in it.
Xi Shi chuckled: "It would have been nice if I could have died in the cold pond at that time."
He thought this way every day. But for some reason, after this incident, Wang Yan stopped abusing him and showed concern for him.
Just when he was about to get used to this peaceful life, Wang Yan got engaged.
That woman was even more like a demon than Wang Yan. Every time she appeared, Xi Shi would be covered in scars. Moreover, that woman was extremely cunning, and every time she attacked him, he would suffer extremely serious internal injuries, but he would not die.
Wang Yan turned a blind eye to this and only gave him a pill after the person left.
Every word spoken during the play seemed to carry a heavy emotion, and the shadows of the past gradually spread in the air.
He suddenly sneered: "Fortunately, they finally got tired of playing with me, and I lost my usefulness. So they tortured me until I was left with my last breath, and then threw me to Xingxuan Continent."
"I guess they didn't expect that I'm still alive now."
Bai Sinan did not say anything, but silently took out the aqua blue flute and played the song that he had played as accompaniment to the play when they first met.
The sun penetrated the darkness and shone on Bai Sinan. The breeze blew gently, and the passionate and soft music seemed to have the power of life, injecting into Xi Shi's body and constantly filling his empty soul.
"Your suffering is not caused by you. You have the right to live in the sunshine and kill those who really bring you suffering!"
Bai Sinan's gaze was firm and powerful.
Looking at the girl in front of him bathing in the sun, his heart beat violently.
He couldn't help but stand up and walk towards Bai Sinan. When the warm sunlight fell on him, he finally felt his soul being filled, and those things that had been lost for a long time returned to his body again.
Bai Sinan's eyes curved into crescents and her smile was bright and beautiful.
"Welcome back to the sunshine. I will help you fight against the Wang family!"

Time flies, and the long-awaited college championship competition - the semi-finals has finally begun.
Bai Sinan arrived at the competition venue early in the morning and happened to meet the Xuanjianshan team.
"Sister Si Nan! Where have you been for these days? I almost thought you were not going to participate in the competition." Qi Yan waved his hand and ran to her side.
Lu Nanyan also walked up to her and said with concern: "Yes, you haven't come back since you came back to report that you are safe last time. We are all very worried about you."
"I've been dealing with some things these days. I'm sorry to have made everyone worried."
"I'm glad you're okay." Zhou Weiyuan stroked his beard with a smile: "Let's go, let's go in first."
"it is good."
The competition venue in the main city was several times larger than that in Tianxing City. Everyone walked to Xuanjian Mountain's location and sat down while chatting.
The disciples who came to participate in the competition were all from the top academies in various cities in the Xingxuan Continent. Moreover, most of the disciples were at least at the fifth-level Spiritual Emperor, and only a few were at the fourth-level Spiritual Emperor. This gap in strength inevitably made the disciples of Xuanjian Mountain feel a lot of pressure.
"Junior Sister Bai, do you think we can win?"
When Bai Si Nan heard this familiar voice, he knew who it was even with his toes: "The game hasn't started yet, isn't it a bit too early for you to ask now?"
"Oh, that's right." Min Ganji nodded: "Then I'll ask again after the game starts."
Bai Sinan held his forehead helplessly.
The rules of the semi-finals were the same as those of the auditions. The referee did not explain the rules in too much detail and began to draw the first group of competing academies after announcing the start of today's competition.
All the schools were hoping that they would not be the first to be selected. Because in this kind of competition where the strength of the opponent is unknown, the earlier you go on the field, the easier it is to expose the school's trump card.
Especially for an academy like Xuanjianshan that doesn't have any trump cards, they don't want to be the first to go on the field.
But the fact is, the less you want something, the more it will come.
"Tianxing City - Xuanjian Mountain, versus Xuanye City - Xuantian Academy!"
The fire of expectation in Zhou Weiyuan's eyes was finally extinguished after he heard the three words "Xuanjian Mountain".
And it doesn't matter if he's the first to go on the field, a civil war in Tianxing City is also fine...
Zhou Weiyuan sighed and could only resign himself to his fate and analyzed: "I don't know much about the situation of Xuantian Academy, but Xuanye City is famous for refining weapons, so the academies in Xuanye City will pay more attention to refining weapons, and their actual combat capabilities should not be very strong."
Bai Sinan agreed, "Since no one knows the other party's strength, they won't rashly send a very strong person to the field first, so we can just follow suit and test it out slowly."
"In that case, let me be the first to go on stage." Qi Yan stood up.
"Well, come on, Qi Yan." Zhou Weiyuan encouraged.
After discussion, Xuantian Academy also sent a disciple to the field.
To everyone's surprise, Xuantian Academy only sent a fourth-level Spiritual Emperor disciple to fight.
"No, aren't you being a little too disrespectful?"
Qi Yan was so angry looking at the people opposite him. Even if Xuanjian Mountain was weak, they wouldn't let a fourth-level Spirit Emperor come up to test them, right?
