After Yun Hai's explanation, Chen Mo learned some details.
While Mo Li's background couldn't compare to Yun Hai's, it was still extraordinary.
He came from one of the four great families in the northeastern province of the Jia Ma Empire, and his family's Grand Elder was an outer sect steward of the Yunlan Sect, highly valued by the sect.
Therefore, Mo Li entered the inner sect shortly after joining the Yunlan Sect, displaying exceptional talent and even receiving a personal audience with Yun Yun.
It was after that meeting that Mo Li acknowledged Nalan Yanran, showering her with attention and affection, as if he were clinging to her.
Especially after Nalan Yanran went to the Xiao family to annul her engagement three years ago, Mo Li's offensive intensified; wherever Nalan Yanran appeared, he was sure to be there too.
Nalan Yanran was extremely proud and not someone who could be won over by persistent pursuit; she hadn't agreed to be with him.
"But I seem to remember that Mo Li was specifically sent by the Mo family to seduce Nalan Yanran."
Chen Mo thought to himself. The Mo family didn't seem very powerful, but their ambitions were enormous, even wanting to replace the Jia Ma Empire and the Yunlan Sect.
Seeing Chen Mo thinking quietly, Yun Hai suddenly smiled teasingly, "Hehe, junior brother, you wouldn't happen to like our Senior Sister Nalan too, would you?"
"That's right, a beautiful lady is a gentleman's pursuit. Junior brother, if you say it, we won't laugh at you. Besides, with your talent, you are worthy of Senior Sister Nalan."
Yun Hai saw that Chen Mo didn't speak, so he assumed that Chen Mo had tacitly agreed and continued to speak.
Chen Mo did have feelings for Nalan Yanran. To be precise, he had feelings for anyone who was good-looking.
But having feelings was one thing, and pursuing them was another.
The most important thing right now was to win over Yun Yun first.
Mo Li's solo performance was quite good, commendable in all aspects.
But it just didn't leave a deep impression.
Especially after Nalan Yanran made her grand entrance.
As Yun Yun's first personally taught disciple and the officially appointed young sect leader, Nalan Yanran's status was no different from that of a princess in the royal family.
Her appearance seemed poised to ignite the entire scene.
Chen Mo, for one, would never admit that his first thought was to stare at her long, white legs.
"Hey, Nalan Su, as they say, a girl grows up quickly. I never imagined that the spoiled young girl at the disciple-acceptance ceremony would have transformed into such a beautiful young lady," Mu Chen remarked, stroking his white beard.
Nalan Su was about to get angry when he heard someone call him by his name, but when he realized it was the old patriarch of the Mu family, his anger vanished, and he laughed, "Not at all, not at all." "
I heard that Yanran broke off her engagement with that boy from the Xiao family in Wutan City, didn't she? I wonder if she's interested..."
"You old man, don't ruin Yanran's life! Everyone knows your Mittel family is all women and no men, not even a woman to take care of things. But my Mu family doesn't mind, Yafei..."
Watching the two old men argue back and forth, their faces turning red, especially with Xing Tian joining in later, Nalan Su, caught in the middle, trembled.
"Nalan Yanran, eighteen years old, a seven-star Dou Shi."
Nalan Yanran wore a wide-sleeved moon-white robe, bowing slightly. Bathed in sunlight, her graceful figure was clearly visible.
After bowing, a light flashed in her storage ring, and a pale blue longsword appeared. The blade was tilted, and the sunlight shone down, revealing its imposing aura.
"The extreme of wind, a swirling, cleaving whirlwind."
Nalan Yanran brandished her longsword, a single strike causing the space before her to ripple slightly. Several azure wind blades, each five or six zhang long, appeared out of thin air, then intertwined, forming a cylindrical whirlwind resembling a field of blades, spiraling outwards at high speed.
"Thousand Winds!"
Just then, a moon-white shadow flashed out, suddenly appearing opposite the cylindrical whirlwind.
Nalan Yanran sheathed her sword, her slender white hand emerging from her loose sleeve. Her long, jade-like fingers flicked out, five pale azure spiraling whirlwinds appearing at her fingertips, like five sharp azure fingernails, slicing through the cylindrical whirlwind.
"Boom!"
With a resounding boom, two surging energies dissipated into the heavens and earth.
This is the essence of using minimal force to achieve maximum effect.
What the hell is called showing off? What the hell is called the grand finale?
This is it.
If this world had live streaming...

The barrage of comments was absolutely full of "666".
The effect was explosive.
Mo Li, who had previously shown eight-tenths of her strength and put on a personal show, suddenly turned ashen-faced.
"Senior Sister Nalan is mighty! Senior Sister Nalan is domineering!
" "The first place in this inner sect competition belongs to Senior Sister Nalan without a doubt!"
"Senior Sister Nalan, I want to have your babies!"
"Slap, get out of here."
...
At this moment, Nalan Su's face was flushed, not from doing anything shameful, but from excitement, the excitement of a father whose daughter was praised by everyone.
Mittel Tengshan, recalling his earlier words, also had a strange expression.
Yun Yun nodded, very satisfied, and even personally transmitted her voice to Nalan Yanran, saying "Not bad."
Jia Xingtian's worry deepened even more; this was just a personal show, and they hadn't even entered the official inner sect competition yet.
And then there were the royal family members. "
Sigh."
"Ding, Wind's Extreme series, high-level Xuan-rank combat skill. You can spend 1500 Qi Luck Points for in-depth observation, and 1000 Qi Luck Points for combat skill observation."
Seeing more unfamiliar concepts appear in his mind, Chen Mo quickly asked, "What is in-depth observation? What is combat skill observation?"
"In-depth observation allows you to observe the opponent's understanding of the combat skill and the strength they demonstrate. For example, if you deeply observe Nalan Yanran's Thousand Winds, you will obtain Nalan Yanran's fully mastered Thousand Winds." "
Combat skill observation only obtains the incantation of the Wind's Extreme combat skill. Note that in-depth observation only works on combat skills."
It took Chen Mo a long time to digest this, then suddenly his eyes lit up.
He seemed to have found a shortcut to cultivating the Thousand Thunder Technique.
After the individual performances, there was a short break.
This was used to recover battle qi and for relevant personnel to repair the venue.
After the break,
the tense and exciting solo round began.
Chen Mo was number 29.
Also number 29, this was merely a minor character with peak Dou Zhe cultivation.
The latter lacked the protagonist's halo and didn't have any cheat codes.
The result against Chen Mo was self-evident:
a free win
. After two battles, Chen Mo directly entered the top sixteen.
In the round of sixteen to eight,
Chen Mo drew Mo Li.
"Chen Mo versus Mo Li."
When Yun Leng's voice rang out in the square, whispers followed.
Most disciples felt sorry for Chen Mo.
"It's Mo Li."
"Although Chen Mo's performance was quite good, the difference in their cultivation levels is too vast; one is a five-star Dou Shi, and the other is only a two-star Dou Shi."
"This is too unlucky! It would have been better if he had been matched with Zheng Tian; he has to fight Mo Li."
"Is this where he's going to stop?"
