Helian Jiao'er's initial words seemed to sympathize with Helian Weiwei, but in this situation, everyone interpreted them differently. Instead of sympathizing, they believed that Helian Weiwei was intentionally attracting attention by quickly selecting a martial cultivation, just to win everyone's attention.
The sarcastic comments and sneers from the audience intensified, criticizing Helian Weiwei for pretending and lacking knowledge about martial arts cultivation. They believed that she was trying to gain the favor of the judges through her actions.
However, Helian Weiwei's expression remained unchanged. With an evil smile on her face, she stood confidently in her wide red clothes, appearing like a blood lotus among the mocking remarks.
She finally spoke, her words carrying weight and authority. "The judges haven't announced the answer yet. Isn't it a bit too noisy?"
Placing her umbrella on the ground, she exuded a calm and unhurried aura, commanding attention and creating an invisible sense of oppression.
In the private room, a man's eyes flickered imperceptibly as he observed the scene. His lips curled into a slight smile, emitting an aura of wickedness.
Meanwhile, the red-haired man beside him rubbed his eyes, feeling unsure if he had seen correctly. The man glanced at him but remained silent, his indifferent voice acknowledging the mistake.
The red-haired man grumbled to himself, realizing that he shouldn't have chosen someone with a sharp tongue as his master.
As the contestants finished selecting their martial cultivations, the elder on the referee's bench stood up and asked Jing Wushuang to reveal the correct answer.
Surprisingly, Jing Wushuang approached Helian Weiwei instead of Helian Jiao'er, standing in front of her. The two locked eyes, and a subtle exchange passed between them.
Jing Wushuang smiled and coughed lightly, asking why Helian Weiwei chose that particular martial cultivation.
Helian Weiwei also smiled but refused to answer directly. Her expression carried a wantonness that was hard to describe. She mentioned that the format didn't have any rules requiring contestants to explain their choices.
Helian Weiwei, having experience with guns and ammunition, could easily determine the quality of a weapon. For her, a weapon had to have a "murderous" aura, which meant it had to be bloodthirsty and trigger her instincts.
Out of the eighteen martial cultivations, Helian Weiwei had initially glanced at the green jade long sword chosen by Helian Jiao'er. However, upon closer inspection, she realized it was too gentle. She believed that Jing Wushuang, despite his reputation for creating gentle martial cultivations, had a hidden side that produced more formidable weapons.
The "umbrella" in her hand was not a real umbrella but a weapon similar to the "Wings of the Night God" she had created before. She suspected that it contained exceptional martial arts materials unique to Jing Wushuang.
With a mischievous smile, she pressed a delicate button on the umbrella, confident in her choice and unaffected by the surrounding noise.
Jing Wushuang coughed lightly and shook his head, seemingly a bit helpless. The audience voiced their displeasure, assuming that Jing Wushuang was merely indulging Helian Weiwei due to pity.
Helian Jiao'er's eyes narrowed, exuding a sense of pride. She was convinced that she would be the winner despite the antics of the mean-spirited woman.
Little did she know that Jing Wushuang would pick up the umbrella from Helian Weiwei's hand in the next moment, surprising everyone.
