The original battle stage had already been quickly removed and turned into a wide square. Under the gazes of everyone, Jing Jiaren was the first to fly down from the viewing area and land at team number 1. Yu Huang also flew down from the viewing platform and quietly stood behind Jing Jiaren.
Behind Yu Huang, there was Murong Jiangcheng…
The queuing process was a little noisy. As Yu Huang lowered her head and estimated the chances of Yin Rong and the others entering Cang Lang Academy, a slender hand suddenly entered Yu Huang's line of sight. The knuckles and slender fingers were smooth, but they were filled with strength and weren't weak at all.
"Hello, Yu Huang. I'm Jing Jiaren."
Yu Huang looked up and met Jing Jiaren's gaze.
Jing Jiaren was about 1.65 meters tall and was a few centimeters shorter than Yu Huang.
Her attire was similar to the one she wore on the Doomsday Battlefield. She was wearing a black cross-collared ancient top cut from silk with a purple jade orchid embroidered on the chest. The top design was loose, revealing her fair and alluring collarbone. She was wearing a long slit dress, revealing her slender and straight legs that were filled with strength.
The wide golden belt wrapped Jing Jiaren's slender waist made her look even more seductive.
A few strands of hair fell from her forehead and her beautiful black hair, which was tied up, was decorated with a golden nude hairpin.
The hairpin was covered in runes.
Yu Huang had once been lucky enough to see Jing Jiaren's performance when she challenged the city guard on the Doomsday Battlefield, so she knew that the hairpin on her head was her weapon.
"Hello, Yu Huang." Yu Huang held the other party's hand.
The moment their fingers touched, Yu Huang suddenly acutely sensed a strange energy quickly entering her body through her fingers.
The expression on Yu Huang's beautiful face instantly turned cold. She suddenly shook off Jing Jiaren's hand and frowned as she said, "Miss Jing, what are you doing? Could it be that all the Jing family members are so rude when shaking hands with others? You use your divination power to pry into the future of strangers at will. This… seems quite impertinent."
Jing Jiaren's expression changed slightly when she heard this. "You…" She glanced at Yu Huang in surprise." You can sense the power of divination? "
The people who could sense the power of divination were either fortune-tellers or experts with stronger cultivation levels than her. However, Yu Huang was only a Beast Tamer at the peak of the late-stage Supreme Master Realm. There was only one possibility for her to sense the power of divination—
She also had the power of divination in her body!
Thinking of this, Jing Jiaren was somewhat shocked.
This body had spiritual power, psychic power that could purify evil thoughts, and the power of divination.
This was truly shocking.
Now, Jing Jiaren understood Zhan Jianxue's exasperation when she faced Yu Huang.
If it were her, she probably wouldn't be able to hold it in either.
"I'm sorry." Jing Jiaren frowned and looked at her palm as she explained apologetically, "My divination technique is about to break through recently, and the power of divination in my body is a little chaotic. When I shook your hand just now, the power of divination was suddenly released, causing a misunderstanding."
Listen.
What a smart person.
Jing Jiaren clearly wanted to sense Yu Huang's future through shaking hands, but this clever explanation instantly concealed her true motive, and Yu Huang was unable to find a way to refute her.
Compared to the spoiled little princess of the War God Clan, the little princess of the Jing Clan was clearly a few levels higher in terms of intelligence.
Since Jing Jiaren had already said so, Yu Huang would be petty if she continued to harp on this matter. "I see. Looks like it's a misunderstanding." She smiled at Jing Jiaren before sizing her up at a close distance.
According to blood relations, she and Jing Jiaren were considered sisters. If Jing Jiaren called Jing Rujiu Aunt, the two of them would be cousins.
Jing Jiaren was very beautiful, and her beauty had an aloof aura to it. She didn't need anyone to admire or praise her. Such a drop-dead gorgeous woman had a powerful background and peerless talent. She was really blessed.
This was the darling of the heavens, an angel who had been sent to the human world by God.
Jing Jiaren took the initiative to say to Yu Huang, "My target school is Cang Lang Academy. Yu Huang, what about you?"
Yu Huang said, "Same."
Jing Jiaren smiled and said, "Then it seems like we're going to become schoolmates." Changing the topic, Jing Jiaren asked Yu Huang, "You also participated in the Doomsday Battlefield four years ago?"
"Yes, I was only at the Master Realm back then." Staring at the fair collarbone and neck exposed in the middle of Jing Jiaren's V-neck, Yu Huang marveled, "Four years ago, I saw you in the Doomsday Battlefield. You only used one move to defeat the city guard. Your performance on that day was unforgettable."
Hearing this, Jing Jiaren replied tactfully, "You only used four years to reach a level almost on par with mine. Yu Huang, you're really very outstanding." Jing Jiaren's praise was sincere.
She genuinely admired Yu Huang.
Four years ago, Yu Huang was still a nobody who was at Zhan Jianxue's mercy. Four years later, she had already advanced to the point where even Zhan Jianxue was inferior to her.
This woman's potential was terrifying.
Jing Jiaren couldn't help but wonder if Yu Huang would be able to defeat her like how she defeated Zhan Jianxue in another four years.
Jing Jiaren didn't want to think about what had yet to happen. Besides, who knew what level she could reach in four years?
"The Divination Continent is also a super Great World, so there should be a super academy there too, right? Why did you come to the Cang Lang Continent to join Cang Lang Academy?" Yu Huang was somewhat curious about this.
Yu Huang and the others desperately wanted to enter Cang Lang Academy to save their hometown, bur Jing Jiaren came from the number one family in the Divination Continent, so she didn't have the heavy responsibility of saving her people, nor did she have the pressure to enrich her family. Why did she specifically come to participate in the intercontinental finals?
Jing Jiaren's lips curled up slightly as she said, "It's for my aunt's sake."
Yu Huang was stunned.
"Your… aunt?" After Yu Huang came back to her senses, she hurriedly suppressed all the emotions in her heart and asked softly, "Could it be that your aunt is also studying at Cang Lang Academy? Or teaching?"
Seeing that Yu Huang didn't know her aunt's identity, Jing Jiaren couldn't hide her arrogance as she said, "My aunt's name is Jing Rujiu. She is an honorary alumni of Cang Lang Academy and is also a rare genius in the Jing family. Her divination skills are the best in the history of the Jing family."
"But…" Jing Jiaren's eyes were filled with worry as she said disconsolately," But she's missing. "
Yu Huang really wanted to ask how Jing Jiaren's aunt disappeared.
Just as she was about to speak, she realized that asking too much would arouse suspicion, so she suppressed the various emotions in her heart and said in a low voice, "She must be fine."
"Thank you." Jing Jiaren looked into the distance where Cang Lang Academy was and muttered, "I want to enter Cang Lang Academy to check if there's any news of my aunt." The Jing family told Yu Huang, "When I was young, my aunt doted on me the most."
Jing Jiaren subconsciously stroked the golden hairpin inserted in her black hair as she said, "This golden hairpin was a birthday gift from my aunt on my seventh birthday. I've always been wearing it ever since. This golden hairpin is filled with my aunt's blessings for me and contains the blood from her fingertips. If I get close to my aunt, the golden hairpin will react."
Yu Huang stared at the golden hairpin on Jing Jiaren's head again and observed it carefully.
Only then did she realize that there was a very, very small line of words engraved on the end of the golden hairpin that was covered in runes—
A hairpin to Jiaren.
From this sentence, it could be seen that Jing Rujiu really doted on her niece.
