Chapter 275: Ch-275: Illusion Immunity
Jiang Hong, Lei Ping, and Zhou Huixin were also watching the matches from a distance.
"Heavens, I think the Outer Court is stronger than the Inner Court," Zhou Huixin commented as she watched the female disciples of high cultivation pummeling the male disciples. Jiang Hong and Lei Ping, who overheard her remark, twitched their lips in response.
"Sect Master, what are we going to do? Should we promote all of them to the Inner Court?" Lei Ping asked Jiang Hong.
"Sigh, I did not expect so many of them to have increased their cultivation. Let's wait and see," Jiang Hong replied.
They continued to watch the matches until it was finally Shi Yu and Wang Ming's turn. Their eyes widened in shock when they saw the purple mist erupting from Shi Yu's body, engulfing half the audience in an illusion. The mist even reached them, forcing them to hurriedly use talismans to resist it.
"What kind of illusion technique was that?" Zhou Huixin asked, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, having nearly fallen into the illusion herself.
"I think it's a physique-based skill. I can sense that the mist is linked to her physique," Jiang Hong commented.
"As expected, even Wang Ming's dao companions are formidable," Lei Ping said with a sigh.
"Heavens, her cultivation is so high. I heard he has more companions, right?" Zhou Huixin asked.
"Yes, one of them is Disciple Luo Li, the other is Disciple Feng Mei, and another partner is Bai Lingxi," Jiang Hong replied.
"Heavens, such talented disciples are his partners. I wonder how strong that Bai Lingxi is. I've decided—I want Disciple Wang Ming even if I have to offer all the female disciples of my peak to him. That way, his partners will also join my peak," Zhou Huixin commented.

Wang Ming watched calmly as the purple mist moved toward him. He stood still until his entire figure was engulfed in the mist.
"Hmm," Wang Ming muttered, feeling a prickly sensation on his head that caused a minor headache. He frowned.
"Why am I getting a headache instead of hallucinating?" Wang Ming wondered aloud, puzzled because he had expected Shi Yu's technique to cause hallucinations.

"Hmm, my physique activated," Wang Ming's eyebrows widened in surprise as he read the text. The last time his Primordial Physique Merging Body activated was when he absorbed a new physique, which had been a long time ago.
He raised an eyebrow as he realized that the reason he did not hallucinate or fall under Shi Yu's technique was due to his physique.
"Her technique has gotten stronger," Wang Ming muttered. The last time Shi Yu used her technique, the range of the purple mist was short, but now it covered half of the entire audience.
He smiled in amusement when he overheard some of the male disciples hallucinating about wearing a green hat, while some of the females fantasized about being his partner.

************
" Laws?" Wang Ming raised an eyebrow when he read this. Honestly, he did not expect that just fighting with Shi Yu we would gain a Ancient Rank Passive skill. He looked at Shi Yu and curled up his lips.
Wang Ming saw Shi Yu raise her hand towards him and all of a sudden his expression changed.
"Laws?" Wang Ming raised an eyebrow as he read the text. Honestly, he hadn't expected that just fighting with Shi Yu would grant him an Ancient Rank Passive skill. He glanced at Shi Yu and curled his lips into a smirk.
Wang Ming noticed Shi Yu raise her hand toward him, and suddenly, his expression changed.

"I think I overdid it," Shi Yu said as she saw everyone in the audience had fallen under her technique. She was about to retract the mist but stopped when she noticed the referee waving his hand. A protective array emerged, sealing the platform from the crowd and allowing them to recover.
Shi Yu turned her attention to Wang Ming and frowned when she saw the mist being absorbed into his body for some reason. Her lips twitched as she caught the eager look on Wang Ming's face, as though he was asking for more mist. This caused veins to bulge on her forehead.

Shi Yu used another technique and finally noticed a change in Wang Ming's expression.
"Shit," Wang Ming cursed when he felt a foreign intrusion in his mind trying to tamper with his memories. It lasted only a brief second before it stopped.
