Sorry but I only accept female disciples!

She struggled to stand, using the remains of her sword as a crutch, her breath coming in ragged gasps.

Despite the damage, her eyes still held a fierce determination, but her strength was nearly spent.

Xiangli Zhi stood up from her seat in shock to see her daughter in such a state and her heart gripped in pain.

"Fei\'er..."

Looking at her, Zhang Fumin closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Before Zhang Fumin could react, Xiangli Fei lunged forward with the broken sword.

The blade, though halved, still held a deadly edge, its icy coldness now concentrated into a smaller, more lethal form.

The crowd gasped as Xiangli Fei slashed at Zhang Fumin with every ounce of remaining strength, the air around her crackling with ice.

Zhang Fumin barely managed to sidestep the first strike, her eyes widening in surprise at the sudden assault.

The broken sword whistled past her, a trail of icy mist following.

Xiangli Fei was relentless, slashing again and again, her attacks fueled by sheer willpower.

Each swing of her sword left arcs of ice hanging in the air, the cold biting into Zhang Fumin\'s skin even as she dodged and blocked with her gauntlets.

"What are you doing bitch, stop... Just accept your defeat."

*clank* Zhang Fumin barely managed to bring her gauntlet up in time, the broken sword clanging against it, sending a shock of cold up her arm.

"Since you are going this far..."

Zhang Fumin\'s flames surged once more, though weaker than before.

She countered with a swift punch aimed at Xiangli Fei\'s side, her fist igniting in a burst of fire.

Xiangli Fei twisted away, but the flames grazed her ribs, scorching her skin a bit. She hissed in pain but didn\'t relent, slashing back at Zhang Fumin with determination.

Their fight became a brutal, close-quarters brawl, the two women pushing each other to their absolute limits.

Zhang Fumin\'s gauntlets blazed with the last of her fire as Xiangli Fei\'s sword, though damaged, was still sharp, each slash releasing shards of ice that flew through the air like daggers.

Zhang Fumin gritted her teeth as she took another glancing blow from Xiangli Fei\'s sword, the cold biting deep into her shoulder.

She retaliated with a spinning kick, flames igniting around her leg as she aimed for Xiangli Fei\'s torso.

Xiangli Fei blocked with her sword, but the impact sent her stumbling back, her feet barely finding their place on the ice-slicked ground.

"This ends now..." Zhang Fumin muttered, channeling all her remaining energy into her gauntlets.

The flames intensified, turning a deep, crimson red as she lunged at Xiangli Fei, her fists blazing, ready to deliver the finishing blow.

But Xiangli Fei wasn\'t finished yet either.

"Ughhh!!" Gritting her teeth in pain, she raised her broken sword high, summoning the last of her ice power.

"Glacial Shard!" she uttered, and the blade shattered in her hands, sending a flurry of razor-sharp ice fragments hurtling toward Zhang Fumin.

The shards struck Zhang Fumin like a storm, cutting through the flames and entrenching themselves in her arms and torso.

"Arghhh!!" She winced in pain, feeling the cold seep into her very bones, but she pressed on.

Pulling back her hand, she brought her flaming fist crashing down on Xiangli Fei.

The impact was explosive, a burst of fire and ice that sent shockwaves through the arena.

The ground beneath them cracked and splintered, flames and ice clashing.

When the smoke and steam cleared, both of them were on their knees, panting heavily.

Zhang Fumin\'s gauntlets were still glowing faintly, but the fire had dimmed, her energy nearly spent.

Xiangli Fei\'s sword was gone, her hands empty, and the ice in the air was dissipating. She looked up at Zhang Fumin, her eyes still fierce, but the exhaustion was evident.

Zhang Fumin slowly rose to her feet, her body aching from cuts and bruises, the ice shards still embedded in her skin.

She took a deep breath, steadying herself, and looked down at Xiangli Fei. "It\'s over."

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Fumin clutched her wrist and raised her leg, delivering a forceful kick to Xiangli Fei\'s face.

*thud* Xiangli Fei rolled down on the arena floor and Zhang Fumin looked down at her, a cold voice slipping past her lips.

"Don\'t ever come close to my Yuan."

However, Xiangli Fei gritting her teeth, tried to stand up but she couldn\'t and kneeled on the floor.

"N-No, I will... I want to... talk to you Little Sister."

"Little Sister?"

Zhang Fumin\'s eyes narrowed in anger and she clasped Xiangli Fei\'s hair with her left hand, pulling her up.

"I will never... talk to you and don\'t call me that."

"Urghhh!!" Xiangli Fei screamed in pain, feeling her hair being pulled and desperately clutched on Zhang Fumin\'s hand.

"H-Hear me out..."

Xiangli Zhi couldn\'t take this bullshit anymore and leaped down from her seat landing on the arena floor.

"Fumin!"

Hearing a yell, Zhang Fumin let go of Xiangli Fei as she stumbled onto the floor.

"How dare you beat my daughter like this?!"

Keeping her smirk, Zhang Fumin plucked an icy shard that was stuck on her face "Come here bitch, I will beat you too."

HUH? Anger seeped into Xiangli Zhi\'s heart upon hearing this and she walked to Zhang Fumin, raising her hands for a slap.

However, Zhang Fumin swiftly caught her wrist and delivered a bitch slap across Xiangli Zhi\'s face making her neck snap to right.

WHAT THE FUCK???

The audience gaped in shock to see Zhang Fumin casually slapping the Queen of the Empire.

Seeing his wife getting humiliated like this, the Emperor sprang into action and Xiangli Jei landed on the arena.

*gasp* Zhang Fumin\'s breath caught in her throat as she felt the imposing presence of Xiangli Jei as he released his cultivation pressure on Zhang Fumin.

*booom* But in the next instant, Xiangli Jei was blasted across the arena as he crashed onto the walls of the arena, making the whole arena shake for a bit.

"W-Woahhhh"

The crowd was taken aback when they caught sight of the strikingly handsome man, his flowing long white hair dancing gracefully in the air as he appeared beside Zhang Fumin on the arena floor.
