Chapter 73 The battle for the leader's whereabouts
Qing Jue unfortunately didn't make it to the top three finals because she happened to bump into Wei Xi. On the last day, Jiang Ran didn't go to the stage anymore. Instead, Qing Jue, Lou Shuo and the others pulled her into the crowd outside the stadium to watch the game.
.
"It seems that the leader of this competition is either Senior Brother Wei Xi or Senior Brother Ming Cheng in the hall. There is nothing interesting to see, why don't we go to Fan Xiu's place to watch?" Lou Shuo suggested, with a little excitement,
"I heard that in Fanxiu, a particularly powerful monk was born this year. His swordsmanship is outstanding. Many immortals say he is inferior to him."
As soon as he said these words, several people became interested, so they turned around and squeezed into the mortal arena.
It wasn't until entering Jiang Ran that she discovered that the powerful monk Lou Shuo mentioned was actually Fu Hongye, whom she had met twice before. At this time, she had already won one game, which meant that as long as she won the next game, she would be
The leader of the mortal cultivator group.
Lou Shuo did not exaggerate, the other party's qualifications were indeed good, and even somewhat surprised Jiang Ran, not only in terms of spiritual power and bones, but more importantly, her understanding.
Because the Tianhua sect's skills were inherited from her, every move and style of the opponent on the field is extremely familiar, and they are very similar to the skills of the disciples of Chuandao Hall. Even in terms of single-round swordsmanship, her body skills are
, it is not inferior to Qing Jue who always reminds her, and even gives her the illusion that the other party is more standard.
When she was slaying demons, she had lost count of how many people she had passed on her skills to. After all, in those days, one more immortal who knew the magic would have more power to resist the devil.
Therefore, the friends who followed her back then had more or less practiced her techniques. However, the things she learned were relatively complicated and she was always improving. She could only get the essence by relying on her own understanding.
For example, with the same set of skills, she can understand the power to kill demon gods, but others can only use them to deal with ordinary demons. It does not mean that you can become powerful after learning the skills. And this Fu Hongye only relied on the skills she had left in her early years.
With the skills he learned, he was able to practice himself to such an extent that it would not be an exaggeration to call him a genius.
Jiang Ran even felt that if she could enter the Zhentian Pavilion and continue to practice this mental method after her ascension, she might really be able to reach the level of Qi Kuo or Little Lotus in time. She would indeed be a rare and good seed.
She couldn't help but admire in her heart. The next moment, the opponent had already defeated a monk with a higher level of cultivation than her with a sword, and took down the leader of Fan Xiu. She flicked the sword and looked towards him calmly.
Walk off stage.
"That's amazing!" Among them, Qing Jue has the highest level of swordsmanship, and she can naturally tell her opponent's level. She couldn't help but admire her, and even turned around to pull Jiang Ran and said, "Your Highness, her swordsmanship skills are similar to mine.
"
She said this in a low voice, but the figure who was stepping down from the stage paused for a moment, turned around and looked over, and happened to catch the eyes of several people.
The other party was stunned for a moment, and then the woman who had been serious and calm just now raised a big smile and waved vigorously in this direction, her eyebrows and eyes were full of joy, and she even ran in this direction.
Come here, "Your Highness!"
"Hey, she's here?" Not only Qingjue, but also Lou Shuo and Lin Ling were stunned for a moment. Seeing that the other person was about to walk in front of them, they were about to say something when another figure suddenly walked over from them.
"Congratulations to your sister Hongye." Princess Yuzheng also came down from the stands at some point. She went up to meet her with a face of joy and held her hand. "I knew you would definitely become the leader."
"So I'm calling that His Highness!" After knowing that the other party was Princess Yuzheng's, the few people who had admired her a moment ago suddenly lost interest.
"Ah? Oh, thank you." Fu Hongye's face turned red, as if he was not used to such praise. He was stunned for a while before remembering to salute, "I have met His Highness Yuzheng, His Highness Fengtian."
Princess Yuzheng also looked back, with an expression as if she had just seen them, and said, "Ah, sister Fengtian, you are here too. Are you also here to watch the Red Leaf Competition?"
Jiang Ran nodded, and the others also saluted one by one.
But Yuzheng's smile became even brighter, and there was even a bit of showoff in his voice, "I have long said that Hongye will definitely win the championship, and it is indeed the case. No wonder I fell in love with her at first sight, just like we found each other after we were separated.
As compatriots who have been with us for a long time, it seems that our Beiyun will have another strong general in the future. By the way, I heard that Tiangong has plans to use this competition to select talents, has Sister Fengtian chosen a good person? "
Jiang Ran was a little speechless. Qing Jue and Lin Ling beside him were simple-minded and didn't react. Lou Shuo heard the other party's provocative meaning and understood what he was thinking. He rolled his eyes and exclaimed in an extremely exaggerated way.
He said, "Wow, I am like a compatriot with His Highness Yu Zheng, and am I a compatriot with Fairy Rongruo? The two of you have such a good relationship!"
"Pfft..." As soon as he said these words, Qingjue and Linling couldn't help but burst into laughter. After all, her last sister Rongruo Fairy was abolished with their own eyes.
Yuzheng's face also darkened, but it was difficult to refute in front of so many people. However, his voice was a little colder, and he turned back to the topic and said, "If Fengtian hasn't decided on a candidate for the moment, why don't I help you recommend a few people?"
?Although there won’t be anyone better than Hongye, there are also some with good qualifications among the others. If you train them well, they might be able to rise to the top faster than my sister.”
What do you mean, are you deliberately mentioning His Highness's status as a mortal? Qingjue and the other three were angry. They were about to speak but were stopped again.
"No, thank you for your kindness." Jiang Ran replied.
"You don't have to be polite to me." The other party seemed to find her pain point and continued, "After all, this is your first time hosting such a competition. If no one is selected, Hongye, who won the first place, will still come with me.
It’s not good to be in Beiyun.”
Jiang Ran frowned and was about to speak when an urgent voice suddenly interrupted from beside him.
"Wait a minute, what Beiyun? Who said I'm going to Beiyun with you!" Hongye, who was blushing and excited just now, finally seemed to understand something, and shook Yuzheng's hand violently, shaking his head.
Like a rattle, he shouted loudly, "I won't go to Beiyun! I haven't, I won't, don't talk nonsense!"
ha?
Everyone was silent for a while, and they could faintly hear the sound of slaps in the face.
Hongye's expression became even more flustered. For fear that they wouldn't believe it, she looked straight in the direction of Jiang Ran and explained urgently, "Really! You believe me. I didn't want to go to Beiyun with her. Only the devil would go to Beiyun!"
"
This princess who praised her all the time when they met, thought she was here to help her, but she didn't expect that she was going to harm her!
She turned pale with anxiety, and even took a few steps back to distance herself from Yuzheng, "How could I go with her? If I want to go, I have to go with you! Go...go...that's right,
Where are you from, Your Highness?"
"Tiangong?" Lou Shuo answered in a strange way.
"Ah, yes!" Hongye immediately nodded desperately, "If I go to Tiangong, I will go to Tiangong, not Beiyun!"
