When the first ice lotus blossoms on the snow peak of Manglong Mountain, Qianchao City quietly enters the golden autumn month.
For the descendants of the Qin family, this means that the most important day of the year is about to come - the battle in the Taoist hall and the clan competition!
This year's clan competition is unusual. The Tiancheng Sword Sect has opened its gate, which has been closed for three years, and begins to recruit disciples. The ten places for the Qin family are to be selected in the clan competition.
However, the newcomers who have just entered the school for one year are not qualified to covet the limited spots. They need to go through a clan competition to decide who is qualified to stay and who will be eliminated.
Some of the outstanding disciples can enter the inner hall of each hall, and some will be used to fill the strength of the branch halls in various places. The last group of students are the weakest, and those who have no future in training can only be sent to their place of origin.
No one wants to return to their hometown with shame, so before the clan competition comes, everyone is working hard just to win a good ranking in the Tao Hall competition.
As for the direct descendants of the Qin family, they will start the fiercest fight for the ten sword sect places.
The entire Qin family and Mu Yangdao fell into a hot and uneasy atmosphere.
Qin Clan's Mansion, Zhuque Tower.
The Zhuque Tower is the residence of the Qin clan chief and the direct members of the eldest family. This seven-story majestic building is also the core of the clan. Many decisions that determine the fate of the family are made from the Lingtian Pavilion on the top floor, which represents the supreme authority of the family.
.
In a luxurious study room on the fifth floor, Qin Xiaoyue looked at the warrior kneeling in front of him with an extremely ugly expression.
Snap!
He casually picked up the white jade paperweight placed on the desk and hit the warrior on the head hard: "Get out, get out of here, you useless thing!"
The paperweight broke into three pieces and fell on the luxurious cashmere carpet. The warrior was immediately hit with a bloody head.
However, the samurai did not dare to wipe it, and quickly bowed his head and exited the study.
Qin Xiaoyue had nowhere to vent his anger, so he grabbed the sapphire porcelain vase on the table and threw it against the wall. Unfortunately, the antique worth a thousand gold was instantly shattered into pieces and became an innocent victim.
The two warriors standing guard outside the study door heard the noise coming from inside. They looked at each other without speaking.
Recently, the grandson of the eldest son of the Qin family has had a very bad temper. Several of his subordinates who made mistakes were severely punished, making everyone in the eldest house's guards and servants feel in danger.
Qin Xiaoyue's anger is inseparable from a person.
He sent Xie Wanqing and two of his capable men out to deal with Qin Yun more than half a month ago, but there has been no news yet, as if the three of them have disappeared from the world.
And he got news from Lincheng that Qin Yun had successfully wiped out the bandits in Qingfengling, rescued many kidnapped meat tickets, and continued to hunt down the fleeing bandits.
There is no news about Xie Wanqing at all.
This made Qin Xiaoyue seriously doubt whether his favorite concubine had betrayed him. He even guessed that Xie Wanqing eloped with one of the warriors and killed the other, giving himself a big green hat!
Although this conjecture is very unreliable, he really can't think of other reasons. It is impossible that Qin Yun silenced all three people?
Qin Yun, whom he wanted to deal with, was safe and sound, but there were three people around him. Of course, the eldest son of the Qin family was not in a good mood.
Ta! Ta!
There was a gentle knock on the study door.
Qin Xiaoyue took a deep breath, suppressed the anger and depression in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Come in!"
The door opened, and the person who walked in was not Qin Xiaoyue's servants, but Qin Wenbing!
Qin Wenbing obviously wasn't here for the first time. He walked directly to the chair next to the desk and sat down without any courtesy and said: "Brother, this guy Qin Yun is back and is now in the Foreign Affairs Hall!"
Qin Yun is back!
Qin Xiaoyue stood up suddenly, with a terrifying light in his eyes, which shocked Qin Wenbing: "Brother, what are you..."
Qin Xiaoyue shook his head: "It's nothing, this guy is lucky."
"Hmph!" Qin Wenbing said bitterly: "This is a clan competition. Let me see if his luck is still as good as before. This time I want him to live worse than death!"
"You are sure that you will succeed." Qin Xiaoyue glanced at him lightly.
In his heart, Qin Xiaoyue actually looked down on Qin Wenbing at all. He was a dandy who failed to succeed but failed to succeed. He always stole the chicken but lost the rice several times when dealing with Qin Yun. He simply lost the face of his direct descendants.
However, he took the initiative to join him, and Qin Xiaoyue didn't mind having many dogs under his family. Qin Wenbing was also the second son of the third family, and his father Qin Lihai was the leader of the torture hall. It was undoubtedly a good choice for him to come forward to deal with Qin Yun.
"It doesn't matter if you can't kill him!" Qin Wenbing has matured a lot after experiencing several setbacks: "I have also prepared a few back-ups. He is now a disciple of the inner court, and he is out on missions more often. I don't believe that he always
Such good luck every time!”
What you thought of, I thought of it too! Qin Xiaoyue said secretly in his heart.
But he would definitely not tell the other party this. He nodded and said: "Very good, as long as Qin Yun stays in Muyang Road, we have plenty of opportunities to deal with him."
"As long as you can deal with Qin Yun, I will guarantee you a place to join the Tiancheng Sword Sect in three years!"
Qin Wenbing knew that his strength was insufficient, and it would be almost impossible for him to stand out and grab a spot in this year's clan competition.
But three years later, when he was only in his early twenties, he still had the opportunity to learn the supreme swordsmanship and compete with his own elder brother!
Thinking of this, his heart suddenly became hot, and a flattering smile appeared on his face: "Thank you, brother!"
Qin Xiaoyue smiled calmly, but secretly felt cruel in his heart.
Qin Yun must die!
At this moment, Qin Yun, who was cursed by two direct descendants of the Qin family, was handing over tasks in the courtyard of the Foreign Affairs Hall.
He slaughtered all the Green Wolf Bandits in Qingfengling, and even Laojun Temple, which was their home base, was burned to ashes. Naturally, this mission was completed perfectly.
With the official certificate obtained from the Lincheng city guard, Qin Yun successfully completed the task and received the reward of fifty family meritorious services.
He did not stay at the Yaori Building for a long time, but went directly to the Zhaixing Building Library near the Yaori Building to find Grandma Sun to exchange for the exercises.
Seeing the dusty Qin Yun, a rare smile appeared on Grandma Sun's face: "Yes, your boy is quite diligent in his practice. He has made some progress after a while. What skills do you want this time?"
This Qin Yun had already thought about it beforehand and said without hesitation: "Grandma, I want to change to a set of yellow-level swordsmanship and light body lifting skills!"
He has Nine Yang Xuan Gong for the Inner Qi Heart Technique, which at least won't need to be replaced for a long time in the future, but the Fiery Sword Technique and the Thousand Miles of Divine Walking Movement Technique are obviously unable to match Qin Yun's current strength.
After wandering outside for more than half a month, Qin Yun had cultivated the Qianli Divine Movement to the highest level of Divine Movement, and even developed the Sword Qi in the Fiery Sword Technique, but there was no possibility of further improvement.
"Yes!" Grandma Sun nodded: "If you want to use the Light Body Lifting Technique, I have a copy of Glimpse of Light that is suitable for you. As for swordsmanship, what type do you want? Inner Qi Swordsmanship? Defensive Swordsmanship? Quick Attack Swordsmanship?"
The swordsmanship of Cangwu Jiuzhou has been passed down for thousands of years, and now it has produced countless types of swordsmanship. There are hundreds of them in the Muyang Taoist Foreign Affairs Hall alone.
Some of these sword techniques match the internal energy attributes and focus on the power of the sword's movements. Some of these sword techniques are strict and solemn in defense, and some are violent and fast to win quickly.
Qin Yun knew that the family law inherited by the Qin family centered on the Vermilion Bird Sword Technique and the Fierce Sun Sword Technique. The Fierce Fire Sword Technique he mastered was the basis of the Fierce Sun Sword Technique. Originally, it would have been the best choice to continue practicing the Fiery Yang Sword Technique.
However, Lieyang Sword Technique is a Xuan-level sword technique, and the merit required is too high, and his existing family merit is simply not enough to replace it.
As for the top-level Vermillion Bird Sword Technique, don't even think about it.
"Grandma, I want a copy of Quick Attack Swordsmanship!"
There are many types of fast attack swordsmanship. Some are purely based on speed. They emphasize that one blow can travel thousands of miles without hitting the target. They are most suitable for assassins.
There are also swords that are eccentric, with strange and difficult sword styles, and can often launch attacks from unexpected angles, making it difficult to defend against.
Some even gave up defense completely, and their moves were as fast as lightning. Once the sword was launched, it was continuous and fierce, and either the enemy or I would die!
Grandma Sun pondered for a moment, then turned around and picked out a thick sword manual from the bookshelf inside: "Although this Ben Lei Xing Yun Sword is only a yellow-level sword, its profundity and mystery are no less than those of ordinary mystical swords."
Super swordsmanship."
"The sword moves are as fast and fierce as thunder, and the sword moves smoothly with the clouds. If you practice to the highest level, you can achieve the thunder cloud sword form, and the power of attacking instead of defending is amazing!"
"Then I want it!" Qin Yun said without hesitation.
He believed that Grandma Sun would not lie to him. Since it was recommended by the other party, there must be nothing wrong.
"Don't agree in a hurry..." Grandma Sun continued: "The Thunder and Cloud Sword Technique is not the most suitable for your internal energy attributes. In addition, this set of sword techniques is very difficult and there is not enough
It’s difficult to achieve success with perseverance, so you have to think carefully!”
Qin Yun smiled and said: "No need to think about it anymore, the thing I am not afraid of the most is difficulties!"
"You silly boy!" A smile flashed in Grandma Sun's eyes: "Five hundred meritorious deeds for the sword technique, three hundred meritorious deeds for the flash of light, a total of eight hundred meritorious deeds, can you get them?"
The merit required to exchange for a yellow-level skill is dozens of times that of a high-level skill. It would be difficult for an ordinary disciple to get it all at once.
However, Qin Yun never exchanged his merits for pills, so he saved most of the merits he earned. In addition, he had won a lot from Qin Wenbing in the past, so the capital was still quite sufficient.
He immediately took out his carry-on bag and took out the merit plaque he had already replaced.
After paying eight hundred meritorious deeds, Qin Yun's originally heavy animal skin pocket suddenly became empty.
