Ye Xiaochuan also knew more or less about the rules of the Demon Sect on canonizing young sect leaders.
However, he felt that the result of today's battle in the ring should be secondary, and in the end it should be the power behind the fight.
After all, Old Man Mo Lin is not dead yet. As long as he lives for one day, it is unlikely that Fairy Yuxiu will ascend to power.
Moreover, except for Gui Xuanzong, who is a descendant of the Ye family, in the Demon Sect, when the leaders of the other factions change, which time is it not bloody?
Even if Fairy Yuxiu really defeated Liu Huachang in the ring today and became the Young Sect Leader.
However, on the same day that old man Mo Lin died, the group of people who supported Liu Huachang would definitely take the opportunity to launch a coup.
Back then, Long Tianshan had been the leader of the Blood Soul Sect for several months, and he was expelled without suffering any disaster, let alone the empty title of Young Sect Master.
However, looking back at the previous civil strife between the Demonic Sect factions fighting for the throne, most of them were won by the Young Sect Leader's faction.
After all, the young sect master is the candidate appointed by the previous sect master, and has also received the canonization ceremony, so he is justified.
Unlucky situations like Longtianshan rarely happen.
The defeat of Long Tianshan more than a hundred years ago also shows how deep old man Mo Lin's foundation is in the Blood Soul Sect.
Yuchi Jing is already old, and his appeal and influence have dropped to freezing point.
Therefore, Ye Xiaochuan felt that even if Fairy Yuxiu really won the competition today, she would not be able to successfully take over the Blood Soul Sect in the future.
The boring sacrificial ceremony finally ended at noon.
Tianwen, Yu Linglong, Feng Tianqiong, Cen Qiyuan and other demon sect representatives all sat down one after another.
Old Man Mo Lin did not sit on the high chair in the middle.
He stepped forward slowly and said loudly: "Today is the time when the Blood Soul Sect canonizes the young sect master. It is a small matter, but I didn't expect so many fellow saints to come to watch the ceremony. I, Mo Lin, would like to thank all the saints who came.
I teach fellow disciples, so please forgive me if I am negligent.
Our blood soul sect, among the holy religions, has a relatively short history of establishing the sect. It has only been 800 years since the first ancestor, Yecha Ghost King, founded the ghost sect. The blood soul ancestor established the sect here and it has been passed down to this day.
That's all.
Five hundred years ago, Master Tianlong, the second-generation leader of the Blood Soul Sect, promoted the Blood Soul Sect to great heights. Thanks to the respect of our fellow sects of the Holy Religion, we promoted the Blood Soul Sect to be one of the six major branches of the Holy Religion.
When it was passed down to me, I am already the fifth generation sect leader.
I have been the leader of the sect for more than 140 years. Although I have not allowed the Blood Soul Sect to make further progress, I have not caused the Blood Soul Sect to decline. I can be regarded as worthy of the ancestors of the Blood Soul Sect.
Nowadays, the world is in a turmoil. I am old and unable to do many things. In order to prevent my disciples from fighting for the position of the sect master a hundred years from now, I have posted an advertisement to select the future successor of the Blood Soul Sect today.
You are all fellow disciples of my holy religion, of the same ancestry and origin, with a common heart. I am very pleased that you can bear witness here today..." Old Man Mo talked for half an hour, most of his words being modest.
In fact, they are all bragging about themselves, counting their achievements over the years, putting gold on their faces, and competing with the young Ye.
Seeing that the sun was setting towards the west, he ended his lengthy personal speech show.
He said loudly: "After long consideration, I decided to choose my disciple Liu Huachang as the young master of the Blood Soul Sect.
Hua Shang should be familiar to all of you. As early as decades ago, she was ranked among the six fairies in the world.
Although she is a woman and not too old, she is the best choice in terms of cultivation, intelligence and fame.
However, in the Holy Religion, everyone pursues equality.
The Heavenly Demon Ancestor has set the rules for talent competition. As long as he is a disciple of the sect or Hua Chang's peers, if he feels that his cultivation and ability are higher than Hua Chang's, he can challenge him on stage.
The final winner will become the young sect leader of our sect! Hua Shang, please come on stage."
Liu Huashang, wearing a dark green dress, fell on the tall ring under the gaze of everyone.
A dozen Blood Soul Sect elders were inspecting the final magic circle barrier.
This is not a fight to the end of the world.
Duan Tianya's fighting skills cannot be over forty years old, and the highest level of cultivation is the Lingji state.
The kind of fighting in front of us to choose future successors is based on the Lingji realm. It is usually a competition between peerless masters in the realm of gods and humans.
Therefore, the barrier of the arena must be strong. Once the barrier collapses, powerful energy fluctuations will injure or even kill disciples with lower cultivation levels.
Liu Huachang smiled, flicked her wrist, and the long white bone whip extended, and finally let out a "bang" sonic boom.
For a time, cheers resounded throughout the world.
Liu Huachang smiled and said: "Huachang knows that his skills are low and it is difficult for him to take on this important task. If any senior brother or sister feels that he is more suitable for this position than Huachang, he can challenge him.
Burn incense!"
A thick faucet incense was lit and inserted into the huge bronze tripod.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Fairy Yuxiu on the stage.
Everyone knows that the only ones who can take the stage today are Fairy Yuxiu and his senior brother Long Tianshan.
But Long Tianshan hasn't appeared yet, so I guess he's scared.
So everyone looked at Fairy Yuxiu.
Ye Xiaochuan asked Ye Cha in his heart: "Grandpa Tian, what does that faucet incense mean?"
Ye Cha said: "That faucet incense can burn for an hour. If no one comes up to challenge within an hour, then Liu Huachang will automatically become the young sect leader."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "What are the rules of the challenge?
How many rounds did you win?"
Ye Chadao: "For a master of this level, it would be great if he could win one round. Who can win several rounds in a row?"
Ye Xiaochuan said: "If just winning one round is enough, then there is a big loophole. Just send one of our own people to go through the motions, isn't it enough?
I remember that in the history of Duan Tianya fighting, Buddhism took advantage of this loophole."
Ye Chadao: "This is indeed a loophole, and there are a few people in the Holy Sect who have taken advantage of this loophole.
However, the rules were later changed and the loser died.
Since then, no one has taken advantage of this loophole.
What's more, everyone is an upright person, and there are so many fellow disciples of the Holy Cult watching from the sidelines. If he commits fraud, no sect can afford to lose this person."
Ye Xiaochuan understood and nodded: "In other words, only one of the people in the ring can survive?"
Ye Cha said: "Yes, but there are some people who are merciful, but losers, even if they are lucky enough not to die in the ring, will not have a good ending.
Regarding Long Tianshan, your father Ye Tianxing once told me that he, a loser in the political struggle, was able to survive that year because of Yuchi Jing's efforts.
I always feel like something is wrong with Liu Huachang on the stage. I saw Fairy Yuxiu in the temple the day before yesterday. If she goes on stage, she has little chance of winning."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "No, Fairy Yuxiu is not as famous as Liu Huachang, but she is dozens of years older than Liu Huachang, and her cultivation level should be much higher than Liu Huachang's.
Don’t you feel wrong?”
Ye Chadao: "I can't tell. There is a cold air about this Liu Huachang. I am somewhat familiar with this cold air, but...I can't remember what it is for a while.
Now I can only confirm that there must be a secret in her, and it is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface."
