Looking in the direction of the first arena, Jiang Li opened his eyes and looked (actually, he stared fiercely).
At this time, the dust had gradually dispersed, and more elders had arrived. It was unexpected for them that such a thing happened suddenly.
The disciples of Tiandi Hall stood there with an indifferent expression, as if they were waiting for the cheers that he imagined should come as a matter of course.
However, the cheers did not come, only the serious scoldings from several elders came.
Jiang Li's hearing was far better than his eyesight, and he could still hear the sounds over there clearly.
The content of those conversations was not difficult to guess. Basically, they were blaming the other party for how he could deal such heavy blows to his fellow disciples and why he didn't quickly take away the magic weapon and so on.
From the words of several elders, Jiang Li learned the name of the Tiandi Hall disciple.
The specific last name is too long, but the first name should be "Karla".
This kind of name that is more similar to syllables should be the naming habit of some foreign people.
Unexpectedly, this disciple who occupies the first stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage is actually a foreigner.
The world of Immortal Cultivation is vast and the human race is prosperous. It is not uncommon for various alien races with strange appearances and different customs. Jiang Li has seen many of them in the team of Shengxian Pavilion. Generally speaking, they are still human races.
However, the various alien races with a relatively small number of people and a backward culture actually did not do well among the human races in the Dazhong Mountains.
Especially in the eyes of many countries, aliens are aliens and they will not be classified in detail, and there are still many uncivilized tribes among the aliens.
This also leads to the fact that most human races generally believe that foreigners are barbaric and unreasonable existences, and naturally they look down on them from the bottom of their hearts.
Even if they enter the world of immortality, they will often encounter some prejudiced eyes.
As far as the Dachong Mountain area is concerned, some sects are actually reluctant to accept foreign disciples. Even if they accept them, these disciples will most likely be excluded.
But this alien disciple Kalla was able to be admitted into the Heaven and Earth Hall, which shows that his talent must be extraordinary.
Nakalla was scolded, and a trace of gloom flashed across his face, but he did not become angry. Reason told him that he could not act recklessly at this time.
He pinched the magic weapon with his hand and punched it into the mountain peak. Immediately, he saw the mountain peak of the magic weapon floating and slowly shrinking, and finally fell back into his hand.
And on the ring that was smashed by the mountain, a huge flat hole appeared.
The disciples who were watching couldn't help but gasp. They were all thinking secretly whether they could escape if they encountered such an attack.
In the pit, a metal magic weapon that looked a bit like a handleless pan was sticking to the ground.
It's just that this thing can hardly be seen as it originally looked.
At this time, the approaching disciples all exclaimed, and a stream of blood suddenly flowed out from the gap between the "pan" and the ring surface.
The two elders stepped forward and lifted up the metal, only to see there was a small pit underneath, and a disciple whose human form was almost indistinguishable from flesh and blood was squeezed inside.
"There's still breath! Someone come quickly!"
A group of Huichun Hall disciples swarmed forward, and two Huichun Hall elders took action among them.
The vitality of water and wood suddenly burst out, shooting up light at least three feet high in the air.
Jiang Li swallowed his saliva and looked straight behind his eyes.
Regardless of the rules of the fight, he flew out of the ring and rushed over there.
Unfortunately, his flying speed was still slow in the end, and by the time he flew closer, the vitality that soared into the sky had already dissipated.
Jiang Li, who had just stood at the edge of the ring, sighed for a while, unable to control himself with sadness.
It's almost, it's just such a small distance.
There were several disciples who were maintaining order nearby. They originally wanted to expel Jiang Li, but seeing Jiang Li so sad and thinking that he was familiar with the injured disciple, they couldn't bear to expel him. Instead, they stepped forward to comfort him in a friendly manner.
"Junior brother, don't be so sad. He is still alive. With the help of the elders of Huichun Hall, he can still be saved."
Jiang Li didn't hear clearly what the disciple was saying. He just nodded subconsciously, then passed them and came to the side of the injured disciple to watch.
He wanted to see if he could still get a chance to get a boost.
It's just that the first wave of high-intensity spells are designed to urgently hang on the opponent's life.
The injured person was squeezed by a huge external force, and various parts of his body were deformed. If he just kept using spells to speed up the healing, it would only cause the misplaced tissues to grow together, which would only make it more troublesome to adjust later.
So Jiang Li waited and waited, but still did not wait until the Huichun Hall released the magic spell again.
The monks of the Huichun Hall, what you need to do now is to first protect the opponent's heart with all your strength. As long as the person does not die, he can always be saved by taking him back to the Huichun Hall and slowly treating him.
They were busy around the injured, and it was not easy for Jiang Li to get in and disturb him.
He walked around the sunken field. While he was amazed by the terrifying power of the mountain magic weapon, he was also impressed by the ruthlessness of the other party.
Jiang Li picked up the magic weapon on the ground that had been completely deformed and destroyed.
He studied it carefully and used his phenomenological power to the maximum extent, and then he could barely guess the true appearance of this magic weapon.
This thing, which is almost turning into a metal plate, was originally supposed to be a big bell.
Looking at the material, Jiang Li roughly judged that the grade of this thing when it was intact should be at the level of a low-grade Xuan grade.
But even such a magic weapon was deformed and damaged to this extent under the impact of a strange mountain.
I looked at the marks on the ring.
When the disciple faced the attack from the mountain, he acted decisively. While using the magic weapon given by his master to defend himself, he also decisively dug a hole downwards.
This left a little bit of room for myself before the final impact came.
"Senior Sister Qiyu, how is senior brother's injury?"
After a few more minutes, the Hui Chun Hall disciples used spiritual energy to carry the wounded and left.
Jiang Li quickly grabbed Senior Sister Qiyu and asked about the situation.
"My life has been saved, and it's easy to say that I've suffered physical damage, but my Taoist foundation has been severely damaged. It's hard to say now whether I can still practice in the future."
After saying that, she followed the elder back to the Huichun Hall.
With that kind of injury, they just had to put his body back together like building blocks to put it back together, which naturally required a lot of manpower and a lot of time and energy.
The injured disciple dared to challenge the first place in the foundation building stage, so he was naturally extremely confident in his own strength.
From a comprehensive perspective, his strength should be ranked in the top three or four among these eleven people. This time, his Taoist base was destroyed. It would be a pity if he could not continue to cultivate immortality in the future.
Jiang Li glanced at Karla, who was still forcing a smile on his face, but the resentment and gloom under his expression could almost freeze people's hearts.
Because no one was killed in the end, Karla was not punished and could still continue to participate in martial arts competitions.
But in his heart, since he won, he should be cheered and screamed.
But no.
He did not think that his methods were ruthless, but felt that all this was because of other people's prejudice against him! It was all because he was a foreigner!
Soon the crowd dispersed, and with the help of several elders, the first arena was repaired, and the martial arts competition was suspended for a quarter of an hour and continued.
With the friendly help of his law enforcement cousin Qing Lie, Jiang Li had proven his strength to others, and after an hour, he was not challenged again.
However, he himself flew to the second arena of the foundation building period, wanting to go further and challenge for a higher ranking.
Jiang Li, who was just a dark horse all the way, finally encountered an insurmountable and powerful enemy here.
This senior brother looks ordinary and harmless, but his chain formations are extremely exquisite, and the chain formations are linked together step by step.
Because of the convenience of the defending format, the opponent began to arrange formations as soon as he entered the ring. After several rounds of fighting, the entire ring has almost become his back garden.
In this situation, fighting against him would be extremely disadvantageous.
Although Jiang Li was talented in rune formations, after borrowing the formations book from Elder Lin Fengying, he only looked at the cover and table of contents, and he was still not warmed up.
Therefore, he knew nothing about these strange arrangements in the arena. He wielded a pair of iron fists and ran rampant in the formation. But in the eyes of outsiders watching the battle, he was just spinning around in circles.
That senior brother didn't even perform a spell, but just relied on the power of the formation to torment Jiang Li.
A brilliant formation doesn't even need to be deployed on the ground. Jiang Li's idea of breaking the formation by smashing it open also came to nothing.
After several attempts to charge to no avail, Jiang Li had no choice but to stay in his third ring until the end of the competition.
It is worth mentioning that Shen Ruoshi, who was defeated by Jiang Li before, went into battle injured at the last moment.
However, due to the huge consumption of Zhuokong Zhongtu during the fight with Jiang Li, and perhaps because he was afraid that he would not be able to suppress his physical cultivation with the beast blood catalog, he did not choose to challenge Senior Brother Liu Bai again.
Instead, he challenged and defeated another disciple and occupied the fifth place in the foundation building stage.
In this way, after several rounds of fierce battles in the arena.
The top six in the foundation building stage have finally been decided.
The first stage is Karla, a disciple of Tiandi Hall.
The second stage is Qiao Langxing, a disciple of Fu Zhen Hall.
The third stage is Jiang Li, a disciple of Fumo Hall.
The fourth stage is Liu Bai, a disciple of Fumo Hall.
The fifth stage is Shen Ruoshi, a disciple of Tiandi Hall.
In the sixth arena, Xin Wuguo, a disciple of the Alchemy Hall.
The final winner was the Tiandi Hall disciple Karla who won the first place with the help of the strange mountain magic weapon.
But the focus of everyone's attention is not him, but Jiang Li, who has won the third place in the foundation building period and the first place in the Qi refining period due to his Qi training skills.
The significance of reaching this level through Qi training is definitely not comparable to that of a foundation-building period.
When Jiang Li reaches the foundation level, what level will his strength reach?
How strong will Jiang Li be in the foundation-building period? This topic is very popular among the outer sect.
Some people say that he will be invincible.
Some people also say that Jiang Li can continue to fight across levels and challenge the Danjie!
After the martial arts competition, five disciples in the foundation-building stage, ten in the Qi-refining stage, and fifteen disciples who were basically injured, each rode on a spiritual crane raised by the sect.
They circled the entire venue in a very impressive manner, and then flew up to the Changqing Hall floating in the air.
Next comes the moment of reward after hard work. All winning disciples will receive awards personally presented by the Valley Master in front of the elders.
Jiang Li stood on the crane's back, trying his best to make an airy posture to match the crane's ethereal temperament.
It's just that with his iron-like burly build, it's hard to get away from him no matter how you look at him.
This kind of crane is not a conventional mount. After all, with the size of the crane, it is too cramped to sit cross-legged on it. Most of the time, you can only ride on it while standing on it, which is really not very practical.
Generally speaking, it is only used as a display during sect festivals.
After jumping off the spiritual crane, all the disciples quietly walked into the Changqing Hall. The fifteen people stood in two rows. After saluting, they all stared at the ground in front of them, not caring about looking around at all.
Then come forward in order.
The reward for the first place in foundation building is a scripture hall token, a magic weapon, and a bag of spiritual stones.
The reward for second place in the foundation building period is a scripture hall token and a magic weapon.
Jiang Li ranked third, and soon it was his turn to stand in front of the Valley Master and the elders.
He bowed his hands in the same manner as before. Compared to the last time he bowed to the inner door, he was now relatively calm.
"Xiao Jiangli, Xiao Jiangli, the last time I saw you was when you bowed to the inner gate. It hasn't been a few months. I didn't expect to see you again in the Changqing Hall so soon."
Master Wu She looked at Jiang Li with a smile on his face, making Jiang Li feel slightly embarrassed.
"It is a great honor for this disciple to stand in the Changqing Hall to meet the Valley Master and the elders again."
Jiang Li has always been polite at times like this. After all, the superiors can exempt you from courtesy, but you can't be presumptuous on your own.
"Don't be so formal. You performed very well in this martial arts competition. It seems that I did not do anything wrong when I asked you to worship Junior Brother He."
Behind him, the iron-tower-like Elder He nodded pretending to be reserved, but everyone could see the pride on his face.
In this sect martial arts competition, although the first place was still won by the disciples of Tiandi Hall.
However, because Kalra's shots were indeed too heavy in the last battle, even though he was not punished explicitly, the attitude shown by the elders was still a little displeased.
In addition, Jiang Li, a freak in the Qi training period, and senior brother Liu Bai occupied the third and fourth places, and the biggest winner was naturally the Fumo Hall.
"Master's kindness to his disciples through careful teaching is as great as a mountain. Disciple Jiang Li is always grateful."
As he said that, Jiang Li and Elder He behind him looked at each other. The other person's eyes clearly said, well said, there are benefits to going back.
Master Wushe, the master of the valley, smiled and nodded. Passing down the secret method of cultivating immortality like the Beast Blood Illustrated Book is completely worthy of a great favor.
"Here, this is your reward, just as your master said, I guarantee your satisfaction."
The Valley Master took a tray from a disciple next to him and handed it to Jiang Li with his own hands.
"Hey, thank you Valley Master, thank you master, thank you elders."
Jiang Li took the tray with three items on it.
A token, a pair of boots, and a porcelain bottle.
He turned around and walked back to the queue of disciples, only to see everyone looking at him with envious expressions.
Because Jiang Li's reward for third place seems to be more generous than that of first place Kalla.
The next reward for Liu Bai and others is only one Sutra-Preaching Hall Token.
The awards for the foundation building stage were over, they stepped aside, and nine disciples from the Qi Refining stage stepped forward.
"Senior Brother Liu Bai, help me get it."
Jiang Li handed the tray in his hand to Senior Brother Liu Bai next to him, and then ran to the front of the queue for the Qi Refining Period under their stunned eyes.
Not only is Jiang Li ranked third in the foundation building stage, he is also first in the Qi refining stage, so naturally he can receive another reward.
In this regard, everyone looked at him speechlessly and enviously.
Jiang Li stepped forward and took another tray from the hands of Master Wushe.
This time, what was placed on the tray was a token and a copper-colored breast goggle.
"You must not slack off in your future cultivation. The sect looks forward to you establishing the foundation as soon as possible."
Master Wu She faced Jiang Li who stepped forward again. Now even the Valley Master could only say some clichés.
After the awards are given in sequence, the sect will put the names of the fifteen of them on the list, which will be publicized in the inner and outer gates for ten days. These fifteen people have become famous in the sect.
When leaving Changqing Hall, Jiang Li did not leave immediately with Elder He and Brother Liu Bai.
Instead, he caught up with several disciples who had been defeated by him.
Melee sword cultivator Mu Luo, Lei Linggen disciple Ma Donggui, Law Enforcement Hall disciple Qing Lie, and Tiandi Hall disciple Shen Ruoshi.
Jiang Li skillfully used the adult social etiquette of his previous life to express his "sincere" apology to them. At the same time, he also presented each of them with a bottle of high-quality healing elixir.
Jiang Li's posture made the four disciples who were defeated by him feel flattered.
Even Qing Lie, the most coy law enforcement disciple among them, Jiang Li gave him enough face.
Not only did he not say that he wanted to take advantage of him and challenge the injured, he also explained to him in front of other law enforcement hall disciples that Senior Brother Qinglie was actually very merciful in the ring, which was why he unexpectedly lost.
A few words and a helping hand can solve the social crisis.
The other party had already been convinced by Jiang Li, but this time, Jiang Li knew it from the faintly grateful eyes of the other party.
This guy who might have been his enemy has turned into his friend.
After some courtesy, the results were truly remarkable.
With Jiang Li's current reputation as a genius and his enthusiastic attitude, few people would choose to reject his friendship.
In the end, the four of them all expressed their intention to invite Jiang Li to their hall in the future.
In this way, in addition to the closest ones, the Demon-Suppressing Hall and the Rejuvenating Hall.
Senior Sister Xiaosi from the Alchemy Hall, Senior Sister Shen Ruoshi from the Tiandi Hall, Qing Lie from the Law Enforcement Hall, Ma Donggui from the Foreign Affairs Hall, and Mu Luo from the Internal Affairs Hall.
More than half of the sect's twelve halls already have Jiang Li's friends.
There is also Elder Weng Sanqi of Qimen Hall, and the Weapon Refining Hall where Jiang Li once learned rune carving, so they are somewhat sympathetic.
If there are any needs in the sect in the future, Jiang Li can also use entrusting people to handle things. This is a magical skill.
