The Qinglei Sect holds an aspirational conference every three hundred years.
The Aspirations Conference invites all the reputable and powerful Dan-Jie practitioners from Dayun to participate, providing them with a stable trading environment. It will also compete for the number one Dan-Jie monk in the north of Dayun, who will be crowned the first person under the Nascent Soul.
Whichever sect wins the title of the first person is equivalent to getting a golden sign, making the sect famous, thereby recruiting more talented disciples to expand the sect's strength.
Generally speaking, the title of the first person will fall into the hands of the heads of the five sects of the righteous path. They are all at the peak of the late stage of pill formation, and other monks are difficult to match.
Master Ziyang of Ziyang Cave Heaven, because he is the oldest and most powerful, has occupied the top spot for six hundred years.
And after the championship conference ended, the title of the first person was actually taken by a junior who had just entered the late stage of Dan Jie.
This person is Zhu Tianyu, the leader of the Huoyunjia Sect. In the decisive battle, Zhu Tianyu's body of heavenly fire showed off his might. He leapfrogged Master Ziyang with ease and won the title of No. 1.
In this battle, Zhu Tianyu gained a reputation as a body of heavenly fire, and everyone had to envy this genius who found a new way. Even Master Ziyang was heartily convinced by his defeat, and was full of praise for Zhu Tianyu's talent and strength.
This year, Song Jinglun had just entered the Dan Formation stage, but his performance was very impressive and he won the first place in the Dan Formation Rookie Competition.
Song Jinglun, who was just starting out, was very excited to win the top spot and looked forward to sharing his joy with his senior sisters, brothers and masters.
At that time, Tang Shan'er had not yet entered the stage of forming pills, but because she was the daughter of the sect leader, she was used to being pampered, so she followed Huo Yunshi and the other monks who formed pills to the aspirational conference.
Song Jinglun walked out of the Jiedan rookie competition area and saw Tang Shan'er walking towards him with a cheerful pace. Tang Shan'er looked excited at this time, and the long braid on her back bounced with her steps, looking very sober and cute.
Song Jinglun became excited. He thought to himself that the senior sister who greeted him as soon as he came out must be here to congratulate him.
He walked up to them, suppressing the joy in his heart and said: "Senior sister, did you watch my finals just now? Junior brother, I won by luck and won the first place in the Dan Jie Rookie Competition. I didn't embarrass you now, senior sister!"
Hearing this, Tang Shan'er's face was obviously a little stunned. Then she stood up on tiptoes and touched Song Jinglun's head with a smile.
Song Jinglun also enjoyed it very much, his eyes were filled with Tang Shan'er's red lips and white teeth.
Tang Shaner smiled and said: "Junior brother, you are working very hard! Now our Huoyun moment is a double blessing! But junior brother, you can't be proud, you are still far away from senior brother!"
Hearing this, Song Jinglun was a little stunned.
Double happiness?
At this time, a strong hand was placed on Song Jinglun's shoulder. Song Jinglun turned around and saw that it was his senior brother Zhu Tianyu.
Zhu Tianyu said with a pleased smile on his face: "It's a pity that senior brother and you were in the finals at the same time, so I didn't have the chance to see your performance on the court. I heard that you won very cleanly. It's great to be able to do this. You are better than senior brother back then."
"
"Brother!"
With a smile as bright as a flower, Tang Shan'er jumped into Zhu Tianyu's arms and hugged Zhu Tianyu's neck without letting go.
"Oh, Shan'er, what are you doing?"
Tang Shan'er stared lovingly at Zhu Tianyu's face, her eyes narrowed into two crescent moons, and said: "Senior brother, Shan'er watched your game, senior brother, you are so awesome and handsome! You beat that old man Ziyang so hard that he couldn't even fight back.
!”
She clenched her little fist and said, "You don't know, senior brother, the "Sky Fire Body Training Technique" you worked out is so powerful. No, you have to teach it to Shan'er in the future!"
Zhu Tianyu fondly stroked Tang Shan'er's hair and said dotingly: "Of course our Shan'er is indispensable!"
Tang Shan'er leaned into Zhu Tianyu's arms and refused to come out. She tilted her head and said thoughtfully: "Well...Senior brother, you are now the number one person under Yuanying. Shan'er has to think carefully and ask you to send Shan'er off."
What is good..."
Zhu Tianyu laughed loudly: "It still makes sense, shouldn't you give senior brother a gift to express your congratulations?"
"I can't give it away. Everything about Shan'er belongs to senior brother."
…………
Song Jinglun stood aside, watching the two of them reflecting each other in their eyes, and the smile on their faces slowly disappeared unconsciously.
It turns out that my senior sister didn’t watch my finals, nor did she come specially to congratulate me...
"Okay Shan'er!"
At this time, the head of Huoyunjia and his wife came over.
Tang's mother said angrily: "Shan'er, what do you look like? You've been pestering your senior brother all day long. Tianyu just went through a fierce battle and needs a good rest. Come here and stop worrying about your senior brother."
Tang's father laughed loudly: "What's the problem? Young people should look like young people. I think Shan'er is very suitable for it. Hey, they say that girls are not allowed to stay in college. Old lady, let Shan'er stay with Tianyu.
It’s like staying with us.”
Hearing this, Tang Shan'er blushed and had to open her arms. She stood beside Zhu Tianyu and whispered: "Dad, what are you talking about! This is so embarrassing!"
Zhu Tianyu and Song Jinglun immediately approached Father Tang and bowed to worship him.
"Disciple meets Master!"
Seeing these two disciples, Tang's father was overjoyed. He quickly picked them up and praised them: "It is a blessing for me, Tang, to have you two as my disciples! You two brothers will definitely be able to revitalize us in the future."
Huoyun moment, especially you! Tianyu!"
Tang's father looked at Zhu Tianyu and nodded frequently, feeling even prouder than his son: "Being able to knock down that old guy Ziyang is awesome! With you supporting Huo Yunshi, I can relax my old bones! Let's go.
, call all the sect members, let’s go back to the sect to celebrate!”
Soon, all the Danjie elders from Ziyang Cave Heaven gathered around Zhu Tianyu, asking about Zhu Tianyu's "Sky Fire Body Forging Technique" and the details of defeating Master Ziyang. Tang Shan'er kept holding Zhu Tianyu's arm.
, and listened carefully to what he was talking to other disciples.
Song Jinglun was also gathered in the crowd, listening to Zhu Tianyu's teachings.
His senior brother won the top spot, and he got the top spot among the Dan-Jie rookies. Both of these things should have made him ecstatic. But these two things put together made him feel constantly depressed.
Seeing his senior brother Zhu Tianyu being held in high esteem by his disciples, being favored and attached to by his senior sister Tang Shan'er, and being valued and relied upon by his master, Song Jinglun felt like his heart was sinking into an abyss for some unknown reason.
Gradually, he separated from the crowd and stayed away from the team, but no one in the team was so happy that he noticed his departure.
Although Zhu Tianyu's back gradually moved away, his figure continued to enlarge in Song Jinglun's mind. Until it was higher than the entire sky, until the clouds covered the sun, it was like a mountain that he could never climb. A strong sense of oppression.
It weighed heavily on his heart.
Confused, hesitant.
Song Jinglun suddenly heard a voice in his head.
This voice suddenly came from far away and suddenly came near, as if it came from eternity ago, and it was full of magical power that inspired people's hearts.
"Don't be envious, don't be jealous, you can take my place."
Song Jinglun was startled. This voice came directly into his mind, and he asked: "Who are you?"
"Someone who can help you fulfill your inner thoughts."
