The next day, the weather was very sunny. Everyone had already gathered early at the place where Qingsong Sect disciples usually practice sword practice. This was a huge training ground. Five arenas were set up at this moment, one in the southeast and northwest, and one in the middle. The ring is round, which allows everyone to freely fight with each other. Winning or losing is determined based on the ring, and whoever falls off the ring loses.
Each sect has its own resting spot, which is a temporary awning distributed around the ring. In the Qingsong sect, even the temporary awnings are extremely luxurious. The awnings are made of fine silk and are very luxurious. Expensive.
All sects of the Qingsong Party are treated equally, and all awnings have the same specifications, which are enough for about ten people to rest together. Because of this, the three people of the Luochen sect sitting under their own awning seem very spacious. Of course, the number of people from other sects is comparable to that of other sects. Compared to this, it seems too deserted here.
"Brother Feng Dao, are you also going to participate in the competition this year?"
The Qiantian Sect was next to them. Their number was also small, not much better than the Luochen Sect. Taoist Boyang's eyes swept over Chengyan and Mu Yu, and finally stayed on Chengyan for a moment.
In the past, no one from the Luochen sect participated, so the Luochen sect has always been ranked at the bottom, and their Gantian sect is the second to last. Now Feng Haochen has brought two disciples, and one of them is Chengyan with such a solid aura. Judging from his anger The look of calmness and tranquility shows that one's cultivation is extraordinary.
Taoist Boyang is different from other sects. He vaguely knows the true strength of Luochen Sect. If Chengyan joins, it will have a great impact on them. Taoist Boyang looked at several disciples under his sect, and then stayed in Gu Yitian It is obvious that Gu Yitian is his most promising disciple this year, and he is also a dark horse who wants to get rid of his thousand-year-old second disciple.
"We don't care about this ranking. It's just that this stubborn Mu Yu wants to see the world, so let him go alone." Feng Haochen knew what Taoist Boyang was worried about, so he smiled and explained.
"Senior nephew Chengyan will not participate? That is really a blessing for our Qiantian sect."
Taoist Boyang breathed a sigh of relief. He was sincere and did not make any false claims, which made Mu Yu like him even more. In Taoist Boyang's opinion, Chengyan did not participate in the competition. With Mu Yu's cultivation during the Qi training period, , it is indeed here to accumulate experience, so there is no need to worry, as disciples in the Qi training stage have no room to fight back when they encounter the foundation building stage.
Taoist Boyang only brought four people, which was a helpless move. There were not many disciples who met the requirements. They had to reach the foundation building stage before the age of twenty-five, and their sect only had three. In order to make up the number, they also brought a Qi practitioner from the ninth level. , other disciples who have reached the foundation building stage have already passed their age, which is a sad thing to think about.
Taoist Qingsong was already standing on the ring. As soon as he appeared, he was like a bright light. He naturally attracted everyone's attention to him without having to speak. Everyone consciously quieted down and stopped whispering, waiting for him to speak. .
Taoist Qingsong is a giant in the world of cultivation. He is born with a leadership style and is very popular among people. He said loudly: "Everyone, the annual academic competition is about to begin. Everyone must be in an unusual mood at this moment. The competition is all about the honor of the sect. Everyone hopes to bring glory to the sect, win competitions, and achieve more victories."
He paused and looked around. Many young disciples were high-spirited and eager to try, hoping to do well in the next competition. This was not only a win for their sect, but also a good opportunity to become famous in the world of cultivation. Everyone was very excited.
Cherish and take this competition very seriously.
Taoist Qingsong continued: "This competition is not just for these. Each of you young people is the hope of the world of cultivation. The future of the world of cultivation belongs to you, so don't have any burdens, give full play to your talents, and get the results."
Show your courage to fight.
Success or failure is not important. What is important is that you let us older generations know that you can take on the important responsibilities of the future. Now that the Yumeng Demon Tribe is ready to move, we, as human beings and cultivators, have the responsibility and obligation to eliminate it.
Yumon Demon Clan.
Today’s competition is not a matter of life and death, it is just to give everyone a chance to practice and lay a solid foundation against the Yumeng Demon Clan in the future!”
"Now I announce that the competition has officially begun!"
As soon as Taoist Qingsong finished speaking, the crowd began to boil. His words made the disciples of many sects excited. Everyone was eager to defeat their opponents, prove themselves, and bring glory to the sect. If they can shine on this stage,
He will definitely be famous in the world of cultivation, and his teachers will value him more.
Mu Yu curled his lips. What Taoist Qingsong said sounded nice and seemed fair, but in fact, the order of selecting new disciples is determined in this way every year. The sects at the top will always select new disciples with good qualifications, and the sects at the back will always choose new disciples with good qualifications.
The sects have no chance at all. Over time, the sects at the bottom, such as the Qiantian Sect, have no chance of getting ahead.
In this vicious cycle, good sects are getting better and better, while bad sects will never be able to hold their head high. If weaker sects want to rise, they can only rely on the occasional appearance of one or two dark horses with great opportunities among their disciples to achieve better results.
's ranking.
Mu Yu did not include the Luochen sect because he felt that the actual strength of his sect was enough to squeeze into the top few. Not to mention that Chengyan entered the golden elixir stage at a young age, whether it was Xiang Nan or Lan Ling'er.
They are all gifted.
But when he thought about the Qiantian Sect, Mu Yu's eyes fell on Gu Yitian, who looked indifferent next to him. Maybe this year's situation will be different!
This situation also exists. Qualification only determines the starting point of cultivating immortality. The journey of cultivation is bumpy and bumpy, and perseverance is also very important. Most people may not have good congenital conditions, but with firm will, they can surpass their peers who are more talented than them.
.
Qingsong sect disciples are not necessarily better than other sect disciples. Many Qingsong sect disciples will easily slack off because they have a good cultivation environment. Not all Qingsong sect disciples have tenacious perseverance, and this also varies from person to person.
"Are you a dark horse?"
Mu Yu looked at Gu Yitian who was sitting quietly aside. In fact, he also wanted to compete with Gu Yitian. Physical practitioners are best at close combat. Each of their punches and movements has strong power, which is enough to fight against others.
of spiritual power.
Mu Yu wanted to experience the powerful explosive power of physical training, but when he faced the Qiantian sect, perhaps Taoist Boyang would send out the disciple who was in the Qi training period, so there would be no chance. The master told him to let them go, so this
Ideas can only be put on hold for the time being.
Many Qingsong Sect disciples gathered here to watch the competition. Each Qingsong Sect disciple is much more confident than other sect disciples. They do have the capital to be confident. In addition to their outstanding talents, they can obtain the best cultivation resources in the world of cultivation. , which is beyond the reach of other sect disciples.
"Qingsong Sect, Qingsong Sect."
Mu Yu set his sights on Taoist Qingsong. At this moment, there were about ten disciples gathered around him, and they were obviously still deciding which seven people to play. Unlike the Qiantian Sect, they couldn't even make up seven people. The average cultivation level of several people is at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, which makes other sects almost give up the idea of winning.
A familiar figure suddenly raised his head and met Mu Yu's eyes. Mu Yu was stunned for a moment, and the other person was also slightly surprised, and they recognized each other. That person was Xiaohu from Dadian Village!
After two years of not seeing each other, Xiaohu has grown stronger, and his cultivation has actually entered the foundation building stage. Although he is only in the first level of foundation building, in the eyes of outsiders, he is already amazingly talented. He entered the foundation stage before he was fifteen years old. In the foundation building period, this is genius!
No one would doubt Xiaohu like they doubted Mu Yu, because Xiaohu comes from the Qingsong Sect and is personally taught by the highly respected Taoist Qingsong. It is natural to enter the foundation building stage before the age of fifteen! But Mu Yu only comes from the ridiculous Luochen Sect, which is at the bottom. Entering the foundation-building stage before the age of fifteen is just nonsense and crooked ways!
Xiaohu recognized Mu Yu. He remembered the insult to Mu Yu in the school. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth raised. When Taoist Qingsong wasn't paying attention, he made a provocative gesture towards Mu Yu.
In recent years, Xiaohu has become not only a famous figure in the Qingsong Sect, but also the entire cultivation world. Everyone is talking about Xiaohu's talent and lamenting that Xiaohu will become the next Bailang. Bailang's talent is even inferior to that of many cultivators of the older generation. , no surprise, Xiaohu will also make everyone look up to him in a few years.
Mu Yu frowned. He used to be a member of the gray disciples. If it weren't for his master, he might have been humiliated by other superior sect disciples like Deacon Xun. Thinking of Deacon Xun's life, he had to grovel in front of all cultivators. For a weak hope of becoming an immortal that could not be realized, he suddenly felt a fighting spirit. Why should the gray disciple be so humiliated? Why could the gray disciple never be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life?
He is also a member of the Gray Disciples. Even if he comes to the Luochen Sect, he is looked down upon as a Gray Disciple by people from other sects. The Luochen Sect is in poverty and decline, and their disciples are naturally discriminated against.
Usually affected by his master's indifferent character, Mu Yu thought this was nothing. But yesterday, he was looked down upon by other sects, slandered as a crooked sect, and his master was also belittled. This really made him angry, and today he was provoked by Xiao Hu. The clay figurine still has a certain amount of anger, let alone him.
"Muyu, be careful and just be yourself."
Feng Haochen felt something strange about Mu Yu, patted him on the shoulder and said. Feng Haochen seemed to know everything. When there was a slight fluctuation in Mu Yu's heart, he noticed it. He knew what Mu Yu was thinking, but he didn't Don't say anything. In his opinion, many things just follow your own will and there is no need to force it.
Mu Yu nodded, it is not an easy task for one person to fight nineteen games!
