It seemed that if the young man hadn't shouted fast enough, he might have lost an arm or a leg.
After admitting defeat, the young man didn't wait for the big man in brocade robes to announce the winner, and immediately jumped off the ring in despair.
This caused a commotion in the audience under the ring, and they couldn't help but start talking.
"Junior Brother Bai is so powerful. He easily defeated two opponents with just one wind blade technique. I wonder if there are other methods!"
"How come his wind blade technique can be released so quickly? It makes me feel like there is no need to recite the spell at all. The power seems not comparable to that of ordinary wind blades."
"Idiot, you haven't seen it yet. Junior Brother Bai's Wind Blade Technique has reached the rumored Dzogchen realm. He may even have a magic seal condensed into his spiritual consciousness!"
"Shu Yin, what is this?"
"This..., I don't even know about the magic seal, so what's there to talk about? I'll just go back and ask the elders about it myself, and I'll find out."
…
Such a commotion on the first stage naturally attracted the attention of several other disciples near the stage. Some disciples of the Barbarian Ghost Sect who had not paid attention to this area just now also came over curiously and asked a few questions.
"Hey, this...isn't this Senior Brother Bai! I...you read that right, Senior Brother Bai is actually standing on the first stage. Doesn't the flag behind him represent the ranking of the ninth core disciple?"
The disciples came over curiously to see the lively Xue Shan. After casually glancing at the stone platform, they were so shocked that they began to speak incoherently.
Wan Xiaoqian and several other inner disciples of the Jiuying lineage next to her were stunned when they saw Liu Ming's face clearly on the stage.
Also surprised were some other Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples who knew Liu Ming.
The most shocking one among them was Mu Yunxian, a beautiful young woman who knew something about Liu Ming.
After this woman had just defeated a challenger on Du Hai's side, she took a breather and walked around to other arenas. As a result, she caught a glimpse of Liu Minglai on the first arena.
As a result, Mu Yunxian's face was extremely wonderful for an instant, but one can imagine the ecstasy that followed.
Liu Ming really has the strength to enter the ranking in front of the Taiyin Monument. Even the head of the Barbarian Ghost Sect has to consider whether to replace the Gaochong Furnace Cauldron.
If Liu Ming can enter the top three core disciples and come back alive from the life and death trial, his niece will definitely be safe and sound. The upper echelons of the sect will never allow another disciple who has made great contributions to the sect to have a close relationship with her.
People who are harmed by their own people in the sect.
Just when Mu Yunxian was overjoyed, no one came up to challenge him in the first arena.
After the golden-robed spiritual master placed the quicksand in the upper half of the hourglass and dropped the last grain of sand, he announced on the spot that the first stage challenge was completely over.
The ten banner disciples on the stage have temporarily obtained temporary rankings. No one has the right to challenge them before the second round of challenges begins.
Hearing the Jinpao Spirit Master's announcement, many disciples in the audience looked at Liu Ming and the ten people above with envy and admiration.
If we go by past practices, I am afraid that nearly half of the ten disciples on this stone platform can still maintain their top ten rankings after the competition.
Even if other core disciples fall out of the top ten in the second round of ranking competition, they will still be ranked very high on Taiyin.
Liu Ming and others also stepped down one after another after the Jinpao Spirit Master made the announcement.
"Junior Brother Bai, you have done a great job for our Jiuying."
"Senior Brother Bai, congratulations. You are the first disciple of our lineage to enter the top ten rankings in the recent competitions.
"Haha, if that's the case, how dare you look down on the Jiuying lineage so much when looking at the other lines!"
…
As soon as Liu Ming stepped off the ring, Xue Shan, Wan Xiaoqian and several other Jiuying Mountain inner disciples immediately gathered around and said excitedly.
Liu Ming naturally responded modestly, but at this moment, a cold voice came over:
"Junior Brother Bai, you really hide your secrets. However, don't think that you can really stay among the top ten disciples just because you have condensed the wind blade seal. As far as I know, there are not many disciples who are currently ranked lower.
Don’t save it, and prepare to use your true skills in the second round of challenges. If you want to celebrate, you should wait until the entire competition is over."
However, Gao Chong came over accompanied by Shi Jian, his wife and others, and said coldly to Liu Ming from a distance. Mu Mingzhu, who was standing next to him, still looked at Han Li with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Obviously, she was extremely shocked when Liu Ming entered the top ten rankings.
"Junior Brother Gao, whether I can stay in the top ten will be known soon after tomorrow's second round of challenges." Liu Ming turned to look at Gao Chong and said lightly.
"Okay, Gao will wait and see." Gao Chong's face was extremely gloomy. After giving Liu Ming a hard look, he turned around and left with the others.
Xue Shan and other Jiuying Mountain disciples nearby naturally heard the contradictory words between Liu Ming and Gao Chong, and couldn't help but look at each other.
As the competition in the first arena ended, the other arenas also gradually came to an end, and the challenges ended one after another.
By the time it was getting dark, no one was on the last stage.
At this time, the head of the Barbarian Ghost Sect flew out from the jade platform and announced in the air that the first round of the competition was truly over, and tomorrow the ladder ranking challenge among the core disciples would begin.
All the disciples dispersed in a hurry.
This so-called ladder ranking challenge means that one hundred disciples are divided into ten ladders. Each person can challenge one of the ten disciples in front of him. If successful, he will enter the next ladder ranking of disciples and can still challenge a higher ladder ranking.
If you lose, you will stay in your original ranking position.
In this way, the last ten and the top ten only need to challenge or accept the challenge.
Of course, as Gao Chong said, there are many disciples who did not use their true skills in the previous challenges. Only after this round is over can the approximate ranking among the disciples be determined.
Naturally, Liu Ming did not dare to neglect. After leaving Shishan and returning to his residence, he planned to recharge his batteries.
But not long after, a disciple from outside came to the courtyard and spread the word that Gui Ruquan had let him pass.
Liu Ming was not too surprised by this. After thinking for a moment, he agreed and walked out of the house, flew straight to the top of the mountain and flew away.
After a while, he appeared in the meeting hall on the top of the mountain.
There, in addition to Gui Ruquan, Zhu Chi, and Taoist nun surnamed Zhong, Ishikawa also stood aside with his hands tied.
Liu Ming hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Congtian, you don't have to be polite, just get up. You did a good job this time, and you were able to enter the current top ten disciple rankings. This is really an unexpected surprise for the three of us." Gui Ruquan saw Liu Ming coming in.
, said immediately with a smile.
Zhu Chi and Taoist nun surnamed Zhong also looked at Liu Ming with smiles on their faces.
"I don't dare. This disciple is just lucky enough to do this." Liu Ming replied respectfully.
"Haha, if you can get away with other things, can you be lucky with your later cultivation as a spiritual disciple and the Great Perfection Wind Blade Technique? It's me and your two uncles. I didn't know you had such qualifications in magic cultivation, otherwise the resources would have been lost long ago.
If I lean towards you and give you a few more pointers, I believe your strength will be even better." Gui Ruquan said with some pity.
"Disciple only learned not long ago that it is very difficult to condense the magic seal. Otherwise, I must report the truth to Master Gui." Liu Ming naturally behaved very honestly.
"You don't have to worry about anything. The three of us don't care whether you really have the rumored Tianhui spirit body or whether you have the current cultivation level and condensed magic seal due to other reasons. I just want to ask you, how do you score in tomorrow's competition?"
Are you sure you will stay in the top ten?" Gui Ruquan waved his hand and asked with a solemn expression.
"It's hard to say this. But if there hadn't been a monster that appeared to challenge the disciples, it would have been seven or eight points." Liu Ming's eyes flashed and he replied.
"Seven or eight points! Haha, it seems that besides the Wind Blade Technique Seal, you have other methods left." Zhu Chi said with a smile when he heard this.
Gui Ruquan also showed a very satisfied look.
"Very well, let me ask you now, are you willing to become my disciple? I plan to accept you as my direct disciple!" Taoist nun Zhong, who had been silent until now, said something that shocked Liu Ming.
Although he vaguely expected that coming here this time would probably benefit him, he was still quite surprised to be directly accepted as a direct disciple by Taoist Aunt Zhong.
But it is naturally a dream for him to become the personal disciple of a spiritual master.
"Of course I am willing, Congtian pays homage to the master!"
Liu Ming's thoughts changed slightly, and he bowed to the Taoist nun and said respectfully.
"Very good, get up. Although you are only a third-level spiritual disciple, since you have been able to cultivate to the late stage of spiritual disciple and condense magic seals, there may be a chance of advancing to spiritual master. Will you meet your uncle Gui again?"
Let’s meet Uncle Zhu once.” Taoist nun surnamed Zhong said with a smile when she saw this situation.
"Meet Uncle Gui and Uncle Zhu!" Liu Ming immediately bowed respectfully to Gui Ruquan and Zhu Chi.
"Senior Nephew Bai, from now on you are the direct disciple of our Jiuying lineage. Get up quickly." Gui Ruquan smiled slightly.
Zhu Chi also waved his hand and asked him to stand up.
"Since Congtian has paid homage to you two again, and the titles have been changed, it shouldn't be in vain." Taoist nun surnamed Zhong suddenly chuckled and said to the other two people.
"Hey, junior sister, don't worry. Since Congtian has been accepted by you, a meeting gift is indispensable. I have three red flame beads, so give them to nephew Bai. When you encounter a strong enemy, throw them out, maybe they can
I'll save your life." After Zhu Chi said hey, he took out a small iron box from his sleeve and threw it to Liu Ming.
"I am not as generous as my junior brother. I only have a bottle of blood marrow elixir in my hand that can temper the blood essence." After Gui Ruquan smiled, he also took out a small bottle as white as jade and handed it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming was naturally overjoyed and thanked him for the reward. He carefully put the two things away without opening them in a hurry.
