"Senior Brother Jin, why are you suddenly interested in this Shi Mu again? Although he has good strength, he shouldn't be able to catch your eye, right?" Huo Mao asked with a hint of flattery on his face after hearing Jin Huan's words.
:
"What do you know? Although this person seems to be a quiet person on weekdays, I learned that he quietly participated in the talent test of the Spiritual Magic Hall a month ago, and actually detected the talent of a warlock. It is said that he has no talent.
Low.??" Jin Huan's eyes flashed a few times and he said slowly.
"Warlock talent?"
Huo Mao was shocked when he heard this.
"This matter has not spread yet, and other forces do not know about it yet, so we, Zunling Pavilion, must take this opportunity to find a way to bring this person into the pavilion." Jin Huan said with a deep voice.
Huo Mao nodded hurriedly in understanding.
"Fortunately, the few people Shi Mu is familiar with in the sect have some relationship with our Zunling Pavilion. You must make friends with this person as much as possible. Even if you cannot bring him into the pavilion, you cannot let other forces take him away.
"Jin Huan thought for a while and then ordered.
"Yes, please rest assured, Senior Brother Jin." Huo Mao looked stern and nodded in agreement.
Jin Huan nodded, gave a few more instructions, and left quickly.
Huo Mao watched Jin Huan leave and felt relieved. At this moment, Shi Mu's figure also walked out of the valley. He didn't bring anything else, but he just casually picked up a steel knife in his hand.?
Huo Mao hurriedly showed a bright smile on his face and stepped forward to greet him.
…
Not long after, the two came to the valley between Peak 11 and Peak 12.
Among the green trees in the valley, there is a huge circular square, covering an area of 40 to 50 acres. On the square, there are ten arenas arranged side by side.
At this moment, the square was bustling with people, and disciples wearing black clothes had gathered densely. There were more than a thousand people, surrounding the ten arenas, and the noises could be heard one after another.
Shi Mu's eyesight was very good. Before he even reached the square, he saw from a distance that there were people competing on the ten arenas. On each arena there was a person wearing a black magic sect costume with "
The person named "B" stands nearby.
These second-level disciples are obviously the referees of this competition!
Onlookers near the ring cheered from time to time, and the whole square was filled with a fiery atmosphere.
Shi Mu was infected by the surrounding atmosphere, and he felt a little eager to try it out.
"The sect's small competition is held every three months. It is a competition specifically for our Class C disciples. Disciples of Class A and Class B will not participate. The purpose of the competition is not only to compete with each other, but also to determine the ranking of Class C disciples.
, it can be said to be a warm-up before the annual competition." Huo Mao said, reaching out and pointing somewhere in front of him.
Shi Mu followed his arm and saw that on the other side of the square, there stood a huge black stone tablet dozens of feet high. The surface of the tablet was covered with dense silver letters from top to bottom.
Shi Mulai concentrated his gaze for a moment. Although he was hundreds of feet away, he could still clearly see the silver characters on the stone tablet, which were the names of each person.
He immediately showed an interested look. After a few months of joining, he saw the ranking of Class C disciples for the first time.
The names on the stone tablet flashed with silver light. The name at the top was a person named Duan Qianli, and the names below were lined up one after another.
"Junior Brother Shi, can you see the name on the stone tablet from here?" Huo Mao couldn't help but said in surprise when he saw Shi Mu staring at the stone tablet in a daze.
"My eyesight has been very good since I was a child, and I can barely recognize the writing on it, but I can see it clearly if I get closer." Shi Mu explained with a chuckle.
While the two were talking, they walked into the square, and with Huo Mao leading the way, they pushed through the crowd and arrived near the stone monument.
There are also hundreds of people gathered here, including many new disciples who started with Shi Mu.
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, and Lan Feng stood nearby surrounded by more than a dozen disciples. She looked more confident than before. She must have gained a lot in the Blood Dragon Society.
Lan Feng was already a popular figure among the new disciples. People near the stone monument looked at the woman from time to time, and some people whispered about her.
Shi Mu glanced at him and then withdrew his gaze, looking at the ranking on the stone tablet.
"Senior Brother Huo, what kind of person is Duan Qianli, who is number one here?" Shi Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the name in the most prominent position on the stone tablet, and suddenly asked.
"Senior Brother Duan? He behaves mysteriously and rarely appears in public. I have not seen him a few times. However, he has acquired mid-term strength since the last competition, and it is said that he is also a wind magician apprentice.
"Huo Mao thought for a moment and replied.
"Double cultivation of martial arts!" Shi Mu's heart trembled. He didn't expect that the person who ranked first among Class C disciples would be in a similar situation to himself.
It seems that if these martial arts and techniques are used properly, the strength should be doubled.
"Every time there is a small competition, an innate elder and some second-level disciples will be arranged to host it, but the innate elder seems not to be here at the moment." Huo Mao glanced at a high platform near the stone tablet, where there was a
There is a wisteria seat, but it is empty at the moment.
"Senior Brother Huo, I have just joined the sect and I don't know much about the rules of the sect's competition. I wonder if you can tell me a little bit about it?" Shi Mu pondered for a moment and then asked.
"Haha! Of course. Speaking of which, although there are a lot of Class C disciples, the old disciples know each other well and are not completely sure. They generally won't challenge each other rashly. Therefore, most of the rankings are fixed. Therefore, the rules of the competition are quite simple.
The first day is a competition between junior disciples and you, the new disciples. On the second day, the new disciples challenge the senior disciples in the front. On the third day, the old disciples challenge each other. Remember, small competition
There are no restrictions on spells, martial arts, or weapons. All methods can be used except that they cannot harm lives! In short, the strong is respected!" Huo Mao briefly explained the rules of the competition.
"That's it!" Shi Mu nodded.
"This is a trivial matter. Junior Brother Shi does not need to be so polite. By the way, as far as I know, including your group of disciples, the sect has recruited a total of four batches of new disciples this year, about three to four hundred people. Today is the first day of the main
It depends on your competition." Huo Mao waved his hand, suddenly thought of something, and added.
Shi Mu's eyes fell on the bottom of the stone tablet. There were hundreds of names displayed in red fonts, clearly separated from the silver names on it. His name seemed to be ranked among the last hundred people. It seemed that these more than a hundred people were
They are the new disciples of my batch.
"Junior Brother Shi, although in the competition on the second day, once the new disciples defeat the old disciples, they can directly enter the ranking above and get a lot of rewards, but to be honest, the strength of you new disciples is
There is a big gap between him and the old disciple. It is too early to challenge him. Although Junior Brother Shi is not weak, he must be extremely careful during the competition. After all, there is no need to worry about having no firewood. If you want to win in the small competition,
To gain some benefits, first find a way to get a high ranking among the new disciples. The sect will reward the top ten new disciples." Huo Mao said earnestly.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Huo, for your advice." Shi Mu pondered, nodded, and cupped his hands again.
"Haha, Junior Brother Shi, you don't have to be polite, it's just some experience!" Huo Mao laughed.
