Early the next morning, the Huashan group gathered at the top of the mountain.
In addition to the two contestants Chen Xinzhu and Meng Huai, there were also a total of 22 inner disciples including Xue Jiang, Yang Jianzhang, Zheng Ning and others accompanying them.
Of course, the purpose of their trip, in addition to being a support group for Chen Xinzhu, was also to observe and learn.
In each competition, in addition to the contestants, the audience can also gain a lot.
This has also made the competition one of the most lively events in the martial arts world today, with admirers gathering at every event.
Not long after, Yan Ding and Kong Tianhe came hand in hand.
After looking at everyone, Kong Tianhe said nothing.
"Set off."
Soon, the group descended from Huashan Mountain and rushed to the Shaolin Temple in Songshan Mountain, where this competition for the top talent list was held.
…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the early morning, on the top of Shaoshi Mountain in the hinterland of Songshan Mountain, a gray-robed monk slowly pushed the huge bell pestle, hitting the huge bronze bell one after another.
The rich and melodious bells sounded one after another, spreading dozens of miles away.
On the mountain road of Songshan Mountain, there are countless bald monks in gray robes, making a single-palm salute with their left hand and holding a Shaolin stick tightly in their right hand, guiding the visitors coming up the mountain.
People from all over the world come here either alone, in groups of two or three, or in groups.
"Brother Zhou, are you here too?"
"Of course I won't miss such a grand event."
"Having said that, the distance between Yunzhou and Yuzhou is so far that I thought you wouldn't come this time."
"Haha, I was already prepared. I left Yunzhou a few months ago and came to Yuzhou."
"I see, you are indeed Brother Zhou."
"Ha ha……"
…
At the intersection going up the mountain, Chen Jing, dressed as a swordsman, looked around and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, there are so many people!"
"Normal." The companion next to him replied.
"Um?"
"The number of people is increasing every time."
"So that's it."
At this moment, a huge movement suddenly came from the crowd not far away from Chen Jing and Chen Jing.
"Wow wow wow wow! It's the Wu-Tang Clan!!"
Chen Jing turned around and looked around, only to see a group of Wudang disciples uniformly wearing blue robes slowly approaching at the intersection up the mountain.
"It looks full of aura." Chen Jing was a little surprised.
"It seems like there are three people from the Wudang Clan participating in this competition, right?" a Jianghu guest not far away asked.
"Well, among them is Taoist Master Tong Ze, who is ranked third on the list. The Wudang Sect is still strong this time." Someone on the side replied casually.
"It was a pity for Taoist Priest Tong Ze to be in the last session. If Fairy Ziyue, a big dark horse, hadn't suddenly emerged, he would still have had a chance to compete for the top spot on the list."
"I also watched it at the time. It was a pity. I felt that Ziyue Fairy's martial arts was a bit restrained by Taoist Tong Ze."
"It depends on whether Taoist Tong Ze can take revenge this term."
"Well, I'm quite optimistic about Taoist Tong Ze."
While Chen Jing was listening with great interest, another huge exclamation suddenly came from not far away.
"Wow wow wow, Mingjiao has arrived too!!"
In an instant, the people around him burst into great enthusiasm.
Thanks to the changes in the Tianbang some time ago, the reputation of Mingjiao has obviously reached a new level.
Three people in the top ten!!
Everyone will lose their voice.
Not to mention, Mingjiao’s lineup this time to compete in the rankings is equally impressive.
At the intersection going up the mountain, Taoist priest Tong Ze, who was wearing a green robe, saw a group of Mingjiao people coming from the opposite side, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Are you here?..."
Chen Jing and his companions crowded among the crowd and watched the Mingjiao people approaching from a distance.
"Is that the master of Mingjiao?" Chen Jing murmured.
Beside Chen Jing, countless people in the world were buzzing and talking.
"Mingjiao...is here!!"
"The Mingjiao where Fairy Ziyue lives?"
"Mingjiao? Let me see."
"Those in front, give way!"
"I also want to take a look at Fairy Ziyue, who ranks second on the fairy list."
"I want to see Li Yi, a real man."
"..."
"Ziyue Fairy is second on the popular list, and Lion King Liyi is eighth on the popular list. Two of them were in the top ten of the previous session. Their style is still the same."
"Looking forward to their performance this year."
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm for the Ming Cult, Chen Jing felt a little envious and subconsciously clenched the sword in his hand.
…
Among the Mingjiao group, Zhi Xinyan, who was following the junior sister, felt a little uncomfortable.
"I don't like being so noticeable..."
Hearing this, Guang Zijin, who was walking aside, shook his head gently.
"Junior Sister Zhi, as a member of the Ming Cult, you should get used to this kind of situation earlier."
Zhi Xinyan: "..."
On the top of the mountain, several monks and knights gathered together and chatted casually.
"Master Xuan Ning, I wonder if there will be a dark horse like Fairy Ziyue in this competition?"
Xuan Ning put his hands together in salute and replied softly: "Amitabha, the poor monk has been practicing martial arts and worshiping Buddha in the temple. He doesn't know much about these things, which makes you laugh."
Hearing this, a middle-aged man in a blue shirt not far away chuckled and said.
"Since Master Xuanning doesn't want to say anything, how about you listen to my opinion first?"
"Oh, I wonder what Brother Murong has to say?" someone asked with interest.
"Brother Murong, please speak."
The middle-aged man in blue shirt shook his head and said with a chuckle: "I can't say much, just some gossip."
"Oh, Brother Murong's gossip? Now I'm even more interested. Tell me now."
After pondering for a moment, the middle-aged man in blue shirt looked at the sky in the distance and said slowly.
"As far as I know, the Duan family in Dali has a daughter named Duan Lian. She is nineteen years old, but her strength is extremely good. There is news that this girl has become the Duan family's Yi Yang Finger, and she should compete for the top spot in this ranking.
The number one dark horse."
Hearing this, many innate masters around were startled.
"The Duan family's unique skill, Yi Yang Finger??"
"This is really unbelievable. You can practice Yiyang Finger in the Houtian realm??"
Everyone sighed, even Master Xuan Ning, the master of the Earth Ranking, made a Buddhist salute.
Without giving everyone much time to react, the middle-aged man in blue shirt from the Murong family continued.
"The second dark horse is Chen Xinzhu, a direct disciple of Grandmaster Yan of the Huashan School."
After hearing this, everyone present was not surprised.
Chen Xinzhu was accepted as the disciple of the leader of Huashan, so he was naturally very talented, and his record was extremely impressive. Even the rankings said he was in the top ten.
Naturally, they would not look down upon Chen Xinzhu.
In everyone's opinion, Chen Xinzhu of the Huashan Sect may indeed be ranked in the top ten, but the specific ranking is difficult to say...
Seeing everyone's expressions, the middle-aged man in blue suddenly showed a wicked smile.
"As far as I know, this Chen Xinzhu seems to have mastered the Huashan School's Zixia Magic Skill..."
Hearing this, everyone present fell into silence again.
"Brother Murong, I wonder if your 'gossip' this time is really hearsay?" someone asked wordlessly.
"Who knows?" the middle-aged man in blue shirt replied casually.
"Amitabha, even this poor monk didn't expect that there would be so many outstanding talents this year." Master Xuan Ning clasped his hands together and sighed.
"I still don't believe it. One is enough, but there is a second one? Is the secret skill so easy to practice?"
"I can't believe it either..."
The first one can be said to be accidental, but what about the second one?? Or accidental??
And, since there is a second one, will there be a third? A fourth?
But the secret skill is so easy to learn!!
This is what most people present think, and they still don't believe it.
