Chapter 47

 Chapter 47 Competition

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Three days later, when the first ray of morning light shone on the mountains, in the square in front of the Zixia Palace at the foot of Yunlan Peak, the Liuyun Sect disciple competition held every five years was held as scheduled.

And arrived.

At dawn, the place was already crowded with people. Within a hundred miles of Liuyun Sect's jurisdiction, all major villages and towns sent important people to attend the meeting, and a larger number came spontaneously from nearby villages and towns.

When the villagers came, the scene became very lively for a while.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for more than a year. I really don't know if that little kid of mine has become a man. I'm really looking forward to it."

"Come on, Lao Li, don't be so arrogant. Who in our Li Village doesn't know that your second son, Li Feng, has reached the second level of the Blood Melting Realm within three months of his entry? Okay, that's a shame for our village chief."

"Yes, Li Feng should have been promoted to the inner sect now. When he succeeds in the future, he will be able to get an errand in the sect, and that will really make him stand out."

"I hope my second son can also grow up and become a human being..."

The chaotic crowd was stopped outside the square, but this did not prevent these villagers from looking around, searching for traces of their children.

The Liuyun Sect has always selected disciples from nearby areas. It can be said that this sect has a deep relationship with the nearby villagers, and there is a sense of harmony. The Liuyun Sect has always guarded the villages and towns with a radius of hundreds of miles, and the residents here have also joined the Liuyun Sect.

Consider it the best way out.

"Look, look, that's the boss of the horse gang, he's here too." Someone among the villagers exclaimed.

"Yes, the head of Zhaojiabao is here too."

"There is also the Feng family in Qingyang Town. Their family has always been in the silk business. It is said that the freight is all escorted by experts sent by the Liuyun Sect."

The crowd moved out of the way again and again, and many representatives of local small forces arrived in front of Zixia Palace one by one.

There are obviously more than one Liuyun Sect within a hundred miles of the Yunwu Mountain Range, but those small families and small forces all rely on the Liuyun Sect without exception. On such an important day, naturally they have to send people here.

And these high-profile people, including some village chiefs and local leaders, were all assigned seats.

Below the stone steps of Zixia Palace, rows of mahogany tables and chairs are arranged neatly. The seats in the front are naturally reserved for senior officials of Liuyun Sect, while the seats in the back are reserved for important people who come to observe.

"This year's competition is more lively than ever," the leader of the Tao Ma Gang, a bearded man with a rough appearance, said with undisguised emotion as he took a seat and looked around.

"It's all due to the good leadership of Sect Leader Liao. The Liuyun Sect has been prospering over the years, and everyone has seen it." The head of the Zhao family is an old man with white beard and hair. An old man like him who has lived for such a long time has naturally witnessed it.

How did Liuyun Sect, an ordinary sect, go from insignificance to prosperity.

"Well, the Zhao family leader is right, but I think that the five elders are also responsible for the greatest contribution. With them here, ordinary bandits would not dare to set foot within a hundred miles." The old woman of the Feng family seemed to be full of gratitude to this sect. They Feng

During his family's time, he was engaged in silk business. In this world where the powerful were divided among themselves and the strong were respected, the relationship with the Liuyun Sect could be described as a bitter one.

These people here have been dealing with the senior officials of Liuyun Sect all year round, and they also have many business contacts and cooperation. This kind of situation is sparse and common in Tianlong Continent and can be seen everywhere.

Soon, the top leaders of the Liuyun Sect also came out, from the sect leader, the five elders, to the deacons and handymen, all present.

"Come on, come on, those younger generations are coming out!"

Immediately afterwards, nearly a thousand disciples, who were the protagonists of this competition, also came to Qingshi Square under the leadership of a deacon. Many villagers suddenly became excited. Many people were shouting, and some women and children were secretly wiping their tears. Because I saw my sons, daughters, brothers and sisters.

In front of the temporary arena built in Qingshi Square, many disciples also had red faces. Many of them had joined the sect less than five years ago. This was the first time they had seen such a scene, and they were very excited for a moment.

"It's really lively..." Among the crowd of inner disciples, Shen Chen stood in an inconspicuous corner and couldn't help but click his tongue in his heart.

Scenes like this were rarely seen in previous lives, and the most important thing is that such a grand event is primitive and direct, without colorful embellishments, but it can stir people's hearts.

Shen Chen glanced at every fellow disciple around him, and their faces were full of excitement that he had never shown before. Suddenly, Shen Chen couldn't help but understand the meaning of this kind of sect competition. Only in this way, these disciples Only when you have a goal in mind that you can keep moving forward.

"Brother, big brother, look, that's my grandfather, and my little sister, she's here too," just as Shen Chen was thinking to himself, Wang Yue on the side shouted to him, as excited as picking up several bags of body tempering Dan.

"Haha, I saw it." Shen Chen smiled and nodded.

Among the crowd outside the square, he saw an old man pulling a little girl forward, his face full of hope. Those two people were Wang Hao and Wang Zixin who had saved him. They were also older. Came from far away from Chenjiagou.

Even before he and Wang Yue became brothers, Shen Chen had a good impression of the old man and the young man. In addition to the grace of saving lives, their simplicity also made Shen Chen, a guy who was born as a gangster, unable to help but be moved.

Moreover, in Shen Chen's impression, Wang Hao's family was almost impoverished. He obviously had very high medical skills and could have opened a medical clinic in a big town outside to make a lot of money. However, the old man did not do that and stayed in the Chen family. Gou treats illnesses and saves lives without any reward.

Even Shen Chen had to admire such a pure and kind nature.

"We must get ranked in the top five, we can't embarrass them!" Thinking to himself, Shen Chen patted Wang Yue on the shoulder and said seriously.

"Yeah!" Wang Yue nodded heavily.

At this moment, under the gaze of many eyes, the sect master Liao Yan, who was sitting in the middle of the first row of seats in front of the Zixia Palace steps, had already stood up, bowed his hands to everyone present, and said with a loud smile: "Thank you, everyone." I would like to express my gratitude to you, Liao, for coming to participate in this sect’s disciple competition. Now, Liao will not say any more nonsense, let’s start the competition.”

"Yes, Sect Master!" Situ Chuan then gave a slight salute to Liao Yan, then swept out and landed on the temporary arena.

Situ Chuan is one of the five elders of Liuyun Sect and is also the eldest being. It is naturally appropriate for him to preside over this competition.

His shrewd eyes swept around the nearly a thousand disciples in the audience, and then the old man's faint voice sounded: "The general rules are still the same as in previous years. There are no restrictions on means in the arena, but one thing must be observed... That is

Don’t kill until the point is reached, otherwise you will be severely punished. In addition, due to the large number of disciples participating in this year’s competition, the sect leader decided to add an additional round of elimination assessment. Only the last two hundred disciples can challenge the sect ranking. Of course.

Now, the disciples who have previously ranked in the top ten can choose whether to participate in this link. Those who are unwilling to participate can only wait for the final competition."

After a pause, the old man continued: "As for the method of elimination assessment, it is very simple. Have you seen the woods over there? I have placed a total of two hundred red sandalwood tablets in it. I will give you one stick of incense to see if you can

The disciple who brings out the red sandalwood tablet will be considered as passing the assessment!"

As he spoke, the old man pointed with his skinny fingers toward a small forest several hundred meters away. There were still several deacons guarding the place, obviously to prevent anyone from fishing in troubled waters in advance.

Situ Chuan's voice fell, and soon, the nearly a thousand famous Yun Sect disciples under the arena began to commotion.

"What does it mean to talk more about elimination and assessment?"

"You are stupid. What Elder Situ means is that if you want to enter the ring, you must first obtain qualifications."

"This... this is too harsh. I thought everyone would have a chance to show their face..."

Some disciples who were not confident in their own strength were all disappointed at this moment. In previous sect competitions, basically everyone had the opportunity to step onto the stage, but this year, there were only two hundred such opportunities.

This made many young boys and girls who came out of the small ravine look ashen, and their enthusiasm for showing off their skills in front of their families, relatives and friends suddenly cooled down.

But where the inner disciples gathered, more people looked on with cold eyes, and many even had disdain and sneers on their faces.

"It seems that the superiors have shown some sympathy to us this year. Finally, we no longer have to fight against those guys with mediocre cultivation."

"Yeah, you don't have to suffer through wheel battles anymore. There's not much fun in fighting those country bumpkins."

"I really hope this rule will continue in the future..."

For the inner sect disciples with outstanding strength, such an assessment is obviously in line with their wishes. In the sect competitions in previous years, every disciple could challenge opponents he was dissatisfied with, and some disciples with mediocre cultivation levels, in order to

When he emerges, he will not hesitate to challenge those who are stronger than him, even if he knows he will lose.

It is said that five years ago, there was a very unlucky inner disciple who was challenged more than a hundred times in succession, and finally fell down from exhaustion.

But in this way, it is inevitable that many disciples will be deprived of the opportunity to show their faces, which is somewhat cruel to them.

"Okay, stop inking and let's get going. Remember, you only have one stick of incense. Another point is that multiple people are not allowed to join forces in the woods. There will be deacons monitoring you throughout the process!"

Just as nearly a thousand disciples were discussing, suddenly, Situ Chuan on the stage spoke again. The old man's voice was like a trumpet. In the next moment, all the disciples present from Liuyun Sect rushed towards the small woods a hundred meters away.

There are only 200 rosewood cards. This situation of too many monks and too few people makes many people unwilling to lag behind.
