Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

At the Medicine Celestial Valley’s waiting area, Miao Changsheng directly became a cheerleader, leading a group of fellow disciples to cheer and cheer, afraid that others did not know that Cheng Xu was a disciple of the Medicine Celestial Valley.

Unfortunately, after this battle, no one dared to challenge Cheng Xu’s arena.

Helpless, Miao Changsheng and the others could only cheer for Jian Yuxiang and Tang Xuan.

Jian Yuxiang and Tang Xuan’s performance didn’t disappoint them. They defeated several attackers in succession.

Unknowingly, the twelve advancement spots had basically been confirmed.

The Medicine Celestial Valley’s three disciples had advanced to the finals, successfully refreshing everyone’s impression of the Medicine Celestial Valley. They were completely proud!

Although the Cloud Sect had been embarrassed by Cheng Xu, their strength was indeed impressive. Yan Changfeng, Bai Ci’er, and Yang Tianqi had successfully advanced.

Speaking of which, Hu Jiaojiao’s power after gaining the Grand Moon Sword Technique was enough for her to level up. Unfortunately, her mentality had collapsed because of Cheng Xu, and she had completely lost her will to fight.

As for the Scorching Sun Sect, after Wang Xiaolun lost to Jian Yuxiang, he managed to secure another spot. In the end, just like the Shenluo Hail and the Mystic Arts Sect, two people advanced to the finals.

By the time the second round of the competition ended, it was already dusk.

The first day of the Demon Suppression Martial Competition had come to an end. The audience dispersed one after another, waiting for tomorrow’s finals.

The evening scenery on Cloud Treading Peak was beautiful, but Cheng Xu didn’t have much time to appreciate it.

His amazing performance in the first two rounds meant that he would not be able to rest tonight.

First, Bai Ci’er and Yang Tianqi congratulated each other and chatted about the past. Then, it was the celebration of the fellow disciples.

Following that, Yan Changfeng, Huyan Zan, Liu Qiao, and Xue Lingyu came forward to exchange pleasantries.

From their tone, it was obvious that they had already regarded Cheng Xu as a prodigy like them.

“To be honest, when Brother Cheng used the fifth level of the Cloud Sword Technique today, it really scared me.”

“You didn’t see Brother Yan’s expression at that time. It was simply…!” Liu Qiao of Shenluo Hall exclaimed.

Yan Changfeng, who was standing at the side, seemed slightly embarrassed. He sighed softly and said, “Regarding the matter of Brother Cheng being expelled from the Cloud Sect, I am deeply regretful.”

“That’s enough. He’s no longer a disciple of your Cloud Sect.” Huyan Zan interrupted.

Yan Changfeng sighed helplessly and continued, “It’s just that 1 don’t understand why you were left behind in the outer sect with your talent. Brother Cheng, please tell me the truth.”

Yan Changfeng’s tone was very sincere. It was obvious that he wanted to find out the problems in the sect.

However, Cheng Xu was stumped.

It was true that he had been expelled from the Cloud Sect because of Hu Jiaojiao, but it was not a problem for him to be selected into the outer sect. After all, the original body’s aptitude was indeed a little poor.

“This…” Cheng Xu’s brain was working quickly. “Maybe 1 was stimulated after being expelled from the sect. My brain suddenly became enlightened.”

“Really? There’s such a saying?” Huyan Zan and the other two clearly didn’t believe it.

“Brother Cheng, are you afraid of something?” Yan Changfeng naturally did not believe such an answer. “Or do you have something you can’t say?”

“I really don’t.” Cheng Xu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

He was clearly telling the truth, but no one believed him.

At this moment, Perfected Dan Yang and Perfected Chi Yao walked in, chatting and laughing. Huyan Lie, the leader of Scorching Sun Sect, and the First Elder of Scorching Sun Sect were also with them.

“Hey, you guys are all here?” Perfected Dan Yang teased.

Yan Changfeng and the others were surprised to see Huyan Lie and the First Elder of the Scorching Sun Sect, especially Huyan Zan. “Father, First Elder, why are you here?”

“I have something to ask Little Friend Cheng.” Huyan Lie’s expression was serious, “You little fellows can leave first. There will be plenty of opportunities to befriend in the future.”

Seeing this, Yan Changfeng and the others could only leave with doubts.

Huyan Zan thought that he could stay and observe the situation. He did not expect his father Huyan Lie to glare at him with a dignified gaze.

“Uh, is it not convenient for me to be present?” Huyan Zan said in astonishment.

Huyan Lie didn’t say anything, but silently glanced at the door.

Huyan Zan awkwardly opened his mouth and left helplessly.

After sending everyone away, Huyan Lie immediately used a restriction to seal the entire room, causing Dan Yang and Chi Yao to be confused.

“The two of you mysteriously pulled us over. What are you trying to do?” Perfected Dan Yang was confused. “Don’t tell me that Little Cheng is related to the Scorching Sun Sect.”

Cheng Xu also pretended to be confused.

“To tell you the truth, when little friend Cheng fought Hu Jiaojiao, 1 vaguely felt that the flying sword in your hand was quite extraordinary. I came personally to confirm it.” The First Elder of the Scorching Sun Sect said politely.

“What?” Chi Yao Zhenren was stunned. “Isn’t that the flying sword refined by your Scorching Sun Sect? What’s there to see?”

Hearing this, Huyan Lie and the Great Elder were also stunned.

“Fellow Daoist Chi Yao also knows the origin of that flying sword?” Huyan Lie was surprised and delighted.

“Of course I do. It’s one of the five flying swords I bought for my disciple at the Magical Equipment Exposition. Why? Is there something wrong with that flying sword?” Daoist Master Chi Yao asked without hesitation.

“Is this true, Fellow Daoist?”

Faced with their strange reactions, Perfected Chi Yao and Perfected Dan Yang were even more dumbfounded.

“What are the two of you doing?” Perfected Dan Yang was a little impatient.

Huyan Lie and the other man looked at each other and said with hurried breaths, “If that’s the case, then the problem is even bigger. Little Friend Cheng, can you show us that flying sword?”

“Of course I can.”

Cheng Xu took out his flying sword and handed it over with both hands.

The two of them carefully held the flying sword and studied it for a moment. Their expressions gradually became excited.

“It really is a flying sword that has been injected with spirit, and it has been injected five times!” The First Elder of the Scorching Sun Sect was so excited that he was incoherent.

“Eh? Seniors, you know about spirit infusion too?” Cheng Xu pretended to be surprised.”

Huyan Lie took a deep breath and asked solemnly, “1 wonder who helped this young friend infuse the spirit into this flying sword?”

“I met a fairy in Floating Immortal City before, but her whereabouts are unknown.”

“Fairy?”

“Little girl?”

“Yes, not much older than the younger generation.”

“Could she be the descendant of a certain ancestor of the sect?” Huyan Lie pondered, “What does that little girl look like?”

Cheng Xu briefly described the appearance of Yue Wanling when he first met her. He also described the process and details of the spirit infusion, making the two of them believe what he said further.

In short, his countermeasure was to push the matter to Yue Wanling.

Huyan Lie and the First Elder listened very seriously, afraid to miss any details. After they were done, they didn’t forget to express their gratitude to Cheng Xu. Dan Yang and Chi Yao were stunned for a long time. They couldn’t help but ask curiously, “What is spirit infusion?”

“Weren’t you two curious about why my magic treasures are so powerful?” Huyan Lie glanced at Cheng Xu and explained, “Because those magic treasures were all infused with the Heavenly Treasure Refining Technique. 1 just didn’t expect that there would be a cultivator who mastered the Heavenly Treasure Refining Technique today.”

Dan Yang and Chi Yao didn’t really understand.

The First Elder of the Scorching Sun Sect briefly introduced the Heavenly Treasure Refining Technique and Spirit Infusing Technique.

After hearing this, Dan Yang and Chi Yao were shocked. They hurriedly snatched the +5 flying sword from Huyan Lie and studied it carefully. “Hiss… I didn’t expect there to be such a magical refining secret technique in the world?”

“Strange. Since your sect has this secret technique, why don’t you use it?” Perfected Dan Yang expressed his doubts.

“The Heavenly Treasure Refining Technique is very difficult to understand. Except for the predecessors of the Scorching Sun Sect, no one else has been able to understand the secret of the Heavenly Treasure Refining Technique.”

Upon hearing this, Perfected Dan Yang immediately understood. To put it bluntly, it was similar to their medicinal mantras..
