Chapter 54

Sky Peak

The rain gradually became smaller and fell sporadically and sparsely; between the clouds in the distance, a ray of soft sunlight emerged, with a hazy color like an ink painting.

The rainwater penetrated by the afterglow has a hint of brightness.

After the violent storm, the two figures on the Wutai looked tall and straight.

Everyone in the audience held their breath.

"you win."

Duan Xiaolong's difficult words broke the silence of the scene.

And all the disciples showed surprise on their faces, with a feeling that they still have something to say.

Just when Duan Xiaolong spat out a mouthful of blood and his figure shook, all the disciples lost their voices in shock.

"Defeated!"

"Duan Xiaolong actually lost?"

Some disciples seem to be in a state of despair, and it seems difficult to accept this reality.

really.

Duan Xiaolong is a legend in the outer sect.

As early as two years ago, he was able to climb to the top of the outer sect, and he can be said to be the uncrowned king of the outer sect.

It is said.

Duan Xiaolong's aptitude is very average, he is only a half-spiritual body. But he has an amazing comprehension, so he chose the extremely difficult "Thundering Knife" to comprehend the storm, thunder and lightning in the name of mission all year round.

There were many disciples who admired and worshiped Duan Xiaolong.

"Senior Brother Duan's knife was extremely powerful, how could he lose to him?"

"That knife showed a few traces of the true meaning of the thunder knife, and it was even more powerful in the wind and rain."

Some disciples off the field couldn't figure it out at all.

Why, Duan Xiaolong will lose?

If you look at the power of the crowd, Duan Xiaolong's knife seems to be slightly better than Chen Yu's punch.

"As expected of Duan Xiaolong, who is also a semi-spiritual body, you can go this far. The power of the knife just now is slightly better than my 'Fist Force Condensation Sha'."

Chen Yu took a deep breath.

Since the "Bronze Statue Technique" was completed, it was the first time he was wounded from the front.

Duan Xiaolong was the first one.

Some elders of the sect present, including Sect Master Yunyue, were shocked by the stunning confrontation between the two just now.

"The strength of the fist is condensed! This level of martial arts. It is difficult to do it even in the ordinary period of viscera refining, unless the "Yunsha Fist" has been completed and some of the true meaning has been comprehended."

"Duan Xiaolong actually comprehended a trace of the artistic conception of thunder. The knife just now brought out a few traces of the power of thunder and lightning."

Some elders and high-ranking people were amazed.

Even in the inner sect, it is extremely rare for people who can achieve "fist strength to condense evil spirits" and comprehend the "artistic conception of thunder".

But these two appeared at the same time in the peak battle of the outer sect.

"Duan Xiaolong lost such a stunning strike?"

Elder Baixu Nangong murmured.

In his opinion, Duan Xiaolong's sword is more powerful with the help of the right time and place.

"You and I should understand. In real life-and-death battles, sometimes it's not about whoever's attack is stronger, and whoever can survive. It can only be said that we all underestimated the power of the "Bronze Statue Technique"."

Elder Mao chuckled.

yes.

Elder Nangong nodded, he naturally understood this truth.

Duan Xiaolong's knife was slightly better than Chen Yu's because of his superiority in cultivation base and internal energy, plus the wind and rain weather, which added to the power of "Thundering Knife".

However, he is only slightly better than the first line in terms of attack.

But.

In terms of defense, Duan Xiaolong was far behind Chen Yu.

The two of them both showed their strength beyond the next level, and their power was about the same.

And the result is.

Duan Xiaolong was severely wounded and vomited blood; Chen Yu only suffered a little trauma, which was nothing to his tyrannical self-healing body.

There is another little-known point.

Duan Xiaolong can launch at most one or two times for the higher-level attack just now. If the first time is seriously injured, it will be difficult to launch the second time.

Chen Yu is different.

It gave him the feeling that the attack of "Fist Force Condensed Sha" would not be a big problem if he played the attack several times in a row, at most he would be weaker afterwards.

This is similar to the barrel effect: how much water a bucket can hold depends on the shortest piece of wood it has.

"No. 99 Chen Yusheng, temporarily ranked first."

The old man in black robe took a deep look at Chen Yu, and pointed his finger at the formation board.

Swish!

Chen Yu's name jumped directly to the first place, becoming the only number one.

Although it is "temporarily ranked first", everyone knows that Chen Yu is already the number one disciple of the outer sect after winning consecutive victories against Nan Gongli and Duan Xiaolong!

He can even be regarded as an inner disciple.

Zongmen ancestral rules: As long as you are the first in the competition, you can automatically become an inner disciple.

"Chen Yu, it really succeeded..."

In the audience, Le Feng, Tong Yuling, Hu Yiba and others had mixed expressions, either pleased or emotional.

Especially Le Feng, the mood is the most complicated.

From the Iron Brown Bear battle, he witnessed Chen Yu's growth from a raw rookie to becoming the number one in the outer sect.

The strong ones all start as rookies.

Back then, when Chen Yu faced the iron brown bear for the first time, he was so embarrassed.

"How is it possible...he actually reached the top..."

Wang Lingyun was almost unsteady in his standing, and panic arose in his heart, and his heart beat for a while.

He actually made an enemy against such an opponent?

Looking at the battle just now, it was very easy for Chen Yu to kill him instantly.

Wang Lingyun felt a chill in his heart. After Chen Yu became an inner disciple, how could he gain a foothold in the sect?

"Could it be that I lost just like that! No way! I'm not reconciled!"

Wang Lingyun took a deep breath.

In his eyes, there was a hint of viciousness: "Chen Yu, there must be a big secret in you, and I will definitely find it out!"

this moment.

Wang Lingyun, who was completely defeated, found a chance to bring down Chen Yu.

...

The outer gate competition is not over yet.

Chen Yu's winning streak against Nan Gongli and Duan Xiaolong only established his number one position.

Then, the top three, top ten, and top twenty rankings must be established. Especially the top three, top ten, and fierce battles.

"Brother Yu, you really succeeded."

In Mu Xueqing's bright eyes, there was a hazy mist, and her face was filled with happiness and joy, with a moving and pure beauty.

Chen Yu defeated Nan Gongli and Duan Xiaolong in a row, and with his unstoppable strength, he created miracles time and time again and climbed to the top of the Outer Sect.

Witnessing this scene, her expectations came true, suddenly like a dream.

"I'll help you bandage the wound."

Mu Xueqing couldn't bear to see the scars and blood on Chen Yu's shoulder.

Snapped!

But just as she stretched her plain hand to her shoulder, Chen Yu subconsciously slapped her away.

That powerful force made Mu Xueqing's hands burn hot, and her delicate body swayed.

Although Chen Yu only moved subconsciously and did not use force deliberately, the strength was not small.

"Brother Yu, you..."

Mu Xueqing froze and looked at Chen Yu in disbelief.

Could it be that.

Now that Chen Yu has become famous in the competition, he has become an inner disciple, his vision has become higher, and he has moved on, or he still remembers the past.

"Xueqing, don't misunderstand—"

Chen Yu felt helpless for a while.

He just didn't want his abnormal physical self-healing power to be exposed to the public.

now.

The bloodstains and scars on Chen Yu's shoulders were just a cover-up. The wound inside had healed, and even the marks were fading.

"Hmph! Boy surnamed Chen, if you bully Xueqing, don't blame me for bullying the younger."

A lingering male voice interrupted Chen Yu's words.

The Seventh Prince, dressed in gorgeous robes, came behind the two of them at some unknown time.

call!

A storm-like breath oppressed Chen Yu, causing his complexion to change, and his breath to stagnate.

"The period of viscera refining, at least the late period of viscera refining!"

Chen Yu's heart shuddered, and he couldn't help but look at the man beside Mu Xueqing.

In the ear, the low voices of "Seventh Prince", "Huang Fu Lin" and other surrounding disciples came.

The seventh prince, Huang Fulin!

The identity of this gorgeously dressed man shocked the audience.

"Huang Fulin, isn't that one of the true disciples of our sect?"

"With his status, he actually came to watch the 'Outer Sect Grand Competition'. It seems that he is standing out for Mu Xueqing."

A group of disciples ignited the flame of gossip.

Chen Yu, Mu Xueqing, and the Seventh Prince.

What kind of entanglement is there between these three people?

"Seventh Prince? I'm sorry, this is just a private matter between me and Junior Sister Mu. You are an outsider, so don't get involved."

Chen Yu did not back down.

"How dare you..."

The seventh prince, who was always graceful, showed sullenness, and said in a deep voice: "In our land of Chu, your Chen family is just a small force."

threaten?

Chen Yu is indeed afraid, but he is not a fool.

No matter how powerful the royal family of Chu is, no matter how influential it is, it is limited to the secular world.

In Kunyun Continent, the sect is the master!

Now, Chen Yu is already an inner disciple of Yunyue Sect. Under the same family, it is a big taboo for the seventh prince to retaliate against his family without reason.

After all, many sect members, including elders and hall masters, have secular families behind them.

"As well as Junior Sister Mu, we have parted ways long ago. I hope you don't cause me any more trouble in the future. I will return those two Qi Recovery Pills to you."

Chen Yu said rightly.

All kinds of troubles brought by Mu Xueqing really annoyed Chen Yu.

Before climbing to the summit, he wore the hat of "eating soft rice" for a long time, attracting all kinds of inexplicable enemies, and now he has attracted a seventh prince.

Maybe it's going to bring the Chen family into danger of extermination!

"you……"

Mu Xueqing's delicate body flickered, her bright face was dull and unbelievable.

This is not Brother Chen Yu who was obedient to her before.

Especially the unfamiliar title of "Junior Sister Mu" made Mu Xueqing feel like falling into an ice cellar, unable to speak a thousand words.

this moment.

Her eyes were rosy, and she wanted to cry: the previous parting was due to family pressure. In the first year or two after entering the outer sect, the family kept putting pressure on her, and Xueqing struggled to support her. Facing your pursuit, she could only stay away from her.

then.

Xueqing couldn't bear to see you being oppressed and humiliated in the sect.

If you insist on it, you will not only delay your own future, but also make your beloved suffer more suffering.

It's better to advise you to go back to the world and part ways.

Now, you and I have entered the inner sect, and we can practice martial arts together, hopefully breaking the shackles of the world.

Why.

Now you don't even give me a chance?

finally.

Mu Xueqing drifted away without saying a word.

"Xueqing!"

The Seventh Prince gave Chen Yu a hard look back, and chased after him.

Chen Yu stared at Mu Xueqing's departure. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved from a heavy burden.

This small episode did not affect the final song of the "Outer Sect Competition", and the next challenge unfolded fiercely.

finally.

The ranking competition came to an end.

In the final battle, Nan Gongli lost to Duan Xiaolong by a narrow margin, and came second and third.

Swish!

On the formation board, the rankings of the disciples are clear at a glance:

First place, Chen Yu

Second place, Duan Xiaolong

The third place, Nan Gongli

Fourth place, Tong Yuling

Fifth place, Lefeng

The sixth place, Hu Yiba

Seventh place, Yuan Beitong

Eighth place, Cheng Yun

Ninth place, Huang Yuan

Tenth place, Cao Lei
