On the day of the tournament, at the peak of Yuxu Mountain.
At this moment, the sky was cloudless, a deep blue like the sea. The fiery red sun shined in the sky, brazenly scorching the earth.
The steam rose from the ground, causing the disciples who were standing on the training ground to feel sweat on their foreheads.
It was a scorching summer day, and his reputation was real.
However, the hearts of the disciples were even hotter than the scorching sun.
In this heat, there was also a tinge of nervousness; a tinge of anticipation; a tinge of excitement; a tinge of apprehension.
They had struggled for a month today, and on the way, they passed through all the trials and tribulations. Today, they finally welcomed the final competition.
To them, this was an opportunity. It was also a cruel elimination, a challenge that surpassed themselves.
After that, he pushed aside the clouds and saw the bright moon.
If they lost, their hard work for the past few days would all be in vain. Even their face would be disgraced because of this, becoming the laughingstock of those who succeeded.
Everyone tried their best to fight it out here.
Four Elders, who had never appeared before, also appeared on the training ground today.
On the stands, Four Elders was seated, while the four chief disciples were standing beside their master. They stood up straight, solemn and respectful, looking down on the rest of the disciples who were taking the examination.
Looking up at the sky, they were all densely packed with disciples of Sword Kinesis Flight.
Because the area was limited, they could only float on their swords in the air.
His white clothes fluttered in the wind, and his black hair was like the stars in the night, dotted with ten thousand li of blue sky.
Each of them stretched their necks and stared at the center of the arena, waiting for the match to begin.
Even the esteemed elder Chen Xu, who ate nothing in the world, left the Virtual Hall strangely at this moment. Together with the Law Enforcement Hall's elder Wei Lun, they floated in a place that no one else could see, and looked in their direction.
After four tests, the original three hundred team now only had a hundred and thirty-six people left.
This was to say, thirty-six people would be eliminated after this match.
As for the hundred people that were chosen, they were decided by the Four Elders and the disciples that were chosen.
Those who passed the four tests were elites among elites. No matter who it was, they were outstanding and many of them practiced martial arts since they were young. Although they did not practice martial arts, they could still stand in a single direction.
As the head disciple of the Hongtian Taoist Place, Sang Nan was one of the head disciples of the Four Great Daoist Rites.
Rules were nothing more than drawing lots, using 68 people as a group to battle against each other.
If you win, you will receive a bit of points. If you lose, you can challenge the person that lost in its group, but if you win, you will still receive a bit of points.
In addition, the disciples that won could also be challenged. If they won, they could obtain points from their opponents, and so on. In the end, their ranking would be determined by how many points they had.
That is, the people who are ranked in the top one hundred can enter the Yuxu Sect and become its outer disciples.
Not long after, Sang Nan had finished speaking, all the chief disciples took their positions, and the competition officially began.
Su Jingqi was extremely talented, and because he had the skills, he won consecutively, firmly placing first.
As for Du Ze, who won his first battle, he was clearly at a disadvantage in the matches that followed. However, he still succeeded in breaking out of the encirclement in the end and entered the top 100 with a score of eighty, successfully obtaining a spot.
In these few days, although Huangfu Zhazha's body was not very well, he went through thick and thin, and successfully entered into the stage of the competition. In the end, he barely won in the competition, and just happened to become the one hundred disciples qualified to enter the Yuxu Sect.
As for the thirty-six disciples who had been eliminated, although they were unwilling, they could do nothing. If one had to blame them, they could only blame their inferior skills.
The match lasted for about six hours before it came to an end.
The elders took the chance to pick people, and as long as they saw a disciple with good aptitude, they would fight for him, and Su Jingqi would naturally become a popular candidate, and even Du Ze had borrowed Su Jingqi's power to become a hot topic.
Su Jingqi looked at Xuan Cheng, and suddenly remembered the lady in red whom he saw a few days ago.
He was certain that the woman was the daughter of Elder Xuan Cheng.
Suddenly, a series of plans rose up in Su Jingqi's mind.
Hong Shan was not old, so no matter how mature sshe was, he could not be more mature.
With his looks and abilities, coupled with the way Xuan Cheng viewed him, the moment he entered the Qingdi Taosit Place, he would definitely be able to enter Hong Shan's eyes.
If he could … It would definitely be of great help to him.
Thinking of this, the corner of Su Jingqi's mouth raised into a faint smile, and after speaking a few words into Du Ze's ear, he then walked over to Xuan Cheng gracefully.
Seeing Su Jingqi walking towards him, Xuan Cheng naturally knew what was going on. Hence, he stood up from his chair in extreme excitement, and stood in front of him in an imposing manner, looking at him attentively.
Without saying a word, Su Jingqi immediately flipped his sleeves in Xuan Cheng's direction, "Putong!"
A sound of kneeling could be heard, as he cupped his hands and bowed towards Xuan Cheng, "Master, please accept this disciple's bow."
Du Ze also came forward and similarly kowtowed to Xuan Cheng.
The two of them knocked twice, and then picked up the teapot that was placed on the table before, and poured a cup of tea for Xuan Cheng to drink, and paid respects to him.
The moment Xuan Cheng took the teacup and drank the tea proudly, it was done.
Thus, Su Jingqi and Du Ze successfully entered the Qingdi Taosit Place and became its outer sect disciples.
Qian Zhongli, although he was unreconciled, but since he had already gone to the Qingdi Taosit Place, no matter how unwilling they were, they could not do anything. They couldn't just fight over a disciple, it would be too dishonorable.
In reality, other than Su Jingqi, there were also many other talented and intelligent disciples.
Just as the three elders were fighting over the disciples, Ling Changfeng was still sitting in his original position.
He did not say anything, nor did he move, and those disciples were also not willing to have a warm expression on their faces. Each and every one of them involuntarily circled around Ling Changfeng to send themselves into his sect, which made Ye Xiao, who was at the side, feel helpless.
He looked at Sang Nan, Bu Gu and the others who were extremely busy, and could not help but roll his eyes, as if he had been forgotten.
No matter how calm and composed Ye Xiao was, he was still a little anxious.
He did not know what his master was thinking, nor did he know what his master was going to do next. The only thing he knew was that each and every disciple had gone to a different training hall.
Due to his trust and respect for his master, he could not question him in front of the other elders. Hence, he could only hold it in, almost suffering from internal injuries.
At this moment, there were some sounds in the air.
One of the disciples of the Qingdi Taosit Place turned to ask the disciple of the Xixuan Taosit Place: "Hey, I say, what is your master doing? Is Elder Xuan Ju not planning to accept a disciple this year? "
The Xixuan Taosit Place disciple was also at a loss, but when she heard her unkind tone, he said unhappily: "How should I know what Master is thinking?"
Then she ignored him.
Du Yun bitterly sighed, his master did indeed have a plan, it was just that this thought would only cause others to feel that it was a little lacking in thought.
Xuan Cheng was grinning from ear to ear in the stands.
Today's harvest was plentiful, and he received many talented disciples.
His eyes were looking straight at Qian Zhongli, only to see that Qian Zhongli was also aiming at him, their gazes clashing in the air, shooting out provocation sparks.
Qian Zhongli laughed in his heart. Xuan Cheng, oh Xuan Cheng, do you think that you can surpass my Hongtian Taoist Place with just Su Jingqi alone?
This was the biggest joke in the world!
Li Chunyang watched happily from the side as Qian Zhongli and Xuan Cheng fought eye to eye, but in the next moment, he noticed that something was wrong with Ling Changfeng.
There is no limit to the number of disciples in the four great sites. As long as others are willing to join your sect, you can accept them as your disciples.
As for the remaining disciples, they would be distributed evenly in the end. However, such a situation wouldn't happen because the disciples that were previously selected were the targets of the four great elders and they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to get the disciples if they were late.
However, the Ling Changfeng today was different from how he usually was, when he saw his disciples enter the other three great grounds, he did not seem anxious at all and was actually sitting there as though there was no one around him, leisurely drinking his tea, no one knew what he was thinking.
Not far away, Chen Xu saw this scene, he stroked his beard and laughed: "Wei Lun, guess what this old fellow Ling Changfeng is thinking?"
Wei Lun shook his head and laughed bitterly, "Senior elder, please enlighten me."
Chen Xu laughed, and his gaze landed on the southern side of the training ground, as he said with a deeper meaning: "They're here."
Wei Lun was suspicious, following Chen Xu's gaze, he saw three people walking towards training ground, and looking in the direction they came from, they were coming from the foot of the mountain.
After a few moments, these three figures appeared before everyone's eyes.
And it was precisely the appearance of these three people that caused the eliminated disciples, who were about to go down the mountain, to stop in their tracks.
