Lu Chen and Wang Qing rushed to the foot of the Cloudsoaring sect's mountain and discovered that there were already many people gathered there. I never would have thought that there would be so many people coming to watch the arena battle. " Lu Chen lamented.

"That's because many people are eager to break through." Wang Qing said.

"Yeah, it's good to seek a breakthrough, but not if you want to place a breakthrough on something else." Lu Chen pointed. Actually, Lu Chen did not want to have a falling out with Wang Qing, because he himself still sympathized with Wang Qing. He knew that Wang Qing did not have a bad nature, and he did not want Wang Qing to walk the wrong path.

"Is there anyone else coming up?" Lu Chen and the others heard an arrogant voice just as they were about to approach the mansion.

"Looks like another strong person has appeared this year." Wang Qing sighed.

"Oh right, Senior Martial Brother Wang, I have yet to ask how the arena battle evaluated the top 20 rankings." Lu Chen asked.

"At the start of the arena competition, all the participants will be divided into six groups. The top five participants will be accepted by the sect, but this type of competition cannot be maintained after a few rounds." Wang Qing said.

"Why?" Lu Chen asked.

"Because Junior Brother Lu, you also know that disciples who want to join the Lingyun Sect come to the foot of the mountain in advance, and there will be weaker disciples that will come together in groups." Junior Brother Lu, you also know that disciples who want to join the Lingyun Sect come to the foot of the mountain in advance, and there will be weaker disciples that will come together in groups. Wang Qing said.

"Then what is the current competition format?" Lu Chen asked.

"Right now, we are using the sort of arena matches that are similar to mortals, where a contestant who enters the arena and simultaneously defeats five people who are at the same cultivation level can win and be recorded by the sect. However, there is something special about one contestant who appears in the arena and is usually recorded by the sect after defeating two or three contestants." Wang Qing said.

"This sect's rules are really harsh, but can it be that every arena will have twenty rankers who pass the competition?" What if there were more or less? " Lu Chen asked.

"For a situation like this, the sect's main goal is to recruit elites." Wang Qing said.

"I understand. Thank you, Senior Martial Brother Wang, for answering my questions." Lu Chen said.

"If there's nothing else, everyone else would know about it." Wang Qing said. "Looks like we're late. There's already so many people gathered here." Wang Qing said as she looked at the crowd in front of her.

"But I can see that too." Lu Chen said indifferently.

"I am a rogue cultivator from Spirit State, Chen Guang." When Lu Chen and Wang Qing arrived at the bottom of the arena, a 25-year-old man, who just so happened to fly up for the group arena competition, spoke up.

"You?" The man on the stage looked at Chen Guang and said, "I am from Spirit State, Zhang Yu. Please enlighten me." After saying that, Zhang Yu took out the mid-grade magic tool, the Cloudflame Hammer, and charged towards Chen Guang.

Chen Guang obviously didn't expect Zhang Yu to be at a loss for words after introducing the item. Only when Zhang Yu's Cloud Fire Hammer arrived in front of him did he react and hurriedly used his mid-grade magic tool, Flowing Moon Saber, to block it.

Clang! Chen Guang's Lunar Blade and Zhang Yu's Flowing Cloud Hammer met and were sent flying.

"Pu" Chen Guang stared coldly at Zhang Yu.

"Brat, your reaction is a bit slow." Zhang Yu mocked.

"You only have some brute force." Chen Guang said.

"Then let me show you my brute strength." Zhang Yu pointed his hammer at Chen Guang as he spoke.

Because Chen Guang had already suffered a loss once, he didn't meet Zhang Yu head on this time around. Instead, he nimbly avoided Zhang Yu and threw out talismans from time to time to disturb Zhang Yu.

"Looks like this Chen Guang has some confidence in going up." Wang Qing said.

"That Chen Guang can't win." Lu Chen said. Although his current cultivation level couldn't compare to the two onstage because of the blockade, and he had Chen Yang's memories and the long time he spent in the mall, he could tell that Chen Guang was only looking at ease, but his true strength couldn't compare to Zhang Yu. With Zhang Yu's current strength, I think he can defeat a ninth level Refinement Stage cultivator. " Lu Chen thought.

"Junior brother Lu is right, that Chen Guang is lacking in strength." Wang Qing said.

After saying that, he turned his attention back to the arena. Although Zhang Yu wasn't injured, he was now in a very sorry state due to the talismans that Chen Guang threw at him from time to time.

"I'm going to play with you seriously." Zhang Yu said as his expression changed.

Chen Guang felt a trace of unease, but he still said, "Let's see what else you can do, Windy Slash." As he spoke, Chen Guang slashed his blade towards Zhang Yu.

"You actually have the nerve to show off in front of me with this kind of move like the Soaring Wind Slash?" Zhang Yu said in disdain. He also used his Cloud Fire Hammer to meet Chen Guang's sabre.

BOOM! Chen Guang felt his hand go numb when the two magic tools collided. He knew that his strength was not as good as Zhang Yu's, so after separating from Zhang Yu's Cloud Fire Hammer, he hurriedly retreated.

"Want to run?" I was playing with you just now, and I'm really good at speed too. " A trace of ridicule flashed across Zhang Yu's eyes. After saying that, Zhang Yu disappeared on the spot.

"Not good." "Chen Guang felt a chill behind him and wanted to dodge, but Zhang Yu's hammer had already struck his head." "You …" Chen Guang died without finishing his sentence.

"This battle, Zhang Yu wins." The Foundation Establishment stage leader of the three stages, Lin Zhou, said.

"Who else came up?" Zhang Yu said.

Hearing Zhang Yu's words, the crowd fell silent. No one dared to answer.

Lin Zhou saw that there was no activity from below and said, "Zhang Yu was directly recorded into the sect. The rest will be used for the arena battle."

Zhang Yu flew down from the arena. Wherever he went, people automatically distanced themselves from him.

"He really is a strong man. He will definitely win this year's qualification tournament." Wang Qing looked at Zhang Yu and said.

"Okay." Lu Chen agreed.

"Let's continue." As Lin Zhou's voice rang out, more and more people came up onto the stage to compete.

At night, the arena battle had only started for a third of the contestants, but seven of them had already been selected. Among them was a girl named Leng Bingxin, who was also recorded into the arena just like Zhang Yu, after two rounds. Leng Bing Xin was very decisive and defeated in three moves against her opponents. Suddenly, she was much more intimidating than Zhang Yu, and Lu Chen couldn't help but pay attention to her.
