This year's Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition is very different from the previous Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition.
In the past, the rules of the Seven Meridians martial arts competition were usually thirty-two people participating in the battle, including eight from Tongtian Peak, and four from each of the other six Meridians.
In this way, there are thirty-two people together.
And these thirty-two people also represent the peak combat power of the younger generation of Qingyun Sect in disguise, and are the future leaders or elders of Qingyun Sect.
But this time the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition is slightly different.
In terms of the number of disciples, restrictions have been relaxed, and the restrictions have even been relaxed twice as much as originally planned.
The original plan was to increase the number of people.
Doubling the thirty-two to sixty-four.
Tongtian Peak sent ten people to participate in the battle, and the remaining six branches sent nine people each, adding together, there were sixty-four people.
However, Dazhu Peak is short of manpower.
Although the rules are still the same, there will definitely be some gaps in the total number of people participating in the battle, or there may be an under-staffed situation.
But in order to pave the way for Wan Jianyi...
Also to make more preparations for the future...
In short, with a wave of Daoxuan's hand, the total number of people was increased from the originally planned sixty-four to one hundred and twenty-eight...
Tongtian Peak sent twenty people to fight.
The remaining six branches each have eighteen people.
It's really a big deal.
It is indeed a major change that Qingyun Sect has not seen in thousands of years.
However, the number of disciples in Dazhu Peak was already very few. Even counting Zhang Xiaofan, who was still wandering around the fourth level of Yuqing, there were only nine disciples in total.
Song Daren's six senior brothers, Tian Linger, Lu Yuan, and Zhang Xiaofan were all counted, but there were only nine.
But even the originally planned nine disciples could barely reach Dazhu Peak, so where could we find eighteen disciples to participate in the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition?
Fortunately, Daoxuan has not forgotten Dazhu Peak.
The rule is that there are eighteen people in one lineage.
Change it, it definitely can’t be changed.
Then we can only let everyone from Dazhufeng go into battle!
Anyway, the quota cannot be borrowed.
And this kind of rule can be regarded as saving Tian Buyi from trouble.
However, although this news is a worry for Tian Buyi, it is a happy event for other people!
In the past, the number of places in the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition was scarce. In order to compete for these places, and for the sake of their appearance, the disciples would compete with each other before participating in the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition.
Whoever wins will be stronger.
Whoever is stronger can participate in the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition.
But this is only a theoretical rule.
If the leader of a lineage insists on recommending a young disciple to go up and experience it, even if there is an old disciple who is stronger than the new disciple, he will still have to obey the leader's arrangement and give up this spot.
However, the leaders of several lines also understand that a bowl of water must be balanced, and they have already made arrangements in their hearts for who will play and who will not.
As for the disciples...
Blindly practicing hard is still very boring after all.
Therefore, when it comes to things like appearing holy in front of people, disciples from all walks of life rush up to try to get one of the four places.
But looking at it now...
No need to fight at all!
No need to grab it at all!
There are eighteen places in one lineage, which is enough to allocate!
There used to be four, but now there are eighteen, which is a full four and a half times the number of places. Even if there are still disciples who can't play, in private discussions, they will never be as head-to-head as before.
And due to the special circumstances of Dazhu Peak.
Although theoretically there will be 128 disciples participating in this Seven Meridians Competition, in reality, there are only 119 disciples.
Divide by even numbers and there is one person left.
Therefore, Daoxuan also established a system of drawing lots.
In the first round, the disciples who got the blank lottery will be excluded first, and then the elimination round will be held to eliminate half of the disciples.
After one round, there were fifty-nine people left.
Counting the disciples who drew blank lots, there were still sixty people left.
Therefore, in the second round, there is no need to use the lottery method. The second round of elimination can be carried out directly, and half of the disciples can be eliminated.
After the second round, there were still thirty people left.
Then you can go directly to the third round.
In the third round, blank draws will no longer be used.
After three rounds, there were still fifteen people left.
At this time, it is necessary to draw lots again.
Those who draw blank lots get a bye, and the remaining fourteen people can decide the seven winners.
Including the disciples who had a bye, there were eight people in total.
These eight people are the total number of people Qingyun Sect is planning to send down the mountain for training this time. Compared with the previous four people, the number has doubled.
This is also Qingyun Sect showing off its muscles to the world.
After these eight people are selected, three screening rounds will be conducted.
Among them, there will be four winners in the first game.
In the second game, two winners and two losers will be decided.
In the third game, the two winners compete for first and second place, and the two losers compete for third place.
The final ranking will also determine which person's orders should be followed first when encountering problems when going down the mountain for training.
After all, this is different from previous downhill experiences.
Only four people used to come down the mountain.
Just pick a team leader.
But now eight people came down the mountain.
Although one team leader is enough, Daoxuan is afraid that other geniuses will take action against Lu Yuan, causing Lu Yuan to have no intention of commanding the other seven people.
Facing the world-famous formation of the Blood Refining Hall...
Facing the 108 fire controllers in Fenxiang Valley...
Facing the twelve demons of the sea of blood under the command of Demon King Zong Mozi...
Wouldn't it be possible for the seven Qingyun disciples who were fighting on their own to be killed in a matter of minutes?
Yes, Lu Yuan is indeed very strong.
Several other geniuses were defeated by him.
But Daoxuan was afraid that these disciples would not be able to hold on until Lu Yuan came to support him after the battle was resolved, and they would be taken advantage of by the demon thieves!
Therefore, it is still necessary to screen out two deputy commanders.
But Daoxuan's plan caught him off guard, and it wasn't just Tian Buyi from Dazhu Peak who was caught off guard. Even Cangsong from Longshou Peak was a little confused, but he didn't go to Daoxuan to discuss it because of his face.
After all, increasing the total number of people in the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Association was originally what Cangsong Taoist meant.
And now that Daoxuan has increased like this, if Cangsong Daoist dares to go to Tongtian Peak to express his opinions again, he will fall into a contradictory problem: if he doesn’t listen to your opinions, the status quo will remain the same. If you have opinions, proceed according to your opinions. You still have opinions about change; then what should I do?
Furthermore, this question will evolve into: Is this Qingyun leader me or you? Who does the entire Qingyun Sect listen to now?
And if this problem evolves again, there will be no way to end it.
Being leaderless is a taboo for a sect.
Qingyun Sect will not make such stupid mistakes.
And Cangsong didn't have the time to take action.
Turning the table over is not good for anyone.
Therefore, even though he was caught off guard, Cangsong did not panic at all. Although he intuitively felt that there was something fishy about this Qimai martial arts competition, from a common sense analysis, Cangsong still dismissed his unreliable intuition. .
Isn't it just a seven-meridian martial arts competition?
Isn't it just a bit bigger in scale?
How should we compare or not? !
At most, it took a little longer.
The Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition, which used to be completed in two or three days, will probably take a week, or even ten days, this time.
However, there is no need for them to take action.
Who doesn’t know how to sit on it and watch a show?
Even if you carry a dog up there, you can complete this small task.
certainly.
Although Cangsong comforted himself in this way, he could guarantee with his own conscience that he really was not mocking Daoxuan for being such a dog in his heart.
After all, he sat in those seats.
He couldn't bring himself to be scolded.
Taoist Cangsong, as the first person in charge of punishment in Qingyun Sect, naturally also has the task of disseminating instructions for Daoxuan.
Therefore, Cangsong was the first to receive the news.
Therefore, Cangsong's next task is to send various disciples from Longshou Peak to the other peaks except Tongtian Peak to convey Daoxuan's new arrangements for the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition to the ears of each leader.
This is also to prevent the head of each channel from not knowing.
As a result, on the day of the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition, there were some strange scenes like bringing only four disciples. By that time, the total number of people was probably only fifty, not even half of the one hundred and twenty-eight.
Even if no one says it, it is still a joke after all.
As for face-hurting jokes like this, it is better to make as few jokes as possible. After all, it is not a secret that several leaders within Qingyun are not on good terms.
If Qingyun Gate is blown up again because of this little friction, it will really be more of a loss than a gain!
Therefore, just as Lu Yuan was reviewing this arrangement, the two flying swords had already cut through the sky, slicing straight towards Dazhu Peak from a distance, with a green and white stream of light, and finally landed outside the courtyard.
There are not many disciples in Dazhu Peak.
After all, there are eleven people in total.
Therefore, unlike other branches, which have a rather grand courtyard, they live in a large but not flashy courtyard and live a quite simple life.
But this was only the former Dazhu Peak.
Tian Buyi doesn't understand why girls should be rich.
But Lu Yuan understands!
Therefore, although the residence of Dazhufeng and others does not look good-looking from the outside, and is even a bit rough, from the inside of the courtyard, it can be said to be a different world.
There are many strange rocks and tall bamboos.
The creek is clear and meandering.
All animals are safe, not alarmed or making trouble.
Golden carp flocks, dragon carp forms a team.
The road leading to Tian Linger's residence is covered with countless lustrous cobblestones. If you look closely, you will find that you don't know how many pieces of fine white jade eggs are carved from them!
After crossing this white jade pebble road, what comes directly is a tree house built around dozens of towering trees. On the surface of the tree house, there are more or less gem fragments, all of which are... It was perfectly sealed with resin on the surface of the tree house, and the appearance is extremely smooth!
To be honest, in terms of taste, Lu Yuan really grasped Tian Linger's preferences, and in disguise, Suru's preferences, and in disguise, he grasped the preferences of women all over the world.
What do girls like?
Like shiny things.
A small and beautiful metal patch.
As big as a sparkling diamond.
certainly.
Lu Yuan also likes things like these.
But men still focus on practicality.
When this house was built in the past, it completely shocked the senior fellow apprentices such as Tian Linger, Tian Buyi, Suru, and Song Daren.
Dazhufeng didn’t have much money.
Although it is useless to ask for money to cultivate immortality...
But that's not the point.
Because Dazhu Peak doesn't have much money, the disciples in Dazhu Peak understand the value of these things better. Although they can't describe it in the best words, they still have a certain idea in their hearts.
But the more they have this concept, the more confused they become.
Isn’t it free to pay for things like white jade?
You use it to pave the way? ? ?
That’s not to say that we can’t pave the way.
The question is...are you using this thing to pave cobblestones? ? ?
Let’s not talk about whether the handwork fee is expensive or not, but let’s talk about the daily wear and tear issue. The smooth jade road and the cobblestone road made of jade are wearing out, and the difference is absolutely astronomical.
Not to mention those gems.
Those gems are broken after all.
Even if there are those who can practice magic weapons, they are still too young.
certainly.
Tian Buyi and others did not know that Lu Yuan deliberately smashed the wall in order to maintain the overall beauty and not look obtrusive.
Otherwise, it is estimated that Tian Buyi and others can pull it out on the spot...
But these things are only expensive in the eyes of outsiders!
In Lu Yuan's eyes, these things are no different from the soil on the ground!
He already masters the rules of the earth attribute.
Although ten years have passed, he still has not opened his Eye of Destiny. For the power of space, he has only returned to the normal level of use and has not gone any further; but for the rules of the earth attribute, after these years of use, he has Achieved proficiency!
It's very simple to transform something with soil.
After all, what is jade?
It’s ore!
It is within the rules of the earth attribute!
Are jade cobblestones luxurious?
For Lu Yuan, it was really ordinary.
He grabbed a handful of soil from the ground, and then used the rules of the earth attribute to shape it into some large and small clay eggs. Then he used the rules of mana to transform these large and small clay eggs into stones, and then into jade. This For jade and cobblestone roads, the raw materials are ready directly.
During the whole process, the only thing Lu Yuan gave was his own magic power.
Therefore, for Lu Yuan, this is really not a luxury.
The gem fragments in the book were also shaped in a similar way, and to Lu Yuan, they were also worthless.
As for Tian Linger's residence, if there is any place that Lu Yuan spent a lot of time to complete, then it must be the tree house.
Because Lu Yuan didn't quite understand the rules of wood attributes.
He understands the element of wood.
Also learn about the element of water.
But it is extremely difficult to use these two to build a house that is exquisite enough for Tian Linger, or in other words, a house that can repair itself.
After all, he couldn't use these two elements to make the trees cycle themselves without spreading anything into the space in between.
Fortunately, the five elements are complementary to each other.
After pondering for several days, Lu Yuan finally found a method that was not a method. He used the principle of the five elements to grow into a large piece of trees, and used the growth of these trees to independently form a building that can be continuously repaired and will last forever. Destroyed wooden house.
certainly.
You don't have to worry about bugs when you live there.
In these dozens of big trees, the birds that come here to build nests and raise their offspring are not just eating dry food. For some small insects and the like, they are basically eaten up before they even fly here.
The premise is that these bugs can resist the dragon's power.
After all, Lu Yuan also took this situation into consideration when he built this place and dropped a drop of his own blood on many trees in advance.
In this way, a powerful ecosystem is formed.
Because trees are nourished by the dragon's blood, they will grow longer and stronger, providing stronger protection; birds are affected by the dragon's power and gradually become stronger; people living in the house will also be affected by the environment. , physical fitness will increase imperceptibly.
However, there are limits.
But that's enough.
Therefore, Tian Linger, who lives here, has naturally improved his vision over time, and his resistance to some treasures has also increased significantly.
Lu Yuan completed the layout of all this three years ago.
certainly.
He didn't think about targeting Qi Hao.
I just feel that Qi Hao is really not suitable for Tian Linger.
There is at least a sixty-year age difference between the two!
Even if immortal cultivators generally live longer, this is too mismatched!
However, Lu Yuan maintains respect for love.
If Tian Linger could still fall in love with Qi Hao at first sight because of a bead, then Lu Yuan would have no choice but to respect Tian Linger's wishes.
And everything like what Lu Yuan arranged can't be seen from above!
What can you see above?
Only a wooden house and a cobblestone road can be seen.
At most, you can still see white bamboo forests.
After all, it is true that jade reflects light, but the surface of the tree house has been completely wrapped in resin, and the reflectivity has dropped significantly. The same is true for the jade road. Under strong sunlight, it will emit light just like ordinary white pebbles. It emits light that is not dazzling.
This is also the fundamental reason why Lu Yuan used cobblestones made of jade to pave the road.
after all...
If you use gems to make a road, you may not be able to see the road clearly when the sun comes out...
The road is made for people to walk on.
Instead of making it difficult for people to see the road clearly.
Therefore, when the green and white sword light reached the sky above Dazhu Peak, the sword wielder did not really notice anything was wrong with Tian Linger's residence. He just quickly pressed down the sword and dropped it to the ground.
Qi Hao and Lin Jingyu are different.
Qi Hao has a certain degree of self-awareness.
After all, Tian Buyi and Cansong are of the same generation.
In terms of seniority, he can be considered Qi Hao's mentor.
As for the relationship between the two veins...
A little more complicated.
Cangsong is Wan Jianyi's younger brother. He regards Suru as his eldest brother's woman and Tian Buyi as his eldest brother's younger brother, equal to himself.
As a result, it was not easy for Suru to marry Tian Buyi...
In other words, it would be better to let Cangsong not know what to say.
However, Qi Hao didn't know about these old events.
Qi Hao only knew that his master Cangsong hated the first Tian Buyi of Dazhu Peak, and the first Tian Buyi of Dazhu Peak also hated his master Cangsong.
That being the case...
Why are you still flying in the sky? ? ?
Is it because he is afraid that others will not be able to find an excuse to "point him out"? ? ?
Isn't it sweet to "respect teachers and respect the teachings"?
Why bother to argue with Master's opponent?
Moreover, are you still arguing on someone else's territory?
Qi Hao thought so.
However, it is indeed consistent on the outside.
But Lin Jingyu was young and energetic, so naturally he was different.
In the proverb "Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers", Lin Jingyu is undoubtedly the one who plays the role of "calf", and Tian Buyi naturally plays the role of "tiger".
And when facing a tiger...
A certain Tie Hanhan went straight up.
In addition to being led by Qi Hao, after Hotan Buyi said hello, Lin Jingyu rushed directly to Zhang Xiaofan and gave Zhang Xiaofan a long-awaited hug. Regardless of the occasion, he directly asked what was in his heart:
"After so many years, how does that fat...cough, that master of yours treat you?"
"Did I teach you spells properly?"
"Have you been given any magic weapon?"
"I was given a magic weapon by my master!"
"But that's not the point."
"Do you know that in terms of seniority, your little senior brother is a unique genius? Many of our senior brothers in Longshou Peak are convinced. He can easily pick up dozens of self-created spells, and there are also No one can understand it!”
"Have you met this senior brother? Who can you recommend to me?"
"I really want to see how handsome he is!"
Qi Hao held his forehead and hesitated to speak.
One thing to say.
Lin Jingyu is not a fool.
Therefore, although he asked straightforwardly, he was still concerned about the surrounding situation and deliberately lowered his voice when talking to Zhang Xiaofan.
But the problem is...
Everyone present is equipped with cultivation skills!
With clear ears and eyes, what whisper can’t be heard?
Therefore, after Lin Jingyu finished speaking in a low voice, he immediately felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room. When he subconsciously raised his head, he met Tian Buyi's sharp gaze.
Tian Buyi's temper is pretty good.
But also when.
He didn't even bother to take action against a junior.
Even though, this junior is Cangsong’s disciple.
But this junior dared to dance in front of him, which made him intolerable!
Cangsong taunted him and let it go.
After all, this is not the first time that the two have ridiculed each other.
But as a junior, what qualifications do you have to comment on his kindness to his disciples in front of him?
Zhang Xiaofan had just broken through the fourth level of Yuqing.
It’s less than a month after all the calculations have been made.
And this was made by Lao Qi using resources!
yes.
Tian Buyi did not teach Zhang Xiaofan much.
But looking at the entire Dazhu Peak, when has Tian Buyi ever taken charge of this aspect?
Husband and wife have a division of labor, do you understand?
His identity is that of a white-faced person who values gentleness.
And Suru's identity is a black face, and she is tough.
Moreover...
Since Lao Qi was born in Dazhu Peak, how many people got their spells from Lao Qi?
What does it have to do with him and Suru?
If you want to blame, you can only blame Zhang Xiaofan!
How could Tian Linger learn a few tricks?
Because Tian Linger’s cultivation has reached the standard!
Why does Zhang Xiaofan, until now, want a magic weapon but not a magic weapon and a magic weapon but not a spell?
Not enough cultivation!
Even if you go down the mountain in a month, what materials can you find?
For a month, even if I learn the simplest of all the spells created by Lao Qi to transmit sounds into the secret, I still have to ask if I can get started!
So it's none of his business!
Between the words, why would you suspect that he, a master, would be harsh on Zhang Xiaofan?
At this point, Tian Buyi could no longer control the anger in his heart. He slapped the table and stood up. With a wave of his sleeves, a powerful force of magic burst out instantly and pressed in the direction of Lin Jingyu...
