"Everyone, compared with previous Tianjiao Conferences, in order to ensure fairness from this time onwards, contestants are not allowed to take any pills during the competition."
On the high platform of the competition field, General Xiang Yunpeng solemnly announced this new regulation.
In order to ensure that the contestants take this matter seriously, Xiang Yunpeng once again solemnly warned: "If anyone takes pills during the competition, they will be eliminated immediately if found out! In serious cases, they will be permanently deprived of qualifications! Please be careful!"
As soon as Xiang Yunpeng finished speaking, there was a sound of booing in the competition arena, and everyone began to whisper.
However, the organizer of this Tianjiao Conference is, after all, the royal family of the Great Xia Kingdom. In addition, this rule is for everyone and not for any party in particular.
Although the players in the audience complained for a while, they finally had to accept this new rule.
After Xiang Yunpeng announced this new regulation, the happiest people were the isolated cultivators.
After all, no matter in terms of the grade, type and quantity of elixirs, casual cultivators are obviously far inferior to those disciples of the immortal cultivating sects with strong backgrounds.
"This rule is interesting, but it is only fair on the surface." Jiang Fan said with emotion.
As Jiang Fan said, although pills cannot be taken during a competition, no one can know before taking the field.
However, in a sense, this regulation relatively restricts some monks, especially those who possess a large amount of elixirs.
For example, Yaowang Valley, which is famous for its medicine refining and herbal medical skills, due to the emergence of this new regulation, the disciples of Yaowang Valley can no longer take pills unscrupulously during martial arts competitions.
In the previous Tianjiao Conference, when some casual cultivators finally managed to defeat the disciples of those cultivating sects, they ultimately missed the victory because the other party took some pills.
This also resulted in fewer and fewer casual cultivators entering the Genius List. Therefore, Nangong Ying decisively added this rule in this year's Genius Conference.
"Your Majesty the Queen, the rules of this Genius Conference have been announced. I wonder if the contestants can start competing on the stage?" General Xiang Yunpeng turned around and saluted Nangong Ying, asking for her instructions.
"Sister, can you wait a little longer? You must believe me. My brother is not only very talented in cultivation, but he is also an alchemist..."
In order to delay time, Nangong Yu said a lot of good things to his sister Nangong Ying.
In fact, Nangong Yu only knew that Jiang Fan's master might be a sixth-grade alchemy master, but he didn't know whether Jiang Fan could really make alchemy.
"Little prince, I understand your feelings, but I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this, right?" General Xiang Yunpeng looked at Nangong Yu with some embarrassment.
Before Nangong Yu could speak, Nangong Ying, who was standing next to him, said coldly: "General, let the contestants take the stage."
"sister!"
Nangong Yu became anxious and tried to persuade his sister one last time.
However, after Nangong Ying gave another order, General Xiang Yunpeng had no choice but to ignore the little prince's obstruction and immediately carried out the order.
"All contestants, please enter the competition ring in order!"
Following Xiang Yunpeng's announcement, the competition ground suddenly became noisy, and everyone was gearing up and eager to try.
"Oops! Brother Jiang Fan, why are you missing at this critical moment!" Nangong Yu felt very sorry to see Jiang Fan not showing up for a long time.
The next moment, the men who had just been sent to Zhenbao Pavilion to urge Jiang Fan rushed back to Nangong Yu, panting.
Before the subordinate could take a breath, Nangong Yu quickly stood up and asked: "How is it? Have you found him?"
After saluting Nangong Yu, the subordinate replied breathlessly: "Little prince, according to the reply from the master of the Zhenbao Pavilion, Su Xiao, the friend you asked about left the Zhenbao Pavilion and went to the palace an hour ago. "
"Ah?" Nangong Yu was a little surprised.
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Nangong Yu stepped forward and asked, somewhat unbelievably.
The subordinate trembled slightly and hurriedly replied: "Little prince, I asked Pavilion Master Su Xiao face to face! The situation is true! Pavilion Master Su Xiao said that he personally sent your friend away."
"Brother Jiang Fan, you really make me confused!" Nangong Yu was a little confused.
Nangong Ying, who was next to him, saw this and waved the subordinate to leave.
After receiving Her Majesty's order, the subordinate breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated.
Then, Nangong Ying began to comfort her softly: "Okay, Xiaoyu, don't worry anymore. Look at the competition venue, there are many players wearing masks."
"Sister, what do you mean?" Nangong Yu frowned, slightly confused.
Nangong Ying smiled slightly and said: "Perhaps your friend is inconvenient to show his true face and put on a mask on purpose. He may be on the scene now. This possibility is not impossible."
Nangong Yu suddenly understood and responded softly: "Sister, what you said makes sense."
Recalling the previous conversation with Jiang Fan, this young man seemed to be too sophisticated and might really be as cautious as his sister said.
"I hope my sister is right. Brother Jiang Fan has arrived at the competition site." Nangong Yu began to carefully look at the players on the field again.
"You! What can I say to you?" Nangong Ying saw that Nangong Yu's mood had improved, and she patted his forehead gently.
"Hehe!" Nangong Yu giggled.
At the same time, under the orderly arrangements of General Xiang Yunpeng, the contestants who came to compete began to enter the competition ring in order of martial arts.
The royal family seems to have specially arranged the order of the contestants on stage.
The immortal sects in Daxia Kingdom are mainly composed of six sects: Xuantian Sect, Wanxiang Sect, Baishou Sect, Yaowang Valley, Jianxin Valley and Burning Heaven Palace.
Xuantian Sect, located in the northeast of Daxia Kingdom, can be called the most majestic and large immortal cultivation sect in Daxia Kingdom. The sect is located in a majestic mountain range, with steep peaks towering and clouds and mist lingering among them, like a fairyland.
Wanxiangmen, located in the northeast of Daxia Kingdom, is proficient in formations, takes mastering spiritual formations as its training goal, and pays attention to the layout of formations.
The Hundred Beast Gate, located in the north of Daxia Kingdom, focuses on the integration of humans and animals and the art of transformation. Through transformation, practitioners possess the power and characteristics of beasts, and are good at transformation and animal spiritual arts.
Yaowang Valley, located in the northwest of Daxia Kingdom, is famous for its medicine refining and herbal medicine. The disciples of Yaowang Valley are all masters of medical skills and are proficient in refining medicine and the use of herbal medicines.
Sword Heart Valley is located in the west of Daxia Kingdom. It is a sect that focuses on swordsmanship. The disciples within the sect have mastered superb swordsmanship and are good at using various sword weapons. In addition to practicing swordsmanship, Kenshin Valley also focuses on practicing body skills to improve flexibility.
Burning Heaven Hall is located in the east of Daxia Kingdom. The practitioners in the sect mainly focus on the power of fire, master powerful fire spells, and pursue the refining and control of fire.
As the most majestic immortal cultivation sect in the Great Xia Kingdom, Xuantian Sect's disciples were naturally the first batch to board the martial arts arena.
"Xuan Tian Sect Mu Shan, Xuantian Sect Pan Lie, Xuantian Sect..."
After announcing their masters and names, the disciples of Xuantian Sect jumped onto the martial arts arena one after another.
Although Jiang Fan may not be familiar with several other sects except Jianxin Valley, he still remembers Xuantian Sect very well.
When he was in Ziyang City, if Su Yumei hadn't sent Xiao Jiu to support him in time, he might have died in the hands of Xuantian Sect disciples.
At this moment, Jiang Fan's worry was obviously justified, because following the direction of the Xuantian Sect disciples' stage, he had already seen his old acquaintance.
The Xuantian Sect disciple who escaped from the Qin Mansion - Chu Yan.
"He is indeed here too!" Jiang Fan's heart trembled. Jiang Fan knew very well about Chu Yan's strength.
"Fortunately, I made some preparations before coming, otherwise I would be in trouble if I were recognized." Jiang Fan carefully observed Chu Yan's every move.
Because he was over twenty years old, Chu Yan could not participate in the Tianjiao Conference, but as the most proud disciple of the Fourth Elder, he naturally followed his master Yao Tianlang this time.
The middle-aged man next to Chu Yan is Yao Tianlang, the fourth elder of Xuantian Sect, who is also Chu Yan's master.
As the fourth elder of the Xuantian Sect and one of the confidants of the head of the Xuantian Sect, Yao Tianlang has a bad temper and acts impulsively and recklessly, but he is very partial to his disciples.
It is said that his cultivation has reached the middle stage of the spiritual realm.
"Elder Yao, your disciple Pan Lie has already reached the late stage of Lingquan realm at a young age, which is really good." An old man over fifty years old said.
Although this old man looks amiable on the outside, he is actually very sinister and cunning.
The old man's true identity is Ge Tianqi, the great elder of Xuantian Sect. This person has won the trust of the head of the Xuantian Sect, and his cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of the Spirit Realm.
"Elder Ge, what you said, if I'm not wrong, your proud disciple Mu Shan's cultivation seems to have reached more than the Lingquan realm." Yao Tianlang speculated.
"Haha! As expected of the fourth elder of Xuantian Sect, I can't hide anything from you!" Ge Tianqi said with a smile, stroking his beard.
"Master, could it be that Junior Brother Mushan has reached the level of spiritual elixir realm?" Chu Yan, who was on the side, heard the conversation between the two and looked at his master Yao Tianlang in disbelief.
"Yes, if I guessed correctly, he should have used some magic to control his cultivation to the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Spring Realm." Yao Tianlang nodded slightly in response.
Afterwards, Yao Tianlang sighed: "If the two brothers Liu Qing and Liu Jiang were still here, with the power of the spiritual formation, they would be able to join this year's list of geniuses, but it's a pity..."
Yao Tianlang clenched his fists, seemingly very angry at the death of his two beloved disciples.
"Master, it's all useless to me! If I hadn't fought to the death with the head of the Qin family, I would have been able to save the junior brothers from that guy." Chu Yan on the side began to pretend to be sad.
"Elder Yao, I have also heard about the deaths of your two beloved disciples. But I didn't expect that there are still young monks in Daxia who can fight to the death with your three beloved disciples without falling behind."
Ge Tianqi frowned, as if he couldn't believe it. When they first learned of the death of the two Liu brothers, the entire Xuantian Sect could hardly believe it.
First, they couldn't believe that someone dared to go against Xuantian Sect. After all, only Xuantian Sect disciples bullied others. Secondly, they had never heard of such a powerful young monk in Daxia.
As for the secrets about Jiang Fan, Chu Yan did not tell them despite Yao Tianlang's repeated instructions. Chu Yan knew in his heart that his master was interested in these secrets in Jiang Fan.
Yao Tianlang sighed and blamed himself: "It's my fault that I was blinded by the Feng family's money. If I meet this guy who killed my beloved disciple, I will make his life worse than death! "
"You! Don't blame yourself too much. Feng Tianhu from Ziyang City originally took out half of Ziyang City's money. I'm afraid I would also be moved." Ge Tianqi comforted with a smile.
"Hey..." Yao Tianlang sighed and stopped talking.
It can only be said that the bargaining chips provided by Feng Tianhu, the patriarch of the Feng family, were indeed too generous.
Feng Tianhu promised Yao Tianlang that as long as he helped him destroy the Qin family, he was willing to give Yao Tianlang half of the income from the entire Ziyang City operation.
In Yao Tianlang's view, this could not be easier. In order to show his sincerity, he even gave Xuantian Sect's Xuan-level high-level magic Tiger Roar Technique to Feng Tianhu's son Feng Tianba in advance.
Chu Yan on the side saw that his master had stopped talking and did not dare to continue discussing the matter, so he began to focus on his junior brother Pan Lie.
Pan Lie, like Chu Yan and the late Liu brothers, was a proud disciple of Yao Tianlang.
Pan Lie is only nineteen years old this year, so he can participate in the Genius Conference. This man is tall and powerful, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of Lingquan Realm.
As for the disciple Mushan whom Yao Tianlang admired previously, he was the proud disciple of the Great Elder Ge Tianqi.
This person has an arrogant and domineering temperament and is quite scheming. With his outstanding cultivation talent and rare true spiritual body, he often looks down on his fellow disciples. He is just twenty years old this year, and he happens to be qualified to participate in the Tianjiao Conference.
It is said that his cultivation has reached the early stage of the spiritual elixir realm. And just as Yao Tianlang guessed, Mushan had cultivated a spell that could hide his cultivation level and controlled his initial cultivation level at the Spiritual Pill Realm to the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Spring Realm.
Not long after, all the dozen disciples from Xuantian Sect who came this time had boarded the competition ring.
The next contestants to take the stage are the disciples from the Wanxiang Sect, the Hundred Beasts Sect, the Medicine King Valley, the Burning Heaven Palace and the Jianxin Valley.
"It's a pity! Junior Sister Qin Xue didn't come, otherwise she would have shown off her power in front of her! Ever since Junior Sister Qin Xue returned home, she seemed to be a different person, and she went into seclusion after returning to Jianxin Valley Get up."
A young man holding a sword on the field shook his head helplessly.
"Brother, you are the only one missing from Jianxin Valley!" A young junior sister shouted in the competition arena.
"Brother, come here right now!" After saying this, the young man jumped up and quickly climbed onto the competition ring under the admiring eyes of his fellow juniors.
This young man is the leader of the younger generation in Jianxin Valley, Duan Qingfeng.
As the name suggests, Duan Qingfeng is like a jade tree facing the wind, graceful and full of energy. Duan Qingfeng seems to have a ray of breeze with him, and he has fascinated many junior sisters from Jianxin Valley. But Duan Qingfeng only misses Qin Xue and has been pursuing Qin Xue all these years.
Duan Qingfeng and Qin Xue originally agreed to come together for this Genius Conference, but Qin Xue refused Duan Qingfeng on the grounds of practicing in seclusion.
As for the reason for rejecting him, no matter how much Duan Qingfeng asked, Qin Xue never told him. This made him very disappointed and felt that the relationship between the two had weakened.
Before Jiang Fan appeared, Qin Xue actually had a good impression of Duan Qingfeng, at least she didn't hate him. After all, at Duan Qingfeng's age, he has already reached the Perfect Lingquan Realm, and even Qin Xue admires him a little.
After all the disciples of the six sects boarded the competition ring, the casual cultivators in the audience began to take the stage one after another.
After a while, the competition arena, which was more than a hundred feet wide, was already filled with monks who came to participate in the competition.
"If it weren't for me, maybe with Qin Xue's cultivation level, she would have come to participate in this Tianjiao Conference..." Jiang Fan sighed secretly in his heart.
Then Jiang Fan jumped up and boarded the competition ring.
"Rogue cultivator, Ji Fan!"
