"Could this Cheng Yi be the young swordsman who has become famous recently and has a sword heart?"
"As a new disciple, it is said that during the past six months, he has competed a lot with the veteran disciples. The strength evaluation given by the external list tablets has reached an astonishing fourth place among the external disciples!"
"Yes, yes. I heard that his leader is Senior Brother Yuan Hong, who currently lives at Luyang Peak."
"Senior Brother Yuan Hong? That's the second-ranked person on the foreign list."
"In that case, Luyang Peak has two disciples among the top five, but according to this ranking, how can it be the second highest peak in the outer sect, Luyang Peak, shouldn't it be Qingzhu Peak?"
"I'm afraid some of you don't know something..."
"Stop talking, stop talking. Cheng Yi's opponent is Shangguan Fengran, but he is ranked third on the foreign list, one place higher than Cheng Yi."
This is a semi-vaulted competition ground with a sunken center, where the disciples compete.
Shangguan Fengran had a smile on his face and a graceful demeanor. He was dressed in a Taoist palace robe and wore an eye-catching Zheng C plaque around his waist.
Even as a veteran outer sect disciple, if placed in the outer sect, it would be considered superior. On the other hand, Cheng Yi's waist plate is a Shang C plate, but this is not enough for an entry into the Taoist palace. For the newly promoted disciples, this is already very shocking.
You know, the monthly salary of a C-card is 30,000 spiritual stones, plus a first-grade spiritual energy powder, which is very expensive.
Even though the Spiritual Energy Powder alone is a first-grade product, it is still a medicinal powder, but if it is sold outside, it would be impossible to get fifty or sixty thousand Spiritual Stones.
He looked at the young sword cultivator in front of him who had recently become famous, his eyes moved slightly, and he smiled: "Junior brother Cheng is so talented in swordsmanship, but it was a pity that he was not chosen as the elder's disciple by the sword elder at the beginning. ."
Faced with the connotation in his words, how could Cheng Yi, who had been in the world for a long time before entering Lingtian Dao Palace, not know that Shangguan Fengran in front of him was saying that no matter how strong his sword intention was, High, they are all invisible to the sword elder. This is a disgrace to himself.
But compared to Shangguan Fengran who had more verbal pressure, Cheng Yi seemed to turn a deaf ear and said lightly: "If I defeat you, I can challenge him."
"Oh? Him?"
The first thing that came to Shangguan Fengran's mind was Yuan Hong, who was one step higher than him. However, this idea was quickly dismissed, because Yuan Hong was his leader. The existence of half a master, that is not the second Yuan Hong, could it be that...
"You kid, do you want to challenge Senior Sister Ning?"
Shangguan Fengran said in astonishment. It's not surprising that he was so surprised. It was just because Ning Ruoxue, the number one outer disciple, was really not a joke. The strength of the Half-step Lingtai had already made many The outer sect disciples and even some elder disciples of the inner sect were all intimidated.
Seeing that the young sword cultivator refused to answer and remained silent, he spat and said, "The new disciples are really arrogant now."
Also at this time, there was a man wielding a sword in mid-air. The man was majestic, with his hands on his back. He was wearing a valuable magic weapon robe. His whole temperament was obviously different from ordinary people.
This man's name is Han Yan. He is the person in charge of this competition among the outer disciples. He is considered the person in control of the situation. He is an inner disciple who has stayed in the Dao Palace for a long time.
He took out a bunch of golden bells from nowhere, shook them and said with a smile: "I announce that the outer disciple competition has officially begun..."
Accompanied by these words that were neither salty nor bland, there was a clanging sound, and the golden bell made a crisp sound as Kong Yan shook it.
Golden sound patterns gradually spread and surrounded the entire competition venue.
What is contained in this is the power of the laws of heaven and earth. This sword-wielding man is a great monk in the Lingtai realm.
Among the Dao Palace disciples watching this competition, there were obviously some new disciples who did not know Kong Yan’s name, nor had they seen his name on the ranking list until now. Seeing that the person in charge of this competition among outer disciples revealed this method, they all exclaimed in amazement.
Then some veteran disciples made some statements and explanations.
"Senior Brother Hanyan, he has been in this palace for ten years, and he has long been out of the inner ranking list. He is listed on the most powerful and influential bounty list in the Lingtian Dao Palace!"
The bounty list does not distinguish between outer sects, inner sects and elder disciples. It covers the entire Lingtian Dao Palace. All disciples can be on the list. However, the requirements for being on the list do not depend on the level of strength, only on the monks. The contribution points gained from completing bounty missions are used to determine the ranking on the list based solely on merit.
In the field, after Han Yan announced that the outer sect disciple competition had officially begun, Shangguan Fengran also adopted a strategy to take the initiative. His figure rioted, and he tapped his feet lightly. Following the fluctuation of the spiritual energy of the Great Perfection of the Bigu Realm, The ground cracked instantly.
The figure, invisible to the naked eye, turned into a rainbow and flew towards Cheng Yi!
Bang!
A punch containing rich spiritual energy hit Cheng Yi's forehead and heart.
The wind was like countless knives rubbing against each other, scratching Cheng Yi's face with some pain. Just when everyone thought that Cheng Yi, who was known as a young swordsman, would draw his sword to fight the enemy.
But who would have thought that Cheng Yi's eyes were like a torch, and his whole body was filled with spiritual energy. He took a big step forward and raised a fist. His strength in the late Bigu realm was clearly visible, and he collided with Shangguan Fengran's fist.
The two fists collided, making a popping sound, and a wave of air rolled outwards. The bricks and tiles on the ground were cracked, turning into gravel and splashing outwards.
Hitting the soundprint barrier emitted by the golden bell, two figures flew out in a burst of dust.
Cheng Yi was on the ground and kept retreating. Every time he stepped on the ground, he left deep footprints for more than ten steps. Then he reluctantly stopped his body and also used the momentum to Remove.
Looking at the Shangguan Fengran on the opposite side, after taking six steps back, he snorted fiercely, forcibly stopped his body with his strong spiritual energy, and then immediately stepped forward again without giving the sword cultivator in front of him any reaction. The figure flickered.
Penetrating the dust, approaching Cheng Yi, as he approached, he saw Shangguan Fengran, who was dressed in majestic clothes. He didn't know when there was a knife in his hand. The knife was a straight knife, about half a person tall, with a sharp tip. The sharpness collided with the air and trembled. The blade had extremely mysterious patterns. In Shangguan Fengran's hand, the powerful sword energy directly pressed against the young swordsman!
Before the person arrives, the energy arrives first.
Air knife!
This is Shangguan Fengran's natural talent, and his immortal talent is...
"One breath turns into a sword!"
The man roared suddenly, holding a knife in one hand, wrapped with countless spiritual energy, and slashed at the young swordsman in front of him.
This sword, even with the barrier of the Lingtai Realm monks, could not block the dazzling sword light and cold air, so that the Dao Palace monks who were watching the battle, some who were close and of low level, were all covered by the cold air. The soles of the feet reach straight to the sky.
"As expected of Shangguan Fengran, I have long heard that there is a disciple with the title of 'Little Sword Immortal' in the outer sect. I must be talking about him."
"This sword has at least ten years of experience!"
"I think even the inner disciples, I'm afraid most of them will have to pay a lot of price or means if they want to take this trick..."
"..."
In addition to the outer disciples, in fact some inner disciples or disciples under the elders will come to observe. After all, observing the way of others is undoubtedly one's own way. Adding bricks and tiles is like carving a piece of flawless jade. You need to think over and over again before you can achieve it. Water heart jade.
At this point, the young swordsman finally made a move... The two people punched each other before, but they were actually testing each other's weaknesses, and the next one was the real way to suppress the situation.
I saw the young swordsman, wielding a sword in one hand and a flying sword of excellent quality, floating beside him...
A bit of piercing sword intent flashed through his eyes, and he slowly held the hilt of the flying sword with his left hand. The moment he touched it, the flying sword shivered, and a sword energy flowed through Cheng Yi's body like countless threads. .
White marks were left in the void, which was a sign that the sword's power was extremely strong and would not dissipate for a long time.
The young sword cultivator looked at the oppressive sword energy, slowly waved the flying sword in his hand, and whispered softly: "Sword slash!"
At that moment, everyone saw that a bright sword heart was rising in the young sword cultivator's body, and a sword intent that seemed to come from heaven poured down on his body.
A sword intent with sword light, and a flying sword, swung directly to meet the sword.
The sword energy and the sword energy, which were like a thunderous giant, collided first. The two "intentions" consumed each other, the void trembled, and countless inverted air waves scattered in all directions.
clang!
After "meaning", there was a confrontation between swords and knives. Hissing sounds continued to resound. In a burst of sword lights and shadows, the winner was known.
Tick tock.
Drops of blood dripped from Shangguan Fengran's hands, and there was even a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. Although it had been wiped off a few times, it was still vaguely visible.
"I accept, Senior Brother Shangguan."
A voice that was neither arrogant nor impetuous resounded from Cheng Yi's mouth. Everyone looked at the young sword cultivator. He was holding a flying sword with prosperous sword intent in one hand. He was breathing heavily. He looked a little embarrassed and had a few hairs. It was very messy, but he himself was not injured at all.
Although this competition has nothing to do with life or death, in this competition, who is stronger or weaker can be known at a glance.
When Shangguan Fengran saw that he had lost, he looked willing to do so. Then he cupped his knife into his fist and said, "I'm not as good as Junior Brother Cheng..."
But who would have expected that Cheng Yi smiled, shook his head and said: "Junior brother did take advantage of the competition, but if it is a life and death battle, I am afraid that the murderous knife of brother Shangguan is the real one." His methods are just dusty compared to those of the same sect."
When Shangguan Fengran heard this, his face was startled. He finally showed a faint smile to the young man in front of him who was several years younger than him, and a feeling of admiration rose up in his heart.
At this point, this young sword cultivator, outer disciple Cheng Yi, had a broad mind and gained a reputation through this battle.
Just when Shangguan Fengran left the stage, the person in charge in the air, Han Yan, also said to Cheng Yi: "Junior brother Cheng, you defeated Shangguan Fengran in this competition, and your ranking will also come from this." To the third place on the foreign list.”
"Right now, you have two choices. First, let others challenge you. Second, you can choose your opponent and have a competition..."
It was also at this time that all the Dao Palace disciples outside the field held their breath. They looked at the young sword cultivator in the field with expectant faces.
What choice he would make, it should be the latter. After all, he had already expressed his intention to continue the discussion before.
Under the gaze of everyone, Cheng Yi, a young swordsman cultivator, looked around as if he was looking for someone. Then, as if he did not see the person in his mind, a little doubt appeared on his face.
After a long time, he slowly said: "I want to have a swordsmanship competition with... Li Wudi from Qingzhu Peak."
