"The weather is nice today."
Today is also the first day of the arena competition without restrictions, and basically all the previous monks are here.
Hong'an Street is bustling with activity.
Because everyone knows that there are no restrictions on magic weapons on this day, and you can even mix and match them freely, so the enthusiasm is unprecedentedly high.
The previous restricted items have given them a full understanding of the wonderful uses of these items, but what effect can they have if there are two items?
Just thinking about it makes people look forward to it.
"Qiu Qian, are you going to compete on stage today?"
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
She had been practicing on the way here and there, and she had been practicing in the past few days, so she planned to take advantage of these few days to upgrade her body to the first and third stages.
Li Shiqian smiled and said: "Then you have to be careful, the second stage is not as easy as the fourth stage."
The second arena is basically close to the foundation building stage. Whether it is cultivation, fighting skills or close combat, there are certain strength methods in all aspects. It is easy to lose if you are not careful.
She would compete in the ring almost every day when she was free, but she had never successfully defended the ring.
"Sister Qiu Qian can definitely win." Yun Yi was very confident in Xu Qiu Qian.
"That's not necessarily true. Don't underestimate the monks in the second arena."
Xu Qiu smiled slightly: "In this case, I am looking forward to it even more."
It allows her to refine her body and improve her level, so why not do it.
She previously thought that the competition in the fourth arena was too childish, and hoped that the second arena could surprise her.
As for guarding, to be honest, she didn't care.
She does it to improve herself.
However, a successful defense will help the grocery store and her plans for the last day, so she will try her best to succeed.
So, when everyone saw Xu Qiuqian standing on the second stage, they were all surprised.
Some time ago, it was surprising to see Yun Yi, who was at the tenth level of Qi Refining in the No. 3 Arena, suddenly drop to the fourth level and run to the No. 4 Arena. Everyone just thought that he had made a mistake in his cultivation, so his cultivation level suddenly dropped. Didn't you see that his cultivation level returned to the sixth level in a short period of time?
But Xu Qiuqian was originally only at the fourth level, so why did his cultivation level rise from the fourth level to the twelfth level after not seeing him for more than twenty days? !
"Did she suppress her cultivation before?"
"Then this is too bullying!"
Disciples from several big families heard the discussion and explained: "I heard from the clan leader that she was indeed only at the fourth level of Qi Refining at that time."
"Then why is she on the twelfth floor now?"
"People always have good opportunities, not to mention the things she sells on the second floor can improve their cultivation level in a short period of time."
This is true.
Everyone was envious.
Tell me, it only took more than twenty days to go from the fourth level of Qi Refining to the twelfth level of Qi Refining!
What a concept of twenty days!
Some people may not be able to advance to two or three levels even in twenty years!
People are more infuriating than people.
At this time Xu Qiuqian had already taken the stage.
Looking at the monk competing with her, everyone shook their heads.
"I think she will lose the first challenge."
The defender's name is Duan Yuang. He is a disciple of the sect who passed here from another city. He is at the peak of Qi refining. He successfully defended the challenge yesterday and his strength is obvious to all.
Since Duan Yuang successfully defended the ring six days ago, he has successfully defended the ring for six consecutive days.
If it was Xu Qiuqian who stole the show in the first few days of the arena competition, then it was Duan Yuang who stole the show these days.
Duan Yuang also heard about Xu Qiuqian.
He smiled lightly at Xu Qiu.
"I heard that this restricted fighting competition was proposed by Store Manager Xu. It's very interesting."
Xu Qiu accepted Duan Yuang's praise with a smile.
"What a coincidence, I think so too."
Hearing this, Duan Yuang felt that Xu Qiuqian was quite interesting.
He asked curiously: "Weren't you on the fourth stage before? Why are you suddenly on the twelfth floor? Is it really like those people said, what opportunities do you have?"
Xu Qiuqian tilted her head and wondered: "Can't I practice it myself?"
"Twenty days to go from the fourth level of Qi Refining to the twelfth level of Qi Refining?" Am I crazy or are you crazy!
Apparently, no one believed it.
It was impossible for Xu Qiuqian to tell him the truth, so she smiled and said: "Anyway, the truth is that I have reached the twelfth level of Qi refining."
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Duan Yuang wisely did not ask any more questions and just said: "Even if you are at the twelfth level of Qi refining, you were very powerful in the fourth arena before, but I'm sorry, but as long as I am here in the second arena, you will never Possibly a defender."
Very confident.
It's not blind confidence, but confidence in one's own strength.
Xu Qiuqian didn't hate it.
But who wouldn’t say something harsh?
"Really? Then let me tell you, I not only want to be a defender, but I also want to be successful."
After he finished speaking, not only Duan Yuang, but also the monks under the ring shook their heads.
"Does she really think that the competition in Arena No. 2 is as simple as Arena No. 4?"
"That's right! Fellow Daoist Duan, hurry up and give her some color!"
There are also those who support Xu Qiuqian.
"Come on, Manager Xu! We believe you can successfully defend the ring. Why is he, a guy from outside the city, so arrogant!"
"That's right, give him some color and let him understand that our monks in Youling City are not so easy to bully!"
For a moment, the atmosphere was heated by the harsh words of the two people.
"Duan Yuang, the defender of the second arena, versus Xu Qiuqian, the challenger, the competition begins!"
Xu Qiuqian was fully focused.
She talks lightly, but when it comes to actual competition, she never looks down on anyone.
As for Duan Yuang, it was much easier.
Perhaps it was the relaxed defense of the past few days that made him feel that the monks in this remote city were indeed not very good, and Xu Qiuqian, who had just been promoted to the twelfth level of Qi Refining, was probably still in the adaptation period, and he must be in a hurry when fighting.
He admitted that the things sold in Xu Qiuqian's store were pretty good, including the idea of the spirit-guiding array. Some of the rare treasures on the second floor were so rare that even he was amazed that Xu Qiuqian had them.
But, it’s just that the stuff is good.
He even had the time to joke.
"In the past few days, I have been competing with a fellow Taoist named Li Shiqian. I heard that she is a clerk in a grocery store."
"right."
Duan Yuang clicked his tongue and then shook his head.
"What's wrong?" Xu Qiuqian was confused.
"I don't know why Store Manager Xu wants her to be the store manager of a grocery store. It's not my fault. Her qualifications and cultivation are average, and her strength is even lower than average. Compared to another clerk, she is far behind."
Another clerk was talking about Yunyi.
The monks under the ring, as well as Li Shiqian and Yun Yi who took some time out of their busy schedule to cheer Xu Qiuqian, could hear clearly.
The monks in the audience nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, I don't think that Li Shiqian is qualified to be a clerk in Manager Xu's store. Manager Xu and another clerk are both very powerful. They have successfully defended several times and are very powerful. Only this person, The strength is really average.”
"That's right. I don't know why store manager Xu wants her to be a clerk in the store. She is not worthy!"
"Isn't that right? I heard that she became a shop assistant because she cooks delicious food. Oh, by the way, you should have heard of Mrs. Li from Taolingwan."
"It turns out it's her! Although she cooks delicious food, but other things..."
"I heard that Store Manager Xu's staff can use the Spirit Guiding Array alone for free. Store Manager Xu, look at me, I'm much more powerful than Madam Li!"
After hearing this, Yun Yi looked at Li Shiqian and found that the latter's expression was not right.
