Wu Changyuan nodded silently, and after a moment, asked again: "Little friend, your formation level is very high. I remember that there is a very powerful formation protection outside the Sword Tomb. Most people cannot enter. I don't know how you got in. .”
Cheng Ling smiled and said: "Senior, the outer formation is indeed very strong. We also spent a lot of money to enter. As for the formation below, it is only the seventh grade."
He did not take his words to death. The seventh-grade Formation Dao Grandmaster was considered to be an extremely high grade in the Canglan Continent, so he always wanted to leave some trump cards for himself.
Wu Changyuan's face was moved and he said: "Yes, you are young. Not only have your cultivation reached the peak of the late integration stage, but you can even reach the seventh level of formation. It is indeed not easy. Are you willing to become a disciple of my Shura Sword Sect?"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly, unable to avoid this problem after all. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Senior, you should know that I am the master of the Wuxiang Sword Sect and a disciple of the Famous Sword Academy. I have two roles, and then I become the Shura Sword Sect. Sect disciple, I’m afraid it’s inappropriate!”
"Besides, in twenty days, I will participate in the competition of the six colleges. Joining the Shura Sword Sect at this time is afraid of causing unnecessary suspicion."
Wu Changyuan was silent. The rules of Shura Sword Sect never allowed disciples to have other jobs outside the home. It can be said that once Cheng Ling becomes a disciple of Shura Sword Sect, all other roles of Cheng Ling will be cancelled, which is a bit embarrassing.
Moreover, he had heard a little bit about the competition between the six major academies. Presumably the deans of the Famous Sword Academy would not agree to leave the academy at this time. In his heart, he felt that Cheng Ling naturally cared more about the disciples of the Famous Sword Academy.
As everyone knows, if Cheng Ling is given the choice, he will give up the Famous Sword Academy without hesitation and retain his position in the Wuxiang Sword Sect, not for the sake of the title of sect leader, but for Xuan Lingzi and Liu Qingyan!
After thinking for a long time, Wu Changyuan finally said helplessly: "Forget it, little friend Cheng Ling, since I can't leave the academy for the time being, I can only give up on becoming a disciple of Shura Sword Sect. Don't worry, the door of our Shura Sword Sect will always be open for you. Thank you very much. Tell the news about the Sword Tomb, and there will be a report later!"
"Thank you for your understanding, senior!"
"That's all, in that case, we won't bother you anymore and just say goodbye!"
After saying that, he took Ye Ziqian and left.
After they left, Jian Yinghao asked: "Brother Cheng, do you think they will go to the Jian Tomb?"
Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Yes, but so what. I have told Mr. Yuan Ling a long time ago that even if they enter the sword tomb and make a fuss, the entrance to the sword pavilion cannot be easily opened."
Jian Yinghao laughed, gave him a thumbs up, and said, "How about the challenge in the underground arena?"
"Brother Jian, do you want to give it a try?"
"Yes, in the past six months, the lack of Heavenly Dao has been made up for, and the cultivation level has been raised to the peak of the middle stage of integration. I want to try to see if I can break through again in battle."
Cheng Ling thought for a while and then said: "This is also a way. You, Youlan, Yiyi and others can try it. Qingyan, what are your plans?"
After several months of training, Liu Qingyan, Jian Yinghao, Gu Youlan, and Bai Yiyi among the people have all improved their cultivation to the peak of the middle stage of integration. Only Xi Yan and Zhang Hu need to concentrate on refining elixirs and refining weapons, but their improvement is not much, and they are still in the early stages of integration.
Liu Qingyan glanced at him and said, "There's nothing wrong with the three of us going to fight in the ring, but Yiyi
Why, it's been so long, and you're still leaving her like this, and you're not afraid of the little girl feeling resentful. "
Cheng Ling scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. Bai Yiyizi was cheerful and lively, taking every break throughout the day. Unlike Gu Youlan and others, she didn't care if there was any intimate behavior as long as Cheng Ling was around.
After thinking for a while, he said: "It doesn't matter, this girl is innocent, let her be! After the Alchemy King Valley, we will return to the Wuxiang Sword Sect and solve these things together."
Liu Qingyan glared and said, "You said this yourself, don't regret it."
As the elder and the oldest among the four girls, she played the role of the eldest lady and sometimes had to worry about these things for Cheng Ling. But as a woman, I always don’t like women who have too many concerns about their husbands. If it can be later, then later.
Cheng Ling smiled, knowing what she was thinking. He glanced at Jian Yinghao again and said, "Brother Jian, don't worry, I will take Yiyi's matter to heart."
Jian Yinghao was immediately relieved, called Liu Qingyan, and prepared to go to the underground arena with Gu Youlan and Bai Yiyi to challenge.
Cheng Ling sat back on the chair. There were less than twenty days left before the competition in the six major academies. It was already difficult to improve his cultivation level in such a short period of time. Then he should reflect on his experience of the challenge during this period, the relationship between the Nine Ultimate Sword and the artistic conception. The fusion of power can be improved again, and the remaining time can be used to attack the realm of the eighth-level alchemist!
Time passed slowly, and Cheng Ling fell into silence again. However, the underground arena in Yujing City was extremely noisy. After Cheng Ling, four more powerful defenders appeared.
They all came from the Famous Sword Academy, and with their cultivation at the peak of the middle stage of integration, they were advancing rapidly, and soon won dozens of consecutive victories. Outstanding disciples from various major forces went to challenge him one after another, but they were all defeated by them.
For a time, the reputation of the Famous Sword Academy in Yujing City was greatly enhanced, which created momentum for the upcoming competition between the six major academies.
The three masters of the academy were greatly relieved when they heard the news. The chief master praised the performance of the Kendo Academy. Sun Yuanliang was left with a dark face. But helplessly, although Liu Qingyan was admitted as a disciple of the famous Sword Academy, he did not join the Sword Academy. Instead, he was even closer to the Sword Academy.
More than ten days have passed, and all four of them have won a hundred consecutive victories. The entire Fan Mansion was filled with joy, and the disciples of the Famous Sword Academy suddenly felt that their waists were much straighter. For more than a hundred years, the academy has been at the bottom of the heap. You can still run rampant in the south for a while, but once you leave the southern area, your words are not loud enough.
Now, Jian Yinghao and others have established a great reputation on behalf of the academy, and they can finally feel proud and confident in the competition between the queens.
The chief hospital master felt relieved and stopped caring about them. That night, there was a night of partying and drinking in Fan's house, and everyone's face was filled with a satisfied smile. Only Sun Yuanliang looked at Cheng Ling and others in the field from a distance, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and the time for the competition officially arrived.
Early in the morning, the three masters of the courtyard asked their disciples to wait in the courtyard, and everyone went to the competition venue together.
After everyone arrived, the three courtyard masters also came to the courtyard. The head of the hospital swept away his consciousness and nodded with satisfaction. Everyone has made great progress in the June strategy formulated by Cheng Ling.
In terms of cultivation, Jian Yinghao, Liu Qingyan, Gu Youlan, and Bai Yiyi have reached the advanced stage of integration. Coupled with Xie Feng, the competition between swordsmanship, magic, and martial arts is even more certain.
As for the four alchemy weapon formations, Xi Yan finally reached the level of a seventh-level peak alchemist after practicing with a large amount of herbal medicine. Zhang Hu has reached the sixth level of weapon refining master, and coupled with Cheng Ling's terrifying formation level, he can score at least two points.
What's left is the head battle and the group battle. Thinking of this, the chief head blushes for a rare time. Cheng Ling had a guaranteed victory in the team battle, with a 100% certainty, and a very high chance of scoring. On the contrary, he was a bit of a drag on the overall combat effectiveness.
No, the disciples of the younger generation are so ambitious, so I must try my best and never let them look down upon me. At this thought, he suddenly became proud and said loudly: "Okay! Everyone has worked hard. I believe that this time, we will definitely help the academy achieve better results, go out!"
"yes!"
Everyone agreed, and the head of the courtyard waved his hand and walked out of the mansion first.
Cheng Ling snickered secretly, never expecting that the chief hospital master also had this side. In the past, he was always a dragon who could not see the end, but now he even led the team to encourage him personally. It seems that there is indeed a lot of pressure during this period.
A large group of people followed the masters of the three major courtyards and headed towards the destination of the competition. To be honest, except for the three courtyard masters, no one knew the location of the competition. After walking for half an hour, everyone suddenly understood.
In front of him is the central square of Yujing City, and only here can many monks be accommodated.
Great changes have also taken place in the square. Led by the landowner Tianji Academy, a huge competition venue was temporarily built around the square.
The venue is divided into different categories, including the alchemy weapon array competition area and the arena competition area. There are also stepped stands around to facilitate the monks who come to watch the battle.
Around the competition venue, rest areas for the six colleges were temporarily set up. Distributed in a hexagonal shape, there is a large flag in front of each area with the name of the participating college written on it.
At this time, three of the six major academies were present, namely Tianji Academy, Canglang Academy, and Luotian Academy. Disciples from Nangong Academy and Yunlan Academy had not yet arrived. The chief master led everyone to sit down under the banner of Famous Sword Academy.
Cheng Ling raised his eyes and saw that of the four major colleges present, Tianji College had the largest number of disciples, with hundreds of disciples, while Canglang College and Luotian College had less than a hundred disciples.
He then said to Jian Yinghao next to him: "Brother Jian, the number of disciples coming from each major academy is very different. As a result, the group battle seems unfair!"
Jian Yinghao explained: "Brother Cheng doesn't know. The number of disciples who can participate in group battles is limited to fifty. No matter how many people there are, it is in vain. Moreover, Western Yunlan Academy is far away from Yujing City, and their disciples rarely come here." Jade Capital City has always had the smallest number of people.”
Cheng Ling was stunned and asked again: "How is the progress of the competition?"
"In order for the major academies to achieve the purpose of mutual exchange, they are conducted one by one, and then several judges judge the pros and cons. Therefore, the exchange meeting will take a long time. The first competition is the alchemy weapon array, and then the three There is a group competition, followed by a team competition, and the courtyard leader competition is the last one."
Cheng Ling understood that in this way, the time of the competition was indeed out of control, especially the weapon refining and formation formation, which took more time. It often takes days to refine a kind of material, let alone the time to break the formation.
Another hour passed, and spectators came one after another, and soon the surrounding stands were full. At this moment, a voice sounded in the square: "Nangong College and Yunlan College come to take the exam~!"
