Xuanmen Hall.
Canglong Peak is located among the five main peaks.
It is only three thousand feet high, less than half of the five peaks. It has neither dangerous peaks nor strange valleys and cliffs, so it looks plain and ordinary.
However, the head office of the Ancient Xuan Sect was built here, so its importance ranked first among the sects.
Anyone who wants to enter Canglong Peak must have the status of a direct disciple, or be led by a direct disciple before being allowed to enter.
It can be said that the control is very strict.
Therefore, after Shu Shuang left due to something, he had to entrust the Lingyin Peak team members to Zong Shouyi.
Otherwise, they really can't get in.
After leaving the deep valley, under the leadership of Zong Shouyi, the Lingyin Peak team members came to the outskirts of Canglong Peak - the Zimu Hall through the teleportation array.
Zimu Hall is still more than a hundred miles away from Canglong Peak. Disciples who come here must first go through a strict inspection and then register before being allowed to leave.
After leaving the Zimu Palace, you can take the Flying Talisman to the Xuanmen Palace in Canglong Peak.
In short, the procedures for entering and exiting Xuanmen Hall are very complicated.
After a strict inspection, a group of more than ten people finally walked out of the Zimu Hall and came to the square in front.
According to the rules of the competition, all teams need to wait here, and a dedicated person from the competition will lead them to the competition venue.
At this time, some members of the team had gathered in the square. When they saw them walking out of the Mother and Son Hall, they immediately cast their eyes on them.
"It's Lingyin Peak Team!"
Someone recognized them and immediately called out.
"Come as soon as you come, what's the fuss about?"
"I heard that for this competition, Shu Shuang even took the trouble to drag them to the valley for several months of training. I wonder what the effect was?"
"Results can be seen within a few months of intensive training? Do you think taking Dali Pills?"
"That's right! Should the Lingyin Peak team lose, they still have to lose, and they still have to be at the bottom. There won't be much change."
…
After seeing the Lingyin Peak team, these teams immediately jeered.
As the captain, Qin Chunsheng was angry, but he had nothing to say.
What they say is true. In the past three years, the Lingyin Peak team has indeed lost miserably. It has been unnamed and at the bottom for three consecutive years.
Unfortunately, he has experienced it first-hand, and the shame can be imagined.
Fortunately, Zong Shouyi was here. After hearing these comments, he calmly stood at the front of the line, and these comments naturally disappeared.
"Brother Zong."
"Brother Zong."
I saw a young man walking out of several teams and walking towards Zong Shouyi with a smile on his face.
Among them, there is also a young, beautiful and good-looking woman.
The team behind her were all female disciples. They were all dressed in fancy outfits and looked heroic, not inferior to the men at all.
These people are all in the Dongming Realm, and they seem to be direct disciples of each peak. Otherwise, they would not be so familiar with Zong Shouyi.
Zong Shouyi also smiled and came forward to greet him, just like meeting an old friend.
So, a few people stood together and started chatting.
"Fellow brothers, do you know why the team's offensive and defensive battles suddenly increased in this year's competition?"
asked Xu Guanying of Shenlong Peak.
"I've heard a little bit about it."
Yin Xiaosu from Goddess Peak said in a deep voice: "I heard that the increase in offensive and defensive battles has a lot to do with the sect's expedition."
"Junior sister Yin, what news did you hear?"
Zeng Renxiang from Yingzui Peak is tall and speaks in a buzzing voice that makes people feel like tinnitus.
Yin Xiaosu frowned, but she didn't have an attack. She just gave Zeng Renxiang a meaningful look.
Zeng Renxiang realized something immediately and laughed sheepishly.
Yin Xiaosu glanced at everyone and said: "It is said that the process of Tianyin Pavilion's submission to the sect was quite unsatisfactory.
There was a small group of die-hards among them who refused to surrender. After the sect surrendered to Tianyin Pavilion, they retreated to the mountains and forests.
Subsequently, these people organized many small but smart teams, and went down the mountain from time to time to carry out sneak attacks and assassinations. Many sect disciples lost their lives in this way. "
"Junior sister Yin, are you saying that the sect organizes this kind of team attack and defense to target the die-hards in Tianyin Pavilion?"
Chang Qianzhong from Ziyun Peak asked.
"Whether it is, it will become clear after the Five Peaks Competition."
Yin Xiaosu said.
At this time, five flying talisman flew from a distance and landed on the square. When several people saw it, they stopped talking.
The five men in black clothes stood on the flying talisman and did not jump off.
"Junior brothers, you have been waiting for a long time."
I saw a hunky-backed man saying loudly: "Please ask members of each team to board the talisman boat. We will go to the competition venue immediately."
Under the leadership of five direct disciples, the disciples of the five teams boarded the flying talismans and flew away.
The land of a hundred miles was reached in less than a quarter of an hour.
Qiu Fei discovered that after the Flying Talisman entered Canglong Peak, he immediately saw a majestic palace building standing on the top of the mountain, which was very spectacular.
However, the flying talisman did not land. Instead, it passed by the building complex and flew towards the back mountain of Canglong Peak.
Along the way, we also encountered routine inspections by air patrols.
After confirming that everyone's identity was correct, the flying talisman slowly drove into the back mountain of Canglong Peak and landed in a valley.
The valley is a hundred feet wide, the ground is flat, and short green grass grows there. It is surrounded by green mountains and green water flows frequently, making the environment very quiet.
What is even more peculiar is that there are five platforms several feet high standing prominently in the valley. They are built on the edge of the valley, more than thirty feet apart.
The top of the platform is three to four feet wide, with a flat surface that can accommodate twenty people standing.
Each of the five flying symbols chose a platform to land on.
It seemed that the competition venue had arrived, and everyone jumped off the flying charms.
The five men in black clothes did not stop, activated the flight talisman again, and left the valley.
"New players may not know where this is."
Zong Shouyi introduced: "This is a secret of the sect, which is generally not spread to the outside world. Now, there is an ancient formation hidden under our feet.
It is called the Five Elements Hidden Array. These five towering platforms are the eyes of the Five Elements Hidden Array, representing the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
The Five Peaks Competition is held in this Five Elements Hidden Formation. I hope that this competition can help Lingyin Peak improve its ranking and no longer be at the bottom.
This is not only an affirmation of your hard training this year, but also the hard work Shu Shuang has put in this year. "
After everyone heard this, they fell into silence.
The excitement that was still on their faces just now dissipated, and they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
After Zong Shouyi finished speaking, he sat cross-legged and silently adjusted his breath like an old monk in meditation.
Looking at the other teams, everyone is also adjusting their breath, without any distractions.
So, everyone followed suit and each chose a place to sit down and make their own adjustments.
Qiu Fei took the little black girl, Lang Da and Lang Er to a corner of the platform, away from everyone, lest the three little guys disturb them.
In the evening, the five team captains returned.
As soon as he landed on the platform, Shu Shuang gathered everyone together and the first thing he said was, "I changed the competition personnel."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
OK, why change your previous decision?
One day ago, Shu Shuang and the team members conducted a careful study on the personnel arrangements for this competition.
In the end, it was unanimously decided that a team of five people would participate in the team's offensive and defensive battles. They had been working together for three years and were already very familiar with each other.
The members of the second team will participate in the individual competition.
It can be said that in order to ensure the team's offensive and defensive battle, Shu Shuang gave up the individual competition.
There were only four individual matches, but the second team had six players. Qiu Fei was eliminated first because of his low level and weak strength.
Liu Baishi suffered internal injuries due to the last time he hunted the golden demon wolf. Although he has improved, his body has not been adjusted to its optimal state and he was replaced by Hua Youban.
"Captain Shu, what happened?"
Qin Chunsheng couldn't help but ask.
Shu Shuang took a few deep breaths and then said: "What we studied before was that the team's offensive and defensive battles are a new item. Other teams should not pay attention to it and should send the second team to play.
In this way, if we send the strongest team to participate, we are 80% sure of winning. "
Everyone nodded after hearing this. This was how they studied it in the first place.
"Things have changed now."
Shu Shuang said in a deep voice: "When I went to submit the list of players, I found that the other four teams attached great importance to this offensive and defensive battle, and they all sent out strong teams."
"so what?"
Zong Shouyi frowned.
"so……"
Shu Shuang hesitated for a moment, but finally said it, "I replaced the first team and let them compete for the individual competition with all their strength.
The second team competes offensively and defensively with the first team of other teams. It would be great if they get points by luck, but it doesn't matter if they fail. "
Everyone understands.
Shu Shuang did this to avoid his sharp edge.
After losing for three consecutive years, the Lingyin Peak team needs a big victory to prove themselves.
Suddenly, everyone remained silent, digesting the news in their hearts.
After a while, Qin Chunchang breathed a sigh of relief and said solemnly: "I resolutely obey Captain Shu's decision."
After hearing what Qin Chunsheng said, everyone nodded heavily.
"Here's the roster."
Shu Shuang took out a piece of paper from his storage bag and said, "Shao Daqiang moves quickly and is good at using bows and arrows, so he is not suitable for individual competitions.
Therefore, I transferred him to the second team to assist Liu Baishi in this offensive and defensive battle. "
Liu Baishi was stunned after hearing this, thinking that he heard wrongly, and couldn't help but ask: "Captain Shu, I also want to play offensive and defensive games?"
Shu Shuang rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are the captain of the second team and you have a good sense of the overall situation. If you don't join, who will?"
"Ah...oh! Team Shu, please rest assured. I will definitely lead the second team to fight a good offensive and defensive battle and strive to get points for the team."
Liu Baishi had tears in his eyes and was very excited.
Before, when he was disqualified from the competition, he felt very disappointed. Now that he suddenly learned that he could fight again, he was naturally extremely excited.
I heard Shu Shuang say again: "Wu Hexi, Shi Guancong, and Qiu Fei, the three of you are also participating in the offensive and defensive battles, and you must obey Captain Liu's orders."
"yes!"
"ah!"
"ah?"
Almost at the same time, Wu Hexi, Qiu Fei and Hua Youyan spoke out at the same time.
However, one was a resounding answer, and the other two were surprised.
Wu Hexi had been selected as a participant before, and his response was no surprise.
Qiu Fei was surprised.
He was the first one to be cut off from the previously agreed list of personnel, and he did not expect Shu Shuang to add him.
The most unexpected thing is that flowers have company.
He never expected that before he was ranked first among the participants of the second team, after this change, he actually dropped out.
This made him, who had always been arrogant and arrogant, unable to accept it.
