After screening out nearly half of the people, the overall level suddenly improved. In short, it is almost impossible to find a weakling who was defeated in one move like yesterday.
Today's competition was obviously of a much higher level, not as mixed as yesterday's. Of course, not all of them are, there are also many insidious villains who want to take advantage of trouble.
Some of the tricks were so clever that even the referee's disciples didn't notice them, and it was they who read the chips who picked them out. Some used extremely clumsy methods and were immediately discovered and disqualified on the spot.
However, Ningxia later learned that those guys who thought they were hiding the truth were immediately arrested by the greedy disciples who heard the news and were disqualified.
She even suspected that there was one of their "undercovers" among the disciples who were watching, specializing in finding out those who used dirty tricks.
However, most of the monks followed the rules of the sword competition and concentrated on the sword competition. With one sword being superior or inferior, everything was fine.
After watching for so long, Ningxia discovered that a large proportion of the contestants in the sword competition were descendants of aristocratic families. And they are all capable characters, and they won't have stage fright when using real swords. They are all trained through relatively systematic family education, and their average level is relatively high.
The level of civilian casual cultivators is generally lower. Many of them follow wild paths and lack resources. Not one of the three may be able to resist.
It's easy to tell them apart, just look at the clothes and clothing. Most of the people who are well-dressed, with fresh and elegant clothing patterns, and wearing rings around their waists are children of aristocratic families. Most of the people wearing brand-new costumes were civilian cultivators, and the robes were probably purchased after long savings.
It's just that the difference in background can still be easily seen. Inner self-confidence cannot be eliminated with one or two fancy clothes.
Ningxia once again deeply felt the cruel fact that "it is difficult for children from poor families to get ahead".
In fact, this is not just the case on this island, but also in the vast world of cultivation outside.
If she hadn't been lucky enough to be supported by a relatively powerful sect, she would have encountered some injustice and oppression while walking in the world of cultivation. The strength of the Wuhua Sect ensures this, allowing them to stand upright in the southeastern border. For this, Ningxia expresses its heartfelt gratitude...
However, not all monks in this world are so lucky to have a strong sect. If they are unlucky enough to join such a small sect at the bottom of the cultivation world, they will not have enough confidence to walk outside. Who said they don't have a powerful sect?
What's more... those casual cultivators without sects belong to the most obscure group in the entire cultivation world. They are composed of some disciples who accidentally disappeared from the mortal world or escaped from the original sect. They have no affiliation, do not belong to any force, and walk alone in the world of cultivation.
Everything you use requires planning and hard work, and can easily be stolen or robbed. It can be said that except for those powerful casual cultivators who can escape the world on their own, the rest are almost always at the bottom of the cultivation world.
Therefore, many disciples of the sect do not think highly of these monks. I feel that they have a bad origin and are a group of people who want to reach heaven.
So in the eyes of some people, the base is really important. If your heels are not straight, it is equivalent to being out of line. No matter what, you will be looked down upon.
No matter how much you talk about it, it's useless, like "Princes, generals, ministers, Ning Ning, etc. have their own kind", or "Heroes don't ask where they come from". They will never admit your strength without feeling your truly overwhelming strength.
Common people who take the "wild path" are destined to have a more difficult path than the noble sons of aristocratic families.
She should say that whether it is ancient times or modern times, even if time and space have changed, this world is still so terrifyingly real.
Just like... now. After sending another disciple from Zilaishu over, Ningxia sighed.
At the opening yesterday, the atmosphere was intense and everyone followed the line and did not do anything out of line. In addition, everyone is not very familiar with each other, so these people only dare to observe openly and covertly, without making too many inquiries.
But after one day, everyone had almost figured out the basics and got to know each other, and some people began to think more broadly. They focused their attention on Ningxia, the most eye-catching and mysterious among this group of relatives.
They have never seen this girl named Ningxia. I have never seen such a person in the upper-class social circle.
At this family table, there are children from aristocratic families, ordinary monks, and reserve members of Greedy Wolf Mace. The common point is that there is a respectable Greedy Wolf Mace disciple in the family who has won seats here for them.
As I said before, many of them know each other. Perhaps the only one among them who really knows nothing is Ningxia.
This has always made her a gossip at the family table. In modern terms, everyone wanted to “pick up” her, to find out which family she was from so that they could make friends with her.
After all, this little girl is very powerful. She has already established a foundation at a young age. The resources on the island are scarce, and the family favors sons over daughters. It is not easy to produce such an outstanding girl. For this reason, they are all fighting various little tricks in their hearts——
But their hopes were doomed to fail. Ningxia is neither a descendant of an aristocratic family, nor is he as outstanding as they thought, and he is even an outsider who has only been here for a short time.
In response to their overt and covert inquiries and inquiries, Ningxia dealt with them casually.
They also didn't dare to go too far due to the face of Lang San during the opening, so they all went over politely. It's just that the investigation behind the scenes is not within the scope of Ningxia's attention.
She was leaving soon anyway. After we leave, we might never see each other again, I'm afraid of them!
She was now focused on the thing Xie Shi gave her. what is it? Why can't you say it on the spot? Do you want to do this in private? Ningxia is puzzled.
I wish I could take it out and read it now. Especially under the noses of these little gossips, they already paid enough attention to her. Ning Xia relaxed for a moment after being stared at tightly, thinking about going back later to take a look.

"Aqi, did you hear any strange noises?" A disciple jumped off the competition platform after the competition and suddenly said to his companions who greeted him.
"what sound?"
"It was during the competition that I heard a buzzing in my ears, and it disappeared all of a sudden. It was very strange. I thought it was tinnitus."
"No. I haven't heard anything since I've been here. Maybe you swung the sword too hard and had hallucinations." The disciple smiled, thinking that his companion was overthinking. He quickly went to pull the person down so as not to hinder the next fight.
"Really?" The disciple scratched his head and thought about it and felt that his companion was right. There was no need to worry about such a trivial matter. So I gave up thinking about this issue.
