Ning Xia's victory in the battle with Ming Yaqin furthered her reputation.
If her fight with Li Gui had only spread her fame among a small group of related people before, now everyone really knows such a person, and the reputation of Daojun's disciples is still very powerful.
Ningxia now encounters a lot of people calling her Senior Sister Fufeng or Uncle Senior when she goes out. It was difficult for her to adapt for a while, and she often couldn't react.
"Junior sister, you have to get used to it. It is a good thing to leave your name in the sect. Many monks who have practiced hard for so many years may have become unknown after so many years. You are already very good." Jin Lin sincerely felt for Ningxia happy.
This junior sister of his doesn't say anything and acts very indifferent, but in fact she is very enterprising and has been working hard silently. Learn formations, practice swordsmanship, and practice techniques diligently, without missing a beat. She is learning new things every day, taking care of multiple tasks, and her master’s demands on her are getting higher and higher.
Sometimes Jin Lin seemed to be working so hard for her, and several times he tried to persuade her not to work so hard, but in the end he was defeated by the other party's extremely firm eyes.
It wasn't because the other person saved his life that he looked at him so highly.
To be honest, he has known Ningxia for many years. For a monk, ten years is actually not a long time in terms of quantity. It is indeed an exaggeration to say that it takes a blink of an eye. But this does not mean that time has no meaning to monks, especially for middle and low-level monks, time is something that needs to be raced against time.
Ten years is really long enough for a young foundation-building monk like Jin Lin. He doesn't even spend that long with his family. He has met Ning Xia countless times over the years, and he has a pretty good idea of Ning Xia's temperament and personality.
Ningxia looks meek on the outside and is kind to others. His talent and understanding are not exactly the same, but his temperament is also extremely tough. Overall, he is a relatively upright person. Maybe many people think that this kind of people are boring and have no special characteristics, so they are caught in large numbers in the world of cultivation.
However, on the contrary, Jin Lin feels that this is a rare quality. The most rare quality in the world is the word "righteousness", which is to be impartial, neither crooked nor slanted, treat everything with a normal mind, and insist on taking the brightest and smoothest path... These are inseparable from the word "zheng". But it is precisely the most difficult of all positions to collect.
The other party is like a strange plant of different varieties growing in this land of cultivation world, and every move, word and deed has some incompatible meaning.
It's not because he was born a commoner. He was also born a commoner and was no nobler than anyone else. But he felt that his own was very different from Ningxia's. This is not a difference in personality, but a difference in nature. This difference is hidden very deep. If you have to say what it is... he probably can't tell the difference clearly.
Anyway, in his mind, Ningxia is really a very special existence. He often couldn't help but focus on the other person. The more he observed, the more frightened he became. He envies the other party and at the same time has the desire to pursue him. It can be said that his attitude towards Ningxia has always been complicated.
Until that day, when he woke up from his long dream and learned how he survived, all the complications and speculations turned into admiration.
He is indeed not as good as Ningxia.
What a rare elixir is the Baizhuan Dan Book? He might not be able to do the same thing in another place, at least he wouldn't be able to make such a decision so happily. That Ningxia could take it out just to save his life shows her state of mind.
As the biggest beneficiary, he really opened his heart. He calls each other "Junior Sister" and strives to do what a senior brother should do. He wanted to be able to live up to his reputation as senior brother and his sincere heart.
Jin Lin knew very well how much effort the other party had put in and how many hardships he had gone through to get to where he was today. All this is not accidental——
He is really happy.
The junior sister was still too confident and didn't notice how many eyes were on her now. Apart from those who hated her, more people saw her value and recognized her existence. How many disciples begged for this? Good things don't come. She passed it by and didn't think deeply about it. This is a big problem, and it still lacks the training of human nature and sophistication. It seems that I have to mention it to the master later.
Ningxia didn't know that there might be more social activities and fancy banquets waiting for her in the future. She was worried about another thing now.
"There is probably one more fight to go before the second round. But I see that many people are exhausted from the fighting these days. If the second round starts non-stop, I am afraid that many people will not be able to give their best. After that, It will only become more and more wasted... If this is the case, wouldn’t the competition be greatly compromised?”
Ningxia has participated in several short-term competitions that were continuous battles. The competition itself is very strong, and the competition is secondary, so it feels like life and death. This is also part of the test.
But this competition is obviously different. There are too many people, it lasts for a long time, and the battle line is drawn out for a long time. If it drags on like this, you won't know how much skill you still have until you hit the back. Wouldn't it be a joke if the quality was not as good as before when it came to the finals?
So finally, more than ten days after the competition began, and when the first round was about to end, Ningxia couldn't help but ask.
Jin Lin couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Only at this time can I realize how old you are. It seems that you have never participated in this kind of competition."
Ning Xia's face was full of black lines and said: "Senior Brother Jin, my years of cultivation are not a fraction of your age, and I certainly don't have much experience. Don't laugh at me."
"Okay, okay, that's it..."
After hearing what Jin Lin said, Ningxia suddenly realized. It turns out that this kind of extended battle is really different. There will be a longer interval between the big rounds, so that the disciples participating in the battle can adjust their breath and prepare for the next battle in the best condition. According to past practice, about ten days will be left for the disciples to recover between the first and second rounds. So Ningxia doesn't have to worry about what's going to happen next.
"I thought... this would be good." Ning Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and finally no longer had to worry about what was going to happen next.
"Junior sister, you are planning for the next thing in advance. You still have one game left before you can pass the first round. You can't take it lightly."
"I'm just thinking about it. Because today I'm so tired that I feel like my whole body has been hollowed out. Even if I'm lucky enough to survive one game, I won't be able to survive the next one in a row." Ning Xia smiled bitterly. Well, she admitted that she was just imagining things. But it's good news, she can put half of her heart back.
"Empty out? This word is very vivid. Junior sister, you always say such amazing things, and many of your sentences are quite spiritual... In short, just relax and finish the last game well. If you and Junior Brother He has passed the first round, our Formation Hall is going to host a banquet for you to celebrate." Jin Lin said with a smile and encouragement.
"So good, then let's wait. I will work hard to win so that I can have a good meal. Senior Brother Jin, you have to invest in preparing some delicious food for us, otherwise your wallet will be ruined."
"You are so poor...Okay, I promise you."
