Fan Ruhua and the other three also drew numbers. Four arenas were built in Dongdandao Square, with five floors of spectator seats, accommodating 8,000 people.
The six arenas in the arena started fighting at the same time. Xiao Yuer came on stage on April 5th to face her first opponent Shan Biao.
Shan Biao later became Dacheng, a ferocious-looking man who was a casual cultivator from the south. Before Xiao Yuer came on stage, she had been silently practicing the ancient forbidden method of inner demons to calm her mood and no longer be nervous.
"Women from the Taoist Academy!" Shan Biao spoke rudely and punched out with a dirty fist. Although Xiao Yu'er doesn't have much self-confidence, after all, it has been more than 20 years since its peak. Her strength follows her heart, and her flying cloud palm slashes in front of the fist.
There was a muffled bang, Shan Biao shook heavily, grinned and almost screamed. Xiao Yu'er felt happy, and the wind in her palm was strong, and she waved it out.
Unless he thought he was good at martial arts, a highly accomplished martial artist would usually not sign up. Shan Biao did not expect that Xiao Yu'er's palm force, which was unattractive in appearance, could be so fierce and he flew backwards.
He pinched with his fingers several times, and a black light lit up in his palm. Two evil ghosts held bone knives and attacked from left to right. Most of the advanced spells are living objects or explosives. The immovable fireball golden sword can be avoided with a dodge and is almost useless to the late warriors.
The evil ghost wears scales and is a ghost general-level ghost. Dark attribute spell. Xiao Yu'er summoned a strange snake with golden tumors, the palm of her hand suddenly lit up, and the flaming python jumped out of thin air.
A python and a snake will fight fiercely with the skeleton ghost. Xiao Yu'er's ghostly shadow came out of the fire, and the shadow of Feiyun's palm as big as a cattail leaf slapped Shan Biao's heart hard.
"Okay!" Fan Ruhua and Jiang Tongquan who were watching the battle cheered loudly. Shan Biao was unable to catch it hard, so he kicked hard with both feet and barely managed to avoid it by sliding sideways.
He had no time to waste any more and ran around the ring, hiding but not attacking. After a moment, seeing that the situation was getting more critical, he hurriedly shouted to admit defeat.
...The four members of Xuanling Taoist Academy all won on the first day. The courtyard is full of joy.
"Where's Sister Li? She's not back so late?" Fan Ruhua suddenly asked after you laughed for a while. Li Zhaoqing and his wife went out early in the morning and did not return for a whole day.
"There are so many places in Dongdan to go to the exchange fair. It's no problem to visit one or three." Lian Shengtong said.
"Today is the first battle between the four of us. It's a big day. It's very strange that Li Zhaoqing and his wife haven't shown up for a long time." Fan Ruhua finished and crushed two transmission notes.
It can be received in Dongdan Island. However, like a sound transmitted into the sea, there is no echo. The faces of everyone looked increasingly grim.
"No way, something could happen on Dongdan Island," Jiang Tongquan said in surprise.
"The two of them have martial arts first. People gather on the island. The alliance patrols day and night. Plus, there are incognito patrols. It's not so easy to get into trouble."
"Perhaps the two of them are in a special place, such as a decadent stone building." Jiang Zhongzhou said with a puzzled expression.
"Then just wait a little longer. If you still don't come back tomorrow morning, I'll report to the manager." Fan Ruhua sighed. …
"Should I summon Brother Xue?" Xiao Yuer asked softly in the room.
"Let's wait a little longer. Anyway, we have a rest tomorrow. Let's think of something ourselves first. We are not children, and we are considered to be female cultivators with a good level."
"Senior Brother Xue really doesn't want to come to Dongdan, so don't rush to call him!" Fan Ruhua said. The red sun rises in the east, and the morning glow is golden and colorful.
Tian Jun often frowned,
"How is it possible that Chaoyou and his wife are missing? Yesterday's martial arts competition just started, and there were very few people leaving the island. Just check the registration and you will know. The alliance is in Dongdan, and there is no underground cave separated by the stone gate." The situation suddenly became serious.
"Executive Tian, please help us think of a solution."
"As soon as I report to the deputy leader, we will immediately arrange to secretly investigate the whereabouts of fellow Taoist Che Li." ...Xue Tong was still thinking about the method of refining. The courtyard door roared, and the jade sign showed Wen Guangmao's anxious news: Something happened in Dongdan!
During the retreat, Hai Falcon was taken over by Wen Guangmao. Xue Tong finished reading the letter and felt confused.
"The Zhiyue martial arts competition is expected to be a decision of the alliance ceremony, not a trap set by Xue."
"Li Zhaoqing really disappeared due to an accident." "It's probably more serious than bad at the moment!"
"The alliance is on tight guard. They are not weak in force, and they are experienced in the business field. They are experienced people. They cannot simply fall into the trap!"
"If there really is any Wang An who dares to touch anyone from the Taoist Academy, Xue Tong will definitely kill him without leaving any trace!" Xue Tong became more and more angry as he thought about it. Isn't the matter between the Zhenyan Sect and the four elders of Yanshan not enough to show off their power? How could anyone come? Plan against Taoist Academy!
"Probably coming for Xue!" Xue Tong could hardly hold back and almost smashed the stone door with one punch.
"Maybe it was an accident," Wen Guangmao speculated and comforted when he saw that Xue Tong was agitated and didn't know what to order.
"Take care of the Taoist temple. I'll be back in the first half of the month." Xue Tong put away the flags on the ground and said. His soul ape has shown signs of upgrading recently, and he has been practicing his scriptures to a critical juncture, but something unexpected happened. How can he not make people angry?
"If the enemy invades, the buildings and buildings here are all foreign objects. It is important to escape." Xue Tong was not sure what the conspiracy meant. It was not impossible to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
...Xiao Yu'er, Fan Ruhua, and Lian Shengtong won another match. After all, Jiang Zhongzhou had been promoted for less than ten years and was weak at the same martial level, so he suffered a defeat.
"We need to try to inform Taoist Xue that Jiang did not expect to win the ranking and will return to Xuanling Mountain tomorrow." Jiang Zhongzhou said.
"No need, Yu'er has already informed Senior Brother Xue."
"There are only three possibilities for the disappearance. The Che couple left without saying goodbye, they were murdered, or they were kidnapped and controlled."
"Business at the Xuanling venue is booming, and there are no conflicts. It is impossible for the Che couple to run away. If they are murdered or kidnapped, we must seize the time to track down the clues. We can't wait for the alliance, let's release the news ourselves and investigate." Fan Ruhua said.
"If there is too much commotion, the kidnapper will be frightened. Will they break up the vote?" Jiang Tongquan worried.
"Fan feels that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. It is difficult to find clues as time goes by. Besides, someone is missing in the Taoist temple. It is normal for us to ask around. This is not a reason to reject the vote."
"I agree with Sister Fan," Xiao Yuer said. ...The news that Xuanling Taoist Temple has disappeared first has spread, and rewards are being offered for clues. No matter how important or ordinary, all will be paid according to the pledge. Anyone who provides key clues will be rewarded with a million spiritual stones.
At Boyao Pier, Xue Tong hurriedly boarded a sea ship. The moment he arrived in Dongdan, he impatiently called to the rear warriors of the alliance and said with a livid face: "Take me to see Tian Junchang or some other important person!"
"I don't know where Manager Tian is, senior, please forgive me!" the man said in fear.
"Tell your boss to come over here and see me!" The dock leader was in the middle, and he wasn't afraid to see Xue Tong.
"Taoist Priest, it's best not to cause trouble here. This is a grand event jointly organized by Zhiyue Eighty-six Taoists. There are so many masters, so you must follow the rules in everything."
"There are fewer people in Laozi's Taoist temple. Have you talked to Xue about the rules? People disappeared in Dongdan for no reason, and the alliance will not care."
"The Taoist priest is"
"I am Xue Tong, please take me to see Tian Junchang immediately!"
"Oh, it's Dean Xue. It's the time of the martial arts competition now. Executive Tian is the supervisor and can't leave. Liu will take you to Zuoying to meet Elder Xia." The dock commander responded very quickly.
At the alliance meeting in Zuoying, Xue Tong met the elder Xia Houang.
"Don't worry, Master Xue. I heard about this and the Alliance is investigating. Please wait for a few days."
"Elder Xiahou, if you have any news, come and listen."
"I'm already very busy with Wu Jing's affairs. I don't have time to inquire more. To be honest, I haven't heard any rumors." Shi, while waiting for rumors.”
"Xue is not interested in being a referee. Please tell Elder Xiahou to inform Executive Tian as soon as possible so that he can come to see Xue immediately after the supervision is over!" Xue crushed the rumor talisman given to Xiao Fan and Xiao Fan.
…
"You can compete with peace of mind. The reward for clues is very good. Is there any feedback?"
"Not yet. Now that Taoist Master Xue is here, there will be more ways to do it." Lian Shengtong admired Xue Tong's methods.
"Actually, it's almost the same. It's just that Xue has more face." Waiting for Tian Junchang in the evening, Xue Tongli made a request: "On the morning of April 5th, those on duty at the lookout post near the Taoist camp, please arrange to meet with Xue."
"The unified arrangement may not be appropriate. Arrangements are made one by one. Tian really doesn't have the energy to negotiate and organize, unless Tian is unwilling to help." Tian Jun often felt embarrassed.
"You go to the alliance leader or deputy alliance leader and ask them to come forward, or I, Xue, will go to the sentry posts one by one to ask. Anyway, I have already called you." Tian Junchang asked the alliance leader Hu Shuo for instructions, and got the agreement.
Xue Tong finished talking to the twenty-six people on the sentry post in batches to corroborate what the messenger at the station said. Generally speaking, Li Zhaoqing and Che Zhengqun disappeared at three o'clock on the fifth day of April in the alien area of Huanshan Camp.
"At that time, there were trading and exchange meetings," Xue Tong visited the local area. No one listened. Xue Tong bit the bullet and tried his best to talk to people about the events of that day and collect clues.
Fan Ruhua is now facing three martial arts competitions.
"If you have nothing to do, let's go and have a look together. I won't be able to find out who is famous."... Fan Ruhua's opponent, Zou Chong, came later.
The two of them sat opposite each other. Zou Chong almost never looked at Fan Ruhua. His face was expressionless and he stroked his beard from time to time.
Xue Tong watched the battle for the first time, with Xiao Yuer and Jiang Zhongzhou beside him. As soon as Wu Jingfang started, Fan Ruhua summoned the Spotted Wolf Spider. Zou Chong had a higher level of martial arts, so it was bound to be a tough battle.
I'll upload it first, and then revise it today and tomorrow. Sorry for the slow update recently, I hope it will be released soon in August, with three or two chapters.
