"The hour of Xu has arrived, and the spirit-taming competition begins now. There are always 2,988 contestants participating in this spirit-taming competition. Please prepare yourself." Lingtanzi floated in the air with a smile on his face. Through the blessing of mana, the loud sound spread to the ears of everyone around.
The noisy surroundings began to calm down, and everyone was staring at the contestants in the field, looking forward to the start of the exciting spirit-taming competition.
Liu Yu first took the "Wind Control Pill", and soon a light medicinal power rose up in his belly and spread along the meridians of his body. Then he activated the "Beiluan Wind Spirit Talisman". After the talisman burned, it turned into a light aura that lingered on the flashing red sword at his feet. The red aura of the flashing red sword was dyed with a layer of green light.
Finally, Liu Yu used all his strength to use "Mysterious Blood Escape Light". Small blood vessels as small as earthworms appeared on his face, his eyes turned red, and a ball of blood escape light burst out from his body, covering his body and the flashing red sword under his feet, turning into a ball of blood. The red light made others look sideways.
Most of the nearly three thousand contestants bought special talismans and elixirs with different effects from Tianfu Tower and Bai Xinglin. They were taking drugs or activating the talismans for a while. The scene looked a bit funny.
Soon, all the contestants were ready, all kinds of spiritual lights flashed brighter and brighter, and strong spiritual pressure suddenly erupted in the competition area.
"Listen to Pindao's command, three, two, one, let's go."
The red wall of light in front of everyone disappeared in an instant, and all the contestants flew out, like thousands of meteors blooming in the sky instantly. Hundreds of thousands of citizens below who came to watch burst into loud cheers.
The people who looked up to admire the moon kept cheering at the meteor shower that turned into the sky. The sound waves followed the flying sword group forward, rising one after another, getting louder and louder.
At this time, the ones flying to the front were Nangong Xiao and Ge Hong. The Xuanyuan Ice Bird and Silver Electric Eagle they were driving were both rare spiritual birds. They accelerated extremely fast. The two spiritual birds went hand in hand, regardless of the top or bottom, and swept everyone away. Left behind.
Nangong Xiao sat cross-legged on the back of Xuanyuan Ice Bird, and the spiritual energy from his whole body was input into Xuanyuan Ice Bird's body, speeding up Xuanyuan Ice Bird's speed. Xuanyuan Ice Bird's whole body was emitting cold light, and mist filled the air between its wings. The silver electric eagle on the side has fierce eyes and silver light shining all over it, like a silver lightning.
Soon, all the contestants disappeared in front of everyone and flew towards Beiluan Taoist Temple.
About half a quarter of an hour later, after Lingtanzi received the spiritual words from Beiluan Taoist Temple, he loudly announced: "The first one to arrive at the Taoist Temple is the Great Wilderness Sword Sect, He Lianyun."
"Okay!" The crowd watching the game in the air burst into loud cheers. Most of these people had placed bets on He Lianyun, and the disciples of the Great Desolate Sword Sect on the "Giant Sword" couldn't help but get excited.
"The second one to arrive is Lingbing Palace, Nangong Xiao!"
Naturally, there was another wave of excitement among the crowd, and cheers filled the sky again.
"The third one to arrive is Bai Xinglin, Miao Yi!"
…
"The tenth person to arrive is Huang Shengzong, Liu Yu!"
Sun Kang and He Anqing looked at each other and saw shocked expressions on each other's faces.
"Junior Brother Liu, you are so strong!" He Anqing couldn't help but say.
Sun Kang's face was uncertain, and he thought to himself: "No wonder he suppressed himself, it turned out to be so deep."
The Huang Shengzong disciples on Huoyunfeng all whispered to each other and began to discuss, who is this Liu Yu? I have never heard of such a number one person!
"Liu Yu? I've never heard of it! Senior brother, where can such a person come from?" Xia Houhe said doubtfully.
"Brother Rong, think about it." Shangguan Ming said with a frown.
Shangguan Ming felt that the name Liu Yu was very impressive, but he couldn't remember it, so he thought hard about it.
"Senior brother, I have just arrived in Beiluan City. Didn't you pick up a group of disciples from the sect a few days ago? Now I am working as a guard in the front hall of my junior sister." Taoist Lingxue said beside him.
Taoist Lingxue was wearing a Ruijin Ru skirt at this time. She was tall and tall, with long hair tied into a bun with a golden five-phoenix hairpin hanging on it. Her face was dignified and charming. At that moment, he was completely different from the other two, causing the disciples around him to peek at him frequently.
"Whose disciple is this boy?" Xiahou He asked.
"Tang Hao's apprentice has average qualifications. I didn't expect him to have second-hand skills. Not bad." Shangguan Ming remembered it at this time and replied.
"Although it's a little worse than Junior Nephew Guo, it's really good to be ranked tenth in the first half of the race. I hope I can keep it up." Huang Jian, another steward of Huang Shengzong, also said.
"Brother Shangguan and nephew Guo are ranked sixth. If you work harder in the second half, there should be hope for the top three." Xia Houhe said congratulations.
Guo Jia, the sixth contestant to arrive at Beiluan Taoist Temple in the first half of the race, is a direct disciple of Shangguan Ming and the most promising to win the championship among the disciples of Huang Shengzong participating in the competition.
"It would be good if he can keep sixth place." Shangguan Ming said with a sad look on his face and shook his head. Guo Jia is his disciple, and Shangguan Ming naturally knows it very well. Guo Jia's advantage is in the first half of the race, and his speed will only decrease later.
Guo Jia has a third-level advanced spell called "Ascension to the Clouds" that he cultivates, which can greatly increase the flying speed, but the duration is limited. Shangguan Ming saw that Guo Jia used the spell "Liu Yun Qi" soon after setting off to increase the flying speed of the flying magic weapon "Liu Guang Yun" under his feet.
The duration of "Shengyun Qi" can support Guo Jia through the first half of the race, and his speed in the second half will naturally decrease. That's why Shangguan Mingcai said that it would be good for Guo Jia to maintain sixth place.
Shangguan Ming's words caused the Huang Sheng Sect stewards on the side to fall into silence. Guo Jia was already the strongest among the Huang Sheng Sect disciples participating in the spirit competition. If he couldn't get a good ranking, Huang Shengzong's results in this Yuling Competition would definitely not look good, and the faces of Huang Shengzong's stewards present would naturally be disgraced.
Every year, a large number of disciples from the four sects participate in the Yuling Competition, which indirectly becomes a secret competition between the four sects. The rankings achieved by the disciples of the four sects in the competition are directly related to the reputation of the sect in Beiluan City.
In the past three years, the rankings achieved by Huang Shengzong's disciples were very unsatisfactory, with no one among the top three. Shangguan Ming specially transferred his disciple Guo Jia from Huangsheng Mountain to Beiluan City this time, hoping that he could get a good ranking for Huang Shengzong.
But Shangguan Ming didn't expect that the disciples from Lingbing Palace, Dahuang Sword Sect, and Ten Thousand Medicine Valley who participated in the competition this year were all extremely outstanding. Guo Jia only ranked sixth in the first half of the competition, and he was very worried.
The speed of the nine streams of light flying in front of Liu Yu dropped when they returned from Beiluan Taoist Temple to Baixing Forest. It was most likely that their spiritual power was consumed too much.
Liu Yu's "Mysterious Blood Escape" mainly consumes the essence and blood in the body, and does not consume much mana. Although it has consumed 10%, it is far from reaching Liu Yu's limit.
The speed of Liu Yu's sword did not slow down at all. Like a bloody meteor, it surpassed the players in front of him one after another and flew towards the finish line.
