"The swordsmanship of the ancient sword is also in the realm of sword energy, but the combination of the swordsmanship and magic of the ancient sword makes it so powerful. Kang Tian, if your swordsmanship reaches the late stage of sword energy, you can resist it." Zhou Lei He spoke comfortingly.
"I didn't expect that I actually lost." Kang Tian said a little decadently.
"A temporary failure is nothing." Zhou Lei advised.
"After experiencing failure, I enjoy the delicious taste of victory even more." Kang Tian said.
"Some people are suitable for swordsmanship, some are suitable for magic, and some are suitable for a combination of the two. No matter which one, it is not simple. As long as we practice swordsmanship to the depths, we can defeat anyone." Zhou Lei laughed. said.
"Besides, Kang Tian, you are already ranked twenty-eight, and you are eligible to participate in the outer sect competition." Zhou Lei said happily.
……,…….
Three days have passed since Xiaobi reached the Seventeenth Peak.
Zhou Lei, who returned to Zhou Lei's residence to practice cultivation, and Kang Tian lived here, both maintaining their own cultivation realm.
Their strength has greatly improved compared to a few days ago.
Especially Zhou Lei and Kang Tian have found their own paths.
Xuangui Sword Sect is named after swords, and swordsmanship is its foundation. However, not all disciples of the Black Turtle Sword Sect are suitable for swordsmanship. For example, ancient swords are more suitable for the combination of swordsmanship and magic.
The same goes for everyone else, what suits you is the best. The Black Turtle Sword Sect does not require all disciples to learn swordsmanship.
But Zhou Lei and Kang Tian are more suitable for swordsmanship. As for the array diagram, ghosts are just auxiliaries and cannot be prioritized.
These days, in order to improve his cultivation level, his sword skills have been somewhat neglected. After these battles, Kang Tian found his goal, and Zhou Lei also found it.
……,…….
On this day, in the early morning, the morning sun rose from the sky of Shiwan Mountain, and its light illuminated the entire world.
One after another, the melodious and loud bells spread hundreds of miles away!
The huge central square at the outer gate of Black Turtle Sword Sect is surrounded by people from all walks of life. They either gather in the huge square, or stand on the edge of the square, looking for a suitable position, or stand on the trees and occupy the A great viewing location.
Among these people, there are heads of small sects and small forces under the Black Turtle Sword Sect, heads of large families and large forces, city lords of cities... and so on.
Of course, there are more outer disciples wearing Black Turtle Sword Sect costumes!
The huge flow of people filled the entire square with a dark sea of people.
"Clan Leader Zhou, it's a pleasure to meet you. Why are you free to come here today?"
"Haha, the Black Turtle Sword Sect is the master. How can I not come to such a big event as the outer sect competition? It would be good to bring a few guys over and let them see it, so as not to be arrogant all day long and sit in a well and watch the sky."
"Clan Leader Zhou is joking. Your Zhou Jialin son is well-known far and wide. Who in Tiannan City doesn't know Zhou Su's name? If your Lin son enters the outer sect, he will definitely get a place as an inner sect disciple in this competition."
"Haha, no prizes, no prizes!"
Under the Black Turtle Sword Sect, the forces of various families are intertwined with each other. Although the friendship is not that deep, they at least have a basic understanding of each other, and they talk and laugh with each other.
Even when it comes to rising up, some practitioners even leave messages and agree to go to a certain place for adventure when they are free.
The huge square was designed to accommodate tens of millions of outer disciples.
But at this time, due to the Xuangui Sword Sect's outer sect's grand event, more than tens of millions of people gathered here?
In the center of the square, there are a total of 200 newly built huge circular arenas. The entire arena is composed entirely of green stone as hard as fine iron. It seems that the cultivators have the ability to cut it away from the mountain in one piece. .
On the edge of the ring, there are ancient and mysterious formation tattoos engraved on it. They are defensive formations to prevent the fighting on the ring from impacting the surrounding spectators.
As time passed, the disciples from the outer sect peaks arrived one by one. The disciples from the outer sect peaks neatly formed square formations, from the first to the hundredth, arranged in the entire square. Each disciple from the outer sect peaks Only thirty disciples went into battle.
The entire Black Turtle Sword Sect has one hundred outer sect peaks, and the total number of outer sect disciples participating is 3,000. These outer sect disciples themselves are the thirty strongest people selected from each outer sect mountain peak! Therefore, the participating cultivators are all elites among the one hundred outer sect peaks of Black Turtle Sword Sect!
Of course, this is not the level of all the elite disciples of the entire Black Turtle Sword Sect's outer disciples.
In the Outer Sect Mountain Peak, if the Outer Sect disciples are unable to advance within ten years or three competitions, they will be eliminated from the Black Turtle Sword Sect and will no longer enjoy the various benefits of the Black Turtle Sword Sect and the Outer Sect disciples, and they will also have to Accept a fixed number of tasks assigned by the sect every year.
In the Black Turtle Sword Sect, the number of inner disciples is limited after all, which means that a large part of the outer disciples will be eliminated from the outer mountain peak every year in ten years.
Some who are unwilling will continue to stay in the Black Turtle Sword Sect to gain a chance of survival. Some will go to Black Turtle Academy, and some will go on adventures.
Moreover, unless one is promoted to General Bone Realm, there will no longer be any chance to enter the inner sect and advance further within the sect.
But these Black Turtle Sword Sect disciples who were eliminated from the Black Turtle Sword Sect and the Outer Sect Peak are still the same as the outer disciples, and they can be regarded as belonging to the category of the Black Turtle Sword Sect's outer disciples.
Of course, these outer sect disciples are just in name only. Compared with the outer sect disciples at the outer sect peak, they are the eliminated outer sect cannon fodder.
Among the millions of outer sect disciples of Xuangui Sword Sect, there are only between 100,000 and 200,000 outer sect mountain disciples.
The number of outer disciples who failed in promotion and were eliminated in previous years has been accumulated year by year, and the number has remained at around 800,000.
Although these cultivators have become the first-class cannon fodder cultivators abandoned by the Black Turtle Sword Sect, because they have practiced much longer than the disciples of the Outer Sect Peak, among some of the top cultivators of the Laowai Sect disciples, It may not be inferior to some of the top disciples of the outer sect’s mountain peaks.
It's just that because of their potential, they are not taken seriously by the sect. Unless they have the opportunity to enter the general bone realm, it is impossible for them to enter the inner sect in this life.
It’s said to be the Black Turtle Sword Sect’s Outer Sect Competition, but actually it’s more accurate to say it’s the Black Turtle Sword Sect’s Outer Sect Mountain Competition!
However, these are not within the scope of Zhou Lei and Kang Tian's concern.
At this time, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian were in the square array of the seventeen peaks of the outer sect, and they were inconspicuous among the three thousand disciples of the outer sect's peaks.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian closed their eyes to rest and prepare for the upcoming battle.
Not long after, a clear voice came from the sky. It was not loud, but it clearly entered the ears of millions of people in the square.
"Haha, I've bothered you all to wait for a long time." I saw several rays of light falling from the sky and falling around the high platform in the square. Among this group of people, there was someone carrying a long sword on his back, and his face was covered with mist, making it difficult to see his face. . Some people are like little giants carrying the sky on their backs, and their bulging muscles look like ferocious monsters. There were people with cold faces, full of holy and inviolable temperament, who fell into the field one by one and settled down on their seats on the high platform.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian didn't know who the people above were, nor their status, nor their cultivation level.
