Seeing him coming to attend the appointment, Xu Yun didn't waste any time and raised his hand to throw something over.
When I took it, I saw that it was a sign with the words [Yunwu Altar] written on it. It was slightly different from the one given by the second elder. The carving and the material of the sign were quite different.
"This is a temporary cloud and mist card. It will expire when you stay in the cloud and mist altar for two weeks."
Xu Yun explained nonchalantly, as if what he was giving out was an inconspicuous object.
This is indeed the case. For the chief disciple, the time to practice in the Yunwu Altar is not used up at all, and sending him out is just a sprinkling of water.
Qi Mingchen casually looked at the sign, put it away, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother, so what are the rules of the competition?"
"The competition will end when one party loses combat effectiveness or admits defeat. The use of weapons is prohibited and no life will be harmed until the point is reached. How about that?"
After Xu Yun finished speaking, he motioned to He Xiaoxiao on the side to come up to the competition platform.
Such a rule is actually very beneficial to people with high levels. Without the use of weapons, there is basically no chance for people with low levels to come back.
"Okay." Qi Mingchen did not express any objection to this, and after agreeing, he also boarded the competition platform.
The referee is an elder from the outer sect who is resident here. He likes to watch the excitement very much. Every time there is a competition, no matter how big or small, he will actively come to watch it and act as a referee by the way.
"The competition begins!"
With an order, the competition officially begins!
Qi Mingchen did not use the previous stability tactics, but launched the first attack, swinging a fierce straight punch with his right hand, hitting the opponent's front door.
He Xiaoxiao showed a contemptuous sneer, reacted quickly, dodged sideways, and blocked with his palms at the same time.
boom!
Just heard a muffled sound.
He Xiaoxiao took half a step back, and Qi Mingchen took two steps back!
There was an uproar all around.
"Qi Mingchen is obviously not strong enough, so he will definitely lose."
"It seems that he is indeed ready to give up his quota in exchange for the opportunity to practice in the Yunwu Altar. He is just using this competition to regain his respect."
"It's a pity that after paying so much for the quota, we can't avoid being snatched away in the end..."
After He Xiaoxiao stabilized his body, he took advantage of the victory and pursued the attack. The wind blew under his feet and he kicked the lower body with a sweeping kick!
Qi Mingchen seemed to be unable to react in time and jumped up hastily, barely avoiding the blow.
One of the two was playing steadily, the other was in a panic. In the eyes of everyone, the outcome was clearly decided.
However, He Xiaoxiao's opponent was able to dodge every attack he made.
"You mouse, you can really hide!"
He Xiaoxiao became angry and was not ready to continue to struggle. He mobilized the spiritual power in his body and clenched his fists, intending to seriously injure the opponent with one blow.
"Damn it, I fell into a trap." Xu Yun, who was watching, seemed to have discovered something and cursed secretly.
As expected, Qi Mingchen's eyes flashed with a look of success, and his figure suddenly became sharp and clean from the previous panic. He flashed under He Xiaoxiao's waist and swung out a palm.
Unexpectedly, He Xiaoxiao was knocked to the ground by a blow. He clutched his stomach and couldn't get up for a long time.
Qi Mingchen stood in the center of the competition platform. He never really used his spiritual power from beginning to end. He only used the strength that belongs to the third level of pill formation.
It seems that the moisture content of He Xiaoxiao is indeed quite high.
He stood in the center of the competition table, pretending to be exhausted, and asked the referee, "The results of the competition should be out."
The referee squinted his eyes, a light flashed in his eyes, gave him a meaningful look, nodded, and was about to speak.
"No, I didn't give in!"
He Xiaoxiao struggled to get up, with murderous intent in his eyes, his fingers curled into claws, and he aimed his merciless killing move at Qi Mingchen's throat!
Seeing this, he was not prepared to hold back.
Gather the spiritual power belonging to the middle stage of pill formation at your feet and kick the opponent in the chest.
I saw He Xiaoxiao flying in a graceful arc in the air and falling outside the ring, unconscious.
With just one kick, he was kicked out of the ring!
"Did I get dazzled just now?"
"That kick just now should have reached the level of mid-stage pill formation!"
"How is it possible? Wasn't Qi Mingchen still in the foundation building stage a month ago? How long has it been..."
Xu Yun first helped He Xiaoxiao up and checked his injuries. After observing that there was no serious problem, he stood up and stared at Qi Mingchen coldly.
"You're fine."
Qi Mingchen ignored the other party, but looked at the referee and said, "The results can be announced now."
The referee showed a satisfied smile, as if he was very satisfied with this competition. He raised his hand and said: "The competition is over, the winner: Qi Mingchen!"
As the words fell, the battle for quotas finally came to an end.
Now, no one in the sect has any reason to fight for their own spot...
Qi Mingchen felt like the dust had settled in his heart.
Xu Yun on the side was obviously not ready to let him go easily. He saw the other party slowly stepped forward and said quietly: "You deliberately hide your strength just to get benefits from me. You are so scheming!"
Qi Mingchen felt a little baffled. From the beginning to the end, it was the other party who took the initiative to cause trouble. How could he deceive him?
He didn't bother to explain too much, he just said, "I just broke through two days ago, how can I hide my strength?"
"There was indeed someone who broke through to the middle stage of pill formation two days ago. Could it be him?" someone whispered.
"How is it possible to break through so quickly? This cultivation speed is already comparable to the genius of Jiange!"
Xu Yun frowned slightly when he heard the conversation nearby.
We just broke through, how could it be such a coincidence?
He took a few steps forward, grabbed Qi Mingchen's wrist, and felt it carefully, trying to find traces of using pills to forcibly increase his strength.
But all I felt was obedient and stable spiritual power, and an extremely uncomfortable feeling that came from nowhere.
I always feel that there will be danger if I sense deeper...
"It is indeed stable at the fourth level of pill formation." Xu Yun had to admit this fact.
Under the certification of the Chief Disciple, everyone was shocked. There was no fraud, and they were actually promoted to the middle stage of the Dan Formation. In the quota competition a week ago, they were promoted to the third level of the Alchemy Formation on the spot in full view of everyone.
In other words, it only took Qi Mingchen less than two weeks to rise from the third level to the fourth level.
What an amazing cultivation speed.
Xu Yun couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
If he is allowed to continue to improve, his status as a direct disciple of his head will definitely be affected!
"How much do you think the one-month quota for Jiange training will help improve your strength?" Xu Yun asked lightly, concealing his murderous intent.
"..." Qi Mingchen was too lazy to deal with this "chief disciple" and could only wait in silence.
Xu Yun thought that he had listened to his words seriously, and he took advantage of the victory and said, "In just one month, your strength can be improved by one level at most, but what if there is this?"
He turned his hand over, and a dark red pill appeared in his palm.
"Huayuan Dan! Oh my god, isn't this the Huayuan Dan temporarily auctioned by the Star Chamber of Commerce!"
someone exclaimed.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked.
"This is an elixir worth ten thousand middle-grade spiritual stones!"
