It's not just them.
The disciples in the stands around the Cloud Tower, the peak masters on the Cloud Tower opposite, and even the Sixth Peak Xu Ziyan and others all looked confused.
Wenjian Qingxuan's nomination battle is actually an opportunity for the disciples at the lower peaks to choose a suitable opponent instead of being eliminated in the first round.
Therefore, in this competition, most disciples either do not choose, or choose opponents whose strength is lower than or comparable to their own to challenge (except for disciples like Xu Taiping who have personal grudges).
There are very few people like Lin Buyu who choose the first peak as soon as they come up, and they choose the strongest disciple of the first peak.
Everyone saw Ye Xuan's performance in the last game, Xuan Iron Six Thousand Jin, and said that he is now the strongest disciple of the First Peak, which is not true at all.
In the midst of everyone's discussion, Xu Taiping, who was briefly stunned, suddenly remembered that the bracelet on his wrist seemed to be able to communicate with Lin Buyu's mind.
So he injected a true essence into the bracelet, and after sensing the existence of the other bracelet, he immediately transmitted a message:
"Speechless, can you hear me?"
Not long after, Lin Buyu’s voice sounded in his mind——
"able."
Xu Taiping was overjoyed.
Qingxuanzong has set up a barrier that prohibits sound transmission. Whether it is sound transmission through spiritual thoughts or sound transmission through talismans, it cannot be transmitted beyond a certain distance.
"Why did you choose to challenge Ye Xuan?"
Xu Taiping raised his eyes and looked at Lin Buyu across from Jianping, and asked in his mind.
At this time, Lin Buyu was surrounded by not only many disciples from the Sixth Peak, but also Meng Qingqiu, the master of the Sixth Peak.
A group of people seemed to be trying to persuade Lin Buyu.
"He came to see me last night."
Lin Buyu replied.
"Coming to see you?"
Xu Taiping felt a little strange.
"He asked me to be his Taoist companion."
Lin Buyu answered calmly.
"What?"
Xu Taiping didn't react.
"He asked me to be his Taoist companion."
Lin Buyu repeated it again in a calm tone.
"How did you reply, Buyu?"
After confirming that he heard correctly, Xu Taiping asked curiously.
"I told him to stop dreaming."
Lin Buyu's tone was still very calm.
"Is this why you named him to challenge him today?"
Xu Taiping asked tentatively.
"Well, he said last night that I was the only one worthy of him in the Qingxuan Sect, but he never thought about whether he was worthy of me. So I want to tell him in today's competition that he is not worthy."
Lin Buyu replied.
Xu Taiping was speechless for a moment when he heard this.
Among the people he knew, the one with the most unpredictable personality was Lin Buyu.
"What do you think?"
At this time, Lin Buyu, who was opposite Jianping, looked at Xu Taiping.
"I?"
When Xu Taiping heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then answered firmly:
"Well, he really doesn't deserve it."
He indeed felt that Ye Xuan was not worthy of Lin Buyu in terms of character or cultivation.
Hearing this, Lin Buyu, who was opposite Jianping, raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"You girl, are your master's words so funny?"
Meng Qingqiu, who was persuading him earnestly, suddenly became unhappy when he saw Lin Buyu's smile.
"Is not funny."
Lin Buyu put away his smile and shook his head obediently.
"Then why don't you quickly withdraw the challenge from Elder Black Dragon?"
Meng Qingqiu said anxiously.
"Although I don't like this kid either, he just expressed his admiration to you. How can anyone be like you, chasing after him?"
She went on to add.
Lin Buyu didn't say anything when he heard this and jumped straight onto the stage.
Then I saw her cupping her hands towards Elder Black Dragon and saying:
"Elder Black Dragon, Sixth Peak disciple Lin Buyu, challenges First Peak Ye Xuan by name."
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingqiu staggered and almost fell down.
"This damn girl!"
She was so angry that she stamped her foot hard.
Xu Ziyan persuaded with a bitter smile:
"Forget it, Master, it's not like you don't know what little junior sister is like. No one can stop her from what she decides. Besides, with Buyu's current level of cultivation, Ye Xuan may not be able to hurt her."
Meng Qingqiu sighed after hearing this, then shook his head and said:
"I'm not worried that she will get hurt. I don't want you to go through this muddy water. It's best not to interfere in this matter if you can."
Xu Ziyan frowned slightly when she heard this, and then asked:
"Master, do you really think we can survive alone?"
Meng Qingqiu shook his head when he heard this, then sighed and said:
"We can only take one step at a time."
While the two were talking, Elder Black Dragon's voice sounded again:
"Lin Buyu, the sixth peak, challenges the first peak Ye Xuan by name. Please respond quickly if the first peak Ye Xuan accepts the challenge."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan's brows were furrowed and his face was extremely ugly, as if he had been humiliated.
"Junior brother, she's just a woman. There's no need to take her seriously. If it's for her, it's not worth it to expose your cultivation in front of Xu Taiping."
Yan Bing persuaded Ye Xuan.
The implication is that he doesn't want him to challenge.
"Senior brother, don't worry. Although Lin Buyu's talent is good, it's not to the point where he can expose all his cultivation and strength to me, junior brother. One or two swords are enough to get rid of him."
Ye Xuan said disapprovingly.
After practicing swordsmanship with Su Chan for seven years, the arrogance in him that had subsided a lot was not only back, but tended to get worse.
Yan Bing shook his head when he heard this and stopped persuading.
Ye Xuan took a step forward with a proud look on his face.
Taking one step forward, his figure suddenly turned into a sword light, with a harsh sword sound, and he stood on the sword platform in a flash.
"Junior sister Buyu, if you don't want to, I won't force you, why do you have to go to this point?"
Ye Xuan looked at Lin Buyu coldly.
"Don't be too sentimental."
Lin Buyu responded lightly, and then looked at the Black Dragon elder beside him.
Elder Black Dragon immediately understood, turned to frown and asked Ye Xuan:
"First Peak Ye Xuan, are you willing to challenge?"
"Reporting to Elder Black Dragon, this disciple is willing to accept the challenge."
Ye Xuanchong raised his hand to Elder Black Dragon, then looked at Lin Buyu again and said: "Since it is a competition, I will not hold back."
"oh."
Lin Buyu responded lightly, then put her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, and a sliver of electric light flickered on her fingertips.
At the same time, a wave of aura with the power of thunder spread like a tide on Jianping, covering the entire Wulao Pond.
