The stone tablet reads:
Baili Shaoheng v Lin Qingxue
Wuchen v Pei Zhi
Ye Ling v Lu Wenshan
Su Zichen v Li Chuan
Lin Yun v Shen Que
Lin Yun was happy when he saw the list. The male and female protagonists actually met.
With his sect on one side and his sweetheart on the other, the hero may not be able to sleep tonight.
***
Different from the tense atmosphere in other sects, the atmosphere in the courtyard where the disciples of Lianhua Sect lived was relaxed and there was no sense of tension before the finals.
There was a table of delicious spiritual food in the yard, and they sat around it.
"I'd like to give you this glass. No matter what the result is tomorrow, don't put too much pressure on me. You've done a great job." Wang Defa raised his glass and said.
The clear clinking sound of wine glasses rang out.
"The sect master is right. Four of the top ten are disciples of our Lianhua Sect, which is more than the proportion of Taixu Sect. This alone is enough for us." The third elder raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, then put down the cup. He said loudly:
"Do your best tomorrow and leave the rest to God!"
The second elder exhaled a breath of turbidity, as if he was spitting out all the grievances he had been holding back for many years: "I have never been so happy. Let's see who dares to mock our sect in the future."
Su Zichen's delicate cheeks were stained with crimson. He hooked Mu Yuan's shoulders and said, "Fourth Senior Brother, although Li Chuan is in the early stage of Nascent Soul, I am not afraid of him. I must cut off his sword."
When Mu Yuan heard this, the corners of his lips raised, and the smile that bloomed on his face was as gentle as the spring breeze: "Take it easy, my old man..." His eyes turned to the girl who was immersed in cooking.
"Little junior sister, what do you mean by the word old?"
She raised her eyes and said, "Wife."
"Yes," he continued: "My wife has died in the war, don't hit on your wife again."
"Fourth Senior Brother, don't worry, my Jiuxiao Sword is an ancestral sword, and his is definitely not as strong as mine."
Lin Yun almost choked at the words of the fifth senior brother. Seeing too much pornographic waste is not a good thing.
"Alas~" A sigh sounded, and Pei Zhi felt a headache thinking about tomorrow's opponent: "I'm afraid I will inevitably get a few big slaps in the battle tomorrow."
Ye Ling recalled the battle with the Buddha Sect in the secret realm: "Second Junior Brother, his Buddha's light is very powerful, you should be careful."
He nodded: "Sect Master, do you know what that move is called?"
Defa stroked his long, snow-white beard and said slowly: "Buddha's light shines across the three thousand realms, and the water of Dharma flows across the five continents. He uses the supreme power of the Buddha Sect - the Ten Thousand Buddhas Chao Sect."
"It's been a long time since ordinary disciples can practice. Not even that old bald man can do it."
"This kid's talent is on par with Baili Boy's." Changing the topic, he said with certainty: "Xiao Liu's talent is superior to the two of them."
Lin Yun smiled playfully: "If you praise me so much, I'll be happy."
Chen Qianchao asked curiously: "Little junior sister, you are also a talisman painter, alchemist and weapon refiner, so the sea of consciousness must be very broad."
"It's not bad. After digging for a night at the volcano, the sea of consciousness expanded from the size of several lakes to the ocean."
"The sea!"
There was a sound of slamming on the table and falling of dishes and chopsticks.
Their eyes were as wide as copper bells, and they looked at the calm girl in shock.
She blinked quickly and asked sincerely: "Isn't it yours?"
These words were like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into their hearts.
After a long while, Wang Defa said seriously: "Xiao Liu, don't tell anyone about your knowledge of the sea, and don't let anyone check your knowledge of the sea. Remember!"
"Yes, yes, I remember." He lowered his eyes and glanced at his dantian. The tree inside became stronger and stronger.
She also unexpectedly discovered that in addition to its healing power, every time a branch grew, the spiritual power in its body would become stronger.
Especially after practicing the sword art, two branches sprouted in a row. Now her spiritual power is estimated to have reached...
Before he could finish his thoughts, he was interrupted by sudden thunder in the sky.
Dark clouds as thick as ink gathered over the mountain next door, thunder and lightning surged inside, and huge thunder roared in the dark night.
The momentum was so great that countless disciples with their swords suspended in mid-air watched.
Pei Zhidao: "The disciples of the sect who came to compete have all been arranged to live on this mountain peak. I wonder which disciple of the Taixu Sect is going through the tribulation now. Isn't it Baili Shaoheng?"
"not him."
"Who is that?" He looked at the junior sister who was speaking.
"Lin Qingxue."
"Boom" the first thunderbolt fell.
At the same time, a ray of light bloomed in the Piaomiao Peak, meeting the Tribulation Thunder, and the light waves produced by the collision rippled around.
Everyone thought that she was familiar with Lin Qingxue's aura, so they knew it was her who had overcome the tribulation.
The second elder couldn't help but sigh: "You are about to enter the Nascent Soul at such a young age, and your future life will be terrifying."
Suddenly thinking that the relationship between Xiao Liu and her was not harmonious, he added: "But our Xiao Liu is still more powerful."
"It's okay, Elder Han. I have a broad mind and can hold ninety-nine beauties." Lin Yun lightly jumped up to the roof with his toes. He turned the silver bracelet on his left wrist with his right hand, and his bright eyes reflected the falling rain. Thunder.
"Pfft!" Wang Defa spurted out all the wine in his mouth, looked up at his little disciple standing on the roof and said:
"Xiao Liu, your first priority now is to work hard to break through the Qi refining period, otherwise even one Taoist companion can survive you, let alone ninety-nine."
"Master, my life is more tenacious than Xiaoqiang's. There is no chance that I will become the first person with the longest life in the Qi refining period in history." When he was depressed last time, Long Hao said that she had a special physique. As long as the spirit tree in her body is not alive, It would be no problem to kill a hundred and eighty tortoises.
"Who is Xiaoqiang?"
"cockroach."
Everyone's strange eyes fell on her, and it was the first time they saw a cockroach compared with themselves.
Su Zichen didn't know what he was thinking of, and smiled brightly: "Not to mention they have something in common. Junior sister and cockroaches both like to crawl in dark corners."
"..."
——
The next day's martial arts training ground was packed with people. Not only that, the surrounding open space was crowded with people, and the trees were also full of people. They racked their brains to watch the final.
"The game begins! A loud voice echoed throughout the training ground.
Lin Qingxue held the long sword in her hand and said softly: "Elder brother, be careful."
He raised his hand and waved a sword energy. The water-like sword energy surged out with an endless lingering meaning, and then he flew up with a tap of his toes.
Baili Shaoheng always had a Ruowuoru smile on his lips, and he easily defused the sword energy.
When the sword blades collided, their eyes met, reflecting each other's looks.
The two of them were flirting with each other in an ambiguous manner, which made Qin Yuyan in the audience very angry: "Dad, look at them, they don't look like they are competing, they are clearly adjusting and dancing swords!"
Qin Cang's expression remained as usual: "Your senior brother has his own sense of propriety, but your temper is getting more and more irritable."
"Both two disciples of the Lotus Sect, who are both at the peak of the Golden Core, have entered the top ten. You have disappointed my father so much. After the competition, you can go into seclusion. If you don't break through the Golden Core, you can't even think about stepping out of the mountain!"
Her retort came to her lips and she swallowed it back. Lin Qingxue was already at the level of Nascent Soul, and she had to break through the golden elixir as soon as possible. She must not let her step on her head!
Not only she couldn't stand it, but there was another person who couldn't stand it.
In the ring next to them, Lin Yun got goosebumps from the affectionate sparring between the two, as if he was watching the male and female protagonists in a costume drama spinning around in slow motion.
When Sha Fu responded to Shen Que's attack, he joked: "Are you practicing dual swordsmanship?"
The volume was not lowered deliberately, so that all the monks present could hear it.
Lin Qingxue's face suddenly turned red: "Why can't you get rid of your bad habit of talking nonsense!"
"To be honest, it's a bad habit. Then I'll shut up and you can continue to show off. However, there is a saying that shows affection and you will die quickly."
"The consequence of not paying attention is losing the game." Shen Que looked at the girl who fell into the formation, with a smile flashing in his eyes.
The talismans hidden on the ground emerged and formed a large formation at Lin Yun's feet.
When the formation was raised, four dragons appeared in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and the dragon's mouth opened wide and spit out a chain as thick as an arm, which tightly bound her hands and feet.
Lin Yun shook off the chain on his hand with a curious look on his face: "What kind of formation is this? It's pretty cool."
"I'll tell you after I send you off the ring," the talisman held by Shen Que's fingertips flew out and turned into a big fist and smashed it.
