Of course Xiao Fengming didn't know that the whole process of the competition was seen by the master and was affirmed. 【Full text reading】[]
After the competition, life returned to its original rhythm.
In the early morning of this day, Xiao Fengming came to the dining place. At this time, many of his classmates were having breakfast, so he found a place to sit down.
At this moment, I heard two people talking to each other on the table behind them.
At first, he didn't pay much attention, but suddenly he heard someone say:
"I heard that Senior Brother Lin has been practicing very diligently during this period. His Fuhu Stick Technique has reached the fifth level. He will definitely win the competition next year and enter the Elite Hall."
The other person didn't seem to be very interested in Senior Brother Lin and said lightly:
"That's not necessarily the case. The other competitive ones are also very powerful, and they are much more powerful than the year before. Maybe there will be other disciples who appear. It is not easy to win in the competition. "
Xiao Fengming was stunned for a moment, Dabi? He had heard something about it, but he hadn't figured out the details yet.
So, he turned around and looked at the two of them. They were both fifteen or sixteen years old. I don’t know them all, they should be the disciples selected in the previous session.
Xiao Fengming stood up, came to the two people, bowed and saluted, and then said respectfully:
"Two senior brothers, excuse me. I have something to ask you two senior brothers. I wonder if you can tell me?" The two looked at him and found that he was only twelve or thirteen years old. They knew that he was a new disciple. There was a look of displeasure on his face, and for the sake of being from the same sect, he said calmly:
"I don't know if you have anything to ask. If it's not too much trouble, we can explain it to you."
Xiao Fengming smiled and said: "No trouble, I just want to ask the two senior brothers, what is the big competition I just mentioned?"
When the two people heard this, their originally displeased expressions immediately changed. One of them looked a little excited and said:
"So that's what happened. It's understandable that you don't understand. Three years later, the teachers will tell you the details. Since you want to know, we can tell you a little bit in advance."
The man adjusted his thoughts and then said: "When it comes to the Grand Competition of our sect, it is a major event related to all our disciples training in Bailian Hall. The Grand Competition is a competition every three years for the disciples of Bailian Hall to win. The top twenty can enter the Elite Hall to continue their training, the Elite Hall is the essence of our sect."
Another person continued: "In the competition, if you perform well, you may be favored by the elder and join his disciple. Then you can reach the sky in one step." After saying this, he looked full of yearning.
"But this kind of competition does not require you, the new disciples, to participate. You can only wait three years."
Xiao Fengming listened carefully and finally had a clearer understanding of the Bailiantang competition. He gratefully bowed to the two of them, thanked them and sat back down in his seat.
At this time, he felt very uneasy. After more than a year of hard training, my proficiency in the Piao Liu Thirteen Styles has improved greatly. When fighting against his senior sister, he was already on par with her.
Although the senior sister did not try her best, she also left some room.
I heard from my wife that she is already the best among the disciples of her generation. If you take part in the competition next year, you should be able to gain something.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fengming couldn't help but feel excited.
After finishing the meal in a hurry, we went straight to Baizhang Cliff. When I arrived at Baizhang Cliff, I discovered that the master and his wife were not there, and I didn’t know where they had gone. I had to go back angrily.
This happened every day for several days. Later, I learned about it from a teacher.
It turned out that Hall Master Zhang had gone to arrange the selection of disciples, and his wife took her senior sister to her school.
Since the distance between various places is different from Luoxia Valley, the selection of young disciples every three years must be scheduled one year in advance.
As a last resort, Xiao Fengming put aside the martial arts competition and devoted himself wholeheartedly to practicing martial arts.
On this day, Duan Meng suddenly came to Xiao Fengming's room and handed him a letter with a happy face.
He quickly picked it up. It was from his eldest brother Qin Xiang. He had not heard from his family for a long time. When he saw the letter from his eldest brother, he was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly opened it.
The eldest brother told him in the letter that the thirty taels of silver he sent to his family had been received, and that his parents, grandparents were all well, and told him not to worry, to take care of himself, and to practice martial arts with peace of mind.
Xiao Fengming's heart flew back to that small mountain village and met his grandparents, father, and mother. It had been nearly two years since he left home.
Being away from his parents for such a long time, an eleven or twelve-year-old child still misses him deeply. He thinks about his parents and feels very uneasy...
A month later, Xiao Fengming finally met his long-awaited master. After greeting him, Xiao Fengming told Hall Master Zhang that he planned to participate in the martial arts competition next year.
After hearing Xiao Fengming's words, Hall Master Zhang pondered for a long time, then looked up at him and said:
"Feng Ming, it's not forbidden to participate in next year's competition. Although you have some foundation in martial arts, you still have a certain gap compared to those senior brothers. I hope you are mentally prepared."
After listening to the master's explanation, Xiao Fengming immediately replied without any hesitation, "Master, please rest assured. I took part in the competition and did not intend to enter the top twenty. I just wanted to increase my practical experience and always practiced alone." , I can’t find my own shortcomings without fighting. I hope Master can promise me.”
Hall Master Zhang saw that Xiao Fengming had made up his mind, so he said no more. Let him go back and get ready.
