"Xu Qiancheng of the Guiyuan Sword Sect, please give me some advice!"
The unruly young man jumped onto the ring with a sweep of his sword. The other people who were being laughed at by the crowd had just raised their feet when they were pushed back by the sword energy.
Gudong, the male cultivator in the ring, swallowed his saliva, why didn't he follow the routine?
Swords flew, screams were heard, and the monk who wanted to take advantage of the chaos was beaten up and down by Xu Qiancheng.
Jiang Yuebai couldn't bear to see it, Qi Ming said with a smile, "There was also a guy over there who just came up and started making fun of the crowd to attract people to come up. Then he took advantage of the chaos and fought for five or six people before he was defeated. I don't know who came up with this method. It's despicable. It’s a little bit complicated, but it’s very effective.”
Jiang Yuebai had a serious look on his face, "It must be a very smart person who came up with it, but you also have to be strong to do so, otherwise you see... the boat will capsize!"
The man had been knocked off the ring by Xu Qiancheng, his skin and flesh were torn, he was sleeping on the ground and howling, and he deserved to be scolded by a bunch of people around him.
"Xu Qiancheng, you idiot, I asked you to keep your name, but you are so arrogant to me, why don't you get out!"
Xu Qiancheng's sister Xu Qianjin put her hands on her hips and cursed angrily below.
Seeing this, Qi Ming said to Jiang Yuebai, "Actually, there are many loopholes in the rules of the primary election. Group battles are not the only loopholes that can be exploited. However, this is not the most important thing. Everyone wants to break the boundary pearl. Even if At the beginning, we can join forces for many-on-many, but the big formation count is only based on the move that comes off the ring. People in the team cannot help but plot against each other. In the end, one-on-one is safe and fair."
Jiang Yuebai nodded and said, "That's true, but in my opinion, this rule is aimed at casual cultivators. The relationship between disciples of aristocratic families and disciples of sects is relatively stable. They can choose to join forces to fight against the enemy to increase the chance of being selected."
Qi Ming continued, "I think the most important thing is that there is no need to reveal your identity, which can make it easier for the family and the sect to do many things behind their backs."
Jiang Yuebai agreed that just like her, if she had been masked and participated, after getting the three jade tokens required for the Boundary Breaking Pearl, she could give the jade tokens to others and let others claim her identity.
On the black market, some people have begun to collect broken boundary beads at high prices.
Jiang Yuebai thought about it carefully and felt that it was unnecessary. The Fengyun Society would ultimately determine the control of the earthly spirit world. Only aristocratic families and sects would be crazy to admit disciples who couldn't even pass the primary election.
Maybe it means leaving a backdoor to deal with special situations, such as Tianjiao capsizing or something.
Hong Tao still insisted on the ring, and Jiang Yuebai and Qi Ming made an appointment to meet at a place and time and prepared to leave first.
Turning around, he suddenly discovered that Zhuo Qingfeng and the others were on several stages behind them. Jiang Yuebai and Zhuo Qingfeng nodded and went to other stages without saying anything to look for their friends from the Tianyan Sect.
Zhuo Qingfeng looked at Jiang Yuebai's retreating back, hesitating for a moment, and finally fixed his gaze, clenched the sword in his hand, and continued fighting.
Jiang Yuebai looked around and found that most of the people were hiding their identities and covering their faces in the ring. Even if they were wearing sect costumes, they rarely reported their real names after going up.
After walking around the north of the city, Jiang Yuebai went to three other fighting arenas until sunset and dusk. She was surprised to find that she couldn't find any of the people she was looking for.
She didn't know if she didn't notice because of her skill in disguise, or if she happened to miss it when she went to various fighting arenas. She also paid close attention to some monks' moves and didn't see any clues, which made Jiang Yuebai feel very magical.
"Now we can only see if Qi Ming has gained anything. These guys are really good at hiding!"
In the evening, Xie Jingshan hosted a banquet for the friends of Tianyan Sect at the Jinshui Tower next to Quanhu Lake. Jiang Yuebai walked on the road, making secret plans.
"Today's methods will definitely not be useful tomorrow. How can I win ten games quickly tomorrow? I am so famous now that I will definitely be looked down upon, and I have to make people think that my reputation is in vain."
In the Jinshui Building, Xie Jingshan made a good arrangement. Those who were inedged had tea, and those who were not inedged were eating and drinking. The dishes were all high-quality spiritual vegetables and monster meat. There were no impurities, and eating them would not affect their practice.
As soon as Jiang Yuebai arrived, he looked for Lu Nazhi everywhere. Xie Jingshan shook his head at Jiang Yuebai and said that Lu Nazhi didn't come.
Except for Lu Nanzhi, all the friends from the Tianyan Sect they knew arrived.
"Senior Sister Tang, you don't know that I defended ten battles in one formation today, killing all parties and becoming invincible..." He Wangchen rambled on about his battle situation today.
Tang Weimian turned a deaf ear and asked Ge Yuchan next to him, "You just said you were not far from my ring, why didn't I notice you?"
Ge Yuchan looked at the table full of exquisite dishes and endured, "My master asked me to keep a low profile before I get the World Breaking Pearl, so I will disguise myself as a man today to fight."
Yu Qiuchi and Fang Yuxing were sitting cross-legged on the terrace drinking tea. Yun Shang covered her mouth in the corner with a sly look and was eating. Li Shenzhi pulled Song Zhiang and talked endlessly about his business experience.
There were also a few people whom Jiang Yuebai was not familiar with and who were on good terms with Xie Jingshan.
Jiang Yuebai asked Xie Jingshan about his battle today. After knowing that everything went well for him, he went to find Yun Shang and the others.
Push the cup to change the cup, raise the light and stagger.
Everyone had a good performance on the first day and all got jade medals.
After chatting with Yun Shang for a few words, Jiang Yuebai was still worried about Lu Nazhi, so he went to the lake alone to relieve his drunkenness in a bad mood.
The bright moon is like a hook, the Shanhai Tower in the center of Quanhu Lake is brightly lit, and the sound of wind chimes echoes.
Jiang Yuebai saw two foundation-building monks, a man and a woman with the Lu family emblem on their bodies, talking under the covered bridge in the distance.
Jiang Yuebai took out a skylark puppet and let it fly, letting it land on the covered bridge. He took out the viewing mirror and eavesdropped on what they were saying.
"...You really don't know how to praise me. You are about to get married. What's the use of competing for the ranking in the Fengyun Club. You still think that you are the daughter of the head of the family, but she is just the same as her mother!" The man was mean and mean.
The woman sighed, "She is pitiful too. Her uncle died unexpectedly, and her mother is crazy. She feels sad, so it is understandable that she is scorning us today. After all, she is also the daughter of the Lu family. If Fengyun Club can win the ranking , it’s also good for Lu.”
"You are still generous and tolerant, and have the demeanor of the head of the family. She looked down on us in the past, and we don't have to be too good to her in the future. I think she is just an ignorant white-eyed wolf, and sooner or later she will be unfaithful to the Lu family. "
"Don't say that. My father told me not to anger her. Fang Mingyi is not a good person. When she gets married and someone takes care of her, she will naturally restrain herself and won't hinder us in the future. Just bear with it.”
"Okay, I'll just avoid her. Go back. We have to go to the fighting field early tomorrow. By the way, all of us Lu disciples will go to the west of the city tomorrow, right?"
The two left. Jiang Yuebai was not in a hurry to take back the Skylark puppet. He was filled with anger and wanted to go up and throw the two sacks into the spring lake.
However, the attitudes of these two people also gave Jiang Yuebai a rough idea of what kind of life Lu Nanzhi was living in the Lu family now.
Jiang Yuebai knew that Lu Nanzhi must take revenge, but the question now is, was Uncle Lu's death caused by Fang or Lu?
If it was the Lu family, Jiang Yuebai simply didn't dare to think about it.
When the others walked away, Jiang Yuebai took back the skylark puppet, turned around, and saw Zhuo Qingfeng standing under the tree in the distance, dressed in dark blue clothes, with a clear and cheerful expression, looking at her with deep eyes.
Jiang Yuebai felt that Zhuo Qingfeng's gaze was a bit... strange in some way. She scratched her face and watched Zhuo Qingfeng walk up to her.
"Jiang... I have something to tell you."
Zhuo Qingfeng's cheeks were red with embarrassment, his whole body was tense, and he stared at Jiang Yuebai with burning eyes.
Jiang Yuebai stepped back, squinting his eyes suspiciously, "What do you want to do? I'm in a bad mood today, be careful I'll twist your head off."
Zhuo Qingfeng took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to say, "I like you and would like to ask you to become a Taoist couple with me."
Jiang Yuebai's eyes suddenly opened wide, and he was so panicked that he opened his mouth for a long time before shouting a word.
"You are seriously ill!"
Jiang Yuebai buried his head and ran away as if running away. He ran to the near water building and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. He secretly glanced outside. Zhuo Qingfeng was still standing motionless under the tree, seeming a little... lonely.
"Don't trample on other people's love for you."
When Xie Jingshan's voice came, Jiang Yuebai turned her head a few times and saw him standing by the window of the hall of Jinshui Building, looking at Zhuo Qingfeng outside.
"You...you heard everything? Do you have dog ears?" Jiang Yuebai scolded angrily.
Xie Jingshan turned his head and stared at Jiang Yuebai for a long time, "Your face is white but not red. It seems that you really don't like that guy. My mother said that the world is complicated, and if you can meet someone who is willing to hide his sincerity, The person you hold in front of you is extremely lucky."
"My mother also said, you can refuse if you don't like it, but please don't ignore it on purpose, and don't trample on it at will. Be grateful, speak clearly and don't delay the other party, so that such a sincere person can still be sincere in the future and will not fall into Feeling low in self-esteem, helpless or angry and resentful.”
