Returning to the outer courtyard, Gu Xiaotian stepped into the maple forest first. After all, he had tried to introduce the thunder and lightning energy into his coat on Mofu Peak, but all failed. He wanted to try it this time.
Sitting cross-legged, he began to adjust his breath, and carefully felt the trend of the thunder and lightning energy in his body. When he led the thunder and lightning energy to the edge of his coat, Gu Xiaotian first slowly peeled off the earth's energy from the coat, hoping to fill it with the thunder and lightning energy.
However, this thunder and lightning energy was still too powerful. When it reached the coat, the whole body began to refuse to obey, as if it was very resisting, and rushed back into the body. The rush made Gu Xiaotian's whole body feel numb, and he couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth a few times. , and the word "Sichuan" was furrowed on his brows, as if he was making a final struggle with the thunder and lightning energy.
It seems that I am still too eager to achieve success. I was too greedy just now to completely replace the original coat with the thunder and lightning energy.
This time, after Gu Xiaotian managed to stabilize the thunder and lightning energy in his body, he slightly opened the coat of his right arm and slowly guided the thunder and lightning energy in little by little.
This time, the thunder and lightning zhenqi seemed a little obedient, and he slowly started to inject it just as Gu Xiaotian intended. Seeing that it was successful, Gu Xiaotian quickly broke the zhenqi in the entire right arm, but the reaction also followed. Originally, it was not bad. As if sensing something, the clever thunder and lightning energy began to resist and rushed back into the body.
With this movement, the thunder and lightning zhenqi directly struck Gu Xiaotian's right arm with a fierce blow. The zhenqi was so powerful that it caused huge damage to Gu Xiaotian, who was born with a domineering body. Gu Xiaotian screamed in pain. Yelling.
Fortunately, no one heard it, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, Gu Xiaotian repeatedly reminded himself that he was impatient again just now. The thunder and lightning energy was too strong. Although he could control it by himself, if he wanted to truly control it, his current strength was obviously not enough.
Starting all over again, Gu Xiaotian focused his attention even more this time. Now he can feel the flow of thunder and lightning energy itself, and even if it is not controlled by him, he can still control it slightly.
Just like before, first slowly break some of the zhenqi, and the thunder and lightning zhenqi slowly fills in. Little by little, carefully watch the thunder and lightning zhenqi fill in, wait for it to stabilize, then break open the next one, and start to guide the thunder and lightning zhenqi. Go to.
The two thunder and lightning zhenqi exchanged, but they resisted again, but this time they just alternated back and forth between the arms, with no intention of returning to the body. Seeing that this move was successful, Gu Xiaotian endured the numbness and held his breath and began to adjust his breath, and also used He began to soothe his own Qi, until two strands of Qi slowly began to flow freely between his arms.
Repeatedly, the sun was still shining high, but before I knew it, the sun had already set and the moon was hanging high in the sky.
After nearly a day, Gu Xiaotian's sweat had already soaked through his body, and the expression on his face also looked a little ferocious. After all, as the thunder and lightning energy increased, the numbness became stronger and stronger, but he could only force himself. To endure, you can only grit your teeth and persevere, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain.
"call..."
With a long sigh of relief, Gu Xiaotian felt that his right arm had been filled with lightning energy. The coat that originally protected his arm had completely changed.
It's just that he still doesn't know what his strength is. He simply threw a few punches, as usual, and no thunder and lightning flashed, unlike the afterimages turned into by those moves with some thunder and lightning.
As for whether it helped or not, even Gu Xiaotian himself couldn't tell. He took Wufeng and used a set of Feiyan Zhuyue. There was indeed an electric current passing through the afterimage, but it was the same as before, with no improvement.
"I really don't know why I suffered this." Gu Xiaotian laughed at himself. After all, when he injected the thunder and lightning energy, he was shocked. Originally, he wanted to rely on the thunder and lightning energy to improve his skills, but this didn't work. There hasn't been any change. It's just a brain-heated desire to experiment. It seems that I'm still too young and naive.
However, this thunder and lightning energy can now be used for oneself, and will no longer be effective on those who attack, thus solving a future problem.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaotian was in a good mood and hurried to the cafeteria to eat a few large bowls of rice. After all, there were only steamed buns and not even pickles on Mofu Peak. The food in the outer courtyard was better.
Back in the house, the disciples in the house were all overjoyed to see Gu Xiaotian back. The reason was simple. Gu Xiaotian must have become more refined after being out for so many days.
"Brother Gu, the Ten Houses War will begin in a few days. Brothers can't wait." A disciple stepped forward and said happily. After all, their cultivation levels have become stronger without knowing it. In the past, They just idle around all day long, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Gu Xiaotian inspired them.
Seeing how high the fighting spirit of the disciples in the room was, Gu Xiaotian was also very confident at this time. After all, the lightning right arm he had trained had not been used in actual combat yet. It did not change much on weekdays. He didn't know what it would bring to him during the Ten Houses Battle. What effect will come.
The disciples in the house encouraged each other and were bound to become famous in this ten-house battle. From then on, they became famous people in Taibai outer courtyard and followed Gu Xiaotian's footsteps to reach the top of Taibai.
The rules of this ten-room battle are a bit different. After all, unlike the personal resource battle, which can be fought anytime and anywhere, there are observers watching secretly. The Ten Houses draw lots for each other, and then compete in pairs. The first place in the previous session will directly enter the finals, and the second place will enter the semi-finals. The remaining eight houses will compete in pairs until a winner is decided. The second place will compete in the semi-finals, and the winner will challenge the first place.
Therefore, this will cause a serious information gap. The first-place team has more time to observe the opponent's cultivation strength and arrange troops. Of course, there are also insidious people like Bai Jing who like to secretly It is normal to do some small tricks.
Every time there is a ten-house battle, the disciples from each house will come in and out together to prevent other houses from taking advantage of the opportunity.
In the past battles, he fought alone. This time he had to fight with a team of disciples in the room. Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a little nervous. How would he perform at that time?
He himself does not have three heads and six arms. If the opponent is too strong, he cannot protect so many disciples. He hopes that the disciples in his own house can compete with other houses.
After a few days of short rest, the day of the draw for the Ten Houses Battle came in a blink of an eye.
...
Taibai, on the martial arts training platform.
All the disciples from the eight houses were present, but the first and second place winners from the previous session only sent three or two people to observe. Naturally, they came to collect information for their own houses.
Seeing people from Gu Xiaotian's room arriving, someone stepped forward and said provocatively: "I really envy you for having a talented disciple like Gu Xiaotian. It's a pity that trash is trash after all." After saying this, he stood aside in Gu Xiaotian. The disciple behind Tian Tian.
The disciples in Gu Xiaotianwu didn't pay attention. They allowed others to laugh at them and silently held back their strength in their hearts. They were bound to make a splash in this battle. Now they are no longer what they used to be.
The person in charge of the Elders' House had already come to the stage, and each house also started to draw lots according to the previous noun rankings. When the water was placed on the spirit stone, the spirit stone flashed, and then a number slowly appeared.
The numbers were in pairs, and before it was Gu Xiaotian's turn, two groups had successfully matched, namely the fifth and sixth place, and the third and seventh place from the previous session.
Now their opponents are only four, eight, and nine. Generally speaking, they are still lucky, avoiding stronger opponents, as long as they don't draw fourth place.
The number displayed by the fourth place was "3". The fourth house director who had drawn lots seemed to be confident and gestured to Gu Xiaotian. No matter how strong Gu Xiaotian is, the ten-house war is not a one-man battle after all. .
Then the eighth and ninth places were drawn, and they were paired up. Gu Xiaotianwu, who was originally ranked tenth, automatically formed a rival with the fourth place in the previous session.
The disciples in the fourth place cheered. It can be said that this year is really promising. They can win easily without revealing too much strength.
On the other hand, the disciples in Gu Xiaotian's house didn't care at all. In the eyes of outsiders, they didn't need to care. They couldn't beat him anyway. No matter how strong Gu Xiaotian was, the Ten Houses War was a win.
The Shiwu battle is divided into individual battles and team battles. There are four individual battles and one team battle. There are 5 small games in total. The first to win three games will win. Gu Xiaotian is certainly strong, but losing this point is not enough. It's lost. As long as he wins three of the remaining four games, it will be extremely easy. In the personal battle, Gu Xiaotian can only play one game. In the remaining three games, his side will be crushed in all directions. .
The battle started immediately after a short break, and the first round was between the fourth and tenth place.
...
In the first individual battle, Gu Xiaotian jumped directly onto the ring, hoping to get a good start for his team, and his fellow disciples in the audience also cheered.
As for the fourth person, the head of the house laughed, pointed at a random person, and whispered something in his ear. The man originally resisted, but after hearing what the head of the house told him, he Instead, he put on a smile.
On the stage, the person in charge saw the fourth disciple sent by Nawu slowly walk to the stage and immediately announced the start.
Gu Xiaotian didn't make any more moves, and just attacked the disciple straight away.
The next second, the disciple immediately shouted: "Stop!"
Gu Xiaotian was confused for a moment, but still stopped his fist in mid-air.
The disciple turned around and said to the referee with a smile: "I admit defeat, I admit defeat."
Give up? !
It's okay to admit defeat, but it's too unambitious to admit defeat without even fighting. However, there are still smart people, and many people have already realized that this is Tian Ji's horse racing.
The disciple who appeared this time was not high in cultivation and was ranked last in the fourth house. If he really fought with Gu Xiaotian, he would naturally end up defeated.
But this fourth place is also the fourth place last year. In terms of overall strength, it is naturally higher than the tenth place. It's just different this year. There is one more factor, and that is Gu Xiaotian.
No matter how strong Gu Xiaotian is, one person is not allowed to fight multiple times in individual battles. It is very difficult to defeat Gu Xiaotian anyway. After all, this is the person who defeated Sun Yunlong, who is ranked fifth in the outer courtyard.
Looking back at the disciple who had admitted defeat, he walked down the ring step by step with a smile, and returned to his queue as if he had completed some glorious mission.
On the stage, Gu Xiaotian was left with a depressed look on his face. He originally wanted to test his right arm wrapped in thunder and lightning energy through today's battle, but it seemed that he was still looking for an opportunity.
The second round of competition also started, and the fourth house leader personally applied for the certificate. This person was nicknamed Lao Si because he had been ranked fourth in the ten-house competition many times, so he also deserved this title.
Gu Xiaotian briefly communicated with the disciple who was about to play. Of course, he did not have any information about his opponent, so he could only say some words of calmness or encouragement.
The disciple who came on stage was the one who had already broken through the realm before. He naturally knew about Lao Si, but at this time, he was full of confidence and Lao Si would not take him seriously at all.
