Two hours passed quickly. Li Changsheng stood up, calmed down, and prepared to face the challenge of the next game.
After about half a stick of incense time, the drawing ended. Li Changsheng's opponent this time was a young monk holding a sword. He had seen the young man's competition and knew that his sword contained wind attributes, and every sword dance could bring up a strong wind.
The fight between the two began, with Li Changsheng and the boy moving quickly in the ring. Their figures intertwined in the sunlight, like a vivid picture, attracting everyone's attention.
Li Changsheng used the blessing of the Escape Talisman to avoid his opponent's attacks like a ghost. He found the right opportunity, and the moment he approached his opponent, the fire talisman was in his hand, and the blazing flames instantly enveloped the young man.
The young man faced a crisis, but he did not panic. His sword flew, and a gust of wind ripped through the air and scattered the flames. His reaction speed and strength made Li Changsheng secretly praise him, and at the same time it aroused Li Changsheng's fighting spirit.
The competition gradually reached a climax, and the two men's moves became more fierce. Li Changsheng used the Ice Heart Technique to the extreme, his heart was as cold as iron, and every attack was filled with cold murderous intent. The young man also felt the changes in Li Changsheng at this time, and was slightly surprised, but it also stimulated his fighting spirit even more.
The young man swung his sword faster, each blow carrying a strong gust of wind, trying to repel Li Changsheng. However, Li Changsheng suddenly disappeared and appeared behind the young man. With a wave of the fire talisman in his hand, he instantly released a fire dragon and rushed towards the young man.
The young man was caught off guard by this sudden blow and was instantly enveloped by the fire dragon, burning with flames. Facing the crisis, the young man did not panic. He inserted the shuriken into the ground, formed a seal with his hands, and a golden circle appeared where he stood. A strong wind rose up outside the circle and enveloped the young man to resist the attack of the flames.
However, Li Changsheng did not stop. He then used three thunder talismans to attack the young man, then formed seals with his hands, and used the final move of the Bing Xin Jue - Frozen Thousand Miles!
The entire area of the arena was engulfed in ice. The flames were frozen, the wind wall was frozen, and even space seemed to be frozen. The boy's figure became blurry in the ice and snow, as if he was frozen in place.
At this moment, Li Changsheng held the Golden Thunder Sword in his hand and stabbed the boy at an indescribable speed. The tip of the sword brought an icy chill and hit the young man's chest. The young man also showed his tenacity and perseverance at this critical moment. He shook hard, shattering the ice on his body, and then swung out his sword.
The young man's sword, carrying a strong wind that could tear the air, collided with Li Changsheng's sword. Under a huge impact, the two men's positions were instantly switched, and they both fell to the ring almost at the same time.
There was silence outside the ring, as if time had stopped at this moment. The audience held their breath, waiting for the results to appear. At this time, Li Changsheng slowly got up. His body was covered with wounds, all caused by the young man's sword energy. However, his eyes shone with determination. He knew that he won this contest. His opponent failed to stand up and had lost his fighting ability.
Of course, the life of the boy on the ground was not in danger. There are specialized people who will treat his injuries and ensure his safety.
Li Changsheng took a deep breath and walked down the ring tiredly. Only then did he realize that the competition in the other arenas had already ended, and everyone was watching their competition. Most people are not optimistic about Li Changsheng and think it is impossible for him to win the game. However, Li Changsheng won. Although it was a bit embarrassing to win, it didn't matter anymore. Because Li Changsheng has entered the top ten, this is enough.
Li Zhu's ridicule sounded again, but Li Changsheng was used to his ridicule. He didn't respond and just left the ring silently. He knew that only when he was truly powerful could he shut up these people completely.
Li Changsheng was not interested in knowing who had advanced to the top ten. Anyway, his goal has been achieved, and Li Changsheng plans to admit defeat directly in the next game. Except for the top three, the rest of the rewards are similar, and Li Changsheng has no interest in competing for the top three. High-level magic weapons are not very attractive to Li Changsheng. As long as he can build the foundation, he can refine the natal magic weapon. High-level magic weapons are vulnerable to the natal magic weapon.
Li Changsheng returned to the medicine garden and reviewed the battle carefully. He made sure he didn't reveal any clues and acted very cautiously. The injuries on his body are also real, and no one will doubt that he hides his strength. So, he decided to throw in the towel in the next game on the grounds that his injury had not healed.
Thinking of this, Li Changsheng took a rejuvenation pill and began to meditate to heal his injuries.
The next day, Li Changsheng came to Yunmeng Terrace. The promoted disciples all stood in front of the stage, including Li Li, Li Zhu, Wang Feng, and Zhang Yumo. Those whose names he could remember have all advanced, but Zhang Yumo still hasn't made a move.
After drawing the lots, Li Changsheng wanted to laugh a little. He actually got Zhang Yumo, this luck is really hard to believe. Stepping onto the ring, Li Changsheng and Zhang Yumo stood opposite each other. Before the initial sound could even hit the ground, Zhang Yumo took action. However, Li Changsheng immediately said the word "admit defeat".
Zhang Yumo was stunned, because in her impression, Li Changsheng was someone who would never admit defeat. However, Li Changsheng didn't look at her and turned around and left the ring after speaking.
Zhang Yumo stood on the spot speechless. She was still preparing for a fight, but now she could only silently withdraw her posture to prepare for an attack. She was embarrassed and curious. So, she walked to Li Changsheng and asked, "Why should you admit defeat?"
Li Changsheng said calmly: "My injury has not recovered yet. I will be satisfied if I am in the top ten. I don't expect to be in the top three."
Zhang Yumo looked at Li Changsheng with suspicious eyes and said, "You don't seem like someone who will give up easily."
Li Changsheng did not want to continue on this issue, so he did not answer Zhang Yumo's question. He just watched the competition on the ring intently. Li Zhu was unlucky to meet Wang Feng. Not surprisingly, Wang Feng was still superior.
After several rounds of fierce competition, the top three were finally announced. They are Wang Feng, Zhang Yumo and Li Zhu. Li Li unfortunately ranked fifth.
After the leader Wang distributed the rewards to everyone, he announced an important news: "There will be some changes in the rules of the Wilderness Trial three years later. After the joint decision of the five sects, the previous Wilderness Trial only allowed eleven levels of Qi Condensation. Go with the disciples at the twelfth level of Qi Condensation, and you can also go to the tenth level of Qi Condensation this time."
The low-level monks in the audience were all extremely excited after hearing this. They knew that as long as they could come back alive from the wilderness trial, they would be able to obtain a foundation-building pill and a third-grade spirit-gathering pill. If a monk wants to build a foundation, these two elixirs are indispensable.
Wilderness Trial, this is a place full of mystery and legend. Only disciples at the Qi Condensation Stage can enter through the teleportation array. Once their cultivation exceeds the Qi Condensation Stage, they will be isolated by an invisible force. After so many years, no monk above the Qi Condensation stage has been able to enter it.
Headmaster Wang said some words of encouragement and then ended the sect competition, and all the monks returned to where they came from.
Li Changsheng returned to the medicine garden, sat on the grass, and recalled his past experiences. He felt that his life was like a dream. From failing the exam, to embarking on the path of cultivating immortals by chance, to now reaching the tenth level of Qi Condensation, everything was like a dream, as if it had not really happened.
