The next day was definitely a very important day for the Cheng family and the lower sects of the Cheng family.
Especially for those disciples who will compete in the upcoming competition, this is a very exciting moment.
In fact, compared to the first stage of preliminary screening held by the previous lower sects and even the Cheng family's main sect, strictly speaking, it is not a real competition.
After all, that was just the first elimination within his sect.
If they are not strong enough, they will have no chance to come to Cheng's house to participate in the later competition.
And they are very proud to be able to continue the competition, whether they are the original sect of the Cheng family or the subordinate sect of the Cheng family.
Since the Cheng family is holding the competition, the leaders of these lower sects cannot just randomly select a few people, so the sect leader or head of each sect also appeared at the Cheng family.
After all, if even the head of the Cheng family has to show up for a major event, how can these sect leaders not show up? Doesn’t that look down on the Cheng family too much?
With their current status and strength, they don't dare to be so arrogant.
Although it is now held every two years, every time he comes to the Cheng family to participate in the second stage of the competition, the chief elder of the Cheng family will stand up and say some words of encouragement to everyone to guide and stimulate everyone before the competition. achieve better results.
However, this year's competition was a little different from previous years because Cheng Yu was present at the Cheng family competition this time.
After all, Cheng Yu has not shown up for a long time over the years. After so many competitions, they have not met the head of the Cheng family.
So this time when they saw the head of the Cheng family standing in front of everyone, the disciples below, whether they were disciples of the Cheng family or other disciples of the lower sect, were all very excited.
It's okay for the disciples of the Cheng family. After all, they have always lived in the Cheng family, even though they have never seen the head of the family in these years.
But now that the head of the house has left seclusion, as long as the head of the house is not very busy, basically everyone has the opportunity to see him.
But it was rare for these lower sect disciples to see the head of the Cheng family.
In fact, if Cheng Yu was just an ordinary head of the family, everyone would not be so expecting and excited.
The most important thing is that Cheng Yu is actually not only the spiritual support of the disciples of the Cheng family, but in the eyes of these subordinate sects, they are also the power of the Cheng family. Cheng Yu is also their spiritual support and the goal of their continuous efforts in cultivation.
Because Cheng Yu's achievements have long been spread throughout the entire Cheng family's sphere of influence, and even outside the Cheng family's sphere of influence, there are some legends about Cheng Yu.
Such a character who seems to only live in legends, now they can really see him standing in front of everyone, how can everyone not be excited?
After all, after disappearing for so many years, there are many newly promoted disciples in those lower sects, and they have passed the first round of competitions, so those who came here to participate in the competition today have not even met the head of the Cheng family before.
"Is this the head of the Cheng family? So young?"
"Yeah, I didn't expect that we could see him so close. It's so exciting."
Although these people who have never met the head of the Cheng family have heard from others that the head of the Cheng family is very young, when they see with their own eyes that the young man in front of them is such a huge head of the Cheng family, their hearts It was still difficult to conceal the excitement in my heart.
In the legends they knew, Cheng Yu was a man close to a god.
Today they can finally see their idol so close, how can they not be excited?
"The Cheng family has always selected outstanding disciples in competitions. As long as I and the sect agree, I can directly enter the Cheng family and become a disciple of the Cheng family.
If you can be favored by the Cheng family and become a disciple of the Cheng family, then it will be normal for you to want to see the head of the Cheng family in the future! "Those who had met the Cheng family for a long time couldn't help but smile when they saw these people as if they had seen Cheng Yu for the first time.
"But as far as I know, the Cheng family doesn't select many disciples in the competition. So I think I may not have such a good opportunity!" These new disciples have obviously already inquired about this matter. , although in their hearts they really hope that they can enter the Cheng family.
But they also know how powerful they are. If they want to be favored by the Cheng family, they probably have to be among the top ten in each group.
Compared with the small competition held by the Cheng family, the Cheng family's grand competition was not so detailed.
In the Cheng family's small competition, the Cheng family competes in each major realm, which means that there is no competition across major realms, and every contestant is within the same major realm.
Therefore, this situation is at best a perfect match between the early stage and the late stage of a realm.
If you are really a genius, it is still possible to fight across small realms like this, but if you want to defeat the Dzogchen in the early stage, there are too few such geniuses.
Even in the main sect of the Cheng family, there is currently no such disciple, so those in the late stage of Dzogchen at the same level must have a huge advantage in the small competition.
Just like Bai Zhengqi, he is a genius who can fight across realms. But he can only defeat the mid-term and a few late-stage players in the early stage.
For example, last year's Xiaobi, although he defeated all opponents in the middle stage of Mahayana, as well as some opponents in the late stage of Mahayana, he was finally defeated by an opponent in the late stage of Mahayana.
Despite this, Bai Zhengqi can definitely be regarded as a rare genius in the Cheng family.
After all, there is no genius in the Cheng family who can cross a complete realm or even beyond like Cheng Yu.
For this big competition, the difficulty is even more difficult than the Cheng family's small competition.
Because the most basic requirement for the second round of the competition is the Golden Elixir stage, which means that in the first screening, only the Golden Elixir stage has the chance to advance to the second round.
Although people with cultivation levels below the Golden Core stage can also sign up, it is simply impossible to defeat the Golden Core stage with the Foundation Building stage or even the Qi and Body training stages.
After all, the Cheng family's competition is ultimately a competition between the Cheng family and the Lower Sect, or the selection of talents.
For disciples below the Golden Core stage, it obviously does not have much value on such occasions.
Moreover, in the world of cultivation, disciples who have not reached the golden elixir stage cannot be considered to have truly entered the path of immortality.
Maybe these people won't even be able to form elixirs in the future, so it really doesn't make sense to select these people and compete on such an important occasion with so many experts watching.
In addition, although the minimum entry requirement for the competition is the Golden Core stage, the rules of the competition are not competitions between people in the same realm.
The Cheng family has already divided them into groups. The Golden Elixir stage and Nascent Soul stage are one group, the distraction stage and the integration stage are one group, and the final Mahayana stage is a separate group.
As for the Tribulation Period, it is impossible to participate in such a big competition.
The goal of the Tribulation Period is to complete the Great Path as soon as possible and ascend to the immortal world. Moreover, such a person is essentially a person of great power and status in the sect.
How could they appear on such a competition stage for others to appreciate?
So just from the Cheng family's grouping situation, we know that the difficulty of the big competition is much more difficult than that of the small competition.
Although it seems that this arrangement is obviously unfair to people of a lower level, the Cheng family's competition is very special. It is to select outstanding talents, even geniuses, for the Cheng family.
Therefore, it is really difficult to achieve excellent results in such a big competition.
This is why they feel that they cannot be favored by the Cheng family. How can they defeat a strong man who is much higher than themselves in strength and realm?
"Don't be so frustrated yet, you may not know that the Cheng family has always made their own decision to choose their disciples.
So it doesn’t matter whether you get into the top ten in the same group, as long as you are favored by the Cheng family, even if you don’t get into the top ten, they will still let you into the Cheng family! "Someone in the crowd said softly.
"Is there such a thing? Why is this? Doesn't the Cheng family want to find the most powerful people as their disciples? Why do they choose people who are not outstanding instead?" Although those people were a little surprised, they were still confused. Very confused.
After all, this is not logical. Isn't the Cheng family holding such a competition just to select talents? Especially selecting the best disciples from each sect.
Why choose a disciple who is not outstanding? It’s really hard for them to figure it out!
"I don't know about this. If I knew, I would have entered the Cheng family long ago!" When the man mentioned this, his face was full of sadness and regret.
Because he has participated in several Cheng family competitions, and even broke into the top ten in several of them. The best one was fifth place.
But even so, he was still not selected by the Cheng family after all.
As for the reason for this, he really didn't understand it.
"So there's no point in breaking into the top ten?"
"It can't be said that it's useless. Anyway, the Cheng family doesn't select many people from the top ten in every contest.
But judging from my many years of experience, judging from the situation of those who entered the top ten and were selected by the Cheng family, maybe there is no correlation between whether they entered the top ten or not. Maybe the Cheng family is simply I took a fancy to him.
Even if they are not in the top ten, they may still be selected by the Cheng family! "The man said helplessly.
"This is really strange. The competition does not depend on results but looks." These newcomers were really confused.
"Who knows? This is probably why the Cheng family grouped two people of great realm into one group, because the ranking is not important at all."
"So doesn't it mean that everyone is likely to be selected by the Cheng family?" The newlyweds were immediately filled with joy.
"Then it depends on whether you have this fate or not." Although this man has failed many times, he still has not given up.
After all, even if you are not selected as a disciple by the Cheng family, if you can enter the top ten in the same group, the reward will still be very generous. Even if it is a bit regretful, it is not a loss!
