Zhao Yisu was obsessed with picking up money at the bottom of the sea and temporarily forgot about the Tianxing Competition.
At the same time, Yanyunzhou was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder.
After more than three months of arena competition, players from all levels have appeared who have directly entered the finals after winning streaks. The competition has entered an increasingly fierce stage, and the chips and odds for betting are getting higher and higher every day.
This day's game is particularly attractive because it is the first game of the fifth-grade monks' wheel battle.
The first day of the wheel battle ushered in a duel between two masters: Gu Qianning and Qiu Yuebai, both female cultivators of the fifth level of Dzogchen.
Spectators who were waiting to watch the match and placed bets lined up one day in advance. The two arenas had already been crowded with water. Before the match started, everyone was whispering to each other about the match.
——"Gu Qianning took the initiative to abandon the game, but Qiu Yuebai is a pity. She was injured and missed a game because Linglong Pavilion was attacked by the camp, and she went back to save people. She was caught in a wheel battle."
——"These two people are said to be in a round-robin battle, but one is the eldest disciple of Master Fuxue of Suihan Palace, and the other is the second disciple of Master Qingyi of Linglong Pavilion. They both studied under the seventh-level overhaul, and they will definitely be able to play the quality of the finals. I heard that Fu Master Xue and Master Qingyi loved to compete and challenge each other when they were young, and each other won and lost, so this is really interesting!"
——"Only one of the two is destined to enter the finals. No matter who loses, it will be a pity."
——"Hey, they are not the only ones in the fifth rank who are pitiful?"
At this point, the man lowered his voice: "The whereabouts of Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu are still unknown. Due to their many absences, they have automatically entered the wheel battle. If they don't come back, they can only be considered defeated. Fuxishan lost two fifth-grade generals. , Mianxian Tower is getting dull every day, and I haven’t had a smiling face in the past few months.”
The onlookers on the side disagreed with this statement: "On the fifth-grade arena the day before yesterday, Ren Jinghua fought against Bai Zhongxiao, a peak fifth-grade monk of the Kunlun sect. He also fought an earth-shattering battle and narrowly defeated him. With Ren Jinghua here, Fu Xishan still couldn't. Are you afraid that you will miss the top three places in the fifth grade?"
These words fell into the ears of Ren Jinghua, who was also waiting to watch the battle not far away.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly inwardly.
If Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu hadn't disappeared at the same time, and Senior Brother Bailiqin unexpectedly lost, he wouldn't have fought so hard to snatch a spot in the finals from Bai Zhongxiao.
He is good at using heavy swords, so he will easily suffer a loss against Bai Zhongxiao, a dexterous water monk. Moreover, Bai Zhongxiao is a direct descendant of a great family of the Kunlun sect, and his skills are passed down from his family, making them unpredictable.
To make matters worse, before Ren Jinghua entered the ring to fight Bai Zhongxiao, he had just returned from a demon-slaying activity in the Southern Continent and suffered some internal injuries.
Although he narrowly won the match under Bai Zhongxiao, Linghai had already suffered more injuries, which would definitely affect his performance in the finals.
But what can be done? It’s not like Fuxishan can’t even secure a fifth-grade spot, right?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look in the direction of the West Sea again.
In the morning, I heard the disciples discussing that Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu's fates were showing signs of recovery.
Although the third-grade disciple's stargazing skills were questionable, he still had a glimmer of hope - what if they arrived before the wheel battle ended?
Thinking back to Jiang Yunchen's Thunder Dragon Golden Whip and Zhao Yisu's Full Moon Scimitar in Penglai Pavilion Lingyun Hall, Ren Jinghua was extremely convinced that as long as one of these two people went up, they could win the fifth rank title for Fuxi Mountain.
He had hope, but he felt extremely slim. After all, he had participated in many people-hunting teams in Xihai, but he really couldn't find any clues.
The chatter among the onlookers continued. One said it was a pity that Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu were so good. The other kept retorting and gave an example:
"Don't take Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu too seriously. Which generation in our world of cultivating immortals is not full of talented people? The most amazing ones are Kan Fengqing. He is a first-class Chaos Spiritual Root cultivator from Tianjian Sect in a thousand years. He is directly I became a disciple of Master Tingyun, and he was the one who broke many records back then. But what happened? He was willing to become a demon..."
"Fart! Don't talk nonsense if there is no basis!" Dongfang Yu suppressed the anger in his eyes: "Since you are a proud man of heaven and enjoy top-notch cultivation resources in Tianjian Sect, how can you be willing to become a demon?!"
The man wanted to refute, but was quickly pulled away by his companions: "Don't get involved! He is Dongfang Yu from the Tianjian Sect. I heard that he made a big fuss with the sect in order to get back Kan Fengqing's bones. It's not good. Come on, let’s go, let’s go…”
Seeing that they were about to leave, Dongfang Yu wanted to catch up and argue, but was held down by Ren Jinghua behind him.
Seeing Ren Jinghua shaking his head at him, Dongfang Yu could only endure the anger and clenched his fists sadly.
He cultivated a gentleman's sword and would never get angry easily. If those words hadn't hurt his heart, he wouldn't have swore.
Ren Jinghua: "The most unstoppable thing is Youyou Zhongkou. If you want to change, you can only find out the forces behind the camp as soon as possible. The truth will be revealed to the world sooner or later."
After saying that, he sighed softly.
The Kan Fengqing they mentioned was the sixth-grade demon cultivator who fought with Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu in the Niling Canyon.
After the war, the Tianxing Alliance collected the bones of this sixth-grade demon cultivator. After investigation, it was discovered that this person was a disciple of the Tianjian Sect, Kan Fengqing, before he fell into the devil.
As those people discussed, Kan Fengqing was originally a genius monk with the Chaos Spiritual Root of Tianjian Sect, and Ren Jinghua had done several missions with him when he was in the fifth rank, so the two of them had some friendship. It can be said that Kan Fengqing is one of Ren Jinghua's few close friends.
Different from the usually low-key and cautious Ren Jinghua, Kan Fengqing was a very paternalistic senior who cared very much for his junior brothers and sisters and was known for his good temper. For Dongfang Yu who had just entered Tianjian Sect at that time, Kan Fengqing was The senior who led him to the beginning and was both a teacher and a friend.
Such a good person actually has a dilemma, that is, he has been stuck in the fifth stage of Dzogchen and has been unable to break through for nearly a thousand years.
The fifth-level monks who were at the same time as him, those who were not as talented as him were promoted to the sixth-level, and those who practiced hundreds of years behind him, such as Ren Jinghua, also caught up with his progress early. But Kan Fengqing, the proud man of heaven, just stopped at cultivation, which became a major concern for the Tianjian Sect.
Decades ago, Kan Fengqing disappeared while performing a fifth-level training mission.
The Tianjian Sect sent people to search everywhere but to no avail. To this day, members of the sect often mention this senior brother who has the best character and cultivation.
But none of them expected that the sixth-grade demon cultivator who suddenly appeared outside Yanyun Continent turned out to be Kan Fengqing.
How could a fifth-level, proud man of heaven become possessed by a demon, become a sixth-level demon cultivator, and become cruel and cruel beyond all recognition? No one could explain what exactly happened.
Many monks hold a view that Kan Fengqing cannot break through the fifth level. In order to overcome the bottleneck period, they are willing to fall into the devil and seek shortcuts...
Passers-by didn't actually care about the truth. They were more willing to listen to the story of the genius's fall, so they spread it from word to mouth.
Kan Fengqing's diligent and hard-working past, the torment and ups and downs of being stuck in the bottleneck period, the accidental disappearance and tragic death of a demon... It is heartbreaking and painful for relatives and friends, but for them, it is just three years ago. The two laughed and talked.
As Jiang Yunchen said, this world is not cruel to Qianxing alone.
Whether you are a proud man of heaven, have scarce spiritual roots, or you are a loser starting out and leaping over the dragon gate, in the end you will be fiddled with by the big hand of fate, and you will go to your destination.
