After returning to the other garden, Shui Hanxi checked the physical condition of Shui Qingwen and Shui Yunxun, and she found that the former was too consumed, so she asked Shui Ling Yingyue to take her to pranayama first.

Then, Shui Hanxi led Shui Yunxun to his room, and placed a ban around him, carefully asking the other party about the situation in the woods.

Facing the cold tide alone, Shui Yun Kaoru told a scene in the woods, and summoned a zombie puppet, but concealed Lu Yingfeng's matter, after all, this matter is very important, and the less one person knows, the more safe it is.

After listening to Shui Yunxun's story, Shui Hanxi touched the puppet again, she felt very happy, after all, it is very difficult to refine a puppet, even with the power of the entire Water Moon Pavilion, I am afraid that it will not be able to refine one.

However, unexpectedly, the three of them obtained eighteen puppets in the woods, and they were also very rare zombie puppets, this kind of opportunity is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After a while, Shui Hanxi asked Shui Yunxun to put away the zombie puppet and said, "Xiao Xun, have you told Xiaohu to keep his mouth shut? If the people of the Holy Shield Sect know about this, they will definitely not give up, and they will think of a way to get these eighteen puppets back no matter what." ”

Shui Yunxun nodded and said, "Old Pavilion Master, don't worry, Senior Sister Qing and I have told him." The only thing I'm worried about is that although Brother Xiaohu is upright and affectionate, he just likes to show off and is a little greedy, which will have an impact on his future cultivation. ”

Hearing this, Shui Hanxi sighed lightly: "This can't be all blamed on Xiaohu, as the saying goes, what kind of environment creates what kind of people." Xiaohu lost his parents at the age of ten and came to the Holy Shield Sect alone, he must have been exposed to many injustices before he became what he is today. ”

Shui Yunxun hesitated for a moment, approached Shui Hanxi, and pleaded: "Old Pavilion Master, I want to ask you for one thing......

Gently holding Shui Yunxun's little hand, Shui Hanxi smiled and said: "Xiao Xun, you joined Shuiyue Pavilion at the age of ten, and you have been carefully cultivated by several ancestors. ”

Shui Yunxun was stunned for a moment, then bowed deeply, and said respectfully: "The disciple will never dare! I was originally an orphan, but I was pitied by several masters and ancestors, and I cultivated it wholeheartedly, and I will take the revitalization of Shuiyue Pavilion as my own responsibility in the future!"

Nodding slightly, Shui Hanxi smiled: "I am very relieved and happy that you can think so." What you just said, do you want me to bring Lu Xiaohu back to the Water Moon Pavilion?"

Shui Yunxun was surprised: "Old Pavilion Master, how do you know that what I asked for is this?"

Stroking Shui Yunxun's hair, Shui Hanxi said softly: "You kid has been comparing your heart to her heart since she was a child, and when you see Lu Xiaohu become what she is now, you naturally can't bear it." However, he is now worshipping Elder Gulin as his teacher, and he is also a disciple of the top ten on the Heavenly Shield List, even if I have the heart to do it, the Holy Shield Sect will not let him go. ”

Shui Yunxun said in a deep voice: "I'm worried that Brother Xiaohu will fall deeper and deeper in the long run, and one day he will be swayed by vanity and greed, and he will fall into a place of no return." ”

"Regarding Xiaohu, I will find a way, maybe Elder Ying can say something for us. It's not too early now, you go and rest, tomorrow you have to break into the secret realm, this will be a tough battle. Patting Shui Yunxun's palm, Shui Hanxi said softly.

Shui Yun Xun answered, and then walked out of the room quickly, she wanted to use this night's time to study the secret technique left by Lu Yingfeng first, maybe it could help you break through tomorrow.

As for Lu Xiaohu, on the way back to the other garden with Shui Hanxi and the others, he had been picked up by Elder Gulin, and it seemed that he had something important to discuss.

This night, outside the shadow forest was particularly lively, Ying Ruming and Gu Xianyang argued for a long time, and did not reach an agreement on Cui Shihao's slander of Shui Yunxun and others, and finally the two sides broke up unhappily.

After that, the experts searched carefully in the Shadow Forest several times, and apart from some traces of fighting, they did not find anything unusual.

Since there is still a secret realm to break through tomorrow, many of the masters present want to guard the secret realm to prevent wanton killing among disciples, and they have left the Shadow Forest one after another not long after.

This time, in order to achieve good results in the Shield Sect Competition a year later, the way the Holy Shield Sect selects its disciples can be described as ingenious and very strict.

In the Holy Shield Sect, for the sake of fair selection, all disciples of the Heavenly Shield List and the Earth Shield List, as well as the top 20 disciples of the Xuan Shield List, can sign up to participate.

In addition to the disciples of the Inner Sect, Fengyang City, Longyang City, Huyang City, and Xuanyang City each recommended five disciples, and the other cities and forces were personally selected by the elders sent by the Holy Shield Sect.

As a result, as many as 300 disciples participated in the preliminary round, the largest number ever recorded.

These disciples are not weak in cultivation, and they have to shoulder the heavy burden of revitalizing the Holy Shield Sect in the future, which can be described as a heavy responsibility, and fighting alone in the traditional sense is not enough to assess their comprehensive strength.

After all, no matter how strong a person's strength is, he can't control the rise and fall of the sect, only teamwork and mutual help can make the sect's inheritance endure.

For this reason, after some deliberation, the elders decided to use the Fog Hidden Realm in Qimen Dunjia to select suitable disciples, and finally conduct a group draw to face each other.

The Fog Hidden Realm is a circular valley, the valley is shrouded in fog all the year round, its diameter is about 600 li, the terrain is very complex, there are snow peaks about 1,000 zhang high, there are large lakes 100 zhang deep, as well as deep ravines, hills, plains, forests, deserts and swamps and so on.

It is rumored that the Fog Hidden Realm evolved from Qimen Dunjia, and the entire valley is divided into two layers, inside and outside, and the difficulty of the secret realm can be adjusted according to needs to conjure up different grades of demon beasts, alien spirits, evil spirits, and humanoids.

After a night, the foggy hidden mountain in the early morning, under the reflection of the morning light, looks particularly majestic and majestic, like a giant standing on the top of the sky, standing between the mountains.

At the beginning of the hour, when Shui Hanxi and the others came to Wuyin Mountain, there were already crowds of people outside the valley, and it seemed that many forces were coming in the starry night, one was familiar with the surrounding environment, and the other was also looking for suitable allies.

According to the process of the preliminary round, three hundred disciples will enter the secret realm from different entrances, and they will first break through the outer space alone, limited to eight hours, and will be ranked according to the number of points obtained.

Before the start of the second stage, the three hundred disciples will have one chance to choose an alliance, form a team with a maximum of ten people, and enter the inner space for a ten-day breakthrough and competition.

In the end, the elders presiding over the preliminary round will select the thirty-six disciples with the highest scores from the second stage of the duel and enter the third round of group duels.

It can be seen that the first stage is the embodiment of individual ability, and the second stage highlights the importance of teamwork, which includes overall coordination, sacrifice, and response to various emergencies.

Outside the valley, Shui Hanxi and the others stood on a small slope, looking at the dense figures around them, they felt a little dazed, after all, these participating disciples, all of them are not weak in cultivation, once they enter the second stage, it will definitely be a dragon fight.

Shui Qingwen said in a deep voice: "It would be good if Senior Brother Lin Song was here, with his wisdom and strength, plus me and Xiao Xun, Xiao Hu, and the two of the Moon God Temple, even Jiang Xiaohan and Lu Tianyu would not be afraid!"

Shui Yunxun said: "Old Pavilion Master, Brother Song still hasn't come out of the heart of Cuizhu?"

After hesitating for a while, Shui Hanxi said softly: "Qingwu, Xiaoxun, you must have confidence in yourself, as the saying goes, it is better to ask for others than for yourself, and don't pin your future on others." Lin Song has his own mission and opportunities, and maybe when you break through, he is also working hard to cultivate and improve. ”

Shui Lingyingyue nodded and said, "Qingwu, Xiao Xun, don't expose your strength too much in the first stage, just be decent." The two of you plus Xiaohu, Feng Ruxiao and Shen Chenchao, although they are not as good as Jiang Xiaohan and them, they are not weak, the only thing I am worried about is that Gu Xianyang's subordinates will secretly make stumbling blocks. ”

"Aunt Yingyue, don't worry, I will protect Senior Sister Qingwu and Sister Xiaoxun, if those people dare to play tricks, my fist will not let them go!" A domineering voice suddenly came from behind.

Everyone turned around and saw Lu Xiaohu walking over quickly, followed by two strong young men.

Shui Lingyingyue was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "Xiaohu, who are the two behind you?"

Lu Xiaohu said with a smile: "Auntie, they are all my senior brothers, this one is called Yang Pan, and this one is called Lin Zhen, both of them are five-fold shield generals, and their strength is very strong. After I went back last night, they came to me overnight and wanted to join our team, I wonder if you would like to?"

Glancing at Shui Hanxi, Shui Lingyingyue saw that he nodded slightly, turned her eyes, and said with a smile: "Since we are Xiaohu's senior brother, we welcome it very much, with your joining, our team will be able to achieve good results." ”

Subsequently, at the signal of Shui Lingyingyue, Shui Qingwen and Shui Yunxun approached Lu Xiaohu and the other three, and the five participating disciples gathered together to get acquainted with each other carefully.

A moment later, Mu Zhiqing and Murong Yanxi led Feng Ruxiao and Shen Chenchao to the vicinity, they looked around in the crowd, and soon found Shui Hanxi and the others.

Just like the cold tide of water, Mu Zhiqing's face has not changed much in the past three years, and she is still beautiful and charming.

However, unlike the cold and glamorous temperament of the water and the tide, Mu Zhiqing's whole body is full of vitality, and it seems that in the past three years, her attainments in the wood system have become more sophisticated.

As for Murong Yanxi, in the past three years, her appearance has become more handsome, and her eyebrows reveal a unique temperament, which can be said to complement each other with delicate and heroic posture.

After some greetings, Murong Yanxi also asked the two disciples to join Shui Qingwen and the others, one to get acquainted with each other, and the other to discuss the strategy of the second stage.

Lu Xiaohu didn't know much about Feng Ruxiao and Shen Chenchao, but when he heard that the former had defeated Shui Qingchao, and saw that the other party was very arrogant, he was unhappy in his heart.

Fortunately, Shui Yunxun was thoughtful, and she noticed this, so she pulled Lu Xiaohu aside and carefully analyzed the situation with him, hoping that the other party would focus on the overall situation.

After Shui Yunxun's mention, Lu Xiaohu was relieved, and now the seven of them can only compete with those strong teams by working together.

Although the first stage has not yet begun, most of the closely related forces like the Water Moon Pavilion and the Moon God Temple have secretly formed alliances, especially those senior brothers of the same sect, who have long been together and run in with each other.

In addition to Lu Xiaohu, the top ten masters on the Tiandun list all have their own arrangements, and there are many super strong teams.

According to reliable sources, Jiang Xiaohan, who ranked first on the Tiandun list, Lan Sixin, who ranked third, Gu Shuhan, who ranked sixth, and Quan Wei, who ranked ninth, these four people have formed a super team, and the other six people are also famous and extremely powerful.

In addition, Lu Tianyu, who ranked second, Yue Haoling, who ranked fourth, and Yan Lei, who ranked fifth, also led seven masters in the top 30 of the Tiandun List to form a team, wanting to compete with Jiang Xiaohan's team.

As for the other teams, there is no shortage of masters, so it can be seen that the situation of Shui Qingwen and others is not optimistic.

However, Shui Qingwen's team has two huge advantages that are not known, that is, the combat power of Shui Yunxun and Lu Xiaohu.

Shui Yun Xun is a cultivator of the three spiritual refining weapons, although she has not yet cultivated the artifact, but with the spiritual power of the refiner and the strange wood spiritual skills, her combat power is very rebellious.

Lu Xiaohu's combat power is also very domineering, especially in the Shadow Forest, after he turned into a golden man, his attack power and defense power suddenly increased by several levels.

In addition, Shui Qingwen is a dual cultivator of the instrument spirit, plus Feng Ruxiao, whose combat power is comparable to it, as well as the two senior brothers Lu Xiaohu, and Shen Chenchao, their team is not powerless.

Not far away, Murong Yanxi looked at Shui Qingwen and the other seven people, and said in a low voice: "What's the matter, Lin Song still hasn't had time to come over to participate in the preliminaries?"

Shui Lingyingyue sighed lightly: "He is in some trouble now, he can't rush over, it doesn't matter if he participates or not, I just hope that he is safe and sound." ”

Subsequently, Shui Ling Yingyue approached Murong Yanxi, and in his ear, he gave a general description of Lin Song's situation.

At this moment, a majestic voice sounded over the valley, and the noise around it suddenly stopped, and everyone looked up the valley.
