In addition to some new disciples, many old disciples also bowed their hands to greet Zhao Jian. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, this Zhao Jian did not squint, and walked straight over, with a kind of indifference that penetrated deep into the bone marrow on his elegant face, and he did not have the slightest intention of stopping to talk to people.

Those new disciples were okay, and when they looked at Zhao Jian, most of them were fiery and longing, but the old disciples were very dissatisfied with his attitude.

In addition, there were many old disciples who showed a bit of vigilance in their eyes when they looked at him, while some of them looked quite disdainful, and some even couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks, claiming that if they met a real high-ranking disciple, they would definitely be beaten all over the ground looking for teeth.

Zhao Jian walked past those people, ignoring these gossips.

Just when Shi Mu's eyes turned to look at Zhao Jian, this person suddenly turned his head and looked at him, and the eyes of the two looked straight together.

Zhao Jian's glance made Shi Mu feel a pang in his heart, and the uneasy feeling of unease ten years ago hit his heart again.

However, Zhao Jian's gaze only flickered over Shi Mu's body, and swept towards other places, making Shi Mu a little confused for a while, did the other party really notice him?

"Hehe, I haven't seen you for ten years, Brother Shi's skills have improved a lot!" At this moment, Qing Changtian didn't know where to come out, standing beside Shi Mu and shouting.

"Hehe, how can you compare with Brother Qing, this time the big competition depends on you to shine. Shi Mu said

Qing Changtian laughed, and greeted several new disciples nearby, such as Ma Long, Ziling, and so on, and after chatting a few words casually, he shook his body again and disappeared.

"Silence!"

At this moment, Shi Mu heard a low shout in the air.

It was not a loud voice, but it was full of majesty, and it reached the ears of everyone present very clearly.

Shi Mu heard it familiarly, and when he looked up, he saw that on the tall cyan stone tablet, a cyan vortex appeared at some point, and then an old man in a green robe walked out of it.

I saw that the man's beard was gray, his eyebrows were lowered, and his complexion was as ruddy as a child, but it was the sad elder who had presided over the trial of Tianshui and Qingshan.

At this moment, the crowd, which was still a little noisy, suddenly quieted down, and everyone's eyes were attracted by it.

"Fellow disciples, it has been a full ten years since the last Centennial Disciple Examination. People often say that a sword is sharpened in ten years, and today is the time for you to wait for the sword to be unsheathed and compete for the length of the sword!

"Yes!"

The scene, which was already quiet, suddenly boiled in the few words of the Elder of the Sorrowful Bone, and the fighting passion of the disciples was suddenly ignited.

According to the usual practice, the old man began to announce the rules of this big competition. Elder Sorrowful Bone swept his gaze from the room, nodded with satisfaction, and said.

Shi Mu was about to concentrate on listening, when suddenly a strange feeling of being watched by someone surged in his heart.

He looked around, and out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Lu Jingzheng, who was dressed in a green robe, standing not far away, looking at him with malicious intent.

Beside him, there was a man with a half-black, half-white yin and yang face, but it was Liao Yong.

The two of them glanced at Shi Mu from time to time, and then turned back to talk, with a faint look of resentment in their eyes.

Shi Mu saw it in his eyes, but he just smiled faintly and moved his gaze back.

“...... There are three rounds in total. The first round is the knockout round, which is participated by 940 lower disciples and 32 temporary upper disciples, and the order of participation and the two sides are determined by drawing lots, and the final ranking is determined, and the last one hundred and eight disciples will be directly canceled as Qinglan disciples and expelled from the Holy Land. Elder Grief said.

As soon as these words came out, many people suddenly showed nervousness on their faces, especially some new disciples who had just started ten years ago.

"With so many people in the race, it looks like it's going to be a tough battle. Malone said with some concern.

"Sister, don't worry too much, after all, there are thousands of people participating, and the elimination rate is only one-tenth, so it won't be so unlucky. Brother Shi, you said yes?" Ziling said with a smile.

"According to this format, as long as you win the first game, you can avoid elimination. Shi Mu said.

After hearing this, Ma Long nodded with a little relief.

“...... The second round is a competition competition, and the top 108 disciples determined in the elimination round will be qualified to challenge the original 108 high-ranking disciples, and the winner can replace them and become the new high-ranking disciples, but each person only has one chance. Elder Grief paused for a moment and continued.

Seeing that the attention of the Ma Long sisters and brothers was attracted by the Elder Sorrowful Bone, Shi Mu leaned towards Ziling's side and asked in a low voice:

"Are you Ziling now?" or Zihe?"

The little girl with pigtails just winked at her and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Shi Mu was helpless for a while, so he had to turn his gaze back to the Elder of the Sorrowful Bone.

"The final third round is a challenge tournament, and each of the one hundred and eight high-ranking disciples has one chance to challenge the person in front of them, and the winner can swap rankings with him. Of course, you can also choose not to challenge anyone, but once you are challenged by others, you can't refuse, you must fight. However, for the sake of fairness, the same person can be challenged up to three times, and after three times, they will not have to participate in the battle again. ”

"In the end, among the top disciples, the first one can get 1,000 Xuan Ling points, the second can get 500 Xuan Ling points, the third can get 300 Xuan Ling points, and the rest of the top 10 can get 200 Xuan Ling points, the top 50 can get 100 Xuan Ling points, and the rest of the upper disciples can get 50 Xuan Ling points. In addition, those who rank first can also go to the Divine Weapons Pavilion to choose a top-grade spiritual weapon, and those who rank second and third can each choose a top-grade spiritual weapon. Elder Grief continued.

"The reward is so rich!" in the crowd, some new disciples suddenly exclaimed.

"This year's reward seems to be even more generous than the previous one, and I have never rewarded the best spirit weapon before!" an old disciple also shouted in surprise.

Everyone's enthusiasm was mobilized at once, and in the face of such a rich reward, almost drooling was about to flow, and their eyes were full of eager to try.

After hearing this, Shi Mu was also excited in his heart, he wanted to exchange for the grassroots exercises behind the Nine Transformations Xuangong, and he undoubtedly needed a lot of Xuanling points.

"Alright, the rules and rewards of the three rounds of competition have been announced, is there anything else you don't understand?" Elder Sorrow asked, glancing downward.

For a long time, no one spoke.

"Okay, since that's the case, the old man announced that the ten-year competition has officially begun. Let's go to the Qinglanbang Stone Monument to check the order of their respective matchups. Elder Grief said.

Shi Mu and the others immediately followed the flow of people and moved towards the huge cyan stone stele.

At this moment, a tall and thin young man with a gloomy face squeezed in front of Shi Mu in the crowd and said with a smile:

"Senior Brother Shi, don't come unharmed!"

"Your Excellency is...... Senior Brother Zhao?" Shi Mu was slightly stunned and said.

That yin young man was none other than Zhao Shenlei, listening to Shi Mu's tone, he seemed to have forgotten that he was such a person, and the smile on his face couldn't help but be a little stiff.

"Senior Brother Shi is really a noble person, how forgetful. Zhao Shenlei smiled reluctantly and said.

"Senior Brother Zhao, is there something wrong?" Shi Mu didn't want to say too much to him, and asked directly.

"It's nothing, just come over to say hello, and wish Senior Brother Shi a good result in the big competition. Zhao Shenlei said.

"Then borrow the auspicious words of my senior brother and say goodbye. After that, Shi Mu no longer paid attention to Zhao Shenlei, and squeezed towards the bluestone tablet with Ma Long's second daughter.

Zhao Shenlei stood in place, looking at Shi Mu's back, and his smiling face was suddenly swept away.

When Shi Mu, Ma Long, and Ziling came to the huge stone tablet of Qinglan Bang, they saw that the surface of the stone tablet was lit with blue light, and groups of battle information had been displayed on it.

In the third game of the No. 3 Wutai, Ziling played against Yu Tianfeng.

In the second game of the No. 9 martial arts stage, Ma Long played against Lu Yanwu.

In the first game of the 64th stage, Tanuki played against Shi Mu.

......

A few people glanced at the monument and saw their respective opponents.

Shi Mu also deliberately took a look at Zhao Jian's situation and found that his opponent was No. 34, and his opponent was an old disciple named Huchen.

"Brother Shi, Ziling, I wish you a great victory. Ma Long said to Shi Mu.

"Sister, you will definitely win! Brother Shi, see you later!" Ziling said.

After Shi Mu nodded to the second daughter, he walked in a certain direction.

At this time, many disciples who had received their signatures had also dispersed one after another, walking towards the martial arts platform where they were fighting.

Shi Mu's martial arts platform is located in the western area of this plain, not far from the Qinglan Bang.

When he came to the stage, he saw that on the stone platform, there was already a slender but somewhat rickety hunched man, standing with his back to him.

And around the stone platform, there were still some old disciples who had not arranged a battle, and they were gathering in twos and threes to chat.

As soon as Shi Mu approached, someone seemed to have spotted him and pointed at him, and the boos kept rising.

"Hehe, what kind of person am I, it's just a human race! A young man with a long fox face gathered on the sidelines pointed at Shi Mu with an orchid, and said angrily.

"If you are a human race, I'm afraid that Senior Brother Tanuki doesn't need to use the Fa Phase, and you can settle it out within three moves!" a young man with a short and obscene face next to him echoed.

The hunched man standing on the stage couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth when he heard the discussion on the sidelines, obviously very useful for complimenting these people.

Shi Mu had a calm face, turning a deaf ear to these nonsense words, walking on the stage in three or two steps, and standing ten feet in front of the hunched man.

Because this person was hunched back, Shi Mu was not able to see his true face until he walked in front of the other party.

I saw that the man's face was round, his eyebrows were thick and short, his round eyes flashed with a dull yellow light, and his flat and short nose was slightly turned up, but there was a three-petaled open rabbit mouth underneath, and the whole face looked very ugly.

Although the man was hunched over, his body was quite burly, a cut taller than Shi Mu, and his bare skin, including his face, was covered with yellow, black and gray fur, and he looked like a slender civet cat.

When he saw Shi Mu coming to him, he looked Shi Mu up and down with his eyes drooping, but he didn't look at it directly, but squinted his eyes, looking full of disdain. (To be continued.) )
