Chapter 70: A Succession of Surprises
"That's it, three competitions, no blood. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info puzzling, but it seems to be reasonable. Yan Xiu'er sat sideways at the head of the bed, and after speaking, she stared at Zhan Bai who was reclining on the pillow with her eyes closed and pretending to sleep with a complicated expression.
Zhan Bai slowly opened his eyes, his eyes burning, "Hehe, what a hidden child." From an outsider's point of view, the three elite disciples seemed to be mentally uncertain and confused by their beauty, causing them to play abnormally, and even deliberately release water, but they sought defeat. With this kind of result, even the top of the sect would only be disappointed in those three elite disciples, and no one would be able to doubt her. This method is really clever, if my guess is correct, even in the later competition for the top ten core disciples, the process is similar. ”
"Senior brother...... Master's guess was correct. At that time, it was Huang Yinghuang who was competing with Yin'er. Senior Sister Huang's cultivation has reached the sixth-grade primal realm, although in the previous core disciple competition, she can get the tenth place. But it is still much higher than the four pins of the first realm of Yin'er. What's more, the two are both core disciples, and there is not much difference in the importance of the sect. It stands to reason that there should be no suspense for Senior Sister Huang to win, but no matter the result or the process, it is still a big surprise. Senior Sister Huang was completely out of order, and I don't know if she was affected by the previous competition, she was always distracted, and she was suppressed by Yin'er as soon as she started, and she was unable to turn things around until the final victory was decided. Yan Xiu'er couldn't help but sigh when he said this, he clearly remembered that when the victory and defeat were divided, Senior Sister Huang's pitiful appearance of losing her soul.
"Oh, is there any difference in the swordsmanship used by Yin'er?" Zhan Bai asked.
"She used the Luoying sword technique, which can only be regarded as decent. Therefore, everyone thinks that Senior Sister Huang should have been affected by the previous competition. Yan Xiu'er replied.
"Haha, do you think so?" Zhan Bai actually laughed, but he didn't know that he was prostrated inward, and his blood and qi surged, and he coughed violently.
Seeing this, Yan Xiu'er hurriedly got up and patted her back for Zhanbai, and finally smoothed out the violent ups and downs in her chest.
"What a hidden child, he is still the master of both men and women." Zhan Bai wiped the blood coughed up from the corner of his mouth, but his expression was very excited.
"Men and women?" Yan Xiu'er was puzzled, in his opinion, Yin'er's ability to enter the top ten and obtain the qualification to participate in the five competitions was completely due to luck.
Zhan Bai glanced at Yan Xiu'er with deep meaning, but finally did not explain.
The intelligence of his own disciple is enough, but unfortunately his vision is still too narrow, which is no wonder to him, after all, the days of Xuan cultivation are short, and he has been staying in the Lushan Sword Sect, lacking too much experience.
"Okay, let's not talk about her. As a teacher, I am also very pleased that you can make it to the top ten, which is good. But don't be complacent because of this achievement, Xuan Xiu will definitely redouble his efforts in the future. While praising Zhanbai, he did not forget to knock it.
"The disciple knows." Yan Xiu'er hurriedly responded.
Speaking of which, perhaps there are a lot of doubts in the hearts of the officials, and they don't even know what the previous conversation between the two meant. I'll explain it in more detail here.
Yesterday was the last day of the Lushan Sword Sect Competition, which was divided into four stages, namely, the challenge of elite disciples to core disciples, the challenge of elite disciples to be challenged by core disciples who have been in the sect for less than three years, the battle for the ranking of core disciples who have been in the sect for more than three years, and the battle for the top ten core disciples in the end.
The challenge of the elite disciples to the core disciples, because the disparity in cultivation strength is too great, the result is undoubtedly disappointing to the top of the sect, but the next challenge has brought a lot of surprises to the sect. First of all, Yan Xiu'er defeated Ran Liao with a few moves in the previous two days, and the soldiers were bloodless, and they didn't even draw their swords, so that none of the elite disciples dared to come forward to fight. Although Yan Jun'er was unfortunately defeated next, the reason was not inferior strength, but the lack of experience, and this result was not satisfactory.
The last Yin'er on the field is once again eye-catching, although Yin'er's cultivation is not high, but the foundation is unusually solid, and his appearance is too amazing, the same Luoying sword trick is used, but it gives people a feeling like a spring breeze, and the three elite disciples who challenged the seven meat and eight vegetarian fans, willing to lose. In the three competitions, there was no tension at all, it was more like a dance that had been choreographed a long time ago, and the roles of the three elite disciples were just a trick to set off the flowers, and when the time came, it was natural for them to disappear by themselves.
If Yan Xiu'er is to deter people, then Yin'er is to charm people. The methods are different, but the results are similar.
The battle for the rankings that followed was much more brutal. A total of eleven core disciples who have been in the sect for more than three years, almost all of them did not give an inch, in order to defeat the opponent, they completely used their housekeeping skills, but fortunately, the elders of the sect personally presided over the battle, so that the accident was avoided.
After a few rounds, these eleven core disciples also had a high and low order, and the one at the top of the list was Cheng Hong, who had the highest voice, with the cultivation of the peak of the Nine Rank Taichu Realm, crushed all the opponents and successfully reached the top. And he will also become the core figure representing the Lushan Sword Sect to participate in the five sect competitions this time.
As for the final top ten competition, it is specially arranged for the competition of the five sects, because each sect only has ten places, it stands to reason that only the top ten of the previous round of competition need to be taken, and the reason why this round of competition is arranged is for the core disciples who have been in the sect for less than three years.
Adhering to the principle of fair competition, the cultivation of core disciples who have been in the sect for less than three years is undoubtedly not high, so the symbolic meaning of this round of competition far exceeds the actual meaning, and it is more like doing it for people to see. In previous years, there were no surprises in the results of this round of competition, but this year's situation has made many high-level sect leaders full of expectations, for no other reason, just because of one person, that is Yan Xiu'er.
In the last round of the order battle, the core disciple at the end of the list had naturally lost the qualification to participate in the competition of the five sects, so as the core disciples who had been in the sect for less than three years, Yan Xiu'er's brothers and sisters and Yin'er would have the opportunity to challenge the core disciples ranked tenth, ninth, and eighth. The winner will go up, the loser will go down, and finally ten places will be produced to participate in the five competitions.
At the beginning of this round of competition, Yan Jun'er immediately chose to abstain, with her cultivation, it is difficult for even elite disciples to win, let alone core disciples, it is simply self-inflicted, and the rest are naturally Yan Xiu'er and Yin'er, so the core disciple who ranks eighth can be regarded as winning without a fight and preserving the fruits of victory.
According to the regulations, Yan Xiu'er will draw lots with Yin'er to decide, who chooses the opponent first, everyone knows that the ninth is definitely higher than the tenth, so the next choice is undoubtedly very important.
However, at this moment, Yan Xiu'er made an amazing decision again, he gave up the opportunity to draw lots and gave the choice to Yin'er.
For this result, Yin'er didn't shirk, and after thanking Yan Xiu'er for her kindness with a smile, she unexpectedly chose Huang Ying, who was ranked tenth, as her opponent, so Yan Xiu'er's opponent naturally became Cai Song, the core disciple of the ninth.
For the high-level leaders of the Sword Sect, there were undoubtedly too many surprises on this day, no, or surprises.
Huang Ying, as a core disciple, may be because of the repeated defeats in the battle of the order, in the competition with Yin'er, he played a great abnormality, and was completely suppressed.
Luck, it seems, on this day, Yin'er was shrouded by the goddess of luck, for this result, the top of the Sword Sect was both happy and sad, and the joy was that after Yan Xiu'er, the sect once again found a disciple with great potential. The sad thing is that although Yin'er won Huang Ying with luck, in the competition of the five sects, this kind of luck obviously will not always come, so it will undoubtedly have a certain impact on the strength of the sect.
It's a pity that the result is already like this, even if he is reluctant in his heart, the high-level of the Sword Sect is not thick enough to overturn the rules he has set at will, so he can only swallow this bitter fruit and give Yin'er a precious place in the five sect competitions.
The competition between Yan Xiu'er and Cai Song, as the last of this sect competition, has undoubtedly attracted much attention, and even faintly has the tendency of the finale, and even the sect leader Cao Zaichuan personally stepped up and presided over the competition.
One is a rising star whose cultivation is not high, but whose qualifications are peerless, and who is known as the hope of the sect's future, and the other is a core disciple who has cultivated to reach the seven-rank Taichu realm, and completely has the upper hand in both cultivation and actual combat experience. The significance of the collision between the two has even exceeded the quota of the five competitions.
Three products to seven products, even the city to Luoying, continuous is not absolutely virtual and real is difficult to distinguish.
At the beginning of the competition, Yan Xiu'er's performance was eye-catching, he did not show the arrogance he showed before, but completely took a defensive position. Casting the Liancheng Sword Technique to conjure up countless sword lights, completely enveloping itself, no matter how fierce Cai Song's attack is, how difficult it is to distinguish between reality and fiction, it doesn't move like a mountain, this calm, Gongsun Zhan who watched nodded again and again, his eyes burned, as if he was admiring a piece of jade.
One hundred moves, two hundred moves, two hundred and fifty moves.
Cai Song is fast, Yan Xiu'er is fast, Cai Song is slow, Yan Xiu'er is slow, Cai Songxu, Yan Xiu'er doesn't pay attention, Cai Songshi, Yan Xiu'er soldiers will block. The scorching battle situation, the disciples around him, all of them were very addicted.
One stick of incense, two pillars of incense...... Time passed little by little, but no one was impatient, and the two people in the battle, with the consumption of Xuan power, the frequency of attack and defense gradually slowed down, but the more so, the more cautious they became, and no one wanted to lose at the last moment.
At this point in the competition, Yan Xiu'er's performance is undoubtedly satisfactory, even Gongsun Zhan knows that the difference between the two is four grades after all, even if Yan Xiu'er is much lower than Cai Song's consumption rate because of his single-minded defense, but in the end, he will still exhaust his Xuan power earlier, and at that time, there will be no suspense about the outcome of the victory.
It's a pity that Yan Xiu'er staged a miracle again, and just a moment before his Xuan power was exhausted, he finally changed his tricks.
For the first time, he switched from defense to offense, but instead of using the long sword in his hand.
"Buzz !!!"
A trembling sword roar radiated from Yan Xiu'er's body, and then a three-foot sword qi visible to the naked eye, with ripples like water, broke out from his life and slashed towards Cai Song, who was close at hand.
"Sword grid, this is sword grid ?!!!" A burst of exclamations came from the mouths of the various elders of the Sword Sect, and they couldn't close their mouths in horror at all.
The speed of the sword qi is not fast, but in the case of Cai Song, who consumes a huge amount of Xuan power at this time, it is impossible to dodge, not to mention that the incident is suddenly weird, his brain is already blank, and the whole person is stupid.
Fortunately, although Cai Song was stupid, someone reacted, and it was Cao Zaichuan, as the host, who waved a palm in time to slap Cai Song away, and finally avoided this killer blow.
By now, the winner has been decided.
