CHAPTER XXII
After the eldest grandson Jun and Gongsun Di competed, the next few rounds of competition also went on quickly, and the only ones who were entangled for a long time were Yi Xichen and Wu Mo. Just like the previous game, although everyone was looking forward to seeing Yi Xichen play extraordinarily again, Yi Xichen played extremely conservatively, almost being chased and beaten by Wu Mo.
It wasn't until everyone thought that Yi Xichen had lost, and Wu Mo also began to be arrogant, that he suddenly found that he was entangled!
It turned out that Yi Xichen was also constantly laying out when he was avoiding his edge, leaving extremely fine crystal spider silk everywhere he went, and he suddenly attacked when he completely introduced Wu Mo into the game. Wu Mo was trapped and couldn't make a move for a while, Yi Xichen took this opportunity to knock Wu Mo out of the field with a sword.
Although Yi Xichen won the game, he got a lot of blank eyes. He still didn't care. He knew in his heart that this was not his problem, it was the Heavenly Sword Sect that had formed such a strange atmosphere under the leadership of Yuying Zhenren and Qiu Jian. And the Heavenly Sword Sect, for these young disciples, is just a temporary shelter, in the future, the heavens and the earth will be big, and the entire cultivation realm will be the place where they can show their strength.
After all the competitions were over, the disciples dispersed, and the twenty disciples continued to go to the Shennong Hall to draw lots to determine the opponent for the next round of the competition.
The next match is decided according to the strength of the disciples and the previous winning rate, and the opponent who is matched is often the same strength as themselves, and the atmosphere in the hall is much more relaxed than the previous two days, because the disciples have already guessed about their opponents after them.
Xiao Kui's heart was entangled. He has already won two rounds in a row, and his opponent in the next round will only be decided out of four.
He secretly glanced at the eldest grandson.
Will his opponent be the eldest grandson? If so, he will lose. If not...... If not, if he can't win the next game, he will miss the opportunity to fight against the eldest grandson. It might be a good thing for him, it's just ......
As he struggled within, he sensed another wave of hostility. There is no doubt that this hostility still comes from Yi Xichen.
Xiao Kui glanced at Yi Xichen in confusion. So, why is Yi Xichen so hostile to him?
After the wooden kite flew up, the wooden kite of the eldest grandson Junjun fell into the hands of Lu Ziyao first.
Seeing this result, Lu Ziyao smiled kindly at his eldest grandson. For him, winning or losing is not so important, the competition itself is the most important thing.
The wooden kite in Yi Xichen's hand fell into Xiao Kui's hands after flying in the main hall for a while.
Xiao Kui was stunned for a moment when he caught the wooden kite, and then he was ecstatic: It's not Lu Ziyao or the eldest grandson, he can win another round!
After the draw of lots, all the disciples withdrew from the main hall and looked at their opponents tomorrow outside the hall gate, some happy and some worried.
Inside the Fengqi Pavilion Palace.
Yuying Zhenren is meditating in the temple. He never watched the contests of the disciples, but for him, the contests of the little disciples were like child's play, he didn't care, he just knew the final result.
Several wooden kites flew in through the window and landed at his feet.
Yuying Zhenren opened his eyes: "Is the lottery over?" He picked up a wooden kite, and after a while, his two thick eyebrows gradually knotted, and muttered, "Yi Xichen...... I didn't expect it to be him......"
Outside the Shennong Temple.
Xiao Kui swaggered in front of Yi Xichen and said arrogantly: "Senior Brother Yi, I'm afraid your luck will end here." In his opinion, the competition won by Yi Xichen's means was all due to luck.
"Oh?" Yi Xichen smiled disappreciatively.
Xiao Kui was really enraged and was about to have a seizure, but he suddenly calmed down, squinted his eyes and sneered: "Yi Xichen, do you think that if you defeat Senior Brother Wang, you can be arrogant?" Don't let me know that the more arrogant you are, the more weak your heart is! β
Yi Xichen looked back at his eldest grandson: "Am I arrogant?" β
The eldest grandson Jun shook his head: "He is more arrogant." β
Xiao Kui: "......"
Xiao Kui said angrily: "Do you really think that you can hide from the world by using this kind of side-door technique?!" β
On that day, Yi Xichen was able to defeat Wang Qingqiao with a sword, and everyone felt strange in their hearts, but most people couldn't see the clue and didn't delve into it. However, the higher the cultivation, the more strange people can see. With Xiao Kui's cultivation, he just felt that this matter was strange, but he naturally didn't know what was going on, so he went to inquire in many ways, and after Lu Ziyao's words and Qiu Jian's words, he finally inquired about the truth - Seize the will.
For this reason, in the interval after the competition, Xiao Kui consulted many classics on the method of seizing the mind. He already roughly understood what the so-called seizure was all about, although he still didn't understand why Yi Xichen, a pseudo-spiritual root, could be snatched up, but he looked at Yi Xichen's two-day competition, and knew that the battle with Wang Qingqiao was just a flash in the pan, and he couldn't bear it again.
Yi Xichen was not too surprised to be seen through by Xiao Kui. For these sword cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the most important thing is to improve their own cultivation, as for what means to use to improve, the door rules do not have too many restrictions on this. A disciple is voluntarily taken away by others, or even voluntarily explodes a blow, which is not considered a violation of the door rules, of course, the backlash suffered by the disciple is also borne by himself. And it can only be useful for people like Yi Xichen who can't give full play to their maximum potential, and if others suffer, they will only be counterattacked. He said calmly: "Since I can be taken once, I can also be taken a second time, if Senior Brother Xiao likes it, he can also be taken away." β
Xiao Kui was anxious: "You lie!" You can't afford to take it twice in a short period of time! Unless you don't want to die! β
Xiao Kui naturally didn't care about Yi Xichen's body, but worried about tomorrow's game. He originally thought that Yi Xichen would not be able to be taken again, but he didn't expect Yi Xichen to be so determined, could it be that he could really be taken again?! It's hard to say whether you win or lose tomorrow!
The eldest grandson Jun frowned invisibly. He would not refute Yi Xichen in front of Xiao Kui, so he said to Yi Xichen with the method of spiritual rhino voice transmission: "No." β
"Don't worry." Yi Xichen also responded to him with a spiritual voice, "I'm just scaring him." β
For sword cultivation, in addition to cultivation, the state of mind is also very important. What sword cultivation pursues is the unity of man and sword, and the sword is moved by the heart. Once the mood is disturbed, it is difficult to control one's sword. Today, Gongsun Di just wanted to disturb the mood of the eldest grandson, but unfortunately he didn't succeed. And now, Yi Xichen is also scaring Xiao Kui, is it effective...... It was a success.
Sure enough, Xiao Kui's face was red and black, and he looked at Yi Xichen in disbelief.
At this moment, the pass token on Yi Xichen's waist shook.
Every disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect had a pass token, so that the elders could summon the disciples at any time. Since there are four pavilion elders in the Heavenly Sword Sect, each elder has a different color of the token when he gives orders, and the elders will only summon their own disciples, so Yi Xichen's first reaction is that the medicine is not poisonous and he has something to look for. However, when he looked down and saw that the token had turned red, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Not only Yi Xichen, but also the eldest grandson Jun and Xiao Kui were also stunned, and at the same time went to look at their own tokens, but their tokens did not change.
"The boss is looking for you?!" Xiao Kui's face was incredible.
- Red is the most important color in the edicts of the Heavenly Sword Gate, and it belongs to the head of the Heavenly Sword Gate, Yuying Zhenren. A master like Yuying Zhenren, who has devoted himself to cultivation and never accepts disciples, he doesn't care about his disciples' affairs, so he has never summoned any disciples. What can make the head of the sect use the order is often a relatively strict matter, such as the attack of a foreign enemy, and the head of the sect needs to quickly gather his disciples to resist. Therefore, Xiao Kui and the eldest grandson Jun will immediately see if they have been summoned.
Xiao Kui looked at Yi Xichen vigilantly: "Why is the head looking for you?" β
Yi Xichen said: "After I won Senior Brother Wang the day before yesterday, the head of the sect summoned me over and intended to accept me as a disciple of the inner room. I'm afraid it's for this right now. β
"What?!" Xiao Kui almost fell to the ground, "The head of the sect wants to take you as an apprentice?!" β
Xiao Kui felt like he was going crazy! He admitted that Yi Xichen had potential, but how deep this potential was, he couldn't see it with his cultivation. However, Yuying Zhenren never accepts apprentices, Yi Xichen can actually make him move his mind to accept apprentices, this is against the sky! Could it be that Yi Xichen is already strong enough to be this Cheng dΓΉ?!
Xiao Kui's breath was completely chaotic, and the sword in his scabbard began to tremble.
Yi Xichen said with a smile: "Don't dare to make the head wait for a long time, I will miss the company first." Senior Brother Xiao, see you tomorrow during the game. β
Appreciating Xiao Kui's stunned expression, Yi Xichen snorted slightly, and the imperial sword went towards the Fengqi Palace. As soon as he left, he received a voice from the eldest grandson.
"You lied to him?"
"Of course." Yi Xichen replied, "I scared him." β
The eldest grandson Jun glanced at Xiao Kui's sword that was shaking like chaff. He was still a little worried about tomorrow's game, but now it seems that he is too worried. He calmly ventilated the message: "You scared him to death." β
"Haha!"
Yi Xichen was overjoyed, looking at the Fengqi Hall that had appeared in front of him, but he also had doubts in his heart: Yuying Zhenren, who never cared about disciples, was looking for him, what was the matter?
