Chapter 39 • Disciple Ranking Competition
"Of course not!" Song Tianlong replied with a red face. But seeing that Dugu Chen Xili ignored himself, he turned around and twisted away.
Song Tianlong hurriedly followed Dugu Chenxi's footsteps, and the two of them walked through the crowded crowd and came to the backstage of the disciple ranking competition, ready to wait for the seniors in the Tang Sect to come and preside over and arrange the rules of the competition.
This time, Dugu Chenxi was stopped at the entrance of the backstage, the reason was naturally that only disciples who had signed up for the competition could enter the backstage of the disciple ranking competition. Song Tianlong said to Dugu Chenxi: "Ah Xi, you can go to the viewing seat and find a place to sit down and watch the game." ”
Dugu Chenxi naturally didn't dwell on it, just glanced at Song Tianlong deeply, and said: "There is never a shortage of geniuses among the disciples of the sect, although you have entered the early stage of spiritual void, but the realm is still a little worse than that of other disciples, so you must not take it lightly...... Especially, when I see a beautiful woman!" Dugu Chenxi took advantage of Song Tianlong's inattention, and stepped on Song Tianlong's instep again, and then turned away proudly.
Song Tianlong hugged his sore feet, limped into the backstage passage waiting for the game, and secretly complained: "Ah Xi, this guy is addicted to stepping on my feet, and he doesn't know how to measure at all." ”
When he came to the backstage waiting for the competition, Song Tianlong realized that there were really a lot of disciples who participated in the competition this time, and almost all of them were in the realm of consummation of the spiritual void period. And among them, there are actually a few of them, who are known to Song Tianlong, and a few rookie disciples who entered the Tang Sect with Song Tianlong.
"Hey, Senior Brother Song!" The one who took the initiative to greet Song Tianlong was the fat man Wang Gang, who successfully climbed the ladder with Song Tianlong that day.
Standing beside Wang Gang, Song Tianlong also recognized them one by one, they were all several other disciples who boarded the Lingxu Platform together that day, Xiao Jingxuan, Tang Jing, Tu Ziqing, Liao Qiongbi, and Chen Yumo.
It's just that the little guy who was missing the first place at the beginning, Lan Baiwang, finally failed to compete with Song Tianlong, and had no chance to enter the Tang Gate, so he could only wait for the next year's Tang Gate to recruit new people.
"Several, everyone is okay!" Song Tianlong also greeted his companions warmly, after all, everyone participated in the sect's disciple ranking competition together in the first year of entry. Speaking of which, they all invariably have a sense of intimacy with each other.
The older Xiao Jingxuan nodded towards Song Tianlong and said, "Senior Brother Song has made rapid progress, but in just three months, he has already cultivated to the realm of the early stage of the Spirit Void Period. ”
Seeing Xiao Jingxuan mention Song Tianlong's cultivation realm, several other people also showed surprised expressions, especially several women, who looked at Song Tianlong's expressions with subtle changes.
It is no wonder that Song Tianlong's strength at the recruitment ceremony is just a martial artist in the early stage of foundation building, although he finally defeated Lan Baiwang, but the others have only heard that Song Tianlong has mastered a powerful move, but they don't know much about Song Tianlong himself.
As a result, several women like Tang Jing, Tu Ziqing and others, even including Wang Gang, were not very impressed by Song Tianlong, but they remembered that there was a disciple who performed amazingly at the recruitment ceremony, but it was not the target of these people to catch up.
Song Tianlong was mentioned by Xiao Jingxuan to his cultivation realm, and he scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said: "A few of them are not bad, if I guess correctly, when this Senior Sister Tu Ziqing, Senior Sister Liao, and Senior Sister Chen entered the sect that day, they were all in the middle of the Spiritual Void Period, and now they are all in the realm of consummation of the Spiritual Void Period." ”
"Hah, you guy!" Humpty Dumpty Wang Gang on the side said dissatisfiedly, "You just care about mentioning the cultivation of your senior sisters, so don't you talk about your brother Wang and me by the way?"
"Oh, look at me. Song Tianlong suddenly said embarrassedly, "Senior Brother Wang, I'm really sorry, it's all my fault that I am obsessed with lust and only care about looking at beautiful women." ”
"You ......!" Although Song Tianlong's words seemed to be apologizing, to Wang Gang's ears, it was more like currying favor with Tu Ziqing and several other women, and he was choked up and speechless.
And several girls couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh when they saw Wang Gang's chubby face being suffocated. Even Tang Jing, who was standing on the side more indifferently, couldn't help but say, "Flim tongue!"
"Hahaha!" Song Tianlong and Wang Gang also looked at each other and laughed, even the older Xiao Jingxuan couldn't help but have a smile.
However, after Song Tianlong, Wang Gang and the others looked at each other and smiled, they still took advantage of the fact that the competition had not yet started, discussed with each other, and shared some information about the disciple ranking competition that they had learned with their partners.
I heard Wang Gang take the lead and said: "Everyone, like our newcomers who came to participate in the disciple ranking competition for the first time, I have just stepped into the spiritual void period and consummation, and I dare not report that there is much hope, so I am more concerned about the problem of the competition system, I heard that the number of disciples who signed up for the ranking competition this time is also more than 300 people, which is a full hundred more than the number of people who participated last year." ”
"yes. Tu Ziqing, who was more active, also sighed, "I have also heard that this is related to the fact that one year, in order to recruit more Lan disciples into the Tang Sect, Elder Lan Jingqi relaxed the recruitment requirements for that year. ”
The girl's mind has always been extremely sensitive to these gossip gossip, even Tang Jing, who has a cold personality, is no exception, and several women immediately chattered and discussed in a whisper when they heard Tu Ziqing mention the gossip news of Elder Lan.
The women discussed and formed a group, and only Song Tianlong, Wang Gang, and Xiao Jingxuan were left. At this time, it was Xiao Jingxuan who spoke, he looked at Song Tianlong and said, "I am more concerned about the Twelve Sons of Lingxu who were on the disciple ranking list last year. ”
"Oh?" Song Tianlong saw Xiao Jingxuan talking to him, and immediately became serious, he estimated that Xiao Jingxuan must have said these words to himself because he knew about the battle with Lan Baichu that day.
However, Song Tianlong didn't know much about Xiao Jingxuan, and wanted to know more about what kind of cultivation Senior Brother Xiao had reached now that he could be said to be the highest among the newcomer disciples that day. So, Song Tianlong opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what kind of realm Senior Brother Xiao is currently cultivating." ”
Xiao Jingxuan naturally didn't think that Song Tianlong wanted to test his own reality, but just smiled lightly and said: "The qi of the four elephants, there is still a lack of young yang qi that has not yet been understood. ”
"What?!" Song Tianlong didn't react yet, but Wang Gang on the side suddenly exclaimed when he heard it, and said: "I also said that I secretly understood the gold and fire in the five elements qi, and wanted to perform in this disciple ranking competition, and now it seems that if it is against Senior Brother Xiao, I will not have the slightest chance of winning." ”
Song Tianlong also said with admiration: "Senior Brother Xiao has only entered the Tang Sect for a short time, and he has understood the three breaths of the Four Elephant Qi, thinking about it, after this ranking competition, Senior Brother Xiao will be promoted to the realm of the Void Netherworld Period and become our deacon." ”
Regarding Song Tianlong and Wang Gang's praise, Xiao Jingxuan just smiled and said: "You don't have to be arrogant, I am much older than you, and before I entered the sect, I had already understood the Shaoyin and Taiyin in the four elephants, and now I have only understood one more breath, but I am not as fast as the progress of the two junior disciples." I'm really ashamed to be a senior brother......"
A Xiao Jingxuan is already so powerful, Song Tianlong can't help but turn his head to look at the woman who is still discussing the gossip news fiercely, the cold woman named Tang Jing, she was also in the realm of the spiritual void period on that day, but now she doesn't know what stage of progress she has reached?
"It seems that there will be a big change in the ranking of this year's disciple ranking competition. Humpty Dumpty Wang Gang sighed.
"Okay, let's stop talking about these non-game-related topics. Xiao Jingxuan interrupted Wang Gang's words and said with a serious expression, "Originally, I thought that Senior Brother Wang had just entered the realm of the consummation of the Spirit Void Period, but I didn't want to have already understood two of the Five Elements Qi. So, let's start with the twelfth blue and white Chu......"
Song Tianlong and the others chatted energetically, and the other disciples who were waiting for the start of the competition also formed a small circle, talking about the topics they were interested in. Not long after, an elder from the Tang Sect walked into the backstage of the participating disciples.
The elder coughed lightly, and the young disciples who were discussing enthusiastically in the background fell silent. Song Tianlong looked like a person, but it was the Elder Wentian who was in charge of Song Tianlong's recruitment ceremony that day.
I only heard Elder Wentian say to the many disciples who participated in the competition: "This year's disciple ranking competition is no different from previous years, it is still in the form of drawing lots to advance, and the last twelve will be determined, and you can be qualified to challenge last year's Twelve Sons of Lingxu, and those who succeed in the challenge will be the new members of the Twelve Sons of Lingxu this year, and they will receive additional rewards from the sect." And the other disciples who were not selected should not be discouraged, go back to practice diligently, and there will be a chance to fight again next year. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Song Tianlong and the other young disciples all replied in unison. Those who were able to participate in the disciple ranking competition were all like Song Tianlong and others, who had made full preparations before the competition, just waiting for the competition to start a blockbuster and obtain the rewards of the sect, in order to break through to a higher realm earlier.
"Good. Seeing that everyone didn't ask any questions, Elder Wentian continued: "Because there are too many participants this year, it is impossible to complete the competition in one day, so the sect has arranged a temporary residence for everyone in the back mountain, and the disciples who have advanced or those who have not yet taken their turn will rest in these dormitories for the past few days until the end of the competition...... The first place, Song Tianlong!"
Song Tianlong didn't expect that the first one in the first round was to draw himself, and he was also in a trance, but he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly walked out of the crowd.
"Come on!" When Song Tianlong was about to leave Xiao Jingxuan and a few others, Wang Gang secretly pulled Song Tianlong's sleeve and quietly cheered for Song Tianlong, and several other women also looked at Song Tianlong with hopeful eyes.
Song Tianlong felt a slight heat in his chest, and nodded firmly towards everyone.
"Battle disciple, Song Zheming. I saw a disciple who was about twenty-two or three years old walking out of the crowd, and Elder Wentian continued, "The two of them went to the No. 1 competition platform where they were fighting, and after the game was over, they returned to this backstage to register their results. ”
In this way, Song Tianlong and Song Zheming looked at each other, and then walked to the front of the competition platform together.
"What a coincidence, you and I have the same surname, and maybe we were a family five hundred years ago. Song Zheming was a gentle young man, and when he walked side by side with Song Tianlong to the front of the martial arts platform, he politely greeted Song Tianlong.
Song Tianlong saw Song Zheming talking to him, and said politely: "Yes, it's really a coincidence, I hope Senior Brother Song will be merciful during the game." ”
"Ha! Senior Brother Song laughed. Song Zheming smiled and said, "I have long heard that Senior Brother Song is a young genius, and before he entered the Tang Sect that day, he defeated the Lan Baiwang of the Gusu Lan clan in the early stage of spiritual void by virtue of his cultivation in the early stage of foundation building. ”
"Haha, that's all a fluke. Song Tianlong said humbly.
The two just talked like this, and they came to the front of the stage after a while. The stands of the "Oh Oh !!" martial arts arena were already full of spectators, and they all applauded and screamed enthusiastically for Song Tianlong and other players who had the courage to participate in the disciple ranking competition.
"Song Zheming, Song Zheming, Song Zheming......" In a certain position in the front of the martial arts arena, the female disciples of several sects screamed loudly, attracting people's attention.
"Song Zheming is so handsome!!", "Ah !!!"...... I don't know which female disciple was the first to shout that Song Zheming was so handsome, and then it attracted all kinds of screams from other female disciples.
Song Tianlong looked at Song Zheming with a smile on his face and said, "Senior Brother Song is so popular!"
Song Zheming blushed a little and said embarrassedly: "They are all junior sisters from the same family, and they usually like to joke about me...... I just hope that it won't be too ugly to lose for a while. ”
