A month later, winter is coming, the air is mixed with a little chill, the bamboo forest on the peak of Zhushan is covered with pieces of withered yellow, Chen Changxiao still gets up early and comes to the backyard to practice, at this time the clothes on his body are a little thicker, holding the sword in his right hand, the wind under his feet, and every move is orderly. After two quarters of an hour, he slowly stopped, adjusted his breathing, and then straightened his waist, shook the sword body, and sent out bursts of righteous qi, and then stepped out, even the person with the sword was like an arrow from the string, but in the blink of an eye, it appeared dozens of meters away, looking back at the place, a shadow transformed by spiritual power stood in a move, and the whole appearance was exactly the same as the original body except for some illusory. Chen Changxiao, who came out with a sword, raised his hand and engraved his name on the bamboo body in front of him, the spiritual power of his left hand expanded, and the grip exploded, without any delay, the shadow behind him instantly condensed, and the sword stood upright, leaving an afterimage in front of the bamboo body dozens of meters away, which gradually disappeared as a ball of spiritual power turned into pink light.

"Seven shadows step first, one shadow. ”

Chen Changxiao muttered in his mouth, his ears were crooked, and there were a few clappings from the side.

"Not bad. Gu Ye smiled and walked a few steps. Chen Changxiao put away the Cangling Sword, and it seemed that his cultivation had ended here.

"Tomorrow is the ranking of disciples in the door, only the disciples who have stepped into the Yuan Chu Realm are eligible to compete, now I have practiced the first weight of the Seven Shadow Steps, and the eleven swords of the wind have also been practiced to the sixth form, it is not a big problem to compete for a high ranking." ”

Chen Changxiao smiled, very confident. The ranking of the disciple competition once every three months is very important for each disciple, the list is only ranked in the top 100, and the disciples who enter the competition have different levels of rewards, there are pills, there are precious medicinal materials, and all those who participate in the competition have the qualifications to enter the cultivation pavilion to practice.

The cultivation pavilion is located opposite the Shengong Pavilion in Qingjun Square, and the two five-story towers on the opposite side are, there are heaven and earth spiritual qi that are more than twice as thick as the outside, and from top to bottom are the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The material of the two towers is very rare, there is the effect of constantly absorbing the spirit of heaven and earth, that kind of material is a kind of clay, the entire Yuanling Continent is only a few places, all in the hands of the imperial court, under the management of the royal family, not commercial, to the Xuanmen or nobles to build a cultivation room, it is said that in Yunzhou, only four Xuanmen have this kind of cultivation pavilion. In addition, there is also a matter elder operation formation in the pavilion, so that the Lingqi in the pavilion is in a sufficient state at any time. In the Xuanmen or a martial arts family, after the entry cultivation has completed the specified number of years, you can leave to pursue a higher martial arts, or you can stay and assign a job in the door, become a clerk, take care of the affairs of the door, and have different levels of salary every month, as for how to choose, it is up to you.

Gu Ye pursed his lips and didn't say anything, in addition to getting a good ranking, in addition to obtaining treasures in the door, there is also a very important point, that is, to gain fame and favor, for these young and vigorous disciples, the feeling of being looked up to by everyone is unbelievable. In addition, disciples of the outer gate have the opportunity to enter the inner gate.

Chen Changxiao stretched his waist and said, "I won't practice today, go back to rest and rest, and make adequate preparations." "In the past two months, he has been cultivating non-stop every day, and his five elements spiritual power has been used like a fish in water, and his swordsmanship and footwork have made extraordinary progress, coupled with his cultivation of the top grade of the Yuan Chu Realm and the Cangling Sword, there should be no problem mixing into the top fifty. In the past few days, Gu Ye has investigated the strength of the disciples of each mountain peak, and the disciples under the knees of the master, except for Jiang Xiaoli, who has just started, the lowest is the middle grade of the Yuan Chu Realm, and there are only a dozen disciples under the Great Elder, and the lowest are all the top grades of the Yuan Chu Realm, Chen Changxiao calculated in his heart, counting the other mountain peaks and my fellow cultivators, it is not necessarily that I can't beat any of them, the top fifty is just right.

In the past few days, there was something that surprised Chen Changxiao, the third brother Chu crossed the bridge and actually broke through the Yuan Chu Realm five days ago, Chen Changxiao and Jiang Xiaoli were very happy when they found out.

After a while, Gu Ye walked with Chen Changxiao, and said, "When do you get the first place, let's leave here, how about it?"

Chen Changxiao was stunned, smiled bitterly, and said angrily: "First, I'm only eighteen now, how can I compare to those disciples of the Spirit True Realm who are in their twenties." ”

Gu Ye laughed, "It seems that the two of us are still very similar, the old man also said this when he was so old to you, guess what happened later?"

Chen Changxiao paused for a moment, wanting to ask something, but Gu Ye strode up for a while, raised his head and smiled: "Become famous in one battle!"

Chen Changxiao watched the master walk past him, and a vicissitudes of life came into his eyes, as if the person in front of him had many unforgettable experiences.

......

The next morning, the first day of early winter, the breeze was getting colder and the mountains were turning whiter. Chen Changxiao went to Qingjun Square with Gu Ye early in the morning, where the competition ranking will be held. It didn't take long for them to arrive, and at a glance, there was a crowd of people, and after a rough count, there were thousands of disciples. Thinking that the inner door is only fifty together, this gap is really big.

After filling in the names of the clerks, they came to the territory of the nine elders, eight outer doors and two inner gates, divided into ten areas in a circle, and a piece was vacated in the middle for the competition, and thousands of small stools were moved to do it separately, and the whole competition process was presided over by several deacons and elders.

After settling down in the field, almost all of them faced the side of the Nine Elders, and suddenly there was a lot of discussion, Chen Changxiao was extremely embarrassed in his heart, and the area he was in was like a missing corner, vacating a large area.

A middle-aged deacon elder slowly walked to the center of the martial arts arena, and used his spiritual power to let out a deafening voice: "Please don't be impatient, the competition will start immediately, before that, I will now read out the rules of the competition." ”

"The number of participants in the martial arts competition of the disciples of the Qingyun Sect is a total of 520 people. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Changxiao sighed a little emotionally, he couldn't imagine how many people had reached the Yuan Chu realm.

"Due to the large number of people, in the first round, every two people compete for one minute, regardless of victory or defeat, only look at the process, and the final evaluation is determined by who is weak and who is strong in the process of the competition, and is personally evaluated by the head. During the competition, there are the following rules:"

“......”

While listening to the rules, Chen Changxiao was thinking about this, this minute of competition criticism, it seems that he has to directly use all his strength to let the head see it. At a glance, looking at the head sitting at the front, the various elders and the many disciples behind them, Chen Changxiao put his hand on the Cangling Sword straddling his waist, his eyes were stern.

"The rules of the competition are all the same, and in the first round of the competition, two people are randomly selected from each game. The winner advances to the next round, and the same goes for the top 100 until the top 100 are selected. ”

After speaking, the middle-aged man stepped back, and when the deacon elder took his seat, he suddenly said, "Competition, start now!"

Chen Changxiao stepped forward and observed the situation. I saw the deacon elder not far away pick up a list, looked around, and said, "The first group, Sun Yang vs. Wu Hao!"

At that time, two tall men about twenty years old came out of the area of the sixth elder and the seventh elder respectively, and the two of them saluted each other with fists, and under the order of a deacon elder, the two of them ran the dantian spiritual power at the same time, one side was the wood attribute, and the other was the water attribute, both of which were the cultivation of the middle grade of the Yuan Chu Realm. I saw that Sun Yang took the initiative to attack, clenched his fists with both hands, and suddenly the green light burst out, rushing forward, extremely fast, Wu Hao did not hurry to pull out the six-foot spear behind him, his body was on the defensive, his hands quickly turned the spear, and a blue water wave barrier was blocked in front of him, wanting to catch the former's full force, and sure enough, the two fists slammed into the barrier, making a buzzing sound, Wu Hao's barrier twisted violently, and he took half a step back, but he still blocked it, and the people watching around were a little surprised. Sun Yang in the field was a blow invalid, a little annoyed, and was about to retreat, but found that his fists were sucked by the barrier and could not be withdrawn, Wu Hao curled the corners of his mouth, stopped turning the gun, the barrier disappeared, turned around and punched out, Sun Yang couldn't react, was in the middle of the abdomen, and retreated ten meters away, supported the ground with both hands, and vomited in his mouth.

"It's a minute!"

Sun Yang stood up holding his abdomen, his eyes were full of disbelief, the other party's cultivation was obviously the same as himself, but he directly defeated himself in less than a minute. Wu Hao smiled lightly, clasped his fists in salute, turned away, and Wu Hao's words came from this.

Chen Changxiao was extremely surprised, he actually divided the winner and loser in one minute, and he was still two fellow practitioners. This Wu Hao is a bit strong.
