Chapter 33: The Challenge

The warm sun of spring revived everything, and the pouring temperature made people a little drowsy, but on the huge square of the Qiankun Sect, thousands of people were in high spirits, and the thousand people in the center of the square maintained a tense momentum, and the other disciples gathered around maintained the mood of watching the excitement, and kept pointing at the outstanding few people in this class of freshmen.

As a first-year freshman who has just entered the school, he was treated differently by the inner door and the outer door at the same time, so the 400 disciples who were incorporated into the outer gate were all practicing hard for three months, looking forward to succeeding in the challenge today and becoming one of the inner disciples.

And the disciples who entered the top 600 in the freshman assessment, especially those at the bottom of the ranking, felt that there were hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at their positions behind them, and they were also trying their best to improve their strength as much as possible.

A pair of cold eyes staring at Long Yu in the crowd watching the battle, this person is Jing Qing, who has a three-year competition appointment with Long Yu, although Jing Yizhuo told him not to provoke Long Yu, but when he thought of Hua Xiruo, he was extremely unwilling, today is the first challenge of the freshmen, I heard that Long Yu has faintly become the first freshman, and his strength has also reached the Xuanling Realm, he really can't sit still, it has only been a year and a half since the time of the bet, Long Yu is already about to catch up with himself, he found an excuse, sneaked to the square, want to see the rising Long Yu, if it is really as good as rumored, he will use means to suppress his growth。

Long Yu always felt that a pair of eyes with good intentions were staring at him, and he glanced at the crowd watching the battle but didn't find it, so he had to shake his head helplessly, could it be that he was too sensitive? In the Qiankun Sect, the only one who hated himself was Jing Qing, could it really be him?

The challenge didn't seem to have much influence, and the top echelons of the Qiankun Sect only had Shen Yiran and Zhong Yi, the elders in charge of the inner and outer gates, as well as some disciples of the Moon Destroying Hall and Lingyun Hall.

And the part of the disciples of the Destroying Moon Hall and the Lingyun Hall looked at these thousand people, their eyes showed envy, they had already lost the opportunity to be cultivated by the sect because they were too old to exceed the requirements, and they could only lament that they were born at the wrong time.

There are not too many rules for the challenge, the thirty squads of the inner gate guard, and the four hundred disciples of the outer gate choose the opponent to challenge, each of them has three chances to challenge, if they fail, they can only wait until the next challenge, and after the challenge, the captain challenges and distributes rewards.

There were ten rings in the square, and Long Yu's first squad walked to the first ring when Shen Yiran announced the start of the challenge.

After the defender was in place, the four hundred disciples who had been assigned to the outer gate would start to challenge from the last place, and the last in the ranking was a young man who looked a little free, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with shoulder-length hair with some natural curls scattered haphazardly.

"My name is Xiang Jun, what I want to challenge is..."Xiang Jun deliberately dragged out his voice, but his footsteps moved in the direction of the first ring.

Long Yu noticed that the young man walked towards the first ring where he was, and looked at his team members a little nervously, among the nineteen people, only Feng Wu, who was a six-star in the Spirit Realm, was the most dangerous, and he stayed in bed for half a month because of his injury last time, although his strength caught up later, but among the team members, they were at the bottom of Feng Wu.

He has already taught everyone the ten styles of falling leaves from sub-recruitment to joint recruitment, and even according to the elders, the unity of the ten styles is the treasure of the Qiankun Sect and the second sword of the Qiankun Nine Swords, Wan Ye Fei, Long Yu also taught the nineteen people in person without reservation, and as the captain, what should be done has been done, and the rest can only rely on themselves.

The other nine people at the bottom of the outer gate rankings are also on the line, ready to pick and challenge opponents.

The others watched Xiang Jun walk towards the first ring, and they also knew in their hearts that the sixth-hundredth Shui Yuan Sheng was in the first squad last time, and if they chose the most confident opponent, it would naturally be Shui Yuan Sheng.

"I'm going to challenge the No. 1 ranked dragon feather!"

The crowd in the square began to discuss, this guy is either full of self-confidence, or he wants to be grandstanding, or he was kicked in the head by a donkey, and he actually went to challenge Long Yu, who ranked first, that is said to have been firmly in the first place in this class of freshmen after three months of cultivation.

The members of the first team also looked at the young man named Xiang Jun in confusion, only Long Yu smiled bitterly, but he didn't expect that he would appear in the first game of the challenge.

"What's the matter, does Senior Brother Long Yu look down on Xiang Jun, or is he afraid of losing his first place? Xiang Jun walked into the first ring and said loudly, for fear that Long Yu would not fight.

Long Yu walked out slowly, thought about straddle the long sword diagonally on his back, and made a gesture of please, he was not holding it up, but the opponent was bare-handed, if he used the sword, he would not be able to hang his face if he won.

Xiang Jun put on a posture, and suddenly threw a punch, Long Yu didn't dare to be careless, and used half of his spiritual power to use the Tiger Leap Fist, and before his fists collided, Xiang Jun had already flown towards the stage like a kite with a broken line.

Long Yu inadvertently saw Xiang Jun's heart as calm as ashes, and was shocked in his heart, and immediately used the Qiankun Dragon Body Method to the extreme, catching Xiang Jun the moment he fell into the ring.

"How do I think you have a feeling of seeking defeat?" Placing Xiang Jun on the ground, Long Yu asked puzzled.

"I was forced to come to the Qiankun Sect, there is still a year, and after three more failures, no one will force me again, what I desire is freedom, not being bound. ”

Long Yu sensed from Xiang Jun's constricted eyebrows that the other party had a lot of thoughts.

"My actions make you laugh, the mantis arm is a car, and I can't measure it. I am the third young master of the Xiang family in Liuyun City, I have no family inheritance, and I will be a mess all my life, waiting for my family to arrange everything, and I will live and die. ”

Long Yu was a little disappointed with Xiang Jun's self-abandonment, shook his head and said: "Everyone's life is not constant at birth, everyone has the right to pursue the wonderful legend of their own life, self-abandonment is the saddest ending, your vision is only limited to the narrow sky of Liuyun City, but you can't put it in the vast cloud capital domain, which allows you to soar more freely, this is not the mentality of a pursuit of the strongest martial artist." It is not the family that binds you, but your own heart, the wider your heart, the higher your pursuit will be, so do it yourself!"

Long Yu turned around and left, leaving Xiang Jun standing still, muttering to himself.

"Your vision is limited to the narrow sky of Liuyun City, but you can't put it in the vast cloud capital domain, which allows you to soar more freely..."

"It's not the family that binds you, it's your own heart, the wider your heart, the higher your pursuit...."

Xiang Jun challenged Long Yu, but there was no suspense, and everyone looked at the stunned Xiang Jun like a joke, which also made the rather tense atmosphere of the scene a little more relaxed.

"Big brother, is that kid okay?" Yun Yang leaned over and whispered after Long Yu walked back to his position.

"Hey, it's a pity for his qualifications, he has a knot in his heart, and there are infinite possibilities if he unravels it, and if he can't untie it, he is destined to be mediocre all his life. ”

The challenge continued non-stop, the first ten outer disciples all failed, and then ten more outer disciples came out, this time a burly boy walked into the No. 1 ring, of course, it was no longer a farce, not to challenge Long Yu without knowing whether to live or die, but to challenge the weakest Feng Wu of the first team.

When Feng Wu came out of the ranks, Long Yu smiled at her and nodded in encouragement, and Feng Wu also relaxed and smiled confidently.

The petite Feng Wu made a move and was Wan Ye Fei, although the agility and proficiency were a little lacking, but the power of this move was indeed two or three points, the burly boy waved his knife to resist, but he couldn't stop, retreating all the way to the edge of the ring, until he landed on the back and smashed a piece of dust.

The more than 300 outer disciples who were still thinking about their three chances to challenge looked at the No. 1 ring in surprise, in their calculations, it was necessary to choose one person to challenge in the No. 1 ring, but the girl who seemed to be the weakest was to defeat the outer disciple who was the most important in strength, could this ring become a challenger's nightmare?

Most people's conjectures were quickly confirmed, and another challenger was defeated by the Shui Yuan Sheng, who was originally ranked six hundredth, and it was still that move Wan Ye Fei.

In the stands, Shen Yiran and Zhong Yi looked at each other and smiled, it seemed that Long Yu had already taught Wan Ye Fei to the rest of the first squad, although Wan Ye Fei was the second sword of the Qiankun Nine Swords, but the Ten Fallen Leaves Ten Styles were out-and-out road goods, and they naturally had no way to stop them.

"This first squad is going against the sky, I remember that Shui Yuansheng only felt the strength of the four-star spirit realm at that time, and it was only three months before he advanced to the six-star spirit realm, this first team can no longer challenge, from the captain to the team members, it is a one-trick victory, which is too shocking...."

"That's right, don't think about it, the first squad is not within our reach, let's take a closer look at whether the other squads are weak...."

The rest of the challengers were talking, and their eyes were full of fear when they looked at the first team.

Two hours passed, the first to tenth squad guarded the time, the first squad also successfully defended in the first freshman challenge, no one fell to the outer door, compared to the first squad, the other squads were not so lucky, even the second squad of Wu Yaoling had one person picked down, and the other squads also had one or two failures, it seems that there are many disciples in the outer gate who broke out in adversity.

The eleventh to twentieth squads played to defend, and each team still had players who were picked out, and the twenty-first to thirtieth teams were still the same. At the end of the challenge, a total of fifty outer disciples successfully challenged, and it was also a wake-up call for the inner disciples who were in a superior cultivation environment.

However, there were no accidents in the next captain's challenge, the thirty captains were all successful, and the captains of most of the teams had already established their prestige and had strong strength as a guarantee, and the other team members did not make a move at all and continued to choose to be convinced.

At the end of the challenge, everyone in the first team of Long Yu was excited, this time because all the members successfully stayed in the inner gate, each of them was rewarded with 10,000 points, and Long Yu was rewarded with 20,000 points.
