Elder Aotian and Tian took out all the scale armor and magic crystal nuclei of the Blazing Demon Viper, and the other disciples also took out the energy crystals from the bodies of the two sword-horned monitor lizards that were bitten to death by the Blazing Demon Viper.

"Aotian, you killed these two Blazing Demon Vipers, and after you go back, I will convert the Blazing Demon Viper's Demon Crystal Core and Scale Armor into contribution points for you!" Elder Tian said to Aotian after putting the scale armor and the magic crystal nucleus of the Blazing Demon Viper into the storage ring.

"Thank you, Elder, but there is also the merit of the elder for killing this Blazing Demon Viper, so the disciple can't monopolize this contribution value, and the disciple is not short of contribution points, so if the elder doesn't mind, he will divide the converted contribution value equally among everyone!" Aotian arched his hand slightly and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Elder Tian was stunned, and then looked at Aotian with approval and nodded, and couldn't help but secretly admire Aotian's generosity.

If it were Wu Ze, he would definitely be eager to take all the credit and benefits on himself, where would he think of others.

"Hehe, since that's the case, then do as you say!" Elder Tian smiled slightly and said.

In the next few days, everyone hunted more than a dozen sword-horned monitor lizards in the desert, and also obtained a lot of energy crystals, but because the time for the return trip with Elder Du and the others was approaching, Elder Tian took everyone to start the return journey.

On the way back, everyone did not encounter any more dangers, and they encountered several sword-horned monitor lizards that should have just returned from the depths of the desert, and obtained a lot of energy crystals from their bodies.

On this day, when Aotian and the others finally followed Elder Tian back to the place where they had been separated from Elder Du and the others, they saw that the Great Elder and the others were already waiting there.

Judging by the appearance of those people, the trip should have gone smoothly and without encountering any danger.

After the two teams converged, Elder Tian and Elder Du greeted each other briefly, and immediately took the disciples of the two teams and headed towards the desert.

"Senior Brother Aotian, Senior Sister Zhirui, have you had a smooth trip?" Zheng Tiansong came to Aotian's side and asked with a smile.

"Well, it's going well, Senior Brother Zheng hasn't encountered any danger, right?" Aotian didn't mention the matter of the Blazing Demon Viper, after all, it wasn't a danger to him.

"We didn't encounter any danger, but we hunted fewer sword-horned monitor lizards than before!" Zheng Tiansong said with a slight smile.

Due to the strong wind and sand around them, Aotian and Zheng Tiansong also simply said a few words and stopped talking, and everyone quietly followed Elder Tian and Elder Du, and quickly walked towards the desert.

......

Ice Heart Sect, Ice Sword Branch, in Wu Ze's room.

"Big brother, is it really up to you to arrange the Inner Sect selection competition this time?" Listening to his eldest brother Wu Tao's words, Wu Ze suddenly widened his eyes, sat up straight, looked at Wu Tao on the chair on the side with some surprise, and said.

Wu Tao is a man in his early thirties, his appearance is quite handsome, somewhat similar to Wu Ze, and there is also a sense of cold arrogance between his eyebrows.

"Well, that's right, this session should have been presided over by my master, Elder Tianyi, but his old man didn't want to worry about it, so it was left to me and my second senior brother to preside, after I came to visit you today, I will start working on the matter of the Inner Sect Selection Competition!" Wu Tao nodded and said with a serious expression.

"Hahaha, that's great!" Wu Ze jumped up from his chair excitedly and cheered.

"Why are you so happy, even if you don't host it, you're still afraid that you won't be able to pass this district selection competition?" Wu Tao asked with a surprised face.

"I'm not afraid that I won't be able to pass the Inner Sect Trials, I'm glad that Big Brother will preside over the Inner Sect Trials this time!" The excitement on Wu Ze's face gradually turned into a sinister sneer, and he immediately turned his head to look at Wu Tao, arched his hand and said, "Big brother, I have one thing to ask you, you must help me with this!"

"What's the matter?" Wu Tao asked with a frown.

"Help me deal with one, you must not let this person pass the Inner Sect Selection Competition, it is best to let him become a waste completely!" Wu Ze's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a cold voice.

"Who is the person who makes you so hateful? Moreover, there are still disciples in the outer sect that you can't deal with?" Wu Tao asked in surprise.

"Yes, there is a kid named Aotian, he has just entered our sect not long ago, but his strength is stronger than me, and this person is extremely arrogant, I heard that I am the first disciple of the outer sect, so he asked me for trouble, not only blatantly robbed me of Zhirui's senior sister, but also injured me in public, so that I suffered a great humiliation, big brother, this time you must vent your evil anger for me!" Wu Ze looked at his eldest brother with a face full of grievances, and pleaded.

Hearing Wu Ze's words, Wu Tao did not doubt whether he was adding fuel and vinegar and making things up in his words, but his brows furrowed even tighter, and his eyes flashed with coldness: "It is even stronger than you, it seems that it is really necessary to get rid of him, otherwise it will be a disaster to let him enter the inner sect!"

Hearing Wu Tao's words, Wu Ze was overjoyed, but the smile on his face looked extremely cold and hideous, and his eyes were full of viciousness.

"That's right, big brother, this person must be eliminated!" Wu Ze nodded and replied.

"Well, don't worry!" Wu Tao also showed a cold look on his face, and said in a deep voice.

......

Aotian and the others successfully returned to the Ice Heart Sect five days before the start of the Inner Sect Selection Tournament and completed this mission, and Aotian finally obtained the qualification to participate in the Inner Sect Selection Competition.

After five days of waiting, Aotian and all the disciples of the outer sect who were preparing to participate in the competition finally ushered in the day of the inner sect selection competition.

After breakfast that day, Aotian, Zhou Zhirui, and all the participating disciples of the four branches gathered on Chengtian Square, and then under the leadership of the chief elders of each branch, they set off for the Valley of Trials.

The Valley of Trials was in a mountain range not far north of the Ice Heart Sect, so everyone followed a few of the chief elders of the Courtyard and soon came to the entrance of the Valley of Trials.

At this moment, more than a dozen people had gathered at the entrance of the Valley of Trials, and it was obvious that those people were not dressed by people from other sects.

Seeing several chief elders of the outer sect coming over, two men in their thirties walked over, one of the older men arched his hand and said respectfully: "Senior Chang Heng, I have seen a few elders!"

"Junior Wu Tao, I've seen a few elders!" another man also clenched his fists and said respectfully.

This person is Wu Ze's eldest brother - Wu Tao.

"Didn't Elder Tianyi come?" the Chief Elder of the Ice Sword Branch asked after glancing around slightly.

"Master, the old man wants me and my junior brother to have a bit of training, so he handed over the affairs of this Inner Sect Selection Contest to me and my junior brother, but a few elders can rest assured that I have assisted Master in presiding over the Inner Sect Selection Competition before, and there will definitely be no mistakes!" The man named Chang Heng looked serious and said with his fists clenched.

"Well, then it's hard for two!" the Chief Elder of the Ice Sword Branch nodded and said in a deep voice.

In fact, there is nothing that the elders can't rest assured, after all, there are no complicated processes and rules in this selection competition, as long as they make arrangements for the supervisors in the arena to ensure that there are no illegal battles between the participating disciples.

Hearing the conversation between the Chief Elder of the Ice Sword Branch and Chang Heng, there was a slight commotion among the disciples of the Outer Sect, and there was a faint low buzz of discussion.

"That Wu Tao, could it be Wu Ze's brother?"

"You can see the looks, and the eyes that are also nobody!"

"I really didn't expect that he would be accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Tianyi!"

"Yes, it seems that he came to participate in presiding over this year's Inner Sect Trials, it's not that simple, it is estimated that this time it is likely to be related to Aotian!"

"You're saying he's going to deal with Aotian for Wu Ze!"

"Then don't you need to say, Aotian has offended Wu Ze, and Wu Ze's kind of person who will repay his eyes will endure it? I heard that Wu Tao is also the kind of person who will repay him, and he is also extremely protective of his shortcomings, so it is definitely not normal for him to participate in this inner sect selection competition!"

"It makes sense, it seems that Aotian may be more auspicious this time!" Several disciples whispered, and couldn't help but worry about Aotian's future.

In the crowd, Wu Ze's cold gaze suddenly turned to Aotian behind him, revealing a provocative look, and the corners of his mouth also hooked up a smile.

"Hmph, Aotian, wait and see, this time you will regret being my enemy, dare to provoke Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will let you enter vertically and come out horizontally this time!" Wu Ze said viciously in his heart.

Wu Ze's gaze, Aotian naturally noticed it, but he just glanced at it expressionlessly, and ignored Wu Ze's provocative eyes.

"I didn't expect Wu Tao to participate in the hosting of this Inner Sect Trial!" Zhou Zhirui saw that Wu Tao actually participated in the hosting of this Inner Sect Trial, her face couldn't help but change slightly, and she was also worried about Aotian in her heart, she immediately frowned slightly, turned her head to look at Aotian beside her with a serious face, and said in a low voice, "Aotian, you have to be careful in this Inner Sect Trial! That Wu Tao is Wu Ze's eldest brother, with Wu Ze's character, I'm afraid he will definitely let his brother deal with you and secretly treat you badly, and I heard that Wu Tao is not a good person!" ”

"Don't worry, Zhirui, it'll be fine!" Aotian smiled slightly and said confidently.

But although he said this, he was somewhat worried and vigilant in his heart, this Inner Sect Selection Tournament was extremely important to him, and he didn't want to miss this excellent opportunity, so he couldn't afford to miss a little.

Although he has a lot of confidence in his own strength, he doesn't dare to take it lightly, after all, he is in the light, the enemy is in the dark, and he doesn't know what kind of conspiracy awaits him, so he will inevitably be a little worried in his heart.

However, in order not to worry Zhou Zhirui, he could only pretend to be fearless at this time, and regarded it as a way to encourage himself.

"No matter what, I have to pass this trial smoothly!" Aotian secretly clenched his fists, and a sharp cold glint flashed in his eyes.
