Chapter 24: The Peak
"The 530th Ascendant, Zhang Yi"
"The five hundred and thirty-first ascendant, Xie Minghong..."
As Zhang Yi stepped on the last stone step, an old man who had cultivated in the Enlightenment Realm shouted Zhang Yi's name, and they came to the peak smoothly, and the spiritual pressure disappeared~
The peak is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the huge square is in this cloud and mist, Xie Minghong seems to feel that he has come to a fairyland, and the square is paved with huge stones, which looks simple and atmospheric
Zhang Yi looked around the square, hundreds of disciples of the outer sect stood in the square in disorder, and in the distant stands, there were nearly 100 people sitting in it, these people were gorgeously dressed, all of them were high-ranking people in the sect...
There was a middle-aged man sitting at the top of the square, this man Zhang Yi had not seen before, but according to the location, it was not difficult to see that this should be the chief of the housekeeping line
A little further down, there are three old men sitting respectively, namely the three elders of the outer gate, internal affairs, law enforcement, and transmission of gong...
On the left side, at the same height as the three elders, sat Yin Xinpeng, the peak master of Zhikun Peak, and on the right side sat Xiao Ningxue, the peak master of Lingxu Peak, who was familiar to Zhang Yi, and there was a woman squeezed into the same wide chair as him...
At a lower height, there are several weights of the Longding Gate, some of whom look extremely young, and some of whom are a little old
And in some of the places below, there are some younger disciples sitting, He Yuanxiang is also among them, and the one standing behind him is Lu Xin...
After looking around for a week, Zhang Yi's eyes returned to Xiao Ningxue's body, only to see her beautiful face bowing her head slightly, and a thick and simple book on the table, she stared intently at the contents of the book, as if no matter what happened, it had nothing to do with it...
"Well, weren't you interested in Cher just now? How do you look at the book..."
Xiao Ning Xue Nono replied, "Uh... If you don't feel tired after reading for a long time, read a book to relieve your fatigue..."
"Look, the disciple who just came up actually cultivated to have the Eightfold Realm of Foundation Building, but I didn't expect the cultivation of the Eightfold Realm of Foundation Building to climb up so late..."
"Oh, is it? That's slow..."
More than a dozen disciples came up one after another, and after a while, someone announced:
"According to the investigation, there are no more disciples who continue to climb on the mountainside, in order not to waste everyone's time, the first round of the competition will end early, and the disciples who have passed the assessment will be arranged to rest according to the cultivation level!"
Seeing that there were hundreds fewer disciples than in previous years, everyone immediately discussed...
"There are less than 600 disciples coming up this year, which is the least in the past ten years! It seems that our Longding Gate is not as good as a year."
"Alas, I heard that there is a disciple of the Sixfold Realm of Foundation Building, who has been suppressed by spiritual pressure~ You are looking at the people who have cultivated to only the Triple Realm of Foundation Building..."
"This spirit array that has been circulating for thousands of years can't be broken, right? Such an excellent disciple was ostracized..."
Since the first round is over, there are no projects today, and everyone is withdrawing one after another
Wen Hui asked slowly, "Xue'er, will we come back tomorrow?" ”
Xiao Ningxue did not hesitate and said categorically: "Come on, why don't you come?" ”
Seeing Wen Hui looking at her with surprised eyes, Xiao Ningxue's cheeks were slightly red and said:
"Hmm... It's boring to be idle anyway, so it's better to come and watch the game..."
Zhang Yi was assigned to a double room, he didn't care, he went directly to the assigned room, and continued to meditate and cultivate, he only felt that in the past two days, he might be about to break through!
"It's you, that Zhang What's easy..."
The person who came was Guo Ying, who was working with Zhang Yi in the Internal Affairs Hall a month ago
Zhang Yi slowly opened his eyes and frowned slightly
"It's you, that Tao Heying!"
This person is short and fat, so Zhang Yi remembers the appearance of this person, but he can't remember the name
"I am Guo Ying, who ranks 34th on the new wind list, and I am nicknamed 'Green Eagle God Claw Hand'"
Zhang Yi said slowly: "Are you still fighting?" If you don't beat me, I'm going to cultivate..."
"Hmph, I was just trying your skills a little bit in the Internal Affairs Hall at that time, boy, you have arrogant capital, and I'll see you on the field tomorrow..."
Zhang Yi thought to himself, this dwarf winter melon is quite honest, and when he saw that he didn't mean to do anything, he continued to close his eyes and ignore it...
Guo Ying saw that Zhang Yi was so diligent, he was about to compete and didn't have a good rest, but he was still practicing, and secretly admired in his heart, "Rising star!" The juniors are terrible..."
So he took the initiative to accost: "Zhang Yi, it shouldn't be difficult to get the top forty with your ability... Maybe even with me! ”
Zhang Yi was disturbed by one of them, there was no way to cultivate well, he opened his eyes helplessly, and said with a smile: "You are quite confident in your strength!" ”
Guo Ying smiled disdainfully: "Hmph, this year I am bound to break through to the top thirty, and I must join the Chuan Gong Pulse when the time comes!" ”
Then he asked, "If you have thirty, you will join that lineage?" ”
Zhang Yi was stunned when he heard this, recalled Xiao Ningxue's words, and secretly had an answer in his heart, and said with a smile:
"Oh? I can't believe I can get in the top 30..."
Guo Ying shook his head after hearing this, and laughed: "Hahaha... You kid looks very arrogant, and after a little fight with you, I know that you're actually a coward..."
Zhang Yi didn't pay attention to it, but smiled reluctantly
Seeing Zhang Yi smile awkwardly, Guo Ying became interested and said:
"In this way, you can join the lineage of transmission with me, I will protect you, and you don't have to be afraid in the future..."
Zhang Yi smiled in surprise: "With your strength? How can I protect myself when I meet an inner disciple? ”
Guo Ying laughed unconsciously when she heard this: "Hahaha... You fool, I dare to say this, naturally I have a reason."
Seeing Zhang Yi's expressionlessness, Guo Ying continued: "I won't tell you, my cousin Guo Xiong has long been an inner disciple of the lineage of Gong Chuan, and he has been reused by the core disciples, I want to see who else is someone I Guo Ying can't provoke..."
Regarding Guo Ying's ignorance, Zhang Yi shook his head helplessly: "Hehe, I'll be watching when the time comes..."
In this way, this Guo Ying was like a chatterbox, and he didn't let Zhang Yi have time to cultivate at all
The two talked until late at night...
Early in the morning, when Zhang Yi was still asleep, someone knocked on the door, and it was Xie Minghong
It was Guo Ying who opened the door: "Huh? How are you? ”
Guo Ying didn't expect that this person was just the person he rescued at random at that time, and he was tracked here?
Xie Minghong was stunned, he didn't expect that Zhang Yi, this kid, was actually in the same bedroom as this person, but he didn't dare to doubt Xie Minghong immediately thanked him: "Senior brother, thank you for saving your life yesterday..."
Guo Ying laughed: "Juniors don't have to take it to heart, I'm used to being chivalrous..."
Xie Minghong smiled awkwardly, "I'm here to find Zhang Yi..."
Zhang Yi's voice happened to come from inside: "Dwarf winter melon, but someone came to me?" ”
Guo Ying's face sank and he said coldly: "Cut, I'll go out first..."
Seeing Xie Minghong, Zhang Yi asked slowly, "Brother Xie, why did you come to me so early?" ”
Xie Minghong said solemnly: "My group, I have already received the reward and are ready to give up the next game, go down the mountain, I am here to tell you, be careful of a person with an axe on his back, he is He Yuanxiang's person, I am afraid that he will take this opportunity to kill you..."
Zhang Yi's eyes flashed with murder, and he smiled: "Thank you for the reminder from my eldest brother... I'll be careful! ”
After Xie Minghong left, Zhang Yi's mood couldn't calm down for a long time, he was originally diluted a little bit of hatred by Xiao Ningxue's tenderness, but at this time, it suddenly burned again, these two people were really pressing step by step, and his eyes were extremely cold at this moment
"He Yuanxiang and Lu Xin, one day you two will be slowly tortured to death by me..."
