Chapter 62: The Draw of Lots (I)
Just when the people around him were talking enthusiastically about why Xiaobi had such a rich reward this time, Li Qing noticed that hundreds of deacons and disciples of the Sword Execution Hall were lining up in a neat line to enter the martial arts arena, and then evenly distributed around dozens of rings.
"Silence!" At this moment, Li Qing heard a full voice coming from the high platform on the side of the martial arts arena.
The sound was not loud, but it was like a bell ringing throughout the martial arts arena.
Hearing this, all the disciples turned their eyes to the high platform, and it was Elder Liang Kuan, one of the three Jindan elders, who spoke.
The originally noisy martial arts arena also became silent at this moment, and everyone in the martial arts arena looked at Liang Kuan.
Knowing that the next step was to find out, everyone pricked up their ears and listened.
"Today is my Changfeng Sword Sect's annual Outer Door Competition, but I believe everyone has noticed that this time the rewards of the Outer Gate Comparison are far more generous than in the past.
The reason is very simple, the sect intends to cultivate a group of disciples to grow up as soon as possible.
That's why this time there will be such a reward.
The rewards are only part of it, and those who rank in the top 100 in this small competition will get an additional chance to test in addition to the rewards you see. As long as the disciples who perform well in the trials can not only obtain the secret books of the exercises, the treasures of the magic weapons, but also the Zhuji Dan. Liang Kuan looked around on the high platform and said lightly.
And as soon as he spoke, the entire martial arts arena completely fell into a deathly silence.
These outer disciples accurately captured an important message, Tsukidan, and their eyes became fiery one by one.
Especially the eighth or ninth layer of Qi cultivation, the outer disciples who are not far from their own breakthrough are even more so. The eyes of those who look around them subconsciously regard them as potential competitors.
As for those disciples who are still some distance away from building the foundation, they are bitter and envious, who would have thought that this time Xiaobi would have such a rich reward.
However, with their current strength, it was difficult to obtain a good ranking, so they were all a little envious of the good fortune of those disciples who practiced qi at the eighth and ninth levels.
After all, it was Zhuji Dan, and he couldn't say that he would be able to break through the foundation building period and become an inner disciple in one fell swoop.
However, the opportunity was in front of them, but they could only watch.
For these outer disciples, the sect gives them a lot of cultivation resources every year, and they don't know how much better than those who are wandering outside.
Magic weapon treasures, exercise cheats, and various pills will be distributed to the sect, and if you feel that it is insufficient, you can also receive the sect task in exchange for meritorious service, and when you accumulate a suitable meritorious service, you can exchange it in the general affairs hall.
But only this Tsukidan is the most difficult to obtain, because it takes 100,000 merits to exchange for a Tsukidan.
Moreover, the general affairs hall will only take out twenty pills of Tsukidan every year, which is on a first-come, first-served basis.
100,000 meritorious deeds cannot be accumulated at all without going back and forth for several years or even more than ten years, and don't dislike it.
The Tsukidan in the major markets is also hard to find, because people who have the ability to refine the Tsukidan or obtain the Tsukidan from other sources generally don't take it out and sell it.
It's about cultivating his own people, and there are very few Tsukidans who can be sold in the market.
Therefore, each Zhuji Dan will auction tens of thousands of spirit stones, and this number is something that ordinary Qi cultivation disciples can get.
However, Liang Kuan didn't care about the reactions of these outer disciples, and continued after a pause. "The rules of the competition are still the same as in previous years, and each opponent is determined by drawing lots, and the winner advances in a group of two.
Except for the talismans, formations, and one-time killing treasures that exceed the level of Qi training, the rest can be used.
But don't kill your fellow disciples, violators will be punished severely! ”
Then Liang Kuan said to the deacon near the ring and the disciples of the Sword Holding Hall. "Keep a record and stop those who break the rules in time."
"Yes!" A group of deacons and disciples of the Sword Holding Hall gave up their orders.
"Okay, let's get started!" Liang sat cross-legged on the high platform with the other two elders with a shake of his robe, but his eyes were always fixed on the rings under the high platform.
"Elder Liang, do you think there will be a few outstanding disciples this time?" The crane-haired old man, who was sitting on the left side of Liang Kuan, asked.
"I don't know!" Liang Kuan glanced at the other party and replied coldly.
"I just hope that the strength of the disciples selected this time will not be too weak, otherwise it will be difficult for them to come out alive even if they enter the secret realm of Qianzhong Mountain." The crane-haired old man seemed to have known that Liang Kuan would react like this, but he said lightly.
It's as if it's talking about an extremely ordinary thing.
The conversation between the two attracted the attention of the only female Elder Jade among the three, she first glanced at the crane-haired old man, and then her gaze fell on Liang Kuan, and her lips opened lightly. "I remember that Elder Liang had a disciple named An Bai, who had won the first place in the outer sect for three consecutive years. I guess there will be no surprise this time! ”
"An Bai is still traveling outside, and he can't rush back to participate in this outer door competition."
"Oh? Here's why. It's okay to say that he couldn't participate in previous years, but this year, Xiaobi is extraordinary, and Elder Liang can't bear to let him give up? Elder Yu, a middle-aged beautiful woman, looked a little surprised.
"An Bai has other opportunities, although I am his master, it is not easy to interfere!" Liang Kuan's face was calm, but he was obviously unwilling to continue on this topic, and instead pointed to the martial arts arena under the high platform. "Okay, don't forget the responsibilities of you and me this time."
Elder Yu nodded when she heard this, and she just asked in passing. It's not really interested in a period of Qi training.
Because of the Tsukidan, it is conceivable that this time the competition between the outer sects will be extremely fierce, and every powerful outer disciple will not give up this opportunity.
Therefore, in order to prevent some disciples from acting excessively, the three of them will be responsible for the entire martial arts arena, so that they can be stopped and rescued in time when an accident occurs.
In the next moment, the three divine consciousnesses belonging to the monks of the Jindan stage were vaguely covered all the rings in the martial arts arena, except for some of the deacons and disciples of the Sword Holding Hall who were cultivating in the foundation building stage, they did not react at all.
"Everyone, come to me in four rows and draw the number plates. We wait according to the number plate to the corresponding ring. A deacon rang the gong in his hand, drawing the eyes of the outer disciples.
Behind it are four large wooden boxes, each with a notch for a hand to slip into.
There is also a deacon behind each wooden box who is in charge of registration, and a disciple of the Sword Hall acts as an overseer to prevent anyone from cheating.
At the deacon's shouting, thousands of outer disciples quickly took action.
And soon there was a long queue in front of the four wooden boxes, and the number plates were drawn one by one.
Then tell the name, and the deacon in charge of recording will copy the corresponding name and the number on the number plate so that it can be used in the competition.
Because Li Qing had noticed these deacons and Sword Hall disciples early on, he had already pulled Bai Wan to squeeze over and rank in the front position as soon as possible, and there were less than ten people before the two of them.
So soon it was the two of them's turn to draw the number plates.
Li Qing stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the wooden box, and when he took it back, there was already an extra piece of bamboo the size of two fingers in his hand.
Li Qing spread out his hand and looked down. The bamboo pieces are written with cinnabar B18.
Because he had understood the rules of the outer door in advance, Li Qing knew that this B18 meant that he would play in the 18th game of Zone B.
The only difference between the two is that the handwriting on the bamboo tablets is written in red cinnabar, while the other party writes in black ink.
Represents both red and black.
"What's your name? Which peak? The deacon next to him held the pen and looked at Li Qingdao.
"Xiao Qianfeng, Li Qing." Li Qing hurriedly replied.
When the deacon heard this, he picked up the pen and wrote, and recorded Li Qing's information in the book in a few clicks.
"Next!"

(Thank you for the precious 1 commuter pass, this is the first time!) Smiling face...... )
