After the third round of the competition, Wei Buxi, who was on top of the huge brick, said a few words of encouragement to the disciples loudly, and then announced that the final battle would be held in five days according to the previous practice.

The disciples had expected this, and after Wei Buxi's lecture was finished, they scattered one after another.

However, in the process of returning to their courtyard, a group of disciples talked about the disciples who performed brilliantly and strongly in this small competition.

From time to time, I will hear the word "Zhao Gui" from the mouths of some disciples.

On the way back, Zhao Qian, who was following Qin Bin, was stunned for a long time after knowing that Zhao Gui had also entered the top forty......

Zhao Gui, who returned to the room, briefly dealt with the injuries on his arms and calves, then closed the door, temporarily let everything not be disturbed, and lay on the bed and fell asleep.

In the early morning of the second day, Zhao Gui, who was still asleep, was woken up by the hustle and bustle outside.

Zhao Gui pushed the door and was taken aback.

I saw that there were more than ten people guarding the courtyard, and except for a few disciples who entered together, most of them he didn't know at all.

However, these people who came to visit Zhao Gui early were all smiling, and the tone of greeting was extremely cordial, as if they were friends a long time ago.

Zhao Gui was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the reason why these people were so enthusiastic must be related to Xiaobi, although he felt irritable and impatient in his heart, he still welcomed these people into the house with a smile.

All of a sudden, this once extremely cold courtyard suddenly became lively.

After two hours, Zhao Gui sent all these people out.

Zhao Gui, who returned to the house, suddenly let out a long sigh.

In the mortal world, there is a saying that "no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains", and in the world of cultivating immortals, it is the same.

Mortals eat whole grains, relying on personal connections, ability and means.

Although immortal cultivators eat the aura of heaven and earth, they also have friends, relatives, and teachers, and their status depends more on their strength.

Essentially, there is no difference between the two.

Thinking of these in his heart, Zhao Gui really sighed at the cold state of the world for a while, and then he barely calmed down.

Zhao Gui glanced at the shadows of the trees outside the courtyard, and found that Fang Cai's vanity and grievances had wasted so much time, and he felt slightly annoyed in his heart.

"It's better to avoid this kind of ineffective interaction as much as possible", Zhao Gui muttered to himself, and the kind of formation that he had seen in the courtyard of the man surnamed Quan suddenly appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help but move in his heart.

"If that kind of formation is placed in the courtyard, not only can you cultivate with peace of mind, but also ensure privacy, but it is just ...... There are too many spirit stones needed to arrange the formation, but if the sect sends down Xiaobi's reward, plus the existing spirit stones on my body, it should be more than enough to arrange a set of formations," Zhao Gui's eyes flashed, and he kept thinking about it in his heart, and finally made a decision after a while.

Zhao Gui didn't go out immediately, but frowned and thought about other things.

Through this small competition, he has a clearer positioning of his own strength, and at the same time, he has deep doubts about his qualifications.

With the qualifications of the three spirit veins, his cultivation speed is comparable to that of the disciples of the six spirit veins, and his talent for cultivating the Five Elements Spell is even more terrifying, and the speed of casting the spell is actually faster than others......

All this was a good thing, but after Zhao Gui combined the spiritual power in his body with the fact that it would dissipate inexplicably, the surprise in his heart was suddenly replaced by uneasiness.

What made him even more uneasy was that in Xiaobi, who did the indifferent and calm strange voice come from?

In Zhao Gui's heart, there were all the elder-level figures he knew, but he still had no clue about the person who transmitted the voice to him.

"Forget it, let's do what is in front of you," Zhao Gui thought in his heart, took out a blue-black ball with cracks on the surface from his cuff, and looked at it carefully.

This round ball is the weir spirit ball, and in the second small game, Zhao Gui triggered the defensive power of this ball, which blocked the blow of the blood-colored short sword.

It is precisely because of this that the cracks on the surface of this weir spirit ball are more dense.

Judging by its appearance, this weir spirit ball can only be used eight or nine times at most.

Thinking back to the two competitions in the small competition, and summarizing the gains and losses in the competition, Zhao Gui fell into silence.

"The most important thing at the moment is to practice the other Five Elements Techniques to the fullest, so that you can be regarded as having the power of self-preservation, in addition, you need to find a way to get a few talismans, otherwise, it is still very dangerous to encounter an opponent with a rich fortune......", Zhao Gui's eyes flickered, and the plan in his heart gradually became clear.

……

……

Two days later, Zhao Gui, who had recovered from his injuries, appeared in front of the deacon hall, staring at the list hanging in the most eye-catching position of the deacon hall with a golden light.

I saw that on this list, the names of the top forty disciples of Xiaobi were written this time.

However, after ten breaths, Zhao Gui saw his name, which also appeared on the list, and the red light flickered in the golden light, shining brightly.

At the bottom of the list, there were dozens of disciples, pointing with envy on their fronts, and they kept saying something.

Zhao Gui only stayed in front of this list for a moment, and then entered the deacon hall without saying a word.

When he came to the deacon hall this time, Zhao Gui planned to understand the price of the formation and talismans, so that he knew it in his heart.

An hour later, Zhao Gui walked out of the deacon hall with a depressed face.

The price of the talisman has made Zhao Gui smack.

As for the formation, it is only the kind of formation that only has the effect of peeping, and the price is so high, it is not under the talisman, not to mention the kind of formation that has the functions of trapping the enemy and attacking, and the worst one needs more than five hundred spirit stones!

For the first time, Zhao Gui felt that he was so poor, and it was also the first time that he had a strong desire for spirit stones.

Zhao Gui glanced back at the deacon hall, and was about to leave, when he happened to see Zhao Qian, who was standing under the golden list, beside Zhao Qian, Qin Bin was pointing to his name on the gold list arrogantly, and whispered something to Zhao Qian.

Zhao Gui glanced at Zhao Qian deeply and drove away.

When Zhao Gui returned to his courtyard, he did not immediately push the door in, but his expression moved slightly, and his body turned and walked in the other direction.

After half a meal, Zhao Gui appeared in front of an equally small courtyard, and after a little hesitation, pushed open the door of this courtyard.

Zhao has returned here several times, and he is not very familiar, but he is by no means unfamiliar.

This is where Guo Qingsong once lived.

However, at this moment, this young man with a persimmon round face and a penchant for making friends has been dead for several days.

As a disciple of the Three Spirit Veins with inferior qualifications, even though Guo Qingsong was very lively during his lifetime, his death can be said to have not even made a small splash.

Guo Qingsong's so-called friends may have some sadness at that time, but after a long time, I am afraid that they will forget about it completely.

As for the sect, they will not remember that there was a disciple of Guo Qingsong.

Surrounded by the demon clan, human life always seems extremely cheap.

This has been the case for more than 100 years.
