Ten miles southeast of the main peak of Tiancheng, a high mountain stands majestically, the steep and beautiful scenery and the height of the main peak are not lost, so that Fuyun Mountain has the reputation of a small heavenly city.

In normal times, the top of Fuyun Mountain is the place where many sect disciples practice swords, looking up at the mountain peak from Xuanwu City, you can often see the brilliant sword qi and sword light breaking through the clouds and tsunami in the sky, and the splendor of the Sword Sect is all gathered here!

And from today, Fuyun Mountain ushered in the most important event of the year.

Although he had heard of the great name of Fuyun Mountain for a long time, it was the first time for Qin Yun to walk on this high mountain, and he, Lu Liu, and hundreds of Sword Sect disciples walked up the stairs from the bottom of the mountain towards the peak.

The mountain road is crooked, each bluestone staircase is smooth and smooth, the Tiancheng Sword Sect has been established for hundreds of years, I don't know how many disciples have stepped on the peak from here, and finally walked to the vast Kyushu, winning supreme honor and prestige for the sect.

By the time the two of them finally reached the finish line, thousands of disciples had gathered at the top of Fuyun Mountain.

The Floating Cloud Sword Discussion will last for a full ten days, and it will be delayed if there are special circumstances, the first seven days are the battle of swordsmen and swordsmen, and thousands of disciples will compete for three hundred sect places.

The last three days are the five peaks disciples challenge the test, and the five peaks of Jietian, Chasing Clouds, Biyue, Luoxia, and Tingtao send their outstanding disciples to compete with each other to defend the honor of competing for the peak vein.

But the most eye-catching thing is the triennial battle for the position of the Thirty-six Heavenly Gangdi, which is a duel between the most outstanding disciples of the younger generation of the Sword Sect, and it will also be the most exciting battle!

All the major sects who were invited to watch the ceremony were undoubtedly most concerned about the competition for the position of the Thirty-six Heavenly Gangdi. Because the future mainstay and even the head of the Sword Sect may be born in it.

Some sects that are attached to the Heavenly City Sword Sect will select the most promising disciples among the thirty-six Heavenly Gangdi Sects to bet, win over, and even take refuge, while other sects can also get a glimpse of the inherent strength of the Sword Sect from the Floating Cloud Sword Meeting.

The Amagi Sword Sect has never been afraid to openly display the power that represents its future, which is the unique spirit of the Kyushu Great Sect. They are not afraid of any challenge.

In the morning, the clouds around the summit have not yet dispersed, and the rising sun leaps above the sea of clouds, casting thousands of golden rays onto the rolling and undulating clouds.

It's just that not many of the Sword Sect disciples went to watch the scenery, they sat down in the pre-demarcated area, waiting for the start of the sword test by lot.

All the disciples who were eligible to participate in the competition for the quota had solemn expressions, and they were able to pass the first round of assessment. The strength will not be very weak, and the formal competition will definitely be more fierce and cruel.

There are a total of six sword platforms on the top of Fuyun Mountain, and five small sword test platforms are evenly distributed around, guarding the Great Discussion Sword Platform in the center from afar. If you look down from the sky, it is a huge petal in full bloom.

In addition to the central Dalun Sword Table, the five sword test platforms are jointly managed by a deacon of the Sword Sect and two sword masters, the deacon is responsible for drawing lots and ranking by lot, and the sword master is responsible for arbitrating the winner or loser.

In addition, next to each sword testing platform, there were sect qi refiners and Huagang-level elders sitting in charge, and the former was responsible for treating disciples who were injured in the competition. The latter is to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the competition.

According to the rules of the Sword Sect, disciples who participate in the competition for the position of swordsman and sword master cannot borrow external objects to help in battle, such as armor and inner armor, elixir talismans, hidden weapon poisons, and so on. However, there is no limit to the level of the weapon.

The latter seemed very unfair, and it was entirely possible for a weaker disciple to defeat an opponent who was stronger than himself but did not have a good sword with a divine weapon.

However, the reasons for the formation of this provision are more complex. First of all, in the Heavenly City Sword Sect, the sword is regarded as the second life of the sword cultivator. The grade of the sword greatly affects the strength of the sword cultivator.

The Heavenly City Sword Sect is a large sect, and the pattern of five vices and one master has been formed for a long time, and each peak has a different sword vein and sword technique inheritance, and for thousands of years, talents have bloomed in large numbers, which has had a huge impact on the sword cultivation of the entire continent.

However, it is precisely because there are many schools within the sect, such as the Xianjian Stream, which focuses on swordsmanship, the Powerful Sword Stream, which pays attention to the sword with qi, and the Instrument Cultivation Stream, which relies on divine weapons and sharp weapons, which has formed many disputes and infighting.

If the same weapon must be used for the restriction, then it must be the most unfair for the weapon cultivation stream, so out of balance considerations, the sect stipulates that standard weapons must be used in the first round of sword tests, and the subsequent floating cloud sword is not limited.

The sword test platform to which Qin Yun belonged was located in the southeast corner of the mountaintop, where there were as many as three or four hundred Sword Sect disciples sitting around the competition battlefield for the number of middle-grade swordsmen, all of whom had passed the first round of assessment like him.

There are five sword test platforms, two competing for the lower grade swordsman position, two competing for the middle grade swordsman position, and one is reserved for the upper grade swordsman, and the total number of places for the third grade swordsman is only three hundred!

This means that the three or four hundred disciples around this sword testing platform will compete for a mere fifty places!

No one talked and laughed with each other, and everyone's eyes were focused on the sword testing platform.

The competition for the swordsman position is based on a lottery elimination system, and the deacon of the Sword Sect draws two people to face off, and the winner leaves the loser to eliminate, so that after several rounds of competition, the final fifty winners are determined.

This kind of competition is very cruel, and some disciples who participate in the competition are stronger than most people, but they are unlucky to meet stronger opponents than him in the first round, and they also have to be ruthlessly eliminated.

There are also some unlucky opponents, and the opponents who have come down in a few rounds are not very strong, but there are basically very few such ones.

The swordsmen and sword masters of the Heavenly City Sword Sect are well-known golden signboards in the entire vast Kyushu!

A middle-aged deacon in a white robe and a long beard walked to the sword test platform, he glanced at the audience with a sharp gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Disciples, today's sword competition has officially begun, I hope everyone will uphold the rules and intentions of the sect, and the duel will be up to the point, if there is a situation of deliberately mutilating the same door, it will be severely punished!"

As the so-called sword has no eyes, even if there is a sect swordsman present to arbitrate, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be casualties in the fierce battle, of course, if one side is victorious, it is not allowed by the rules of the sect.

The disciples were all in awe!

The middle-aged deacon nodded, and suddenly raised his right hand towards the empty claw under the stage, only to see that he was ten feet away, and the huge golden bottle placed on the ground shook suddenly, and immediately dozens of iron sticks flew up in the air!

Hundreds of long iron sticks were inserted into this half-human-tall gold bottle, each with the names of the disciples participating in the competition, which were drawn by the deacons of the sect.

I saw that the middle-aged deacon's right hand opened and closed twice, and two of the iron sticks that flew up from the mouth of the bottle were immediately captured in his hand by volley, while the rest fell back into the golden bottle one after another.

Such a subtle method cannot be done without innate strength.

The middle-aged deacon glanced at the iron stick in his hand, and shouted in a deep voice: "The first scene, Mo Fan vs. Yan Yunwu!"

On the other four sword test platforms, a similar situation is also being staged, and the Floating Cloud Sword Discussion Conference officially kicked off!

The two disciples whose names were called immediately walked up to the sword testing platform.

To everyone's surprise, Mo Fan, who participated in the first round of the duel, was a handsome young man, while his opponent Yan Yunwu was a woman in red with a big sword on her back.

Looking at the entire vast Kyushu, there have always been more men and fewer women in sword cultivation, and female swordsmen who use big swords and heavy weapons are even rarer.

This woman in red, Yan Yunwu, has a vigorous body, and her appearance is not outstanding, but her eyebrows are full of heroic spirit, and the wide-bladed sword hanging on her back is more than five feet long, which makes people feel frightened.

In contrast, Mo Fan was even more weak, and he actually used a thin sword that was three points narrower than the long sword.

The two stood still on the two corners opposite each other, more than thirty paces away from each other.

Bite!

An arbitrator swordsman rang the bronze bell placed next to the golden vase, and the two disciples on the stage drew their weapons at the same time.

Yan Yunwu, who was holding the big sword, did not attack immediately, she looked at the opponent not far away, and a mocking smile appeared on her face: "Mo Niangzi, hurry up and admit defeat and don't waste time, you are not my opponent!"

Her voice clearly reached the ears of everyone present, domineering and arrogant and full of confidence.

The two obviously knew each other, but the title of Mo Niangzi sounded extremely weird, and Mo Fan's face suddenly turned red, and he was actually a little beautiful.

He gritted his teeth without saying a word, and suddenly unfolded his body to attack Yan Yunwu, and the light sword quickly brought up an awe-inspiring sword qi to attack the opponent's vital point, and the speed was as fast as the wind!

Qin Yun, who was watching the battle from the audience, shook his head secretly, this Yan Yunwu was obviously deliberately provoking the opponent and inducing Mo Fan to take the initiative to attack, and he must have made a move tactically with confidence.

Mo Fan's shot seemed to be sharp and fast, but he was too impatient due to lack of momentum, and he was afraid that he had already fallen into the opponent's urn.

The current Qin Yun, with the rapid growth of his own strength and the continuous accumulation of combat experience, has become more and more clever and sharp, and his ability to grasp and perceive the battle situation as a bystander has also been greatly improved.

Sure enough, I saw Yan Yunwu smile coldly, and made a decisive move before the opponent's sword qi arrived, and the big sword that revealed the red sword slashed straight down, and had a tough battle with the opponent!

Boom!

The two different qi forces collided violently and made a low roar, Mo Fanqing's sword qi was instantly shattered and annihilated, the thin sword in his hand bowed backwards and rebounded, and the whole person involuntarily took a few steps back.

There is no doubt that in the duel of the first move, Mo Fan fell behind.

In fact, he uses a thin sword, and his cultivation is a wood-based technique known for his speed and sharpness, and he is the most taboo against the enemy, not to mention that the opponent is still holding a big sword, and it is inevitable that he will suffer losses from the enemy's strength with his weakness.

Yan Yunwu understood this, and Qin Yun could see that the many Sword Sect disciples present could see it at a glance.

Only Mo Fan was in a daze, and he was in the game without knowing it!rq
