The disciples of the Yuntian Sect were all looked at by Xu Han, except for the man in black, the others did not have the Winged Snake mark on their necks, but this did not mean that there were no companions in the Yuntian Sect, because they did not know whether the Winged Snake Mark would be branded in a fixed position or a non-fixed position. But he can't see everyone's body, so it's very difficult.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Han's eyes flashed with a solemn gaze, "You have to find out the second member of the Winged Serpent Organization." ”

The next day, Ruowei summoned the sect, and the selection competition for the core disciples was held in advance.

For a while, the sect was in a sensation. The selection of core disciples is undoubtedly a major event for the sect, and it is related to the prosperity of the sect.

In the Valley of Grievances, the disciples of the sect came one after another, and the sea of people was vast.

One after another scorching eyes focused on the platform of life and death, since the establishment of the Yuntian Sect, the platform of life and death has existed here, this is in the rules of the sect, the only place where disciples of the same sect are allowed to kill each other, the platform of life and death is on the grievances, and the victory and defeat are decided between life and death.

However, the life and death platform is not only used to resolve personal grievances, but also an important martial arts venue in the various martial arts and selection competitions of the sect.

In order for each disciple to go all out without scruples, the sect's martial arts and trials are allowed to kill. And the Altar of Life and Death is the only place where disciples of the same sect are allowed to get along, and nothing else.

Ruo Wei and the figures of the five elders appeared on the Valley of Grievances, and then, three more people appeared next to them, they were Xu Han, Butterfly Shadow, and Qianshuang.

Xu Han's eyes swept over the grievance stage, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"Today is an important day for my Yuntian Sect to select core disciples, and many people may have questions, according to the rules of the sect, the selection of core disciples will be held in two months, why is it suddenly advanced? As she spoke, Ruo Wei paused, her eyes were sharp, and her eyebrows were full of majesty, "I heard that before the martial arts or the selection competition, there are many disciples who will pinch their days, make some unsightly calculations, or spend money to buy, or plot against the disciples of the same sect, such an atmosphere, I don't want to spread in the Yuntian Sect! So, I discussed with the elders and temporarily advanced this core disciple selection battle, the core disciples are the lifeblood of the sect, and adulteration must not be allowed! I want to see your true strength!"

"Sect Master is wise! Sect Master is wise!"

As soon as the words were finished, the voice of the valley was high, and the crowd was excited.

At this time, Ruo Wei turned her head to look at Xu Han and asked in a low voice, "Sect Master, can you start?"

Xu Han's eyes always looked down and nodded slightly.

"Then, I announce that the core disciple selection battle will start now!"

The rules remain the same as before, and the scene is familiar. Xu Han couldn't help but sigh a little, a few years ago, he was also one of those sect disciples who fought with all their might, but in just a few years, it seemed to him that he had crossed several centuries.

Mu Xue is also a disciple who is qualified to participate in the war, and in order to be promoted to a core disciple, she must endure round after round of tests.

During the whole selection process, Xu Han was not distracted at all, as if he was looking for something.

Although Mu Xue went mad and became a living dead for two years, her strength was still good, and she made it all the way to the quarterfinals.

The eight disciples who reached the top eight were Mu Xue, Zuo Feng, Wu Fan, Qianyun, Qing Qian, Ren Qiuhui, Lei Hao, and Zhong Changliu. Seven of them are inner disciples, and they are ranked very high, Mu Xue was the first in the inner door for two years, and then she went crazy, and her name was erased from the ranking and replaced by Qing Qian. And the remaining person, not only is not ranked, not even an inner disciple, he is an outer disciple, and that person is Lei Hao.

According to the rules of the sect, only inner disciples can participate in the selection of core disciples. But only this time, Ruo Wei let out her words, the outer disciples can also participate in the selection battle of the core disciples, as long as they win the selection battle, they can make an exception to cross the ranks of the inner disciples and be directly promoted to the core disciples.

Of course, the rules are rules, and even if Ruowei changes the rules and allows outer disciples to participate, it stands to reason that it is almost impossible for outer disciples to sign up. If an outer disciple had the strength to win in the core disciple selection battle, he would have been an inner disciple long ago.

Lei Hao, an outer disciple, reached the top eight, which was very unexpected and caused a sensation.

"Is this person really an outer disciple?" Xu Han asked.

Ruowei nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, he only joined the sect this year, I didn't expect his strength to be so strong." ”

The second elder also spoke: "In a month, it will be the selection battle for the inner disciples, even if the sect master does not change the rules, this Lei Hao will be promoted all the way." ”

In the quarterfinals, Mu Xue's first opponent was Zhong Changliu, the third level of the Spirit Realm. Mu Xue is the fourth level of the Spirit Realm, and there is no suspense in winning this one. What was surprising was that Lei Hao actually defeated Wu Fan, who was ranked fourth among the inner disciples, and was promoted to the top four.

At this moment, Lei Hao became the focus of the audience, and everyone was very much looking forward to where this only outer disciple could go.

"It's also the fourth level of the Spirit Realm, I didn't expect Wu Fan to lose to Lei Hao. The Third Elder couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

At this time, the corners of Xu Han's mouth raised slightly: "Spirit Realm Level 4?" Immediately, he shook his head slightly.

In the semi-finals, Mu Xue drew Zuo Feng, who ranked third, and was also at the fourth level of the Spirit Realm, Mu Xue was stronger and advanced to the semi-finals.

On the other hand, Lei Hao was very unlucky, and he actually drew the first place in the inner disciple ranking, and what was even more shocking was that he still defeated his opponent with his own strength and successfully advanced.

There were bursts of chanting on the field, especially those outer disciples who were watching the battle, and even regarded Lei Hao as the representative of their outer gate, revealing adoring and fanatical eyes, shouting Lei Hao's name.

"Sect Master, is this scene familiar?" Ruo Wei suddenly looked at Xu Han, and a meaningful smile appeared in her eyes.

"What do you say?" Xu Han was a little puzzled.

Ruo Wei pursed her lips and smiled: "Once upon a time, the sect master was also like this, he was the focus of the audience and was worshipped. ”

In the semi-finals, Mu Xue and Lei Hao advanced.

The expressions of Xu Han, Dieying, and Qianshuang did not change, and they quietly watched the battle on the platform of life and death.

Mu Xue and Lei Hao were evenly matched in the first half of the game, and everyone was nervous. Suddenly, a trace of killing intent flashed in Lei Hao's eyes, and the thunder aura exploded.

"What is this?" Ruo Wei was slightly startled and stood up with the elders.

Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, and their hearts tightened.

Lei Hao's aura has reached level five!

Could it be that he is not a fourth-level sword cultivator in the Spirit Realm, but a fifth-level Sword Cultivator in the Spirit Realm?!

Rumble!

Just when everyone thought that Mu Xue was going to be finished, Lei Hao's body suddenly trembled violently, blood spit out from his mouth, and he fell off the stage of life and death.

Mu Xue blinked in disbelief and stood on the platform of life and death.

"Mu Xue, win!"

The Great Elder had already announced the result, but there was not a word of cheer in the audience, because everyone was stunned and had no way to accept the result.

Lei Hao's aura that burst out at the end had clearly surpassed Mu Xue and reached level five, how could he be seriously injured in a blink of an eye?

Lei Hao twitched his body, glared at Mu Xue with resentful eyes, and gritted his teeth.

Although Lei Hao was defeated, everyone still felt that there was no problem with him being promoted to a core disciple, and secretly thought about how to stammer.

According to the regulations of the sect, the selection of both inner disciples and core disciples is not based on performance, but on the basis of performance. As long as the table is excellent and the strength reaches the threshold of the core disciple, he can be promoted. On the contrary, even the first place will not be promoted.

Therefore, sometimes there will be a situation where no one is promoted to the core disciple after a core disciple selection battle.

However, the strength of the sect disciples who participated in the selection battle this time was very good, and the four disciples in the top four battle had all reached the fourth level of the spirit realm, and it was very likely that all of them would be promoted.

"Ruowei, leave Lei Hao and Mu Xue behind, and let the others disperse. Xu Han flashed to Ruowei's side and said softly.

Ruowei nodded, got up and walked to the edge of the valley: "Mu Xue and Lei Hao stay, and the others disperse." ”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded.

"Wouldn't it? Only Mu Xue and Lei Hao were promoted to core disciples? Qianyun, Ren Qiuhui, and Qing Qian obviously met the qualifications for promotion to core disciples, right?"

"Oh my God, when did the threshold for core disciples become so high? It seems that I don't have much chance in my life. ”

Ren Qiuhui, Qianyun and the others were also unwilling, but they had no choice but to sigh and leave the Valley of Grievances.

Mu Xue picked up Lei Hao, came to the Valley of Grievances, and saluted Ruowei and the elders: "Meet the sect master, elder." ”

"Hmm. Ruowei nodded, her eyes turning to Xu Han.

Xu Han smiled slightly and said, "Mu Xue, you come to my side." ”

Mu Xue showed a puzzled expression, but she did it anyway.

Seeing this, Lei Hao was a little uneasy, and a trace of something bad welled up in his heart.

Xu Han didn't beat around the bush, and said straight to the point: "Say, what is the purpose of your coming to Yuntian Sect?"

Lei Hao's body trembled, and he hurriedly quibbled: "I'm here to practice martial arts......!"

"Martial arts?" Xu Leng smiled, "Do you know why this core disciple selection battle will be advanced?"

Lei Hao showed a shocked expression, and his body trembled.

"According to the rules of the sect, only inner disciples are allowed to participate in the core disciple selection battle, but I asked the sect master to temporarily change the rules and allow outer disciples to participate, just to find you out. Facing Mu Xue's surprised gaze, Xu Han continued: "I don't know what conspiracy your organization has, but you must have some ulterior motives for hiding your strength and infiltrating the Yuntian Sect. Moreover, it is impossible for ordinary swordsmen to hide their sword cultivation, I think, you should have used the power of a certain secret treasure to hide your sword cultivation, but this can't hide from my eyes. Therefore, I asked the sect master to hold a core disciple selection battle in advance, and I knew at a glance who was hiding his strength. ”
