Chapter 5 Surrender is also a technique
Gongs and drums are noisy, firecrackers are ringing, red flags are displayed, and people are crowded.
The above scenes are all Su Luoxue's imagination, and the new disciples of the sect can only be described in two words: shabby in June.
It's just a few platforms set up in Zongmen Square.
Tianxuan Sect is a small sect after all, and its geographical location is relatively remote, and the number of all disciples in the sect is only about three hundred.
Among them, there are more than fifty new disciples who have joined the sect, but there are more miscellaneous servants.
After all, if the sect wants to maintain its operation, it needs to reap the benefits through these miscellaneous positions.
Tianxuan Sect has a total of four Jindan stage monks, the sect leader is in the late stage of Jindan, and the three elders are in the early stage of Jindan.
Although there are many branches, they are actually attached to the elders, and only the Lingzhi Hall is more special and has a separate hall master.
Sect Master Wu Fannao looked at the young disciples below, his face full of red light.
"Senior brother in charge, the quality of this year's batch of children is good, and there are two monks with dual spirit roots, which is really a blessing for my sect!" The Great Elder stroked his beard and said.
"Yes, this is a good sign that the sect is going to rise again."
"Hey, if it weren't for the collusion of the previous head~"
"Shut up, how many times has this matter been emphasized, and I am not allowed to mention it again." The sect master turned his head and glared at the three elders, "That matter is still inconclusive, as a disciple of the Tianxuan Sect, how can you discuss your colleagues in vain." ”
The three elders shook their heads and said no more.
"Fellow disciples of the Tianxuan Sect, you have been in the sect for half a year, and your growth during this time has been remarkable, now is the time to test your cultivation results."
The sect master waved his hand, "This competition is only divided into victory and defeat, not life and death, you must remember that the sect is your eternal home, and you must not be ruthless to your fellow sects." ”
With the order of the sect leader Wu Fannao, the tense and exciting duel officially began.
Although it is a major event in the sect, in fact, no one has come to see it at all, and the senior brothers and sisters will not waste their time in this kind of place, and they are all working hard to cultivate.
Su Luoxue sat beside her master and silently watched the monk's fighting method on the platform.
The monks in the Qi training period are only preliminarily mastering the use of Reiki techniques, and blessing the aura on weapons or bodies, although spells such as small fireball techniques can also be used, but they are very chicken ribs in actual combat.
This kind of spell consumes the aura in the body, and it may be empty after a few shots, so the battle is mainly based on physical skills.
Su Luoxue knew that the sect was poor, but she didn't expect it to be so poor.
In fact, before participating in the Tianxuan Sect test, Su Luoxue had also been to several surrounding sects, but they were all eliminated in the first level of the spiritual root test.
Tianxuanzong's spiritual root detection is the last step, without him, save spiritual stones, after all, the cost of maintaining the spiritual root detection array is relatively large.
"The next group of contestants, Ling Zhi Tang Su Luoxue, Flying Sword Peak Zhu Qingyi."
When I came to the stage, the girl opposite looked about the same age as herself, and her eyebrows were full of confidence and pride. Holding a short sword in his hand, he put on a posture that could be attacked and defended.
Judging by the black marks on the cuffs, this person was an ordinary disciple of Flying Sword Peak.
"It's over, why did you meet a disciple at the beginning, what is the situation of this Spirit Plantation Hall, I have never encountered it." Zhu Qingyi seemed to be very calm, but she panicked.
At first, she was still excited to become an official disciple, but then her cultivation was poured cold water, her qualifications were not high, and her cultivation was slow.
However, Zhu Qingyi still gritted his teeth and prepared to face his own disciples, if he didn't even have the courage to draw his sword, how could he fight on the immortal road.
It's just that as soon as the short sword was pulled out, Zhu Qingyi found that the disciple on the opposite side had done a backflip, lying straight on the ground, his right hand stretched out into the air, and he couldn't stop trembling.
"Okay, such a powerful sword qi, I didn't expect Daoyou to be so powerful, it's me who is invincible, I admit defeat!"
Zhu Qingyi scratched her head, it turned out that she was so powerful, but something was wrong, she didn't make a move at all.
"What about the referee, I lost, hurry up and announce the result for the next game, the stage is still weirdly cold." Su Luoxue turned to look at the senior brother who was in charge of maintaining order on the side and said.
Senior Brother jumped cheeky, and originally wanted to say something, but as soon as he saw that it was Lingzhitang's costume, he directly announced the result, "Lingzhitang Su Luoxue took the initiative to admit defeat, and the winner was Zhu Qingyi of Flying Sword Peak." ”
"Wait a minute, it's not that I take the initiative to admit defeat, the sword qi on the other side is too strong and I can't defeat it, hey, senior brother, don't go."
Returning to her seat, Su Luoxue was very satisfied, "Grandpa, isn't my backflip just now very beautiful!" ”
"It's almost perfect, it would be perfect if you could add a few more moves when you land."
Zhu Qingyi naturally understands what happened now, she feels that she has been tricked and won, but she is very unhappy in her heart, and she feels underestimated.
In the next few games, Su Luoxue fell to the ground in various strange postures, as long as there was a slight movement on the other side, she would say "so strong, I lost", and then happily went down to eat snacks.
I thought that the day's competition would end like this, but I didn't expect to meet a more serious monk in the middle.
This person's cuffs are silver, and he is a personal disciple of the Refining Body Peak, and after finding out that Su Luoxue directly admitted defeat, he was angry.
"Cultivating immortals is to go against the sky, my generation of monks must have the courage to fight, you admit defeat so easily, are you worthy of your master's teaching!"
Su Luoxue turned her head to look at her master, he was sleeping soundly now.
"If you don't even have the courage to face a strong enemy, how can you survive in a cruel world, the most important thing in cultivation is to cultivate your mind, knowing that you can't do it, is the foundation of my generation's rampant in heaven and earth."
Su Luoxue shook her head, "Wrong, living is the foundation of cultivating immortals, and daring to fight anything will only harm you." Knowing that he can't fight and still participate in the war, there is only one way to die, and when a person dies, there is nothing. ”
"And I'm not cowardly, I know how to plan tactically. You are now in the late stage of Qi training, I am in the early stage, I will definitely not be able to beat you, if I really fight with you and end up injured, then what will I do in the next battle, it is very likely that I will be defeated by someone lower than my own strength. ”
"Our competition is a point system, not an elimination system, so we naturally have to learn to preserve our strength."
"Learning to surrender is also a skill." Su Luoxue got up and patted the dust on her clothes, "Little brother, you still have a long way to go, study hard." ”
The three battle tables were basically next to each other, and although Su Luoxue's voice was not loud, she was still heard by the people on the stage.
Surrender isn't pretty, but it's the best way to preserve your strength, after all, it's the points that are awarded in the end.
As a result, an atmosphere of direct surrender in the face of a large gap in strength became more and more intense.
This ethos culminated in a mid-game game with an early sub-gram.
That mid-game guy is a dead brain, and he has to compete with his late-game opponents. The result was naturally defeated, and he was also injured, which affected the following battles, and he was easily handled in the early stage.
Su Luoxue didn't expect that what she said was just a casual remark on her face, but it changed the flow of the entire competition.
Now as soon as you come to power, the competition is not who wins first, but who falls down first and says that the other side is powerful and surrenders directly.
