Ye Qing slowly stood up and clapped his hands, still looking indifferent.

"Your cultivation is too poor, you are not familiar with the use of martial arts, and you have not been able to exert the domineering power of the sword. You are several notches behind those young masters in Lingcheng. ”

After saying that, Ye Qing turned around and left, leaving only Shang Hua sitting on the ground with a stunned face.

Ye Qing didn't use any martial arts with that punch, not even Yuan Li, and easily knocked Shang Hua to the ground, although Shang Hua was not injured, but his self-confidence was shaken.

Thinking of his aggressive appearance before, it is really funny to think back now, it turns out that he is nothing in the eyes of the other party, and it is already very face-saving for people to sit here and listen to themselves talk about tactics.

After Shang Hua showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, he lifted the big knife beside him and left dejectedly.

And Ye Qing has already returned to Wanhuayuan, for a person like Shang Hua, Ye Qing naturally will not take it to heart, and he will not be complacent because he defeated a little person like Shang Hua.

After cultivating the Fusion Weapon Technique, Ye Qing's physical strength was stronger than ordinary weapons. Especially the successive breakthroughs during this period of time made Ye Qing's physical strength comparable to that of an intermediate magic weapon. It was also because of this that the current Ye Qing was no longer able to improve his cultivation by refining an intermediate-level magic weapon.

In the next period of time, Ye Qing ran at both ends of Wan Huayuan and Shang Rou, making Xiao Yi also eat several times.

Finally, the day of the preliminary round came, and Ye Qing also adjusted himself to the best state.

On this day, Shang Zhentian took Ye Qing and them out of Shangbao and went to Lingcheng. He was accompanied by a number of juniors and several elders from the merchant fort.

During this period, there was another incident, that is, Shang Ming had some problems when he was cultivating a few days ago, so he could only let Shang Hui replace him. Fortunately, the cultivation of the two is about the same, and it will not affect the combat power of the merchant fort.

Today's Lingcheng is more lively than ever, because today is the day when Tianyao Academy comes to Lingcheng to recruit new students. A large number of forces around Lingcheng have brought their younger generation to Lingcheng to participate in the preliminary competition.

A vast open space was full of people from all major forces, all facing in one direction, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, a small black dot appeared on the horizon.

Everyone in the square noticed this little black dot and stared at the sky excitedly.

The small black dot slowly grew larger in everyone's eyes, and Ye Qing also looked at this small black dot carefully. After that small black dot gradually enlarged, it was finally revealed that it was a bird.

Suddenly, an extremely loud voice came, which shook the ears of everyone in the square. Immediately afterwards, a gust of wind blew, and some of the poorly cultivated people sat directly on the ground.

Finally, the wind stopped, and when everyone reopened their eyes, they found that an extremely powerful beast had appeared on the high platform in front of the clearing.

I saw that it had a pointed beak like an eagle, and its four talons were like those of an eagle, which was extremely sharp. The four legs are as strong and powerful as a lion. It is more than five meters tall, nearly eight meters long, and twelve meters long when its two wings are spread.

Sharp eyes were staring at everyone on the field, and a powerful momentum came to his face.

"This is a fifth-order demonic beast wind carving, good at flying, extremely fast, and comparable to the existence of a martial arts mid-level existence. ”

Shang Zhentian said to the people behind him.

Hearing Shang Zhentian's words, a group of young disciples from the merchant castle suddenly exclaimed. One by one, they looked at the wind sculpture curiously, excited and nervous.

After all, it was the first time to see such a high-level demonic beast, so it was naturally difficult to hide the excitement in his heart, but thinking that the strength of the demonic beast in front of him had actually reached the level of a martial commander, and he could destroy himself at any time, he naturally felt a little nervous.

At this moment, a young man jumped from the wind carving, looking to be in his early twenties, wearing a cyan robe, and looked at the people below with an indifferent expression.

"The preliminary competition will start immediately, and each faction will send a maximum of five disciples under the age of twenty-five, and immediately go to the Hengduan Mountain Range to gather in the Flying Demonic Beast, where there is a designated competition area. ”

Ye Qing glanced at the young people on the stage and found that with his current soul power, he couldn't see through the other party's cultivation.

couldn't help but be taken aback, Ye Qing obviously didn't expect that the cultivation of the young man in front of him had actually reached the level of martial arts commander or above, even higher than Lin Yan of the Ghost King Sect he had met before.

And the young man in front of him is obviously a few years younger than Lin Yan.

"Sure enough, there is a sky outside the sky, and my cultivation is far from enough!"

Ye Qing sighed in his heart.

"Okay, then we can't go with you, you go to the square to take the flying demonic beast of Lingcheng, and follow that person from Tianyao Academy to the place of the competition. ”

Shang Zhentian's voice came, Ye Qing nodded slightly, and led everyone to the place where the flying demonic beast was.

Before leaving, Shang Zhentian patted Ye Qing lightly and said, "Help me take care of them." ”

Ye Qing nodded lightly and continued to walk forward.

The other four people of the merchant all followed behind Ye Qing, namely Shang Rou, Shang Hua, Shang Long, and Shang Hui. Since Ye Qing easily defeated Shang Hua last time, Shang Hua has been completely convinced, probably knowing something from Shang Hua, among the five people, Ye Qing is faintly the leader.

Ye Qing naturally would not refuse, because a unified command was needed at that time, so as to ensure that everyone could give full play to their best combat power.

Although the flying demonic beast provided by Lingcheng is not as good as the wind eagle, it is also a second-order demonic beast called the ironback eagle. It is not a problem to carry five adults at the same time, so that the representative of each faction rides an ironback eagle.

Soon, the group came to a marginal area of the Hengduan Mountains.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the young man from Tianyao Academy said, "Each of you now come to me to receive a white jade medal, and then enter the competition venue. You need to snatch each other's white jade cards until you get ten white jade cards before you can return here, and it is forbidden to kill during the game, otherwise I will directly wipe them out. ”

Seeing that everyone understood, he asked everyone to step forward in turn to receive the white jade plate.

"Ye Qing, let's all act together in a while, don't trust anyone, quickly get ten brands and return here. ”

Shang Hui said to Ye Qing.

"Okay, let's go together, let's go first, talk as we go. ”

The area of the competition is very vast, at least half the size of the mausoleum, and special formations are arranged around it to prevent some demonic beasts from entering. There are many entrances around the formation, and each faction will pick one entrance to enter. Then that entrance will disappear, so that the two forces will not meet as soon as they enter.

Ye Qing and the five of them chose a close entrance, and as soon as they entered, they found that they were surrounded by towering trees, and there was no half of a human figure.

"Ye Qing, you may encounter people from other forces at any time in a while, don't be soft then, even if there is no conflict at this time, you will become an opponent when you go out. ”

Shang Hua said seriously.
