There are more than 10,000 disciples in the Houtu Academy of the Five Elements Sect, of which ninety percent are cultivators in the Qi Gathering Period, and seventy percent of the monks in the Qi Gathering Period are below the sixth layer of Qi Gathering.

Everyone didn't know how he cultivated, but the vast majority of people thought that he had the support of the Dijing Mu family, which was one of the reasons why everyone was so polite to him, of course, no one could deny that Lin Xiuqi had such a cultivation because of his own luck and some chances.

In any case, seeing that some of the monks in the same academy were cultivating at an astonishing speed, many people were very happy, and they gathered around Lin Xiuqi to ask long and short questions.

At this moment, a yin and yang voice said: "Hmph! A monk who can't become a master has found a backer in the mortal world with some cleverness, and forcibly raised his cultivation to the spirit stage, what is there to pursue!"

The person who spoke was none other than the Triangle-Eyed Monk, and it was also one of the people that Lin Xiuqi felt familiar, at this time, he heard the other party's voice, and he was even more sure that he had seen the other party, but he still couldn't remember who this person was.

Seeing that Lin Xiuqi was silent, the Triangle Eye Monk continued: "What kind of extensive knowledge, it's just that you can't master it and immediately change the target along the way, I've seen a lot of this kind of 'three and four' disciples! I'm looking forward to meeting you in the competition!"

Everyone was silent, and no one spoke for Lin Xiuqi, even if someone had a rebuttal in their hearts, they also dispelled their thoughts when they saw that the other party was also a contestant in the competition.

The triangular-eyed monk looked in the direction of the Cao family in Bird Lake, and said jokingly: "Hehe! Maybe Cao Yihong has not been able to achieve such cultivation in his lifetime! It seems that the young master of the Cao family in Bird Lake is not as good as a down-and-out craftsman, and the new disciple is really worrying!"

The monk of the Cao family turned pale, but he did not speak, since the fall of Cao Yihong and Cao Yixinxin's brothers, the Cao family is indeed no successor, although he and the two are cousins, their qualifications are difficult to compare with the two.

Seeing that the Cao family monk was embarrassed, and the triangular-eyed monk showed a satisfied smile, he looked at Jiang Shui and the people of the Zhang family were about to speak, but he didn't know who shouted: "Look, Senior Brother Li Junfeng is here!"

Everyone followed the prestige, a yellow light flashed, and a sword fell from the sky, this person looked dignified and had an extraordinary bearing, it was Li Junfeng that Lin Xiuqi had seen in the dark market, and at the same time, he was also the "defeated general" who lost to him in the bidding of the "snake hand", he didn't care at first, at this time, Lin Xiuqi found out that Li Junfeng was a smart late stage of cultivation.

Bathed in the envious and longing eyes of everyone, Li Junfeng showed a kind smile, and was about to respond to everyone's expectations, when someone shouted: "That's Senior Brother Liang Yicheng!

In an instant, the crowd began to be noisy, and a man with a good appearance and full of masculinity walked over with his head held high, in Lin Xiuqi's opinion, this person seemed to be a combination of Gu Xiaoman's body and Silva's temperament.

Everyone quickly got out of the way, Liang Yicheng strode to the ring, he lightly touched the ground with one foot, jumped high, and landed firmly on the ring.

Strange to say, this person is good-looking, but he does not smile, there is no smug look in his eyes, and he does not despise anyone, as if a high mountain stands here.

When Li Junfeng saw Liang Yicheng, his face changed slightly, and he said lightly: "Today, you and I will definitely divide the victory!"

"I'm looking forward to it. Liang Yicheng only said four words and stopped talking, but everyone in the audience looked respectful.

Seeing this, Lin Xiuqi thought to himself, this is the demeanor of a master! Under the spotlight of everyone, just a few words can be fascinated, how can I be like me, there are still so many cases, it is too formalized!

At this moment, a huge commotion came, and Lin Xiuqi couldn't even hear what he was shouting!

In the distance, a small boat flew from the sky, this is a flying spirit weapon, soft and smooth curves, light cyan hull, two women standing quietly on the spirit boat, showing elegance and nobility.

Lin Xiuqi recognized these two women, the leader was Xia Lingyan, who did not eat fireworks in the world, this woman was the body of the earth-level earth spirit, and she was also the personal disciple of Yin Ze'an, the master of the academy, and the cultivation had reached the peak of agility, if she was interested, she might be able to build the foundation at any time, but she was undoubtedly the first disciple of the Houtu Academy, and it was even rumored that this woman was better than the strong man in the early stage of foundation building.

Another woman, Lin Xiuqi is more familiar with, it is Xia Luyuan, who entered the sect at the same time as him, this woman is Xia Lingyan's younger sister, and her cultivation has also reached the early stage of agility, which should not be underestimated.

Seeing Xia Lingyan coming, Li Junfeng's eyes showed a look of admiration, and Liang Yicheng simply nodded and expressed his greetings.

In the ring, in mid-air, four figures appeared in the eyes of everyone in an instant, so fast that they seemed to squeeze into the field of vision, it was Yin Ze'an, the head of the Houtu Academy, the elders Xun Tuhai and Luo Jiuhua, and one person Lin Xiuqi had never seen. Let's read books

This person is about forty years old, and his appearance is very ordinary, and he has a smile on his face all the time, which makes people feel close.

"This is the newly appointed Elder Xie Jintian of our Academy, he is worthy of being a powerhouse of the Yin Yang Academy, and his aura is so deep, maybe he is comparable to the strength of the Sect Leader!"

"Hmph! What a strength the master of the courtyard is, how can anyone compare with it!"

"The two of you, both of you are your own people, why bother fighting! The dignified Yin-Yang Academy Monk actually came to serve as the elder of my Houtu, presumably our academy must have received great attention, and we should step up our cultivation and live up to our expectations!"

Everyone spoke out in agreement, and some voices were different.

"I think there's something good to be found!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"In this competition, the elders all have the right to recommend a disciple to participate in the competition, the other three elders are all openly selected, and the three contestants also fought in the ring for a long time to get qualified, but Elder Xie chose people to participate in the competition by himself, which is really unfair!"

"I've heard about it, too, and he seems to be ...... Received the benefits!"

"No, it won't!"

"Be quiet, if you are heard by the elders, you will definitely be punished!"

At this time, Xun Tuhai, Luo Jiuhua and Xie Jintian were chatting, and did not pay attention to the words of the monk below.

Yin Ze'an said loudly: "Today is the day of the competition of my Houtu Academy, a total of sixteen people participated, among them, the mortal family recommended three people, respectively from the Dijing Mu family, the Bird Lake Cao family and the Jiang Shui Zhang family!"

At this moment, Lin Xiuqi suddenly understood why the Cao family of Que Hu and the Zhang family of Jiang Shui were called the upstart twins, and they were originally recognized by the Five Elements Sect.

At the same time, he also understood that this competition was very important, he thought it was a "big party" scene attended by 100 people, but he didn't expect that there were only 16 people, and sure enough, as Mu Qianli said, this was an excellent opportunity to show.

Yin Ze'an continued: "Nine of the remaining thirteen are the top nine monks on the Forbidden Dungeon Alien List, and the remaining four are the four elders except the old man, and they each choose one person. Of course, these four places are open to the public, and those who get the places are also expected. ”

Lin Xiuqi remembered the two people who fought hard in the arena of the Martial Arts Pavilion yesterday, maybe they were the two candidates who competed for the place recommended by the elders, but the others mentioned that Xie Jintian's quota was directly awarded to one person, and it seemed that the content of the "open solicitation" was different.

There is no way out, Lin Xiuqi's experience of getting a place is very easy.

"The competition in the courtyard is to select ten people to represent my Houtu Academy to participate in the three days later in the Zongnai competition, the form is two by two, after the end of the first round of the competition, the winning eight people directly enter the list of ten people, the losing eight people compete for the other two places, and the eliminated six people each have a chance to challenge the eight people who won the first round. The losing group needs to continue to compete, as for whether the winning group needs to be divided into winners and losers and rankings, what do you think about the other sixteen?"

Lin Xiuqi thought to himself, with such a big loophole, I am afraid that anyone will make the first round of efforts, and then save their strength, how can anyone want to continue to compete!

At this moment, everyone except Lin Xiuqi said in unison: "I am willing to share the victory!"

"Okay! It is worthy of being one of the elites in my Houtu Academy, and our monks are always competing with others for opportunities, fighting for opportunities with heaven and earth, how terrible is it to compete with others!"

Lin Xiuqi looked at the other fifteen people in a daze, even Xia Lingyan, who didn't eat the fireworks of the world, looked like he deserved, at this moment, he was very suspicious of whether he was abnormal or someone else was abnormal.

Yin Ze'an continued: "Since you all have the intention of continuing to compete, starting from the second round, the competition of the two groups of winners and losers will be held at the same time. There is a quarter-hour break between each round. During the competition, there is no restriction on the use of foreign objects, but it is not allowed to use pills such as Tongming Pill and Burning Spirit Pill to improve cultivation for a short time, and it is not allowed to delay the flight of the imperial weapon. In addition, those who kill the monks of the same academy will be disqualified!"
