In the early morning, after Qin Xuan walked into the gate of the deacon hall with a rusty sword on his back, he couldn't help but look stunned.

I saw that the hall on the first floor was crowded with a bustling crowd, there were fifty or sixty people, most of them were outer disciples, but there were also seven or eight people wearing inner disciple costumes.

"May I ask this senior brother, what is the situation? Are there usually so many people here?" Qin Xuan blinked, walked a few steps to a twenty-something inner disciple near the door, and asked with a bow.

"Oh, this junior brother is new to the door. Hehe, today happens to be the time when the Deacon Hall rotates various sect tasks once a year, and naturally many people are in a hurry early in the morning and want to choose a better task. But in fact, this is just a waste of effort, and most of those tasks that have oil and water have already been set. This inner disciple was very kind, with a dark green thick belt tied around his waist, glanced at Qin Xuan, and explained indifferently.

"I see, thank you for telling me. Qin Xuan was a little stunned.

"Hehe, Zong Ming, who is under the Lower Purple Fire Peak, I don't know what kind of disciple my senior brother's surname is. When this inner disciple saw that although Qin Xuan was not only old, but he was so polite, he couldn't help but feel a little good, and asked casually.

"Under Qin Xuan, now worship under the Refining Weapon Sect. Qin Xuan didn't hide it either.

"Oh, the junior brother was originally assigned to Uncle Wan's door. The refining vein has always been weak for many years, and Senior Brother Bai may not have a good time in the future. When Li Zong heard this, he couldn't help but show a hint of sympathy.

"It's okay. Qin Xuan replied quietly.

"Hehe, the inside of each peak is naturally harmonious, but when it comes to the big competition, you will know the pain of joining the weak peak. Zong Ming shook his head and said.

"Oh, Dabi, Trial! Although I have heard of it, I really don't know the specific situation. Can Senior Brother Grandmaster tell me something about his junior brother!" Qin Xuan heard this, and in his heart, "This...... , forget it, the junior brother will always know in the future, I'll give you a little bit of it first. After Li Zong hesitated slightly, he did not refuse.

"There has always been a saying that there is a small ratio in one year, a large ratio in three years, and a trial in five years. Among them, Xiaobi is the matter of each peak vein, just to roughly test the cultivation and magic secret skills of the disciples of this peak, and then according to the situation, there will be a certain reward issued by the elders. Although there are not many benefits to this kind of competition, the general situation is also harmonious. As for the triennial competition, it is completely different, it is a real competition that all the Qi cultivation disciples of the whole sect will participate in, and one hundred core disciples of the whole sect will be determined, and the names will also be inscribed on the sword tablet in the sect for all the disciples to admire. What's more, these core disciples will be specially cultivated within the sect in the next three years, and the higher the ranking, the more rewards they can receive. Of course, the results of the comprehensive competition of the big competition also directly determine the amount of resources that each peak vein can occupy in the sect in the future. Even in the foundation building period and the foundation period, adults will pay great attention to the big competition. As far as I know, the refining vein has been at the bottom of the competition for more than ten years. In this way, the resources of the sect obtained by your refining weapons have naturally always been the least, but the more this is the case, the more difficult it will be to turn over. And although this big comparison is presided over by the relatives of the Dan Realm, but the real battle between Qi training is such a dangerous thing, and it is common to miss and hurt people in the competition, or even kill the opponent with the wrong hand. So this big competition is life and death," Zong Ming said a lot of words in one breath, and Qin Xuan, who was listening directly, nodded again and again.

"Well, Xiaobi, Dabi's affairs are similar to what my younger brother knows. But what is the trial of life and death? This ...... The younger brother only heard the name mentioned occasionally. Qin Xuan asked again.

"The trial of life and death is not only a matter involving our Huashan Sword Sect, but a trial jointly organized by the nine major sects of the Qingshui Country, and it is also a competition to determine the strength of the sects and finally determine the ranking of the sects in the Qingshui Kingdom. Therefore, the cruelty and intensity of this trial are far beyond the imagination of these disciples such as us. If there are people who are injured or killed in the big game, it only happens occasionally. Then in the trial of life and death, the disciples of the various sects can come back alive, but often less than half of them are the real line of life and death. Over the past hundreds of years, this sect has always performed poorly in the trials of life and death, and is often ranked last. Li Zong said with a sigh.

"This trial of life and death is so dangerous, how are the disciples who participate in the competition selected, ordinary disciples will not be willing to take the initiative to participate. After Qin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but gasp.

"Hehe, even though this life and death trial is extremely dangerous, as long as you can come back alive, the benefits you can get are not something you and I can imagine. As far as I know, most of the uncles and uncles of the various peaks and veins are disciples who participated in the trials of life and death back then. Therefore, even if ordinary disciples want to participate, they do not have this qualification. Those who can participate in this trial can only be the top ten core disciples on the sword tablet. And as long as he can get the top ten positions, any disciple will soar to the sky, and in the remaining year, he will get the best training in the sect at any cost, so as to strive for greater benefits for the entire sect in the Qingshui Country. Li Zong replied without thinking.

"I see, thank you for your advice. After listening to this, Qin Xuan thought about it for a while, and immediately thanked him sincerely.

"Haha, it's nothing, I also fell in love with my little junior brother at first sight. By the way, when you go to receive the sect's routine task in a while, if you want to pick a good task, you might as well report my name to the report, and then secretly give the deacon who assigns the task a little benefit, and then you can get your wish. After Zong Zong laughed, he squeezed his eyes at him again, which was quite witty.

Qin Xuan smiled, thanked the "Sect Senior Brother" again, and joined a long queue that was no longer stranded.
