Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, eight days is not short, it is not long, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when the challenge begins.

After getting together with Hua Yuxi in the Iron Bamboo Forest eight days ago, Zhan Feng also got a lot of news about the 'Heavenly Machine Box' while losing the burning method of the Soul Gathering Array.

So the two agreed to study the relics of Prime Minister Zhuge in Hua Yuxi's hands together in the future, and look for the 'Heavenly Machine Box' together.

Although Zhan Feng doesn't quite believe that the 'Heavenly Machine' has the ability to predict everything, if everything is not predicted, it will be wasted, if he can really find the 'Heavenly Machine', maybe he can really find the real murderer of his father, and then he will not have to search hard.

After reaching an agreement with Hua Yuxi, Zhan Feng did not leave the Iron Bamboo Forest, and after Hua Yuxi left, he entered the White Jade Mirage.

Eight days later, the hour of the hour.

A red light suddenly burst out from the iron bamboo forest in the Sky Cuiting, and then I saw the red light pierce the sky, like a red cloud, flying towards the direction of the outer gate platform, and the person who controlled this red light was Zhan Feng, who had been in the white jade mirage for more than two months.

The challenge started at the hour of the hour, and as with the usual challenges, the dojo was already crowded before it started, and the wide dojo was almost surrounded by water, and after some people with a heart deliberately rendered, today's challenge became the most lively challenge ever.

As long as there are no disciples and Xiao Si in the outer gate, some are here to see the excitement, and some are purely to gamble, until this time the dealer is still shouting and beckoning the monk to bet.

In front of the platform is a three-meter-high platform, on which sit three meritorious hall foundation building six-rank monks, who are the referees of this challenge and the authoritative figures who maintain the continuity of the whole field.

There is a ten-meter-square open space on the east side of the platform, which is the challenger's rest area, and correspondingly, there is also an open space on the west side, which is naturally the challenged's rest area.

Suddenly, a dazzling red light suddenly appeared in the sky above the dojo, and an incomparable hot breath instantly enveloped the entire dojo, and the fire spiritual power of the space suddenly became extremely active, and the still bustling dojo suddenly became unusually quiet, and everyone looked up at the void with a look of horror or incredulity.

In the blink of an eye, a young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old appeared in the eyes of everyone with a flying sword on his feet, dressed in gray, his childish face rose slightly, with a kind of arrogance on his face, and his arrogant appearance was almost the same as the image circulating among the outer disciples.

Young and frivolous, proud and not inferior, this is the image that Zhan Feng deliberately pretended, in order to give people an illusion, and it is also a means for him to paralyze his opponent.

"Huh—how did he become like this?"

Hua Yuxi, who was sitting on the east side of the platform, couldn't help but sigh lightly after seeing the high-spirited Zhanfeng, and it could be seen that he was unusually stunned by the image shown by Zhanfeng.

"Senior Sister Hua has seen him before?"

Li Qiushui, who was sitting on Hua Yuxi's left, frowned slightly, shifted his gaze to Hua Yuxi's body, and was very skeptical of Hua Yuxi's performance.

"No, I just read some gossip about him. ”

Hua Yuxi smiled lightly and immediately shook her head in denial, but the clear eyes flashed with a different color.

"-Doesn't it mean that this kid is only practicing Qi and cultivating the fourth grade? Why has he become a fifth-grade now?"

On Li Qiushui's left side is Wu Mingyuan of the Dikun Palace, like all the Earth Spirit Root monks, he is burly and strong like a cow, but with a lewd expression on his face, looking at Zhan Feng who is gradually revealing his figure, a trace of incomprehension flashed in his eyes, and he turned to look at Kui Gang, who was also looking at Zhan Feng.

"Hmph, what if it's the fifth grade of Qi training? Kui Gang is practicing the Golden Shield Technique, even if the Qi Cultivation Sixth Rank Cultivator can't get any benefit in his hands, if he can't even defeat Kui Gang, it will be a piece of cake for us. ”

On Kui Gang's left is Zhu Yin of the Huolin Palace, who also belongs to the Fire Spirit Root Monk, and seeing that Zhan Feng is also a Qi Cultivation Five-Rank Monk, his heart is naturally not very comfortable, after all, Zhan Feng is a competition for the strength ranking of the outer door for others, but for him it is a competition for the quota of the inner door, and it is natural not to see Zhan Feng.

From this point of view, even the disciples who belong to the same deacon hall may not be able to get along, and because of the competition of status and identity, the internal struggle within each deacon hall is more fierce than the competition with other deacon halls, and it has even reached the point of life and death.

As a monk of the same attribute, he naturally did not want to have someone higher than his own cultivation, and only in this way could he maintain his position among the disciples of the outer sect of the deacon hall.

Therefore, in the Kaiyang Sect, there is competition no matter where it is, if you don't have the ability to climb up, then there is only one result, becoming a stepping stone for others, of course, this situation is not only the Kaiyang Sect, the entire immortal cultivation world has such a competitive relationship, maybe this is what people often say about natural selection of the weak and the strong.

"-It seems that we still underestimate this guy, the breath just now, definitely not below us, even stronger, it seems that this challenge has met an opponent. ”

Kui Gang sighed softly, and withdrew his gaze from Zhanfeng's body, his thick eyebrows frowned slightly, and his face showed a hint of solemnity, as the first challenger, he was not as optimistic as Zhu Yin, but was analyzing the situation in front of him considerably.

In the eyes of everyone, Zhan Feng slowly landed in the open space on the west side of the platform, and after a quick glance, he politely said to the three judges of the Hall of Merit in the center of the platform, "Disciple Zhanfeng, I have seen three elders. ”

"Haha, it's really worthy of the name, I'm afraid you're the only one who can cultivate the fire initiation technique to such a point in the outer gate. ”

The three elders nodded lightly towards Zhan Feng, which was regarded as a return salute, and one of the big men in a red robe smiled heartily, with appreciation in his eyes, and indescribable pride.

"Thank you, Elder. ”

Zhan Feng smiled slightly, and apologized again, he didn't know why the red-robed man was so happy, and vaguely felt that the atmosphere between the three elders was a little weird.

"Alright, the hour has come, let's get started. ”

The red-robed man seemed to be okay to say anything, but the yellow-robed man sitting in the middle suddenly waved his hand, interrupting his words, and a coercive voice instantly spread throughout the entire dojo.

Those monks who had not yet come back to their senses because of the momentum of Zhan Feng couldn't help but be shocked suddenly, and they all looked in the direction of the Dao platform.

As soon as the words of the yellow-robed old man fell, Kui Gang, who was nine feet long, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a majestic face like a heavy jujube, jumped with a hundred-pound sledgehammer in his hand, jumped onto the platform suddenly, and saluted the three deacons and elders with fists.

Zhan Feng was slightly stunned, without hesitation, the Chixiao Sword slashed in the air, and went straight to the Dao platform with an arrow step, learning Kui Gang's appearance and bowing to the three deacons and elders.

"The evidence is here, and he has told heaven and earth, Kui Gang, a disciple of the outer door of Jinze Palace, for the first time, challenged Zhan Feng, a disciple of the outer door of the Huolin Palace, and Zhan Feng responded to the battle, and the two were willing to suffer casualties without complaint. ”

Glancing at Zhan Feng and Kui Gang, the old man in the yellow robe picked up a notebook and stood up from his seat with a serious face, the atmosphere was very solemn, and the whole process was as solemn as a mortal sacrifice.

"Do you two have any doubts?"

After finishing speaking, the old man glanced at Zhan Feng and Kui Gang and asked.

"There is no doubt about the disciple!"

Zhan Feng and Kui Gang glanced at each other, and then hugged hands in unison.

"Since there is no doubt, let's get started. ”

The old man nodded, waved his big hand, and a golden light shot out from his fingers, only to hear a boom, there was a wave around the platform, and a light curtain instantly appeared, covering the platform tightly.
