Chapter 31: Gathering on the Dao Battle Platform
The small building practice room, the door is closed. Outside the door, Pang Zi was pacing back and forth with a bitter face. From time to time, when I looked at the door, my eyes were full of worry.
Three days ago, Ning Xuanyuan returned, and after that, he went directly into the practice room to retreat, and in these three days, he did not step out of the door for half a step. Originally, Pang Zi didn't care, and retreat practice was an ordinary thing. However, when he learned the news that Ning Xuanyuan challenged Chen Zifan, he knew what had happened.
"This guy is simply reckless. Chen Zifan is a veteran disciple who has reached the top mountain range, and his strength is unfathomable. How could he dare to challenge, and it was a life-and-death battle?" Pang Zi had been sitting on the edge for the past few days, and even his daily practice had stopped. Although Ning Xuanyuan's strength was already extremely strong now, no one dared to provoke him in this second-layer mountain range. But that Chen Zifan is not an ordinary person, it is said that he already has the qualifications to attack the inner door, what does Ning Xuanyuan have nothing to do to provoke him?
"Crunch. ”
It was when Pang Zi was upset and kept muttering in his mouth that the door of the practice room was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and then a figure stepped out, it was Ning Xuanyuan.
Walking out of the practice room, Ning Xuanyuan looked up and saw Pang Zi, his expression was suddenly stunned, and he asked, "If you don't go to practice, what are you doing here?"
"Nonsense, today is the day you challenge Chen Zifan, what do you say I'm doing here?" Pang Zi said with some bitterness, why did this guy still act like a nobody at this time?
"Do you know about this too?" Ning Xuanyuan's eyes flashed, he had stayed at home for the past three days, and he didn't know that his challenge to Chen Zifan had already caused a lot of uproar, and everyone knew about it.
"It's not just me, but now the whole outer gate knows about it. Today, the sect has specially opened up a mountain road, so that all outer disciples can climb to the top and watch the battle between you and Chen Zifan. Pang Zi said in a deep voice.
"Oh?" Ning Xuanyuan was a little surprised, he didn't expect this matter to be so sensational. Ye Hongyu won't say anything about it, so it must be Chen Zifan who publicized it. This guy seems to want to step on himself hard in front of everyone.
"Hehe, does everybody know? Ning Xuanyuan narrowed his eyes, and a chill flashed in his eyes. Since Chen Zifan made a big fuss, it was just right. Then he will know what it means to lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.
"Xuanyuan, that Chen Zifan is a martial artist of the Eightfold Pulse Opening Realm, and his strength is extremely strong. And this battle is still a battle of life and death, how sure are you?" Pang Zi looked at Ning Xuanyuan with a worried face and asked.
"How sure?" Ning Xuanyuan smiled faintly, and then patted Pang Zi's shoulder. "Fatty, after today, this place will be yours. If you live alone in the future, don't miss me too much. ”
"Huh?" Ning Xuanyuan's answer was not what he asked, which made Pang Zi stunned, and he immediately reacted suddenly. Ning Xuanyuan meant that after today's battle, he would stay in the top mountain range?
"Gone. Patting Pang Zi's shoulder again, Ning Xuanyuan stepped out of the small building, and then walked in the direction of the peak of the mountain range.
...................
Today's Waimen Mountain Range, at the peak, there is a golden avenue across the sky, straight from the sky down, straight to the foot of the mountain. One by one, figures walked along the Cotai Avenue and reached the top of the mountain.
For many outer disciples, the top of the mountain has always been their place of yearning. Only when you get there do you have the qualifications to enter the inner gate. What gathered there was the elite of all the outer disciples. Normally, even if the talent is not bad, it will take two to three years to be qualified to set foot on it. And today, the sect has granted permission to open up a mountain path so that everyone can go to the top of the mountain. So many people's faces are filled with excitement.
Of course, in addition to the excitement, there are many people who seem to be looking forward to it. Today, on the Dao battle platform, the newcomer Ning Xuanyuan, the dark horse, strongly challenged the veteran disciple Chen Zifan. Such a battle is not enough to describe as a rare sight in a century.
After all, it seemed that since the establishment of the Qingxiao Sword Sect, this kind of thing had never happened.
The newcomer challenges the elderly, and it is a battle of life and death. This feels a little ridiculous in the hearts of many people. Ning Xuanyuan, where did he get his confidence?
At this time, at the peak of the mountain range, the Daozhantai area was already crowded with people, and it was very lively. The momentum is simply amazing. The entire outer disciples of the Qingxiao Sword Sect are now all gathered here, and the scene is naturally quite grand. I don't know, I thought it was an outer door Dabi today.
Above the heights, several figures sat on high positions. The person at the head is none other than Elder Mu Yun. And beside Elder Mu Yun, there were several figures, all of whom were deacons of the sect. Today, Ning Xuanyuan and Chen Zifan had already fought before, so today they came in person to witness this battle. And the corpse of the thunderbat was placed at their feet. When the battle is over, its ownership will be announced.
Around the Dao Battle Platform, many disciples are roughly divided into three areas, which are divided according to the location of the mountain range where they are located, and they are clearly distinguished. In some other directions, though, there are several figures standing on their own.
The night red fish stood on a mountain rock, wearing a well-fitting moon-white long skirt to set it off like a fairy in the moon who does not eat fireworks in the world, and her face was thrillingly beautiful. The eyes of many people around her were projected towards her intentionally or unintentionally, and there was a look of admiration in their eyes that could not be concealed.
"It is said that today's battle between Ning Xuanyuan and Chen Zifan is related to Senior Sister Hongyu, and I don't know if it's true or not. Someone in the crowd whispered.
"Hmph, of course it's fake. What kind of character is Senior Sister Hongyu? Ning Xuanyuan is just a newcomer. Slow down to say that it's him, even if it's those senior brothers in the top mountain range, who can enter the eyes of Senior Sister Hongyu?Ning Xuanyuan, does he have that qualification?" someone said disdainfully.
"That's not necessarily, don't forget, how Ning Xuanyuan climbed the second-story mountain range in the first place. Now Zhou Yi is still honestly staying at the foot of the mountain, not daring to go back. And I also heard that even in the second-layer mountain range, Ning Xuanyuan was very prosperous, and even abolished one person, but he didn't see the sect punish him. Now those old people don't dare to provoke him, which can be regarded as a lot of face for us newcomers. Some people said with different opinions, these people are all newcomer disciples of the same class as Ning Xuanyuan. "So, maybe this matter is really related to Senior Sister Redfish?"
In the crowd, there were two figures with extremely ugly faces at this time, and they were Zhou Xuan and Zhou Yi's brothers. Now the two of them are the biggest joke among all the outer disciples. Especially Zhou Yi, in the past few years, he is also the first old disciple to be squeezed out of his position by a newcomer. The degree of humiliation can be imagined.
"Big brother, you said that in this challenge, will Ning Xuanyuan be Chen Zifan's opponent?" Zhou Xuan's eyes were gloomy, and he first glanced at the few people who spoke before, and then looked at Zhou Yi beside him, and asked in a low voice.
"With him, how is it possible?" Now Zhou Yi's injuries have completely recovered, but the whole person has a gloomy smell. During this time, he lived like a year, although the other rookie disciples didn't dare to say anything, but when they looked at him on weekdays, there was a trace of sarcasm. This made his hatred for Ning Xuanyuan reach its peak.
"Senior Brother Chen Zifan, I have met once, the cultivation of the Eightfold Opening Pulse Realm is excellent, even in the top mountain range. What kind of thing is Ning Xuanyuan, who is dead, and now it is just a five-fold marrow realm, and if he dares to challenge Senior Brother Chen, he is simply looking for death!" Zhou Yi sneered and said in a calm tone.
When Ning Xuanyuan left the foot of the mountain, he was still a cultivator of the Fourfold Yi Muscle Realm, and now it has only been less than two months, so in Zhou Yi's opinion, Ning Xuanyuan can already be regarded as looking up to him if he can break through to the Fivefold Cutting Marrow Realm.
"Hmph, that's right. It seems that this guy is a little arrogant and overdone, and he doesn't know how thick the sky is. This time, I'll see how he dies!" Zhou Xuan said through gritted teeth.
In the other direction, a figure stood high in the sky, only slightly lower than Elder Mu Yun and the others, it was Qin Hao. Because the events of the day were also related to him, he specially asked the sect today to come and watch the battle, and he was also the only inner disciple in today's field.
At this time, he clasped his hands to his chest, his eyes were cold, his eyes occasionally looked in the direction where the night red fish was, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. Now he also inquired about Ning Xuanyuan, and knew that Ning Xuanyuan was the first person in this class of newcomers. But so what? Dark horse? Today, this dark horse has to die on the Dao battle platform.
Time passed again, and on the mountain road made of golden light, two figures stepped forward. Many eyes were cast at the same time, falling on the two of them.
Ning Xuanyuan walked in front, and Pang Zi followed behind.
Today's Ning Xuanyuan is dressed in white, his dark hair is scattered behind his head, and his handsome and delicate face has a faint smile, which makes people look very comfortable. Pang Zi, who was following him, looked quite solemn on his face, with an unconcealable look of worry and nervousness in his eyes.
"It's coming!"
In the crowd, someone snorted softly. The eyes of some of the people became quite indifferent, they were all disciples of the top mountain range. In their opinion, Ning Xuanyuan dared to challenge Chen Zifan, not only was he arrogant and did not know whether he was alive or dead, but also humiliated them.
The eyes of the people in the other area were a little complicated. They were all disciples of the Second Layer Mountain Range, so they knew Ning Xuanyuan better. As soon as he stepped on the second mountain range, this guy who abolished Hong Yuan was going to challenge Chen Zifan today. At this time, their mood was obviously a little contradictory.
They were dissatisfied with Ning Xuanyuan's domineering, but they hoped that Ning Xuanyuan would win. The old man bullying the newcomer is already a tradition that does not become a tradition in the sect. Which of these people has not been oppressed by the old man? So they hope in their hearts that Ning Xuanyuan can defeat Chen Zifan. In that case, it can be regarded as a bad breath for them.
