Chapter Ninety-Two: Coming to the Fore

The Shushan Sword Debate was held in three days.

On the first day, the third-order disciples of the Dixuan Huang other than the Heavenly Rank competed in batches, and the top ten who won among them could participate in the disciple competition within the sect on the second day. The third-order disciples in the sect drew lots again for the retest, and then took the top twelve of them to participate in the Shushan Sword Discussion after the third day, which can be described as the best of the best. Because the Shushan Sword is dealing with foreign disciples, the Shushan faction, as a big faction of the righteous path in the world, and as the host, naturally cannot damage its prestige.

Of course, in fact, in the initial preliminary examination, in fact, the elders of all levels already knew it in their hearts, and there were not a few disciples who were scheduled to participate in the re-examination. But when the time comes, for the sake of fairness, a whole day of competition will still be arranged. The next day's retest, the lottery accounted for part of the luck. If your own cultivation is shallow, and you draw lots to draw an opponent who is weaker than yourself, then you will take advantage of it. However, his own cultivation is in the middle, and the opponent he draws is stronger than himself, so he may also miss the Shushan Sword in three days. This is for some disciples who are not cultivated enough, if their cultivation is profound, then no matter how they draw lots, they don't have to worry.

Over the years, the Shushan faction has lost less and won more, but after the disciple of Tianzi No. 1 entered the critical period of cultivation a few decades ago, the Shushan faction has few opponents who can compete with Lin Junyang of the Qionghua faction. Tang Haoyun, the second master of the Heavenly Rank of this faction, can sometimes win once or twice, but in the previous six years, he won and lost once, and most of the time his strength was equal, and it was difficult to distinguish between the superior and the inferior. Therefore, in this year's competition, the duel between the two has undoubtedly become the biggest attraction for all cultivators.

But the strange thing is that Tang Haoyun's ranking on the Fengyun list is tied for sixth place with Hua Wuxian, two places higher than Lin Junyang. This is the ranking ten years ago, Tang Haoyun was indeed much stronger than Lin Junyang at that time, but this Lin Junyang came from behind, and in the next few competitions, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, all the way to the point where he could keep up with Tang Haoyun. It's just that the list of Longkongmen is rearranged every ten years. After this competition, I'm afraid the list will be corrected.

The most strange thing about this list is that except for Tang Haoyun, the top five people have never known who they are, and they are not what Long Kongmen can change without permission. It is rumored that the person who created this list back then was a master of the world, and he could predict the prophet. It is unknown who he is, but he predicted the top five masters on the list early, which is said to have been predestined for a long time, and it is by no means artificially arbitrary. That list is actually an ancient book, all the masters are recorded on it, and the masters since the sixth place can be found from it. There used to be people who were curious to see the top five masters, but every time they saw it, they would have a headache and feel very uncomfortable.

The iron-masked judge Zheng Qingtian also witnessed this incident in person, and later thought of countless ways, but in the end he couldn't get a glimpse of the mystery. It was stated in the book that the secret of heaven cannot be revealed, and only when the people on the list actually appear, that page will be displayed on its own. But after Longkongmen took over the list, over the years, except for the appearance of the master of the Shushan faction's Tianzi No. 1 a few decades ago. It's on the list. His name is Leng Xing Soul, and he is the fifth person on the Billboard List. However, because his cultivation has reached an extremely critical period, he has not appeared again, as for the current level of his cultivation, I am afraid that no one knows except for the elders and heads of Shushan. Later, in order to crack the secrets, Longkong Gate once recruited strange people and capable people in the entire cultivation realm, but this list was looked at by countless people, but they still found nothing.

The Billboard has been circulating in the cultivation world for more than a thousand years and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. And in this world where the strong are respected, the masters on the list are also the objects of everyone's pursuit and admiration. Of course, the most talked-about thing is who will be the top four masters?

After Song Qingshan introduced these to the juniors, his face was filled with irrepressible excitement and rare excitement. This person who has been in the Shushan faction for many years is actually on the list, and he is only a person ranked after one hundred and fifty, so don't mention it. But after a year of penance, he finally reached the Yuan Infant Stage, which was already an extremely happy thing for him, and judging by his expression, it was obvious that he was extremely confident in winning the first examination.

It's right to think about it, among the Yellow Rank disciples, there are a few disciples in the Yuan Infant Stage, and it may not be easy for Song Qingshan to get the first place, but it is easy to get to the top ten. Seeing the rare joy of this senior brother, Lu Chengfeng and the three of them also congratulated him again and again.

Although the thin monkey and the fat cow, who were registered disciples, could not officially participate in the competition, they were also extremely happy to be able to be a bystander.

The days passed quietly in the expectation of all the cultivators, and soon it was the day of the first test of the Shushan Sword Debate. When Elder Xuanqing announced the list of the three internal disciples, all the Yellow Rank disciples began to make a commotion, and the bottom had already begun to whisper.

"The two senior brothers, Zhang Yang and Lu You, are the best of the Yellow Rank disciples, why is this Lu Chengfeng also determined?"

"That's it, he's only been here in Shushan for a few days!"

"Is it possible that he can pass the initial examination so easily after defeating the Xuan-rank disciple that day?" Elder, I don't accept it!"

It turned out that Elder Xuanqing was determined to pass the first three disciples, and Lu Chengfeng was also included, and even he felt a little unexpected. Although it is not difficult to pass the re-examination with his cultivation, he was still a waste wood that everyone looked down on before, but now in just two years, he is above all the Yellow Rank disciples, and those fellow disciples who have been in Shushan for many years are naturally unconvinced. It is no wonder that this Shushan Sword Discussion is the top priority of the Shushan faction, and each place is extremely important in their eyes. They have been cultivating for many years, in order to stand out in the competition and get the weight of the elders, so it is no wonder that they are so careful.

"We're not convinced...... Not convinced......"

The remarks of the few people just now were obviously approved by all the disciples, and they echoed them one after another. Even if they knew that the elder in front of them was extremely harsh, they didn't give in at this moment.

Elder Xuanqing obviously expected it, but when he saw him frown, he said slowly, "Since ancient times, there has been no order of learning, and the master is the teacher. Although Lu Chengfeng came to Shushan for the first time, he privately challenged the Xuan-level disciples that day, and you have also seen it with your own eyes. A year ago, there was a ghost hall in Liujia Village, and he also personally went down the mountain to investigate and returned victorious. Why are you not convinced?"

"It's true that Senior Brother Zhang Kun has been defeated, but that was two years ago! As for the matter of Liujia Village, Senior Sister Jiang, who has her own Heavenly Rank, and Senior Brother Di, who has an Earth Rank, can not be invincible!"

Among them, there are really masters who are not afraid of death, in order to fight for the place in the re-examination, there are really people who dare to fight with Elder Xuanqing in person.

Hearing this, Elder Xuanqing was also well-known for his good temper today, and he didn't say much at the moment, but just turned his head to Lu Chengfengdao, "Since someone is not convinced, then you have the ability to convince people!"

With Lu Chengfeng's strength, there is actually no opponent for him among the entire Yellow Rank disciples, and his strength is really not at the same level, even among the Xuan Rank disciples, there may not be anyone on par with him. However, if he doesn't make a move, his quota will be replaced by someone else, and he will inevitably spend more time competing with other disciples. In contrast, he is naturally willing to challenge those who are not convinced. In fact, this is the same as the situation of his childhood fight, as long as the unconvinced people are subdued, the others will not dare to say more.

Thinking about it, Lu Chengfeng stepped forward, bowed down and said, "Lu Chengfeng first came to Shushan, and I would like to ask you for more advice!"

The competition of the Yellow Order disciples was in the courtyard of the back mountain, and when they heard that Lu Chengfeng was about to make a move again, all the registered disciples quickly surrounded them. Soon, the whole field was besieged in a big circle.

In the field, after Lu Chengfeng stood for a while, a mediocre-looking Yellow Rank disciple walked out of the crowd. Seeing that he had already pulled out the Xuantie Sword behind him, Lu Chengfeng smiled indifferently and said, "Senior brother, please make a move!"

The man was not polite, but between his breaths, he saw that he was holding the trick in one hand, and the long sword with bursts of yellow light had already stabbed over.

This is actually a competition without suspense for Lu Chengfeng, when the tip of the sword has already touched his chest, he saw that his whole body was shocked, and the pure yang qi immediately roamed all over his body, and between the fluttering robes, the golden light appeared.

Listening to the sound of 'dang', the sword seemed to have pierced the iron wall of the copper wall, and as the golden light around Lu Chengfeng gradually flourished, the dark iron sword in the man's hand was actually bent alive and became a semi-arc in the air. Although he was lucky enough to resist, he couldn't help but retreat again and again. If he let go at this moment, then Lu Chengfeng's pure yang qi would instantly rebound, and if he couldn't dodge at that time, serious injuries were inevitable.

The golden light in the scene was reflected on everyone's surprised faces, and the most surprised was probably Song Qingshan, although he knew the power of pure yang qi, but the cultivation of the yellow-level disciple in the field was already in the late stage of the Dan, Lu Chengfeng didn't even draw his sword, but the other party couldn't parry. With such a big disparity in strength, although he didn't know what level Lu Chengfeng's cultivation had reached, it was by no means as he said, and his cultivation had obviously surpassed him at the moment, so it was no wonder that Elder Xuanqing wanted to determine that he had passed the first test, and there was a reason for it.

Half an hour later, as soon as the two of them retreated and advanced, the sword in the man's hand was trembling again and again. Lu Chengfeng didn't want to waste his true qi anymore, so he pressed his hands at the moment, but the true qi in the sky suddenly exploded, and in the golden light, the disciple had been shocked and flew out. Fortunately, Lu Chengfeng stopped it in time, so that the other party would not be seriously injured, but obviously the victory and defeat have been divided, and there is no need to compare.
