There are some tall stone pillars standing around the main hall, and next to them are several bronze ancient tripods that are more than one person high, which are inlaid with several fist-sized luminous stones, emitting a soft white light.

After everyone stood still, they saluted the middle-aged man on the chair together: "See Master Yan!"

Master Yan's sleeve robe flicked lightly, and he smiled faintly: "Get up!"

Then Master Yan said slowly: "The purpose of summoning everyone here this time must have been known to most people. The quinquennial competition will be held in a month's time. Sect competitions have been passed down for thousands of years and have always been the main way to select outstanding disciples. The top ten disciples will receive heavy rewards from the sect, and one of them is Ning Yuan Dan. I don't think I need to repeat the importance of this elixir. ”

Many of the disciples below had already begun to whisper, obviously tempting. Although many people already know about this big thing, they heard that Ning Yuandan showed a fiery look all of them, and Liu Yiwen was no exception. The main task in the later stage of Qi refining is to obtain the Ning Yuan Dan to break through to the Condensate Realm, which is the dream of many people here!

Master Yan glanced at the reactions of the disciples and continued with satisfaction: "According to the previous practice, all disciples under the age of thirty-five who have the late stage of Qi refining cultivation can sign up to participate. Even if the sect competition does not enter the top ten, it will be of great benefit to the cultivation in the future if you compete with the same sects from other peaks. So I hope you'll sign up. Also, if you are over 35 years old, don't give up. Although Ning Yuan Dan is rare, it is not only this way to obtain it. There are some tasks in the sect that also have this pill among the rewards, although it is more difficult, there should be a chance. ”

After that, the following discussion is even louder. In particular, Senior Brother Sun Huo's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he obviously had hope for the condensate.

Tang Youan smiled and said to Liu Yiwen: "Senior Brother Liu, although you have just entered the late stage, I heard Senior Brother Wen say that your strength is not bad, do you plan to sign up?"

Liu Yiwen hesitated and said: "Even if it is to sign up, I don't have to think about the top ten, at most I just learn from my brothers and sisters!"

Ye Xiumei said: "Senior Brother Liu doesn't have to be humble, we were all surprised by the last trip to Hundred Beast Mountain?"

Yang Qiyin, Xue Shuang and others on the side were stunned, obviously not knowing what the situation was. Just as they cast inquiring glances, Master Yan spoke: "Give you a stick of incense time to consider, those who are ready to sign up stay, and the other disciples can leave on their own." ”

The nearly 100 disciples below began to discuss, and the disciples who did not meet the requirements naturally left, and Sun Huo and Qi Xiong were among them. There are also those who meet the conditions to give up, and there is Yuan Sulan in it. This made Liu Yiwen puzzled, it is said that she entered the later stage a few years earlier than herself, and there is still hope for a fight.

When the time came, about half of the disciples in the entire square remained, and six of Liu Yiwen's fellow disciples remained here. Master Yan looked at the dozens of people below and said, "Yes, there are a few more people than the previous session." I hope you will do your best to achieve good results. I still have to take a step ahead, and I'll leave the rest to Luochen!"

After that, Master Yan didn't know what kind of body technique he used, and in a few flashes, he arrived in front of a side door next to the stone steps, walked in with a step, and disappeared.

A gray-robed man on the stone steps came to the platform and cleared his throat and said, "I am ordered by the master to explain to you the taboos of this competition. First of all, exercises and ritual instruments that are too poisonous should not be used. Secondly, except for the magic weapon, other things such as elixirs and talismans cannot be used......!

After a cup of tea, Uncle Luochen announced that he could leave after introducing the competition. Many of the disciples below are gearing up, and they have already begun to fantasize about showing their might in the big competition. Liu Yiwen paid special attention to Wei Song, and saw that he was chatting with a girl next to him at this time, and he looked like he was winning. Liu Yiwen saw that his face was like frost, and his eyes flashed.

The disciples walked out of the main hall again, and left with excitement on their faces. Liu Yiwen and several of his classmates had nothing to do all the way, and each went back to his residence.

In the next month, Liu Yiwen rarely went out, and his mind was focused on the cultivation of the Vajra Sword Technique. Senior Brother Wen and Senior Sister Ye also came over to chat with him about some competitions, but there was not much time.

......

He rested very early last night, just to be in a good state to meet today's sect competition. He simply took care of it and went out. Outside the cave, there were already four people standing by the stone platform and talking something.

He greeted with a long laugh, "Good morning, everyone!" and several people smiled and nodded at him.

Liu Yiwen quickly stepped forward and chatted with a few people, and after a while, Qi Xiong, Ding Xiaoshan, Xue Shuang, Tang Youan, and Yin Siling also walked out of the cave.

Feng Shi was a little surprised when he saw Senior Sister Yin and said, "Is Senior Sister Yin going too?"

Yin Siling smiled and said, "Yes, I also want to join in the fun!"

Qi Xiong saw that the people had arrived, and said loudly: "Today's competition, I wish you all victory!"

Liu Yiwen and the seven of them hurriedly said: "Senior Brother Cheng, we will do our best!"

The seven of them were in high spirits, and Qi Xiong said with satisfaction: "Okay! Let's go!"

The location of the sect's competition is under the main peak, just a tea time, and the main peak is already in sight. In mid-air, several people found that the sea of white mist at the foot of the main peak had disappeared, revealing a large open flat land. After flying for a while, they landed in a corner of the square, and they all looked at the test venue:

I saw that in the middle of the square, there were ten circular rings more than two zhang high, and there were more than 20 stone steps around it. These rings are about 20 feet in diameter, and many people are busy around them. On one side of the middle ring is a three-story stone staircase about six zhang high, and on the stone step is a platform that can accommodate thousands of people, and some stone statues of strange beasts are placed on it according to a certain law. The pavilion rises again on the platform, which is a wide observation deck. On the other side of the ring and opposite the observation deck are the auditoriums, which can accommodate 10,000 people.

Looking behind the observation deck, the incomparably large sword-wielding figure stands there, adding to the majesty of the place. Qi Xiong's eyes sparkled, as if he was reminiscing about the situation of the last big competition. The others looked up at the statue from such a close distance for the first time, and their mouths widened in shock. Liu Yiwen often looked at this behemoth from afar, but at this moment, he still felt a sense of worship!

A group of ten people walked slowly towards the observation deck, Qi Xiong sighed: "I can't imagine that it is still shocking to come here again in five years, and I don't know which ancestor had such magical powers and built this stone statue more than a thousand zhang high here." ”
