Chapter 21: The Ring Competition

After eating, Wang Xiaokan drank another cup of fragrant tea, and then walked to the west of the city unhurriedly. Anyway, the time that Xiao Er told him was three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still very early, so he should find a place to sell the herbs first.

It cost another twenty taels for dinner just now, and Wang Xiaokan still has about one hundred taels in his pocket. Although there is still some money, but if it continues to be spent like this, I don't know if I can still hold on to the Bixia Sect to accept disciples. It's not always a way to sit and eat empty, and if he doesn't make some extra money, he's afraid that he will have to drink the northwest wind.

It was still the old way last time, Wang Xiaokan changed his face slightly, and found a Lingcaotang to sell two Qingzhi, and after some hard bargaining, he got five spirit beads and five taels of silver. I saw that this spirit bead was round and slippery, like the marbles that Wang Xiaokan played with when he was a child, it was not very big, and the color was not translucent enough, but it was light gray-white, cold and silky in his hand, with a slight coldness. It's pretty comfortable, though.

I heard from the shopkeeper that this spirit bead contains spiritual energy, otherwise the cultivation realm would not use it as currency. And it can also be used for direct cultivation and absorption. Although there is not much aura in it, it is suitable for a pre-cultivation of qi like him.

"Alas, I didn't expect the silver in the mortal world to be so worthless in the eyes of cultivators! Those are two Qingzhi, and they are worth more than five hundred taels of silver when they are all exchanged for silver. The two Qingzhi, which were both bigger and more intact than the last time, actually only got such a few spirit beads!" "Wang Xiaokan, who had recovered his original appearance, was so disgusted that he wanted to vomit blood in the face of the pitiful things in his hands!

His last Qingzhi was sold for a full two hundred taels of silver, two hundred taels! Unexpectedly, one hundred taels of silver was actually worth only one spirit bead!

Just now, Wang Xiaokan specially learned about the price here: one hundred spirit beads are only worth one low-grade spirit stone, and one hundred lower-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a medium-grade spirit stone! Suddenly, Wang Xiaokan felt that it was a long way to wait for him to touch the legendary spirit stone.

This made Wang Xiaokan completely understand how poor he was!

"Alas, it seems that I still have to find some useful elixir to sell in the future, otherwise, I will really become a poor egg!" Wang Xiaokan muttered to himself, striding towards the ring in the west of the city.

Before he had taken two steps, Wang Xiaokan heard a sound of horses' hooves behind him, which startled him, and when he looked back, he found that a carriage was speeding towards him from the left rear.

When he got closer, he realized that it was not the horse he knew was pulling the cart, nor was it the Bixi horse he had ridden before, but it was also an animal that resembled a horse. The shape is very similar.

Before he could take a closer look, the car was approaching, and he couldn't think too much, and as soon as he made a mistake on his toes, he used his spiritual power to float to the back of the crowd, so that he had time to take a closer look at this unique car.

"This is the frame of the Li family's son, right? Look at the red wildebeest pulling the cart, it is a good horse that travels thousands of miles a day and is of a very high grade. ”

"But it's not! The pomp of the eldest prince is really big enough, the carriage is also luxurious enough, the green jade carving, the embroidered top, each of which is a priceless treasure, this handiwork, is really big enough. ”

......

Looking at the luxury convoy that was going farther and farther, Wang Xiaokan looked envious: I don't know when I will have such a big dignity?

It's a pity that now he only has so much money, and he can't even eat, let alone want to make a show. Alas, I don't know when such a delusion will become a reality?

Shaking his head and sighing, Wang Xiaokan put away his untimely imagination, lowered his head and left here quickly, walking towards the west of the city.

From afar, Wang Xiaokan saw the blood-red banner of the "big ring", although it was a little vulgar, but it was definitely eye-catching enough, so that people could know what place it was at a glance.

However, he remembered that Xiao Er had told him that the only place in Xianyan City where public brawls were allowed was divided into two places, one was this big ring, where the martial arts competition during the period of not recruiting disciples and the defending competition during the opening of the mountain and the apprenticeship were all held in this ring, and the other was the "dueling platform", which was in the east of the city. It's a real life-and-death duel, and you have to sign a life-and-death certificate before you go on stage!

Regardless of the life-and-death duel, the rules of the big ring are what many people rush to: usually there is a fee for competitive competitions. However, the ring is open for free for six months before each opening of the mountain and the acceptance of apprentices, and all those below the fourth level of Qi training can participate in the arena!

Those who can win 100 consecutive games in the big ring can be upgraded to become a defender, and the defender can choose to directly participate in the second level when Bixia Sect recruits apprentices!

No more than 10 Guardians must be selected to defend the Ring before the last 18 days, act as Guardians, and accept the challenge of the Quartet!

If the final result is that the defender successfully held the ring for 18 days and was not beaten out of the ring. Then after he enters the Bixia Sect, he can get the qualification to cultivate once in the Linglong Pagoda!

You know, it's a delicate tower!

The influence of the environment of the cultivation realm on immortal cultivators is directly manifested in the aura. If the aura of a place is sufficient enough, it can even pile up the cultivation speed of a waste material of a five-spirit root, which is not much compared to those geniuses; on the contrary, if the aura of a place is insufficient, even if it is a genius with a single spirit root, and if it lacks spirit stones to assist in cultivation, its cultivation speed will not be fast. This is the "land" in the "wealth and romance" mentioned in the world of cultivating immortals.

It can be seen how important the aura of a place is to the cultivation of cultivators. If it weren't for the fact that these secret realms were incomplete in the Heavenly Dao, they couldn't sense the thunder tribulation inside, and there were no conditions for crossing the tribulation and ascending, I was afraid that everyone would be squeezed into the secret realm.

Some secret realms are also incomplete and unstable, and monks beyond the level they can carry cannot enter. Forcibly entering will even cause the secret realm to rupture, and the monks who enter it will be torn to pieces by the shattered space, no matter how strong their mana is.

They can't live in a secret realm where the space is turbulent and the aura is unstable, but the cultivation realm, where the aura is depleting day by day, is not enough to provide enough aura for cultivators, and immortal cultivators have to find an environment with more abundant aura to cultivate.

Linglong Pagoda is one of them.

If the aura of the border town is one, the aura of Xianyan City is one hundred, and the aura inside the Bixia Sect is at least one hundred! But these are not as good as the Linglong Tower, and the aura in the tower is at least one thousand!

Although the abundant aura of the Linglong Pagoda is coveted, it is not so easy to enter the Linglong Pagoda, and everyone can only enter the Linglong Pagoda once in their lifetime! It is because of such harsh conditions that the Linglong Pagoda has not disappeared in the greed of human beings, but has been protected more and more carefully.

And these have also contributed to the world's diligent pursuit of the Linglong Pagoda, all of them are eager to get the qualification to go to the Linglong Pagoda, and those who get the qualification will be eager to impact the most important realm in the Linglong Pagoda, because this is the safest!

Now, the Bixia Sect is actually taking the Linglong Pagoda as a reward so lavishly, no wonder whether it is a disciple of the Bixia Sect or not, they are eager to fight in the big ring, not only to make a name for themselves, but also for the Linglong Pagoda.

Wang Xiaokan, who wanted to hear these at the beginning, was amazed by the deep background of Bixia Sect, but also resented himself and regretted not being at the beginning.

However, even if he arrived six months early, with his cultivation at the first level of Qi cultivation, it was estimated that he would not be able to survive the time when the defense was successful!

Thinking about it like this, Wang Xiaokan felt a little more comfortable and had the desire to listen.

It's a pity that in front of the Linglong Pagoda, any reward is nothing, and it can't compare to one ten-thousandth of it at all! However, since the opening of the Bixia Sect, there are very few people who have won the quota to enter the Linglong Pagoda in the ring competition. It's not a genius who is lucky, and it's hard to hold on for that long.
