Chapter 280: Confrontation between the Strong
As soon as Zhang Xiaomai and Shangguan Yanran arrived at their cave mansion, Zhang Xiaomai received a letter from the butterfly paper crane at the beginning of the summer, inviting Zhang Xiaomai to the Liangyi faction performance hall to discuss matters related to the competition with the Putuo faction.
After Zhang Xiaomai settled Shangguan Yanran, he left the cave mansion and flew all the way towards the location of the Law Acting Hall.
As soon as he entered the performance hall, several eyes instantly converged.
Zhang Xiaomai looked up and saw that there were eight disciples who had already come to this Dharma Hall, divided into two groups, four people on the left and right stood in place, seemingly opposing each other, and the three people on the left Zhang Xiaomai had long been familiar with them, namely Xiao Jian, Xia Chudie, and Yun Chulong, but when he saw the fourth person, Zhang Xiaomai felt a little surprised, it was actually Sun Zhanyuan, who was defeated with difficulty in his own selection competition, and entered the Tao with martial arts.
Seeing Zhang Xiaomai's figure, Xiao Jian snorted coldly, Zhang Xiaoxiang bowed to Xia Chudie and Yun Chulong, and when he saw Sun Zhanyuan, he also said hello.
It's just that Sun Zhanyuan didn't answer, his eyes were fixed on a disciple opposite, with an angry and humiliated look on his face.
"Senior Brother Xiaomai, I have recently exerted my might in the Five Elements Mountains, and I have served as the deputy leader of the Five Elements Alliance, and my reputation is far and wide, even I, the senior sister in the Liangyi Sect, have heard the heroic deeds of many junior brothers, which is really gratifying. ”
Xia Chudie looked at Zhang Xiaomai's face, with a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and there was a hint of appreciation in her pretty eyes.
However, this kind of appreciation is also fleeting, after all, the disciples of the lower courtyard of the Liangyi faction, put into their original sects, are the elite of the elite, and it is not an exaggeration to call them the pride of the sky, so with Zhang Xiaomai's achievements, in the eyes of Xia Chudie, it is only a faint appreciation.
"Senior Sister Xia is polite, it's just some trivial things. Zhang Xiaomai replied.
"I wonder who these people are?"
Zhang Xiaomai looked at the four people opposite, he always felt that the people on the opposite side were all ill-intentioned, and these four people, like his own side, were not inferior to the top three masters of the lower court of the Liangyi faction.
"Senior Brother Xiaomai, let me introduce you to ......" Senior Sister Xia Chudie made a gesture very elegantly.
"This one is the junior brother of Sun Potian, who is ranked fourth in strength in the lower court of the Putuo faction. Xia Chudie pointed to a slender man with eagle eyebrows.
"It turns out that you are the Liangyi Sect disciple who defeated Sun Zhanyuan in the selection competition, haha, you have been looking up for a long time!" The disciple emphasized his tone on the words "defeat Sun Zhanyuan", and seemed to be very proud.
Sun Zhanyuan's face was white and red, his eyes were red, and his whole body began to tremble, as if he was extremely humiliated.
This Sun Zhanyuan seems to be with this Sun Potian, what is the story between the two, Zhang Xiaomai saw this scene, and said secretly in his heart.
"This Yan Qingcheng junior sister is the third-ranked master of the Putuo Sect's lower court. ”
At this time, Xia Chudie pointed his arm to the next young disciple, Zhang Xiaomai saw it, but it was a female disciple, and her complexion was beautiful, tall and tall, not at all under the senior sister Shangguan Yanran, but the whole person had a cold look on her pretty face, like a snow peak on an iceberg, although it was magnificent, it was full of chill all year round.
"This junior sister of Yan Chengcheng, but the Putuo faction is known as the first beauty of both color and art, and there are countless men who want to pursue her. In an instant, Xia Chudie's tone changed, and she actually began to tease the frost beauty in front of her.
Zhang Xiaomai was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect a rare flush to rise on Yan Qingcheng's cold face, but he didn't speak, and his expression remained unchanged.
"Senior Sister Yan. Zhang Xiaomai bowed.
"Senior Brother Zhang. Yan Chengcheng's expression quickly returned to normal and returned the salute.
"This one is Senior Brother Qiao Yanqiao, a rare innate fire spirit root disciple in the lower court of the Putuo faction, it is said that he is superbly capable of controlling fire kung fu with one hand, and his strength ranks second in the lower court of the Putuo faction. Xia Chudie continued.
"Senior Sister Xia is polite, Senior Brother's fire-controlling kung fu is only a small achievement, it is difficult to find an opponent among you and me, and I am superb, I dare not say. ”
Although he said it politely, but when he tasted his words carefully, he actually thought that there was no opponent among the two factions of fire control kung fu, and his tone was extremely arrogant.
Zhang Xiaomai looked at his expression, he was extremely arrogant, his face was about to lift to the sky, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, this is actually a madman.
Seeing this posture, Zhang Xiaomai knew that this person was probably so crazy that he didn't even want to reply, so he didn't bother to salute him, but just nodded to him slightly, but the other party really ignored him, which immediately confirmed Zhang Xiaomai's speculation about him.
"And this last ......" Xia Chudie raised her tone, and her expression instantly became solemn.
"This senior brother is recognized as the number one master in the lower court of the Putuo faction, and he was once able to kill the master of the Yuan Infant in the middle of the Yudan, and his current strength has reached the level of the peak of the late stage of the Yudan, and he may directly enter the Yuan Infant stage at any time and become the youngest disciple of the upper court in the history of the Putuo School. ”
It turned out to be him, Zhang Xiaomai said in his heart.
If it was another disciple, Zhang Xiaomai might still know something, but this Dugu killing, Zhang Xiaomai has heard it many times since he entered the Liangyi Sect.
The surrounding brothers and brothers all mentioned this person's name, and they all changed color.
Even the seniors in the door couldn't help frowning when they mentioned this person.
It is said that this person's surname is very withdrawn and arrogant, but the cultivation talent is very high, rare in the world, not only the innate earth spirit body, but also has a special talent, that is, the extremely strong communication ability with the earth under his feet, and can directly call the earth aura from it, and instantly replenish himself, this point, even the Yuanying masters of various factions, may not be able to do it.
Other young cultivators who enter the Liangyi Sect or the Putuo Sect need to participate in many selections, even if they are geniuses of the innate wood spirit body like Shangguan Yanran, they have to participate in the spirit root test at least once, but Dugu Kill did not, he was originally born in the Iron Brown Sect, a small sect in the Seven Absolute Mountain Range, but even when he was in the Iron Brown Sect, no one could stop his sharpness.
As soon as he joined the faction, Dugu Kill entered the inner gate exceptionally, only three years after joining the faction, Dugu Kill became the first master of the Iron Brown Sect's inner door, and then for another three years, Dugu Kill became the youngest elder in the history of the Iron Brown Faction, and then three years, Dugu Kill defeated the head of the Iron Brown Faction, and for another three years, there was no Dugu Kill opponent in the major factions of the Seven Absolute Mountain Ranges.
Dugu Kill became famous at such a young age, which naturally attracted the attention of various sects, and at that time, the Putuo Sect, the Liangyi Sect and other cultivation giant sects had sent invitations to the head of the Iron Brown Sect, hoping that Dugu Kill would join the sect.
In the face of such a sought-after disciple, the head of the Iron Brown Sect was naturally very proud, after some comparison, the head of the Iron Brown Sect originally arranged for Dugu Kill to join the Liangyi Sect, but after that, Dugu Kill didn't know what the reason, but he chose the Putuo Sect.
Dugu's move to kill undoubtedly made the Liangyi faction who was like Zhongtian feel disgraced at that time, but after all, it was Dugu's choice to kill himself, and it didn't help to be angry.
After that, the Liangyi faction and the Putuo faction of several lower court competitions, the upper echelons of the Liangyi faction all required the disciples to win the competition of the Dugu kill, and then, although the total results of the two factions had won and lost each other, but as long as there was a competition in which Dugu Kill participated, Dugu Kill could always get undefeated results, and the disciples of the lower courtyard of the Liangyi faction could not score a point on Dugu Kill, such a result could not help but embarrass the high-level of the Liangyi faction.
Not only that, Dugu Kill is ruthless, and he has always been extremely ruthless, all the opponents he met in the competition, and finally failed, none of them were not broken and fractured, and became disabled, so the disciples of the lower courtyard of the Liangyi Sect, once they drew Dugu Kill in the competition, none of them were not worried about themselves.
Therefore, the disciples of the lower courtyard of the Liangyi Sect, when they mentioned this person, they were all discolored, and even a master like Senior Sister Xia Chudie, when he mentioned this person, he was also jealous.
"It's been a long time. Zhang Xiaoxiang arched his hand towards Dugu Kill, this is not a lie, this Dugu Kill's big name, he has indeed been thunderous for a long time.
"Oh. Dugu killed a faint sentence, but there was no look on his face.
If Qiao Yan's arrogance came out of his bones, then this Dugu kill's indifference undoubtedly came from his soul.
Zhang Xiaomai only heard this voice, but he felt a deep chill rising from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, Sun Potian, who ranked fourth in the Putuo faction, suddenly spoke.
"Senior Brother Xiaomai, this time I brought our three senior brothers and sisters from the Putuo Sect here, just to visit the masters of our Liangyi Sect in advance. ”
When Zhang Xiaomai heard this, he immediately felt angry.
Where is this here to visit, it is clearly to provoke, to tell you, if you are injured in the game, don't hold a grudge, everything is just a competition.
"If you don't worry about Senior Brother Sun, our Liangyi Sect will naturally not do such a small-bellied chicken intestine. Xiao Jian frowned and said.
After all, he was the head of the three major disciples of the Liangyi Sect, and at this time, it was naturally his turn to respond.
"That's good. Sun Potian said lightly.
Turning to face Zhang Xiaomai, a burst of excitement instantly rose in Sun Potian's eyes, "Senior Brother Zhang, do you know, the results of the first round of the draw have come out, and your opponent is me." ”
Oh, Zhang Xiaomai's gaze instantly looked at this Sun Potian.
"I hope you don't be like someone, you don't even pass the tryouts, at least you have to go through a few rounds in my hands. Sun Potian said sarcastically, but his eyes looked at Sun Zhanyuan on the side.
