24.Chapter 24

Ling Chen looked at Ling Xian arrogantly, with an unstoppable look on his face.

He has been favored since he was a child, and his qualifications are also good, and he has been determined as the next patriarch, so it is natural to develop an arrogant and arrogant character.

After he heard that Ling Xian had seen through the Canglang Sword Technique, his first reaction was disbelief. He majored in the Canglang Sword Technique that shook Qingcheng, so this sword technique had a very high status in his heart, and he even arrogantly believed that the Canglang Sword Technique was the strongest sword technique in the immortal cultivation world!

However, as more and more people around him began to talk about Ling Xian's Great Breaking Canglang Sword Technique, he personally went to those who witnessed it to verify them one by one, and only then did he have to accept this fact.

On that day, his self-confidence was shattered.

And when he learned that Ling Bai had only cultivated the Canglang Sword Technique to the second realm, his self-confidence healed again.

In his mind, even if Ling Xian really broke the Canglang Sword Technique, it would only be a sword technique of the second realm, nothing remarkable, but he had already cultivated this sword technique to the sixth realm, and the power was ten times that of the second realm, so naturally it was not the same.

Therefore, Ling Chen was bent on finding trouble with Ling Xian, wanting to prove that it was impossible for the Canglang Sword Technique to be broken by a mere fifth-level Qi refining cultivator, but more importantly, it was a kind of jealousy.

He has always been the pride of the Ling family, and he has high hopes for the older generation and is respected and admired by the younger generation.

However, the Ling family suddenly appeared a genius who could see through the Canglang Sword Technique, and in the past few days, all he heard in his ears were those words of praise that praised Ling Xian's outstanding talent and high understanding, and his heart was naturally full of jealousy, jealous of Ling Xian's fame in a fight, and jealous of Ling Xian's peerless talent.

The feeling of falling from heaven to hell made him, who has been loved since he was a child and is used to hearing those words of praise, how can he stand it?

Hence the current scene.

He wants to prove that he is stronger than Ling Xian in front of everyone in the Ling family, let those praises come back to him, and let everyone revolve around him.

Ling Xian looked at the young patriarch with a contemptuous face, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't plan to participate in the competition. ”

"What did you say?" Ling Chen was stunned.

"I said, I'm not going to participate in the joust. Ling Xian repeated, his voice a little louder than before.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

All the onlookers couldn't help but be stunned, and there was an uproar.

"What did he say, not to participate in jousting?"

"I heard it wrong, as a child of the Ling family, how could I not participate in the competition, you must know that this year's rewards are extremely rich. ”

"In my opinion, he is either consciously not high in cultivation and is afraid of losing face, or he is afraid of the young patriarch!"

"Haha, it must be like this, the young patriarch's cultivation is extremely high, he must be afraid that he will not be able to get off the stage!"

Listening to the criticism in his ears, Ling Xian frowned slightly, but he didn't bother to explain, because he didn't take the so-called young patriarch in front of him to heart at all.

He has great ambitions, above those thousands of clouds, he is not as short-sighted as Ling Chen, who would actually regard the Canglang Sword Technique as a supreme magic technique, is simply a frog at the bottom of the well.

"Listen to what they said, you must be afraid of this young master, waste is waste!" Ling Chen's face was full of disdain, thinking that he was cowardly.

Ling Xian's expression was flat, and he didn't plan to talk nonsense with him, so he said lightly: "Whatever you think." ”

"Haha, Ling Xian, even if you don't participate in the competition, this young master will not let you go, I not only want you to lose face in front of everyone in the Ling family, but also abolish your cultivation and let you be the waste that you can't cultivate!" Ling Chen smiled fiercely, and the words he said could be described as extremely vicious.

Ling Xian had no intention of fighting with him, but he was unrelenting, not only to make Ling Xian embarrassed in front of everyone, but also to abolish his cultivation and make him a mortal again!

What a ruthless mind, such a person is also worthy of being the next patriarch of the Ling family?

Ling Xian's eyes were cold, and he was about to show his invincible magic appearance, slapping Ling Chen to death, but suddenly heard a loud shout, which sounded like thunder on the ground.

"The hour has come, the competition begins!"

Third Elder Ling Tianao floated down from the high platform, he waved his robe, and a boxy box fell to the ground, and said, "All the children who participate in the competition will come here to draw the battle number." ”

"Hmph, you wait, this young master will definitely make you look good. Ling Chen thought of that vicious plan in his heart, and turned around and walked to the martial arts arena.

The rest of the Ling family disciples lined up in a long line, walked to the martial arts arena in turn, and pulled out a wooden token from the square box, because there were only forty-eight people participating in the competition this time, so the numbers from one to forty-eight were written on it.

Soon, forty-eight people all finished drawing, asking each other for the numbers of familiar friends, worrying about strong enemies, and shouting luck when they met weak ones.

"Very well, I don't think I need to go into the rules, you all know very well. The third elder glanced at the energetic Ling family disciples in the audience, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Now, let me talk about the rewards that you care about very much, the rewards of this year's competition are extremely rich, I think you have heard of it." ”

"The first place in the competition, a Qingcheng Secret Realm token will be awarded, and three Qi Condensation Pills will be awarded!"

"The second place in the competition, a piece of Qingcheng Secret Realm Token will be awarded, and the first three cultivation techniques of the Canglang Sword Technique!"

"The third place in the competition, a Qingcheng Secret Realm token will be awarded, and two thousand spirit stones will be awarded!"

"The fourth to tenth places in the competition, each will be rewarded with a forty-percent solid pill and a four-percent condensing pill!"

When the children of the Ling family below heard such a rich reward, Rao had already heard of it, and they couldn't help but get excited at this time, and they looked at the three elders with blazing eyes, and they were full of energy, wanting to compete for the top three rankings.

Even the three descendants of the lineage, who are not short of cultivation resources on weekdays, can't help but sway, the secret realm token is nothing, even if they are careless for a while and can't win the top three positions, the family will secretly send them over, what really makes them excited is the three pieces of the Sixty Cheng Qi Condensation Pill and the three pieces of the Sixty Cheng Pei Yuan Pill!

For this competition, the family can be said to have made a bloody investment, six percent of the two pills of condensation and Peiyuan, they have only been able to get one a year since they were young, but this time, they took out six at once, how could they not make these three people excited?

However, Ling Xian pouted slightly, a little speechless.

Qingcheng Secret Realm Token?

He already had.

Sixty percent of the medicinal effect of the Qi Condensing Pill?

He can refine seventy percent of the medicinal effect with his eyes closed, and with a little snack, eighty percent is just a hand!

Is this also called abundance?

Of course, for those children of the Ling family, it was indeed rich enough, but for him, it really couldn't arouse even the slightest interest.

"Okay, without further ado, the competition has officially begun!" The third elder smiled slightly and said, "Those who have drawn No. 1 and No. 48 should go to Ring No. 1, and those who have drawn No. 2 and No. 47 should go to Ring No. 2, and so on." ”

After his words, the children of the Ling family in the martial arts arena either looked sad or eager to try, and stepped into their own ring.

The first game of the competition officially began.

The daughter of the second elder, Ling Fei, the favorite to win the championship, was in the first game, but before she could get into the ring, her opponent directly abstained and admitted defeat, and Ling Xian, who was ready to watch the excitement in the audience, was depressed.

She became the fastest winner in the first game.

Next, the other five rings were also quickly divided, with the winner in high spirits and the loser frowning.

The second game of the competition then began.

This time, the other two descendants are among them, Ling Zhan's opponent has a cultivation of the fifth layer of qi refining, if he didn't meet him, he should be able to win the top ten rankings, but unfortunately he met Ling Zhan in the second game, and barely lasted ten rounds, and was knocked out of the ring by Ling Zhan with a punch.

And the young patriarch's opponent, like Ling Fei in the first game, didn't even show his face, so he directly abstained, leaving Ling Chen to stay on the field proudly, accepting the gaze of one after another.

That look of showing off his might, Ling Xian shook his head and smiled, the opponent took the initiative to admit defeat, although he realized that he was not your opponent, but was it necessary to be so proud?

A truly strong man will not be proud of his opponent running away without a fight, but will only be ashamed.

Shame on the cowardly one!

The primary election ended quickly, and twenty-four people competed in the next round, gradually reducing from twelve to six, and then from six to three, and the rest happened to be the three favorites to win the championship.

Immediately, Ling Fei fought against Ling Chen, this time, she knew that she was invincible to Ling Chen, so she fought perfunctorily for a few rounds, and then fell generously and directly admitted defeat and ranked third.

Now it's time for the final championship match!

But Ling Xian didn't have time to watch, he searched for Ling Hu's figure in the crowd, at first he thought that Ling Hu would participate in the competition, but until now, he didn't see him appear in the ring, so he turned his attention to the crowd of spectators who did not participate in the competition, but still did not find Ling Hu's figure.

"Why didn't he come to participate in the competition? Could it be that something happened?" frowning, Ling Xian was a little worried, it was said that Ling Hu should not miss this competition, especially since he had specially explained to him that he must win the secret realm token.

Eighty percent of them were accidental.

"At that time, I should have followed him to buy the spirit pill, could it be that someone found the huge amount of spirit stones on his body and was hijacked? Or, what happened to the eldest lady?" Ling Xian thought wildly, and was not in the mood to continue watching the excitement, and walked eagerly towards Ling Hu's house.

However, he had barely taken a step when he was stopped by a figure.

It was Ling Bai.

He looked at Ling Xian with a resentful expression, and said sarcastically: "Hey, is the genius who broke the Canglang Sword Technique trying to escape?"

"It's none of your business. Ling Xian didn't want to entangle with him.

"Why is it none of my business?" Ling Bai smiled and said, "The young patriarch told me before, if you want to escape, let me stop you, and besides, I also want to see your self-esteem in front of the whole clan, tsk, it must be very exciting!"

"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, hurry up and get out of here!" Ling Xian snorted coldly.

"I'm not going to go, I'm going to watch you be humiliated by the young patriarch!" Ling Bai smiled hatefully.

Ling Xian didn't speak, just looked at him coldly, and that gaze full of murderous intent made him shudder.

At this moment, a burst of cheers sounded, the first place in this family competition had been produced, Ling Chen used the Canglang Sword Technique that had been cultivated to the sixfold realm, defeated Ling Zhan, who was not good at defense, and won the first place in the competition.

He stood proudly in the No. 1 ring, enjoying the continuous cheers, and he was proud and unstoppable.

"If you want me to be embarrassed in front of the whole clan, this is the best opportunity......" Ling Xian's eyes flashed, and he understood what Ling Chen meant by making himself lose face, if at this moment of great attention, he challenged himself, and he failed, then he could indeed ruin his reputation.

Sure enough, as he expected, Ling Chen's eyes flashed with a hint of pride that the conspiracy was about to succeed, and he looked at Ling Xian in the audience with contempt, and shouted, "Ling Xian, do you dare to come up and fight?"

The cheers stopped abruptly, and there was silence in the arena for a few seconds, and then everyone's eyes looked at Ling Xian in unison, with expectation and pity.

"Sure enough, since you don't know what to do, then don't blame me for beating you into the abyss. ”

Ling Xian's expression was calm, and a killing intent like ten thousand years of cold ice, accompanied by his cold words, gently came out, instantly igniting everyone's passion!

"Do you dare to come down and die?"
