Chapter 12 The Outer Gate begins with a big competition
If you want to become an inner disciple, you must either become a wizard and then perform the tasks of the sect, or you can participate in the outer door competition, get the top 100, get the qualification of the inner door selection, and let the big guys in the inner door see the cultivation value in the inner door selection, and then be directly accepted as an inner disciple.
Zhang Baijian originally had the opportunity to directly become an inner disciple, but he was unwilling to inherit the sword path of the Sword Shou Elder and gave up this opportunity. Listening to the news from Li Changgeng, Elder Jianshou had already accepted Gu Lang as an apprentice, and he could be regarded as getting his wish.
There are tens of thousands of outer disciples, but the number of people who have obtained the qualification for the inner door selection is only one hundred, which can be described as one in a hundred.
It stands to reason that some outer disciples who are expected to cultivate on their own to become wizards should give up this path. But in fact, the inner door selection is ostensibly choosing inner disciples, but in fact, this is the only way to become a descendant disciple. Only when he receives enough attention in the selection of the inner gate and blooms with extraordinary brilliance can he be accepted as a disciple by the Nine Great Peak Masters, and only in this way can he be qualified to become a descendant.
Only by becoming a descendant can one be qualified to cultivate one of the four great masters of Yujing Mountain.
In the past, the 100 outer sects were basically Guiyuan wizards who had already built a foundation, and few disciples who were still practicing qi had obtained a ranking within 100. This time, Zhang Baijian was also not optimistic about the competition, and some familiar outer disciples were mostly with the mentality of focusing on participation.
Perhaps there is only Li Xuanyi who has confidence in Zhang Baijian, except for Li Changgeng, who has left the mountain.
In three days, Zhang Baijian successfully entered the top 500 with one person and one sword, and he was only one step away from the quota selected by the inner door.
At this time, Zhang Baijian's name emerged among the outer disciples. In the past, the new disciples were the first, but they didn't get much attention. After all, each batch of new disciples is more than thousands, less than dozens, and standing out from these people is nothing.
At this moment, the opponent standing in front of Zhang Baijian was a swordsman.
Yujingshan is due to the reason that "Heavenly Immortal Sword" is a unique school of the town faction, but whoever uses a weapon, there is a best chance that he chooses a sword. Therefore, there are very few people who cultivate the rest of the blades, and swordsmen are especially rare. But if an unappreciated swordsman can break into the front five hundred of the outer gate, then his sword skills must be extraordinary.
"Zhang Baijian. ”
"Niu Fan!"
After simply announcing his name, under the gaze of the deacon of the outer gate, Zhang Baijian fought with the swordsman Niu Fan.
As soon as he fought, Zhang Baijian noticed that Niu Fan was extraordinary, although his cultivation was only the eighth level of Qi cultivation, it was not as high as Zhang Baijian's. But his sword technique has reached the realm of realizing the sword, and the sword light contains the true meaning of the sword, and the power is far better than Zhang Baidao's sword technique.
And although Zhang Baijian's swordsmanship has been polished by the sword aura in the sword forest, and gradually shows his edge, it has never completely transformed.
Clang!
The violent impact knocked Zhang Baijian out of the air, and Niu Fan's knife technique contained an almost tragic indomitable spirit, this kind of domineering that only belonged to the knife was almost exerted by him to the extreme.
"What a strong knife. Zhang Baijian held the long sword, and the blade of the sword trembled constantly.
Niu Fan's eyelids drooped slightly, as if he was asleep.
Looking at such Niu Fan, Zhang Baijian suddenly thought of a sentence 'Guan Gong doesn't open his eyes, he will kill people when he opens his eyes'.
Isn't Guan Gong exactly the master of the sword technique, the martial saint of the sword path?
"I practiced swords at the age of seven, fought with the steppe wolves at the age of eight, and at the age of ten in the silent and dark place, I realized the meaning of the knife without regrets. Your swordsmanship is good, the best I have ever seen among the outer disciples, but unfortunately you are still not my opponent. Niu Fan seemed to be saying unrelated words. But Zhang Baijian could feel that his momentum was climbing towards the peak.
The first weight of the knife is momentum, the momentum is like a rainbow, and the knife is invincible.
"I have a knife, which is the summary of my sword, I hope you will taste it. Niu Fan's knife had been returned to the scabbard, but Zhang Baijian knew that his strongest blow was being bred.
The sharpest blade is better than hiding it in the sheath.
Zhang Baijian raised his long sword horizontally and gathered his mind.
Scold!
There was a crisp knife sound, a silver knife light.
"Kill the slaughter!"
In a trance, Zhang Baijian seemed to see the birth and extinction of everything, this is a knife to extinguish hope, according to legend, from one life to two, two to three, three to all things. And Niu Fan's knife is to kill the one who gives birth to everything.
It is like a sword, and the sword is the first of a hundred soldiers, just as it evolves into all things, and the sword also evolves into various weapons.
And Niu Fan's style of 'killing and slaughtering' is aimed at swordsmanship, and it is a summary of his sword skills in the past ten years against swords in Yujing Mountain.
In the face of such a knife, Zhang Baijian actually forgot to take out the sword.
Because he found that no matter where his sword came from, it would be suppressed by this sword.
In the Sword Forest, Zhang Baijian has seen a lot of swordsmanship, and those swordsmanship may have been extremely powerful in the hands of their masters, but at the same level, they can't break Niu Fan's 'Kill and Slaughter'.
Niu Fan created a knife move in the realm of the sword, although it is not unprecedented, but it is also an extraordinary genius.
Between the lightning and flint, Zhang Baijian's sword finally sorted.
Scold!
Zhang Baidao's sword blade rippled with a cold light, but this cold light was no longer an aimless drifting snow, it was more like a continuous river, even if it was sealed by cold ice, when the ice thawed, it could still swell huge waves.
After breaking through in the battle, Zhang Baijian finally found his meaning and entered the realm of Wujian.
What he has in mind is a sense of perseverance, and no matter what kind of obstacles lie ahead, he will always be consistent.
In the same way, no matter how many times the 'one' of the derivative avenue is severed, he will always find it again, and then reorganize it and get back on the road.
Niu Fan's knife was caught by Zhang Baidao's sword, and the blades of the two met in midair, and a stream of aura exploded where the two blades collided.
Burst!
Niu Fan vomited blood and was knocked out of the arena.
Holding a long knife, Niu Fan half-knelt on the ground with a blank expression.
"I lost!"
"But your sword didn't lose, it's just that your Qi refining level is not as high as mine. Zhang Baijian said.
"Your sword is not bad, I'll come back to you again!" Niu Fan was not discouraged by the loss.
"Okay! I'll wait for you!" Zhang Baijian readily agreed, although it was only a short fight, Zhang Baijian learned a lot from Niu Fan, and some things were even enough to benefit him for a lifetime.
Finally comprehended his sword path and entered the realm of sword enlightenment, Zhang Baijian was in a very happy mood.
At this moment, a coquettish voice sounded.
"Senior Brother Zhang, I didn't expect you to be in the top 300, and you are only one step away from being able to participate in the inner door selection, which is really surprising. The one who spoke was a girl in a red dress, but her face looked slightly mature, a little more charming than an ordinary girl, and she always attracted the attention of the young disciples around her.
"Senior Sister Xie!" Zhang Baijian arched his hand, not salty or light.
The girl in red stepped forward and was about to reach out to hold Zhang Baijian's arm, but Zhang Baijian was slightly dodged.
"Senior brother, are you complaining that I haven't been to see you recently?" The girl in red looked at Zhang Baijian with an aggrieved expression, and some of the young disciples around looked at Zhang Baijian and gritted their teeth for a while.
Zhang Baijian took a step back, a sneer on his face.
"Xie Yuyao, I used to regard you as a friend in the past, but you have always only been using me, why do you put on such a posture now?"
The red-clothed girl's face changed slightly, and she smiled reluctantly: "What did Senior Brother Zhang say? Senior Sister can't understand, do you really want Senior Sister to beg you, are you willing to forgive Senior Sister?"
"Why was Gu Lang able to successfully apprentice to the Sword Guard Elder, wasn't it because you taught him my sword practice method?" Facing the disgusting woman in front of him, Zhang Baijian really didn't have the mood to make a fool of himself with her.
The girl in red finally changed her face completely this time, and her expression gradually became cold, and she no longer had the previous flattery.
Xie Yuyao used to be the first friend Zhang Baijian made in Yujing Mountain, and even had a trace of hazy affection for her. It wasn't until Xie Yuyao knew that Zhang Baijian couldn't practice qi and began to distance himself, and then because of Zhang Baijian's excellent swordsmanship, he deliberately approached again, that Zhang Baijian gradually saw the true face of this woman. It's just that Zhang Baijian still has a trace of fantasy about it, so he compiled his sword practice tips into a book and handed it to her.
After that, Zhang Baijian was hit by a series of blows, and he was surrounded and almost killed on the cliff. The reason is that Zhang Baijian is valued by the Sword Shou Elder, and the Sword Shou Elder wants to accept Zhang Baijian as a disciple. Gu Lang sent this woman to take Zhang Baijian's sword practice method, and then designed to kill Zhang Baijian and replace him.
After several accidents, if Zhang Baijian still didn't understand what was going on, he would have lived two lives in vain. What's more, Zhang Baijian also has the Cave Heaven Treasure Mirror that pierces people's hearts in his hand.
Facing Zhang Baijian's gaze that pierced his heart, Xie Yuyao finally said: "What's the matter? I'm just making the right choice! Originally, you are the most brilliant of the new disciples, which makes me have some expectations for you and some investment in you." Who knew that you turned out to be an embroidered pillow, fortunately you still have some use value, let me get back some costs, but it is not in vain the scheming I paid before. ”
When the words fell, Xie Yuyao's face changed again and became red.
The strange sights around made Xie Yuyao almost feel like she was wearing no clothes.
"How can you be so impulsive?" In the chaos, Xie Yuyao's thought flashed.
"You wait for me, Senior Brother Gu Lang will definitely let you know what a true genius is, and even if you kneel at my feet at that time, I won't look at you again. Dropping such a sentence, Xie Yuyao hurried away.
In the crowd, Yang Hao walked out and spat thickly.
"Phew, scheming,!"
Zhang Baijian's face was slightly embarrassed, this word was naturally told to Yang Hao by Zhang Baijian.
"It should have been Senior Brother Yang's means just now!" Zhang Baijian looked at Yang Hao with a smile and said.
Yang Hao nodded proudly: "That's right! The little trick of confusing the heart made that scheming and appear in its original form, which was very happy." ”
