Chapter 165: Captain's Challenge
"From now on, Ning Xi is the captain of the shadow guard, commanding the entire shadow guard, and there are ten team leaders under the captain, each leading nine team members......"
Lu Chengfeng's words quickly set off an uproar, although Ning Xi was said to be the most talented person, and his cultivation was about to reach the late stage of the Innate Realm, but such a young person, even if he had the experience of serving as a thousand-commander, even if his cultivation was almost at the late stage of the Innate Realm, they still had a somewhat skeptical attitude.
The most important thing is that among these cultivators of the Innate Realm, there are always a few people who are a little arrogant, and seeing that such a young cultivator can actually get the favor of the bureau seat and directly serve as the captain of the shadow guard, there is some unconvincing in his heart.
Lu Chengfeng looked at these shadow guards with a smile, this situation, he had already expected: "I believe that some of you will definitely be unconvinced, I am not an arbitrary person, if you are not convinced, you can come to challenge Ningxi, if someone can defeat Ningxi, why not let you be the captain......"
Lu Chengfeng's words were like a drop of water falling into an oil pot, which immediately made these shadow guards react even more.
To be precise, in the entire system, Lu Chengfeng is a little out of place with other people, and even a little capricious.
After all, appointing an official has always been from the top down, and it is rare to be able to influence the decision of the boss from the bottom up.
But Lu Chengfeng is now willing to give them a chance to challenge, so that many people are eager to try, especially those who have already stepped into the middle stage of the innate realm, after all, although Ning Xi is now about to enter the late stage of the innate realm, but after all, he still hasn't taken that step, as long as he doesn't take that step, the gap between them will not be too big, and they, the cultivators in the middle of the innate realm, also have a certain chance of success.
Moreover, even if the challenge fails, they don't have much to lose, but if the challenge succeeds, they can directly serve as the captain of the entire shadow guard, which is a great thing for them.
For the challenge that Lu Chengfeng said, Ning Xi naturally didn't have any meaning, after all, he also knew very well that if he wanted to successfully serve as the captain of this shadow guard, he must first obtain the approval of these shadow guards, if he himself could not convince the public, even if he served as the captain under Lu Chengfeng's power, I am afraid that he might not be able to lead the entire shadow guard well in the future.
Moreover, Ning Xi had basically been practicing in the Lu Mansion before, although he had now stepped into the middle stage of the Innate Realm, he had basically rarely fought with others, and now this happened to be a very good opportunity, not only to allow him to convince the public, but also to make him more aware of his strength.
Moreover, cultivation is never done behind closed doors, and blind retreat is not a good thing, and it is only in real battles that they can improve themselves faster.
Don't talk about those, because at this moment she is already eager to try, even Ning Xi himself is a little impatient, some hands are itchy, and he wants to challenge it.
Especially in front of him, most of these cultivators in the middle of the Innate Realm were slightly inferior to him, and they were very suitable for using them to practice, although there were also a few relatively strong opponents, he still had a lot of confidence in his strength.
Besides, Ning Xi himself is also a very strong person, if he just explains to an opponent who is weaker than himself, I'm afraid he will also be bored!
Only when the challenge is at the same level as oneself, or even stronger than oneself, can it be more challenging and exciting.
Especially after Ning Xi experienced the previous family changes, he didn't pay so much attention to external things such as official positions, and he clearly realized that if a person wants to be truly strong, he can't just rely on the power in his own hands, only his own strong cultivation is fundamental.
After all, no matter how powerful you are, there will eventually be a day when you lose it, but if you have an extremely high level of cultivation, you will have a greater possibility.
As for Lu Chengfeng, he was naturally looking forward to the challenge between Ning Xi and these shadow guards, after all, the cultivation realm could only roughly estimate what level a cultivator belonged to, and there was no way to truly reflect the specific strength of a cultivator in battle.
After all, in a battle, there are many factors that affect the final result, and it is not that you can achieve the final victory by cultivating a higher level.
In particular, some cultivators are not very talented themselves, but through pills or other means, they can reach a higher realm, although their realm is improved, but their own strength is still weaker than other cultivators of the same level.
And now, whether it is these shadow guards or Ning Xi, after making a breakthrough, he has not really seen their true strength through a battle, so now this is also a very good opportunity.
After all, as the direct leader of the entire shadow guard, if you don't have a clear understanding of the strength of your subordinates, it is really unqualified.
"Bureau, I'll come first. ”
One of the cultivators in the middle of the Innate Realm took the lead in holding back his patience and challenged Ning Xi beside Lu Chengfeng, and the battle between the two sides was about to break out.
Lu Chengfeng nodded at the cultivator and motioned for him to be allowed to fight with Ning Xi.
And Ning Xi is also a very principled and personable person, making a gesture of please to let the other party strike first, and this is also a manifestation of his confidence in his own strength.
That cultivator in the middle of the Innate Realm was also not polite, because he knew very well that the young cultivator in front of him was a very powerful opponent, and since the other party asked him to strike first, he was not polite.
This cultivator also used a sword that ordinary cultivators generally liked to use, and that sword was not worth mentioning at all for a great cultivator of the Foundation Building Realm like Lu Chengfeng, but for a cultivator in the middle of the Innate Realm, it could greatly improve their strength.
Lu Chengfeng also knew that this cultivator attached great importance to Ning Xi, and was even afraid of it, otherwise he would not have unleashed such a powerful attack in the first place, although it was definitely not his hole card, but it was not far away.
And this also means that the battle between the two can reach a white-hot stage in a short period of time, and then quickly end the battle with lightning speed.
Although this battle had just begun, for a great cultivator like Lu Chengfeng, who had built a foundation realm, he could already see the final ending.
In the face of the attack of that cultivator in the middle of the Innate Realm, although Ning Xi also attached more importance to it, he did not have any panic, but took the lead in analyzing the opponent's offensive before making a move, and then made a corresponding counterattack, which can be regarded as relatively old-fashioned.
Even when Lu Chengfeng saw this scene, he was amazed by Ning Xi's performance, not only because of Ning Xi's own talent, but most importantly, if he wanted to achieve such an effect, he must have the perseverance of an extraordinary cultivator and work hard in this aspect.
When the shadow guard's attack was about to reach Ning Xi's face, Ning Xi quickly counterattacked with lightning speed.
And this counterattack was extremely accurate, seizing the shortcomings of the opponent's fierce attack, and then came out on top and gained the upper hand.
This made the shadow guard very surprised, he didn't expect the other party's counterattack to be so fast and accurate, so that he was now in a disadvantageous situation.
This also made him realize very clearly that he really wanted to see this young man who had been a thousand-commander, although he was older than the other party, but he was indeed inferior to the other party in some aspects.
Although he hadn't given up fighting back at the moment, he had already recognized the young man in front of him in his heart.
However, at the moment when he was surprised, Ning Xi made a more violent counterattack, the sword in his hand was cold, and before he could react, the sword appeared in front of him.
The shadow guard hurriedly stood in front of him with the sword in his hand to block Ning Xi's attack, although it was not fatally injured, but the huge force directly bombarded his body, and the huge impact directly lifted him out.
This scene made the other shadow guards around them surprised, they really didn't expect that Ning Xi, who also belonged to the middle stage of the Congenital Realm, would be so powerful, just two moves, and defeat the introduction of the middle stage of the Innate Realm.
Although some shadow guards knew very well that that one shadow guard could not be Ning Xi's opponent, they did not expect to lose so quickly.
It can be said that Ning Xi has been recognized by many shadow guards now, and many cultivators in the middle of the innate realm who were ready to move before are also silent at the moment, and only one or two of the strongest shadow guards are still holding the intention of challenging Ning Xi.
But now Ning Xi had already put a lot of pressure on them, and they also realized that Ning Xi was definitely not an ordinary cultivator in the middle of the Innate Realm.
No wonder the bureau said that Ning Xi was about to reach the late stage of the Innate Realm, and it turned out that Ning Xi was only one step away from the late stage of the Innate Realm.
"I admit that you do have the qualifications to become the captain in terms of cultivation......"
That one of the strongest cultivators recognized among the entire shadow guards was also about to reach the late stage of the Innate Realm, and his strength was probably between Ning Xi and Ning Xi, if there was a real fight, it was really hard to say who would definitely be able to win.
So when that cultivator stood up, the other shadow guards cheered, and they were very much looking forward to the battle between the strongest person recognized among the shadow guards and Ning Xi.
The most important thing is that they are very curious about the true strength of Ningxi, and they don't know how strong this young man who has just arrived is?
Not to mention other shadow guards, even Lu Chengfeng himself is very much looking forward to it.
