Chapter 80: The Seed
When Wang Xian drove Peng back to the vicinity of Zongmen, he saw that there were still two hours left, so he went to Dandongfang City and bought some expensive materials for refining middle-grade high-grade, middle-grade, low-grade runes and low-level high-grade runes, intending to use the last five or six months before the trial to refine some more runes.
In the battle between Baishamen and Xingxingxia, he felt the power of the middle-level talismans, and from the spell methods of the Xuan talismans, he selected several spells that he liked more and refined the talismans.
In the past six months, Wang Xian has only been to the enclosure once to add some fire spirit food to Chixiapeng. Baishamen still sends fire spirit food every three months, and Wang Xian also informed the master of the Zhu Sect of Baishamen, saying that he may have to participate in the trial this time, if there is no news within half a year after the trial, he will ask the master of the Zhu Sect to use the jade card to send a large number of monks in the Qi refining period to escort Cao Xudong and Luo Cheng from Zhonglong Mountain.
Wang Xian planned to send Cao Xudong and Luo Cheng to Baishamen for a few years after he had built his foundation. Let the master of the Zhu Sect rub off their spleens and surnames, and have a chance to make friends. In the end, he sent a favor to the master of the Zhu Sect, asked him to subdue the two of them, stay in Baishamen to serve, and build Baishamen into a sect with the strength of taming beasts, and enhance its strength.
This time I went to the place of trial, and the sect passed the trial competition, picking one in a thousand and selecting disciples. Even so, the mortality rate of the disciples who have always participated in the trials is not small, so Wang Xian arranged in advance to prevent accidents.
Nearly half a year has passed, and it is only five or six days before Hua Tianzong's trial of the Great Competition. Up and down the South China Peak, the atmosphere is also more enthusiastic. The monks at the end of Qi refining had all finished their retreats, and like Wang Xian, those who wanted to sign up had already registered through the transmission note. These monks came out one after another to inquire about the situation and make final preparations for the competition, and all kinds of news flew all over the sky for a while.
Wang first came to the enclosure and found Li Qinglin and wanted to talk to him. Li Qinglin saw that he hadn't seen Wang come first for so long, and the enclosure had been rented without returning, which was also a little strange, but he didn't dare to ask more.
When he was a mortal, he often wandered between the three religions and nine streams to practice medicine, and he knew how to advance and retreat, seeing that Wang Xian was coming to him now, he must have wanted to find out the news of the trial competition, and after the two exchanged pleasantries, they immediately entered the topic, basically Li Qinglin was talking about some recent hot news endlessly.
The registration for the trial competition has ended seven days in advance, and the total number of applicants this time is 382. Six people should be decided from among them, and together with the other people from the outer gates, thirty-six people should be formed, and twelve people from the inner gate should be decided to compete for twenty-four places.
Hua Tianzong, as a top-level sect, was allocated twenty-five trial places in the Xia Kingdom. It is said that another direct election quota that does not participate in Dabi has been decided, and it is a little junior sister of the inner gate. This junior sister was the youngest in the end of Qi refining, only sixteen years old, but she was the only granddaughter of the Huatian Sect Sect Master and the Yuan Infant Ancestor Zhang Ganquan.
Zhang Ganquan's only son, Zhang Fangfang's father, was a late cultivator of Jindan, but during a catastrophe, he didn't survive for some reason and died. And his daughter-in-law, Zhang Fangfang's mother, also unfortunately died in a battle between the inner and outer gates. Therefore, this little junior sister has always been personally taught exercises and swordsmanship by Zhang Ganquan, who pities her background.
She is gifted, quiet as a quiet orchid, glamorous and incomparable, born with the Heavenly Spirit Root of the Ice Spirit Root, and her cultivation is extremely fast, which is impressive. Originally, she didn't need to participate in the trial, Zhang Ganquan wanted to give her a few Zhuji Dan, but there was no problem at all. But she didn't give up, she insisted on participating.
It turned out that she had used the Foundation Building Pill to build the foundation and broke through the nine-layer consummation realm at the end of the Qi Refining Period, but she did not succeed in building the foundation and became a rare tenth layer in the Qi Refining Period, stuck in the middle of the foundation building.
She believes that this must be due to her lack of experience in dangerous situations and the test of life and death. So, insist on taking part in the trial. The sect master had to leave it to her this time.
Originally, she also signed up to participate in the trial competition, but since she reached the tenth layer of the Qi Refining Period, her strength was equivalent to three or four Qi Refining Stages, and she was invincible in the Inner Gate to sweep the Qi Refining Period. No one in the inner gate wanted her to participate in the big competition, so they simply asked the sect to give her a place, and no one would disagree.
According to the practice of previous years, the disciples of the inner and outer gates had to compete for the trial places together. In this way, one can let the strong peak disciples of the outer gate seize the quota of the weak peak disciples, and the tenth place of some strong peaks is stronger than the first place of some weak peaks, in order to select the real strong ones, the sect gives the strong peak more opportunities.
Second, the outer door can know the gap between the outer door and the inner door, and spur the outer disciples to concentrate on cultivation. Although there are many fewer people who participate in the trial competition at the inner door than those from the outer door, often the people who participate in the inner door can win the quota, and those who are eliminated are those from the outer door, which makes the outer door very convinced.
Every time there is a big competition, the sect will designate a small number of people who have performed well in recent years as seed monks when they are grouped. This is not only to select the truly strong ones, but also to give more opportunities to those who usually perform well in the sect, and to encourage the monks to contribute more to the sect.
This time, the sect appointed twelve seed cultivators, namely the top ten stewards and the newly advanced deputy stewards of the end stage of qi refining, Huang Jie and Dai Haijun. Ye Haifeng, the deputy steward of the second group, who was originally ranked second in the group, unexpectedly failed to successfully advance to the end of Qi refining within a year, and lost his qualification to become a seed cultivator. As long as these twelve seeded monks win consecutive battles, they will all enter the final round, and they will not play against other seeded monks in advance.
The reason why the sect determined that these twelve people were seeds, and the top ten stewards were because their strength was obviously ahead of their peers, Huang Jie and Dai Haijun, two new seventh-layer disciples at the end of Qi refining, could be ranked in front of several other eighth-layer disciples at the end of Qi refining, and it was somewhat selfish to be designated as seeds.
Liu Jingjian summoned the first group and the fourth group of stewards and deputy stewards, and later the fourth group did not enter the top three, and was not summoned by Xiao Zizheng, the peak master of Huatian Peak, which made Liu Jingjian feel that the fourth group may not be without grievances.
This time, give them a chance, as long as He Xiaohong and Dai Haijun can win and keep the top 12 positions and the last round of competition qualifications, and Wang Qingfu and Guo Yuan are eliminated, it proves that the fourth group was taken away from the third place in the group task list by the tenth group, and even He Xiaohong was taken away from the third place in the personal group, which is indeed wronged.
Liu Jingjian didn't want to question Fengtang's investigation results clearly, but Wang Xian alone completed the task of the previous four or five Qi Refining Terminal Stage Cultivators, which was indeed a bit unbelievable, and he didn't believe it all the time, so he had to try it through this method.
Huang Jie and Dai Haijun have rich experience in fighting methods, and they are both practicing Huatian Gong, and there is also the support of other sects and the Xiuzhen family behind them, as long as there are a few powerful mysterious weapons, it is completely possible to defeat the eighth-layer cultivator at the end of Qi refining.
As for Guo Yuan and Wang Xian, they were not favored by Liu Jingjian, Liu Jingjian checked the entry and exit records and task completion records of Hua Nanfeng, and knew that Wang Qingfu and Guo Yuan in the tenth group did not participate in the 18th and 7th tasks, and the third place in the group had nothing to do with him. And Wang first won the second place, but he was full of dissent.
Even Liu Jingjian himself suspected that Wang Xian did not complete the Baishamen task alone. Although the results of Fengtang's investigation did not find that outsiders were interfering, Liu Jingjian knew that there were policies and countermeasures, and the forces behind Wang Xian could enter Baishamen first and help in the battle as a Baishamen assistant monk, so that they could secretly help Wang Xian without violating the law.
Liu Jingjian only has the right to investigate the various records of Hua Nanfeng, but he does not have the right to see Fengtang's detailed investigation report, so he is not satisfied with the reply given by Fengtang and will be suspicious.
Except for these twelve seed monks, the distribution of other monks was determined by the deacons of the sect by drawing lots at will. Among the mid-stage Qi refining cultivators this time, nearly 100 people also signed up, and the sect accepted it correctly. Through the fighting method, let them know the gap, and it is okay.
The competition of the sect stipulates that those who seriously injure their opponents will be disqualified from the competition, and those who will kill their opponents will be expelled from the sect. Therefore, participating in the trial competition is not very dangerous.
For the sake of fairness, these hundred or so mid-stage Qi Refining Cultivators will encounter the Late Qi Refining Stage Cultivators in the first round. Therefore, the monks at the end of Qi refining who participated in the big competition all hoped that if they met a mid-stage Qi refining monk in the first round, they would be able to enter one round and count one round.
Even if he did not win the top six in the preliminary trial of South China Peak in the trial competition, he was qualified for the second round of trial competition of South China Peak. However, in the preliminary test of South China Peak, being able to enter the first few rounds is also a sign of strength in the peak.
I heard that ten years ago, the big competition was also a six-round competition, and as a result, there were many five-round monks and four-round monks, which were quite respected by the same sect in the peak. Of course, a round of monks is quite embarrassing.
