Chapter 25: Tournament

Yiqi Juechen flew into Qingyun City.
The Wudian competition ceremony will be held in one month. According to the rules, students who participate in the competition ceremony should start registration one month in advance.
A month ago, a conversation with Elder Zhuang Nantian made Luo Xiu understand that if he wants to stand out and gain the attention and cultivation of the Martial Hall, he must show his strength and talent.
The annual martial arts competition is undoubtedly the time for Wudian students to show their strength and talent.
It didn't take long before Luo Xiu came to the Wudian and went to the registration site.
When he arrived, many Wudian students had already gathered here, but most of them were onlookers. Most of the students who signed up for the competition were students of intermediate and advanced classes.
"Every year there will be a ranking in the martial arts competition. I heard that as long as you can get the top three, the rewards are extremely rich." said a young man in martial arts uniforms.
"Big Brother Zhao is now the seventh body refining, I don't know if he also plans to participate in the martial arts competition?" Someone asked with a smile.
"Of course you want to participate. Although there is little hope of getting the top three, the most important thing is to show your talent and strength on the martial arts stage, and you can also get the attention of the top of the martial arts!" said the young man proudly.
Luo Xiu followed his reputation and saw that the young man in martial arts was the middle-level student, Zhao Liang, who was betting against him in the black stone tablet area.
When gambling against each other, Zhao Liang had the sixth level of body refining, and now he has reached the seventh level of body refining.
"There are a lot of masters in the intermediate and advanced classes. I heard that as long as you can get into the top ten, you can get rewards of vitality stones and pills!"
"If you enter the top five, you can even be accepted as a disciple by the elders of Wudian!"
"Hey, if you get the top three, I heard that you can get personal guidance from the master of the martial arts hall, and you have the qualification to choose a fourth-grade martial arts!"
Many people are discussing with each other, and all kinds of generous rewards have made many Wudian students excited.
Each of the elders of the Martial Hall is a congenital martial artist, with a high position in the middle of Qingyun City. If he can become an elder disciple, he is a status symbol.
The master of the Martial Hall, for many Martial Hall students, is a legendary existence. He is the number one master of Qingyun City, and it is said that he has surpassed the innate!
Especially the rewards of the fourth-grade martial arts are even more shocking and exciting.
However, everyone also knows that it is very difficult to enter the top three in the martial arts competition, because the martial arts competition will be held once a year. Those who have participated in the martial arts competition in previous years and won a good place, with the help of the rewards they have received, their cultivation strength has been leaps and bounds. Far open the gap with others.
However, if the cultivation base breaks through to the sea of ​​air, or if he is over eighteen years old, he will not be able to participate in the martial arts competition, otherwise there will be no comparability at all.
The population in Qingyun City is hundreds of thousands, and there are countless students in the Wudian Temple. There are hundreds of people who have attained the seventh level of cultivation alone.
Beside the registration point, a stone monument was erected with the names of Wudian students from low to high.
This stone tablet is the ranking list of Qingyun City Martial Hall.
There are only fifty places on the leaderboard, and the minimum requirement is eight-fold refining. Many people gather next to the leaderboard stone.
Luo Xiu stared at him and saw the number one on the leaderboard, named Xu Qiusheng!
Hearing from people around him, Xu Qiusheng is 18 years old this year, and he is a disciple of the elder guarding the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. His cultivation has reached the peak of nine levels of physical training, and his internal strength, martial skills, and body skills are all three martial arts of cultivation.
From second place to tenth place immediately below, they are all eighteen years old, and their cultivation bases are all nine layers of body refining.
In the Martial Hall, eighteen years old is a threshold. If you exceed the age of eighteen, you will no longer be a Martial Hall student, and the Martial Hall will not continue to train. A very small number of talented people who have reached the Qi Hai realm can become Xiaoyaomen The outer disciple of, is also the lowest threshold for outer disciples.
As for Luo Xiu, almost no one knew that his cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level of body refining, so he was not named on this ranking.
"There is still a month left."
Time is like flowing water, Luo Xiu's figure flashes in the dense mountain forest, and a set of thunder-rushing swordsmanship is displayed by him. It can be described as pure fire, flowing clouds and flowing water, sword light breaking through the sky, it is almost impossible to catch the trace with the naked eye.
"boom!"
Under the blessing of the inner energy, a big tree was knocked down by his sword, and the sky was covered with dust.
During this period, he went to Lu Mengyao to absorb the power of the flame several times, and his inner Qi was pure and vigorous to the extreme, and he could break through the impact of the Qi Sea Realm at any time.
However, Luo Xiu suppressed his cultivation and did not break through, because once he broke through, he could no longer participate in the martial arts competition.
Luo Xiu didn't want to miss the chance to enter the library and choose the fourth grade martial arts.
In the past few months, Luo Xiu's experience is very different from before, especially his temperament is different, his brows are sharp and sharp, and his whole person is like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed.
"Chang!"
Returning the sword to its sheath, Luo Xiu wiped the sweat bead on his forehead, exhaled a sigh of breath, and secretly said, "Except for the people like Chen Hu last time, I haven't encountered any attack during this period."
He experienced in the Baqi Mountains, usually deliberately avoiding those warriors hunting in the mountains, and has the special ability of life perception. It is naturally not difficult to do this.
...
Qingyun City, Zhang Family Mansion.
"boom!"
With a loud noise, the closed gates of the mansion were instantly torn apart, a group of people filed in, clanging voices lingered, everyone drew their swords and rushed into the mansion.
The Zhang family is also a famous family in Qingyun City, and naturally trained a group of guards, one by one at the moment like a big enemy.
There were a total of twenty people who broke into Zhang's house, and each of them was wearing blue armor, and a fierce aura surging invisibly, full of oppression.
"Qing Jiawei?" Approaching hundreds of Zhang's guards, his face changed drastically.
Of these Zhang Family guards, the highest strength is the 9th Body Refining. Although the number is five times more than the opponent, many people's bodies begin to tremble.
Because Qingjiawei is a guard that belongs to the martial hall, and every one of them is a warrior who has stepped into the air sea realm!
Most of the members of Qingjiawei are also students who graduated from Wudian. These people did not become the outer disciples of Xiaoyaomen, so they joined Qingjiawei.
"Zhang Jiazhi advocates that Shao Xiong is suspected of murdering Wudian students. I will wait for Qing Jiawei to come here, and get out of the way if I don't want to die!"
A brawny man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was the captain of this group of blue armored guards. He gave a cold shout, and his voice was thunderous. Before he did his hands, he made the guards of the Zhang family on the opposite side retreat in fright.
After separating into groups, Zhang Shaoxiong walked out with a gloomy expression, "Captain Han, what do you mean by bringing someone into my Zhang family mansion?"
The Qingjia Guard captain surnamed Han was expressionless and coldly shouted: "I came by the order of Elder Zhuang. You should explain to the elders that you are suspected of murdering Wudian students."
As he spoke, the Captain Han waved his hand, "Take Zhang Shaoxiong, the elders have orders, if there is resistance, let's kill him!"
Zhang Shaoxiong's face changed drastically. He knew very well that once the charges of murdering Wudian students were convicted, he would definitely be sentenced to death, and the entire Zhang family would suffer, and he might even be removed from Qingyun City!
However, he quickly calmed down. The Zhang family was able to stand tall in Qingyun City. Naturally, it was impossible to have no background. He believed that as long as the ancestors came out of the mountain, Zhang family would be assured of worry-free.
Thinking of this, Zhang Shaoxiong didn't resist, and let the Qing Jiawei take him away, otherwise the group of Qing Jiawei who obeyed the orders of the high level of Wudian would really kill him.
After the Patriarch was taken away by Qing Jiawei, the Zhang family was in chaos. Zhang Shaoxiong's younger brother, Zhang Shaohai, took up the seat of Patriarch.
"The Zhang family can't be without an owner for a day. Before the eldest brother came back, I would act as the master of the expert!" Sitting on the throne of the owner, Zhang Shaohai's mouth had a sneer. He waited for this day, too long!
"If the ancestor came out to protect the eldest brother, the position of the head of the family is not mine after all. Only when he dies, the position of the head of the family will truly become mine!"
He attracted his confidant and said: "Take a few people to Panshi Town and arrest Na Luo Xiu's family."
...
Finally, the most eye-catching martial arts competition in Qingyun City Martial Hall every year is about to begin.
In the martial arts arena, near the martial arts stage, almost all the students in the entire martial arts hall gathered. Not far from the martial arts stage, a loft was built with seats on it, which are seats for the upper level of the martial arts hall to watch the martial arts ceremony.
As time went on, more and more people came, and in the spectator stand above the attic, in addition to the elder guarding the library, four elders including Elder Zhuang also arrived.
"Hall Master is here!"
Following the exclamation from the crowd, everyone looked up and saw a figure dressed in purple, stepping in the air, flying directly into the attic and sitting down on the main seat in the middle.
"Flying in the air, flying across the sky, this is a legendary method!"
"I heard that the master of Wudian has already far surpassed Xiantian, and he is a veritable Qingyun City number one master!"
Luo Xiu was also among the crowd below, and he was also shocked by the methods displayed by the Lord of the Martial Hall.
Flying in the sky, flying across the sky, when will I have such strength?
"quiet!"
Suddenly, the elder Zhuang Nantian in the attic stood up and said loudly, "The good time is here!"
"According to the rules of the competition ceremony, a lottery is adopted for one-on-one elimination matches. Those who draw the same number will compete on the stage. There are no restrictions during the competition until one of them concedes defeat or falls from the stage."
"Competition in martial arts, swords have no eyes, but you must not kill, otherwise you will be disqualified from the martial arts, expelled from the martial arts hall, imprisoned, and held for ten years!
As Elder Zhuang announced the rules of the competition, a wooden box was immediately carried to the competition stage. All students participating in the competition proceeded to draw lots.
Luo Xiu reached into the wooden box and took out a paper ball. After unfolding it, it said ninety-eight.
There are ten competition platforms, and those who draw one to ten will compete first.
The winner advances to the second round.
There are more than 300 people who signed up for the competition, which means that more than 100 people will be eliminated in the first round!
And between each other, no one knew who their opponents were.
"Now, the competition begins!"
As the elder announced, a group of people leaped up and landed on the competition stage.
