Ling Xiao looked at Tantai Lingzi with a smile. He didn't quite understand why this woman seemed to have malicious intentions towards him.
However, since the other party had already threatened him, he naturally wouldn't be afraid.
Even if it wasn't low, with his current strength, it would be harder for the other party to kill him than to reach the heavens.
She wasn't a Heaven Realm expert, so why was she pretending?
The rules of the Tower Ascension Ceremony's qualifiers were very simple. They would draw lots to fight. Those who lost three times in a row would be eliminated, and the rest would advance until there were only forty people left.
The rules were very simple and clear. They just had to keep winning. Even if they lost, they couldn't lose more than three times.
Ling Xiao liked this rule the most. It saved him a lot of trouble. After all, it was just a qualifier. It didn't make much sense to make it too complicated.
…
Soon, most of the higher-ups of Yuehua School gathered in the square.
The entire square of the inner sect was supported by a Spirit Array. After all, the inner sect disciples were all above the Transcendent Realm. Their destructive power wasn't small.
Of course, the Spirit Array on the battle stage was even stronger.
As long as their cultivation didn't exceed the half-step Heavenly Venerable Realm, it was impossible to destroy the battle stage.
There were a total of twenty battle stages in the inner sect square. Twenty battles could start at the same time.
In fact, this wasn't considered slow because the cultivators drawn at the beginning might have a big gap in strength between the two sides. The battle might end in a moment.
As time passed, the strength of the disciples would be closer, and the battle would take longer.
Ling Xiao felt that it was unlikely to encounter a strong opponent at the beginning. Although it was said to be a draw, it was easy for the higher-ups to change the lineup at the last minute.
These higher-ups definitely wouldn't allow a strong battle to occur at the beginning.
There were many higher-ups here today. Ling Xiao had seen and not seen all of them before, including the Sect Master, Chang Yueying.
However, he didn't see the Moon Maiden.
Thinking about it, the Moon Maiden was the most mysterious existence in Yuehua School. She had to be a little mysterious.
"The Supreme Sect Master has arrived!"
Suddenly, the sky changed color. In the inner sect square, a gust of wind blew. Between heaven and earth, the fluctuations of Spirit Qi became turbulent.
A white-haired old woman appeared with the help of a girl.
Although she walked very slowly, she didn't have any imposing manner.
However, the truly powerful martial artists could feel that her entire being seemed to have merged with the surrounding heaven and earth.
What a terrifying cultivation!
Although they were weaker than the Moon Girls, they were stronger than the rest of the Yuehua School students.
He should be a Grotto-Heaven realm expert.
"Master!"
When Lan Yu 'er saw the old woman, she ran over excitedly.
So she was Senior Sister Lan's teacher. He didn't expect her to be the Grand Headmaster of Yuehua School. She should be the previous Headmaster.
Ling Xiao thought to himself.
What made him sigh with emotion was that this Yuehua School was indeed a school founded by women. The three strongest people in the school were actually women.
Moon Maiden, Supreme Sect Master, Sect Master Chang Yueying!
Although the old woman looked old, the strange thing was that there were no wrinkles on her face. Her hands were also very bright. Only the silver hair on her head showed her age.
"Welcome, Supreme Sect Master!"
Chang Yueying stood up and saluted the Supreme Sect Master with the rest of the higher-ups.
"Hehe, you're welcome, you're welcome. All of you, sit down. I'm just an old woman who has retired to the second line. I'm here today to see the performance of my second disciple."
The Supreme Sect Master's original name was Chang Yueli.
In her life, she only took in three disciples.
The eldest disciple was Chang Yueying, the current Headmaster.
The youngest disciple was Lan Yu 'er, who was seen as a strong competitor for the next Headmaster.
The second disciple's name was Bai Feifei.
This girl was said to be The Flame Deity's adopted daughter.
This made Ling Xiao think of a person. That person was Master Bai Yun's daughter.
Master Bai Yun had his daughter at an old age. However, on the day of his daughter's birth, his wife was killed and his daughter was taken away.
Now, it was confirmed that this matter was done by The Flame Deity.
Master Bai Yun and The Flame Deity both had the surname Bai and belonged to the same family. This girl also had the surname Bai and was The Flame Deity's adopted daughter. From this, it could be seen that Ling Xiao's guess was most likely correct.
On the surface, Bai Feifei's cultivation seemed to be at the early Transcendent Realm Third Layer, but Ling Xiao noticed that she should have cultivated a secret martial art that could hide her cultivation.
Her actual cultivation had reached the half-step Empyrean Realm, even higher than Lan Yu 'er's!
Terrifying aptitude!
She might be older than Lan Yu 'er, but she was only about twenty years old. It was amazing that she could cultivate to the half-step Empyrean Realm.
However, thinking about it, it was normal. To be accepted as a disciple by the Supreme Sect Master, how could her aptitude not be good?
Bai Feifei had been cultivating with Chang Yueli and had never participated in the Sect's ranking competition, so she was not a True Disciple.
This time, Chang Yueli did not let her enter the seeded contestants. Presumably, she wanted to let him, the Second Disciple of the Divine Palace, show his strength publicly.
As for the deeper purpose, it was unknown.
Of course, Ling Xiao was too lazy to delve into it. In any case, he had only promised to help Master Bai Yun find his daughter. Now that he saw Bai Feifei was fine and living such a comfortable life, Master Bai Yun must be very happy.
Leng Hao, who was standing behind Heavenly Venerable Golden Light, also turned his gaze to Bai Feifei, a trace of worry on his face.
In fact, his cultivation speed could already be regarded as terrifying. He was definitely a genius among geniuses. His current cultivation was only at the early Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer, so the rumors among the disciples could not be completely believed.
The Flame Deity still did not appear, but Meng Yuan, Ming Tian, and Shen Tianlin had all arrived.
The three of them stood behind Elder Jin.
Obviously, while The Flame Deity was recuperating, Elder Jin had completely become their backer.
Ming Tian's cultivation was even more terrifying than Leng Hao's; after all, his cultivation was originally higher than Leng Hao and Ling Xiao's.
Now, he was already at the early Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer. This kind of cultivation speed was extremely rare.
However, facing these two so-called geniuses, Ling Xiao just smiled faintly.
Thinking back, his goal was to surpass Ming Tian, but now his cultivation had easily surpassed Ming Tian's.
Of course, for geniuses like Ming Tian and Leng Hao, cultivation did not represent strength. Even if they encountered an opponent one realm higher than them, they could still easily win.
But even so, they were still left behind by Ling Xiao.
Now, Ling Xiao's goal had become The Flame Deity!
If he surpassed The Flame Deity, he didn't believe that the Yuehua School wouldn't treat him like a treasure. When the time came, he wouldn't have to worry about The Flame Deity seeking revenge.
"Ling Xiao, are you confident you can defeat Ming Tian?"
Dai Yuling asked.
"Ming Tian?"
Ling Xiao didn't answer and just smiled faintly.
There were too many geniuses. Even though Ming Tian was very outstanding, Bai Feifei, Lan Yu 'er, Ren Xingtian, Yue Ren, Tantai Lingzi, and Meng Yuan were not inferior to him.
Ming Tian was only one of them.
