Ling Xiao knew that Bai Feifei hated him to the core, so how could he not take some precautions?
Unfortunately, with that stupid woman Bai Feifei's brain, she probably didn't think of this. She really thought he was an idiot.
"Ling Xiao —!"
"Ling Xiao —!"
After the competition ended, the crowd burst into frenzied cheers.
Ling Xiao defeated Bai Feifei.
An early-stage Transcendent Realm Sixth Level martial artist defeated a half-step Heavenly Master!
This caused a huge reaction among the Yuehua School's disciples, and Ling Xiao suddenly became the most popular one.
Of course, there were also people who secretly cursed Ling Xiao for being despicable and shameless for using underhanded means to win the competition.
However, such voices were soon drowned out by the cheers.
After Ling Xiao defeated Bai Feifei, the selection competition came to an end.
After a few more battles, the final forty spots were finally selected.
Together with the ten seeded contestants, there were a total of fifty people, all of whom were qualified to enter the Moonlight Pagoda.
Among the people Ling Xiao knew, Dai Yuling, Zhao Zhi, Shangguan Lei, Leng Hao, Ming Tian, Bai Feifei, Wu Yang, and Qin Wu, all of whom were qualified.
Of course, Zhao Zhi really did it because of Ling Xiao's secret help. Otherwise, he would have been eliminated.
Because of this, he admired and respected Ling Xiao even more.
Among the other ten seeded contestants, Ling Xiao only knew two of them, Shen Tianlin and Tantai Lingzi.
The trouble was that he didn't have a good relationship with these two people.
However, Ling Xiao just frowned slightly and didn't think about it anymore.
He had even offended Bai Feifei, and these two people were even weaker than Bai Feifei. What was there to be afraid of? At most, he would be more careful after entering the Moonlight Pagoda.
Of course, a quota was only a quota. Although there were 50 people who had obtained the opportunity to enter the Moonlight Pagoda, only a few of them would be able to obtain benefits from the Moonlight Pagoda in the end.
There were probably no more than ten of them.
"In the next three days, the Sect will be holding a celebration for the Moon Arrival Festival. The fifty of you can have a good rest and prepare yourselves. Gather here again on the morning of the fourth day. If anyone is late, they will not be able to participate in the Tower Ascension Ceremony!"
The dignified and cold voice of Yuehua School's headmaster, Chang Yueying, reverberated throughout the hall.
As the Sect Leader, he really had to have this kind of aura. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to control people.
With that, the powerful auras left one after another.
… …
Now that the qualification contest had ended, there were naturally people who were happy and people who were sad.
Some of the people who didn't get the qualification looked sad, and some even cried bitterly.
This was because they knew very well that the earlier they participated in the Tower Ascension Ceremony, the more they would be ahead of the other disciples.
"Senior Brother Ling, I can't thank you enough. If it weren't for you, I definitely wouldn't have gotten this opportunity."
Zhao Zhi felt like he was in a dream.
Among the 50 people, his cultivation level was the lowest.
Even among those who were eliminated, there were many who had a higher cultivation level than him.
But he actually passed.
Of course, other than his hard work, the most important thing was Ling Xiao's help.
If it weren't for Ling Xiao, he definitely wouldn't have been able to make it to the end.
Becoming friends with Ling Xiao was the wisest thing he had done since he was born.
Although he had some conflicts with Ling Xiao when he first joined the Sect, it was fortunate that as a member of the royal family, he was a smart person whose goal was to inherit the throne.
He wisely chose not to aggravate these conflicts and even gradually became closer to Ling Xiao.
Although they couldn't be considered life and death friends now, they were absolutely considered very good friends.
If not for Ling Xiao secretly giving him pointers on his martial arts and giving him martial arts secret manuals, he really wouldn't have been able to reach this step today.
In addition, in today's competition, there were clearly people targeting him, but they were also resolved by Ling Xiao.
This kindness was really not something that could be clearly expressed verbally. He would remember it in his heart.
Although he had a master too, and this master was even the Inner-Sect Hall's hall master, Empyrean Heavenly Eye, his imperial uncle.
But Empyrean Heavenly Eye had too many disciples under his command. It was simply impossible to focus on imparting martial arts to him. Ling Xiao was more like his master instead.
Dai Yuling's thoughts were actually about the same as Zhao Zhi's.
Actually, Ling Xiao's kindness to her was much greater than Zhao Zhi's.
When she was in the outer-sect, her Martial Soul was forcefully crippled by someone. It was even Ling Xiao who helped her take revenge and bestowed her an even stronger Martial Soul.
She smiled bitterly in her heart. Perhaps only by offering this life to Ling Xiao could she repay his kindness.
Walking together with them, there was also a Zhao Ci.
Zhao Ci's heart was filled with intense unwillingness.
She did not understand why Ling Xiao, this unscrupulous fellow, would become stronger and stronger, while she, this kind-hearted person, suffered setbacks time and time again, and was even almost killed by the people she had once helped.
She really had some doubts about society now.
The outlook on life and worldview that she had always established also collapsed with a loud bang.
Of course, the one who was most jealous was probably still Mingtian.
Back then, at Master Baiyun's place, he still firmly suppressed Ling Xiao. But now, Ling Xiao could defeat Bai Feifei.
Although Bai Feifei that dumb woman being too stupid was the biggest reason.
But Ling Xiao's cultivation was actually even stronger than his. This made Mingtian unable to accept it.
The intense flames of jealousy in his heart continuously burned. His two eyes even became blood-red in color.
"Head Elder, I agree to your request. I'm willing to listen to your arrangements and do that thing!"
Mingtian looked at Elder Jin and gritted his teeth.
"Are you sure? Once you do that thing, you will lose your human nature. You might even lose your emotions and become an existence no different from a Direbeast! "
Elder Jin narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Even if I become a Direbeast, I want to be stronger than him!"
Mingtian nodded heavily.
"Alright, since you've already made your decision, then follow me!"
…
After parting ways with Zhao Zhi and Dai Yuling, Ling Xiao went to Yang Danlin's place. Because he still did not understand some details about the pagoda ascension ceremony, he needed to ask this old Hall Master.
"Hahaha, kid, you're really good. You even defeated that girl Bai Feifei. But you have to be careful. What happens inside the Moonlight Pagoda cannot be seen from the outside. Be careful of her secretly harming you!"
Yang Danlin was laughing heartily at first. He was very happy, but his expression soon became serious.
"Don't worry about this, Elder Yang. If Bai Feifei obediently doesn't provoke me, nothing will happen to her. Otherwise, when she comes out, she'll be a cripple!"
Ling Xiao said coldly.
"Hehe, kid, what did you do to her? Forget it, there's no need to talk about the details. It's fine as long as you're safe."
Yang Danlin smiled and said, "If I'm not wrong, you're here for the details of the pagoda ascension ceremony, right?"
"That's right. What will happen during the pagoda ascension ceremony? And how will the results be determined? "
Ling Xiao asked.
The Moon Arrival Festival was held once a year. Naturally, the pagoda ascension ceremony was also held once a year.
