When the day of the competition arrived, the entire Blue Cloud Sect was very lively. This was because there was no lack of geniuses among the disciples who joined the Blue Cloud Sect this time.
For example, Li Mengjie, who was chosen by the Supreme Peak, had the Sea Rising Moon Martial Soul, which was extremely rare. She could be called a peerless genius.
Another example was the Yang Realm disciple who was chosen by the Beheading Peak. His Three-Headed Giant Spirit Martial Soul had the most violent power.
There were also the Shui brothers, who had the Lightning Martial Soul and the Lightning Martial Soul respectively.
Sikong Mo had the Three Thousand Weak Water Martial Soul.
Yu Zige had the Rain Martial Soul and so on.
This batch of new disciples could be said to be full of geniuses.
…
It was precisely because of the large number of geniuses that the Blue Cloud Sect was looking forward to it.
These disciples naturally wanted to compete. The better the results, the more attention they would receive from the higher-ups of the Blue Cloud Sect.
…
Early in the morning, Elder Qiao Yunqiu woke up early. Elder Qiao Yunqiu simply tidied up. She took a deep breath and tried her best to maintain a calm heart.
Over the years, she had experienced too many scenes like today.
The first time a disciple was defeated and eliminated.
Disappointment after disappointment, heartache after heartache.
She heard countless mockery.
She felt countless gazes of contempt.
But Qiao Yunqiu knew that she still had to pretend to be optimistic. She didn't want the disciples of the Heaven Mending Peak to see their pillar collapse because of this.
Even if Qiao Yunqiu really felt tired these years.
There was so much pressure that she almost couldn't breathe.
But she knew that she had to persevere.
The Peak Master was injured, and his injuries were very serious. Most of the time, he was at the threshold of life and death. She didn't know if he could survive.
And the Heaven Mending Peak only had one elder, Qiao Yunqiu.
Qiao Yunqiu silently guarded the Heaven Mending Peak, so Qiao Yunqiu knew that she had to set an example.
She told herself that she was the pillar of support for the Heaven Mending Peak disciples.
She couldn't fall.
Even late at night, Qiao Yunqiu would lie weakly on the bed and ask herself why she persevered for so many years?
Why didn't she leave the Blue Cloud Sect? Leave the Heaven Mending Peak? With his cultivation, he could live a very dignified life.
But every time this happened, Qiao Yunqiu would remember a few decades ago when she was still a little girl and almost froze to death in the cold winter. It was the old Peak Master who pitied her and brought her to Heaven Mending Peak.
Qiao Yunqiu's talent was not good and she wanted to give up on cultivation. It was Si Butian who encouraged her when she was young.
For the sake of the old Peak Master, for the sake of Junior Brother Mending Tian … he also had to protect the Heaven Mending Peak.
…
When Qiao Yunqiu walked out of her room and arrived at the Heaven Mending Peak's main hall, Lin Feng and the others were already waiting for her.
"Elder."
Seeing Qiao Yunqiu's arrival, Lin Feng and the rest hurriedly saluted.
Qiao Yunqiu forced a smile and said, "Don't be so courteous. We'll be going to the central plaza to participate in the competition. Everyone just needs to do their best. The competition is meant to test your strength. Even if we lose, we'll learn from our experiences and work hard to cultivate. Next time, don't take the results to heart."
"Yes."
Lin Feng and the others replied.
Qiao Yunqiu nodded. "Let's go."
Lin Feng and the other eight disciples followed Qiao Yunqiu to the central plaza.
The central plaza was located in the middle of the mountain range. It was a huge plaza that could hold tens of thousands of people. When Lin Feng and the others arrived, the plaza was already packed with disciples, attendants, and even elders from the various peaks.
"The Heaven Mending Peak's people are here."
"Pfft, Heaven Mending Peak only has nine disciples this year? Last year, there were at least twenty. "
"The new disciples all ran away. I heard that there were only ten people left, but the competition is about to start. Another one ran away, so there are only nine left."
"Tsk tsk, even if there are nine people, they'll only be able to survive one round. Heaven Mending Peak only exists in name now."
"I heard that the Peak Lord of Heaven Mending Peak came out of seclusion and left. I wonder what he's doing?"
"He's been injured for so many years. Could it be that he feels his time is up? Is that why he's looking for a place to pass away? "
"Don't talk nonsense. We're just disciples. We shouldn't talk about the higher-ups of the sect."
"Haha, you're right. No matter how weak Si Butian is, he's still a Peak Lord of one of the twelve peaks."
Many people were talking about him.
Lin Feng could hear a lot of voices. Even though it was chaotic, he could also hear some mocking and disdainful voices.
What a tragedy.
In the past, when Heaven Mending Peak had been strong, so many people had tried to join it.
Now, Heaven Mending Peak had declined, but the other disciples were still looking down on them.
"Look, the Five Elements Peak is here."
"The Executioner Peak is here too."
…
The new disciples from the other peaks also arrived one after another under the leadership of their respective peaks, causing many exclamations of surprise.
Everybody was talking about the geniuses of the other peaks.
When all the disciples of the twelve peaks arrived, more than ten elders flew over and landed on the central arena. They were the higher-ups of the sect.
Great Elder Zhang Quan was in charge of the competition.
"The first place winner of the competition will receive a top-quality spirit stone, a top-quality spirit weapon, and an ancient incantation. At the same time, the winner will receive a million low-quality spirit stones and all kinds of medicinal pills, including healing pills, cultivation pills, and sixteen other types of medicinal pills. Each type of pill will be rewarded with two thousand pills."
Great Elder Zhang Quan first announced the rewards for the first place winner of the competition.
Many people sucked in a breath of cold air.
The spirit weapon, incantation, and rewards for the peak were the same as the previous years. There was nothing strange about it.
The key was that the first place winner this year was actually rewarded with a top-quality spirit stone.
This was too precious.
Because a spirit mine could only produce a few top-quality spirit stones. Sometimes, a spirit mine could not even produce a single top-quality spirit stone.
Ordinary people would not be able to see a top-quality spirit stone at all.
…
"Top-quality spirit stone." Lin Feng was also very surprised. He had many high-level spirit stones, but he had never seen a top-quality spirit stone.
The preciousness of a top-quality spirit stone was unimaginable.
If one used a top-quality spirit stone to cultivate, one's cultivation would immediately skyrocket.
This sect was really putting in a lot of effort.
Then, Great Elder Zhang Quan announced the rewards for the top ten. Of course, it was much worse than the first place. He also mentioned some rules of the competition. Then, the competition officially began.
"The first round of the competition, the first match, Supreme Peak's Fang Yan versus Heaven Mending Peak's Li Qixun." The Great Elder in charge said.
"Whoosh."
Fang Yan leaped out and landed on the arena.
Fang Yan was about twenty years old. He was slender and very handsome. His cultivation was at the Fourth Firmament of the Martial King realm.
When he heard Great Elder Zhang Quan announce his name, Li Qixun's face turned slightly pale. He gritted his teeth and also went up to the arena.
Li Qixun had the highest cultivation among the nine disciples of Heaven Mending Peak. Like Fang Yan, he was also at the Fourth Firmament of the Martial King realm. He was also the Heaven Mending Peak disciple that Qiao Yunqiu thought was most likely to advance to the second round.
At this moment, when she saw Li Qixun enter the arena, she hoped that Li Qixun could create a miracle and defeat Supreme Peak's Fang Yan. She hoped that he could advance to the second round and regain some face for Heaven Mending Peak. Elder Qiao Yunqiu clenched her fists tightly. It was obvious that she was very nervous at this moment.
