Lu Mingyang's words made Han Qiaosheng reveal a gratified expression.
Even though Lu Mingyang, who was at the second level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage, was still no match for Hang Chen.
But if his strength increased by one level, it would at least increase his chances of winning.
The other disciples also looked at Lu Mingyang with envy as they discussed in low voices.
"Senior Brother Lu was at the first level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage when he entered the sect. It's only been two months, and he's already at the second level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage!"
"It's several times harder for a Mystic Enlightening Stage martial artist to advance by one level than a True Energy Stage martial artist. It's unbelievable that he can advance by one level in two months! "
"The genius Ji Tianxing has already given us a lot of pressure. I didn't expect Lu Mingyang to be so strong as well … We have to work hard!"
Lu Mingyang listened to everyone's discussion and felt even more proud.
He turned to look at Ji Tianxing with a smug look in his eyes.
He was looking forward to seeing Ji Tianxing's expression at this moment.
Was it jealousy? Envy? Or vigilance?
However, Ji Tianxing's expression was as calm as usual. There was no ripple in his eyes as though he was indifferent to this matter.
Lu Mingyang was a little disappointed. He frowned and withdrew his smug look.
Han Qiaosheng encouraged everyone with a few words before asking them to leave and gather here tomorrow morning.
Everyone left the main hall and returned to their respective residences.
After Ji Tianxing returned to his room, he continued to cultivate and try to refine his acupoints.
Although Lu Mingyang had successfully broken through to the second level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage, it was useless.
However, in his opinion, this was completely useless. Lu Mingyang was still no match for the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Lu Mingyang could not even defeat Ran Donglai, who was at the second level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage, let alone Hang Chen and Yin Feiyang, who were at the fifth level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage.
Ji Tianxing's eyes were like torches. He had long seen that Ran Donglai had been at the second level of the Mystic Enlightening Stage for a long time and was about to break through to the third level.
Lu Mingyang was definitely unreliable if he wanted to win the Dragon Mountain Tournament for the Sky Pillar Sect and reclaim Dragon Mountain and honor.
At that time, only he could complete such a heavy task!
…
The next morning, a new day and a new month had begun.
All the disciples were already prepared and hurried to the main hall.
Han Qiusheng and Du Wu had arrived long ago, waiting for everyone in the main hall.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Han Qiusheng announced in a loud voice, "Today, the triennial Dragon Mountain Grand Tournament will be held. The time for our sect's honor has come!"
"The Spirit Beast Hall has already prepared mounts for us. In a moment, I will lead everyone to Dragon Mountain."
"In addition, the two elders of our sect will also go to supervise the battle. I hope that the two participating disciples will fight for the honor of our sect!"
Han Qiaosheng only used three short sentences to stir up everyone's blood, causing their morale to soar.
Subsequently, Han Qiaosheng and Du Wu led the group out of the Wind Cloud Courtyard.
Outside the gate, the disciples of the Spirit Beast Hall had brought over twelve Chasing Wind Horses and were waiting quietly.
Those Wind Chasing Horses were all mid-tier demonic beasts that were raised in the wild. They were bigger than ordinary horses, faster, and had more stamina.
Han Qiaosheng and the others mounted the Chasing Wind Horses and followed the mountain path out of Heaven Upholding Peak, galloping towards the north.
Dragon Mountain was located three hundred miles north of the Sky Upholding Sect, at the border between the Sky Upholding Sect and the Tian Jian Sect.
Of course, Dragon Mountain was closer to the Sky Upholding Sect, being more than five hundred miles away from the Tian Jian Sect.
In the past, Dragon Mountain belonged to the Sky Upholding Sect. The Sky Upholding Sect had invested a lot of manpower to turn Dragon Mountain into a beautiful medicine garden. The scenery was very pleasant.
It was a pity that the two sects had conflicts and conflicts later on. They had no choice but to decide the ownership of Dragon Mountain in the form of an arena competition.
Ji Tianxing and the other disciples had been discussing Dragon Mountain recently, but they had never seen it with their own eyes.
On the way to Dragon Mountain, everyone was still imagining what Dragon Mountain, which had provoked the two sects to fight over it, would look like.
The Chasing Wind Horses were extremely fast. Facing the rising sun, they galloped between the mountains, as fast as an arrow leaving a bow.
In less than two hours, everyone had arrived at the foot of Dragon Mountain.
When everyone dismounted and stood on the grass, they immediately revealed complicated and strange expressions as they sized up Dragon Mountain from a close distance.
The towering and majestic mountain range in front of them was over three thousand meters high. It wasn't as green and lush as everyone had imagined.
There were only a few scattered towering trees, a few useless jungles, and a lot of messy weeds on the mountain.
Most of the places were covered with dark brown ground and rocks.
Only a few places still had some seedlings of medicinal herbs. However, they looked half dead and didn't have any sense of vitality.
At the foot of Dragon Mountain, there was a large river that meandered along the mountain.
The river water in the big river was extremely turbid and filled with yellow silt.
There were many places in the river that were blocked by huge mountain rocks. There were also a lot of dark brown ores and stone dregs scattered along the riverbank.
Everyone could see that this was obviously the Tian Jian Sect's excessive mining of the ore veins in Dragon Mountain.
Moreover, after the Tian Jian Sect mined the ore veins, in order to save manpower, they dumped the mountain rocks and dregs into the river at the foot of the mountain.
Han Qiaosheng and Du Wu's expressions immediately became unsightly. Their eyes were filled with anger.
"Damn the Tian Jian Sect! They're a bunch of bastards and robbers! "
"Back then, when our sect was managing Dragon Mountain, everything was in good order. We made Dragon Mountain a beautiful place with beautiful scenery."
"Yes, when we came to Dragon Mountain to supervise, there were towering trees everywhere. There were herb gardens full of flowers and plants. Even the air was fresh and sweet."
"The river at the foot of the mountain was as bright as a pearl belt. The river water was so clear that you could see the bottom. You could clearly see many fish swimming in it …"
"In just three years, the Tian Jian Sect destroyed Dragon Mountain to such a miserable state! You can imagine how crazily they plundered Dragon Mountain's resources in these three years! "
When the disciples heard Han Qiaosheng and Du Wu's discussion and saw the miserable state of Dragon Mountain today, their faces were gloomy and their hearts were filled with anger.
Lu Mingyang frowned and asked tentatively, "Deacon Han, Dragon Mountain was destroyed by the Tian Jian Sect. The resources must have been plundered. Does our sect still need to fight?"
Hearing his words, Han Qiaosheng and Du Wu both frowned.
After a moment of silence, Han Qiaosheng said in a deep voice, "Even if Dragon Mountain was destroyed to such a miserable state, you still have to do your best in today's competition."
"After all, this Dragon Mountain Competition is not only to decide the ownership of Dragon Mountain, but also an opportunity for our sect to wash away the shame and regain our honor!"
Lu Mingyang nodded silently. He didn't say anything, but he was obviously disappointed in his heart.
Everyone stopped at the foot of the mountain for a while. Then, under Han Qiaosheng's lead, they rushed to the top of the mountain.
Every Dragon Mountain Competition was held on the Dragon Viewing Platform at the top of the mountain.
