After returning to the Ji Mansion, Ji Tianxing made a trip to his father's residence.
His father was still recuperating in the secret chamber. Although his injuries were getting better, the recovery was very slow.
He didn't wake up his father who was recuperating. Instead, he gave a few instructions to the guards guarding the secret chamber and left.
After returning to Qingfeng Courtyard, he entered the secret chamber and prepared to continue cultivating.
There were still two days before the tournament. He wanted to use these last two days to increase his strength by a few percent.
The elixirs stored in the secret chamber, as well as the elixirs given to him by Little Princess Ke, were all consumed and refined by him.
For two whole days, he stayed in the secret chamber and cultivated bitterly. He only came out once.
This time, he only appeared for an hour.
During this time, he ate some food to replenish his strength. He also asked Mu Shan for some information and made some arrangements.
In these two days, the Ji Mansion was peaceful.
Second Elder Ji Rufeng was surprisingly calm. He didn't make any movements as if he didn't feel any danger.
The few managers who were under house arrest were also calm. They ate, drank, and slept leisurely as if nothing had happened.
Even Ji Hao stayed in his room and cultivated. He didn't show his face.
But in reality, they were all waiting … waiting for the Sky Pillar Sect's tournament to begin!
Because they all knew that the day the tournament began would be the day Ji Tianxing died!
The Imperial City of Green Cloud was the complete opposite of the Ji Mansion's tranquility. These two days, it was very lively and noisy.
On one hand, the Sky Pillar Sect's tournament was about to begin. The grand event that happened once every three years was about to begin. It attracted countless cultivators to come to the Imperial City to watch.
On the other hand, the news of Ji Tianxing recovering his strength and participating in the tournament caused a lot of discussion among the commoners in the Imperial City.
Countless people were waiting for the tournament to begin. They wanted to see Ji Tianxing's performance in the tournament with their own eyes.
Everyone wanted to see if the trash from back then had really recovered his strength.
Could he wash away the shame in the tournament, clear his name, and obtain the qualifications to enter the Sky Pillar Sect?
Everyone was looking forward to it.
Two days had passed.
On the morning of the third day, Ji Tianxing finally ended his cultivation and walked out of the secret chamber.
At this time, his appearance didn't change, but his strength had increased by forty percent!
His entire body faintly emitted a powerful aura, and his eyes revealed a strong sense of confidence and anticipation!
Under Huan 'er's service, he changed into a set of black clothes with silver line patterns. His entire person became heroic and exuberant.
He held the Black Dragon Sword wrapped in the black iron scabbard and calmly walked out of the Ji Mansion. He rode a carriage to the city square.
At this time, the sun had just risen, and the warm morning breeze was blowing, making people feel comfortable.
Countless commoners of the Imperial City flocked to the city square, wanting to catch a glimpse of the Sky Pillar Sect's disciples and the heroic bearing of the top ten geniuses of the Royal Azure Kingdom!
After passing through several crowded streets, the carriage stopped at the edge of the square.
The square with a radius of nearly three thousand meters was already packed with people. Most of them were commoners and Martial Warriors from the Imperial City.
Ji Tianxing raised his head and looked around. There were people everywhere. Roughly estimating that there were at least thirty to fifty thousand people gathered in the square!
Today, the number of people who came to the square to watch the grand competition was several times more than when he broke the array!
Ji Tianxing passed through the crowd and walked towards the high platform in the middle of the square.
Today's grand competition would be presided over by two deacons of the Sky Pillar Sect. Three Sky Pillar Sect disciples would also be present to supervise.
The grand competition's arena was the white jade high platform in the middle of the square.
When Ji Tianxing squeezed out of the crowd and arrived below the high platform, he saw that there were more than twenty young Martial Warriors standing around the high platform.
These twenty over people were all young Martial Warriors who had passed the test and would be participating in the grand competition today.
Most of them were famous geniuses in the Royal Azure Kingdom.
They each stood around the high platform, leaving an empty space of ten feet around them. No one dared to get close to them.
Ji Tianxing also stood on the stone steps below the high platform, waiting with a calm expression.
Some of the commoners and warriors who were watching immediately recognized him and started whispering to each other with strange expressions on their faces.
In the blink of an eye, the crowd around him also retreated, leaving an empty space.
Apart from the crowd's whispers, the twenty over young Martial Warriors also looked at Ji Tianxing with complicated gazes.
Some of them were sizing him up, some of them were vigilant and alert, and some of them were indifferent.
Among them, there was one gaze that was the most dazzling. It contained dense hostility and killing intent, making Ji Tianxing feel as if there was a thorn in his back.
He followed that gaze and saw Jiang Baiyu, who was dressed in a white robe, staring at him with a gloomy expression.
Haha, he was probably ridiculed by the entire city for the past two days, so he's bearing a grudge against me.
Ji Tianxing sneered in his heart and retracted his gaze. He couldn't be bothered with Jiang Baiyu.
After a while, more and more people gathered in the square. The young Martial Warriors participating in the grand competition were almost all here.
Little Princess Ke Ke was also one of the geniuses who had passed the test and was going to participate in the grand competition.
Under the protection of the palace guards, she passed through the crowd and arrived below the high platform.
She looked around and hurried over when she saw Ji Tianxing.
The little princess came to Ji Tianxing's side and whispered angrily, "Big Brother Tianxing, you despicable guy!"
After saying that, she pouted angrily and glared at Ji Tianxing with her big eyes, showing that she was very dissatisfied.
"Uh …" Ji Tianxing's expression was a little awkward. He smiled embarrassedly and asked, "Ke Ke, what's wrong? Are you unhappy? "
"Hmph! Of course I'm unhappy! " The little princess glared at him angrily again and muttered angrily, "Some big liar secretly recovered his strength, but he refused to tell this princess. He made this princess worry about him all day, racking my brains to think of a solution for him … Hmph, despicable!"
Ji Tianxing immediately revealed an apologetic smile. He looked at her sincerely and said, "Ke Ke, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hide this from you. I have my own difficulties."
"You should also know that a lot of unforeseen events have happened in the Ji Family during this time …"
Before he finished speaking, the anger on the little princess's face completely dissipated.
Her big clear eyes stared at Ji Tianxing. Seeing his guilty and sincere expression, she revealed a flower-like smile.
She nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, Big Brother Tianxing, you don't need to explain. I understand."
"I know you were forced to hide the news, but you still treat me as a friend, right?"
Ji Tianxing smiled and nodded, "Of course! Ke Ke, you're my best friend. "
"Hehe … I knew Big Brother Tianxing was the best to me." The little princess revealed a sweet smile, looking even more charming and cute.
She clenched her white and tender little fist and said to Ji Tianxing, "Big Brother Tianxing, today we have to kill our way into the top ten and win the qualifications to enter the Sky Bearing Sect!"
"When the time comes, the two of us will enter the Sky Bearing Sect at the same time. We can accompany each other day and night, cultivate martial arts together, and take care of each other …"
As she spoke, the little princess's big clear eyes revealed a look of strong expectation.
