Seeing everyone rolling their eyes at her, Chen Xiaohan immediately became unhappy. She pouted and said, "You guys really don't know how to appreciate my kindness. I was kind enough to fight for you guys, but you guys still rolled your eyes at me."
At this moment, another figure appeared at the door. This person was like a long spear, standing ramrod straight. The long spear on his back was made of fine steel, appearing even more incomparably sharp!
Lin Tian narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Mo Dechen? You've always been elusive. You actually have the time to come to our Sword Sect today? "
Most of the people present had seen Mo Dechen before. Chen Xiaohan was the only one who didn't know him. Hearing Lin Tian call out his name, she immediately said with interest, "So you're Mo Dechen. Hey, if Lu Xuan doesn't come back, how about I replace him to fight against you?"
However, Mo Dechen turned a deaf ear to Chen Xiaohan's words. His gaze swept across the crowd, and when he didn't find his target, he immediately frowned and said, "He's not back yet?"
Even though Mo Qiuchen did not name anyone, everyone naturally knew who the "him" he was referring to was.
Lin Xinyi shook her head slowly, "No, we're also waiting."
Mo Dechen nodded and immediately turned to leave. However, after taking two steps, he stopped and said, "If he comes back, tell him that I'll be waiting for him in tomorrow's competition."
Seeing Mo Dechen leave, Xia Ye then said, "Looks like there are many people paying attention to Lu Xuan. Even Mo Dechen came to ask for news."
"Mo Dechen made an appointment with Lu Xuan to fight in the Sect Competition. That's why he came to ask for news." Lin Xinyi said. She was at the side when Mo Dechen made the appointment.
"Let's wait. Who knows, Lu Xuan might come back soon. If we can't make it in time, even if we can't get first place, our Sword Sect won't be at the bottom again." Lin Tian vowed.
The top three sects in the previous competition were the Saber Sect, the Spear Sect, and the Fist Sect.
Now, the number one disciple of the Saber Sect, Xu Wenyang, was dead. Although there were still many powerful disciples in the Saber Sect, they could only barely maintain their position in the top ten. It was basically impossible for them to take the top spot.
As for the Fist Faction's number one, his name was Du Peng. His current strength was at the Initial Tier Eight of the Body Refinement Realm, slightly stronger than Lin Tian. However, Lin Tian had already comprehended sword intent, and his battle prowess had greatly increased. If they were to really fight, it was hard to say who would emerge victorious, but in short, Lin Tian's chances of winning were higher.
As for the first place in the Spear Sect, it was naturally Mo Dismal. If Lu Xuan didn't return this time, he would definitely be the first place candidate in the tournament.
However, the relationship between the Spear Sect and the Sword Sect was not bad. It would not be a bad thing if the Spear Sect obtained first place. At the very least, it would be better than falling into the hands of the Saber Sect or the Fist Sect.
So, so long as Lin Tian was able to defeat the Fist Sect's Du Peng and seize the second position, the situation in the Sword Sect would change greatly.
After waiting for a period of time, there was still no news of Lu Xuan. Everyone could only regretfully disperse. Tomorrow was the day of the tournament, and they also needed to prepare.
However, Chen Xiaohan did not return to the Enchantment Hall. Instead, she directly said to Lin Xinyi, "Sister Lin, I'll sleep with you tonight. Otherwise, I'll have to run over tomorrow. It's too troublesome."
"That's fine too." Lin Xinyi nodded. In terms of strength and status, Chen Xiaohan was higher than everyone here. However, she had never put on any airs and got along well with everyone. So, she was naturally welcomed by them.
The day passed in the midst of waiting.
Even when she returned to her room and sat quietly, Lin Xinyi's heart could not calm down. She constantly paid attention to the movement of the door. She hoped to hear the sound of knocking and then see Lu Xuan's signature sunny smile.
However, it was a pity that she did not get to see it.
Chen Xiaohan's state was similar to that of Lin Xinyi. Although she held a brush that was specially used to draw talisman scrolls, she supported her chin with one hand and continued to draw blindly on the precious blank talisman scrolls. She was in a daze.
It had already been more than five months. She did not know how Lu Xuan was doing. However, Chen Xiaohan was not worried about his danger. She knew that Lu Xuan had three five-star talisman scrolls, which would definitely be enough under normal circumstances.
Now that he had not returned, there was a high chance that he was delayed by something. However, she still felt a little uneasy about not being able to see him.
Of course, apart from worry, there was also a shy longing. She had originally thought that after not seeing Lu Xuan for so long, she would gradually forget about him. However, in reality, every time she practiced drawing talisman scrolls, Lu Xuan's appearance would uncontrollably appear in her mind.
The two of them were beautiful women, but they were thinking about the same man in the same room.
She waited from day to night, but Lu Xuan finally did not return.
It was a quiet night.
The next day, when the sky had just turned white, Lin Xinyi had already woken up from her dreams. She faintly felt that something was pressing down on her. She opened her eyes slightly and saw Chen Xiaohan's small hands unceremoniously placed on her proud twin peaks.
Her face immediately turned slightly red. This little girl, she was really dishonest when she slept.
Moving Chen Xiaohan's dishonest hands away, Lin Xinyi got out of bed, put on her clothes, and washed up. However, this movement finally woke Chen Xiaohan up.
She opened her big hazy eyes and asked in a daze, "Sister Lin, why are you up so early?"
Lin Xinyi turned her head to look at her and said, "We'll be gathering in a while to prepare for the Grand Competition. If you're still sleepy, you can sleep a little longer."
Although she really wanted to go back to sleep, Chen Xiaohan gritted her teeth and crawled out of bed. As she put on her clothes, she said, "Sister Lin, your figure is really good. No wonder Lu Xuan always praises you in front of me."
Although Lin Xinyi was secretly happy in her heart, there was still some embarrassment on her face when she heard this. She asked in a low voice, "He really said that?"
"Yes, he even said that my chest is small." Chen Xiaohan was a little indignant. However, she glanced at Lin Xinyi's chest and said with a trace of an evil smile, "But I tried it last night. Your chest is indeed bigger than mine."
"..." Lin Xinyi was instantly speechless.
The two girls quickly finished washing up, changed their clothes, and left.
At this moment, almost all the disciples in the Sword Sect were awake. Today was the big day of the year in the inner sect. Even the new year couldn't compare to today's scene.
After breakfast, they started to head to the square of the Sword Sect, which was also the place where Lu Xuan and Lin Tian had competed.
The process of the Grand Competition was divided into two parts. First, it was the internal competition of the various branch sects. Regardless of whether it was the new disciples or the veteran disciples, all of them had to participate. It was to test the results of their training over the past year, and also to let all the disciples have a more detailed understanding of their own strength and the strength of others.
However, all the disciples would participate together, and there was no distinction between the so-called new disciples and the veteran disciples. This was also to suppress the confidence of some of the more talented new disciples. No matter how talented you were, if you did not work hard in training, or if your training time was not as long as others, you would still be unable to win. Of course, this was useless against a monstrous talent like Lu Xuan.
Before the start of the Grand Competition, the various attendants would arrange for the disciples to draw lots. Every number would have two people with the same number, and the people who drew the same number would be the opponent of the Grand Competition.
If one lost, he would be eliminated, and the winner would be able to advance to compete for a higher ranking. According to the ranking of the Branch Sect Grand Competition, there would naturally be different rewards. However, the specific amount of rewards would depend on the foundation and resources of each branch sect.
In this manner, the top ten disciples of each branch sect would be decided.
Other than the rewards given by the branch sect, the top ten disciples would also be able to represent their branch sect in the Grand Competition of the entire inner sect!
Each of the nine branch sects would send their top ten disciples to participate in the competition. This was the real Grand Competition of the Sect!
At the same time, it was also the most watched by the elders and disciples of the various branch sects. It could be said that the previous Grand Competition was just a warm-up. Everyone was part of the same sect, and they were just playing around.
However, when it came to the Grand Competition of the Sect, you would not only represent yourself, but the entire branch sect. Your results were not only related to the glory of the branch sect, but also related to the amount of resources that the branch sect would be able to obtain in the next year. The resources that hundreds and thousands of disciples would be able to obtain were very important.
Therefore, the ten disciples who would participate in the Grand Competition were very important. They must be the strongest disciples in the branch sect.
Because of the elimination system of the sub-school competition, in order to prevent the strong from colliding with each other in the sub-school competition, the strongest disciples would be eliminated. Therefore, when the top ten were decided, the disciples who felt that they were strong enough could challenge any one of the top ten disciples. Once they won, they would be able to take the other's place.
Lin Xinyi and the others were considered to have arrived relatively early. When they arrived, there were not many people, but as time passed, the Sword Sect Square gradually became lively. Chen Xiaohan seemed to be a little excited.
She looked here and there. She had been to the Grand Competition of the Sect a few times in the past, but it was just a casual look and she felt that it was not interesting. But this time, she was standing in the crowd, and she also got to know Lin Xinyi and the others. Naturally, it was more interesting than before.
At this moment, a group of four people walked towards Lin Xinyi and the others. Seeing them, the disciples all bowed and made way for them.
Lin Xinyi and the others also bowed and said, "Greetings, three elders."
The people who had come were naturally the three great elders and Lin Tian.
Elder Cheng waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be so polite. He then asked, "What's wrong, is there still no news about Lu Xuan?"
Lin Xinyi and the others looked at each other and shook their heads.
Seeing this, a trace of regret flashed across the three elders' faces. It seemed that Lu Xuan would have to miss the Grand Competition this time. More importantly, without Lu Xuan, the Sword Sect's hope of obtaining first place would be slim.
Although Lin Tian was not weak, he did not have much of a chance to defeat Mo Qiuchen.
