Lu Xuan sheathed his sword and stood upright. He could not be bothered to look at Wei Suo, who was like a dead dog.
Elder Gong suddenly descended from the sky and quickly helped Wei Suo up. He checked Wei Suo's body with his Primordial Energy and checked Wei Suo's condition. After a while, he heaved a sigh of relief. Apart from some superficial wounds, Wei Suo did not suffer any serious injuries.
However, compared to his injuries, Lu Xuan's actions undoubtedly caused more psychological damage to Wei Suo.
Lu Xuan had slapped him in the face in front of so many people. His entire face was swollen. With Wei Suo's temperament, how could he bear it? At that moment, Wei Suo had already fainted. With his strength in the Spirit Refinement State, such injuries would definitely not cause him to faint. It was obvious that it was caused by anger.
Elder Jin also landed in front of Lu Xuan. He looked at Elder Gong cautiously, in case Elder Gong attacked Lu Xuan out of anger.
However, at that moment, Elder Gong no longer had such thoughts. With Wei Suo's defeat, the Sky Saber Sect's objective had been completely defeated. The one who ended everything was an inner sect disciple of the Wind Sword School!
No one had expected such an outcome. Even Elder Jin was only looking forward to Lu Xuan's return to defeat the top inner sect disciple of the Sky Saber Sect. Who would have thought that Lu Xuan would be able to sweep through all the disciples and even the core disciples of the Sky Saber Sect could not stop him?
If Elder Gong had known that such a situation would occur, he would have gone to the core disciples of the Wind Sword School right from the start and not come to the inner sect to show off his might.
Although Wei Suo was only in the Greater Success Stage of the First Tier of the Spirit Refinement State, with his solid foundation and the Profound Level Martial Technique that he had comprehended, he could fight against ordinary cultivators in the Third or even the Fourth Tier of the Spirit Refinement State. It was not difficult for him to defeat all the core disciples of the Wind Sword School.
Elder Gong waved his hand and summoned a few disciples of the Sky Saber Sect to carry Wei Suo away.
Luo Ning was also among this group of disciples. Looking at Wei Suo's swollen face that resembled a pig's head, it was truly too horrible to look at. Putting aside the fact that they were enemies, Luo Ning's admiration for Lu Xuan could be said to be at its peak. To be able to achieve such a feat with the strength of the tenth tier of the Body Refinement Realm was truly astonishing.
However, one could not blame Lu Xuan, but Wei Suo was too arrogant. If it was not because he forced Lu Xuan to fight and provoked the Wind Sword Sect, he would not end like this. Luo Ning was glad that he admitted defeat in time. Otherwise, he would the Saber Sect's Family Sect.
Among the disciples of the Sky Saber Sect who fought against Lu Xuan, only Luo Ning lost in a slightly better way. Zhang Qing was defeated by Lu Xuan without even using his sword. Yu Hao and Zhou Tong worked together and were defeated by Lu Xuan. Zhu Ling was heavily injured and as for Wei Suo, it was needless to say. Although he was the strongest, he lost the most miserably.
"Wait a minute!" Instructor Yang flew onto the stage and shouted, "Wei Suo just made a bet. Since the outcome has been decided, it is time to take out the wager. Also, if I remember correctly, Zhu Ling from your Sky Saber Sect still owes Lu Xuan a Bejeweled Weapon. Now, return it together."
Elder Gong's face alternated between red and white. What Instructor Yang said was the truth, and he had no way to refute it. Fortunately, Wei Suo and Zhu Ling had already fainted. Otherwise, the two of them would probably be in a worse state.
"Hmph, don't worry. Our Sky Saber Sect can still afford it. We won't go back on our words." Elder Gong snorted coldly and took out a series of items from his Storage Ring. There were two jade bottles and a weapon.
Instructor Yang took them and opened the two jade bottles. He sniffed them and looked at the weapon. Then, he nodded with satisfaction. There were ten Acupoint Nourishing Pills and a Spirit Concentration Pill in the two jade bottles.
"Lu Xuan, take care of your loot." Instructor Yang turned around and threw the items to Lu Xuan. Then, he said to Elder Gong, "I know why you came to challenge us. However, you can give up now. Tsk, tsk. The core disciples of the Sky Saber Sect came out in full strength, but they were all defeated by an inner disciple of our Wind Sword School. How interesting. Hahaha!"
How could Elder Gong not hear the complacency and mockery in Instructor Yang's tone? However, the truth was in front of him. He could only swallow it. He came in high spirits, but he returned in defeat. He even caused Wei Suo to be humiliated. When he returned this time, he would definitely be severely punished by the Sect Leader of the Sky Saber Sect.
"Don't be complacent. We will have more chances to meet in the future!" Elder Gong gritted his teeth and said.
"You're welcome. However, you can get lost now." Instructor Yang was not afraid at all. The Wind Sword School had produced Lu Xuan. As long as he was nurtured well, it would not be a problem for his strength to rise to the next level. Even the Wind Sword School would benefit a lot. If the Sky Saber Sect wanted to challenge them again, they would have to think twice.
Elder Gong swept his gaze across the crowd, focusing his attention on Lu Xuan. With a flick of his sleeve, he left the arena.
Luo Ning hesitated for a while and cupped his fists at Lu Xuan. Then, he carried Wei Suo and left with Elder Gong.
Seeing Luo Ning cupping his fists at him, Lu Xuan was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled. There were some interesting people in the Sky Saber Sect. If there was a chance, he might be able to make friends with Luo Ning.
Under Elder Gong's control, the Heavenly Saber Gate's flying device immediately rose from the ground and soared into the sky, bringing the Heavenly Saber Gate disciples away. When the Wind Sword Sect disciples thought about how arrogant they had been when they first arrived and how miserable they were now, they all revealed joyful smiles.
This year's Sect Competition was probably the most exciting in the history of the Wind Sword School. However, the most exciting part was not the first half of the Sect Competition, but the second half of the fight between Lu Xuan and the people of the Sky Saber Sect, which was full of ups and downs.
In comparison, everyone felt that the previous Sect Competition of the nine sub-sects was overshadowed.
Seeing the people of the Sky Saber Sect leave, Elder Jin slowly turned around and looked at the disciples of the inner sect. He waved his hand to signal the crowd to quiet down. Then, he shouted, "In this year's Sect Competition, the first place goes to Lu Xuan. Do you have any objections?"
"No objections!"
Thousands of people replied in unison. No one objected. What a joke. Although Lu Xuan did not fight with Mo Qiuchen, he even defeated the first core disciple of the Sky Saber Sect. Not to mention the first place in the inner sect, it was very possible for him to become the first place in the core disciple.
"Alright." Elder Jin nodded his head in satisfaction. He was in a good mood, "Now, I announce that this year's Sect Competition is a complete success. All the disciples will receive double the rewards. The rewards will be distributed within three days. Now, everyone can return to the sub-sects!"
Elder Jin generously doubled the rewards. The disciples who obtained the rankings were instantly elated. The rewards of the Sect Competition were already very high. Now that it was doubled, it was extremely huge for them.
The elders of the sub-sects all brought their disciples back to the sub-sects. However, Lu Xuan, Mo Qiuchen, and Lin Tian were asked to stay by Instructor Yang.
"The three of you have great potential. You can be selected as the core disciples of the Wind Sword School. Are you willing?" Instructor Yang said solemnly.
"We are willing!" The three of them answered in unison. Becoming a core disciple was the goal of every inner sect disciple. There was no reason for them to be unwilling.
Looking at the three people in front of him, Elder Jin could not help but sigh in his heart. These three were the most outstanding disciples of the inner sect. He indeed did not want them to leave. However, the existence of the inner sect was to select the most outstanding disciples to enter the core disciples. This was something that was inevitable.
"That's good. I will give you one day to settle your matters. After one day, follow me to the core disciple area. At that time, I will explain some things that you need to take note of." Instructor Yang nodded his head in satisfaction.
Hearing this, Lu Xuan could not help but frown. Only one day? He had just returned and did not have time to catch up with the others. He really did not want to leave so soon.
He immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Instructor Yang, please forgive me. I have just returned and there are still many things that I need to settle. I wonder if I can delay it for a few days?"
"If that's the case …" Instructor Yang thought for a while before saying, "Your situation is special. Since that is the case, I will give you a few more days. I will give you seven days."
If it was a normal person, Instructor Yang would definitely reject the request on the spot. However, Lu Xuan was different. He single-handedly defeated the Sky Knife Sect's scheme. He was able to defeat Wei Suo who was in the Spirit Refinement Realm when he just entered the tenth rank of the Body Refinement Realm. Whether it was his contributions or his own talent, it was enough for Instructor Yang to look at him differently.
"Thank you for your understanding, Instructor Yang!" A hint of joy flashed across Lu Xuan's face. Although seven days was not long, it was enough.
Seeing that Instructor Yang was treating Lu Xuan so well, a hint of envy flashed across Lin Tian's eyes. He was the grandson of Elder Lin of the Sword Sect, so he naturally knew about Instructor Yang. It was said that Instructor Yang was extremely strict with his disciples and never pretended to be polite. It was obvious that he was quite satisfied with Lu Xuan, which was why he was so nice to him.
However, he did not feel the slightest bit of jealousy. Putting aside the fact that he was able to achieve what he had today, it was all thanks to Lu Xuan's help. Just based on Lu Xuan's current strength, he had nothing to say.
"Go. In these seven days, I will be staying in the Inner Sect. If there is anything, just look for me," Instructor Yang said with a smile.
The three of them responded and left together. Lu Xuan and Lin Tian naturally returned to the Sword Sect, while Mo Qiuchen followed the two of them back to the Sword Sect.
In front of the Sword Forest, the other eight sub-sects of the Nine Major Sub-Sects had left one after another. However, the people of the Sword Sect were still there, obviously waiting for Lu Xuan.
When they saw that Lu Xuan had returned, the group of disciples immediately cried out in joy.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother Lu, for winning first place in the competition!"
