"I didn't expect that in just a few years, Brother Liu has such a thrilling experience … By the way, I think Brother Liu will also participate in this major competition of the 8 branches right?" Yan Ming suddenly changed the topic and mentioned the major competition.
"The outer door major competition is a grand event of our 8 branches. Of course, I must participate. Speaking of this matter, I have been cultivating behind closed doors for a long time, and I rarely pay attention to the matters of the 8 branches recently. I don't know who are the powerful characters in the 8 branches now, and who else should I pay special attention to. "Liu Ming immediately asked when he heard the words.
"Brother Liu, you are asking the right person. In this Piaohong Courtyard, in terms of strength, Senior Fellow Apprentice Zhou is the most outstanding now, in addition …"
After about ten minutes, Yan Ming told Liu Ming one by one about the powerful characters he knew in the 8 courtyards.
During the period, Xue Yun also added a few outer disciples who needed to be particularly wary of.
When Liu Ming heard the words, he couldn't help but nod again and again. He interjected a few words from time to time. At the same time, he firmly remembered everything he heard.
"Thank you for this time. In this case, I won't be confused in the major competition." After listening, Liu Ming thanked him again.
"Brother Liu, you don't have to be polite. We are very optimistic about Brother Liu's performance in this major competition. As long as you can enter the top 10, you are very likely to be favored by the Jin Dan State seniors in the sect and join the inner door. By the way, Junior Sister Apprentice Xue and I have to go to the market to prepare for the major competition, so we won't bother Brother Liu. See you at the venue 3 days later. "After Yan Ming and Liu Ming exchanged a few polite words, they got up and left with Xue Yun.
After Liu Ming bid farewell to the two, he returned to the secret room and quietly closed his eyes to rest.
A few days later.
When Liu Ming was meditating in the secret room, the disk array on his waist suddenly trembled slightly again, and a faint voice transmission came.
"The competition is about to begin. Disciples, please gather at Yunyi Peak as soon as possible."
Liu Ming immediately opened his eyes, stood up, carefully checked the items in the Sumeru Ring, and opened the map of Thousands Spirit Mountain Range. After glancing at it, he left the cave house and flew toward Tian Yi Peak.
At the same time, in the sky above several nearby mountains, various escape lights appeared one after another. They were all heading in the direction of Yunyi Peak.
After about 15 minutes, Liu Ming in a green robe appeared on the top of Yunyi Peak. It was a flat land with a radius of nearly a thousand acres.
This peak could be ranked in the top 10 in the entire Thousands Spirit Mountain Range. It was 70,000 to 80,000 meters high, and the sky around the peak was shrouded in clouds and mist. It looked like a fairyland.
By the time Liu Ming arrived, there were already three to four thousand people gathered on the platform at the summit, and more were flying over.
Most of these people were in their twenties, but there were also some older ordinary disciples. Occasionally, he could even see people wearing inner disciple costumes.
In the center of the open flat land, 10 green stone arenas that were half a meter high and hundreds of meters long and wide could be seen.
Behind the 10 arenas, there was another white jade platform with the size of an acre. There were some figures standing on it.
Two of them were dressed in a gray robe with a long beard. He was the dean, Jiang Zhong. Beside him, the one with the iconic inverted eyebrows was the deputy dean, Liang Zhange.
The other one was an old man with yellow eyebrows with a haggard face and a beautiful woman in a colorful dress with a good figure. Liu Ming had seen them before he entered the Small Flame World that day. They were all the dean of other courtyards.
As for the rest of the people, most of their auras were unfathomable. Obviously, they were also Jin Dan Realm powerhouses.
After Liu Ming took a deep breath, he chose a corner and stood there quietly.
Soon after, as more and more outer disciples came, the number of Jin Dan Realm existences on the white jade platform also gradually increased.
Some people directly drove the colorful clouds to land, and some came by flying boats and giant birds.
Suddenly, a green rainbow came from the distant sky. After a few flashes, it landed on the white jade platform. After the brilliance faded, several Jin Dan Realm existences appeared.
Among them was a boy of 12 or 13 years old and a middle-aged man in a white robe with a green folding fan in his hand. They were Emerald Cloud Peak's master surnamed Lu and Haoyue Boy. Next to them was a beautiful middle-aged woman in a green shirt who looked like she was in her thirties.
After a brief conversation with some of the people they were familiar with, they appeared at a corner of the tall platform and also began to wait.
After an hour, the entire top of the mountain was densely packed with people. On the white jade platform, there were more than 50 or 60 Jin Dan Realm existences outside the eight main courtyards.
Of course, these people could not represent all the peaks of the Taiqing Gate. Only some of the branches that were interested in the competition would send people to watch.
At this time, among the eight courtyard masters, the beautiful woman with a good figure looked up at the sky and finally said with some impatience,
"It's almost time."
"Well, it's really late. Let's start." Seeing this, the short and fat man next to her said calmly.
Jiang Zhong and the other courtyard masters naturally had no objection and nodded one after another.
So the short and fat man took two steps forward, coughed lightly, and announced in a loud voice,
"The decennial competition of the eight courtyards is about to be held here today. Now, on behalf of the courtyard masters of the eight courtyards, I will announce the rules of the competition. "
Although the short and fat man's voice was not loud, it resounded through the entire mountain, so that every disciple could hear it clearly.
Suddenly, all the disciples quieted down and looked in the direction of the high platform.
After looking around again, the short and fat man continued to announce,
"The rules of this competition are roughly the same as in the past. All the outer disciples within the eight courtyards can participate. The preliminary round is an elimination system. All the participating disciples will first draw lots to determine their opponents, and then fight in pairs. The winner will enter the next round, and the top 100 will be decided in this way.
The semi-finals will still adopt the elimination system, and the top 10 will be decided by drawing lots again. Finally, the top 10 will fight in turn. The specific rules of the round will be explained in detail after the top 10 are decided.
In addition, those who enter the top 100 of the competition can get a certain amount of spirit stones and contribution points as rewards. Those who enter the top 10 will get more spirit stones and contribution points of the Sect, as well as other rewards prepared by the Sect. Therefore, I hope that everyone can do their best. In addition, during the competition, all disciples are responsible for their own life and death. However, all disciples who deliberately hurt their opponents in the competition will be punished severely. They will be sent to the Five Mountains Bipolar Prison, and the more serious ones will be directly crippled of their spiritual power and expelled from the Taiqing Gate.
As for the specific challenge rules of the competition, they are all explained on the stone wall on the other side of the arena. After half an hour, lots will be drawn. After half a day, the 10 arenas will start the competition at the same time. "
After the short and fat man said a lot in one breath, he took a few steps back and chatted with the other courtyard masters.
The disciples on the mountain peak were immediately in a commotion. Although most of them knew the rules of the competition like the back of their hand, some people couldn't help but rush to the huge stone wall on the side and check it again.
…
"Courtyard Master Jiang, I heard that your Piaohong Courtyard can be said to be full of talents recently! I heard that in addition to the top 10 disciple Zhou Tianrui in the last major competition, there is another disciple surnamed Liu in your courtyard. He actually passed the trial of the Green Sky Illusory Palace. "On the jade platform, the old man with yellow eyebrows said to Jiang Zhong meaningfully.
"Not at all, Courtyard Master Chen is overpraising. I heard that there is a new disciple surnamed Lin in your Fengling Courtyard. He is also a talented person, and he is also proficient in various ghost techniques. In addition, your nephew Chen Deng has long been famous. His attainments in array are even more unmatched. With the two of them, I think the Fengling Courtyard will be able to shine in this major competition." Jiang Zhong smiled when he heard the words, and he said unhurriedly.
When the others heard the words, most of them just smiled and said nothing.
The beautiful woman pursed her lips with a smile on her face.
The eight courtyard masters naturally attached great importance to this major competition. The top 10 disciples in the major competition would not only get a lot of resources, but their branches would also be rewarded by the Sect. They would get a lot of resources, which was crucial for the development of each branch in the next ten years.
If a disciple was lucky enough to win the championship, then there was no need to worry about the resources in the next ten years.
Another point was that the result of each major competition would directly determine their reputation in the Sect and their own vital interests, so they naturally attached great importance to the result of the major competition.
Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.
During this period, Liu Ming also carefully read the preliminary competition from the stone wall again.
The preliminary competition was divided into 10 areas. Through a two-on-one duel, the last 10 people left would be the top 10 of the area, so the top 100 would be produced.
After the top 100, they would draw lots again. It was still a two-on-one duel, so the top 10 would be decided.
Later, Liu Ming hurriedly glanced at the pile of people, then he walked to the other side of the mountain, in front of a stone tablet with a height of more than 100 meters, to draw lots.
At this time, the names of many disciples had already appeared densely on the stone tablet.
After he shook the Sect token at his waist toward the stone tablet, a green light flashed into the stone tablet.
In the lower right corner of the gray light curtain on the surface of the stone tablet, the words of Piaohong Courtyard Liu Ming appeared in the position of the 9th area.
"9th area."
Liu Ming muttered to himself.
At this moment, Yan Ming and Xue Yun walked out of the crowd and happened to see the scene of Liu Ming drawing lots.
"Hey, Younger Brother Liu is in the 9th area." Yan Ming looked at the stone tablet and said.
"It turns out to be Junior Fellow Apprentice Yan, Junior Sister Apprentice Xue, have you two drawn lots?" Liu Ming nodded and asked casually.
"We are here to draw lots, and we just met Younger Brother Liu." Xue Yun, who was dressed in a white shirt, said with a slight smile.
As they said, the two took out the Sect token and shook it toward the stone tablet.
The same two green lights flashed out and went into the stone tablet.
Then the names of the two lit up almost at the same time. Yan Ming was assigned to the 5th area, and Xue Yun was assigned to the 1st area.
"It turned out to be the 5th area." Yan Ming looked at his division on the stone tablet with a solemn expression.
Liu Ming glanced at the stone tablet. In the 5th area, there were two names of the powerhouses mentioned by Yan Ming previously.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Yan, the Sect's major competition is just a practice. If you encounter a strong enemy, just treat it as a rare actual combat experience." Xue Yun on the side seemed to see Yan Ming's mind and comforted him.
Yan Ming smiled bitterly and could only nod.
Liu Ming once again carefully scanned the names of the 9th area on the stone tablet. After a glimmer of light flashed, he suddenly found that Zang Xuan's name was also among them.
In addition to this person, there were two other famous disciples mentioned by Yan Ming. The others seemed to be unknown.
However, each area had 10 seats to enter the top 100, so he might not necessarily encounter these people before entering the top 100.
