There were a few dark wooden chairs placed next to the main seat in the hall. The middle seat was empty, and two middle-aged men in gray robes were sitting on both sides. One of them had gray hair, but Liu Ming couldn't see the person's appearance clearly. The other person was surrounded by black gas, and he was playing with a gray jade in his hand.
Both of them were unfathomable. Liu Ming guessed that they should also be the elders of the Fallen Serene Peak, but Elder Yan whom Liu Ming met when he joined the sect a few years ago was not among them.
After about 10 minutes, a soft cough came from the back of the hall. When the disciples heard it, they stopped talking and looked in the direction of the sound.
The next moment, a man in a black robe walked in slowly from the back of the hall.
The man's face was half dry, but the other half was as ruddy as a baby. The gloomy and cold aura exuded from his body was looming.
Although Liu Ming stood at the back, he could still feel a sense of oppression that even made breathing a little difficult.
"Greetings to master." Xiaowu, who was the leader, immediately took a step forward and nodded.
Following that, all the other disciples bowed respectfully to him.
"It turns out that this is the rumored master of the Fallen Serene Peak, Yin Jiuling." After Liu Ming muttered to himself, he also reacted quickly and saluted after everyone.
The 2 elders also stood up from their seats at this moment and cupped their fists.
"Okay, you don't have to be so polite. I have been away from the Fallen Serene Peak for more than 10 years. I heard that the Fallen Serene Peak is full of talents now. There are 6 new disciples in 10 years, and there are several people who have successfully advanced to the Crystallization Period. This is really gratifying. During my absence, thanks to the elders for presiding over the affairs of the peak. Thank you. "As Yin Jiuling said, he cupped his fist to the men in gray clothes on both sides.
"Master Yin is too polite." The 2 elders immediately cupped their fist and replied respectfully.
After Yin Jiuling gestured for the two of them to sit down, he strode to the main seat in the middle and sat down with a wave of his sleeve.
"I've gathered all the disciples here today for two reasons. Firstly, I want to meet everyone. Secondly, it's for an opportunity." Yin Jiuling said calmly.
Hearing this, all the disciples' expressions changed. The two elders, on the other hand, were unperturbed. There was not a single ripple on their faces.
"When I was traveling this time, I actually found a nine-color spirit deer cub in a secret place somewhere in the Five Color Cloud Mountain." Yin Jiuling's gaze slowly swept across the faces of the disciples present, then he continued.
Liu Ming was shocked when he heard the words.
When he went to the Scripture Pavilion to read the classics, this nine-color spirit deer blood essence was one of the spiritual medicines that could increase the success rate of breaking through to the Crystallization Period.
Just when the disciples wanted to congratulate him, Yin Jiuling suddenly changed the topic,
"But when I found the nine-color spirit deer cub, an old guy from the Haoran Academy also happened to be here, so after a conflict between the 2 sides, they finally decided to decide the ownership of this spirit beast through a competition between the disciples."
As soon as this remark came out, a group of disciples in the hall was naturally in a commotion. The 2 elders of the Jin Dan State sitting on the side also looked at each other, but they did not speak.
"So this time, I'm going to bring 2 disciples with me. One of them is a Condensation State disciple, and the other is a Crystallization Period disciple. If the disciples who go with me win this competition and get the nine-color spirit deer cub, I will naturally not hesitate to reward them. I can even agree to a reasonable request from these 2 disciples." Yin Jiuling paused for a while, then he said again with a serious face.
Liu Ming was very tempted when he heard it.
If he could participate in the competition and win, it should not be too difficult to ask this master for some nine-color spirit deer blood essence as a reward.
"The 2 disciples I chose are the Crystallization Period disciple Xiaowu and the Condensation State disciple Mu Duanlong. If others think they are more suitable than these 2, they can directly challenge them. I will only bring the winner of the challenge to participate in this competition." Yin Jiuling glanced at the disciples present again and said with a slight smile.
"Who wants to spar with your Senior Sister? Don't stand on ceremony, feel free to come up and try." Xiaowu, the beautiful "Fifth Sister", immediately turned around and said to everyone with a smile, then a powerful aura suddenly rolled out from her body.
Several Condensation State disciples in the back row suddenly felt that the light in front of them dimmed as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them out of thin air. They all stepped back a few steps before regaining their balance.
Even the dozen Crystallization Period disciples in the front row could only remain unscathed after their bodies shook for a while in the face of this aura. They all smiled bitterly, and no one dared to look directly at this senior sister apprentice.
Liu Ming subconsciously raised the Fa Li in his body, but he didn't move at all. However, he also showed a surprised expression. This senior sister apprentice can actually release such a terrifying aura. I'm afraid her true strength is not inferior to the Jin Dan State cultivator.
Yin Jiuling was not surprised by this, but after his eyes flashed slightly, he glanced at Liu Ming intentionally or unintentionally.
The two Jin Dan State elders next to him naturally noticed the abnormality of Liu Ming, the Condensation State disciple, and they also looked at him with interest.
"Junior Fellow Apprentice Tian, this disciple is Liu Ming right? He is really extraordinary. He deserves to be the disciple who won the first place in the outer door major competition. If he is trained well, even if he really can't advance to the Crystallization Period, his strength will not be worse than other Crystallization Period disciples. Is junior fellow apprentice interested in accepting him? "The gray-haired man suddenly said with a voice transmission.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Yu, you know that Little Girl Jing has already given me a headache. How can I have the energy to teach other disciples? As for senior fellow apprentice, your disciples have already graduated, and you always value character more than aptitude. You might as well accept this disciple. "The other Jin Dan State elder who was playing with the jade in his hand rolled his eyes and said.
"If I met this disciple two or three hundred years ago, even if he only has a Three Spiritual Pulse body, I will not hesitate to accept him. But now, my life is coming to an end. I can only spend all my time on breaking through the bottleneck of the later stage. How can I have the energy to teach other disciples." Elder Yu heard the words, but he smiled bitterly and sent a voice transmission.
"En, in this case, the others will also look down on this disciple's Three Spiritual Pulse body, and I'm afraid they will not accept him as their disciple. I just don't know if our Senior Fellow Apprentice Yin will take a fancy to this disciple. After all, he is the peak master, but he only has one disciple, Xiaowu. At the beginning, Xiaowu's aptitude was also ordinary. Both you and I were shocked when Senior Martial Brother Yin accepted this little girl, "Elder Tian suddenly asked with a hint of interest in his voice.
"This should be unlikely. No matter how ordinary Xiaowu's aptitude was, she still has a Six Spiritual Pulse body. However, if Liu Ming can really advance to the Crystallization Period in the future, then the situation will naturally be very different. "Elder Yu hesitated for a while before replying with a voice transmission.
Just as the two Jin Dan State elders of Fallen Serene Peak were quietly talking, no one went to challenge the "Fifth Sister", Xiaowu. Among the Condensation State disciples, a short young man with a square face also leaped lightly to the front of everyone. After cupping his fist at the disciples, he said in a deep voice,
"I'm Mu Duanlong. If any Condensation State fellow apprentice wants to fight for the spot, as long as you can beat me by one move, I'm willing to quit."
As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of whispers among the more than a dozen Condensation State disciples in the back row. In many people's eyes, there was also a look of eagerness.
Although Mu Duanlong was known as a genius among the disciples of Fallen Serene Peak, and he had always been valued by several Jin Dan State elders, since it was related to the promise of Yin Jiuling, most people would naturally not give up easily.
However, before waiting for others to step forward, an enchanting woman in black clothes took a few steps forward.
"I'm willing to learn from Senior Fellow Apprentice Mu, please enlighten me." After the woman in black clothes chuckled softly, her beautiful eyes immediately showed a hint of fighting intent. She cupped her fist.
Mu Duanlong looked at the woman in black clothes, and he nodded without any surprise.
"Very well, you all come with me." Seeing this, Yin Jiuling nodded. After a faint sentence, he immediately stood up from the wooden chair and walked straight out of the hall.
When the others saw this, they naturally followed suit.
After a while, everyone came to the back of Fallen Serene Peak. In a valley, there was a very huge arena.
As soon as Mu Duanlong and the woman in black clothes moved, they immediately boarded the arena, and the rest of the disciples formed a circle outside in twos and threes.
"This competition is just to decide who will go with me to participate in the competition with Haoran Academy, so both sides should stop before going too far. If there is anything wrong, I will also take action personally." Yin Jiuling said in a deep voice in the air, then he waved his hand to open the arena's enchantment. A layer of white light curtain appeared out of thin air.
Mu Duanlong and the woman in black clothes naturally nodded.
After saying "start", the woman in black clothes immediately took out a small black flag. With a wave, two black gas rolled out. After a spin, it turned into two gray ghosts. They seemed to be two sorrowful women, exuding a faint yin qi.
After Mu Duanlong groaned, he spat out a small demonic flag. He held it in his hand, chanted, and launched a symbol at it. With a "poof" sound, a 10 meters tall ghost bone with a bull head and a human body crawled out from the demonic flag. Its body was surrounded by rolling gray gas.
Mu Duanlong's figure turned blurred, and he went into the bull head ghost bone.
Then the ghost bone raised its head and roared, rolling up the soaring yin qi and charging at the opposite side.
After a burst of explosions and ghostly wails, the two ghosts summoned by the woman in black spouted cold yin qi, and their figures were erratic. But after just two rounds, they were torn apart by Mu Duanlong's ox head ghost bone with its sky-covering claw shadows. They could only admit defeat.
As soon as the woman stepped off the stage, another sturdy young man stepped forward to challenge Mu Duanlong.
As soon as the sturdy young man came on the stage, he waved a giant fan full of yin qi, and he summoned 4 bone demons of 10 meters in size to fight fiercely with the bull head ghost bone possessed by Mu Duanlong.
