"Since the two seniors have given you rewards, as your master, I will definitely not disappoint you. I have a Practitioner Weapon that I used in the past, I will give it to you to protect your life. " Seeing this, Martial Aunt Zhong revealed a satisfied expression. After thinking for a while, she also took out a light yellow item from her sleeve and handed it over to Liu Ming with a smile.
"Thank you master. Eh, this is …" Liu Ming received the item and after carefully examining it, he couldn't help but be somewhat stunned.
This so called Practitioner Weapon was actually a simple inner armor made from yellow bamboo slips. The entire body was made from some unknown silver thread.
On the surface of each bamboo slip, there were densely packed five colored Spirit Inscriptions. However, the colors were extremely dim and blurry. If one didn't look closely, they wouldn't be able to be discovered.
"Junior, why did you take out this Practitioner Armor? This item has saved your life many times in the past. "When Zhu Chi saw the inner armor clearly, his expression couldn't help but slightly change.
Gui Ru Quan was also slightly stunned.
"This item can only defend against the attacks of a Spirit Apostle and was only useful in the past. To the current me, it is of little value. Furthermore, this item has been heavily damaged before. Even though it has been repaired, it can only defend against two or three attacks before being completely destroyed. Furthermore, I don't normally wear it. Why not give it to Cong Tian to protect himself. "Martial Aunt Zhong said without much concern.
When Zhu Chi and Martial Aunt Zhong heard this, they felt that it was somewhat reasonable and didn't say anything more.
Only now did Liu Ming understand the use of the armor. Naturally, he was overjoyed and once again thanked her before putting it away.
"Martial Nephew Bai, the three Scarlet Flame Beads that I gave you, each of them is equivalent to the full power attack of a low tier totem. Thus, you are not allowed to use them during the Sect's Large Competition. However, if you are able to participate in the Life and Death Trials, then there naturally won't be such a restriction. "Gui Ru Quan thought of something and warned.
Naturally, Liu Ming understood and nodded his head in agreement.
In the remaining time, Martial Aunt Zhong and the other two encouraged Liu Ming a few more times before letting him go back and have a good rest in order to prepare for the competition the next day.
Thus, after Liu Ming bowed to the three of them, he exited the hall and flew down the mountain on a cloud.
"I really didn't expect Cong Tian to be able to enter the top ten. Looks like this time, our faction has a great chance of turning things around. "Gui Ru Quan waited for Liu Ming to walk out of the large hall before letting out a light sigh.
"That's right, Martial Nephew Bai's performance was indeed beyond my expectations. Previously, we had neglected him too much, but now that Junior Martial Sister Zhong has accepted him as a direct disciple and we have heavily rewarded him, even if there was some resentment in his heart, it should have dissipated now. If that's the case, as long as we can challenge him tomorrow and maintain our position in the top ten, and if Martial Nephew Shi succeeds in his challenge, our branch will definitely be able to achieve a good result. We won't need to be at the bottom of the competition anymore, "Zhu Chi said with a smile.
When Martial Aunt Zhong heard this, she gently smiled and did not reply.
"Chuan Er, how are your preparations? Have you thought about who you want to challenge? Do you have the confidence to enter the top ten tomorrow?" Gui Ru Quan turned his head towards Shi Chuan, who was respectfully standing to the side, and asked.
"Master, don't worry. Tomorrow, I plan to challenge the eighth place. I have the Demon Subduing Chain and the Flying Head, so there won't be any problems. "Shi Chuan replied without hesitation.
"Very good, you have this much confidence. The three of us can be at ease. However, we don't know what hidden strength or disciples will appear tomorrow, so you can't be careless. "Gui Ru Quan nodded his head and cautiously warned.
Shi Chuan naturally nodded his head in agreement.
"Senior is too careful. Martial Nephew Shi's strength was originally not weak. Yesterday, he didn't even use his totem or the Flying Head and was able to easily enter the top twenty. Tomorrow, entering the top ten will naturally not be a problem. "Zhu Chi lightly laughed as he spoke.
"I naturally understand this logic, but I am just being cautious. Chuan Er, you should also go and have a good rest. "Gui Ru Quan bitterly laughed before instructing Shi Chuan.
After Shi Chuan responded, he also left the large hall.
"Now it's us. What do you three think about tomorrow's competition? Don't just talk about superficial things, talk about the real thing. In the competition two days ago, although you did not show yourselves, with the help of the formation, you should have gotten a general idea. "Gui Ru Quan waited for Shi Chuan to leave before his expression slightly darkened.
"If it's the truth, then it's hard to say. According to the strength of the disciples in the previous Large Competitions, Martial Nephew Bai and Martial Nephew Shi Chuan should have a high chance of entering the top ten. However, this year's Large Competition is a bit different from the previous years. Not only did there appear Earth Spiritual Pulse, Aphrodite Body, and Spiritual Lightning Spiritual Pulse, these rarely seen genius disciples, Yang Gan, Feng Chan, and Min Shou's strength should have also increased by a shocking amount. "Hearing this, Zhu Chi's expression also became serious.
"Not only that, according to my observations, among the disciples that did not enter the top ten, there are also many who are not weak. I'm afraid that they have been hiding their strength and are waiting to amaze the world tomorrow. Martial Nephew Shi Chuan is still alright. He has the totem and the Flying Head to protect him, so entering the top ten should not be too much of a problem. However, as for Cong Tian, if he really only has the Wind Blade Technique at Perfection, I'm afraid he will not be able to maintain his current ranking tomorrow. "Martial Aunt Zhong shook her head as she spoke.
"Yes, your thoughts are similar to mine. However, among the current disciples, other than the two of them, there is no one else who has the ability to enter the top ten disciples. Although Xiao Feng has entered the Lunar Monument, I'm afraid that he will need to go through a few more years of training before he has this possibility. "Gui Ru Quan lightly sighed.
"Senior, your state of mind is a bit messed up. We have already done all that we can. As for the result, we can only let nature take its course. As for the rest, it is not something that we can change just because we are anxious. "Zhu Chi lightly coughed as he spoke.
Hearing this, Martial Aunt Zhong revealed an expression of agreement.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhu is right. We'll know the results tomorrow. However, for Cong Tian to be able to cultivate to the Late Spirit Apostle level with a Three Spiritual Pulse is a very rare thing. It is a pity that advancing to the Late Spirit Apostle level with a Three Spiritual Pulse is still possible. However, the last time someone with a Three Spiritual Pulse advanced to a Spirit Master was around five or six hundred years ago. " Gui Ru Quan was slightly startled before he laughed. Following this, he changed the topic and brought up Liu Ming.
"Advancing to a Spirit Master with a Three Spiritual Pulse is indeed close to impossible. It is a pity for Martial Nephew Bai's talent in cultivating spells." Zhu Chi also felt that it was a pity.
"That may not necessarily be the case. Since there are precedents, no one can say that this disciple of mine will definitely not be able to become a Spirit Master. At most, it will be a bit more difficult than others. If he is able to participate in the Life and Death Trials and return alive, even with the shocking amount of resources that the Sect has rewarded him with, he will not have a chance at all. "Martial Aunt Zhong had a different opinion.
"If he uses a large amount of resources to forcefully break through to the Spirit Master level, Martial Nephew Bai does indeed have a sliver of a chance. However, he must first be able to maintain his ranking tomorrow. "Gui Ru Quan's eyes slightly flashed as he spoke.
"In the end, everything still depends on the result of tomorrow's competition!" Zhu Chi also muttered.
After saying these words, the three of them all had different expressions as they muttered to themselves. The entire hall was silent for a while.
At the same time, Liu Ming, who had returned to the Cultivation Room, was admiring the newly obtained yellow inner armor in his hands.
When he touched it with his hand, although the bamboo skewers that formed the Seal Armor were slightly cold, the surface was not extremely hard. Instead, it gave off an abnormally flexible feeling.
After he infused some Fa Li into it, the Spirit Inscriptions on the surface of the bamboo skewers immediately emitted a faint spiritual light, giving off a dreamy and beautiful feeling.
Seeing this, Liu Ming couldn't help but become increasingly happy.
Although Practitioner Weapons were not rare in the Sect and markets, special Practitioner Weapons like Seal Armor were extremely rare. At the very least, he had only seen a few in the Wei Zhou Market. Moreover, all of them were sold at sky-high prices that were close to that of a Totem.
Although this Seal Armor was damaged and could only withstand two or three more Spirit Apostle level attacks before it was completely destroyed, to Liu Ming, it was still a treasure that could save his life at a crucial moment. Although this Seal Armor was damaged and could only withstand two or three more Spirit Apostle level attacks, to Liu Ming, it was still a treasure that could save his life at a crucial moment.
Liu Ming slightly inspected the entire armor. After confirming that there were no other problems, he immediately put it on close to his undergarments and covered it with a green robe.
In this way, no abnormalities could be seen from the outside.
Subsequently, he took out the iron box and porcelain bottle that contained the Scarlet Flame Beads and Blood Marrow Pills. He opened their lids and looked at them.
The Scarlet Flame Beads were impressively three black round beads the size of broad beans. They looked unremarkable.
On the other hand, the Blood Marrow Pills were ten or so bean-sized blood-colored pills. When he placed them under his nose, he could faintly smell a sweet fragrance.
Although these Blood Marrow Pills were not enough to refine the Blood Essence in his body, they could still remove some of the impurities in his Blood Essence. This would allow his Blood Essence to become more vigorous in the future.
Since he still had to continue participating in the competition tomorrow, now was naturally not the time to take these Blood Marrow Pills and directly refine his Blood Essence.
Thus, after Liu Ming put away the Scarlet Flame Beads and Blood Marrow Pills, he calmly breathed in and out.
To him, tomorrow was a day that he could not afford to fail.
As Liu Ming indifferently pondered, his mind gradually entered a meditative state. He was completely unaware of the outside world.
On the morning of the third day, thousands of Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples once again rushed to the top of the stone mountain.
This time, all of the disciples clustered around the largest stone platform at the top of the mountain. Moreover, the jade platform that the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader and the other Spirit Masters were on was directly suspended over a hundred feet above the stone platform.
"You should already know the specific rules of the second round, so I won't say anything more. Now, I announce that the second round of the Large Competition has officially begun. " After the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader flew out from the jade platform, he indifferently announced before flying back.
At this time, a chubby old man flew down from the jade platform and steadily landed on the stone platform. After sweeping his gaze around, he smiled and said:
"Who am I? I believe that there are very few Martial Nephews that don't know me. The second round of the competition will be hosted by me. "
This chubby old man was impressively the "Martial Uncle Ruan" who was originally in charge of the Scripture Pavilion!
