When Long Yu left the Border City Trading Firm, he already had a large pile of Elixirs on him.
Among them, there were four different Spirit Level Top Grade Elixirs and one Spirit Level Top Grade Elixir, which Long Yu bought for a total of ten Crystal Nucleus.
He still had two Crystal Nucleus on him, which could be used in the future.
"Thank you, Senior Wen."
After coming out, Long Yu thanked Wen Lun, a middle-aged man in a black robe.
"You're welcome. Why don't you come to our Wen Mansion?"
Wen Lun smiled kindly.
"No, the Border City Martial Meet starts tomorrow. I still have to take these elixirs when I go back."
Long Yu smiled apologetically.
"Forget it, I'll introduce you to my son when I have the chance. Haha, thank you for your Star Sea Sword. Goodbye."
Wen Lun cupped his fists and said, then turned and left.
Long Yu looked at his back, then turned and left, walking towards the inn that he and Chi Xiaoxue had booked.
One Spirit Level Top Grade Elixir and four Spirit Level Top Grade Elixirs were still not enough for Long Yu to advance to the sixth level of the True Spirit Realm. Even though he had the Nine Underworld Dragon Seal and could absorb all the elixirs, it was still not enough.
However, there were only five kinds of Spirit Level Top Grade and Spirit Level Top Grade Elixirs that could be taken out in the entire Border City Trading Firm.
Although there were many of the same elixirs in the Border City Trading Firm, it was of no use to Long Yu. Only the first elixir was effective for Martial Cultivators. Taking the same elixir twice would reduce the effect by more than half.
Chi Xiaoxue did not rest in the inn that day, but went out to inquire about some news.
When Long Yu returned, Chi Xiaoxue was not there, so he ignored her and went straight to his room to take the elixirs he bought.
Spirit Level Top Grade and Spirit Level Top Grade Elixirs were quite rare for ordinary Martial Cultivators.
For example, the Long Yue Golden Elixir that Long Yu had previously obtained was a Spirit Level Top Grade Elixir, which was the highest honor of the Tang Empire's Martial Army.
For the disciples of the great clans and sects, pills were not rare items. For example, the Long Clan of the Generals, the Chu Clan of the Imperial Clan, and so on.
For the descendants of these clans, what they needed to advance was to break through the bottleneck. As for the accumulation of spiritual energy, they had enough pills to provide them.
Naturally, the speed at which they improved their Martial Dao realm was much faster than that of ordinary people.
Long Yu spent most of the night consuming all five elixirs and absorbing all the Spiritual Qi within them. He felt that he was not far from reaching Lv 6 of the True Spirit Realm.
His Heavenly Veins had already been refined to the next level, and the Heaven Suppressing Sun True Spirit in his Dantian had also been refined into a solid form. Only the Nine Abyss True Spirit still needed some Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to refine.
If he didn't have any other pills or external assistance, Long Yu would probably need two years to advance by relying on his own absorption speed of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
But if he could get his hands on another Spiritual Level Supreme-Grade Elixir, he would be able to step into Lv 6 True Spirit Realm!
He could feel that there was no huge bottleneck between him and the sixth layer of the True Spirit Secret Realm. As long as he had enough Spiritual Qi, it shouldn't be hard for him to break through.
The key was the Unity of the True Spirit.
In order to reach the Unity of the True Spirit, one must have an extremely strong understanding of the True Spirit and the laws of heaven and earth. It wasn't something that could be achieved in a short period of time.
"It seems that I still have to wait for a while …"
Long Yu stood up and heaved a sigh of relief.
If he could get to know an Alchemist and teach him how to refine pills, that would be great. He could go out to collect medicinal ingredients and refine pills himself to improve his Martial Dao realm.
Previously, he had a chance in the Soaring Sky Tribe, but unfortunately, it was destroyed by the young man from the Soaring Sky Tribe.
Of course, Long Yu didn't feel that it was a pity.
Demonic beasts were demonic beasts after all. Although they called themselves demonic cultivators, they were not the same race as humans.
…
The next morning, Long Yu and Chi Xiaoxue went to the North Sea Border City's Martial Arena together.
The Border City Martial Meet this time was held in the Martial Arena. This was the place where the North Sea Border City's City Lord's Mansion usually trained the martial army.
Because it was a border city, the North Sea Border City's City Lord's Mansion was in charge of many martial armies. They were usually trained, and in the event of an emergency, they could act as a defensive force.
The number of martial armies in the entire North Sea Border City was not small, reaching up to 50,000 soldiers.
Although most of the 50,000 soldiers were Martial Cultivators who could not condense the True Spirit, when they gathered together, they were an extremely terrifying force.
At least for now, Long Yu didn't dare to confront the 50,000 soldiers head-on.
The North Sea Border City's Martial Arena was guarded by many martial armies, and it was already full of people.
Although there were less than a thousand participants in this Border City Martial Meet, it had attracted almost all the Martial Cultivators in the city to watch. The reason was simple, the scale of this Martial Meet was quite large, and the participants were all martial artists above the fifth level of the True Spirit Realm!
Moreover, the final winner of the Martial Meet would be fully trained by the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan, so that they would have the opportunity to participate in the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection two years later. The Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection was the highest honor for ordinary Martial Cultivators in the entire Heavenly Mandate Continent.
"Brother Long, your opponent in the first round is Ling Feiliang."
Chi Xiaoxue quickly received the first-hand news, and her expression didn't look too good.
His first match was against an expert at the seventh tier of the True Spirit Realm. His luck was really bad!
In this Martial Meet, those at the seventh tier of the True Spirit Realm could be said to be the strongest group of people. As long as they reached the seventh tier of the True Spirit Realm, even if they didn't perform well in the Martial Meet, it was very likely that they would be recruited by the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan.
Because the threshold to participate in the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection was to reach the seventh tier of the True Spirit Realm before the age of 30. They came to the North Sea Border City to select young geniuses who could reach this level within two years.
As for those who had reached the True Spirit Realm, they certainly wouldn't let them go.
"It's okay."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect things to be so coincidental.
When they first entered the North Sea Border City, he and Chi Xiaoxue were ridiculed by Ling Feiliang, who was wearing a clown mask. He didn't expect to meet him so soon.
The entire Martial Meet used an elimination system. Nearly a thousand people would fight each other in pairs. The winners would advance, and the losers would be eliminated until the final 32 were decided.
If an expert at the seventh tier of the True Spirit Realm was eliminated, then he would have a chance to challenge any one of the 32 people.
If he won, then he would replace the 32 people. In the end, the 32 people would be recruited by the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan and trained for two years.
This was an excellent opportunity for many Martial Cultivators in the Jianghu. Because of this, it attracted so many people to participate and watch.
Before the start of the competition, Long Yu looked around, but he didn't see Mo Fengming and Liu Yuan.
"There are too many people. We'll see them when they go on stage."
Chi Xiaoxue smiled and said, "Just like how we used fake names, they must have used fake names to participate in the Martial Meet, so I didn't see their names on the list."
"Yes."
Long Yu nodded and didn't think too much about it.
He raised his head and saw two Martial Cultivators in blue sitting on the platform of the Martial Arena. They carried a quiver on their back and sat high up in the center.
"Those two are the disciples of the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan. They are considered great people in the North Sea Border City."
Chi Xiaoxue introduced.
The disciples of the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan in the North Sea Border City were like the disciples of the Great Tang Empire in the Jade Pass City. They would naturally receive the best treatment.
"The one next to the two disciples of the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan is the son of the North Sea Border City's City Lord, Young City Lord Xing Liang."
Then, Chi Xiaoxue pointed to a young man on the platform with an oily face. He was wearing a battle weapon, a battle weapon on his back, a battle weapon on his waist, a battle weapon on his feet, and a battle weapon on his head …
This Young City Lord Xing Liang was wearing at least a High Rank Spirit Level battle weapon. He was like a wandering merchant selling battle weapons, but this kid was proud of it!
Needless to say, the son of the City Lord was indeed rich.
Soon, the Martial Gathering officially began under the announcement of the two disciples of the Ten Thousand Arrow Clan. Although these two people were only in the Martial Dao Realm of the Lv 8 True Spirit Realm, no one in the North Sea Border City dared to offend them, not even the City Lord.
"I'll go first."
Long Yu listened to the announcement of the first round of matches, stood up and walked towards the arena.
Jun Buyan versus Ling Feiliang, Lv 5 True Spirit Realm versus Lv 7 True Spirit Realm!
The North Sea Border City's Martial Arts Arena could accommodate ten battles at the same time. Every ten matches was called a round, and in the first ten matches of the first round, the battle between Long Yu and Ling Feiliang was the one that attracted the most attention.
This was because Ling Feiliang was the first expert of the Lv 7 True Spirit Realm to fight!
Everyone's eyes were focused on Ling Feiliang, who was wearing a clown mask. They wanted to see how this expert of the Lv 7 True Spirit Realm would defeat a kid of the Lv 5 True Spirit Realm.
This was a battle with a great disparity in strength. No one cared about winning or losing. What they wanted to see was Ling Feiliang's wonderful performance!
"Kid, you're so unlucky to meet me in the first round."
Ling Feiliang's thin figure walked onto the arena and stood opposite to Long Yu. There was a disdainful chuckle under the clown mask, "If you surrender now, kneel down and call me grandpa, I can spare your life!"
Hearing these arrogant words, all the surrounding spectators roared with laughter.
No one thought that Ling Feiliang was boasting, and no one thought that there was anything wrong with his words. After all, he was an expert of the Lv 7 True Spirit Realm!
An expert had the absolute right to speak.
"If you surrender now, kneel down and call me grandpa, I can spare your life."
Long Yu calmly returned the same words to Ling Feiliang.
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd fell silent for a moment. Then, there was an even louder burst of laughter.
Was there something wrong with this kid's brain?
A kid of the Lv 5 True Spirit Realm dared to imitate Ling Feiliang, who was at the Lv 7 True Spirit Realm!
