The terrain of the Honglie Continent was peculiar. Mountains surrounded and arched around it, rising up to a height of a hundred feet from the surface of the sea. There was a basin in the middle. At this moment, it was the time for the Grand Competition. Thus, there was a huge decorated archway that was thirty feet tall erected in all four directions. Behind the decorated archway, there were many gates.
If the disciples of the sect passed through, they would be led to the pavilions in the mountains, where they would have their own seats and wouldn't be crowded together.
When the Wang sisters and Li Guo Zhi arrived, they heard the sound of a golden bell in the distance. It was pleasing to the ear and soothing to the heart. The chiming sound came from afar, and rainbow lights danced in the sky. Auspicious colors dyed the clouds, auspicious lights lingered, and spiritual birds and flying boats came and went.
When they arrived in front of the mountain, a Daoist riding a white crane came to welcome them. He bowed and said, "May I ask where my fellow disciples came from? I can arrange the seating arrangements. "
Now that the disciples of the various sects and islands had arrived, the supervising disciples in charge of leading the way were also very busy.
However, all the disciples couldn't be treated the same, there had to be a hierarchy. If they came from a famous master, they would be given a good pavilion. Not only would they be able to watch the disciples fight, they would also be able to bring servants and maids to serve them well. In short, they wouldn't be mistreated.
As for those who weren't famous and didn't come from any powerful cultivators, they could only be arranged to have tens of them gather together, barely sharing a pavilion. Because of this, there wasn't much comfort to speak of.
There might even be disciples who didn't get along with each other, but these weren't within the considerations of the supervising Daoist.
If they broke the sect's rules, they could order a strong man to ask them to leave.
This was also the first time Li Guo Zhi came to watch the competition. He had heard about the rules from his fellow sect members. He was a person of status and didn't want to be looked down upon by the Wang sisters and Tian Kun. He also saw that this Daoist's cultivation wasn't much lower than his, so he took the initiative and said, "I'm a disciple of Immortal Ying Island's Master Yu. I hope that the supervising Daoist can arrange a good place for us to go. "
"So you're from Immortal Ying Island."
When the supervising Daoist heard his words, he glanced at him and lazily threw over a talisman. He pointed behind him and said, "Do you see the flag gate at the Dui position? You can go here with this talisman. Go quickly. "
"This …"
Li Guozhi's expression couldn't help but change. He was placed in the west seat?
Moreover, this talisman didn't look like a good place to go. He took a deep breath. He then said, "This deacon, can you change to another one? I'm a disciple of Immortal Ying Island. My master is Yu Jian Cheng Yao, a disciple of Meng Zhen."
He was afraid that the Daoist did not know his background. Who knew that after hearing this, the Taoist frowned and looked at him, an impatient look on his face. He snorted and urged the crane under him. She ignored him and went into the distance.
Li Guozhi was thrown to the ground and was stunned.
Wang Caiting's mind was lively and she immediately understood what was going on. But when she saw Li Guozhi's embarrassed expression, she thought it was very amusing and giggled. He teased, "Senior Brother Li, it's like the talisman in your hand. Can we go to a good pavilion? "
Wang Caiwei pulled her and looked at her with a reproachful look. She turned to Li Guozhi and said, "Senior Brother Li, my sister is speaking nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
Li Guozhi's face heated up and he could only smile bitterly.
Tian Kun said, "Isn't it the same no matter where we go? Why do we have to be so particular? "
Wang Caiwei smiled and said, "Second Senior Brother is right. We are disciples of the Mysterious Sect, not those weak people who can't bear to be wronged. We've already lived through three years of hardship, why would we care about a mere seat?"
When Li Guo Zhi heard this, he felt a bit ashamed. However, this matter involved his master's reputation, so it wasn't appropriate for him to say anything. He could only remain silent and nod at the three. He glanced at the talisman, then turned the flying boat around and headed for the exchange flag gate.
The attendant Daoist left with an unhappy expression. Not long after, a white-robed Daoist came up and proudly raised the item in his hand. He said, "Pi Rong, what do you think this is?"
The attendant Daoist took a look and immediately widened his eyes. He cried out in surprise, "Cloud … Cloud Sand? How did you get it? "
This Cloud Sand was plump and could be considered to be not bad. If he used it to trade, he could get at least a thousand spirit shells. His eyes turned red from looking at it.
The white-robed Daoist deliberately waved it in front of him a few more times before putting it away. He said complacently, "I just sent a member of the Chen clan into the mountain. He heard that my surname is also Chen. He saw that I served him well, so he casually tossed me this. Hehe, this time I can go to the nine cities and have fun for a while."
Disciples like them had only randomly found a few waste ponds to open their meridians. They didn't expect to achieve much in this life, so they had long since given up on cultivation. However, they could still eat, drink, and play in the nine cities. They could enjoy their wealth and be above everyone else.
However, they didn't have many sources of income and were usually very poor. Today, they were called over to serve the disciples and thought that it was a lucrative job. Of course, they wanted to earn some money.
"A member of the Chen clan, one of the five big clans. Brother Chen, you are really lucky …"
The attendant Daoist's face was full of envy. He then said angrily, "Why didn't I also meet someone from an influential clan! I only met a bunch of poor bastards! "
The white-robed Daoist looked at him and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Could it be that you didn't meet someone with money? "
The Deacon Daoist was filled with resentment as he said, "Don't mention it. In this half a day, I've received tens of people consecutively, but I haven't seen a single one that looked good. Just now, I met a person who looked rather extravagant. Initially, I thought he was a member of some aristocratic family, so I went to greet him excitedly. Who knew that this person would say that he was a disciple of Immortal Ying Island? Could it be that I don't know that Island Lord Meng Zhen is my grand disciple? However, this person has cultivated for hundreds of years and is only at the Mystic Light Realm. It's hard to say if Meng Zhen still remembers him, so I gave him a position exchange talisman. If he gave me some good stuff, I might have exchanged it for him. However, I didn't expect him to be so ignorant so I didn't bother with him anymore. "
When the white-robed Daoist heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. Then, he couldn't help but look back. His eyes were very good and apart from Li Guozhi, he immediately saw the Wang sisters. At first, he didn't pay much attention but his expression changed slightly. He took a few steps closer and finally saw clearly. He exclaimed, "Pi Rong, do you want to die?"
The deacon Daoist frowned. He scolded, "Chen Gu, don't provoke me."
The white-robed Daoist grabbed the crane rope in his hand and said anxiously, "Quick, follow me, we can still make it."
The Deacon Daoist was baffled and stopped him, "Hold on, make yourself clear."
The white-robed Daoist glared at him and pulled him up, "There's no time, let's talk as we walk."
He hurriedly urged the red-crowned crane under him. Then, they started walking.
The deacon Daoist felt strange. However, he knew that the other party wouldn't play tricks on him, so he didn't insist and followed. He heard the white-robed Daoist say, "I know those two girls too, they're the daughter and daughter of the Wang Clan in Jiu Yi City …"
The deacon Daoist twitched his mouth. He said, "They're just a rich family in the city, so what if they're from a big clan? Look at how anxious you are. "
The white-robed Daoist laughed coldly, "The Wang sisters aren't much, and the Wang Clan isn't much either. However, the two of them have a good master."
The deacon Daoist suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he still said stubbornly, "How can there be any powerful people on Immortal Ying Island …"
The white-robed Daoist interrupted him, "These two Wang sisters aren't disciples of Immortal Ying. They're obviously disciples of that Zhao You Heavenly Lake's Manor Head Zhang! "
When the deacon Daoist heard this, his mind buzzed. His face turned pale and his teeth chattered, "You, you're saying that they're Zhang. Zhang Yan, Manor Head Zhang's disciple? "
The white-robed Daoist nodded heavily.
The deacon Daoist's head was covered in cold sweat. Zhang Yan was famous among the younger generation disciples. It could be said that everyone knew that the seating arrangement was inappropriate. Offending his disciple was a small matter, but if they thought that he was purposely trying to embarrass him, then that would be fatal.
Thinking of this, he did not dare to dawdle here. He hurriedly leaped the red-crowned crane under him and rushed ahead of the white-robed Taoist. In a panic, he chased after the flying ship. Looking at it from afar, he anxiously shouted, "Uncle-Masters, please wait, please wait …"
While the Wang sisters were heading towards the Honglie Continent, Liu Yanyi and Qiu Hanyue were heading towards the Merit Courtyard.
It wasn't time for her, a Mystic Light Realm cultivator, to fight yet, so she still had free time to come here.
When they arrived outside the Merit Courtyard, someone recognized them and immediately went in to report. Not long later, Qi Mengjiao came out with a smile and said, "Why did the two of you think of coming to see me?"
Liu Yanyi smiled sweetly and said, "The competition is coming soon, so we came to stay here for a few days. This way, we won't have to run around and we can also learn from you."
Qi Mengjiao welcomed the two of them into the inner room and ordered a maid to serve them tea. After some small talk, the topic changed to the sect's competition.
Qi Mengjiao smiled and said, "Yanyi, now that you've obtained the Moonless Sword Pellet, you'll be able to win a lot of benefits for yourself in this competition. If you win first place, the Uncertain Sect will pass down some minor techniques to you. However, you need to be careful of that Yuan Yanhui. I heard that she's asked many famous experts, and her swordsmanship has improved by another level."
Liu Yanyi nodded silently. That day on Yingluo Island, she had lost to this woman, causing the sword pellet to be regretful. However, she was still quite unconvinced.
After fighting with Xiao Bo a few times, she felt that her swordsmanship had improved greatly. She wanted to compete with him again in the competition to see who was stronger and who was weaker.
Qi Mengjiao looked at her and said sincerely, "Yanyi, a few days ago, I also saw your master. I saw that he was a person with great ambition, and he must want to fight for the position of the top ten disciples. Seeing that you and I are sisters, you can go back and give your master a word of advice. However, this competition is different from the past. No matter how you fight, there might not be any results. Why not give up for now and wait until the next competition? Maybe you'll have a chance."
Liu Yanyi was shocked and said, "Sister, what do you mean?"
She knew that Qi Mengjiao's identity was different. This woman was Qi Yuntian's adopted disciple since she was a child, so she often knew some news that others did not.
Qi Mengjiao stretched out her slender white jade-like finger and pointed upward. She said seriously, "The competition of the top ten disciples is just a chess game played by those Taoist Taoist Masters behind the scenes. Who will be the winner and who will be the loser has been decided before the competition. And this competition is related to the changes of the sect. It will be even more difficult for your master to break out of the situation. It's almost …"
She paused, shook her head, and sighed. "It's almost impossible."
