"The Dharma Assembly will start with the foundation building cultivators' competition before the Golden Elixir period begins. It's fine if that cultivator arrives a little late, as long as he can make it to the final competition." Zhu Yi said lightly, "I have to thank Princess Xingyun for the reminder."
Shi Xingyun turned around, tilted his head, and looked at Zhu Yi for a moment. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "Speaking of which, that person is quite similar to Brother Zhu Yi. He's also a scholar. He was the top scorer in the Imperial Examination of the Great Qin Dynasty last year. He was ranked first in the Imperial Examination."
Zhu Yi's eyes flashed, "Oh? To be able to stand out among the thousands of candidates of the Great Qin Dynasty, this person must be very knowledgeable. Even if we can't compete in Dao techniques, we can still exchange knowledge. Very good, very good. "
Shi Xingyun giggled, "Are all the disciples of Xuanmen Tianzong so arrogant? I'll be waiting to see. "
Looking at her leaving figure, Zhu Yi tilted his head slightly and said Silently, "I don't think she's half."
Lin Feng, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly smiled and said, "The Great Qin Dynasty's royal family is legitimate. Yuanying Chong Yun, Golden Elixir Nebula. Although this saying hasn't been completely spread, it's not a secret."
He opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Budian, smiling, "This sister of yours is not simple."
Xiao Budian's expression was indifferent as he spread his hands, "It doesn't matter. In my realm, other than my own brothers and sisters, I'm invincible."
"Master, you should at least have confidence in us!"
Lin Feng said leisurely, "Of course I have confidence in you, especially in you."
Not waiting for a smile to appear on the little guy's face, Lin Feng continued: "I'm especially confident in your gluttony and ability to cause trouble."
"Uh!" Xiao Budian choked and immediately felt guilty. He saw Lin Feng looking at him with a faint smile, "You guys stole the Storm Cloud Wind Beast from the Northern Martial Royal Court, right?"
Xiao Budian chuckled and pushed Tuntun and Zhuge Fengling in front of him, "It was their idea. I'm just following them to prevent them from causing uncontrollable trouble."
Tuntun and Zhuge Fengling rolled their eyes at the same time and looked at Xiao Budian with disdain.
Xiao Budian laughed and patted Tuntun's belly, "Don't worry Master, the fur and bones are all in there. Not even a single horse hair is left. I used to think her eating method was too crude, but now it seems like it is quite useful."
Xiao Budian grinned and patted Tuntun's little belly. "Don't worry master, the fur, skin, and bones are all inside. Not even a strand of horse hair is left. I used to think that her way of eating was too crude, but now it seems that it's quite useful."
Tuntun bared its teeth at him. "Don't give me that. I haven't settled the score with you for kicking me just now!"
"You were asking for it," Xiao Budian replied nonchalantly.
Lin Feng ignored these clowns and turned to look at Yang Qing. The young man was curiously looking at the cultivators from the other sects with a slightly nervous expression.
Before in Yuzhou city Lin Feng let the disciples go out to do their own things. Only Yang Qing returned to her residence after taking a stroll, making use of the last bit of time to figure out dao techniques and practice spells. She was like a nervous examinee revising before going to the exam.
Perhaps he himself knew that the little bit of time he had would not be of much use, but he could not help but want to make use of that time, even if it was just for his own peace of mind.
Lin Feng knew that Yang Qing did not really want to participate in this Desolate Sea Assembly. He might be curious about the Ancient Desolate Sea Realm, but he was still a little conflicted about competing with others.
It was not that he was afraid, but he was not confident.
"Master can protect you for a while, and I can protect you forever," Lin Feng said indifferently. "But think about it carefully. Is that really the life you want?"
"Living under the wings of others forever, never experiencing wind and rain. Although it will be much less dangerous, it will also be much less exciting."
Yang Qing took a deep breath, composed himself, and said softly, "Disciple understands. Disciple will definitely do his best and not embarrass the sect."
"It's not about losing face for yourself. It's not that easy to lose my master's face." Lin Feng looked into his eyes. "Think about the Cloud Water Cave, think about a certain person that you miss."
Yang Qing became spirited. "Disciple was wrong. Don't worry, Master. I know what to do."
Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction and sighed in his heart. "Fifth Brother's willpower … There is still a long way to go. But as long as I can succeed, it will be worth it no matter how much effort I put in." His eyes met Yang Qing's, and a Taoist formula was transmitted through an invisible bridge into Yang Qing's mind.
Yang Qing quickly memorized the formula taught by Lin Feng. After memorizing it, he was a little confused. "Master, these formula …"
Lin Feng said, "This Taoist method can be regarded as a branch of Master's Taoist method. You will come into contact with it sooner or later. But if you learn it now, it will be of great help to improve your strength."
"However, how much you can comprehend depends on yourself."
Yang Qing nodded, sat down cross-legged, and began to carefully comprehend it.
At this time, the first round of drawing lots for the competition between the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage had begun.
Dao Master Chang Le personally wrote the name of each cultivator, and then put the names into a huge copper bottle. Then, the names were drawn in pairs to determine the final order of the battle.
All the leaders of the major sects were watching together. In this case, cheating was impossible. Even if there was only a little doubt, the final result would be rejected.
If one could really cheat, then it was because one had great ability, and the others had nothing to say.
However, Dao Master Chang Le clearly did not have any plans to cheat. The others also expressed confidence in the results of the draw, and unanimously passed.
Although the Sun Moon Sword Sect was allowed to participate in the competition as a pair, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, Sun Moon Sword Venerable only chose four disciples to participate in the competition, two in a pair. Therefore, including Xuanmen Tianzong who had one less person, the first round of the Foundation Establishment Stage competition would have three vacancies.
It was hard to say whether it was good news or bad news. Of the three vacancies in the first round, two of them were Xuanmen Tianzong disciples.
Wang Lin and Yang Qing both vacated.
Yue Hongyan was the only one who participated in the first round and won without much effort.
The first round of competition quickly determined the final sixteen. Most people actually did not care much about the first round. In the competition between the Foundation Establishment Stage disciples, only the top eight could obtain a spot to enter the Ancient Desolate Sea World. The second round of competition between the top sixteen to the top eight was the main show.
However, the final result made the big shots of the various sects feel differently.
Of the sixteen people, there were two from the Purple Sky Dao, two from the Skypond Sect, two from the Huo family, and one from the Celeritas Sword Sect.
The Sun Moon Sword Sect's Dual Sword Harmony was indeed overbearing. The two pairs of four people all advanced to the top sixteen. Although they took up two spots, considering that Sun Moon Sword Venerable only sent these four people to participate, it was equivalent to everyone advancing to the top sixteen.
In the first round of competition, the Sun Moon Sword Sect's pair also displayed superior strength. Although the opponents they met were all from the same sect, two against two was not the Sun Moon Sword Sect's match at all.
Not mentioning the difference in strength, just the level of tacit understanding, the temporary combination could not compare to the sword companions who were often together.
On the other hand, Lin Feng's Xuan Men Sky Sect had three people participating in the competition, and all three of them advanced. Although it was also a 100% success rate of advancing, it didn't seem very convincing. After all, Wang Lin and Yang Qing both got a bye and advanced directly. It couldn't help but make others secretly scold them for getting lucky.
What was slightly out of the ordinary was that only two people from the Great Qin Dynasty's officials entered the top sixteen. But this was also within reason. After all, in the first round, they were very unlucky to fight amongst themselves. Two Great Qin Dynasty cultivators were drawn together, and only one could advance.
That competition could also be considered the highlight of the first round. Both sides displayed their strong points, both with exceptional strength, making many people feel regretful. If they encountered cultivators from other sects, most likely it would be them who eliminated their opponents and then both advancing.
After the first round of competition, there was no rest, immediately the second round of drawing lots began.
The rules of the Desolate Sea Assembly were that after every round of competition, lots would be drawn anew. No one could predict who they might encounter in the next round.
In Lin Feng's view, this kind of model has its pros and cons, it all depends on the strength of their supervision. If no trickery occurs then this kind of rule can be considered to be relatively fair.
During the first round of drawing lots, Lin Feng noticed that Wang Lin's gaze was tightly fixed on the copper bottle. When the result of him getting a bye was drawn, although Wang Lin's expression did not change, his gaze revealed disappointment.
Lin Feng secretly laughed, knowing that Wang Lin was waiting to teach that Huo Family seventeenth young master Huo Chen a lesson.
Right at this time, Wang Lin and his opponent were already drawn. The result was not Huo Chen, but a Great Qin Dynasty imperial family disciple.
And Huo Chen's opponent was the sole remaining Celeritas Sword Sect disciple.
Looking at the somewhat disappointed Wang Lin, Lin Feng patted his shoulder: "Keep your mind calm, don't let others affect you."
Wang Lin nodded his head, after a moment of silence he said in a low voice: "I want to stop him outside of the top eight, thoroughly shattering his hopes."
Lin Feng turned his head to look, the coldness in Wang Lin's eyes made him tremble a bit. Lin Feng couldn't help but start praying for Huo Chen in his heart: "Brat, you're screwed!"
He thought for a moment, the corners of his mouth revealing a smile: "No matter what round you meet him in, the Hidden Dragon Pot's defense mechanism will activate. But after entering the Ancient Desolate Sea World, it will be different."
Wang Lin's eyes immediately lit up, the corners of his mouth also revealing a smile: "Master is right, disciple now suddenly hopes that he can smoothly advance to the top eight."
Lin Feng smiled: "Don't worry about others first, you brat first charge into the top eight for master."
"Don't worry master." Wang Lin said, already leaping up, jumping towards the mouth of the Hidden Dragon Pot. The Hidden Dragon Pot floating in the air is still only the size of a person's palm, but Wang Lin's body rapidly shrunk after flying to the mouth of the pot, finally becoming like a grain of sand falling into the Hidden Dragon Pot.
And his opponent also similarly entered the Hidden Dragon Pot.
