The old woman from Fuyao Palace did not search for too long. Soon, they returned to Fuyao Palace and reported to Lady Xuan, "We've searched the entire Blue Cloud Sect, but we didn't find any suspicious people, nor did we sense the aura of the Boundless Heaven Art. However, it seems that there are two Golden Elixir Realm Grand Supreme Elders in this sect who are in Closed Door Meditation. It's best to pay them a visit to confirm if they are the people we're looking for …"
Lady Xuan shook her head and said, "There's no need for that. They're in Closed Door Meditation. If we rashly knock on their doors, even if we have a chance of forming Yuanying, our hope will be destroyed. It would be too disrespectful. Let's drop this matter. Anyway, our main purpose for coming here is to create Nan Zhan's Mental Map. The Sage of Divine Strategy Palace has predicted that the Nine Coffins might have some unusual movements in the near future, and there's a possibility that they might send their inheritance to Nan Zhan. As long as we have this map, no matter where the Nine Coffins send their inheritance to Nan Zhan, we, Fuyao Palace, will be able to seize the initiative. We can't lose the bigger picture because of a small thing!"
"Heh, how can a small sect really have any hope of forming Yuanying? They're just waiting for death. But the Lord is kind, so let's forget about it!"
Granny Qian smiled, somewhat disapproving, but she still obeyed Lady Xuan's words.
The news of the Blue Cloud Sect's Inner Sanctum Martial Arts Competition spread quickly throughout the sect.
The Sect Leader had already announced that all the disciples who ranked in the top ten in the martial arts competition would be rewarded with generous resources, especially the champion of the martial arts competition, who would receive a Foundation Establishment Elixir from an esteemed guest of Fuyao Palace.
As soon as the news spread, the disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect were immediately excited.
The Foundation Establishment Elixir for the champion of the martial arts competition was not an extravagant hope for them. The only ones who had a chance of getting it were Xiao and Xu. However, in addition to the Foundation Establishment Elixir, the other rewards also made them very excited.
"The martial arts arena is located at the Hidden Cloud Peak's Small Thousand Rock. This rock is the place where the Blue Cloud Sect's Taoist Ancestor, Yun Youzi, used to go into seclusion to cross his tribulation. There is a Spirit Array set up there, so it will not be disturbed by the outside world. Once you enter the Spirit Array, it can only be opened from the inside by the Spirit Array, or by the combined efforts of the Sovereign and the four Elders of the four valleys. In addition, because the distinguished guests of Fu Yao Palace do not wish for the martial arts arena to be too fake, the Sovereign did not set a rule that no one can be disabled. In other words, this martial arts arena is actually very dangerous. If you encounter a critical situation, even the Elders of the four valleys will not be able to intervene in time.
Within the True Forging Valley, Tie Rukuang solemnly instructed his disciples. After pondering for a moment, he said, "During the sparring session, if you encounter a disciple of the Celestial Worship Palace, you must be careful. Even if you admit defeat … there's no way to defend against it!"
All the disciples were solemn. Obviously, they all knew how powerful Palace Long's disciples were.
Fang Xing, who was standing beside him and listening, said with some disdain, "So what if I'm a Palace Long's disciple?"
Iron Like Madness turned around and slapped him, scolding, "I'm not talking about you!"
Fang Xing said, "I'm also a disciple of the Makshin Valley!"
Iron Like Madness said, "I can teach a little monster like you, but you better remember that Xiao Shan He has always disliked you. I've also heard that you and Xiao Jianming don't get along. If you meet him during the martial arts exhibition, it's best if you don't fight for a moment of pride. That Xiao Jianming has been a combat cultivator since he started cultivating. He's the purest combat cultivator in Blue Cloud Sect, and he's not weak at all. Although you're not bad, compared to him, you're still a little too young. Keep your life, and you'll have a chance to surpass him in the future!"
Iron Like Madness earnestly exhorted. Although he said that Fang Xing was not taught by him, in his heart, he truly regarded him as his true disciple. When he said, "I can't teach a little monster like you," rather than saying that he denied that Fang Xing was his disciple, it would be better to say that he was full of envy. In his heart, he really hoped that he was the one who taught this kid with a bright future.
"If he succeeds this time, even if I have three legs, I won't be able to surpass him … …"
On the surface, Fang Xing agreed with a smile, but in his heart, he thought, "I reckon that other than this time, I won't have any other chance to kill this guy. Although I haven't mastered the 108,000 swords yet, I can only give it a try … …"
… …
… …
At the same time, in the Mountain River Valley, Xiao Shan He said to Xiao Jianming with a gloomy face, "This is a chance for you. Xu Lingyun has already broken through to the 9th Spirit Formation Realm, and is diligently practicing the Green Flame Forging Art. It's obvious that Qing Niao wants her to compete with you. When the time comes, you must not hold back. Even if you have to kill her, you must get that Foundation Establishment Pill!"
Xiao Jianming was slightly startled. As if he had made up his mind, he said in a deep voice, "I understand!"
Xiao Shan He nodded his head and frowned slightly. After a while, he said, "That little demon, seems to have broken through … …"
A trace of hatred flashed across Xiao Jianming's face, and he said coldly, "When I first met him in the Desolate Mountains, he was only at the 4th Spirit Formation Realm. Later, when he returned, he seemed to have reached the 6th Spirit Formation Realm. Now that I haven't seen him for three months, he has broken through to the 7th Spirit Formation Realm … … This cultivation speed is too shocking. Uncle, I can be sure that there must be a secret on this little demon!"
Xiao Shan He pondered for a while, and said, "Martial Uncle Bai must have passed him some amazing martial arts. Otherwise, even if he has endless resources, he wouldn't be able to increase his cultivation so fast. However, if his cultivation increases too fast, his foundation will definitely be unstable. The reason why this little demon is so outstanding is because he has the most solid foundation. Now that his cultivation has increased so fast, he shouldn't be as difficult to deal with as before. You don't have to worry about him, I will arrange for someone to test his depth!"
Xiao Jianming said slowly, "If there is a chance, I would like to fight with him and take the opportunity to kill him!"
Xiao Shanhe said unhappily, "Before the Supreme Elder went into seclusion, he used the Energy Shifter Spell to purify your Spiritual Qi and laid a solid foundation for you. You will go further than me in the future, and you are destined to soar into the sky. Why do you have to put your mind on such a kid? Be more open-minded. After building your foundation, you will truly step into the cultivation world. That is when you will be able to compete with the heroes! "
Xiao Jianming was slightly startled, and slowly sighed, and said, "Yes, Uncle!"
Although he agreed, he couldn't help but feel some regret in his heart.
Only those who had been scolded by Fang Xing would understand how hateful this little demon was. His uncle only heard about the things that Fang Xing had done, so he couldn't understand the intense hatred and killing intent that Xiao Jianming had towards Fang Xing … …
This … … was simply a little bastard that could make people cry!
The VIP urged from behind. This time, the Blue Cloud Sect's martial arts drill was arranged very quickly. Very soon, the thirty-six names of the inner sanctum were determined. These thirty-six people included all the outstanding disciples of the four valleys and one hall of the Blue Cloud Sect. They would fight against each other and advance step by step. Finally, a champion would be chosen. There were also nine outstanding disciples, a total of ten people, who would be rewarded by the Taoist Faction.
Blue Cloud Sect, Hidden Cloud Peak, Little Thousand Rock. It was noon, and the sun was dazzling.
Under a cluster of old pine trees thirty feet away, a high platform had been set up. The VIP of Fuyao Palace was sitting in the middle, high and aloof. Below her were five old women led by Grandma Qian. On the left and right sides sat the Sect Master of the Blue Cloud Sect, Chen Xuanhua, and the Elders of the Duanzhen, Shanhe, Shuwen, and Xixia valleys respectively. Around the Little Thousand Rock, there were dozens of disciples sitting cross-legged.
"Hong Xianzhao versus Xiao Jianming!"
"Surrender!"
"Xian Yueming versus Xu Lingyun!"
"Surrender!"
"Ye Tianlong versus Fang Xing!"
"… Surrender!"
These three sentences were the most commonly heard voices.
There was no need to mention Xiao Jianming and Xu Lingyun. No disciple was bold enough to fight against them. Moreover, the rising star, Fang Xing, also had an unfathomable majesty. Most of the disciples who met him also chose to surrender. This was because there were already rumors in the sect that he had crippled Yu Jie, a disciple of the Celestial Worship Palace, made a big fuss in the Discipline Department, and chased after the Discipline Department Elders all over the mountain.
These disciples were either convinced or not convinced, but at least they didn't dare to take their own safety as a joke.
After all, Fang Xing also had a fierce reputation. If they really fought against him and were seriously injured by him, they wouldn't have the chance to continue competing.
Moreover, for the sake of fairness, each disciple had three chances to surrender. After surrendering, they could still fight with others to compete for the next quota. However, if they lost again on the Little Thousand Rock, they could only withdraw.
Because of this, the three of them actually didn't have a chance to fight even after the entire morning because their opponents had all surrendered.
It could be said that Xiao Jianming, Xu Lingyun, and Fang Xing were the publicly acknowledged top three disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect.
Of course, there were some people who didn't approve of it, such as the four disciples of the Celestial Worship Palace.
Other than Xiao Jianming, the Celestial Worship Palace had five other disciples. They were all elites chosen by their respective valleys and were proficient in battle techniques. Among the five, Yu Jie was ranked fourth. The Celestial Worship Palace's ranking was based on strength. Therefore, there were at least three people in the Celestial Worship Palace who were stronger than him. Among the three, one of them was from the Mountain Valley, so naturally, they were more hostile towards Fang Xing.
"Hua Qianye versus Xiao Jianming!"
"Surrender!"
"Hua Qianye versus Xu Lingyun!"
"… I … surrender!"
"Hua Qianye versus Fang Xing!"
"… I'm willing to fight!"
In the afternoon, another name was called three times. When it was Fang Xing's turn, he surprisingly chose to fight.
And the onlookers of the Blue Cloud Sect disciples and the four great elders in the stands, their eyes flashed.
This was because Hua Qianye was the second disciple of the Celestial Worship Palace after Xiao Jianming. Before the appearance of Fang Xing, he was publicly acknowledged as the third expert in the sect.
