Walking back from the school, Li Ling'er complained, "It's so unfair. It's okay to meet most of the students, but if I meet the top ten students, I'm afraid I'll be eliminated in the first round."
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Don't worry. It doesn't matter even if I don't use weapons."
Brother Xiao Jun, don't blame me for telling you the truth. If you can't use your weapon, even I may not lose to you. Although you are in a higher realm than me, I have a sword in my hand. Normally, a good sword can help a person to improve his fighting capacity. If you are in the middle stage of Gang-strength, it is not difficult for me to tie with you. "Xiao Jun's face was solemn as he said," Brother Xiao Jun, don't blame me.
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Even if it's a tie, it's not a big deal."
Chu Bei sighed and said, "It's not a big deal. I also have a chance to be ranked at the top. I guess my strength should be above average among the freshmen. Li Ling'er is almost the same. But you are so strong, so you have a greater chance to be ranked at the top. Unfortunately, it's gone now."
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Well, let's not think about it. Now we all passed, which is a happy thing. If we can get a good ranking tomorrow, we must find a place to celebrate. Oh, by the way, speaking of weapons, is there a better place to sell weapons here? "
"Selling weapons?" Chu Bei also spoke without hesitation, "There is, the True Artefact Pavilion is the highest grade weapon shop in our True Martial City, it is filled with Brilliant Artefact grade weapons, I bought my Treasure Sword from there."
Xiao Bing asked, "Is there no spiritual weapon?"
"I heard that there are a few spiritual weapons, but the price must be very high. And only VIPs who pay a large deposit are qualified to see them."
Xiao Bing nodded and said, "Let's go. Take me to have a look first."
Since he couldn't bring weapons to the competition, why did he still think about weapons? Chu Bei glanced at Xiao Bing and didn't ask much. He agreed and said, "Then let's go to the Zhen Qi Pavilion first. I also want to go there."
"Well, I also want to!" Li Ling'er said, "Although I also have a sword in my hand and don't need a weapon."
The reason why Xiao Bing wanted to visit this weapon shop was mainly to see the quality of the weapons. He planned to buy some when he returned to the human world. But ordinary Precious Weapons were definitely not enough. At the very least, he needed to bring a spiritual weapon. On the one hand, it was not necessary to use a Precious Weapon. His Xiao Mansion already had a lot of Spiritual Weapons. Naturally, he would not be interested in ordinary Precious Weapons. On the other hand, the tearing force when crossing the bounded domain was too horrible. Even an ordinary Precious Weapon could easily be destroyed when crossing the space.
Xiao Bing followed Li Ling'er and Chu Bei to the Zhen Qi Pavilion. The Zhen Qi Pavilion looked extraordinary. After entering the shop, a shop assistant with obvious strength took the initiative to greet the three of them. Xiao Bing said that he was just going to walk around and sent the assistant away. Then he walked around the shop. Chu Bei and Li Ling'er didn't stay idle either.
Xiao Bing was amazed as he strolled around the shop. This shop was really big. There were at least a hundred Bejeweled Instruments here. Although Bejeweled Instruments were not rare in the outside world, it was not easy to find one. Of course, Spiritual Instruments were even more difficult to find. Although Xiao Bing had some Spiritual Instruments now, some of them were obtained from the Tianshan Elder. The Tianshan Elder was a legendary sage! Some of them were extorted from Kunlun. Kunlun was a super sect with a history of nearly a thousand years. Some of them were plundered by Xiao Bing from the Devil Race. Needless to say, the Devil Race's heritage was far beyond that of the Tianshan Elder and Kunlun.
Therefore, in the human world, every spiritual weapon had a powerful background. After Xiao Bing finished looking at the treasures, he called the assistant and asked, "How much do I need as a deposit if I want to buy the spiritual weapons here?"
The assistant introduced enthusiastically, "We have more than ten spiritual weapons here. Each of them is extremely powerful and they were made by the top spiritual weapon masters. So the price is naturally a little higher. If you want to take a look at the spiritual weapons, you need to pay five million coins as a deposit. Of course, if you don't want to buy it in the end, we can return it to you. The reason why you need to pay a deposit is to prove that you have the ability to buy it."
Xiao Bing nodded, indicating that he understood.
The assistant asked enthusiastically, "Do you want to take a look, sir?"
Xiao Bing said, "I'm just asking around. I'm not going to take a look today."
"Oh." The shop assistant's enthusiasm faded a little.
Xiao Bing said, "That's fine. You can go back to work. I'll come here another day."
"Well, you're welcome to come again when you have time."
Xiao Bing asked Chu Bei and Li Ling'er to leave together. Chu Bei asked, "Is there anything you like? However, the Prized artefacts here are quite expensive. "
Xiao Bing said, "Not bad."
According to the money Xiao Bing had now, it was enough to buy a treasured weapon. But Xiao Bing was not interested in those treasures. It seemed that he still needed to make more money. But his current strength was too weak. It was too difficult for him to rely on hunting to earn spiritual weapons. For example, if he encountered two monsters in the middle stage of Gang-strength or the peak of Gang-strength at the same time in the forest, Xiao Bing could not guarantee that he would be safe.
He still needed to improve his strength. If he had strength, everything would be easy. If he did not have strength, nothing would work.
After Xiao Bing and the other two finished eating, they returned to their residence. It was too late and they had to go to the freshman competition tomorrow. Even if they wanted to earn money, they were not in a hurry. Xiao Bing and Soul-Chasing Stick chatted casually and then went to sleep. While chatting, Soul-Chasing Stick secretly despised Xiao Bing's vision. A mere spiritual weapon was enough to make Xiao Bing want it. He mocked Xiao Bing for being too useless, but Xiao Bing did not care at all.
The next day, Xiao Bing and the others came to the school. They could directly enter with the badge. At this time, there were already many people on the campus. They were all standing on the playground. Among the students, there were several who had reached the peak of Gang-strength. Two of them were Zhou Jian and Wang Qing, whom Xiao Bing had met before.
After looking around, Xiao Bing also found an old acquaintance, Zhang Xinxin. Li Ling'er immediately ran to Zhang Xinxin. She grabbed Zhang Xinxin's arm and chattered. Zhang Xinxin had a faint smile on her face.
Chu Bei and Xiao Bing also walked over. There was a trace of surprise on Chu Bei's face. He asked incredulously, "Xinxin, your strength has actually broken through?"
At this time, Li Ling'er also found that Zhang Xinxin's breath was completely different. Then she said with a face full of surprise, "Really? Xinxin, you have broken through? That's great! Then this time you might have a chance to rush to the top ten! "
Zhang Xinxin nodded with a smile and said, "It's just a fluke."
Chu Bei could not help but say with emotion, "Xinxin, you seem to be 18 years old, right? An 18-year-old at the middle stage of Gang-strength. Although there is still no way to compare with those super geniuses, you will definitely be the focus of the teacher in the future. "
At this time, when some of the students around looked at Zhang Xinxin, they could not help but show a bit of awe in their eyes. The lowest standard of strength for a freshman was the Elixir-strength Stage. Generally speaking, if one could reach the Gang-strength Stage, it was already above average. Zhang Xinxin had actually broken through to the middle stage of Gang-strength Stage. Although it was only one level away from the early stage of Gang-strength Stage, she had definitely stepped into the tail of the top students. She was only second to the few super geniuses among the freshmen who had reached the peak of Gang-strength Stage. She could even barely enter the top ten!
At this time, the teachers in charge of the assessment came. One of them was the examiner who had conducted the assessment yesterday. The strength of the examiner yesterday had reached the middle stage of Void-breaking. In the human world, he was definitely a first-class master. But today, the strength of the other examiner was even more powerful. He had reached the early stage of Heavenly Master. With this kind of strength, even in the ancient martial arts sects, he could be regarded as an elder.
When they saw the examiner who was at the Heavenly Master level, everyone's eyes showed awe. Even the top geniuses among the freshmen were full of awe.
At this time, Xiao Bing heard the crowd whispering, "Do you see him? This is Teacher Zhao Qingjue, the head teacher of the first grade. The one next to him is our assistant. I think his name is Li Zhonghua."
"Amazing. The strength of the assistant seems to be so unfathomable. This head teacher must be even more amazing."
"Didn't you see the staff card hanging on his chest? It's written on it."
"I saw it. Middle-stage Divine Master. So powerful!!"
"Sigh, if I can reach the Divine Master Realm one day, then I won't have to worry about food and drink in the future. I'll be respected wherever I go."
"Haha, just think about it. Do you think the Divine Master Realm is something that anyone can reach? If it's one of the top ten geniuses of this year, he might be able to reach it in the future. "
"Sigh, you're right. The Divine Master Realm requires a lot of talent."
"But don't be too discouraged. Since we were able to enter Tongtian Academy, it has already proved that our talent is outstanding among the young. Anything is possible. It's just that the probability is much lower than the geniuses who are ranked at the top."
"Yes, you're right. Since we have talent, we must always maintain a positive attitude. Anything is possible in the future."
Xiao Bing nodded in his heart. These young students were considered first-class in both talent and temperament. No wonder there were so many masters in the Divine Clan.
The head teacher, Zhao Qingjue, stood in front of the students with his hands behind his back. He didn't need to release his aura. His aura alone was enough to make all the students hold their breaths. For a moment, everyone was silent.
Zhao Qingjue said, "Next, we'll draw lots to determine the number of students. This year's enrollment is the highest among all the years. There are 162 students in total. After the competition, you will be divided into classes. I will be the head teacher of some of the students. Let's start drawing lots now. The first eighty-one students have the right to choose. The last eighty-one students have the right to choose. But once the chosen one eliminates the higher ranked student, he can change his number and win the right to choose."
The rules were simple. Everyone understood it.
At this time, the assistant walked to Zhao Qingjue with a box. Zhao Qingjue said, "Starting from the first student on the left, from left to right. After the first row is the second row. Draw lots one by one!"
Suddenly, everyone became nervous. Drawing lots could very well decide how far they could go.
