The disciples of the Solitary Law Sect knew very well that it would be very difficult to regain victory after losing a single move against an opponent of similar strength.
Moreover, he had suffered internal injuries. There was no need for him to continue fighting. Hence, he reluctantly admitted defeat and walked off the square. Luo Ping had successfully obtained a chance.
Other than the opportunity to cultivate in the Purple Sun Palace, there was also a Grade 6 Divine Transformation Pill. This time, Luo Ping could be said to have gained a lot.
Seeing that Luo Ping had actually won, Duan Jinchen felt as if he had just woken up from a dream. He still found it hard to accept this fact. Even Hua Ruyu and the others felt that it was too surreal.
A small Foundation Establishment disciple had actually grown so quickly. In just a hundred years, not only had he become a Nascent Soul cultivator, but he had also entered the top three in the sect's grand competition.
If they hadn't witnessed Luo Ping's growth with their own eyes, they definitely wouldn't have believed it. Even now, they still couldn't calm down.
Not long after Luo Ping's battle ended, the other two also had their results. The Heartless Sword Sect's disciple was better. He defeated the Scarlet Cloud Religion's disciple and also qualified.
In the end, it was the two defeated disciples and the disciple who had a bye. The three of them fought for the last spot. However, Luo Ping was no longer interested in this and returned to Duan Jinchen's side.
Seeing Luo Ping's figure walking over, Hua Tao, Li Mu, and the others all had strange expressions. They could no longer treat Luo Ping as just a junior brother like before.
In their eyes, Luo Ping was already an existence that was hard to beat. He was already the goal that they worked towards, the role model that they pursued. They hoped that one day, they could be as invincible as Luo Ping and look down on the world.
"Luo Ping, if your master knew about your performance today, he would definitely be proud of you."
Duan Jinchen smiled when he saw Luo Ping walk over.
"Sigh, I don't even know where Master went. It's been more than a hundred years, and he still hasn't come back. There's not even any news. Really."
Luo Ping grumbled. Ever since Xiao Yan had left, he had not returned to the sect. Who knew where he had gone?
"He's used to being free. He was like that in the past. He didn't return to the sect all day, but his cultivation improved very quickly. This is enough to show that he's a cultivation genius."
"Who would have thought that the disciple he accepted would actually be even more heaven-defying than him. It seems that Junior Brother Xiao's vision is still very brilliant."
Duan Jinchen said with a chuckle. His attitude surprised Hua Tao and the others. Hua Ruyu and the others were also surprised. After all, as a sect leader, he had his own dignity. He would not talk to his disciples in such a manner.
However, they also understood that this was enough to show how much Duan Jinchen liked and valued Luo Ping.
At this time, Hua Ruyu, Zhong Yi, Jing Fei, and the others also congratulated Luo Ping. Facing these seniors, Luo Ping politely responded with thanks.
Next, Hua Tao and the others, and even the disciples of the Stroll Planting sect, Beast Taming Mountain, and Rainbow Light Sect, all asked Luo Ping how he cultivated. They wanted to learn from him.
This stumped Luo Ping. He couldn't tell them the truth. After all, there were too many secrets. So, he could only give a simple answer.
"I'm just cultivating normally. Maybe I'm just lucky."
Cultivated normally? Who would believe that? But since Luo Ping didn't say anything, the others didn't continue asking. After chatting for a while, Daoist Ziji's voice sounded out from the square.
"Everyone, the competition has ended. Congratulations to the top three disciples. They will have the opportunity to enter the main hall to cultivate, and will also receive a Divine Transformation Pill.
"These three are Wu Ya, a disciple of the Heartless Sword Sect; Tong Zhen, a disciple of the Thunder Rumbling Sect; and Luo Ping, a disciple of the Kongming Sect.
"As for the remaining disciples, they will also be rewarded according to their rankings. Like before, all sects can return to their own sects after staying in the main hall for one day."
After Daoist Ziji finished his announcement, he left the square with the elder beside him. All the sect masters and sect masters returned to their own residences.
The disciples who had received their rewards stayed behind to receive their corresponding rewards. Luo Ping, like everyone else, walked up to the elders of the Purple Sun Hall.
These elders were in charge of distributing the rewards. After Luo Ping received the Divine Transformation Elixir, he put it away and waited for these elders to arrange the rest of the matters.
By the time all the rewards had been distributed, the other disciples had already left. Only Luo Ping and two others were left standing in front of the elders.
"You can go back first. After all the sects leave tomorrow, you can go to the main hall to cultivate."
One of the elders said before turning to leave with the other elders. When Luo Ping saw this, he turned to return to his residence.
"Kid, you have some skills. You killed my junior brother. I will definitely avenge him."
A gloomy voice came from behind him. It was Wu Ya, a disciple of the Heartless Sword Sect. He already held a grudge against Luo Ping for killing his junior brother.
"Doesn't the Heartless Sword Sect emphasize on being heartless? You look like you haven't cultivated well. You'd better concentrate on your cultivation. "
Luo Ping didn't even turn his head as he said this and continued to leave.
"You …"
Wu Ya was furious. He wanted to say something but was stopped by Tong Zhen beside him.
"Brother Wu Ya, why are you in such a hurry? When the cultivation is over and we leave the Purple Sun Palace, there will only be the three of us. Won't it be easy to kill him?"
A sinister smile appeared on Tong Zhen's face. When Wu Ya heard this, he immediately understood and also revealed a sinister smile.
The next day.
All the third-rate sects had left one after another. The only reason the Purple Sun Palace kept them for the night was to make them pay the spirit stones.
Every time the Sect Tournament was held, it was also the day that all the third-grade sects had to pay the Spirit Stones. Only the top three sects were exempted from paying the Spirit Stones.
"Luo Ping, for the next half a year, you will cultivate well in the Purple Sun Palace. Martial Uncle hopes that you can improve again."
Before Duan Jinchen left, he warned Luo Ping again. Although he only had half a year to cultivate, he believed that Luo Ping would definitely gain something.
"Understood, Martial Uncle Sect Leader!"
After Luo Ping finished speaking, he bid farewell to the crowd and walked behind an elder of the Purple Sun Palace. At the same time, Wu Ya and Tong Zhen also walked over.
This elder was the one who would lead them to the cultivation area. Luo Ping and the other two followed the elder and directly flew in a certain direction. With the elder leading the way, they didn't encounter any obstacles while flying.
After flying over a few palaces, they landed on top of a very ordinary-looking mountain peak. The elder brought them down.
"This is the important cultivation ground of the Purple Sun Palace. It looks ordinary, but in reality, the space inside is different. It is indeed your fortune to be able to obtain this opportunity."
The elder looked at Luo Ping and the other two and said. Seeing that they had been sizing up the mountain peak in front of them, the elder continued to walk forward and said, "Even the disciples of the Purple Sun Palace can't easily enter here to cultivate. Only genius disciples with good aptitude can have this opportunity."
"The reason why the Sect Tournament chose the outstanding disciples of each sect to cultivate here is to increase the overall strength of each sect. After all, each sect is under the jurisdiction of the Purple Sun Palace. The Purple Sun Palace also has to think for each sect."
"Facts have proven that every time the disciples of each sect enter here to cultivate, their cultivation will increase faster and their strength will become stronger. I believe that you are the same and will definitely become stronger in the future."
Luo Ping naturally didn't believe the elder's words completely. What thinking for each sect, in the end, wasn't it for the Purple Sun Palace's own position?
If the overall strength of each sect under the jurisdiction of the Purple Sun Palace wasn't good enough, it was very likely that they would be swallowed up by other second-rate sects or even obliterated by the first-rate sects above.
After all, what was the use of having worthless subordinates? The first-rate sect above, the True Yang Palace, could choose another sect to replace the Purple Sun Palace's position.
Therefore, the Purple Sun Palace's Sect Tournament was in fact to protect their sect's position. This point, everyone had a tacit understanding.
The elder brought Luo Ping and the other two to the entrance of a cave on the mountain peak and stopped. Then, he took out a semicircular jade pendant.
The semicircular jade pendant automatically flew out of the elder's palm and flew to the entrance of the cave. A layer of purple light barrier appeared in front of the cave entrance. It continued to extend endlessly and sealed the entire cave.
The semicircular jade pendant just happened to stick to the light barrier. Then, like an earthworm, it kept drilling on the surface of the purple light barrier. Every time it stopped, a purple light spot would appear at this position.
The semicircular jade pendant stopped a total of three hundred and sixty-five times before it finally stopped at the last position, and above the purple light barrier.
Three hundred and sixty-five purple light spots also appeared.
These three hundred and sixty-five purple light spots didn't seem to have any connection with each other. In fact, they were all array points of an array.
Luo Ping looked at the scene in front of him and was rather shocked. This was because the array in front of him was actually a seventh-level array. Moreover, it was recorded in his Astral Steps Battle Diagram.
This seventh-level array had extremely strong defensive power. Moreover, the method of setting it up was very special. It required the help of a treasure as an array device.
In terms of attack, this array perfectly combined a trap array, an illusion array, a killing array and other arrays. It was estimated that even if an expert of the Longevity Stage accidentally entered, it would be very difficult for him to successfully leave.
"Alright, you can go in and cultivate. You have half a year. At that time, you will be automatically sent out."
The elder looked at Luo Ping and the other two and urged them.
Hearing this, Luo Ping walked into the cave without hesitation. Wu Ya and Tong Zhen were not willing to fall behind and immediately followed.
The elder stretched out his hand and the semicircular jade pendant on the purple light barrier returned to his hand. After keeping the jade pendant, he glanced at the cave that was once again sealed by the array before leaving.
