It was a silent night. Guang Bei did not say anything, and Lou Xiaoyi acted as if nothing had happened. However, the other two were under a lot of pressure.
Yan Bo was reminding him not to fail miserably, while Yan Cheng was encouraging him to show everyone that women were not as good as men!
Their cultivation levels were much higher than Lou Xiaoyi's. This was given to them by time and could not be forced. However, their mentality was completely different from the other two.
Some people would be very agitated, some would be very nervous, and some would be very worried. In short, there would be a certain degree of emotional fluctuation. However, there would also be a small number of people who would act as if nothing had happened … They wouldn't think too much. They wouldn't cheer themselves up, and they wouldn't worry needlessly. You could say that they were slow-witted, but you could also say that this was a rare temperament.
It was hard to say which was better or worse. It was closely related to one's habits.
The Swordsman were whispering, and so were the Dharma cultivators.
Daka looked at everyone with a serious expression. "How many years has it been since Wushang won in a competition similar to Xuanyuan's?
I hope that there will be a miracle this time, and not continue to write the history of failure!
Otherwise, we will be overestimating ourselves if we use this method to decide the ownership of the Mountain Kui Tribe. People will say that Wushang did not learn from his mistakes. He knew that there was a difference in individual combat strength, but he still charged forward recklessly! "
Looking at the silent crowd, Daka analyzed, "We are doing this to gain an advantage in the selection of the Mountain Kui Tribe. We will defeat them in the battle that Xuanyuan is best at, and let them see that we have the ability to protect them. Furthermore, we have our advantages, and they have their shortcomings!
Their shortcomings are that they have two Swordsman Outer Swordsman! And they are new to the Foundation Establishment! If all four of them are Inner Swordsman, the competition will be meaningless. After all, we are only one of the dozens of small teams that entered the Wolf Ridge. Not all of us are elites!
Their combat strength actually lies in the two Inner Swordsman, especially their leader, Guang Bei. His nickname is Northern Light, and he is in the top 100 of the five-ring Foundation Establishment List! I have to admit that the Swordsman's strength has never been underestimated. There's no one in our party who can go against him! "
The ranking list was not a tradition of the cultivation world. For cultivators, the true essence of cultivation was to focus on oneself and ignore fame and fortune. What was the use of fighting for first or second place in vain? If he couldn't ascend to the next realm, the so-called glory would be nothing more than a cup of yellow soil!
However, there would always be bored people in this world. It was fine if they didn't have the ability but they were bored. If those who had great ability were also bored, then they might come up with some strange things.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the most amazing cultivator in the history of the Fifth Ring brought his friend from the distant Azure Sky to the Fifth Ring. However, his friend didn't have the same ability as him. He had to survive in the Fifth Ring and couldn't always rely on his connections. He had to find a foothold in the Fifth Ring!
His friend's orthodoxy was very sloppy. He started off by playing the zither. This type of orthodoxy was very powerful before the Yuanying era. However, after the Yuanying era, his orthodoxy declined and he lacked the strength to continue. Therefore, he needed a new direction!
This friend of his was a smart one. He had once heard from that amazing person that there was no ranking list in such a big cultivation world. This was not in line with the human nature of comparison. Even if one pretended to be aloof on the outside and didn't care, if you put him on the ranking list, he would still be happy.
He took advantage of this point and started to do sponsored partnerships with the ranking list!
Tens of thousands of years had passed. This orthodoxy that started off by playing the zither was long gone. No one knew if it had really gone extinct or if it had merged with other orthodoxies. However, this wasn't important. What was important was that the ranking list, which completely went against the traditions of cultivation, had survived. Furthermore, its scale of development was getting bigger and bigger, and its scope of influence was getting wider and wider. It involved all aspects of cultivation, whether it was fighting, strength, alchemy, weapon manufacturing, talisman drawing …
Now, if you didn't have a place on the ranking list, you would be embarrassed to go out and say that you were a celebrity!
It was very unexpected that such a thing could develop to this extent. However, since it existed, there must be a reason. The ranking list could satisfy the human vanity, arrogance, comparison, showing off, and countless other negative emotions. Naturally, it had a wide range of living conditions and was getting more and more prosperous!
A long life, a boring life, a lonely soul, an empty ideal, and a surging spirit of gossip. In the end, this career was pushed higher and higher. Now, it had become the most important aspect to measure a cultivator's ability. Even the major sects had no choice but to take it seriously. It had become an important aspect to judge.
Of course, this kind of thing couldn't be done accurately. There were always those who were really low-key, unknown, underestimated, and highly judged. However, it didn't matter. With the ranking list, the cultivation world was full of vitality. Young cultivators were proud of being on the ranking list, and it was also a big motivation for them to challenge themselves. This was something that the sects were happy to see.
However, it didn't affect anything. When one's cultivation level increased and their state of mind reached a certain level, they would naturally become indifferent to it.
Xuanyuan's Guang Bei was on the ranking list, but the six of them weren't. This was the basis for judging their ability.
"But he's only one person! His use in the arena is limited! "
Daka was very clear-headed. "The order of appearance is determined by age. Then, Junior Brother Wang and I should fight him. What they don't know is that among us, I'm not good at fighting!
Therefore, Junior Brother Wang and I are destined to lose these two matches. The key is that we have to lose happily! We can't leave our lives here! We have to increase their bargaining chips! "
Daka pointed at the other two junior brothers. "The two of you are the strongest in our group. You always boast that you have the ability to enter the ranking list. Then, the second and third matches will be the time for you to prove yourselves!
If you win, we will be in an advantageous position in the competition for the Mountain Kui Clan. It will also increase your individual ranking. This is where our chances of victory lie!
As for the last external sword cultivator, I don't need to say it, right? If you can't even take down an external sword cultivator who has been in Foundation Establishment for more than ten years after cultivating for more than a hundred years, then you won't have the qualifications to compete for supremacy in the Five Rings. It's too embarrassing! "
Daka was in high spirits. "In the three external sword matches, we have the confidence to win! Therefore, a draw is the minimum! However, we have to be careful not to get killed in the match. Don't pretend to be tough guys! If you can't do it, then admit defeat and leave it to others!
I will discuss with the Mountain Kui Clan Leader about the criteria for determining victory and defeat. He will agree. Believe me, he also doesn't want any disciple from a large sect to die in his territory! "
This was an almost perfect battle situation. Daka didn't think that they would lose. This didn't conform to the rules of cultivation!
