Chapter 250 The bet between the deans
“Is this guy still a dual-attribute sword cultivator?”
At the judges’ table, dean Qi saw Zhou Ling defeating his Taoist disciples so easily , the expression that had always been calm and calm couldn't help but stagnate.
You know, He Rui is ranked among the top five disciples in the inner courtyard.
Can't stop Zhou Ling's sword.
Moreover, Zhou Ling was only in the early stages of foundation building.
"Dean Qi doesn't know, but Zhou Ling is a heavenly foundation builder!"
Dean Zhong said with a smile.
Even he was a little surprised by Zhou Ling's display of combat power.
This is an improvement by more than one level compared to last year's internal comparison in the Taoist Academy.
But being able to defeat this top-ranked disciple of Tianxia Taoist Academy so easily was really shocking.
In his opinion, even if Zhou Ling can win, it will still take a hard fight.
"Tianpin foundation building, I know, but this combat power is really not easy!"
Dean Qi squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Zhou Ling with doubts.
Dean Huang also looked at Zhou Ling in surprise.
Originally, they all thought that facing Xuanyuan Taoist Academy would be the best way to deal with it and they would have a greater chance of winning.
I didn’t expect that Zhou Ling, the person with the lowest cultivation level in Xuanyuan Taoist Academy, would show such amazing combat power.
With just one sword strike, the opponent was rendered helpless.
"It seems that I have found the right person when I asked him to refine my sword!"
Dean Gong also said with a smile.
"Dean Gong, you are already in the late stage of Jindan cultivation, why do you want to find this little guy to refine your sword?"
Dean Zhong asked curiously.
Although Zhou Ling has been able to refine a third-level sword.
But obviously there is still a certain gap between the sword that the Palace Chief wants.
After all, although Dean Gong is in the late stage of Jindan, he has already understood the three realms of swordsmanship.
It has reached the point where man and sword merge into one, so his combat power is no less than that of early Yuanying monks.
The generally used swords are also fourth-level swords.
"Hey, I can't explain this matter for a while."
Dean Gong said with a smile.
Hearing this, Dean Zhong was curious, but he was too embarrassed to inquire further.
"Zhou Ling is so powerful, but he is only ranked thirteenth. This is obviously underestimated!"
"I don't think there will be any problems in entering the semi-finals!"
Director Gong Then he shifted the topic to Zhou Ling.
"I don't think it's that easy. In the next round, his opponent is Li Jun from Tianxia Taoist Academy."
"Li Jun is at the pinnacle of foundation building, and he will be ranked in this assessment Fourth, it is both a rune master and an array master.”
"Even if the top three disciples meet her, they are not sure of victory!"
Dean Huang looked at the information and smiled.
“It’s actually Li Jun, that’s really surprising!”
Hearing this, Dean Gong nodded and agreed with this.
Li Jun is also well-known in Qingyun Fairy City. In his early twenties, he is already a second-level top rune master and formation master.
The talent is amazing.
And she is from the Li family of Qingyun Fairy City. She is the sister of the talented young man Li Yu who was in the same class as Zhou Ling and was always suppressed by him.
"On the contrary, I think Zhou Ling may have a better chance of winning against Li Jun."
Dean Zhong took a sip of tea and smiled.
It seems that Zhou Ling is very confident.
Now he is naturally convinced of Zhou Ling's technical strength.
I feel that if Zhou Ling enters the golden elixir, he may be able to refine fourth-level treasures.
As for actual combat, although he didn't know much about it, Zhou Ling didn't seem to have a high level of cultivation.
But the boy asked about the leader’s reward on the way.
I haven’t paid much attention to it yet.
Now it seems that he really came here for the leader reward.
The other three people couldn't help but look at each other, knowing that Dean Zhong was usually a low-key and calm person.
Why are you so boastful?
"Although Zhou Ling is good at swordsmanship, in the battle just now, two swords happened to suppress He Rui."
"But meeting this Li Jun is different. With Li Jun She has a set of flying dragon sword talismans in her hand, which is enough to ensure that she enters the top four, and even wins the top spot in the end.”
Dean Gong seemed to know Li Jun very well and said slowly.
Basically speaking, with Li Jun’s strength, among the thirty-two disciples participating in this competition.
That is the ability to definitely enter the top four.
Proper first echelon.
“In fact, Zhou Ling will not only be able to defeat Li Jun this time, he will even become the leader!”
But Dean Zhong said something that made the other three deans stunned.
Looking at Dean Zhong, they all looked disbelieving.
Even though Zhou Ling had already shown considerable strength in the previous battle.
But none of the opponents behind them are fuel-efficient.
And Zhou Ling is only in the early stages of foundation building.
In the next game, if you encounter an opponent like Li Jun, your mana will probably be exhausted.
They really couldn’t figure out how Zhou Ling could defeat Li Jun?
Moreover, in addition to Li Jun, there are also Wan Kun, Qin Hao, Zhao Jie, etc., but they are all geniuses among geniuses.
The peak level of foundation building cultivation has a special physique.
Already has the strength to challenge Jin Dan.
Wan Kun has fused the essence and blood of the Thunder Ape since he was a child, and condensed the acquired Thunder Ape combat body.
Qin Hao is the body of an innate fierce sword.
Zhao Jie is the Huogang spirit body.
These three people can be said to be the most powerful disciples in Qingyun Immortal City in the past ten years.
The top three this year will definitely be the three of them, the only variable is Li Jun.
In last year's Tianxia Taoist Competition, Li Jun only lost to Zhao Jie at the last minute.
The strength is considered to be between equals.
"Dean Zhong, you have to know that it has been almost fifty years, and your Xuanyuan Taoist Academy has never won the championship."
"Do you think Zhou Ling is just a builder? Is it possible to become the leader with an early level of cultivation?"
Dean Huang said with a slightly amused tone.
Of course, he didn't mean to look down on Zhou Ling.
With Zhou Ling's age and cultivation, he will definitely have a place in Qingyun Immortal City in the future.
Don't talk about the future, even now, as the deputy chief of the Tiangong Department, he is already considered the number one figure.
"Dean Huang, how about we make a bet?"
Dean Zhong smiled.
This kid Zhou Ling must have some tricks up his sleeve.
"Bet?"
Hearing this, Dean Huang frowned, then smiled and said, "Unexpectedly, Dean Zhong is so elegant, so of course I will accompany him."
“I just don’t know what to bet on?”
Although Zhou Ling is not weak, it is absolutely impossible to win the championship from his perspective.
"If Zhou Ling can win the first prize, the fourth-level Requiem Bead in my hand will be yours!"
Dean Zhong took out a black bead and said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll bet on this fourth-level thunderwood!"
Dean Huang laughed, took out a piece of thunderwood, and said with a smile.
In his opinion, Dean Zhong made it clear that he wanted to give this Requiem Pearl to him.
"Two deans, are you interested?"
Dean Zhong smiled and said to the other two people.
“It’s a small gamble to make me happy, so I’ll take a gamble with Dean Zhong.”
Dean Qi nodded and took out a black sword.
Dean Zhong took out a bottle of fourth-level elixir.
As for Dean Gong, he frowned but showed no interest. He seemed quite curious about Dean Zhong's trust in Zhou Ling.
The three of them paid more attention to Zhou Ling now.
After Zhou Ling defeated his opponent, he returned to the rest area, took out a pill, threw it into his mouth, and began to refine and absorb the potion to restore his cultivation.
Although I just used one sword, it consumed a lot of energy.
So we still have to buy time and recover as soon as possible.
However, the next competition will start in half an hour, which is enough time.
The other four disciples of Xuanyuan Taoist Academy who had not yet entered the stage were surprised to see Zhou Lingsheng so relaxed.
Especially Xi Mo and Cang Zhi.
In the Taoist competition last year, they failed to fight Zhou Ling head-on due to excessive consumption.
Finally ranked second or third.
I feel quite sorry.
But look at Zhou Ling’s sword just now.
They realized that even if they met Zhou Ling, they had no chance of winning.
I also have a clearer understanding of Zhou Ling's combat power.
"Brother Ling, your opponent in the next round is her, Li Jun!"
"The rune master and the array master just used the cooperation of three second-level runes to easily defeat their opponent!"
After a while, Sun Dajie came to Zhou Ling's side and reported to him the situation he had learned from, his expression a little solemn.
In the battle just now, Li Jun also showed the ability to crush his opponent, and his opponent was a late-stage foundation-building monk.
This fighting power is extremely scary.
I was also worried about Zhou Ling in my heart.
"It doesn't matter. When the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover it with earth!"
Zhou Ling smiled and said.
Li Jun, one of the two top foundation builders of Tianxia Taoist Academy, met like this.
However, if you want to win the competition, you will have to meet it sooner or later.
"In addition, Li Jun is Li Yu's biological sister."
Sun Dajie told Zhou Ling again.
“Oh!”
Hearing this, Zhou Ling was a little surprised.
This big family is indeed full of talented people.
With a talent like Li Yu's, there is a high probability of becoming a fourth-grade weapon refiner in the future.
His sister's talent is even higher than that of Li Yu.
But considering that the Li family is a family that has produced cultivators of god transformation, it is not surprising that the Li Yu siblings are so outstanding.
Then, Sun Dajie continued to introduce Li Jun's situation to Zhou Ling.
As a guest of the Zhou family, his main task now is to inquire about information.
And in this regard, he is absolutely expert.
I found out clearly the number of times Li Yun took action in the past three years and the runes he used each time.
“The most powerful thing this woman has in her hand right now is a flying dragon sword talisman formation. The construction team is powerful enough to deal with the Golden Core cultivator.”
“The flying dragon sword talisman formation refined last year, He was only a second-level top-level player, but was finally defeated by Zhao Jie, who had an earth-level spiritual root and a fire-gang spiritual body.”
······.
Zhou Ling was not careless and listened carefully.
·······.
An hour later, the second round of competition began.
Zhou Ling stood on the competition stage and saluted the tall woman in yellow who looked somewhat similar to Li Yu.
"My brother seems to have always wanted to defeat you, but now that you are a heavenly guard, the chances of him catching up with you in the future are probably very small."
Li Jun also returned the favor to Zhou Ling and said with a smile.
“In the process of cultivation, some people have accumulated a lot of knowledge, and some people have instant enlightenment. It’s hard to say who will have a high level of cultivation in the future and who will have a low level of cultivation!”
Zhou Ling smiled and said .
"You are indeed a knowledgeable person!"
"Well, how about you just admit defeat and I will draw ten runes for you later?"
Li Jun smiled to Zhou Ling again.
Then without waiting for Zhou Ling to answer, he said directly, "If you just admit defeat, Li Yu will not obey me obediently in the future!"
Hearing this, Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment. Some people don't understand what the opponent's logic is.
Why should I admit defeat?
For ten runes?
You must know that this competition is the leader, but the reward is a treasure like jade repaying gold elixir. How can it be compared with ten runes?
And what happens between you siblings is none of my business!
“If you admit defeat, I will refine ten swords for you later!”
Zhou Ling smiled.
This reward is a golden elixir. No matter how strong the opponent is, he will never give up.
Although it is only the third level of foundation building and is still far away from forming the elixir, as long as the elixir is properly preserved, there will be no problem if it is stored for more than ten years.
"Do you think you can beat me in the early stage of foundation building?"
Hearing his words, Li Jun couldn't help but look surprised, as if he was trying not to laugh.
“Absolutely!”
Zhou Ling said modestly.
Li Jun's eyes widened when he heard this. He really couldn't figure out where this kid got his confidence. He shook his head and said, "You can actually become a heavenly guard. It seems that there must be something extraordinary about you."
"Then let me see your strength!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a yellow rune was played in his hand.
"Boom!"
With the bang, thunder exploded.
Purple thunderbolts were like thunder dragons, bombarding towards Zhou Ling.
Looking from below the competition platform, the entire competition platform is filled with purple thunder and lightning.
Violent thunder and lightning enveloped Zhou Ling.
As thunder struck down.
In Zhou Ling's hand, a flaming sword light rose into the sky.
The Fire Cloud Sword slashed at the thunderous light, and the huge Fire Cloud Sword Qi roared out.
Sweeping through, the thunder in the sky was instantly annihilated.
The thunder that shone above the competition stage was all defeated by Zhou Ling's sword.
"There are only a few, but I want to see how many swords you can use in the early stage of foundation building?"
Li Jun raised the corner of his mouth, sneered, and waved three more yellow runes in his hand. Hit out.
Boom!
Three rays of pure purple light condensed and turned into a purple thunder dragon that shook the entire competition stage. With the tap of Li Jun's finger, it bombarded towards Zhou Ling.
Obviously, she wanted to use the runes to directly consume Zhou Ling to death.
“Three second-level top-grade thunder dragon runes, Senior Sister Li thinks too highly of him!”
“That is, a person in the early stage of foundation building, no matter how strong he is, cannot fail one after another. "Thunder Dragon Rune"
"It is said that Senior Sister Li's younger brother has some grudge against this person in Xuanyuan Taoist Academy. I am afraid that Senior Sister Li intends to teach him a lesson!"
"That's it!"
"Such a powerful thunder The dragon rune, I will give in immediately!”
“He is proud to be defeated by Senior Sister Li’s thunder dragon rune!”
In the audience, Tian Xia The disciples in the Taoist Academy were discussing.
But the voice just fell.
There was a rumble and explosion.
On the competition stage, there were shadows of swords, and three third-level swords slashed across the air.
Three ferocious roaring purple dragons were instantly killed.
“How is it possible?”
"Am I right?"
"Controlling three third-level swords at the same time, how is this done?"
Seeing this unbelievable scene, all Tianxia The disciples of the Taoist Academy couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
No one thought that Zhou Ling, who was only in the early stages of foundation building, would have such terrifying combat power.
