Chapter 63: The June 3rd Conference is about to start
“Is this serious?”
“My disciple sent someone to check, and it is true that he is in the top twenty. It cannot be wrong.”
< br>Zhao Chun, a disciple of the inner sect who is in the middle stage of Qi training, has climbed to the sect's dangerous place and ranked 19th. This kind of situation has not happened in the Lingzhen sect for more than a hundred years. As a result, the news spread very quickly. In one day, it was known to the entire sect and reached Du Fan's ears. He did not dare to be careless. After investigating and confirming it, he immediately informed Li Shu.
"I actually missed it. Is it a lost pearl?" Because of his mysterious spiritual roots, Li Shu really didn't care much about Zhao Xun, his disciple. She is not the only one. There are many disciples under her, and it is impossible to give them advice one by one. They all wait for them to achieve foundation building before they get some favor and receive them to teach.
Although there are not many disciples in the sect who have reached the top of the list, there are always a few, but they all rank in the eighth or ninth place, which is not very impressive. Zhao Chun scored nineteen in one fell swoop, and even Li Shu was quite surprised.
Du Fanzhi asked in a low voice: "Do you need the disciples to contact you?"
"This matter is not urgent." Li Shu waved his hand and replied: "Wait until the competition. , it’s not too late to make contact again. After all, he is my disciple, and since he has some skills, he may be able to help me a little bit.”
“You just need to take care of the rest. When Zi Xun breaks through the Ning Yuan, the situation is complete. "The great disciple Huo Zixun has already reached the peak of the foundation building stage. This retreat is for the purpose of advancing to the Ning Yuan stage. When he succeeds, the master and the disciple will be in the Ning Yuan stage. , is the absolute leader among the Lingzhen Sect. However, he was very regretful that he did not win the Purple Rose Branch. He only knew that Chi Song died, and he did not know who took the treasure away.
Du Fanzhi understood the importance and answered yes in a low voice. He also reported some inner sect chores before bidding farewell to his master and leaving the hall.
As soon as I left the palace, I met a woman with long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and no makeup on. Du Fanzhi said hurriedly: "Senior sister is here."
This woman is Li Shu's second disciple, Liu Xuan, who is also a monk in the late stage of foundation building, second only to Huo Zixun in the sect. He was away from home all year round and rarely returned to the sect. He rarely intervened in power struggles and was devoted to the Tao. That's why Du Fanzhi fell into Li Shu's eyes.
"Yes." She nodded slightly and said warmly: "This time when I return to the sect, I am here to pay my respects to the master."
"As it should be, then junior brother will not disturb you and go ahead. Resign." Du Fanzhi resigned as he was told, but before he could move away, he heard Liu Xuan ask: "Recently, the sect has a saying, about a disciple in the inner sect who broke into the top twenty schools in Sansan Stone Forest. Has Junior Brother heard of it? "
Du Fanzhi didn't know why she became interested in this matter, so he replied: "Senior Sister, I may not know that this disciple is also a disciple of Master, and is now nineteen years old."
"We are still from the same sect." Liu Xuan's eyes widened slightly, with a smile. "In that case, we have to find a chance to meet."
"That's easy, junior brother set up a competition in the Yuangu Dojo. "The twenty people who have decided to go to the Hundred Sects Meeting will come, and the nineteen junior sisters will also come. Then I will invite the senior sister to come in person." In words, he sent an invitation to Liu Xuan, who was among the inner disciples. It also has an extraordinary status, has its own strength, and can be regarded as adding some importance to the conference.
This matter may have been caused by Zhao Shun, but she herself did not know it.
After breaking into the realm of sword light, she returned to her residence and closed the door. She only knew that the outside world was talking about her, but she did not know that she had become a semi-famous figure. Many disciples also looked sideways.
In addition, after getting on the list, he also received five hundred stones from the sect. Although it is not much, it can still fill some of his needs. After practicing intensively at her residence for more than a month, the aura around her body became calmer and stronger. Zhao Chun narrowed her eyes and was quite confident about the competition. With her current methods, the disciples at the seventh level of Qi training are not afraid at all, and they may be able to compete with the eighth level. .
While Zhao Chun was practicing, Cuicui also found out the people participating in the competition and told her as if taking credit.
Among the four elders, except for Qiu Silhouette, who has not accepted any disciples, Li Shu has nineteen disciples, and together with her, a total of eight people participated in the war. Three of Wu Yunzhang's disciples participated in the war, and one person participated in the war. The most numerous was Ge Xingchao, who accepted a total of There were more than three hundred disciples, and there were about one hundred and fifty who participated in the battle. There is also Zheng Chenqing, who was personally taught by the headmaster and has only reached the ninth level of Qi training.
Zhao Shun originally thought that Li Shu had many disciples, but he didn't expect that Ge Xingchao had 300 disciples. Later, I learned that the sect had ordered that disciples with double spiritual roots must be accepted as disciples of elders after entering the inner sect. Qiu Yingying was still young and refused to accept disciples. Wu Yunzhang was obsessed with refining weapons and did not want to be accepted as disciples. Li Shu was very good at accepting disciples. If Qiu Yingying had not spoken out, he would not have accepted Zhao Chun. Therefore, Ge Xingchao had no choice but to follow the sect's laws and recruit many disciples.
A total of one hundred and sixty-two people came to the competition. Fifty-five of them were in the late stage of Qi training and were the focus of this battle. There were also eight people at the ninth level of Qi training. Two of them were almost finalized. Half of the ten places.
These disciples may be surprised that Zhao Chun is ranked 19th on the list, but they do not really regard him as an opponent. He is only at the sixth level of Qi training, and it is difficult for him to be in the eyes of others.
The competition is held in the Yuangu Dojo, which is beside the Guantian River. It is named after a huge round stone placed in the ground, which looks like a big drum.
Those who come to this conference are all disciples of the elders, possessing double spiritual roots, and are genius disciples in the eyes of others. Therefore, in addition to a few foundation-building disciples from the inner sect who came to watch, there were also many people from the outer sect. However, they were unable to receive Du Fan's invitation and could not sit down, so they could only gather in the outer circle of the dojo.
Three senior sisters and Zhou Pianran are also here. They took special leave today to come and support Zhao Shun in the audience.
Zhao Chun looked over and saw Cao Wenguan, the receptionist, standing next to Cui Lan'e, whispering to her from time to time, and he was very familiar with her.
On the high pavilion stage, Meng Han and Xu Feng sat together. After he returned to the sect, he was summoned by Zhao Shun and found out that he had returned to the sect. He was relieved. The first reason for coming here this time was for Du. The second reason Fan Zhi invited was for Zhao Chun, and he was fully confident that she could win the place in the Hundred Sects Chaohui.
Du Fanzhi occupied the main seat, leaving an empty one next to him. Everyone was still confused, but suddenly they heard some fragrant fragrance drifting into the pavilion. A woman named Pingting walked in, and some people were surprised to hear: " It’s Alchemist Liu who has arrived!”
The elder personally taught him the first level. What really makes the inner disciples admire him is Liu Xuan’s exquisite alchemy skills. At a young age, he is already a third-level alchemy master in the Huang rank. Can refine the elixir used in the foundation building stage. If he is promoted to Ningyuan and reaches the second level, he can make elixirs for the elders of the sect. The Lingzhen sect's alchemy path was declining, and it took a long time for Liu Xuan to appear, so he was highly regarded in every possible way.
She nodded to everyone, walked slowly into the seat, and said with a smile: "I was delayed today to start the furnace, but I asked my Taoist friends to wait."
Everyone behind her was waiting. It's okay, then Du Fanzhi raised his hand and said: "Senior sister is here, let's start immediately."
As soon as these words came out, the bell-ringing disciples took the signal and rang the big copper bell on the high platform, followed by two rows of big drums. The spectators became interested in the battle and raised their arms and shouted. The atmosphere was high for a while, and the disciples participating in the battle were excited. open.
