In the sect competition, only the names on the Heavenly Ranking List will be taken.
After the news got out.
The competition on the Tianbang list is even more intense.
The number of spots in the Tianban is important.
Being able to participate in the sect competition is even more important.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
The sect competition is based on the number of places on the Heavenly Ranking, so this kind of competition will definitely be more intense.
same.
The competition is fierce and the rewards will definitely be huge.
For those disciples.
How could you miss such a good thing
Library.
Because there were a lot fewer disciples, there were also a lot less people in the main sect's library.
Some of the books here.
A copy was also printed and distributed to various branches.
It can be said.
After obtaining these books, the background of the book collection in the branch is actually not much different from that of the main sect.
I have to say a difference.
It's probably a matter of the magical technique.
The magic method.
In the hands of any top sect, it is a supreme skill that can determine the foundation and inheritance of the sect.
For Yuan Zong.
The spiritual skills are equally important.
At this stage, there are not many spiritual skills in the human race. When Yuan Pavilion was established, a large part of the credit for its great momentum lay in the skills.
Loose cultivators all over the world.
Nine out of ten people who go to Yuange to register are going for the spiritual skills.
Even now the other three major continents have been opened.
The spiritual skills are still controlled by those top forces.
No matter who it is.
None of it was easily leaked.
Therefore, Yuan Zong also strictly controlled the road to heaven and man. All the techniques to connect the gods were placed on the fifth floor of the main sect's library.
Branches everywhere.
He is also not eligible for rubbings.
at this time.
The library, which was originally sparsely populated, welcomed a sudden person.
The fourth floor of the library.
Wang Tiezhu was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. After feeling someone approaching, he opened his eyes.
"Why is Elder Xian free to come to the library today, but he wants to study martial arts?"
For the sword test.
Wang Tiezhu is also relatively familiar with it.
Although he didn't meet the other party often, he had dealt with him several times.
This outer sect elder is very powerful.
This was Wang Tiezhu's biggest impression of Jianfeng.
Shi Jianfeng looked at Wang Tiezhu with a cold face and said, "Shi Jianfeng came to the library this time not for anything else, but for Elder Wang!"
"I?"
Wang Tiezhu looked puzzled.
Shi Jianfeng said: "Elder Wang is ranked first in the Lingwu Ranking. Shi Mou is yearning for it and wants to ask Elder Wang for advice to confirm what he has learned."
"The number one on the Lingwu Ranking is just a random arrangement on the Heavenly Ranking. Why should the trial elders care?"
"The Heavenly List is unmistakable."
Shi Jianfeng shook his head slightly and said immediately: "Please give me some advice from Elder Wang!"
Hear the words.
Wang Tiezhu sighed and said: "I was ordered by the sect leader to stay in the Library Pavilion. I am not allowed to leave at will without an order, and there is no suitable place in the Library Pavilion to do anything. I think it's better to forget it."
"—"
Shi Jianfeng frowned, but he had never thought about this problem.
suddenly.
A person appeared between the two of them and said with a slight smile: "As long as there is no problem in the library, Elder Wang can leave at any time."
"metropolitan!"
"I've met the sect master!"
When they saw the person appearing, Wang Tiezhu and Shi Jianfeng both saluted and greeted them.
Immediately.
Wang Tiezhu's face also looked a little helpless.
Originally, this excuse was enough to block the sword tester.
Now Qin Shujian appears.
Instead, it made him roll over directly.
Qin Shujian smiled lightly and said: "Since you have entered the Tianban, it is natural to be challenged. There is no reason to practice behind closed doors. You must know that cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat."
"That's what the sect master taught you." Wang Tiezhu lowered his head and said.
"Go!" Qin Shujian waved his hand and said, "If Elder Shi wants to challenge you, don't give him a chance. If you defeat him, at least he won't harass you for some time in the future.
On the contrary, if you are not as strong as others and occupy the first position in the spiritual martial arts list, it will be difficult to convince the public. "
"... What the sect leader said makes sense."
Wang Tiezhu was helpless.
Does he want to be ranked number one on the Lingwu Ranking
It's obviously the ranking that was automatically arranged on the Heavenly Ranking.
but.
Wang Tiezhu also knows how beneficial it is to be number one in the Lingwu Realm.
Not to mention anything else, just during the time I was on the list, my cultivation was much faster than before.
And there are insights emerging in my heart.
If he guessed correctly, this is the benefit of the sect's luck.
Qin Shujian had already spoken up to this point, and Wang Tiezhu had no reason to back down.
Immediately.
He just looked at Jian Feng and said, "I wonder where Elder Jian wants to compete?"
"Let Elder Wang choose."
"There is no need to choose. Let's just compete in the martial arts field. It will also let the disciples of the main sect see what stage of strength the elders of the sect are at."
Qin Shujian interrupted the conversation between the two.
Compare.
Naturally, I went to the martial arts arena to compete.
Otherwise, what's the point of setting up a martial arts arena.
Wang Tiezhu had no way to refute Qin Shujian, a person who just watched the excitement and didn't take it too seriously.
Subsequently.
The three of them left the library directly and headed to the martial arts field.
at the same time.
The news of the sword test challenging Wang Tiezhu also spread in the main sect.
For Wang Tiezhu.
Most of the disciples left by the main sect have never heard of this name.
Don't say it's them.
Even among the elders and deacons in the sect, many people have forgotten this name.
There is nothing we can do about this.
Since Wang Tiezhu became the elder of Cangshuge, he has been practicing silently in Cangshuge, like a transparent person.
This also leads to.
Wang Tiezhu is inconspicuous, and he doesn't even have much fame.
Compared with other inner sect elders, such as Zheng Fang Niufeng and others, his sense of presence is really low.
only.
What everyone didn't expect was.
Just such an elder with no sense of existence suddenly sat on the top of the Lingwu Ranking.
To know.
There are not many monks in the Lingwu Realm in Yuanzong, and there are even many strong men at the peak of the Lingwu Realm.
inside these people.
There is no shortage of strong men who can surpass the level to compete with the divine martial realm.
But even so.
Still ranked below Wang Tiezhu.
Suddenly.
The elder of the library came into everyone's sight.
It's just that Wang Tiezhu stays in the library all year round and basically never takes a step.
Even if someone wants to test the depth of the other party.
I couldn't find any opportunities.
After all, there are still few people who are as direct as testing the edge of a sword.
An honest invitation to fight.
If one person is not good, he might make the other person disgusted.
at this time.
In the martial arts arena, Qin Shujian was already sitting on top, while below were standing the sword tester and Wang Tiezhu.
"Sect Master, can we start?"
Wang Tiezhu turned his head and said.
Qin Shujian said: "Don't be in a hurry, just wait, no one has come yet, why are you so anxious to start?"
"-All right!"
Wang Tiezhu could only nod in agreement.
It didn't take long.
Then many elders came.
not only that.
Some disciples who got the news also came here after hearing the news.
The main sect is full of people, but there are only more than 200 people.
And among the more than two hundred people.
Not counting those practicing in seclusion, everyone has gathered here.
"Tsk, tsk, I haven't seen Elder Wang take action in many years. He is really hidden deep enough. If it weren't for the Heavenly Ranking, no one would know that Elder Wang is actually the number one person in my Yuan Zong Spiritual Martial Realm."
Xu Yuanming stood aside and looked at Wang Tiezhu in the field, his face full of surprise.
to be honest.
Ranked first on the Lingwu Ranking, he thought it might be Zheng Fang, it might be Niu Feng, it might be Zeng Hong, or it might be someone else.
Only Wang Tiezhu and Xu Yuanming had never thought about it.
Zheng Fang stopped talking.
As a great elder, he always believed that the other party had many secrets hidden in him.
Although he rarely takes action.
But there are few records of shots, and the results are very good, and they have surpassed the level against the great monks in the God of War realm.
As for Niu Feng, Zeng Hong and others, their strength is not weak.
Xu Yuanming asked himself.
His strength should be in the top five in the Lingwu Realm.
However.
As soon as the Tianbang came out, Xu Yuanming almost lost his temper.
Tenth on the Lingwu Ranking!
Almost fell out of the top ten.
so.
He also had some resentment in his heart about Wang Tiezhu's first place.
Zhang Tieniu on the side heard this, shook his head and said: "Maybe he has spent more time practicing, so he is stronger."
Xu Yuanming rolled his eyes at him.
Say it.
Zhang Tieniu himself didn’t believe it.
Subsequently.
Xu Yuanming said: "From Elder Zhang's perspective, who has a better chance of winning this battle?"
"Elder Wang ranks first in the spiritual martial arts rankings, and Elder Trial Ranking ranks fourth in the spiritual martial arts rankings. The gap is not very big, and after the establishment of the heavenly rankings, it is not that the person ranked first has been replaced.
In my opinion, the elder should have a greater chance of winning. "
Zhang Tieniu analyzed calmly.
After Shi Jianfeng re-entered the Spiritual Martial Realm, he had reached the level of the Sky Control Realm in a short period of time, and was not far behind the Xian Sheng Realm.
Just talking about realm.
It is not as good as Wang Tiezhu to test the edge of a sword.
only-
In the previous battle between the human race and other races, the swordsman tried his best to kill a demon race in the divine martial realm.
Such strength.
It cannot be measured by realm.
Once the Seven Kills of Gods and Ghosts are launched, it is not easy to resist them.
At least.
Zhang Tieniu himself was not sure he could take it.
Therefore, although Trial Jianfeng is only ranked fourth, if he really wants to fight to the death, Wang Tiezhu may not be his opponent.
Hearing this, Xu Yuanming also nodded with deep sympathy: "Indeed, when it comes to life and death fighting, no one can match Elder Shi's strength, except those elders from the Keqing Realm of Shenwu Realm.
Otherwise, no one in the Lingwu Realm can stop him.
It's just that the competition is not a fight, and some methods may not be suitable when used, so in my opinion, Elder Wang has a greater chance of winning. "
"Elder Xu wants to take a gamble?"
Zhang Tieniu said with a half-smile.
Xu Yuanming raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "How does Elder Zhang want to bet?"
"I have a piece of Yanyang Jade in my hand, which is an eighth-level material. If it is given to the Forging Hall, it may be able to be cast into a powerful high-grade spiritual weapon."
"Yanyang Jade!"
Xu Yuanming's expression moved slightly, then he smiled and said: "Okay, then I'll take a gamble with Elder Zhang, but I don't have the eighth-level materials, but I do have a long sword that is a medium-grade spiritual weapon.
How about I exchange this knife for your Yan Yang Jade? "
"make a deal."
Zhang Tieniu smiled slightly.
Although Yanyang Jade is an eighth-level material, it can be made into a top-grade spiritual weapon.
But materials are materials after all, and casting high-grade spiritual weapons cannot just rely on a piece of Yanyang Jade.
the most important is.
There is also a risk of failure in forging magic weapons.
In comparison.
A medium-grade spiritual weapon is worth the same amount in exchange for a material that can be used to make a high-grade spiritual weapon.
"If Elder Wang wins, the middle-grade spiritual weapon will be mine. If Elder Wang wins, Yanyang Jade will be given away."
"good."
"Then it's settled." Zhang Tieniu also had a big smile on his face.
After coming out to watch the battle for a while, he got a mid-grade spiritual weapon. He still felt good.
Although he and Wang Tiezhu can be regarded as colleagues.
But to be honest.
Zhang Tieniu did not have much confidence in Wang Tiezhu's strength.
The other party's ranking first in the Lingwu Ranking may just be due to his profound cultivation.
But cultivation level does not necessarily represent strength.
There are many strong people who challenge themselves through higher levels.
When it comes to realm, many people in the sect can challenge Jian Feng, but when it comes to strength, there are probably only a few who dare to say that they are stronger than Jian Feng.
on the contrary.
Wang Tiezhu only practiced training and did not have much experience in fighting against strong men.
As for the little combat experience he had in Liangshan Village, it is completely insufficient now.
Immediately.
Xu Yuanming turned his head to look at Zheng Fang and Niu Feng, smiled lightly and said, "How about you two elders, do you want to play together?"
"I'll challenge the elder to win. It's a mid-grade spiritual weapon."
Zheng Fang looked calm, looked at the two people present, and spoke slowly.
"I also won the test of the elder, a middle-grade spiritual weapon." Niu Feng answered, then looked at Xu Yuanming, chuckled and said: "In this case, if the test of the elder wins, Elder Xu will not only lose one It's so simple as a medium-grade spiritual weapon.
Can you catch this plate? "
"It's just a few spiritual weapons, there's nothing I can't catch."
Xu Yuanming narrowed his eyes and immediately smiled.
soon.
A small bet was formed.
However, among the onlookers, only a few people focused on the two of them. Instead, the vast majority of people focused on Qin Shujian, who was sitting on the referee's bench.
In the eyes of Yuanzong people.
Qin Shujian is like a god.
Many people who join the sect have little chance to meet the sect leader.
Now there is a chance.
Naturally, he couldn't help but cast his eyes on the other party.
Seeing that everyone has arrived.
Qin Shujian looked at the field and said loudly: "This competition only determines the outcome, not life or death. Anyone who dares to deliberately kill people, or even inflict serious injuries, will be severely punished."
Hear the words.
Xu Yuanming had a clear smile on his face, but Zhang Tieniu and others looked indifferent.
Immediately, Qin Shujian changed the topic and said, "But this time, I will personally supervise the referee. You can use whatever means you have. Don't worry too much."
As soon as this sentence came out.
Zhang Tieniu and others smiled brightly, while Xu Yuanming's smile stiffened slightly.
He had forgotten.
This competition was hosted by Qin Shujian.
Although the competition is not allowed to kill people, nor is it allowed to intentionally seriously injure people, but with the sect leader here, who can hurt someone in front of him.
At that time.
It’s not about how many means there are and how many means are used.
Although Xu Yuanming defeated Wang Tiezhu and won, the prerequisite was that he did not use the move that shocked the world and made the gods cry.
otherwise.
Wang Tiezhu will most likely have to kneel down.
Xu Yuanming's heart twitched slightly when he thought that he might have to lose three middle-grade spiritual weapons.
Three middle-grade spiritual weapons!
But it's not a small price to pay.
Even with his status as an elder of the inner sect and the oil and water in the junk hall, it would still be painful to take out three middle-grade spiritual weapons at once.
only.
The words have been spoken, and there is no possibility of going back on them.
Now Xu Yuanming can only pray, and Wang Tiezhu can be more confident.
No matter what.
The opponent is also number one on the Lingwu Ranking, so it’s not like he has no means at all.
However, when he thought that Wang Tiezhu was stuck at the library door and couldn't step forward, he sighed again: "But it's hard to say."
at this time.
As Qin Shujian waved his hand, a defensive formation fell down, covering most of the entire martial arts field.
Everyone within the range of the formation.
Except for Wang Tiezhu and Shi Jianfeng, everyone else was forced out.
"I have set up a formation. Even if the gods take action, there is no possibility of breaking the formation. You can just go ahead and do whatever you want."
After doing all this, Qin Shujian sat comfortably on the referee's seat.
Within these few days.
He was also a bit bored.
Among the four major continents, except for the eastern continent which is much calmer, the other three major continents are experiencing undercurrents.
In addition, a group of strong men died not long ago.
For some races, it has caused great turmoil.
Moreover, it is currently in the limelight, and if it goes beyond the borders of the human race, it will definitely attract a lot of attention.
so.
Qin Shujian just stayed in the sect with peace of mind and took this opportunity to take a rest.
But rest is rest.
Boredom will still be boring.
Therefore, when the sword test was about to challenge Wang Tiezhu, he came to join in the fun.
For Wang Tiezhu to be able to enter the first place on the Lingwu Ranking.
Say something from your heart.
Not only others were surprised, but Qin Shujian himself was also surprised.
He knows the strength of Jianfeng.
But what Wang Tiezhu said.
Qin Shujian didn't know much.
In the past, when we were in Liangshan Village, there was nothing to say. The other party was just a young monk who had entered the martial arts realm.
Later, after Yuanzong was established.
Wang Tiezhu stayed in the library and did not come out.
After so many years of nesting.
Qin Shujian also didn't pay much attention to the elder of the library.
But now it seems.
Wang Tiezhu still hides a lot of secrets.
"Could it be because of the PoWu Red Lotus, but that's not right. Although there are not many people practicing PoWu Red Lotus, there are still about ten or twenty people. Why can Wang Tiezhu be in the first place
It's okay to give it a try. As a sect leader, I don't know how strong the people in the sect are, so I'm not very qualified. "
Qin Shujian was thinking about something.
However, his eyes remained on the two of them.
There is no doubt that Wang Tiezhu's cultivation is firmly at the peak of Lingwu, and as for the sword test, he is at the sixth level of Lingwu.
In terms of cultivation, there are four small realms of difference between the two sides.
However, Trial Sword Edge is a self-destruction and reconstruction, and its foundation is very powerful, which can almost close this gap.
In the field.
After the formation was deployed.
Shi Jianfeng said calmly: "Please give me some advice from Elder Wang!"
"please!"
Wang Tiezhu slightly arched his hands, indicating that the other party should take action first.
To this.
There is no humility even when trying to test the edge of the sword.
I saw him taking a step forward, sword energy suddenly emerged under his feet, a sword lotus bloomed out of thin air, and then the long sword on his back suddenly unsheathed, half of the sword fell out of the scabbard, and the sword energy that had been accumulated for a long time burst out.
Tear—
The sword energy cut through the space, causing a harsh cry.
Wang Tiezhu's expression suddenly became solemn, and his normal skin turned slightly golden. Two rows of shallow footprints were left in the martial arts arena. Then he punched out, and the air immediately exploded.
boom! !
The terrifying power swept out like a wave of air, wiping out the sword energy abruptly.
Immediately afterwards.
Wang Tiezhu struck out with a palm, and the true energy adhered to it. Like the angry glare of King Kong, the heavy momentum condensed the air.
His eyes lit up when he tested the sword's edge. The long sword was completely unsheathed. The frost-white sword light gave people a bone-chilling chill under the scorching sun.
The next moment.
The long sword pierced the air, and the sword energy tore through the sky and the earth.
Wang Tiezhu refused to dodge, and his palm, which was supposed to be flesh and blood, seemed to turn into gold and iron at this moment, directly colliding with the sword energy.
boom!
boom! boom!
It's okay if the two of them don't take action, but once they do, they will have earth-shattering power.
What the formation blocked was only the power leaked from the two of them.
But it does not include momentum.
The expressions of the disciples who were watching all changed when they felt this huge momentum.
"I know Elder Shi's strength. I heard that he has killed great monks in the Divine Martial Realm, but I didn't expect Elder Wang's strength to be so terrifying."
"To be number one on the Lingwu Ranking, of course there is a reason for it. This trip is well worth it!"
"Everyone is at the Spiritual Martial Realm, and the gap is really huge."
Many disciples made sounds of exclamation.
Many people have never really experienced any war.
Only a very small number of people can keep their faces calm.
these people.
They are all disciples who have participated in the war between the human race and other races, but survived by luck.
Even the powerful gods and even the emperors of all clans have witnessed the battles with their own eyes.
In comparison.
The battle in front of them was only at the Spiritual Martial Realm, and no matter how grand it was, it could not cause much fluctuation in their hearts.
the other side.
The expressions of Xu Yuanming and others also became serious.
From the battle to now.
Neither side is left behind.
It's okay to test the edge of the sword, but when it comes to Wang Tiezhu's words, one word surges up in their hearts: hide it deeply!
Think of this.
Xu Yuanming smiled and said: "Elder Wang can aspire to be the first in the Lingwu Ranking. His strength is really amazing. If this development continues, the elder may not win."
"Where can I go from now on? Let's talk about being able to withstand the Seven Kills of Gods and Ghosts and Ni Xingdou."
Niu Feng glanced at him and sneered.
The competition has just begun, do you think you don’t have to lose
Why are they afraid of trying the sword? Is it because of the strength that the opponent is showing now
That is naturally impossible.
What really makes them fearful is the shocking sword move that is enough to kill someone in the divine martial realm.
Hear the words.
Xu Yuanming's smile also faded a little.
Indeed, it is too early to talk about victory or defeat.
Although the two sides fought fiercely, no one used their true strength.
Everything is yet to come.
