Countless people felt their scalps tingling.
They thought that Senior Brother Li Xun would win, and they also thought that Zhao Heng would lose, but they didn't expect that Senior Brother Li Xun would win so easily.
No one expected that Zhao Heng would be defeated so miserably.
It seemed that the weapons he had practiced for many years were completely broken.
"Elder, can you announce the results?"
On the high platform.
Li Xun said calmly.
"Oh, sure."
The purple-robed elder looked at Li Xun deeply, and quickly recovered from his shock.
There were only six words left in his mind to describe Li Xun.
This kid is so terrifying!
With just one punch, he defeated a being who was one level higher than him, and he seemed to be at ease. It was hard to imagine how terrifying he would be if he used his full strength.
"cough!"
The purple-robed elder came to the center of the platform again. He coughed lightly and said slowly, "First match, Li Xun wins!"
"Brother Li is mighty!"
Someone among the inner disciples shouted loudly.
Li Xun's punch could be regarded as a vent for their years of frustration. After all, many disciples had been bullied by Zhao Heng or his men.
They couldn't afford to offend Zhao Heng, but they saw Li Xun defeat Zhao Heng so easily today.
They were still extremely excited, as if they had defeated Zhao Heng.
For a while.
Countless disciples below the stage were all excited.
Chapter 69 I Need You to Go to Zhentian City
Next.
Li Xun's competition was much easier.
In almost every match, his opponent would admit defeat as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
Until the last game.
A junior brother in the early stage of Xuandan realm, with an attitude of giving it a try, fought with Li Xun, and as expected, he was defeated in one move.
So far.
Li Xun won the title of first place in this year's competition.
at the same time.
He also obtained the status of a core disciple.
The purple-robed elder at the side came over with a smile on his face. He said with a smile, "Congratulations, Junior Brother Li."
"Junior Brother Li's core disciple clothing and identity jade card have been placed in the main hall at the back. Junior Brother Li can go and claim them at any time."
"Thank you, Elder!"
Li Xun bowed and then walked down the platform.
Amid countless admiring and respectful gazes, he entered the hall at the back of the square.
After entering the hall.
The back of a tall figure with gray hair and dressed in elder's attire attracted his attention.
"Thank you, Elder?"
Li Xun confirmed it.
He was very familiar with this silhouette; it was Elder Xie who had killed tens of thousands of evil demons that day.
at this time.
Li Xun was somewhat confused. Logically speaking, Elder Xie was not responsible for the competition among the core disciples. His appearance here today seemed a little strange.
Could it be that he came to take me as his disciple
There has always been a rule in the Xuanyang Sect that after becoming a core disciple, one can choose an elder to become his disciple.
Of course.
Each elder can also choose the core disciple of his/her choice and accept him/her as his/her apprentice.
Once a core disciple successfully becomes a disciple of an elder, his status will automatically change from a core disciple to a true disciple.
There is no difference in treatment between core disciples and true disciples.
The only difference is that one has a master and the other doesn't.
If he didn't have the system, Li Xun would have immediately worshipped Elder Xie as his master without saying anything, but the problem was that he had the system...
and.
The martial arts he was practicing at this time was no longer earth-level, but genuine heaven-level!
He didn't think that Elder Xie in front of him could give him any guidance in cultivation.
Rather than becoming his disciple, it is better to let your master doubt his life every day.
It is better to practice alone, which will make you more free and at ease.
"Nephew Li."
Elder Xie turned around, looked Li Xun up and down, and said with admiration: "In just a few months, you have become a core disciple from an inner disciple."
"You are the first person to have such a high cultivation speed since the founding of Xuanyang Sect!"
"This is all due to the good training from the master."
Li Xun temporarily suppressed his doubts and spoke softly.
"Ha ha."
Elder Xie smiled heartily, shook his head and said, "I don't agree with what you said. I know what kind of geniuses Xuanyang Sect can cultivate."
“When you came in just now, you were stunned for a moment. Did you think that I came here today to accept you as my disciple?”
Finally.
Elder Xie looked at Li Xun with a meaningful gaze. There was a hint of hope and a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
If Li Xun really wanted to take him as his master, it would be the most glorious thing in his life. After all, in just a few months, he would become a core disciple.
If we continue to practice at this speed, what will the scene be like in ten years
However, Elder Xie knew that with his own strength, he might not be able to teach Li Xun, so his eyes were very complicated, and he had the surprise of seeing a genius.
There is also the frustration of seeing a genius and suddenly realizing that you have no way of teaching him.
"Thank you, Elder, for your insight. This disciple did think so just now."
Li Xun nodded and said.
"and you…
Elder Xie tried to ask a question, but before he could finish his words, he suddenly laughed at himself and waved his hand, saying, "I'd better not ask for humiliation."
"A few days ago, even the headmaster said personally that even if he accepted you as his disciple, there would not be much he could teach you. If I were to accept you as my disciple, I'm afraid it would only delay your future."
"Elder Xie is too modest. With your strength, it is not excessive even to teach a young emperor."
Hearing what Elder Xie said, Li Xun felt relieved.
"Ha ha."
Elder Xie laughed again. He patted Li Xun on the shoulder and said, "I didn't expect that Junior Brother Li could be so tactful. Before, I thought you were like other geniuses, always very arrogant."
"I won't say any more nonsense."
Elder Xie's smile faded, and his expression became serious. He said in a deep voice: "I came here today for two things."
Speaking of.
He flipped his palm and a tray appeared in his palm, on which was a lavender dress and two jade tablets.
Elder Xie brought it to Li Xun and continued, "The first thing I will do is bring you the core disciple's clothes, the identity jade token, and the soul jade token."
"Thank you, Elder."
Li Xun said with a bow.
"I won't say much about the clothes and identity jade token. They are the same as for the inner disciples. But for the soul jade token, you need to separate a wisp of your divine consciousness and attach it to it."
Elder Xie picked up the soul jade token and explained, "Every core disciple is the backbone of Xuanyang Sect and cannot afford to lose anything. You attach your divine consciousness to it. If anything happens to you in the future, Xuanyang Sect will know it immediately."
"Disciple understands."
Li Xun nodded, and immediately separated a strand of his thoughts and infiltrated into the soul jade token.
In his opinion, this jade token is actually of little use, because when the jade token is broken, it means that the person is dead. At that time, all the Xuanyang Sect can do is revenge.
For the dead, it is meaningless at all. It would be more useful to give them two life-saving cards.
Elder Xie didn't know what Li Xun was thinking. When he saw that Li Xun had already put a trace of thought into the soul jade token, he nodded with satisfaction and reached out to take the soul jade token back.
"The second thing is that after putting away the soul jade card, Elder Xie said calmly: "The sect needs you to go to Zhentian City."
"Zhentian City?"
Li Xun was extremely surprised and couldn't help but look up at Elder Xie with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
The reason why this is so.
The main reason is that Zhentian City has another name, which is the Imperial City of Great Zhou!
The Xuanyang Sect only ruled an area of tens of thousands of miles, but compared with the Great Zhou Dynasty that ruled an area of tens of millions of miles, there was a huge difference.
In the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are about a dozen forces like the Xuanyang Sect.
Among these dozen, there are three or four forces that are stronger than Xuanyang Sect.
Elder Xie saw Li Xun's confusion and explained, "The Great Zhou Divine Emperor issued an edict a few days ago, inviting all the geniuses under the age of 25 in the Great Zhou territory who have cultivated to the middle stage of the Yuan Qi Realm to go to Zhentian City for a competition."
"The top three hundred contestants can enter the Yuanhuang Secret Realm!"
"If one can cultivate to the Xuandan realm or above before the age of 25..."
At this point, Elder Xie's eyes fell on Li Xun's face, and he slowly said: "You can be exempted from the competition and directly obtain the qualification to enter the secret realm!"
Chapter 70 Your words are enough
"oh?"
Li Xun's eyes lit up.
Those above the Xuandan realm can directly obtain a qualification. Doesn't that mean... ...I don't need to compete
This is a good thing, at least it saves me a lot of effort.
"What the headmaster means is that you will lead the team to Zhentian City this time, and I will accompany you to protect your safety." Elder Xie said slowly.
"after all… …
""In the entire Xuanyang Sect, you are the strongest among those under the age of 25. Once you enter the Yuanhuang Secret Realm, if you are free, you'd better take care of the other inner disciples." At the last sentence.
Elder Xie's voice was extremely solemn.
This time.
Once the Great Zhou Divine Emperor issues an edict, almost all forces in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty will flock to it. At that time, geniuses will be as numerous as crucian carp crossing the river.
Li Xun might be able to handle them with ease, but that might not be the case for others.
The Xuanyang Sect had just experienced an incident with evil demons from outside the domain. At this juncture, it could no longer withstand any more blows if some of its inner sect disciples died.
