The day for the release of the rankings for the third month has arrived!
Now, as the day to determine who will be the True Successor is getting closer, the competition on the list is becoming more and more intense, and all the disciples of the Immortal Sect are also paying attention. Now that this month's list is announced, it is the last time before Elder Yun and others return to the mountain. Naturally, it is more concerned about everyone's thoughts. On the day when the list is released, early in the morning, there are already many people gathered in front of the merit stone wall. , even in mid-air and on the mountainside, there were people watching quietly. Even some deacons and elders were alarmed and came to watch the ceremony.
At the front of the stone wall, the top names on the list were all sitting cross-legged, waiting to watch.
It is said that it depends on the ranking, but in fact they are very aware of the changes in each other's merits and have already counted them.
Rather than waiting to see the merit list, it is better to say that they are all here to see their opponents.
"Senior Brother Li, I heard that you have put in a lot of effort this month?"
Sitting next to Li Jianghan was none other than Tai Hezhen. She smiled softly and saluted Li Jianghan: "Not only did she complete three second-level talisman edicts, but her cultivation also broke through the seventh level of Qi training. It's really impressive." I admire it, but my little sister doesn’t know how it is so easy to complete those second-level talisman edicts. I wonder how many staff members of your Li family have secretly punished you to help you?"
Li Jianghan, who was dressed in purple, just smiled when he heard this and said: "Junior Sister Taihe, it feels a bit sour to say this. Without the help of the Qinghe Poetry Society behind you, how could you complete that first-level talisman edict? I also know that you are quite skilled in the Little Clear Dream Technique, but I think that with your ability alone, if you fight against the horned demon alone, your chances of winning are not good, right?"
"What are you talking about? Who doesn't know what's going on with each other?"
Wang Kun, who was leaning lazily on a large bluestone, laughed lazily: "This merit list is based on each person's background and heritage. Anyway, this is also an individual's ability. Not to mention a few of us, even if we are here Among the ten people, how many of them honestly rely on their own abilities to earn merit points? Anyway, the Immortal Sect has also acquiesced, so it just depends on who has the bigger trump card... "
When several geniuses heard this, they all glared at Wang Kun.
How can you say such a thing in public...
While they were talking coldly and ridiculing each other, only two people were silent. One was Xiao Yuanzhi. In order to complete a task, he was seriously injured and lost the qualification to compete for the true biography. But this time he came over. Last month At that time, he was still ranked first, but he had not done any tasks in this month, so his ranking was bound to drop. For some reason, he actually came to the stone wall with his seriously injured body, as if to witness his loss. A moment of true hope!
And the other one is Qi Xiaofeng!
He is now sitting on the edge, and next to him is Wu Qing. The two have not spoken to each other, and they are as silent as strangers. The surrounding Xianmen disciples also look at Qi Xiaofeng with narrow eyes from time to time, pointing. Qi Xiaofeng met this look and just pretended not to see it, while Wu Qing glared back fiercely, but he still couldn't stop the looks that came his way!
During this period of time, Qi Xiaofeng came from behind and broke into the top five again. Logically speaking, he was also a famous figure. However, in the eyes of the Immortal Sect disciples, he was like a joke. After all, Wu Qing's attitude towards Fang Yuan before Everyone knows it.
"Out!"
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly someone shouted out in surprise, and the disciples of the Immortal Sect hurriedly looked up.
On the stone wall, rows of handwriting appeared. From top to bottom, they were Li Jianghan, Wang Kun, Tai Hezhen, Qi Xiaofeng, Xiao Yuanzhi and others. They were not much different from what everyone had guessed, but What is striking is that the number of merits of the first three people is actually about the same. Li Jianghan, who is ranked first, is only a dozen or so digits higher than Taihe Zhen, who is ranked third.
After arriving at Qi Xiaofeng's place, there was a gap of dozens of merit points with the previous one, and Xiao Yuanzhi had a gap of dozens of merit points with him. Below them, the gap was even greater, often tens to hundreds, and Fang Yuan, Then he fell outside the top ten.
"Well, it seems that the true disciple is about to appear among them..."
Everyone started talking in low voices: "I heard that the date for Elder Yun's return to the mountain has been set. In ten days, he has already negotiated with the other four major immortal sects, and the Ascension Conference has been scheduled for three months. , before the Ascension Conference, the true disciples must be decided, and the true disciples must be given a period of time to make full preparations. It is estimated that as soon as the old man comes back to the mountain, he will choose the true disciples. The previous few As an individual, I only have the last ten days to fight..."
"Senior Brother Qi Xiaofeng still has a chance to give it a try, but Senior Brother Xiao Yuanzhi is really useless!"
"Haha, whether Senior Brother Qi can charge forward again depends on Senior Sister Wu Qing's face..."
In the midst of the discussion, Tai Hezhen and others who were ranked at the top also remained silent. They looked at each other and saw the ambition in each other's eyes. In their hearts, they each knew what was going on, and they clearly didn't want to do it. Those who want to give up, in the last ten days, have prepared the last trump card, which is enough to win before Elder Yun returns to the mountain...
"Now it seems there is no suspense..."
On a hillside two or three miles away from the stone wall, Junior Sister Xiao Qiao was also playing chess with a woman in white. When the rankings appeared on the stone wall, Junior Sister Xiao Qiao just glanced at it from a distance and said He shook his head, seemed a little disappointed, and said: "I didn't expect that that guy actually gave up when he said he would give up. I thought he had some back-up plan..."
"Not necessarily, aren't there still ten days?"
The woman in white remained calm, pushed her gently, raised her head and said, "Do you regret giving him the opportunity?"
Junior Sister Xiao Qiao smiled and said, "Anyway, I don't have much confidence if I don't give it to him!"
Having said this, he frowned slightly and said, "But to be honest, I'm a little disappointed in him..."
"Lets see!"
The woman in white didn't comment, just said something lightly. At this moment, a shouting was heard not far away, and a red shadow rolled out of the forest, shouting: "Okay, I'll tell you how to find it." Without you, I was hiding here playing chess..."
The woman in white suddenly laughed bitterly when she heard this: "The stinky chess basket is here!"
"Qing'er... Junior Sister Wu Qing!"
At this moment, Qi Xiaofeng finally couldn't help but turned his head slightly and called Wu Qing.
Wu Qing had no expression on his face and said calmly: "I know you have resentment in your heart, but you'd better not feel that you have been wronged. The power of my Wu family is not so easy to borrow, and not everyone can enter the Wu family's door. , if you want my great-great-grandfather to hand over the fragmentary scroll to the Immortal Sect and fulfill your merits, you'd better forget those messy thoughts and sincerely get engaged to me, and not only do you want to get engaged, I also I want you to swear a poisonous oath to treat me sincerely for the rest of your life and serve my Wu family sincerely for the rest of your life..."
After hearing these words, Qi Xiaofeng's face changed several times, as if a burst of anger was about to burst out, but in the end he suppressed it, and a forced smile appeared on his face: "Qing'er, what are you talking about? It's not like I don't I understand your nonsensical nature. You went to see Fang Yuan some time ago, probably just to tease him, but that guy was very smart, but he didn’t fall for you. Haha, if others don’t understand, how can I know this? I see that you are in a bad mood, it must be because of this incident, right?"
"Hmph..."
Wu Qing smiled indifferently and said directly: "When will you make a blood contract with me?"
Qi Xiaofeng's lips trembled a few times before he hesitated and said: "Tomorrow...or tonight..."
Before he could finish his words, there was a sudden commotion around him. All the disciples of the Immortal Sect moved out of the way. At the same time, there were many voices of surprise. Qi Xiaofeng felt like he was being pardoned. He hurriedly turned around and saw that he was outside the crowd. , Fang Yuan was wearing a green robe, holding a sword in his hand, and was walking slowly into the stone wall. He was suddenly startled, and there was a kind of fierce hatred in his eyes!
"Why is he here?"
"I haven't seen him for almost three months. I didn't expect him to come today..."
All the disciples of the Immortal Sect began to discuss in low voices. Everyone was surprised, and countless eyes looked at Fang Yuan's face.
"Has he not given up yet?"
"We've already reached this point, what's the use if we don't give up?"
In the midst of the discussion, even those sitting cross-legged in front, Li Jianghan, Tai Hezhen, Wang Kun and others, stood up and bowed their hands politely, without showing any arrogance in front of Fang Yuan. After all, the story of slaying demons in Taiyue City has spread throughout the Immortal Sect, and all the Immortal Sect disciples are also aware of Fang Yuan's various methods and tyrannical swordsmanship.
In the Immortal Sect, such capable people are naturally the most respected!
"Junior brother Fang Yuan, I haven't seen you for more than two months. I never thought you would suddenly come here today!"
Li Jianghan laughed and said, "Are you here to watch the rankings, or to see old friends?"
"All of them, but the most important thing is to give me something!"
Fang Yuan smiled, came to the venue, and bowed in all directions, very politely.
Tai Hezhen frowned slightly: "What are you sending?"
Fang Yuan raised the long sword in his hand, then thrust it into the ground, and then pulled it out smoothly. The long sword was unsheathed, and he was holding it behind his back, while the scabbard remained on the ground. Then Fang Yuan moved towards it again. All the fellow disciples bowed and said: "I leave this scabbard here, and I ask my brothers and sisters to help me protect it. Tomorrow at midnight, I will climb the mountain from the foot of the mountain and return this sword to its sheath. All brothers and sisters can help me." I have prepared some small obstacles. No matter who it is, no matter the number of people, it is a small game. Please don’t be polite..."
The disciples of the Immortal Sect were stunned for a moment and did not react for a moment.
After a long while, one person suddenly thought of something and his eyes were bigger than a bell: "Could it be that you...could you want to follow the example of the ancient immortals and challenge all my fellow sects in Xiaozhu Peak by yourself?"
Fang Yuan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "It's not that exaggerated, it's just a game!"
