"We should find a master who can teach Cao Xin." Yang Qi said lightly.
Hearing this, Cao Min was stunned, and then nodded. In fact, even if Yang Qi didn't say it, he believed that the family's top leaders had also discovered this. In the past, although Cao Xin's talent and potential were not bad, it was not worth the family's efforts to cultivate him. However, now Cao Xin has almost become the best of his generation in the Cao family, and he is not a practitioner of the walking corpse puppet. The Cao family will never sit idly by and watch such a genius buried.
Although the Cao family specializes in corpse puppets, in fact, the top leaders of the Cao family have long been thinking about diversified development. The disadvantages of specializing in one thing, coupled with the disadvantages of the family, the Cao family has been on a downward trend as a whole in recent years. If these disadvantages are not resolved as soon as possible, the Cao family will probably become just another family in the long history of Yuecheng.
The lists of practitioners from the three factions were exchanged as scheduled, and the Corpse Puppet Sect confirmed it. The lists of the other two factions did not surprise the Cao family, but the Cao family's list did surprise the other two factions. Because according to the information they had previously inquired, the practitioners from the Cao family were not Cao Xin and Yang Qi at all!
"Brother Gu, who are these Cao Xin and Yang Qi?" The man in brocade clothes looked at the old man in gorgeous clothes not far away.
These two people are the persons in charge of this competition between the other two forces. The old man in gorgeous clothes is Gu Yu from Qingfeng Valley, and the man in brocade clothes who spoke is Chen Chen from Yunhai Palace.
"I have heard of Cao Xin. It is said that she is a genius of the Cao family and follows the path of ice sword. However, her strength does not seem to be the strongest among the low-level martial kings of the Cao family." Gu Yu raised his eyebrows and continued, "As for Yang Qi, he should be an honorary guest of the Cao family. However, we all know the previous guests of the Cao family. This should be a newly recruited guest of the Cao family. I have never heard of this person."
The Cao family is a family of practitioners. Although he can represent the Cao family, his surname is not Cao. It is obvious that he is an honorary guest.
"It seems that the Cao family must have known about our recruitment of guest officials a long time ago." Chen Chen's eyes fixed and continued, "Under such circumstances, the Cao family still dared to participate in the war, and sent a guest official. This Yang Qi must be no simple person."
"Brother Chen, don't boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige. The guest officials our two families are recruiting are the strongest five-star Martial Emperors who meet the requirements in the nearby star fields. It is not easy for the Cao family to recruit similar strong people." Gu Yu said disapprovingly.
It's not that Gu Yu is arrogant, but the two cultivation forces have been prepared for a long time. The cultivators they recruited are basically the strongest cultivators who meet the requirements. Moreover, the two forces are sects, so the conditions they can offer are better. If it were the Cao family, even if they let the other party find the guest officials they recruited, they might not be able to come up with conditions that would make the other party excited. Gu Yu is confident enough in this regard.
"Brother Gu is right." Chen Chen nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "I'm just a little curious, who is this Yang Qi?"
"Everything will be clear on the day of the competition." Gu Yu said calmly.
…
Although Yang Qi was absolutely confident about this competition, after the list of participating practitioners was finalized, Yang Qi also began to prepare. He needed to at least participate in the competition in peak condition.
It was not known whether Cao Xin had been practicing all the time until the day after the list of practitioners participating in the war was finalized. She came to Yang Qi's palace again and asked about some confusions in practice. Yang Qi did not hide anything and answered Cao Xin one by one.
After this incident, Cao Xin did not appear again until the day before the competition began. Instead, Cao Min came to Yang Qi's palace.
"Cao Xin is breaking through to the peak of three-star martial king?"
Yang Qi also learned from Cao Min that Cao Xin was breaking through to the peak of the three-star martial king in the past few days. The breakthrough in cultivation can be made with the help of the formation that accelerates time, so even one day is enough for Cao Xin to break through to the peak of the three-star martial king. Although the increase brought by the breakthrough in cultivation may not be that great, it can increase the chances of winning, so the Cao family will naturally not give up.
Yang Qi recalled the last time he taught Cao Xin, and couldn't help but say, "Last time I saw Cao Xin, she did make some progress, but even if her cultivation level is raised to the peak of the three-star martial king, I'm afraid there is still some gap."
"For the competition at the Martial King level, our Cao family didn't have much hope." Cao Min smiled bitterly and continued, "As long as Brother Yang can win, our Cao family will be invincible in this competition. At worst, we can get the second place."
In the competition between the Martial Emperor level and the Martial King level, the ranking determines the share, and the proportions are different for each. As long as Yang Qi wins the Martial Emperor level competition, even if the Cao family ranks last in the Martial King level competition, the share he gets will be the second largest.
Yang Qi nodded. The Cao family had always placed their hopes on the Martial Emperor level. This was why they were so worried when they learned that the practitioners of the other two forces had recruited powerful honorary guests. Because if the Cao family ranked last in both levels of competition, then the share they got would be too small.
In fact, the Cao family agreed to the competition and distribute the members according to the ranking at the beginning because the Cao family had the confidence to win the Martial Emperor level competition. Otherwise, knowing that they would lose, the Cao family would not agree to the competition even under the pressure of the other two forces.
The day of the competition arrived as scheduled, and the location of the competition was in Yuecheng!
Before setting off, Yang Qi finally met Cao Xin. Her cultivation had already broken through to the peak of the three-star Martial King, and her aura was stable. It was not at all obvious that she had just broken through. It was obvious that she had been in the time acceleration formation for quite some time.
Because the competition was held in Yuecheng, Cao Rong, the host of the Cao family, naturally came in person, while the other two cultivation forces only sent high-level martial emperor elders. In addition, there was also a hall master from the Corpse Puppet Sect, a nine-star martial emperor cultivator, who was responsible for supervising this competition.
When Yang Qi and his companions arrived at the competition venue, a large number of practitioners had already gathered outside the arena. Although the reason for the competition among the three major forces was not announced to the public, the time and location of the competition were announced, so there were quite a few practitioners who came to watch.
"That old man is Elder Gu Yu from Qingfeng Valley, with the cultivation level of an early eight-star Martial Emperor. On both sides of him are the practitioners who are going into battle this time. And the man in brocade clothes over there is Elder Chen Chen from Yunhai Palace, with the cultivation level of a late seven-star Martial Emperor." Cao Min introduced through voice transmission.
Yang Qi knew about the practitioners from the two major forces fighting, but he had never seen them with his own eyes, so he couldn't tell which was Qingfeng Valley and which was Yunhai Palace.
Yang Qi looked at the two Five-Star Martial Emperor level practitioners not far away, and thought to himself, "Are those two the two Five-Star Martial Emperors participating in this competition?" (To be continued)
