Inside the sword tower, Huang Zongming looked at Yang Qi fighting with the puppet, and nodded with a smile.
"You have talent and potential, and you know when to fight. It's worth it for me to lower my dignity and ask for a favor on your behalf." Huang Zongming looked pleased.
On the path of cultivation, talent, potential and even chance are certainly important, but all cultivators who can achieve great success are those who have great perseverance and willpower. In the millions of years of history of Zichen Continent, there have been countless geniuses, and even monsters like Xiao Xuantian are numerous. But there are very few who can become martial kings, and all of these people are those who have great perseverance and willpower!
After holding on for a while, Yang Qi's injuries worsened and he had no choice but to leave the Sword Tower. After fighting for dozens of breaths, he also had some understanding of the strength of the puppet on the sixth floor of the Sword Tower.
After passing the fifth floor of the Sword Tower, Yang Qi’s sect token had two thousand more points, but he didn’t take the two thousand points to heart. He could still tell the difference between the two thousand points and the ancient combat body.
Yang Qi was leaving the Sword Tower and preparing to go back. When he passed by the arena, he saw a familiar figure.
"Bai Bing!"
As Sun Bo and Luo Zhenyue left one after another, Bai Bing unexpectedly became the first person in Xuanjian Peak. Judging from her appearance, she should be here to enter the fifth floor of the Sword Tower.
"Yang Qi." Bai Bing raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect to meet Yang Qi here, but when she felt the slightly unstable aura from Yang Qi, her expression changed slightly.
Although Yang Qi's cultivation had broken through to the late three-star martial arts master level, the fighting power that Yang Qi displayed when he fought with Sun Bo was still clearly visible. Even if his cultivation had broken through, with Yang Qi's strength, he would not be injured when facing a fifth-level puppet!
But Yang Qi's current situation showed that he was obviously injured. There was only one possibility for Yang Qi to be injured, and that was to face the puppet on the sixth floor of the Sword Tower.
"You have already passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower?" Bai Bing asked in surprise.
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly. This was not a secret. When Yang Qi defeated Sun Bo, many people thought that Yang Qi could pass the fifth floor of the Sword Tower, but at that time he had not reached the one-month deadline and could not pass the tower again.
Now that his cultivation has improved, it is not difficult to understand if he can break through the fifth floor of the Sword Tower!
Although she had guessed it long ago, but when she saw Yang Qi nodded, Bai Bing's face still showed a trace of unnaturalness. She is now the number one person in Xuanjian Peak, but she could not get through the fifth floor of the Sword Tower. Instead, Yang Qi got through the fifth floor of the Sword Tower before her!
"Congratulations." Bai Bing looked at Yang Qi with a complicated expression.
At first, she competed with Luo Zhenyue and Sun Bo, but Sun Bo had to leave early because he lost the qualification to enter the tower. Luo Zhenyue passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower before her and also left, leaving her alone. She thought she could pass the fifth floor of the Sword Tower before Yang Qi, but she was still one step late!
"Senior Sister Bai, goodbye." Yang Qi bowed slightly to Bai Bing, and then disappeared at the end of the arena.
"This time, I will succeed too!" A gleam of light flashed in Bai Bing's eyes, and he walked towards the sword tower with a determined look.
After returning to his residence, Yang Qi began to retreat. After all, he didn't have much time left. After seeing the strength of the puppet on the sixth floor of the Sword Tower, Yang Qi was very clear about the gap between the two. It would not be easy to break through the sixth floor of the Sword Tower.
When Yang Qi was in seclusion, Bai Bing passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower. As Bai Bing left Xuanjian Peak, another piece of news spread in Xuanjian Peak: Yang Qi passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower! There were even practitioners who personally confirmed with Elder Huang when they were breaking through the tower that Yang Qi had indeed passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower!
As the news spread, the entire Xuanjian Peak was in an uproar. A three-star martial arts late-stage cultivator had left behind their brothers who had joined the sect a year or two earlier! Today, Yang Qi has become the true number one in Xuanjian Peak, the only cultivator who has passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower, and the number one in the same realm!
…
Yuan Jianfeng!
In a remote palace, Sun Bo was the first to learn from the message sent by the disciples of Xuanjian Peak that Yang Qi, who was in the late Three Star Martial Sect, had passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower!
"Boom~"
With a loud bang, the tables and chairs made of Tianxiang wood in the hall turned into powder under Sun Bo's angry palm.
"Yang Qi!" Sun Bo said coldly with a ferocious look on his face, "You ruined my chance, I won't just let it go."
"Hmph~"
At this moment, a light snort sounded in the hall.
"Cousin." Looking at the person coming, Sun Bo's expression changed slightly.
"It's bad enough that you're not as talented as others, but you're still complaining here after losing. No wonder you're no match for Yang Qi!" The man looked at Sun Bo and smiled coldly.
"I was too careless, otherwise that kid wouldn't be..." Sun Bo was about to explain.
The man glared at Sun Bo and said coldly, "Shut up. You still don't know how to reflect on yourself. Yang Qi was able to pass the fifth floor of the Sword Tower in just a few months. His talent and potential are not at the same level as yours. If he is willing, even a high-level martial arts master would be tempted and consider taking him as a disciple!"
Hearing this, Sun Bo blushed and said dejectedly, "I know I was wrong."
Although he was unwilling to admit it, he knew that Yang Qi was able to pass the fifth floor of the Sword Tower in such a short time, and his talent and potential were not at the same level as his. It was ridiculous that he had ridiculed the other party as a waste. In comparison, he was the real waste, even Luo Zhenyue and Bai Bing were better than him!
"On the path of cultivation, strength is the foundation. Your little tricks are in vain in the face of absolute strength." The man said coldly.
"I understand." Sun Bo nodded slightly, not daring to refute the man's words.
"Now that you have left Xuanjian Peak, you should practice hard. I have contacted a martial arts master for you. If you pass his apprenticeship test, you can become his disciple." The man looked at Sun Bo and said lightly.
"His strength..." Sun Bo asked.
"Do you think you still have the right to choose now?" The man smiled coldly.
Sun Bo's expression changed slightly, but he was unable to refute. He hadn't even passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower. He was not even qualified to accept the test of becoming an apprentice to some elders who openly accepted disciples.
Those martial masters who do not openly accept disciples are either too weak to compete with other powerful martial masters for talented disciples if they do so, or they are too powerful to accept disciples or not, which is entirely up to their own mind.
Sun Bo naturally didn't dare to think about the latter. Even if he passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower, the elders might not look down on him. His only chance was those elders who were not strong. Although they were not strong, they were martial masters after all, which was better than him practicing alone. In this matter, he had no right to choose at all.
"It's good that you understand. Even the test from this Martial Lord is not easy. I'm giving you a chance for the sake of my master. I hope you seize it." The man said indifferently.
"I will do my best." Sun Bo nodded slightly. At the same time, he knew that if the man in front of him was not of the same clan as him, he would never help him to contact others. A cultivator like him who had not even passed the fifth floor of the Sword Tower was destined to be just an ordinary cultivator of the Tianjian Sect. (To be continued)
