Chapter 42: The leader, Xie Liuyin!
It was still the same rules as before, except that this time a lot of Foundation Establishment disciples were deployed to guard the formation.
Once there is any unusual movement in the trial formation, these disciples will step in to deal with it immediately and will never affect the competition of their fellow junior brothers and sisters.
The trial was restarted, and Xie Mingzhu was undoubtedly the happiest one.
Last time, Xie Liuyin snatched away all her demon cores. At the end of the competition, she only got two pitiful demon cores.
If she were ranked according to that score, she would probably be at the bottom.
Fortunately, there were monsters causing trouble, so the previous competitions no longer counted.
Xie Mingzhu was both happy and regretful.
It’s a pity that Xie Liuyin was lucky enough to survive the claws of a Foundation Establishment Stage monster.
But it doesn't matter, there is still a long way to go. I will keep Xie Liuyin for now and help me breed a flawless golden elixir.
Xie Mingzhu had a beautiful idea and planned to use the previous method to get others to give her the demon core just by talking.
But she will be more careful this time so as not to be targeted by Xie Liuyin.
However, what Xie Mingzhu did not expect was that everything she had done before was clearly seen by the sect master and the elders.
After the disciples who gave her the demon core left the formation, they were grabbed by the ears by their master and taken away to be taught a lesson.
Especially the one at the beginning, who gave almost half of the demon cores to Xie Mingzhu's disciple, and was beaten by his master.
After being taught a lesson by their respective masters, these disciples no longer dared to be kind in such an important competition.
So when Xie Mingzhu met a few familiar people and wanted to use the same trick again, those people saw her from a distance and ran faster than rabbits, as if they were afraid of being pestered by her.
When had Xie Mingzhu ever been so despised in her past or present life?
She was so angry that she had to ask others for help.
But these new disciples already knew about Xie Mingzhu's previous plan and ignored her.
Xie Mingzhu tried several times but failed to get the monster core she wanted. Instead, someone stole her monster core bag.
She now completely gave up the idea of relying on anyone's help, and angrily prepared to hunt the monster herself.
But Xie Mingzhu forgot that she was no longer the goddess in her previous life who used Xie Liuyin's golden elixir to replenish her damaged spiritual body.
Her talent was originally inferior to that of her elder sister. After becoming Ye Chaoyun's disciple, she was always lazy and refused to practice well.
If it were another master, he would perhaps teach his disciples to practice diligently, but Ye Chaoyun didn't know what was going on. As a master, he was actually being controlled by his own disciple.
Not to mention urging Xie Mingzhu to practice, whenever this disciple complained, he would coax him for a long time, so naturally he would forget about practicing or not.
With Xie Mingzhu's level of cultivation, she was able to survive until the third round because she was lucky. The opponents she met before either had lower levels of cultivation than her or had accidents.
This time, Xie Mingzhu landed in a trial formation filled with monsters and plants. It didn't take long for her to run into a powerful monster and was forced to crush the jade bead and escape from the formation.
What made Xie Mingzhu extremely angry was that this time she didn't get any demon core, and her result was even worse than the previous time.
Xie Mingzhu encountered obstacles everywhere, but Xie Liuyin was doing very well.
No one deliberately interfered, and Xie Liuyin was in very good condition. She almost rushed all the way from the formation entrance into the depths of the dense forest, and almost killed her way through the Qi training area.
All the monsters and plants she met on the way were not enough for her to defeat. In the end, whenever they smelled the blood coming from her, the monsters would flee in all directions, and the plants would ruthlessly pull out their roots and make room for her.
Fortunately, Xie Liuyin had accumulated enough demon cores in the early stage, otherwise she would have missed the top spot.
This competition made Xie Liuyin's name spread throughout the Qingxiao Sect. Both the outer disciples and the direct disciples remembered that Grandmaster Xianyue had accepted a terrifying sword-cultivating disciple.
Even the more outstanding ones among this batch of new disciples have been given titles by their senior brothers and sisters.
After the competition, Xie Liuyin's victory was a foregone conclusion.
The top three disciples were Xie Liuyin, Hua Lingxue and Xu Wuyin. There was also a highly regarded disciple with single fire spiritual root named Xiao Chi, but he only ranked fifth in the end.
The fourth one was taken by a seemingly inconspicuous female disciple. Xie Liuyin later found out that the other party was named Yue Qingya, and was the disciple-granddaughter of the eighth elder Du Luan.
By the way, because Qin Tian was removed from the position of elder, Miaoyu Zhenjun was promoted to the new sixth elder.
With his qualifications and cultivation, he should have been promoted to elder long ago, but the position of elder was not vacant. In addition, the leader of Kunshan Sect liked his young disciple Ye Chaoyun more, so he promoted him to the tenth elder in advance.
That's why Miaoyu was delayed and only now got the position she deserved.
With Miaoyu taking over Chiyan Peak, the situation of Qin Tian's disciples became increasingly worse.
Naturally, no one cared about Feng Yelei, who had been sent to Frost Blade and Wind Sword Cliff early on.
What the disciples are most concerned about now is when the leader of the new disciples, Xie Liuyin, will enter the Sword Washing Pool to look for the sword!
Every Qingxiao Sect disciple knows the specialness of the Sword Washing Pool, but out of a hundred people who have heard of this place, not even one can go in and take a walk around it.
There were ten people who were qualified to enter the sword-washing pool, but not one of them could successfully pull out a sword from it.
According to the "Sect Records", the last person to bring out a magic sword from the Sword Washing Pool was Xie Liuyin's master Xianyue!
After learning about this from Hua Lingxue, Xie Liuyin hurried to find his master to ask about the situation: "Master, you really got a sword from the sword washing pool, where is the sword, can you let me take a look?"
Xianyue was caught off guard when asked about this, and the expression on her face slowly changed.
He didn't look angry, but rather sad and nostalgic.
After a while, Xianyue finally spoke: "Where is my sword? You will know it later. Now you should care about where your sword is."
The Yinxue Sword was taken back by Xianyue long after Xie Liuyin won the first place.
He moved so fast, as if he was worried that Xie Liuyin would betray his sword.
Xie Liuyin said to himself, "I calmed down a little, and then asked, "What did Master go through when he went to look for the sword?"
"It didn't happen much. I just jumped into the Sword Washing Pool. At first glance, I saw the sword that I liked and that I also liked. I pulled it out, and we made a contract...that's it." Xianyue yawned, as if he didn't want to say more.
Xie Liuyin vaguely felt that this person was hiding something from him, but recalling the loneliness in Xianyue's eyes when he mentioned his natal sword, Xie Liuyin did not continue to ask.
She always knew what happened to Xianyue, as if it was related to a big secret.
For this reason, Xie Liuyin was willing to wait a little longer.
Before learning the secret that Xianyue had deliberately hidden, Xie Liuyin had to receive his own natal sword first.
Two days later, Kunshan Sect Master's disciple Chang Yu personally brought Xie Liuyin a pass that allowed him to enter the Sword Washing Pool.
Xie Liuyin changed into clothes that were convenient for swimming and headed straight for Qingxiao Sect's Liuyun Island.
