Qi Yu was praised to the skies by his fellow disciples, but Bao Rongtao, who was quickly defeated in the secret realm, did not receive such good treatment.
He was brought out by Venerable Xiu Yu from the sect and thrown back to where he had been standing in the Martial Arts Hall.
Bao Rongtao coughed a few times. Because Qi Yu hadn't used much force, only kicking him off the cliff from the mountaintop, he wasn't seriously injured.
"Senior Brother Bao, it's a pity you've suffered another defeat this time..."
"I didn't even see what kind of tricks Yu Shengyan had up her sleeve. It was over in just a few rounds. It's really..."
"Senior Brother Bao is always ranked last in the sect's competitions. Letting him fight against that Flying Star Sect member... sigh! We mustn't let them think that all the Yunyang Sect members are of this level..."
The people next to Bao Rongtao did not help him up from the ground. Instead, they took two steps away and began to whisper among themselves.
He hung his head, not looking at the expressions of his junior brothers and sisters beside him, feeling utterly defeated.
The sect has strict rules and values strength above all else. Although he was lucky enough to reach the Golden Core stage, he was always at the bottom of the rankings in the sect, so it's no wonder that others criticize him like this.
He's gotten used to it.
Suddenly, the chatter around me stopped abruptly.
A slender, white hand with distinct knuckles was extended in front of him.
"Fellow Daoist Bao, why are you spacing out again? Isn't it cold sitting on the ground?"
Bao Rongtao suddenly looked up.
Qi Yu shook her hand again, and seeing that he was still standing there dumbfounded, she reached out and pulled him up.
She smiled, patted Bao Rongtao's slightly disheveled clothes, and glanced discreetly at the group of people beside her who were giving her unfriendly looks.
"Fellow Daoist Bao, so be it if you lose. If you ask me, there aren't many people in your sect who are at the same level as me and can beat me."
Qi Yu smiled and glanced at the Yunyang Sect disciples around him.
"Hmm... Some Foundation Establishment cultivators, let alone be able to beat me, even Fellow Daoist Bao, they might not be able to beat..."
"And what about me?"
The Foundation Establishment stage cultivators who were being watched by her, who had just ridiculed Bao Rongtao's Yunyang Sect disciples, turned pale and red-faced.
However, this person was a disciple personally taught by the sect leader of the Flying Star Sect, while they were just ordinary disciples of the Cloud Sun Sect, so it was impossible for them to directly retort.
So they could only suppress their anger and watch as the girl strolled over, pulled Bao Rongtao aside, said a few sarcastic remarks to them, and then casually left.
That's incredibly arrogant!
Only after Qi Yu returned to the Flying Star Sect's area did they angrily begin to unleash their attacks.
"What does 'Jade Smoke' mean?! We're talking about people in our sect, not her. What's she doing here showing off?!"
"This is outrageous! She even said that there are few people in our sect who can beat her. She only defeated one of the worst disciples in our sect, yet she dares to spout such nonsense?!"
"Senior Brother Lin! Did you hear that?! If you get matched with her later, you must beat her to a pulp!"
"Yes, so that she knows why our Yunyang Sect ranks first in the cultivation world!"
The Yunyang Sect disciple, who was called Senior Brother Lin and always had a smile on his face, had a calm expression. Although he had also been standing here, he had become the target of Qi Yu's barrage.
However, he did not participate in the group that belittled Bao Rongtao, so he did not feel offended.
only……
He watched the girl's departing figure, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes.
He is indeed a formidable opponent.
He glanced down at the jade pendant, ignored the junior brothers and sisters who were clamoring to teach Yu Shengyan a lesson, and left without looking back.
Bao Rongtao stood there, a few inexplicable feelings welling up in his heart.
...
Not far away, the burly Yin Hongwei, surrounded by several followers, watched Qi Yu's series of actions with disbelief in his eyes.
Yu Shengyan has actually reached the early stage of the Golden Core realm?!
How is that possible?!
He had just thought that Yunyang Sect had made a mistake in recording cultivation levels, writing Foundation Establishment as Golden Core, and was waiting to see Yu Shengyan get utterly crushed!
However, after Yu Shengyan and the Yunyang Sect disciple named Bao Rongtao entered the secret realm and began fighting, he finally understood...
I was so wrong!
Yu Shengyan is not only a Golden Core cultivator, but also a powerful figure who can defeat opponents of the same realm effortlessly!
Thinking about what he had done to Yu Shengyan before, and how he had ridiculed and mocked her, he wished he could dig three feet into the ground and bury himself!
What to do, what to do?
If Yu Shengyan held a grudge, killing him would be an easy task!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel remorse for his impulsiveness earlier.
We need to think of a way...
As time passed, cultivators continued to finish their battles and leave the secret realm.
Venerable Yangxi was still standing in front of the Martial Arts Hall, holding something in his hand, looking at something.
Suddenly, he threw the object in his hand into the air.
Everyone stopped their discussion and looked in that direction.
The object suddenly transformed into something resembling a water mirror, facing the water mirror that displayed the scene of the secret realm from afar.
The nameplate lists the names of the various sects participating in this sect competition, and below each sect's name are the names of the disciples they brought.
At this point, some disciples already had numbers added next to their names.
Next to the sect's name is the total score of these disciples.
Venerable Yangxi smiled and said, "In order to let all fellow Daoists see the scores of the competition more intuitively, I have written the scores of all fellow Daoists and the scores of each fellow Daoist's sect on this leaderboard."
"The leaderboard will track everyone's points in real time and rank them accordingly."
He waved his hand, and a new column, "Top 100 in Competition Points," was added to the leaderboard.
Since the competition has only just begun, even the first place winner only receives one point.
And coincidentally, next to the first place winner, the three large characters "Yu Sheng Yan" were written.
Qi Yu raised an eyebrow, not expecting that the Yunyang Sect would actually use this random method.
Their Yunyang Sect also had disciples who had earned points after the competition, but they were all ranked below her.
Venerable Yangxi added:
"After each competition, the Secret Realm will close for a short period of time to clean up the battlefield. After cleaning, it will continue to draw up competitors. In order to allow as many friends as possible to participate, the Secret Realm will not stop day and night."
"If any of you young friends need to rest, you may choose to refuse the competition."
At this moment, streaks of white light flashed into the Martial Arts Hall.
Several powerful cultivators appeared, and some disciples participating in the competition greeted them respectfully in low voices.
"Greetings, Elder!"
"Venerable One!"
Good morning, fairy!
...
After nodding in response, the group approached Venerable Yangxi.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Venerable Yangxi led them to a seat in the Martial Arts Hall.
