After the fight, Gu Qingfeng returned to his dormitory and began to practice.
Because he is still on vacation, he has not returned to the Demon Suppression Prison, and he is not in a hurry to go back.
To be honest, after seeing the Master of Bones, Gu Qingfeng really looked down on the demons on the first level of the Demon Suppression Prison, except that he missed the little corpse spirit a little.
His Vajra Body has reached the critical point and he is only one step away from advancing again.
However, relying on his current physical defense, Gu Qingfeng did not think that there would be any demon in the first level of the Demon Suppression Prison that could break his defense and thus increase his defense.
It would be better to wait until you become a yellow-level demon slayer and then go to the second floor for a stroll.
Moreover, the system clearly stated that once one reaches the inner energy realm, any attack from demons would increase one's inner energy cultivation, so Gu Qingfeng was full of energy at this moment!
The third level of Qi Gathering! Get down from under me... No, break it for me!
Time does not exist in cultivation. In the blink of an eye, three hours had passed.
Gu Qingfeng felt the vital energy in his body growing again, which was as thick as a hair, and fell into deep thought.
He couldn't help but think of the story that the senior who introduced him to the Demon Suppression Division told him when he first joined the Demon Suppression Division.
A long time ago, there lived a pair of twins. They both started practicing martial arts at the same time, and their master was the same person. Logically, with the same qualifications, the same skills, and the same master, the two should have practiced at the same speed, but this was not the case.
The elder brother practiced for eight hours every day, and the younger brother practiced for seven hours every day, but the younger brother's practice speed was faster than that of his elder brother.
The elder brother couldn't help but feel puzzled, so he went to ask the master. The master told him that apart from eating and sleeping, he practiced every day. You must know that practice requires a combination of work and rest. Practicing hard will lead to physical fatigue, thus reducing the efficiency of practice.
Your brother practices for seven hours every day, and uses the remaining hour to relax, play chess, grow flowers, etc.
This one hour of rest is enough for him to adjust his body and mind, and his practice efficiency remains high, so you are not as good as him.
This is the famous story in the cultivation world about 7+1 being greater than 8.
The meaning is to combine work and rest.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingfeng fell asleep.
Let’s start scientific practice with myself.
......
The next day.
Gu Qingfeng participated in the competition again.
"Gu Qingfeng, if you have the guts, why don't you use your spiritual weapons? What's the point of relying on the power of weapons!"
Gu Qingfeng looked at his shouting opponent and slowly drew out the Wooden King Sword.
"That's wrong. Weapons are also part of strength. Will you not use weapons when facing monsters in the future? Will you only use your bare hands?"
"You are talking nonsense. How can a duel be the same as facing a demon?"
"Why is it different? What is the purpose of the competition? Isn't it to select the stronger person to be the Yellow Rank Demon Slayer so that he can better deal with the demons?"
"Today I will let you win without using any weapons. What will you do if you encounter a demon in the future? Will the demon let you win?"
"You...you...you are making excuses!"
"My dear brother, listen to my advice. The competition is too complicated and you can't control it. Be good and step down on your own."
"Gu Qingfeng, you bastard. You won unfairly. Just wait for me." The man cursed and jumped off the stage.
"The winner is Gu Qingfeng." The deacon said expressionlessly.
......
The next day.
"Gu Qingfeng! Let's make a deal. You don't need spiritual weapons, and I won't rely on my cultivation to bully you. I will suppress my cultivation to the third level of Qi Gathering, and we can have a fair fight. How about that?"
"Not very good."
"Okay! Gu Qingfeng, you shameless villain, I'll fuck you!" The man cursed and left the stage.
"Congratulations, Gu Qingfeng, for entering the top four. The final will be tomorrow." The deacon said expressionlessly.
"Hahaha, congratulations to you all."
......
The next day, before the game started.
A group of people went to find He Fenghua, the Xuan-level demon slayer.
"Master He, please take care of Gu Qingfeng."
"Master He, this shameless villain Gu Qingfeng is blatantly cheating!"
"Yes, yes. If we win by relying on spiritual weapons, then what is the meaning of this competition?"
"That's right. With a Xuan-level spiritual weapon in hand, even if you tie a dog to the stage, you can win!"
He Fenghua looked at the group of people and said thoughtfully, "Gu Qingfeng has indeed gone too far. I will seek the opinions of the referees on this matter and give you a reply then."
"Thank you, Master He."
"I thank Lord He for upholding justice."
After He Fenghua sent this group of people away, he called his confidant over and whispered a few words in his ear.
"Do you know what to do?"
"Yes, I understand."
......
Soon, He Fenghua's confidant found Gu Qingfeng and told him about the joint boycott of him.
"Brother Gu, let's be frank. Lord He said that you have indeed caused public outrage this time, but if you are willing to sell the Wood King Sword to Lord He, Lord He will allow you to continue using the Wood King Sword. After you obtain the position of Yellow Rank Demon Slayer, you can give the Wood King Sword to Lord He.
Brother Gu, you should think about it carefully. As long as you agree to sell the Wooden King Sword, you will not only get a large sum of money, but also the position of a Yellow-rank Demon Slayer, and even the appreciation of Lord He.
But if you disagree, you will be prohibited from using the Wooden King Sword during the competition, and you will stop at the top four. You will not have the chance to become a Yellow Rank Demon Slayer, and you will also displease Lord He.
Brother Gu, please decide for yourself what is more important. "
To be honest, this kind of coercion and inducement is very tempting. If Gu Qingfeng's strength is really at the third level of Qi Gathering, then he might agree.
But unfortunately, Gu Qingfeng is not.
Even without the Wooden King Sword, he could easily get first place.
Moreover, the Wood King Sword is not an ordinary low-grade Xuan-level spiritual weapon.
"Please go back and tell Lord He that the Wooden King Sword is an heirloom and cannot be bought or sold."
The man looked at Gu Qingfeng deeply, as if he was looking at a fool who didn't know what was good for him, and then left.
......
"In the next match, Gu Qingfeng will compete with Hu Banqing, who will compete with him."
As Gu Qingfeng and Hu Banqing came on stage, there was a lot of discussion in the audience.
"Alas, it's a pity for Hu Banqing. He was originally one of the candidates with the greatest hope of taking first place. With his ninth-level Qi Condensation cultivation, he was able to kill the Iron Armored Corpse. This strength is already infinitely close to the Inner Qi realm, and can be said to be half a step into the Inner Qi realm."
"Yeah, but who made him meet Gu Qingfeng?"
"The competition begins."
The deacon gave the order.
"Wait a moment!"
Hu Banqing suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of everyone present.
Hu Banqing said in a clear voice: "Master He, judges, I have something to say."
"speak."
He Fenghua looked at Hu Banqing calmly, with no expression showing any joy or anger.
"Thank you, sir."
After getting He Fenghua's permission, Hu Banqing suddenly turned around, pointed at Gu Qingfeng and said, "I want to say that Gu Qingfeng, relying on the advantage of his spiritual weapon, blatantly exploited loopholes in the competition rules and openly cheated, which is despicable. This competition was originally intended to select the strongest and most convincing person to serve as a yellow-level demon slayer.
But Gu Qingfeng, apart from his spiritual weapon, has no real strength at all. He is also shameless and cannot win the support of others.
Therefore, I would like to ask Lord He and the judges to cancel Gu Qingfeng's qualification to use spiritual weapons! Make the competition fair!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
A person who had been arranged in advance suddenly shouted in the crowd: "Good! Well said! I support you!"
"Yes! That's a great point. I've disliked Gu Qingfeng for a long time!"
"Disqualified from using spiritual weapons!"
“Disqualified!”
For a moment, everyone was excited.
