On the main peak, there were a large number of disciples participating in the battle for the title of true disciple, densely packed together like ants.
At this time, some of the monks closed their eyes to rest and continued to communicate with the spiritual power of the flying sword.
There were also familiar people who came to reminisce and chat. They had been in the same school for a long time and would see each other every day.
Lin Xiang had only been a disciple for a short time, and he was not good at socializing. He had not even contacted his senior brothers and sisters near the Taixuan Sword Peak courtyard, let alone his fellow disciples on other sword peaks.
He stood quietly in front of the arena and quietly released the detection skill to the arena made of white jade.
As expected!
Since the main peak has space restrictions, these arenas have also been imposed with space restrictions, and are definitely not as small as they look.
From the outside, the arena looked like a 7x7 square, small enough for only two disciples to engage in direct combat.
But in fact, the internal space must be very large, only in this way can the characteristics of sword cultivators' spiritual movement and combat be fully utilized.
No sword cultivator simply stands there and outputs damage.
"Senior Brother Lin! Long time no see, you have indeed reached the Foundation Establishment stage!"
Lin Xiang turned his head and found that the voice was indeed from Xu Man.
Xu Man entered the Qingwei Sword Sect with him, but at that time he had already reached the great perfection of the Qi Refining Stage and looked old and mature.
Lin Xiang knew he was actually leveling up using player experience points, which was much faster than normal cultivation. But Xu Man's speed was surprisingly not much slower than his own. He had also reached Foundation Establishment, and was now at level 21!
The other party is a true genius!
"Junior Brother Xu, congratulations." Lin Xiang was too lazy to argue with him about the address. Since the other party insisted on calling him that, he just let him do it.
"I knew that Senior Brother had amazing comprehension and excellent spiritual roots. I hope we can have a chance to spar in the ring. I haven't seen Senior Brother take action yet."
Xu Man is a bit of a battle maniac. He is rubbing his hands and can't wait to rush into the battle.
Lin Xiang also wanted to measure how strong this friend, who came from a family of cultivators and joined a top sect, was, and use the other party as a benchmark to explore his own strength.
He pointed to the ring number 49 and said, "I'll be the first one, what about you?"
"My fifteenth match, I'm here too." Xu Man gripped the hilt of the long sword hanging at his waist and replied, "It seems we need to win several matches in a row before we can meet. I hope there will be a chance."
"Let's hope so. Let's see who falls behind first."
Lin Xiang looked around and quietly swept his spiritual sense over his fellow disciples. Most of the cultivators did not react, only a few of them felt something in their hearts or swords and looked around.
The cultivators with a clear sword heart are very sensitive to the spiritual consciousness around them, but the strength of their spiritual consciousness cannot be compared with Lin Xiang's. Even higher-level cultivators may not be stronger than him in this regard.
In comparison, Xu Man understood more about the surrounding situation. "Our new disciples are basically arranged in Arena 49, and then the seeded contestants are distributed among the different arenas, so as not to let them fight in the first two rounds. I have heard that the cultivators of Qingwei Sword Sect are very powerful. If they are put outside, they can often fight two or even ten people at once!"
Because of the existence of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, the disciples of the Qingwei Sword Sect have the opportunity to experience battle every month.
Moreover, these battles were not just one or two, but dozens or even hundreds of them, and all kinds of methods were used, including head-on duels, hidden assassinations, traps, group attacks, and other methods, which greatly trained the disciples' abilities.
The sword skills honed in life and death situations are extraordinary.
"By the way, do you know how many places there are for true disciples this time?" Lin Xiang asked. His focus has always been on Dongshan Village, and he doesn't know much about Qingwei Sword Sect.
"There are ten of us in total. The true disciples suffered heavy losses earlier. It's said that several of them were killed in the battle with the demons of Northern Juluzhou. The current war with Da Gan is also to seize more resources. After all, the demons are likely to make a comeback with the help of the gray fog."
Since true disciples enjoy the sect’s welfare benefits, they must risk their lives for the sect.
The concepts of demon race and demon beast are different.
The demon race refers to a race that possesses intelligence that is no less than that of humans. One can transform into a human form, while the other can transform into a beast form.
Just like the three tree demons at Lin Xiang's blessed land, they were somewhere between demons and demon beasts. They had already developed human-like intelligence and would eventually transform. The iron-eating beasts were still naive and lacked sufficient intelligence, making it impossible for them to transform. They were pure demon beasts.
The two are closely related.
Originally, the demons had been driven by human cultivators to the Northern Continent, the Western Continent, and the four seas of the east, south, west, and north. In addition, there were demon settlements like the Ten Thousand Mountains in the Southern Continent and the Eastern Continent.
However, a gray fog descended upon the sky, and many gods in heaven lost contact. The demons and monsters grew rapidly, pressing the human race's habitat step by step.
Because of the gray fog that fell at night, even the human territories in the Southern Continent and the Eastern Continent were compressed into villages and towns with sacrificial spirits.
Lin Xiang didn't expect that the loss rate of Qingwei Sword Sect's true disciples was so high.
He actually hoped that these sects would focus on the demons, monsters and evil spirits instead of fighting for each other's territory.
After all, the areas that were seized were vast and uninhabited, and it was too difficult to re-establish humanitarian order.
"Look, look, the referees are coming!"
The crowd was in an uproar because dozens of high-level monks appeared above the arena, each of them at the elder level.
The battle here involves real swords and real weapons, so casualties are inevitable.
In order to avoid death or to determine victory or defeat in a matter of millimeters, an expert is needed.
Lin Xiang used detection skills to check the opponent, and found that the cultivator who was standing on the stage in front of him was in the God Transformation Stage.
"Taixuan Sword Peak's Lin Han (the protagonist's pseudonym) is battling Tianbei Peak's Xiao Shi. If he fails to enter the ring within one stick of incense, he will be deemed to have automatically forfeited."
"I'm going." Lin Xiang said to Xu Man beside him, then took out his identity jade card and walked quickly towards the arena.
Xu Man whispered, "Brother Lin, come on, let's try to reunite!"
There are thousands of disciples and only forty-nine arenas, so every arena is sure to attract a lot of attention.
Lin Xiang here didn't know the rules and chose the most honest way of walking, and didn't look like a master at all.
There are also some gossipers among sword cultivators, but there are also many people who do not look down on them.
"You dare to choose Taixuan Sword Peak, so you must have a very good understanding, right?"
"Everyone who comes out of Taixuan Sword Peak is very powerful."
"He looks unfamiliar, and he's from the last arena. He must be a new disciple who just joined this year."
"He's already at the Foundation Establishment stage right after entering the sect, and his aura isn't frivolous at all. It seems his foundation is very solid."
"I don't know how strong he is and whether he can make it to the next round."
"There are many hard-working people at Tianbei Peak, and Xiao Shi has never heard of them. They should not be strong."
"They're not even in the top 1,000 odds."
Since it is a battle for the position of true disciple, those who are interested in it will definitely not miss this opportunity.
All the famous masters in each peak have been listed in advance. In the past, true disciples were basically born among the ranks of masters, but occasionally there would be dark horses breaking in.
At the moment, Lin Xiang and Xiao Shi are obviously not masters. As for whether they are dark horses, we will have to wait and see in action.
"Lin Han from Taixuan Sword Peak."
"Xiao Shi from Tianbei Peak."
After Lin Xiang entered the ring, he found that the area was very large, about the size of ten football fields, and both sides could perform without any restrictions.
While the two men were greeting each other with fists clasped, he detected his opponent's strength.
[Xiao Shi: lv. 24, a disciple of the Qingwei Sword Sect's Tianbei Peak, skilled in using left-handed swords.]
Although he said that he was good at using the sword in his left hand, Xiao Shi was holding the sword in his right hand at this time, perhaps intending to surprise the enemy when the battle was in full swing.
The disciples of Tianbei Peak are well-known in the entire world of cultivation because they are famous for their skills.
Almost every disciple pushes his body to the limit. Today you swing the sword ten thousand times, tomorrow I will swing the sword twelve thousand times.
In order to avoid any further complications, Lin Xiang did not engage in close combat with the opponent. Instead, he controlled the long sword transformed from the Golden Spirit Sword Pill and performed the Pure Yang Sword Technique.
Unlike Lin Xiang, although Xiao Shi could also control a flying sword, he chose to hold the sword in his hand. He lightly used the sword to deflect the flying Golden Spirit Sword Ball like an antelope hanging on a horn, and then used his body skills to quickly attack Lin Xiang. He chose to fight in close combat!
"Come on, Senior Brother Xiao!"
"Senior Brother Xiao should have no problem dealing with the new disciple. He's luring the enemy deeper, and he hasn't even used half of his strength."
"The junior brother from Taixuan Peak seems a bit reckless."
"The winner should be clear."
The cultivators nearby could more or less see that Lin Xiang was at a disadvantage. His cultivation was not as good as others, and his swordsmanship seemed rather rigid, lacking the agility of someone who was one with the sword.
The opponent wanted to fight in close combat, and Lin Xiang also had the same intention.
He took out the Dragon-Slaying Sword, a top-grade magical weapon, from his space ring and multitasked while performing his moves!
Having a game panel is so willful. The sword energy emitted by the Golden Spirit Sword Pill was rumbling, forcing Xiao Shi to constantly change his route.
Suddenly, Lin Xiang used the Gold Element Extinction Sword among the Five Elements Extinction Swords. The sword light flashed and the sword energy was like a thread, directly attacking Xiao Shi all over the sky.
Faced with the overwhelming attack, Xiao Shi had to stop and use defensive sword skills to protect himself.
The Jin Xing Extinction Sword directly hit the shield formed by his sword technique, and actually knocked him back several steps!
"Is Junior Brother Lin pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger? He actually used a move from the Extinction Divine Sword, and his spiritual power is so powerful and abundant..."
Xiao Shi didn't expect that he would be defeated by a cultivator of a lower level.
It feels so good to overwhelm others with force!
Seeing the Jin Xing Extinction Sword breaking through the opponent's defense, Lin Xiang rushed forward and used the Immortal's Guidance from the Taixuan Sword Sutra to knock away the long sword in the opponent's hand, leaving him no time to switch to his left hand.
Then the sword ball stopped three inches between Xiao Shi's eyebrows. The sword energy was contained but not revealed, and the sharp aura seemed to break his skin.
"Taixuan Sword Peak Lin Han wins!"
"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother." Lin Xiang bowed, turned around with a satisfied smile on his face and flew out of the ring.
"No, no, Junior Brother, your spiritual energy is abundant and solid, and you can do two things at the same time. Let's learn from each other again when we have the chance."
Xiao Shi just felt a serious threat of death and was almost killed. This junior brother's ability to control his spiritual consciousness was really amazing, stronger than those senior brothers and sisters in the late foundation building stage of Tianbei Peak.
Lin Xiang knew that he was not weak, but he didn't expect that he was actually quite strong. Maybe he could win a few more rounds of gangster rewards.
