Chapter 25 What hatred and grudge
In the center of the martial arts arena, the atmosphere was a bit quiet. The outer disciples who had the strength to challenge for the top ten but thought they were unlucky were sizing up the top ten contestants on the stage.
To be precise, the people he was looking at were three people at the ninth level of Qi training and one Lu Yi.
The three outer disciples who were at the ninth level of Qi training standing on the stage had cold faces. They glanced at their fellow disciples who were ready to make a move below, exuding a powerful aura, intending to make those guys carefully consider the consequences of choosing them.
However, Lu Yi did not exude any aura and looked like a harmless little white rabbit.
At this moment, Mo Lingxi stepped forward and said, "Yu Ming, I want to challenge you!"
Yu Ming was a ninth-level Qi training disciple with thick eyebrows and ordinary looks. He frowned and looked at Mo Lingxi: "Mo Lingxi, are you sure you want to challenge me?! Do you think I'm the weakest one?!"
Mo Lingxi grinned and said, "There's nothing I can do. I think I'm still a little behind Tian Lu and Lin Yu. Junior Brother Lu Yi... Hey, I've already lost. I think Junior Brother Lu Yi is better than Tian Lu and Lin Yu... Only you, I think I have a chance of winning."
Hearing this, many people's expressions changed slightly and they looked in Lu Yi's direction.
"What?! Mo Lingxi just lost to Junior Brother Lu Yi?!"
"Is this true? Junior Brother Lu Yi is so strong?"
"Don't you know? The top ten candidates on stage 9 are Junior Brother Lu Yi and Senior Brother Mo Lingxi. Junior Brother Lu Yi is very strong, and his Baiyun swordsmanship really opened my eyes."
"I don't know. We are on stage 4, which is separated from stage 9 by a central stage. I didn't pay attention."
"Then you've missed a good show. I think Junior Brother Lu Yi is stronger than Senior Sister Tian Lu and Senior Brother Lin Yu."
"hiss……"
Everyone gasped. The few disciples who were eager to challenge Lu Yi looked at him with fear and quickly looked away.
In this case, it seems that I have to find someone else to challenge.
Lu Yi felt the gazes of the crowd and felt numb.
He looked at Mo Lingxi and the disciples who were talking below, feeling desperate. What kind of hatred or grudge was this? He was thinking that he might be able to earn some perfect Qi Condensation Pills this time, but what happened?
Why do you guys make me sound so awesome? I'm obviously a nobody!
When Lu Yi saw the ninth-level Qi training disciple looking away, his heart sank.
When Yu Ming heard what Mo Lingxi and the disciples said, his face changed. He glanced at Lu Yi, gritted his teeth, and snorted at Mo Lingxi: "Then come and try! I, Yu Ming, am not someone you can easily mess with!"
Seeing this, Dugu Fang smiled and said, "If that's the case, then let's challenge him."
The top ten challenge was held on the central stage. Lu Yi and others left the stage. Dugu Fang floated in the air and served as the referee himself, while Mo Lingxi and Yu Ming went onto the stage.
Under the ring, Lu Yi had a numb expression and felt like he had lost all desire to live. He was almost becoming a dead loser.
If I had known this earlier, I would have given Mo Lingxi a hard blow. This bastard actually praised him like that. If no one comes to challenge him, it will all be Mo Lingxi's fault!
Then Lu Yi thought that if he really used some ruthless force, others would probably not dare to challenge him.
When Lu Yi thought of this, he became even more withdrawn.
Lin Wan'er, who was standing beside him, looked at Lu Yi with a smile and said, "Junior Brother Lu Yi, I didn't expect you to be so powerful?"
Lu Yi came back to his senses and saw several Qi training level 10 disciples looking at him. He smiled shyly and said, "Senior Brother Mo Lingxi is exaggerating. I am just average."
Jiang Fan beside him chuckled: "Junior Brother Lu, why are you being so modest? I can see your strength. I'm afraid your Baiyun Sword Skill has reached its limit, right?"
When the others heard this, their faces changed and there was more surprise on their faces when they looked at Lu Yi.
"Practice the basic magic to the limit?" The cold and fierce young man with two swords on his back looked at Lu Yi, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit: "Interesting, the top ten ranking battle tomorrow, I look forward to fighting with you."
The other disciples who were at the tenth level of Qi training also looked at Lu Yi with a more cautious expression.
Seeing the expressions of several Qi training level 10 disciples, Lu Yi felt more relaxed. Although there were fewer Qi training level 9 brothers to spar with, they would definitely compete in the top 10 ranking battle tomorrow. By then, there would be some rewards, right? Thinking of this, Lu Yi felt better again.
He said with a smile: "Brother Jiang Fan, thank you for your praise. I hope you brothers and sisters can play gently in the ranking match tomorrow."
As they spoke, the fight in the ring had already begun.
Lu Yi was well aware of Mo Lingxi's strength, which was considered top-notch at the ninth level of Qi training, but Yu Ming was equally powerful.
Lu Yi watched the battle and found that Yu Ming had also cultivated his magic to the highest level. The most rare thing was that the long sword in Yu Ming's hand was a low-grade magic weapon, which was what Mo Lingxi lacked.
The battle between the two was in full swing, and in the end Yu Ming won the competition with the advantage of his magic weapon.
Mo Lingxi felt a little unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
After the battle between Yu Ming and Mo Lingxi ended, someone else challenged him again. Because of Mo Lingxi's previous words, these challengers avoided Lu Yi.
Perhaps it was because Yu Ming was the weakest among the three ninth-level Qi training disciples, and he received the most challenges. In the end, an outer disciple holding two swords defeated Yu Ming and became one of the new top ten.
Lu Yi also knew the name of this disciple holding two swords. His name was Wan Hua. He was very powerful and was originally a top genius in the outer sect.
Yu Ming is relatively inferior, but he was able to make it into the top ten because of his ability and luck.
Unfortunately, he lost to Wanhua in the end and became someone else's puppet.
After Wanhua, no one continued to challenge, and the top ten were fixed.
By this time, it was already evening and a day of competition was over. Tomorrow would be the last day of the competition and also the most crucial day.
Select the top ten rankings.
Although there were some unexpected events in the final challenge, Lu Yi still obtained five perfect Qi Condensation Pills, which was considered a small gain, and he was quite happy.
As usual, Gu Dufang announced the end of today's competition, and everyone left. Lu Yi also did not go back with Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi, but went home by himself.
…………
Early the next morning.
Almost all the outer sect disciples, deacons, and elders got up early and came to the martial arts field.
Lu Yi was no exception. After he arrived at the martial arts field, he found that there were more people floating in the sky than before.
Lu Yi understood that some of them were elders from the inner sect, and they also came to see the situation.
After all, the top ten disciples can enter the inner sect without taking any assessment, and can now be considered inner sect disciples. Some inner sect elders will come to see the strength of these disciples, and if they are satisfied, they will even contact these disciples and accept them as disciples.
Of course, the elders who come to observe the outer sect assessment are just ordinary elders in the inner sect. The powerful elders and peak masters will not have nothing to do but come here.
No matter how talented the outer disciples were, few of them could really make a name for themselves in the inner sect. After all, the inner sect disciples were basically promoted from the outer sects. Who in the outer sect was not a genius? Some were even brought back from the outside by big shots to be trained since they were young. These people were even more gifted.
The top ten competition in the outer sect is just like that to them. Only after entering the inner sect and showing extraordinary talent will they attract the attention of these big guys.
