"Including this purple gold medal, he may have nearly two thousand black cards on him." Lei Xinyue responded with a complicated expression.
Now she finally understood why Uncle Qian said those words to her on the flying boat, because what she saw was not only Zhongli Tingzhou's speed, but also the scene where he cut off the right arm of a genius in the late out-of-body stage with one sword.
Others may not have seen it, but she happened to be nearby at the time and the scene was extremely impactful.
Yu Zilang couldn't help but take a deep breath, "There are nearly two thousand black cards. Is there as many as him alone if we add up all of us?"
Lei Xinyue sighed, "The possibility is very low."
"I admit that this Great-Master Zhongli really surprised us, but what comes next is the highlight. Just because you grab a lot doesn't mean you can keep it. Look at those top geniuses, who isn't eyeing them covetously now? Not only are they eyeing the purple gold medal, they're probably also eyeing the crystal diamond and gold medals." Pei Zhenghai came closer, with obvious worry on his face.
"He is in big trouble because he possesses a treasure," said Lei Xinyue.
"There's nothing to worry about. It's impossible to snatch the doorplates from Zixiao Sect." Feng Xinxing said powerfully and confidently. He didn't snatch as much as Zhongli Tingzhou, but he had no problem keeping these doorplates.
"Yes, if they want to take it away, it depends on whether we agree or not." Jiao Yan was also indifferent and strong.
Both of them are top geniuses with the highest cultivation and talent in Zixiao Sect. When they said this, it also represented the confidence of Zixiao Sect.
"But, I remember that purple gold medals and crystal diamond medals cannot be converted." Lei Xinyue said with a frown.
"It's true that it can't be converted, but you can lose to the opponent." Yu Zilang smiled.
Pei Zhenghai suddenly realized, "That's right, Uncle Master Zhongli can 'lose' the house plate to Feng Xinxing or Jiao Yan first. In this way, it won't be so easy for Wen Hongru and the others to take the house plate from us."
"The question now is whether Grandmaster Uncle Zhongli is willing." Lei Xinyue asked the most crucial question.
"What's there to be unwilling about? We won't swallow up his house number plate. According to the sect's rules, if our own people don't challenge, the people who help will only take 10% afterwards. There is no loss to him." Pei Zhenghai said indifferently.
Lei Xinyue and Yu Zilang looked at Feng Xinxing and Jiao Yan. Now it depended on their thoughts. The former nodded and said, "I don't care. I just want to contribute to the Purple Sky Sect."
"I don't care." Jiao Yan said lightly.
For them, 10 percent is not a huge increase.
"That's easy. We'll discuss it with Great-Master Uncle Zhongli later." Lei Xinyue said with a sigh of relief.
No one thought about whether Zhongli Tingzhou would agree, because in their opinion, there was no reason not to agree to such a deal that was very profitable and could keep 90% of the house numbers without any effort.
In fact, many sects and forces do this, and everyone has few opportunities to challenge. Helping him is actually wasting their challenge opportunities. If you don’t help, with the strength of Feng Xinxing and others, you may be able to win more.
At this moment, a loud scream suddenly came from behind.
It's like a person standing on the edge of a cliff, who has been pulled up halfway and is about to be rescued, but suddenly a monster's head pops up from under the cliff and swallows the person in an instant.
The geniuses who went after the purple gold medal had no idea what was going on. Only those who stayed where they were and those outside the barrier knew what was going on. They all had stunned faces.
They were all stunned by the scene just now, and even the genius who witnessed the whole process inside the barrier did not react.
Back to two minutes ago, Gao Han stood right in front of the Wanxian Road in order to see it clearly, so he could see a wider real-time picture.
Afterwards, the purple gold medal flew out, and at that moment he reported its location to Zhongli Tingzhou, but he did not chase after it. He believed that Zhongli Tingzhou, on the premise of seizing the advantage, would definitely be able to get the purple gold medal before everyone else.
Zhongli Tingzhou did not disappoint him. His speed was faster than others. He had the upper hand, so how could he not get the door number?
Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, a huge sense of crisis suddenly hit him.
The Wanxian Road, which was about to close, suddenly gushed out a strong spiritual energy, and a purple gold plate shot out rapidly from the door, like a stream of burning flame, with the power of a planet hitting the earth, rushing into Gao Han's arms and knocking Gao Han away in an instant.
Gao Han was carried more than a hundred meters into the air, gliding in the air until he stopped, and the others did not react in time.
When he stopped, his chest was sunken due to the strong impact of the purple gold medal, and blood dripped down to his fingertips.
Gao Han coughed, bringing out a pool of black blood. He stared at the purple gold medal in his arms that was almost embedded in his flesh and blood, and remained silent.
That's the whole truth.
The geniuses in front heard the sound and rushed over, and saw in Gao Han's arms a purple gold medal that almost caused a bloodbath among them.
Seeing this scene, some geniuses were furious. They tried their best but still couldn't catch up. This person just stood behind and didn't even move, but the purple gold medal was delivered to his door!
They didn't see the whole process, but when they saw Gao Han's expression, they knew what was going on.
No one cared about his injury. As long as he could get a purple gold medal, this injury was nothing. Although his injury looked serious, it was not to the point of breaking any bones.
"What kind of shit luck did this great-grandmaster have?" Yu Zilang blurted out. Great-grandmaster Zhongli had snatched a purple gold medal, after all, he had obtained it through real strength, he had nothing to say. But if the great-grandmaster who had only reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage also 'snatched' a purple gold medal, how could they survive!
"I also want such shitty luck!" Pei Zhenghai said enviously.
"Dream on. Do you think getting two purple gold medals is a good thing?" Lei Xinyue rolled her eyes at them.
Upon hearing this, Yu Zilang and Pei Zhenghai's expressions instantly turned serious. Looking at the geniuses around them who were as vicious as wolves, the Zixiao Sect was indeed in big trouble.
Feng Xinxing and Jiao Yan might be able to hold on to one purple gold medal, but if they hold on to two, it would be in jeopardy.
The battle between top geniuses is not that simple. The biggest possibility is that both sides will suffer losses, so they must use strategy to defend their cards, otherwise it will be easy for the next challenger to take advantage of them.
"Is it really impossible for us to defend both areas?" Yuan Ran, who had become less noticeable among the geniuses, suddenly asked.
Feng Xinxing glanced at his junior brother and said, "In fact, it is not a problem to guard the two purple gold plates, but the price to pay is extremely high. This is just a battle for the gate. The next opening of the Wanxian Road will be very soon, tomorrow. If we all get injured in the battle for the gate that cannot be healed immediately, we will be in even greater trouble when we enter the Wanxian Road."
"Then why don't you two stay together, senior brothers?" Yuan Ran asked again.
"There will be no problem in guarding one piece." They still have this confidence.
"That's all." Yuan Ran breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone thought his reaction was strange. Lei Xinyue said, "We can only guard one piece. The other piece..."
Yuan Ran interrupted her and said with a smile: "Master Uncle Zhongli can guard the other piece by himself."
His relaxed expression was the most incredible in everyone's eyes. Feng Xinxing asked in surprise: "Junior brother, do you believe that he can defend it, or do you think the other piece doesn't need to be defended?"
"I believe that Great-Master Zhongli can hold on." Yuan Ran said without hesitation.
Everyone was shocked. Where did Yuanran get the confidence to think he could hold on?
Zhongli Tingzhou, who was being talked about by them, rushed to Gao Han with a livid face and shouted, "Why are you so stupid? Can't you hide?"
"I wanted to hide, but Wanxiandao didn't give me the chance." Gao Han rubbed his aching temple. He actually didn't expect this to happen.
At that time, Wanxiandao was being closed, and everyone took it for granted that it was impossible for a second purple gold medal to appear, so they relaxed their vigilance, including Gao Han.
He didn't expect that things would happen so suddenly. By the time he discovered it, the purple gold medal was already so close to him that he couldn't hide from it.
“放心，这伤只是皮肉之伤，并不严重。”他利用那一瞬间的机会，取出一块盾牌挡在身前，虽然盾牌没能挡下紫金牌，但是却帮助他卸掉七成的威力。
钟离庭洲仔细检查了一遍，才确定他没说谎，看似血肉模糊的伤口，真的只是皮外伤，抹点灵丹妙药，很快就可以结痂脱落。
“这算是天灾吗？”高寒打趣地说道。
“天什么灾，把丹药拿出来。”钟离庭洲一点也不觉得好笑，他想到高寒差一步就可能丧生，就恨不得扒了这块紫金牌的皮，还有万仙道。
高寒取出一瓶丹药丢给他，钟离庭洲立刻倒出几颗，碾碎了抹在伤口上面。
药效的反应很快，伤口以肉眼可见的速度止血结痂，不过几息，上面的黑痂就像要脱落了一般。
钟离庭洲心中的火气这才稍微降下去。
元然他们过来看到这一幕，除了经历得太多的元然，其他人心中都忍不住说了句败家子。
一点皮外伤，还没有别人断一根手指头严重，居然用掉那么珍贵的丹药，这种伤口，以修士强大的恢复力，不出一天就能结痂了。
“我要挑战你，不接受就不是男人！”
紫霄宗众人还没开口，一个迫不及待的声音就先响起来。
对方要挑战的人正是高寒，以高寒现在的修为，谁能得到挑战他的机会，相当于白捡了个便宜。
那名天骄担心高寒不答应，所以故意用言语激怒他，以往挑战者为了让被挑战者接受他们的挑战，会故意用激将法，但多没有这般低劣，叫人一眼就看出来。
高寒淡淡地瞥了他一眼，一句话也没有说地收回目光，把紫金牌丢给钟离庭洲，从空间戒指取出一件新的黑色长袍换上。
“之前六长老说一个人得两块紫金门牌，还是按三次算，我若说输给你，应该不算次数。”
高寒给钟离庭洲传音，不用问六长老，他都能猜到这一点，因为这是为了公平起见。
既然有了规则，那么规则就会贯彻到底，否则只在一个方面限制，定会引起很多不服气。
“无所谓。”钟离庭洲将紫金牌收起来，那些贪婪的目光并没有收敛，反而越来越明显。
……
“常天涯，你们这位小友这样做，过分了吧。”姜长老声音哄亮，没有情绪，却更显出情绪的目光直视着常天涯。
对钟离庭洲虎视眈眈的天骄们，也不由自主地停止私下的传音。
“极上宗的姜长老在说什么？”孔凤君不解地问道。
“因为历史上曾经一次出现过两块紫金牌，所以各大门派有过约定，若同一个人得到两块紫金牌，只算三次挑战机会。”甘慕兰眯着狭长的丹凤眼给小师妹解释。
孔凤君迟疑了一下，“这也算合情合理吧？”
“是合情合理，但是这样一来，我们这些挑战者得到挑战的机会就更低了，虽然同个门派的弟子有限制，但是，这里这么多人想挑战，他凭什么答应我们的挑战，不答应别人的挑战？”
“慕兰说的没错，这次紫霄宗真是出了两个不得了的弟子，就算保不住两块紫金牌，他们也铁定能留下一块，真是让人羡慕呐。”吕思感慨地说着，突然又看向小师妹调侃道：“虽然你喜欢的人修为不高，但是运气却很不错，他真要一直有这样的运气，吕师姐支持你去追他。”
“吕师姐！你再这样，我就不理你了。”孔凤君没想到师姐突然扯到她身上，羞得脸颊通红。
“这难道不是万仙道一直以来的规定？”常天涯笑容满面，老神在在地回道，“姜长老，这件要是落在极上宗身上，你也会这么说。”
姜长老被说得有一瞬间的哑然，这事也得真的放在极上宗身上才行，问题是，宏儒他们一块也没有抢到。
姜长老原来淡如钟的心境，被说得不由自主的泛起涟漪，明明有两块紫金牌的机会，为什么宏儒他们最后连一块也没有得到。
注意到姜长老沉下去的眼色，闻宏儒几人也知道自己让姜长老失望了，暗下决心，他们一定要从紫霄宗手上夺到一块紫金牌。
“封新星，焦琰，我等你们！”同样作为首席大师兄的闻宏儒在万籁俱寂之时，第一个站了出来。
他没有说等他们什么，但是所有人都听得出来。
紫霄宗不会把两块重要的紫金牌交给一个出窍中期的弟子守着，如果他们想至少保证一块的话，只能交给封新星或焦琰。
闻宏儒看似不想以大欺小，其实是一种战术。
同等修为的顶级天骄，往届为什么会最后都是顶级天骄之战，因为他们有骄傲，有尊严，不允许自己向弱者挑战。
还有一个原因，弱者接受强者挑战的可能性几乎为零。
嗯，这是主要原因。
