Chapter 770: Master Bai Xiao
Xiao Chujing stared at the dozen or so chestnuts floating above the flame in his palm, concentrating his mind and making them turn over collectively.
He calmly explained to his fellow students what would happen next.
"For those outside who want to seize our position, the safest approach is to use the high-ranking forces to suppress the low-ranking forces."
"Use the Jindan stage to fight the foundation building stage, and the peak stage to fight the beginner stage."
Ultimately, this game is a game of Tian Ji's horse racing strategy: using mediocre horses to defeat inferior horses, and using superior horses to defeat mediocre horses. It tests one's ability to correctly assess the situation and grasp the timing.
"Yes, that's what we're worried about," Senior Sister Zhu said anxiously. "If they mobilize all the peak Jindan cultivators outside to attack us, only Senior Brother Ju can hold out for a while. The others will be quickly eliminated."
"The result is loss!"
Xiao Chujing said: "No."
He has been watching the ambitious people outside for a long time and has a clear understanding of human nature.
None of those complicated thoughts could get past him.
Xiao Chujing has always had a feeling since he was a child that if he thinks this way about a person, this person will eventually act according to his ideas, and no one can escape his consideration.
Therefore, I often feel bored.
The only mistake he made was that he didn't expect his good "brother" Ji Wenyi to come and take his wife away.
A sharp light gradually appeared in Xiao Chujing's eyes, but the corners of his lips curled up.
He wanted to quickly establish his reputation and status, and the Six Realms Competition was a perfect opportunity. He was more eager to win than his fellow disciples.
"People outside won't be patient and will challenge us from a low level."
"Time is limited, and everyone wants to defeat the Nameless Sword and the Emperor Sword and take the opportunity to become famous."
"That was their biggest miscalculation."
After he finished speaking, the Foundation Establishment Stage members of the team breathed a sigh of relief.
I understand. Those people are coming for Ye Xiaoman and Xiao Chujing. As long as they can hold on for three days, even if they are defeated, there will still be 18 people left in the team and they will not be eliminated.
In the past few days, Xiao Chujing's judgments were all based on what he expected to happen, so when he said that, everyone believed him.
Xiao Chujing said: "My junior sister and I will delay until the last moment."
Ye Xiaoman had already eaten the sweet potatoes. Xiao Chujing wrapped the roasted chestnuts in a handkerchief to keep them warm and handed them to her.
Xiao Chujing's face was filled with annoyance. He had thought that since he had attracted so much hatred these days, those people would target him first. He had already learned the details of all the opponents above the middle stage of the Jindan realm, including their martial arts inheritance, magic weapons, and weaknesses. He had memorized them one by one.
He was confident that he could hold them off for three days by himself.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a miscalculation. For some reason, the opponents outside changed their stance and actually targeted Ye Xiaoman first.
Fists and feet have no eyes, so it doesn't matter if Xiao Chujing gets injured. He also knows that Ye Xiaoman can handle those opponents well, but out of selfishness, he doesn't want to put Ye Xiaoman in any risky environment.
Xiao Chujing felt a lump in his throat. He shouldn't have said this, but he still wanted to give Ye Xiaoman some advice. He said to her, "If you encounter a vicious and evil person, don't try to hold on. Leave the rest to me."
Ye Xiaoman nodded, squinting her eyes and happily sipping the sweet potato peels. After eating the Qigong pills for seven days, they finally stopped to let her have a bite of hot food.
“I should be fine,” she said.
Her heart was calmer than Xiao Chujing's.
Since they had agreed to beat her up, she should just deal with it directly. Worrying about something that hadn't happened yet was like eating shit in advance.
Moreover, she had been training hard during this period, directly trained by Jing Zhui, and she had long wanted to find someone to fight with to confirm how powerful she was.
Besides, Xiao Chujing was fighting with others in the auditions earlier, and she was watching from the side. She always felt that... those people seemed unable to beat her?
Xiao Chujing and Ye Xiaoman were very confident, so their fellow disciples had nothing to say.
Although she was worried, Xiao Chujing's golden elixir was broken, and Ye Xiaoman was only at the initial stage of forming a golden elixir. Could she really withstand the oncoming force of a peak-level expert?
The four leaders of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum murmured to themselves, "Forget it, forget it. Losing is no big deal. Just being able to make it into the top 100 this time is already the best result we could have imagined."
While the geniuses were competing fiercely, colorful clouds suddenly gathered above the school martial arts field, and cranes were brought to the platform, temporarily building a magnificent observation deck.
It faces south and is in the shape of an "A". It is high above and has an excellent view, from which one can directly watch the competition below.
As dusk faded, thanks to the magic array's effects, the entire mountain remained as bright as day, its flags blazing from various sects and schools covering the sky. The heads of various immortal sects, elders, and stewards came in like a breeze, taking their seats one after another.
The seats were arranged according to the rankings of the geniuses. The leader and elders of the Qingzheng Sect, thanks to Ye Xiaoman and others, finally got the chief seat this time, occupying the best viewing position. Everyone had a happy face and laughed heartily.
The geniuses below were either forming alliances or starting competitions. The fluctuations of their magic power were confined within the training grounds and could not be heard outside. Their every word and action was clearly heard by the audience above.
The leader of the Tianyan Sect, who had been eliminated by the Qingzheng Sect long ago, sat at the last table and raised his glass to the leader of the Qingzheng Sect with a sour look on his face. "Qingzheng Sect is too clever. Now he has angered everyone. I'm afraid he will be eliminated on the first day."
After the Sect Master, Elder Tang and the others sat down and understood the situation, they were still unsure.
After all, the Qingzheng Sect had been in ruins for not just a few decades or centuries, but generations. Relying on the prestige of Grandmaster Nishang and the legacy of the past, they were able to barely maintain their title as one of the Nine Great Immortal Sects and avoid being eliminated.
The other up-and-coming immortal sects were indignant and had long wanted to break the Nameless Sword and take its place.
Ye Xiaoman was being collectively targeted today, and there was nothing she could do about it.
No matter how strong you are, you can't withstand a group fight.
At this moment, the sect leader only hoped that Ye Xiaoman, who was holding the nameless sword, would not lose too quickly, but lose in a decent manner to earn some face for the sect.
The Sect Master couldn't help but feel sad when he thought about how the inheritance of Grandmaster Nishang had fallen into decline.
But no matter how pessimistic he was, he couldn't lose the war of words. The sect leader said modestly, low-key and friendly: "Old man, shut your stinking mouth. My sect's nameless sword will make you unforgettable today!"
There were a few boos during the banquet. Although all the people present were masters who were serious in front of their disciples, in such occasions, everyone wanted to win and their behavior became more and more childish.
The sects in the human world are not as harmonious as they seem on the surface. There are often disputes over spiritual mineral veins, resources and territories. Every selection in the human world is a time to redistribute these disputed resources.
Therefore, this is not only a competition, but also an opportunity to fight for future resources. Every sect attaches great importance to it and secretly prays that our genius can win.
"Mr. Bai Xiao, which side do you think will be the winner?"
The leader of Tianyan Sect suddenly spoke and asked Shi Zaixing who was standing above him.
