The disciples went back to rest for a day, and the formal competition began the next morning.
The first round was between Lu Ziyao and Wang Qingqiao. Wang Qingqiao's luck was really bad. He lost to Yi Xichen yesterday and lost face in the Sword Refining Pavilion. Today, he drew Lu Ziyao, who was ranked first in the Sword Refining Pavilion. This round of competition was very fast. The two of them went on the court with full sword energy. The gap between Wang Qingqiao and Lu Ziyao was very obvious. He was defeated in just two moves. He didn't bother to fight anymore and left the court in disgrace.
The second round was between Bian Liang of the Sword Guarding Pavilion and Shi Xi of the Sword Repairing Pavilion. Although Shi Xi was ranked high in the Sword Repairing Pavilion, it was difficult for him to get any good results when he met a disciple of the Sword Guarding Pavilion. He struggled hard and tried to counterattack, but was still mercilessly beaten by Bian Liang.
Next came Xiao Kui and Zhao Ping from Yaoge.
Xiao Kui had always disliked Yaoge, and recently he had suffered many losses at the hands of Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson Zijun. After entering the arena, he was determined to vent all his resentment, and the first move he made was the extremely fierce move Ten Thousand Swords Slash! How could Zhao Ping withstand such a strong sword energy? If he was hit by this move, he would be seriously injured!
However, before Xiao Kui's sword energy could touch Zhao Ping, it was dispersed by a sword light.
Qiu Jian instantly flashed from the sidelines to the field, stood in front of Zhao Ping, and stared at his disciple with cold eyes.
Xiao Kui said awkwardly: "Master, Master."
Although the sword fighting competition is a competition, it is only for learning from each other. It is not allowed for the same disciples to kill each other. The elders will supervise the fight on the sidelines. If they encounter a disciple who does not know his own limits, they will stop him. Xiao Kui's behavior has exceeded the original meaning of the sword fighting. Although he won in the end, he was still criticized.
The first few matches were between two teams with a huge difference in strength, so there was nothing interesting to watch. The most exciting match was the fifth match between Gongsun Di of the Sword Guarding Pavilion and Jin Cheng of the Sword Refining Pavilion.
Jincheng ranked third in the Refining Sword Pavilion, and Gongsun Di ranked first in the Defending Sword Pavilion, and their cultivation levels were almost the same. The attack of the Refining Sword Pavilion and the defense of the Defending Sword Pavilion restrained each other, one claimed to be indestructible, and the other claimed to be indestructible. This battle lasted for nearly two hours, and finally Jincheng exhausted his spiritual power and was wiped out by Gongsun Di.
By the seventh match, it was finally Yi Xichen and Sun Xiaoqian's turn.
The sword competition was a grand event for the Tianjian Sect. Even disciples who were not qualified to participate would come to watch. The match with the largest number of spectators was the one between Yi Xichen and Sun Xiaoqian, two disciples from the Medicine Pavilion. This had never happened before.
Yesterday, Yi Xichen defeated Wang Qingqiao with swords, which was the first time in the thousand-year history of Tianjian Sect. However, the sword shadow blocked the outside world when the two competed yesterday, and the disciples were unable to see the development of the battle. Today, they took the opportunity to come and observe, to see how capable this batch of Yaoge disciples are.
However, to everyone's disappointment, Yi Xichen and Sun Xiaoqian used unorthodox techniques throughout the competition, and hardly used sword energy. In the end, Yi Xichen set up a maze on the field and led Sun Xiaoqian into it, unable to tell the directions until he walked down the sword training ground and realized what was happening.
Of course there was a burst of boos from the audience.
In fact, it was not easy for Yi Xichen to win this battle. He could not arrange the venue in advance, but drew up the formation bit by bit in front of Sun Xiaoqian during the duel, hiding it from Sun Xiaoqian's eyes. It could be considered a wonderful battle, but unfortunately it was not what the disciples wanted to see.
Yi Xichen was very thick-skinned and took the sneers very seriously. He only cared about the results, not the means.
In the eighth round, it was the turn of the competition between Zhang Sunzijun and Yue Xiaorou.
The number of people watching on the sidelines did not decrease.
The eldest grandson, Jun. The first day this disciple came to Tianjian Sect ten years ago, his name spread throughout the sect. In the past thousand years, Tianjian Sect has only produced three disciples with natural spiritual roots. The first one was Yunchang Zhenren, who became a golden elixir cultivator in just thirty years and shocked the world. Unfortunately, he died five hundred years ago when he followed Fenglian Xiaozu in the battle against the Wuxiang Tianmo; the second one was Huaya Zhenren, who became famous in the battle against the demon world two hundred years ago and is now the leader of a sect; the third one is the eldest grandson, Jun.
At first, everyone thought that the eldest grandson Jun would become a legend, a great man, or the successor of the sect leader. However, what no one expected was that within less than a year of entering the sect, he was almost expelled from the sect for violating the sect rules. In the end, although he stayed, he fell into the Yaoge, which had no future.
In the past ten years, everyone was curious about the eldest grandson Jun, some of them came to test him in person, and some of them were looking forward to hearing rumors about him. However, the eldest grandson Jun had a cold personality and hardly interacted with others except Yi Xichen. In the past ten years, he had not caused anything worthy of people's attention. So many people felt sorry that a young man with a rare talent was buried.
This sword fighting competition was the first time that the eldest grandson Jun showed up in front of everyone in the sect. And his first battle was against Yue Xiaorou, the second-ranked junior sister of the Sword Refining Pavilion. In the past thousand years, Yi Xichen was the first person to defeat a disciple of the Sword Refining Pavilion as a disciple of the Medicine Pavilion, and people were looking forward to seeing that the eldest grandson Jun would be the second one.
Before his eldest grandson Zijun came on the court, Yi Xichen was more nervous than him.
"Really? You just happened to be the one to draw the junior sister... Do you have any way to win?"
The eldest grandson, Jun, was unusually calm: "She won't do anything to me."
"Why?" Yi Xichen looked at him suspiciously. This is the opposite of what he said, it is obviously the eldest grandson Zijun who cannot lay a hand on the girl, why can't the girl lay a hand on him?
"Because she has a crush on me."
Yi Xichen: “…”
In OOC fan fiction, all men of the right age envy the anus of the little bottom, and all women of the right age envy the cucumber of the little top. Xiao Kui is a professional at being slapped in the face, so the fan fiction author feels sorry for him and gives him special treatment.
Yi Xichen saw that his eldest grandson Zijun looked calm and at ease, and asked incredulously: "Are you sure?"
The eldest grandson, Jun, tilted his head and thought carefully: "Not sure."
Yi Xichen: “…”
Yue Xiaorou, with her female body, was ranked second in the Sword Refining Pavilion, second only to Lu Ziyao. Her ability was naturally beyond doubt. The spiritual roots of ordinary cultivators are divided into five elements: gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but Yue Xiaorou has the rare ice spiritual root. Although the ice spiritual root is not as good as the heavenly spiritual root of the eldest grandson Zijun and the three yang body of Lu Ziyao, it is also very suitable for sword cultivation.
Yue Xiaorou is just as cold as her spiritual roots. Her coldness is different from that of Zhang Sunzijun. Zhang Sunzijun is not ruthless, but just introverted. Yue Xiaorou is truly heartless and heartless. She doesn't care about anyone, nor is she afraid of anything. She is the only one among hundreds of disciples who has achieved the unity of man and sword, because she herself is the sharpest sword.
Yi Xichen recalled the rumors he had heard about Yue Xiaorou, and then looked at his eldest grandson Zijun who said, "She has a crush on me," and couldn't help but shudder.
"Actually, she gave you an abortion pill." The eldest grandson Jun added silently.
Yi Xichen: “…”
“I know this is delusion.”
"Then don't say it out loud!" Yi Xichen glared at him fiercely.
He wanted to give his eldest grandson Jun some more tips on how to deal with Yue Xiaorou, but the bell had already rung. Yue Xiaorou flew onto the stage with heroic spirit, and his eldest grandson Jun also walked up slowly.
The two of them exchanged greetings as usual, and Yue Xiaorou said briefly, "Please teach me."
The eldest grandson, Zijun, said nothing, but drew his sword silently. His attitude inevitably made people feel that he was very arrogant, but Yi Xichen knew that the eldest grandson, Zijun, would not speak to women.
Yi Xichen suddenly felt afraid to look further. This match... shouldn't be that bad... at least it would be good if the eldest grandson Zijun didn't just stand there like a stake to be chopped down...
Meanwhile, several elders were also paying attention to the two disciples. Elder Qiu Jian of the Sword Refining Pavilion looked at his eldest grandson, Zijun, with mixed feelings.
At first, his eldest grandson Jun was his disciple. He was also a man who loved talents. He tried his best to recruit all the talented disciples under his tutelage, which exacerbated the decline of the Medicine Pavilion and the Sword Repairing Pavilion. How could he bear to give up a genius like his eldest grandson Jun?
At that time, the eldest grandson Zijun secretly broke into the forbidden area in the back mountain, violating the rules of the sect. Although he was not as ruthless as Yao Budu who disabled himself for a hundred years just to save him, he still knelt outside of Jade Ying Zhenren for three days and three nights, begging Jade Ying Zhenren to show leniency to him because the child had a natural spiritual root.
He didn't understand what Yuying Zhenren was thinking. Although Yuying Zhenren was stubborn, the sect's rules were not completely unchangeable. In the past hundred years, two or three unreasonable rules had been changed. If he were the head of the sect, for the sake of a disciple with a natural spiritual root, he would forgive him ten or a hundred times, not to mention one time. But Yuying Zhenren told him that other things might be negotiable, but no one was allowed to enter the forbidden area in the back mountain. Not to mention a disciple with a natural spiritual root, even an elder with a natural spiritual root would be punished if he entered without permission.
Because of this small matter, Qiu Jian missed the opportunity to become a talented disciple and was taken advantage of by Yao Budu.
Yue Xiaorou made her move. She swung a swift lightning sword towards Changsun Zijun and was ready to use the next move. She did not underestimate the enemy. Although Changsun Zijun restrained his sword energy, she knew that he was a very powerful opponent. She did not think that the lightning sword could hurt Changsun Zijun. This was just a test.
However, when the lightning dissipated, the eldest grandson Jun, whose hair was afro due to lightning, stood there silently.
Everyone: “…”
The whole audience burst into laughter!
"Is this man really Chang Sunzi Jun? Is Chang Sunzi Jun really a person with a natural spiritual root?!"
"Did he become stupid from taking the elixirs in the medicine pavilion? He can't even avoid the lightning sword?!"
"Is he a swordsman? Where is his sword energy?!"
Although Yue Xiaorou's lightning sword was swift and powerful, it was by no means a killing move. Not to mention those who were qualified to participate in the fencing competition, even many of the disciples watching from the audience were able to avoid it.
"Oh my god." Yi Xichen covered his face, not daring to look down.
Although Yue Xiaorou was a little surprised, she would never show mercy. Since the eldest grandson Zijun did not dodge, she released her sword energy and prepared to defeat the enemy with one move. However, in an instant, an extremely cold sword energy hit her face, and her whole body froze immediately - it was the threat from the strong, which made her unable to move!
The eldest grandson Jun threw the sword in his hand towards Yue Xiaorou. His sword was almost flying close to the ground, and the blade scooped up the stiff Yue Xiaorou, directly carrying her out of the sword training ground and then falling to the ground.
All of this, from beginning to end, actually happened in the blink of an eye. When the eldest grandson Jun flew his sword, he also released his sword energy. No matter how strong his sword energy was, it could only make the enemy stiffen for a very short moment. This stiffness was not caused by his control over the enemy, but by everyone's instinctive fear.
Because it happened so quickly, many disciples blinked and could only see Yue Xiaorou falling to the ground on the flying sword. They had no idea what was happening.
There was silence.
The bell rang, and after a long while, Qiu Jian's depressed voice came from above: "The eldest grandson Jun wins."
The whole audience remained silent. The disciples had come to their senses and were eager to discuss the competition, but they found that they didn't know where to start.
