Chapter 113 – The Outer Sect Competition
Chapter 113 – Outer Sect Competition
The way back was smooth, Xu Chuniang returned to the Outer Gate of the Easy Sect after registering at the North Gate.
Just back to the sect, they saw the usual cold practice field, surrounded by a lot of disciples, is talking feverishly.
“In a few days, it will be the once every five years Outer Sect Competition, I wonder, this time, who will stand out in the competition?”
“Senior Brother Murong is already a great circle of qi cultivation, not only is his sword skill pure, but he is also proficient in the art of seal scripts, so he has a great hope of becoming one of the top ten in this grand competition.”
“Although Senior Sister Xiao Frost is a Third Spirit Root, she has an Ice Spirit Root, and her perception of Ice Arts is far above that of the others, and she is also a favorite to be promoted to the top ten this time.”
“There’s also senior brother Gu Feng, not only does he have a good cultivation skill, he also practiced the art of body refining, the top ten of the outer sect will definitely have a seat for him.”
Xu Chuniang passed by the practice field, incidentally listened to an ear, and only then did she understand that the original once every five years, the outer gate competition, was just a few days later.
A few moments of interest surfaced in her eyes, the top ten of the outer gate competition often represented the top fighting force of the outer gate.
Since she had stumbled upon it, she would have to observe it properly.
Through this Outer Sect Grand Competition, it was just right to understand in advance what level of strength one had to reach in order to enter the Inner Sect.
Three days later, the Outer Sect Grand Competition was held as scheduled.
Xu Chuniang found a seat early and waited at ease for the Outer Sect Competition to begin.
The cultivators who participated in this competition were basically at the ninth level of Qi cultivation, and there were even quite a few who were at the full circle of Qi cultivation or even half-step Foundation Establishment cultivation.
There are very few people who want to try their luck, the eighth level of qi cultivation will sign up to participate in the big competition, every big competition, there is no lack of such people who want to try their luck.
Just such a person, often even the top 100 are difficult to enter, let alone the top ten.
In the past to enter the top ten of the big competition, the cultivation is not the realm of qi practice great circle.
With a burst of exciting drums, a five-year period of the outer disciple competition, finally opened the prelude.
A Jindan elder ascended to the high platform, after a few passionate words of encouragement, announced the official start of the competition.
The disciples participating in the Great Competition were divided into four battle zones and synchronized to fight.
Each battle area decided the top 100, selecting a total of 400 disciples.
This process was also known as the qualifying round.
Only those who had won consecutive victories all the way into the top hundred in the war zones of the qualifiers would have the opportunity to participate in the real outer sect competition.
With thousands of people signing up for the Grand Competition each time, most people would be brushed off in the preliminaries, and only a few powerful experts would be able to triumph all the way into the Grand Competition and have the chance to participate in the final.
In the qualifiers, ten rings were set up in each of the war zones, and the competitions were held at the same time.
The ring in front of Xu Chuniang had “C7” written on it, meaning that this ring was the seventh ring in the C region among the four war zones.
As the fight officially began, two disciples stepped onto the ring, and under the referee’s signal, the fight began.
These two disciples were both female cultivators at the ninth level of qi cultivation, one of them was skilled in sword arts, and without saying a word, she harnessed her flying sword to kill the other one.
The other female cultivator, however, did not panic, dodging the flying swords, while constantly interfering with the other with her spells, not even using her spiritual weapon.
The disciples on the sidelines were all talking when they saw this scene.
“That senior sister is also too much of a trustworthy person, facing the attack of the flying swords, she even dodged, if she is not careful and gets hit by the flying swords, it’s like she’s directly out of the game.”
“She was slow to use her spirit weapon, could it be that she doesn’t have one?”
“How could that be, you think that the ninth level Qi Practicing Sisters are all as poor as us, with so many years of accumulation, they are not so poor that they don’t even have a lower grade spirit weapon.”
The crowd debated for a moment, they all decided that that senior sister was too much of a trustworthy person, no matter how exquisite your stance is, there is always a time when you miss.
As long as there was the slightest mistake of being caught up by a flying sword, it would be dangerous. Xu Chuniang watched with rapt attention, and she had a different view of the battle in the ring.
The female cultivator, who was bent on avoiding the fight, had a calm expression on her face, and she was clearly comfortable dealing with the flying swords.
On the other hand, the other female cultivator’s strong attack never worked, and her sword moves were already somewhat disorganized, indicating that her mindset was not as stable as it was at the beginning of the fight.
And more importantly, the two people’s spiritual energy consumption situation is very different.
The female cultivator who used the flying sword had been using her spiritual weapon for a long time, and the amount of spiritual energy she consumed was very shocking.
On the other hand, the other female cultivator hadn’t used a spiritual weapon since the beginning, and her spiritual energy was still abundant. In addition to some unusual techniques, she didn’t even use too many killing strokes and means, obviously having enough confidence in her own strength and stance.
Xu Chuniang pondered, probably understanding why this female cultivator had been dodging.
The number of people who had signed up for the Grand Competition this time was more than five thousand, and there were more than a thousand people assigned to each battle zone.
To make it into the top 100 in the qualifying rounds, one generally had to win three or four games in a row.
And these three or four matches, basically the further back you go, the opponents in each match, would only get stronger and stronger.
The pace of the qualifiers was fast, and would usually end within five days.
This also meant that everyone who passed the qualifying rounds would have to defeat stronger and stronger opponents one after another within five days.
On the premise of not getting injured, preserving as much spiritual energy as possible, and not exposing their means and killing moves too early, in order to stand out in the qualifiers and go farther in the finals.
The female cultivator on the field made mediocre strikes, only dodging, most likely not taking the person in front of her as a real opponent.
This was indeed the case, that sword making female cultivator was unable to attack for a long time, her mood became more and more impatient, and several breaks appeared in her sword moves.
Avoiding the female cultivator to see the right time, finally not retreating instead of advancing, with the wind blade to force the sword female cultivator to kill, won the fight.
The sword female cultivator felt the cold killing intent of the wind blade in front of her, and her flying sword instantly lost control and landed on the ground.
Her eyes flashed with unwillingness and anger, but she only helplessly said, “I admit defeat.”
The fight was not about life and death, if she did not admit defeat, the next second, the wind blade would cut through more than just her clothes.
The crowd of disciples were in an uproar, never expecting that the winner of this fight would be the one they didn’t favor.
Some people even do not quite understand, obviously flying swords have been attacking fiercely, how suddenly the situation has flipped it, is that female cultivator lucky to win?
However, as the next fight began in earnest, they put this matter behind them and watched the new fight with great interest.
Xu Chuniang was also concentrating, carefully watching the battle in front of her, refusing to let go of every detail.
Seeing more of other people’s battles might shed some light on her.
In the days that followed, Xu Chunniang temporarily put aside her cultivation and came to observe the fight every day.
The Outer Sect Grand Competition was only held once every five years and lasted for ten days. No matter how urgent cultivation was, it wasn’t too bad for a few days of work.
The preliminaries were held for a total of five days, and after five days, the four hundred winners would participate in the official competition.
The official competition is divided into two rounds, the first round lasts for three days, and will decide the top fifty in three competitions, and the other three hundred and fifty people will be eliminated directly.
The second round is the final round, which lasts for two days, with a slight change in the rules.
Fifty people will be divided into ten groups, and the five people in the group will fight two by two, each person will fight against the other four people in the group.
The ones with the most victories in each group would be the top ten of the competition.
