Master, you go first!

"First make a batch of samples and then continue to cooperate with the Qiankun Sect. If the negotiation is successful, we can directly supply them. These do not require the Qiankun Sect to make array plates." Gu Jiu fiddled with the lamp and continued, "But there is a problem, that is You may need more people to refine the weapons in the future, so you have to ask Elder Qiu to arrange some disciples, and those who can refine the yellow-level magic weapons can do it."

"That should be no problem. The requirements are not very high." Ji Chuxue said with a smile, "Anyway, there are quite a few disciples at Baidu Peak."

"Well, the other problems are not big. Then keep these samples here. When the talisman is delivered, you can arrange for someone to talk to the other party. If you are willing to cooperate, we can negotiate the price."

"Okay. Let's do it then." Ji Chuxue readily agreed. Now Ji Chuxue looked at Gu Jiu as if he were looking at a human-shaped spirit stone mine, no matter how he looked at it, he would be pleasing to the eye.

"Master, what are you doing here?" Gu Jiutou asked Xu Yuhong after sitting down.

"Do I have to report to you when I come here?" Xu Yuhong was not very happy. "Didn't I copy out the book yesterday? I just happened to bring it here today."

"Oh. I see. Let's go first. The master will have a competition tomorrow. You guys can chat slowly." After saying this, Gu Jiu stood up.

"Little Gu Jiu, when will the new batch of talismans be ready?" Ji Chuxue asked.

"Well, it's coming soon, the day after tomorrow. There are a few more puppets working now. After the competition is over tomorrow, I'll bring them over the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, then you go back first."

……

After Gu Jiu and others left, Ji Chuxue asked about Xu Yuhong's physical condition.

"How is senior brother recovering now?"

"It's almost done. There isn't much evil spirit left in the spiritual root now, but you still need some luck to remove it all. Try taking the Spirit Cleansing Pill a few more times. This last part is the most difficult to remove. It has been unsuccessful several times. ”

"What can we do?"

"It's okay. It's a matter of time. Judging from the previous use, there is hope for recovery. One of the two contaminated spiritual root directions has been restored. Just stick to it for a while."

Ji Chuxue nodded, seeing that Xu Yuhong's complexion was indeed much better than before, so she felt relieved. It seems that I can see the shadow of the graceful senior brother again.

The next day, the competition continued. The people who performed well yesterday obviously have fans. Many people in the audience cheered for their favorite contestants.

In a comparison test, if you grab the same number, you will form a group, and the winner will be determined, and the loser will be eliminated. As a result, Shen Nian caught No. 3, and his opponent was Guan Yuliang. Tan Shuyi caught the number one and faced Li Yuzhu.

After the twenty people finished grabbing the number cards, the presiding elder announced the start of the competition. The two people in the first group stayed on the stage while the rest of the people stepped off the stage.

Tan Shuyi and Li Yuzhu on the stage are both Lingfeng disciples. The two women were facing each other, one in a white dress and the other in a red dress. One was good at water and the other was good at fire. Their silk ribbons fluttered and they each used their moves, just like fairies coming to earth. The moves are elegant and smart, and the skills come and go frequently. The audience in the audience couldn't move their eyes, and some of the male disciples burst out laughing. It felt like watching two fairies dancing gracefully, but they didn't know how much spiritual power was in the seemingly light and graceful dance.

The techniques they practice are similar, and they both know themselves and their enemies. Originally, her level was a little lower. Tan Shuyi had just reached the sixth level of foundation building, which was much lower than Li Yuzhu. However, the water element was more restrained than the fire element, so she could barely fight against him, but it was still very difficult.

After going back and forth several times, Tan Shuyi was already sweating on her forehead, but Li Yuzhu was still very relaxed.

"Junior sister, it seems you still have to practice more." Li Yuzhu said contemptuously, raised his hand and struck again, the spiritual power of his palms burst out, and he struck at Tan Shuyi with flames.

"Thank you for your trouble, senior sister." Tan Shuyi replied, and her spiritual power turned into a wave of water to fight against it.

After a few more moves, Tan Shuyi was out of breath and seemed unable to fight. However, Li Yuzhu had no intention of stopping and kept chasing her without giving her a chance to fight back or admit defeat. Tan Shuyi finally ran out of spiritual power and was hit hard in the chest by a palm and flew out of the field. There was a streak of blood on her mouth. It was very difficult to get up.

Lin Miaoxun, who was watching the battle from a high place, frowned. Feng Hui beside her was also a little annoyed. Although her disciple had won the battle, they were all fellow disciples of Fengmai after all. It was impossible to justify such a cruel attack.

"Peak Master, I will definitely punish her when she comes back. It's not a big deal." Feng Hui said sheepishly.

Lin Miaoxun didn't speak, and just looked at the situation of the two people below.

At this time, Shen Nian hurriedly flew over to help Tan Shuyi up, and took out two pills for her to take. Several disciples from Lingfeng came down at the same time. They all approached with worried expressions and tried to help Tan Shuyi up.

Shen Nian stared at Li Yuzhu who turned away contemptuously on the stage with cold eyes, biting his back molars, feeling angry in his heart. The others who followed said hello and asked the Lingfeng disciples to take Tan Shuyi away.

Returning to his seat, Shen Nian's face was filled with unhappiness. Gu Jiu knew that she was outspoken, so she would be very angry and wanted to beat Li Yuzhu. However, she was still competing and could only endure it unless she could fight against her.

"Master, that guy is so abominable. He's so harsh in a competition with his fellow disciples." Xiaobai expressed his displeasure at the side.

"Well, I'm so angry. If we confront her, I'll beat her up."

"That's a bit difficult," Gu Jiu analyzed. "Now it's 20 to 10. Even if you enter the top 10, you won't meet her. The top 10 and the last are facing each other, that is, No. 1 vs. No. 10, No. 2 vs. No. 8. You are No. 3, so you can’t do that.”

"I know, there's nothing we can do about it. We'll talk about it later when we have the chance." Shen Nian nodded.

"But there is another possibility. When you are ranked in the top five, if you are ranked lower than her, you can challenge her."

"Oh, okay, let's see the rankings then."

……

The next competition continued, and in the third game, it was Shen Nian's turn. The person he met was Guan Yuliang, who was considered an acquaintance.

Shen Nian came on stage, cupped his fists and saluted, "Senior Brother Guan, please enlighten me."

Guan Yuliang hesitated for a moment, did not respond, turned around and walked directly to the stage. The disciples watching the game were in an uproar. What is going on?

Even Shen Nian couldn't figure out what he was going to do.

Guan Yuliang came to the competition stage, turned around and smiled, "Junior sister, if you compete well, I believe you can get the first place."

After saying this, Guan Yuliang walked off the stage. He... abstained from voting.

Everyone in the audience sighed. The women said he was too handsome and graceful, while the men said he was too timid to fight. Anyway, everything is there, it’s a mess.

"Damn, he's faking it. How can he really be faking it." Gu Jiu cursed. In fact, he felt that Guan Yuliang couldn't defeat Shen Nian. After all, not long ago, his cultivation level was only at the second level of foundation building. If there was no great opportunity, he should be around the third level now. But what is a little puzzling is that with his cultivation level, he can easily enter the top twenty. Gu Jiu has not yet figured out why.
