In the side hall.

None of the dozen or so deacons present had expected that Gu Jie would quickly fall behind after the competition began.

Gu Jie himself did not expect Wei Hong's casting speed to be so fast, and he was forced to be beaten by mistake.

And now he was directly trapped by the Qiulong Green Ivy Technique, and it would not be so easy for him to escape.

Thinking of this, Gu Jie no longer held back. He gritted his teeth and violently mobilized the spiritual power in his body.

hum!

An ice blade more than three feet long condensed in an instant and chopped fiercely at the green vines outside the armor.

clang!

However, when the ice blade hit the green vine, it was like hitting an iron wall. It made a dull sound and the ice blade was directly bounced away.

"How can it be so hard? How can the Qionglong Qingteng technique he used be so strong?"

Gu Jie was slightly stunned, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

It's not that he hasn't seen the Dragon Green Ivy Technique before. He has used ice blades to cut green vines in the past. But the Dragon Green Ivy Technique that Wei Hong used now seemed to be different. The seemingly weak green vine was actually extremely hard.

However, before Gu Jie could use his trick again, his expression suddenly changed.

It was because above his head, a flaming sword more than ten feet long had already condensed into shape.

It was Wei Hong’s Golden Flame Slash!

While Gu Jie was trapped, Wei Hong condensed the Golden Flame Slash.

Moreover, he and Gu Jie only used one-third of their fighting strength this time, and they were deliberately slow when performing the Golden Flame Slash. He also deliberately restrained most of the power of the Golden Flame Slash to avoid it being too terrifying.

The mere appearance of this Golden Flame Slash was enough to make Gu Jie feel greatly threatened. He believed that it would be difficult to resist with his Rock Armor Technique.

Wei Hong's face was calm, and he uttered one word: "Behead!"

The next moment, the golden flame slash fell fiercely towards Gu Jie.

At the same time, the dragon green vine suddenly contracted.

Gu Jie's face changed drastically, and he no longer had any hope. He no longer cared about saving face and shouted in a hurry, "I admit defeat, Brother Wei, I admit defeat!!"

He was deeply afraid that if he was a little slower, the Golden Flame Slash would have struck him directly, and then it would have been difficult for him to remain safe and sound.

Compared with oneself, face is naturally nothing.

"Congeal!"

After hearing Gu Jie admit defeat, Wei Hong immediately pointed his finger.

The golden flame slash hovered steadily above Gu Jie's head, only three feet away from his head.

"Disperse!"

Wei Hong clasped his hands together and waved them violently.

The golden flame slash instantly turned into spiritual energy and dissipated into the air, and the green vine disappeared along with it.

"call!"

Gu Jie let out a long sigh. Although his expression was ugly, he dared not look down on Wei Hong any more. He immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Brother Wei, for holding back. I am ashamed that my skills are not as good as yours!"

He himself did not expect that he would lose to Wei Hong, a newcomer at the foundation-building level.

But the fact is the fact. No matter how thick-skinned Gu Jie is, he would be embarrassed to deny it in front of so many people, so he just decided to be generous.

Wei Hong was not at all proud, and immediately waved his hands and said with a smile: "No, no, no, it's just a brief exchange, it doesn't mean anything, Wei will have to ask for more advice from fellow Daoist Gu in the future!"

People in sedan chairs carry people!

Now that his goal has been achieved, he will not allow himself to appear overbearing.

As expected, after hearing Wei Hong's humble words, Gu Jie's face immediately became better. He immediately said, "I don't deserve your advice. It is also an honor for me to communicate with you, fellow Daoist Wei!"

"Haha, communicate with each other, communicate with each other!" Wei Hong laughed.

At this time, seeing that the two had finished their sparring, Zhu Ming and others surrounded them again. Zhu Ming was very surprised and said, "Daoyou Wei, I didn't expect that you are so powerful. You must have kept it a secret from me!"

"Brother Zhu, you are joking. What's there to be proud of with my little strength? It's nothing at all!"

Wei Hong hurriedly said something modest.

"Yes, yes, Fellow Daoist Wei was able to defeat Fellow Daoist Gu. He is indeed amazing!"

"Brother Wei, did you really break through to the foundation-building stage in just two or three years? This is so surprising!"

"Brother Wei's spellcasting speed is so fast, it seems that his attainments in magic are very profound!"

"That's right, Fellow Daoist Wei, we should communicate more in the future!"

After Zhu Ming, the other dozen or so deacons also gathered around with smiles on their faces.

At this moment, the attitudes of these deacons were very different from before. Not only did they seem much warmer, but even the smiles on their faces looked very sincere.

Obviously, Wei Hong, a newcomer at the first level of foundation building, was able to quickly defeat Gu Jie, who was at the second level of foundation building, in the competition. This shocked them greatly, and they saw it with their own eyes, which was more convincing than any rumor. So this fact also let the outer sect deacons present know that Wei Hong should not be underestimated, his strength is even more impressive, and he is very worthy of making friends with.

As a result, these deacons naturally did not dare to look down on Wei Hong anymore, and they all wanted to make friends with him, as if the people who looked down on Wei Hong just now were not them at all.

Especially the female cultivator Lin Yinping, whose face was full of smiles at this moment. She did not mention what happened just now at all, but instead kept trying to chat with Wei Hong.

Wei Hong naturally mentioned the things that happened just now in a depressed mood, and now he was also communicating with everyone with a smile.

When someone asked him about his strength, he just said that he had practiced magic very hard and didn't say anything else. People didn't dare to ask too much, after all, it involved other people's secrets.

After this battle, Wei Hong already knew the approximate level of his own strength.

Take Gu Jie, who was at the second level of foundation building, for example. He easily defeated the cultivator by using only 30% of his combat power. Moreover, the power of the spells he cast with 30% of his combat power was already extremely amazing. If he used his full combat power, it would be no problem for him to fight against the cultivator at the sixth level of foundation building, and the cultivators below the sixth level of foundation building would be quickly defeated by him.

Such strength is extremely terrifying for a cultivator at the second level of foundation building.

Even if he defeated a cultivator at the second foundation building level with his first foundation building level cultivation as he did just now, it was enough to shock everyone present.

If they knew that Wei Hong only used 30% of his fighting strength, they would be so shocked!

Wei Hong continued to keep a low profile and humbly exchanged a few words with the other deacons. After they got to know each other, he left the side hall with Zhu Ming.

However, he didn't know that shortly after he left, more than a dozen deacons who witnessed the competition began to spread the news, so that Wei Hong's name gradually became famous among the many deacons.

All of a sudden, more deacons began to want to make friends with Wei Hong, and he attracted the attention of many people. Many people wanted to meet this newcomer who defeated a cultivator at the second level of foundation building with his first level of foundation building cultivation.

Wei Hong currently knew nothing about this. After leaving the side hall, he strolled around with Zhu Ming again. After finding that there was nothing to gain, he said goodbye and left and returned to the spiritual plant garden!
