Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World
142 Who am I matched against?
A blue light finally hit me. I looked at the second elder to see if his expression changed.
He did not look satisfied, but he did not look disappointed either. He just looked forward monotonously now.
I looked down at where the blue light had hit my body. It was at the center of my chest, and upon close inspection, I could see that there was this number that was showing on me right at that point.
The number, fifty six, was shown to everyone else. I looked at the number that Ji Riyal had.
"Fifty seven. It looks like we were almost destined to meet, but we are not going to. A pity. We are in totally different halves. Well then, if we shall meet, then we shall meet in the finals. Until then, I hope that you do not fall short." Ji Riyal smiled as he started walking away.
He went up the stairs and sat next to someone in the audience. He started talking to that person, and his face changed from the calm that it was to happy. I saw him smiling so much for the first time.
I also saw who he was talking to. It was Ji Ki'er. What I had thought was right. They were definitely related. They could be cousins or siblings, but they knew each other, and they were close to each other.
"Now then. You know your number! Find the person who has your number. That will be the person that you have to face. Number one will face number one. Enter the stage now!" the deacon said.
I looked at who was moving towards the stage. My eyes squinted. I recognized one of the number ones. It was the baldy who was trying to pick a fight with me.
"Sima Xin, I see. I see that he has increased in cultivation since then as well. He is in the fifth layer of the Foundation Establishment stage. That is pretty quick, I think. I wonder what he will feel like when he sees how much I grew though?" I chuckled.
The other person who came onto the ring was someone that I did not recognize even one bit. It was probably someone from the old disciples. There were many who could not pass the inner sect trials three years ago, and they were trying their best to get into the Inner sect now. If they couldn't do it now, then they would have to wait another three years, which was too much time.
"The disparity in talents of the normal people and the geniuses is too much. This man has probably cultivated for a whole three years more than Sima Xin in this cultivation paradise, and he is still only in the seventh layer of the Foundation Establishment stage. Sima Xin might lose this match, but if they face each other again in another year, Sima Xin would probably win.
Being at the Core formation stage, I could now judge the cultivation of people who were in the Foundation Establishment stage. It was like the Qi was telling a story, and the stronger one was, the more he or she could understand it.
"The rules are very simple. If anyone is injured, then that is a casualty of the fight. Swords do not have eyes, and if you lose a limb, then that means that you are too weak. But if you happen to kill anyone, then you will be punished severely. No matter how weak your opponent is, that opponent is a disciple of the sky heavens sect. You are facing against a fellow brother or sister of the sect. Killing him means you are an enemy of the sect. You shall be sent to the Frozen Earth Sect! So mind your attacks now." the deacon said.
As he was saying this, he looked squarely at me and Ji Riyal, who was sitting at the audience. I knew that he was intending that we both had to control our strength.
"Oh my god, they are hyping Ji Riyal too much. Just how powerful is he? I cannot wait for our fight if there is one." I rubbed my hands together.
I then looked behind me. There were a few seats that were not taken. I jumped to the higher elevation and took a seat. I then looked at the fight that was about to commence.
"Now then, I will not let you wait any longer. Begin." the deacon jumped up immediately, and let the two fly to meet each other.
Their weapons clashed. His knuckle busters hit the sword that the senior was using. Sparks flared, and Sima Xin was pushed a step back. But he did not try to leave this encounter.
Instead, he started pushing forward. I could see the manifestation behind him had changed a little. The bull was certainly more solid, and it felt more like a real bull. The horns had these red rings on them, and it felt like it was ready to crush mountains, just like the skill that he was using probably said.
Aaargh!
He raised his head, and these horns made out of Qi tried to plow the senior away. But the senior saw this and moved to the side, barely avoiding this.
Sima Xin stopped and looked at where the senior changed his position to. His right leg raised from the ground and kicked it once like a bull would.
And then, in an explosive burst, he appeared in front of the senior. The senior was not the least bit shocked though. His sword was fast approaching. The sword was about to hit Sima Xin's face when I heard a loud clang.
I knew that the sword did not hit Sima Xin. I saw a flashing light at the last minute. Someone had intervened.
"He Jion wins. Sima Xin, you have failed your attempt to enter the Inner Sect." the deacon said. Then, he turned to the main panel, the elders, and the sect leader.
"Does any sect elder wish to take a disciple now?" he asked respectfully.
