When the devil respects life as a waste

At the top of the list, Xie Lingjun.

Green edge, white silk, and black are all treated equally, but the top one is the gold lettering.

At noon on the top of Changliu Peak, a flag slowly fell, and a new flag rose slowly to replace it.

Most of the disciples rushed to the top of the mountain before noon.

On the top of the mountain, there are three banners, one recording the merits of the monks in Qingyang Pavilion, and the other recording the results of the school examinations held every three years.

The merit list records the comprehensive qualifications of each disciple and the contributions they have made to the sect.Only disciples who have truly apprenticed to their masters are eligible to be on the list of meritorious deeds. Miscellaneous servants, outer disciples, and inner disciples who have not apprenticed to their masters do not even have the opportunity to appear on the list of meritorious deeds.

On the merit list, the number one on the list is undoubtedly Qingyang Pavilion Master Jiang Xie.What is surprising is that the third place on the list is actually Xie Lingjun.

In Qingyang Pavilion, not only the disciples have to take the school exam, but even the elders, dharma protectors, and deacons have to be replaced every hundred years according to the ranking of the list of meritorious deeds.

Qingyang Pavilion has one master, seven elders, nine guardians, and thirteen deacons.It stands to reason that Xie Lingjun's ranking is sufficient to serve as an elder, but his qualifications are still young, his realm is not high, he just has my realm.

There are five Dao realms: the Realm of Self, the Realm of Viewing the World, the Realm of Vientiane, the Realm of No Self, and the Realm of the Supreme.

And among the seven elders, the one with the lowest realm is also the Vientiane Realm, not to mention there are four powerful ones in the Selfless Realm.

If Xie Lingjun can reach the Vientiane Realm before the next hundred-year school exam, he can be promoted from Dharma Protector to Elder.And not long ago, he had faint signs of breaking through the realm of selflessness and entering the realm of reading the world.

Because of this, at the Rising Sun Grand Competition, Pavilion Master Jiang Xie announced that Xie Lingjun was practicing in seclusion. No one objected, and everyone believed it.

Xie Lingjun has only been in the Qingyang Pavilion for a hundred years, and the realm that others have spent tens of millions of years to reach, but for him, it does not seem so unattainable.

Examination list.

Xie Lingjun is also at the top of the list, but this Xie Lingjun is not that Xie Lingjun.

The second place is Shen Zhengze, the third is Wei Lianying, the fourth is Qiu Fei, the fifth is Jiu, the sixth is Hu Li, the seventh is Jie Qianchou, the eighth is Liu Shaoqing, and the ninth is Yuli.

For the disciples of Qingyang Pavilion, those who rank in the top five in the examination school will definitely be accepted as disciples by the elders, guardians and deacons.

Disciples ranked after fifth and before ninth can study together with the top five disciples.During this period, they also have the opportunity to be favored by the elders and accepted as disciples.And if after three years, you still can't learn a teacher, you have to participate in the Rising Sun Competition again to fight for another chance.

Seeing the rankings, most of the disciples sighed, feeling deeply disappointed that they did not rank in the top nine, and then encouraged themselves, preparing to fight again in three years.

The four disciples who were ranked in the top nine but not in the top five were not reconciled, so they had no choice but to comfort themselves. Maybe during the three years of studying in the academy, there are seniors who can value themselves and accept themselves as disciples.

As for those in the top five, performances vary.

Xie Lingjun was expressionless, neither disappointed nor overjoyed.He had already fulfilled a wish he had made since his rebirth, to worship Jiang Xie as his teacher again, and prepared to repay all the kindness owed to Jiang Xie in his previous life in this life.

"Is that so?" Shen Zhengze didn't deliberately smile today, but the expression on his face was still very warm, like a warm sun in winter, like the breeze on the river, or the bright moon in the mountains.

Wei Lianying was carrying the dead wood dragon chanting, her face full of indifference.For her, no matter how high she ranks, she can't compare to the hearty battle with Xie Lingjun.

"Congratulations!" Mei Jiu patted Qiu Fei on the shoulder, "You are one rank taller than me, but I don't think I am inferior to you. But no matter what, we have finally made it to today."

Qiu Fei was so excited that she was incoherent: "My grandma, I also have today!"

Mei Jiu took her hand away calmly, and wanted to walk aside, away from Qiu Fei, a disgraceful friend.

Qiu Fei didn't see Mei Jiu's disgust, so she grabbed Mei Jiu, slammed her fist on the opponent's shoulder fiercely, looked up to the sky and smiled and said: "My grandma! Grandma has a spirit in the sky, have you seen it! You Granddaughter is promising! Promising!"

"Calm down." Mei Jiu said in pain, the joy in his heart had been washed away.

Qiu Fei's fist!

Iron Fist!

"Qiu Fei, your current behavior is far from what you said. You don't give your grandma any face at all. It's a shame to throw it at grandma's house." After Mei Jiu poured cold water on Qiu Fei, he made up the knife silently, "It's still Say that you are promising, look at your potential."

Qiu Fei calmed down instantly, nodded and said: "Yes, you are right! A real woman, the Mount Tai collapses in front of her but her color does not change, and the elk is on the left without moving her eyes."

Meijiu nodded pretentiously, and then—

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Mei Jiu laughed out loud, and pulled Qiu Fei's sleeve: "I can't hold it back anymore, fuck his calmness. That damn girl Wang Lingyue, she tricked me into pursuing her by seeing her sneering in front of me. Xuri Dabi No .1, can I see her? I will not be on the same level with her in the future, I have a master!"

Seeing Mei Jiu's ranking, Xie Lingjun thought that she would never leave him in the previous life, and was about to go up to congratulate her, but when he saw her laughing wildly, he immediately moved away as if nothing had happened.

Now this beaming Mei Jiu is completely opposite to the woman who was frowning in her previous life and tried her best to hide it in front of him.It was very different from the woman who had just been reborn, mouthed trash at herself, and spoke with mockery.

How many masks can a person have?

How many other masks did he see?

"What is the meaning of my rebirth?" Xie Lingjun looked towards the sky, his heart full of expectations for the future.

Everything looks so beautiful now.

Just as Xie Lingjun was deep in thought, a mocking voice came from behind——

"Hu Li, I really don't know what it means for a person like you to participate in the Rising Sun Competition again. If I were you, I would have given up early."

Xie Lingjun frowned, and when he heard the mocking voice, he looked back.Ever since he entered the Realm of Self, he has been very sensitive to other people's voices, breaths, and gazes.

The person who spoke out the ridicule was Zhao Dong, the fourth disciple of elder Zheng Sinan.

Zhao Dong entered Qingyang Pavilion 66 years ago, participated in the Rising Sun Competition 63 years ago, and ranked third, and was accepted as an apprentice by Zheng Sinan, who was in charge of discipline.

Zhao Dong looked at Hu Li, clasped his arms, with a sneer on his face, and pointed at Hu Li with one hand as he spoke.

"Look at you, don't you look like a lost dog? When I first came to Qingyang Pavilion, you were an inner sect disciple, right? I come to participate in the Rising Sun Competition every three years. How come decades have passed and there is still no competition?" Into the top five? You have been going to the academy for so many years, and the elders are very familiar with you. If they really fancy you, will they let you participate in the Rising Sun Competition again and again?"

Hu Li lowered his head and did not refute Zhao Dong's words.

This year, he is ranked sixth, only one place short, and if he advances by one place, he will be able to apprentice and learn real swordsmanship.This is already the moment he is closest to No.5.

But does he still have the courage?Three years later, he successfully ranked in the top five, so that's okay; if the result still hasn't changed, is it even worse than No.6?

Three years later and three years later, and he had reached his limit.

Xie Lingjun looked at Hu Li and realized that Hu Li was on the verge of collapse.

unbearable.

There were many things that Xie Lingjun couldn't bear.One of them is that sword masters underestimate their own swords, and the other is that sword masters belittle other people's swords.

——Any sword cultivator who desires his own sword deserves respect.

Zhao Dong's ridicule is still pressing on Hu Li continuously: "If I were you, I would have given up a long time ago. Wouldn't it be good to live drunk and dream of death in this world? If you have to pin your life on a cold sword, It's not a waste!"

Xie Lingjun's hand was unconsciously resting on the saber at his waist.

What a lonely thing it is to cultivate a sword.

People in the secular world are warm and fragrant, with beautiful women in their arms and fine wine in their throats, wouldn't it be pleasant?Why dedicate one's life to a cold and ruthless sword?Is it possible to achieve eternal life after exhausting one's life?After ascension, what is it?

It was the first time Xie Lingjun thought about this question in his two lifetimes.

He quickly gave his answer - no need to think.Some people love beautiful people, some people like beautiful scenery, some people like fine wine; some people like skeletons, withering, and bitterness.

As for Xie Lingjun, he loves swords.

Xie Lingjun walked up to Hu Li and asked softly, "Hu Li?"

"Yes." Hu Li clenched his fists tightly, and when he heard Xie Lingjun's question, he raised his head, clenched his fists even more tightly, and his face was full of unwillingness.

Seeing Hu Li's expression, Xie Lingjun felt relieved.Hu Li was not defeated because of this, he was still unwilling!

Xie Lingjun said: "Before today, I have spent more years in Qingyang Pavilion than you. I am just a handyman, and I have been called trash before..."

Xie Lingjun is a waste, this is something that would never appear in his most bizarre dreams.

But such a ridiculous thing happened to him.

Xie Lingjun said indifferently: "I am not on the top of the list today, so I am qualified to tell you and tell you empty words that hard work can make up for one's weakness."

Not all sword cultivators are like Xie Lingjun and Shen Zhengze.The reason why there are four words "Heavenly Wizards" is because behind the geniuses, there are countless unknown and ordinary people, which make them extraordinary talents.

Xie Lingjun said: "Every moment I swing my sword, I am very happy. Is it the same for you?"

Who said that the meaning of sword repair is to be strong?The strength of the sword repairer and the depth of his realm are all just the feedback of his love for swords.

Although there are still so many sincere, sword-loving people who don't get this feedback.

but--

Ordinary does not mean mediocre.

"Yes." Hu Li's eyes glowed like fluorescent lights in the dark night, "I'm very happy. My happiness doesn't come from being accepted as an apprentice by someone, or from my ranking, it's just because I love swords." .”

Seeing Hu Li, Xie Lingjun suddenly understood where he was wrong in his previous life.

He was curious about Liu Shaoqing's sword, but was kept in the dark by Liu Shaoqing. The person he should really make friends with is the sword cultivator who loves swords!

Xie Lingjun smiled lightly, and said: "After entering the academy to study, I will sit next to you." After speaking, afraid that Hu Li would dislike his tough tone, he added: "Is it okay?"

Hu Li has participated in the Rising Sun Competition many times, and many of his contemporaries have gone down the mountain, but he is the only one who has not given up, so he is ridiculed by many people.He didn't expect that the top leader of Li Ke Wei Lianying, who fought against the ancient blue dragon, would say such words to him.

Hu Li was stunned for a moment, and he agreed heavily: "Okay!"

What a blessing!

The author has something to say: Yesterday I made a mistake in setting the time of saving manuscripts, and put it in 2190, Orz, kneel down.

After attacking, you will make many, very good, and loyal friends.

This piece was originally intended to describe the story of Liu Shaoqing's love for Xie Lingjun, but Xie Lingjun's indifference to him. After finishing writing, it exceeded [-] words, so I had to put it in the next chapter.

Xie Lingjun (O__O): There is no need to do such a great gift.
