The game starts soon.

Each sect sends four disciples to compete according to the method of sixteen to eight, eight to four, and four to two. The strength of the sect is determined according to the sects of the top three disciples in the final.

The method of the game is also very simple. The two disciples who are facing each other set up formations respectively, and then break each other's formations. After an incense stick of time, the winner will be judged according to the degree of damage and the level of the remaining formations.

Because the formation competition is about the formation, there is a strict rule that the formation master cannot be attacked during the competition.Someone used to be so opportunistic, and then the rules were changed.

Shen Qing'an was not the first to play, but he had been standing quietly in the center of the team, observing every move of the opponent's disciples on the field, his expression was unusually clear.

Looking at Shen Qing'an's state, Gong Fuyu couldn't help shaking his fan and said, "Your elder brother seems to be quite clear-headed, he shouldn't be acting impulsively."

Shen Qingtang nodded, a little relieved, but more and more suspicious.

If Shen Qing'an is sober, then what happened to force him to make such a decision?

While Shen Qingtang was thinking, the first match was over, Shouyangzong lost to Faxiangzong.

This result came out, and not many people questioned it. After all, although Shouyangzong has the strongest comprehensive strength, it is still inferior to Faxiangzong in the field of formation.

Then, the second game, the third game...

When it was Shen Qing'an's turn, the disciples of the Qingyu Sword Sect who played in front lost one game and won one game, with mediocre results.

As for Shen Qing'an's match, many of his disciples left the venue, took a break or drank some water.

Not too many elders of the sect came forward to stop it, after all, there really seemed to be no suspense in this matter.

At this moment, as soon as the referee announced the start, Shen Qing'an started drawing the formation at the same time as the Fa Xiangzong disciple.

The formation drawn by Shen Qing'an is very simple, it is the yellow-level defensive formation, the seven-star Xuanwu formation, and basically every formation disciple who has just entered the foundation will learn this formation.

Originally, no one paid attention to this competition, but after Shen Qing'an drew this formation, the expressions of the surrounding disciples were a little bit wrong, and they couldn't help discussing quietly.

"Is this kid just here to pick up girls in Shouyangzong? Isn't paddling too obvious?"

"I feel like it too, Seven Star Black Tortoise Formation? Come on, let's be funny."

"Hey, but the disciple of the Qingyu Sword Sect who used to have a strong formation suddenly had an accident, so it's normal that he can't find a substitute."

Everyone talked a lot, but they didn't disturb Shen Qing'an's formation.

Shen Qingtang, on the other hand, frowned slightly when he saw Shen Qing'an draw the seven-star basalt formation, and then he pursed his lips and smiled faintly.

If it is really what he thinks, Shen Qing'an has come prepared, the opponent may not necessarily win.

But Fa Xiangzong's disciples frowned when they saw that Shen Qing'an had drawn the Seven-Star Xuanwu Formation, and they didn't concentrate so much on setting up the formation.

According to his original idea, he planned to set up an earth-level formation, but now looking at Shen Qing'an's actions, he thought about it, and changed to a mysterious formation.

Anyway, what Shen Qing'an drew was a yellow-level formation, and it would be too wasteful to use an earth-level formation to deal with it.

After both of them had arranged the formation, the referee lit the incense.

In a short time, the two players cracked each other's formations, and the one who was cracked first was eliminated first. If the cracking was not completed, the integrity of the remaining formations would determine who would advance.

But after Shen Qing'an arranged the formation, he had no intention of moving, and just sat in his formation.

Seeing Shen Qing'an like this, Fa Xiangzong's disciple couldn't help but frown.

It is not that there are no such disciples in the previous formation competitions. Because the rank of their own formations is low, they will not attack others and guard their own.

The disciple of Fa Xiangzong was silent for a while, but he didn't make a move - anyway, he was sure to win.

At this moment, Shen Qing'an sat quietly in his formation, even closed his eyes and began to rest.

old at ease.

The discussion in the field gradually increased.

Those who criticized Shen Qing'an for delaying time also commented that Fa Xiangzong's disciples were timid.

In the end, Fa Xiangzong's disciples lost their composure, and wanted to end the match early, so they jumped up and attacked Shen Qing'an's formation head-on.

The seven-star basalt formation is the most unpretentious defensive formation, but there is no way to crack it cleverly, it can only be broken hard.

The disciple of Fa Xiangzong gathered [-]% of the spiritual energy in his palm, and with a bang, he blasted Shen Qing'an's seven-star basalt formation into a long crack.

When this scene appeared, the expressions of all the disciples watching the game changed slightly.

Because they all knew the cultivation level of Fa Xiangzong's disciples, and also knew how powerful this palm was, but they didn't expect that it only blasted a crack in Shen Qing'an's Seven Star Xuanwu Formation.

It seems that Shen Qing'an's level is not that bad?

"But so what, a yellow-level formation, the lowest defensive formation, is useless no matter how well it is drawn."

As soon as the sarcastic voice fell, the situation in the field changed again.

Shen Qing'an waited until Fa Xiangzong finished his slap, then opened his eyes calmly, and began to use his spiritual power.

The earth aura exuded a faint yellow light, very gentle and simple, but it only repaired the big crack blasted by the disciples of Fa Xiangzong in just an instant.

Disciple of Fa Xiangzong:? ? ?

Onlookers: ? ? ?

This time, the discussion gradually became louder.

Only then did everyone realize Shen Qing'an's intelligence.

But what if everyone thinks they are smarter?But a yellow-level formation, even if it can't be broken, it can't be anything.

As for the disciples of Fa Xiangzong, Shen Qing'an put him down in such a provocative way, and his expression suddenly became weird. At this moment, he frowned, snorted coldly, and attacked Shen Qing'an's formation crazily .

Trying to break Shen Qing'an's formation through intensive attacks!

However, the formation commonly called Xuanwu has no other characteristics, that is, it is thick and hard.

While Fa Xiangzong's disciples were attacking, Shen Qing'an was repairing at a leisurely pace, and in the end, the speed of destruction and repair was even at the same speed.

The onlookers in the arena looked dumbfounded again.

At this time, the result seems to be unimportant, just watching the fun.

The disciple of Faxiangzong attacked, but found that he couldn't take it off. In the end, his face darkened, and he slowly retreated to his formation when the incense was about to run out.

Anyway, no matter what, he still wins, so why care about whether it looks good or not?

All the monks also felt the same, but felt that it was not lively to watch, which was a pity.

But no one expected that, seeing that the stick of incense had burned to the end and the referees were walking slowly to the front of the stage to announce the result, Shen Qing'an from the seven-star basalt formation raised his hand and slowly made up for it in the center of the formation. Last few strokes.

For a moment, there was a yellow light.

The Tiankui Xuanwu Formation was formed.

Everyone: ? ? ? ! ! !

The Tiankui Xuanwu Formation is the simplest of all Earth-level formations, but...it is also an Earth-level formation.

It's still one level higher than the Xuan-level formation drawn by Fa Xiangzong's disciples.

At this time, everyone finally realized why Shen Qing'an had been sitting cross-legged in the center of the formation.

The Tiankui Xuanwu Formation was derived from the Seven Star Xuanwu Formation. If Shen Qing'an had drawn the Tiankui Xuanwu Formation from the very beginning, that Fa Xiangzong disciple would not have taken it lightly and only drew a Xuan level formation to deal with it perfunctorily.

Therefore, during the burning of the incense, it doesn't matter whether the two of them do it or not, as long as Shen Qing'an completes the Tiankui Xuanwu Formation in a sneaky way, it will be considered a victory.

Good guy.

All I can say is good guy.

Seeing this scene, the referee was also shocked by Shen Qing'an's coquettish manipulation, and forgot to announce the result for a moment.

It was the Faxiangzong disciple who jumped out with a flushed face and said angrily, "He cheated! This is opportunism!"

As soon as this sentence was uttered, discussions erupted in the originally silent arena.

On the one hand, Qingyu Jianzong scolded Faxiangzong for not wanting to gamble, and on the other hand, Faxiangzong scolded Qingyu Jianzong for petty theft, which ruined the reputation of cultivators.

For a while, there was a lot of noise in the field.

Only Shen Qing'an himself stood in the formation with a calm expression, as if everything that happened had nothing to do with him.

But after all the quarrels, everyone couldn't help but want to wait for a result.

After all, Shen Qing'an's approach is indeed not very authentic, but... it complies with the rules.

It's just a loophole in the rules.

I don't know if those elders in the jury will deny Shen Qing'an's approach?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look towards the judges' seat.

Seeing everyone's eyes looking over, before the other elders spoke, Gong Fuyu raised his eyebrows and slapped his fan, looked at the extremely dissatisfied Fa Xiangzong disciple and said: "I would like to bet and admit defeat, a foundation-building eight-story, that's all!" Can't afford to lose?"

"Besides, if you were to play against each other in this situation, you would have already lost, so why do you care if they are opportunistic?"

Hearing Gong Fuyu's words, the eyes of Fa Xiangzong's disciples changed slightly, and the expression of the whole person suddenly turned gray.

Shen Qingtang who was at the side couldn't help but silently smiled when she saw Gong Fuyu speak.

Sure enough, once Gong Fuyu spoke like this, no one else dared to speak again.

After all, Gong Fuyu's status is here, who would dare to make a mistake?

Gong Mingze didn't come today, Gong Fuyu was the biggest.

In the end, the referee looked at the other elders and saw that no one had made a sound, so he coughed and said, "In this battle of formations, Qingyu Sword Sect and Shen Qing'an win."

As soon as the referee said these words, Qingyu Jianzong immediately cheered!

There was silence on Fa Xiangzong's side.

Obviously not convinced by this result, but there is nothing to do.

But at this time, no one noticed that Shen Qing'an raised his head and stared in shock at Shen Qingtang who was beside Gong Fuyu, showing a somewhat joyful and relieved expression.

·

As soon as the game was over, there were curious monks who immediately wanted to find Shen Qing An to get close, but unexpectedly, by the time everyone found the exit to exit, Shen Qing An was already gone.

The disciples of the Qingyu Sword Sect ran away, and so did the disciples of other sects.

It turned out that it was Shen Qingtang who had anticipated this a long time ago, took Gong Fuyu's warrant, and quietly took Shen Qing'an away.

It's just that Shen Qingtang didn't expect that when Shen Qing'an saw him suddenly, his expression was extremely excited, and he hugged him tightly.

After coaxing him for a while, Shen Qing'an slowly calmed down.

In order to avoid other people's eyes and ears, Shen Qingtang quietly brought Shen Qing'an to Gong Fuyu's courtyard.

Shen Qing'an calmed down a little at the moment, and Shen Qingtang poured Shen Qing'an a cup of tea.Only then did Shen Qingtang notice that the stubble on Shen Qing'an's face was not shaved, it was black and blue, no wonder he looked so haggard.

Looking at Shen Qing'an's description, Shen Qingtang said with distress and concern: "What happened to my brother recently? How did he become like this, and why did he suddenly enter the competition?"

When Shen Qing'an heard Shen Qingtang's words, his expression froze slightly.

But immediately after taking a look at Shen Qingtang's good complexion, Shen Qing'an calmed down again, sighed in relief, and said: "There are some things that I didn't want to tell you, for fear that you would be affected and your cultivation would be unstable. But now look You're fine, brother, don't worry."

Shen Qingtang's heart skipped a beat: "What's the matter?"

After a brief silence.

"Mother is sick." Shen Qing'an said in a deep voice, "The illness is very strange, and the doctors in Lingyang City can't cure it. Although it's not life-threatening for the time being, I always feel uneasy, and I think it's better to take them over as soon as possible. .”

When Shen Qingtang heard Shen Qing'an's words, she immediately opened her eyes slightly and said, "Why didn't brother tell me?"

If he had said it earlier, he might be able to ask Gong Fuyu to take over his parents.

Shen Qing'an coughed helplessly, and said: "I also saw you today, so I know that you are doing well now. Before...you didn't know how they passed it on."

Shen Qingtang frowned: "What do you mean?"

Shen Qing'an took a sip of tea and said with a wry smile: "Maybe it's jealousy. A few days ago, I heard from them that you, as the disciple of the palace chief, had to compete, so you were forced to build a foundation, and your talent was almost useless. I went to look for you several times, but I couldn't see anyone, almost thought you were under house arrest..."

"But I'm not favored in the court. There's nothing I can do. I can only think about whether I can pass the ranking competition."

When Shen Qing'an spoke at this time, his expression was very calm, and the narration did not bring too much emotion.

But Shen Qingtang was shocked when he heard Shen Qing'an's words, and then his mood gradually became complicated.

Cui Yongsi definitely didn't want others to disturb him, so he stopped Shen Qing'an. At that time, Shen Qing'an knew that his mother was sick, and thought that his younger brother was being treated harshly by the sect, and he was even excluded by the disciples in the courtyard.

If you think about it, you will know that life must be extremely difficult...

Shen Qingtang's mood became more and more complicated.

It's no wonder that Shen Qing'an, who has always been calm and self-sufficient, was so excited when he saw him just now.

Shen Qing'an looked at Shen Qingtang's expression, and smiled helplessly at this moment, reached out and touched Shen Qingtang's head and said, "It's good to find out that it's a misunderstanding now. I think the dean of the palace treats you well, and your cultivation base is also stable. Don't worry."

"With our hard work, we should be able to bring our parents to Qingyu City as soon as possible."

Shen Qingtang pursed her lips, and said softly: "Brother has really worked hard these days."

Shen Qing'an smiled lightly, with a very relieved look on his face: "It's nothing but hard work, and it's a good thing if you're happy now."

Seeing Shen Qing'an's smile, Shen Qingtang felt a little uncomfortable, but still smiled.

Then, Shen Qingtang looked at the stubble on Shen Qing'an's face and the messy bun, and said in a low voice: "Brother, come and sit down, I'll help you shave your beard."

Shen Qing'an was stunned for a moment, and then said kindly: "Okay."

·

A basin of clear water is placed in a porcelain basin, quietly reflecting the sunlight and swaying clearly.

Shen Qing'an closed his eyes and lay on Shen Qingtang's lap, allowing Shen Qingtang to lower his head, carefully shaving off the stubble on his chin little by little.

After being scratched for a while, Shen Qing'an said with a faint smile: "Speaking of which, I was still looking at an apartment in Qingyu City a few days ago, but I was too shy to buy a good one."

Shen Qingtang was taken aback for a moment, then asked softly, "How much brother do you need?"

"Five hundred middle-grade spirit stones."

After finishing speaking, Shen Qing'an said again: "In fact, the family does not lack this money, but I thought, if my parents come, I should also pay this money."

Shen Qingtang smiled silently: "I still have five hundred middle-grade spirit stones. When I go back, I will accompany my brother to look at the house."

"Okay."

For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely soft and peaceful.

After a while, Shen Qing'an suddenly frowned and said, "But I haven't seen Lin Jinyu in Jianzong recently, Qingtang, have you seen him?"

When Lin Jinyu was mentioned, Shen Qingtang's eyebrows twitched. He just shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him either."

Shen Qing'an was silent for a moment and said: "Maybe I'm overthinking."

"what happened?"

After a while, Shen Qing'an breathed out slightly and said: "Father has already finished liquidating the traitors planted by the Lin family before, but I still didn't expect that one of them was hidden so deeply. Half of my mother's illness is related to her."

"who is it?"

"Aunt Tian."

Shen Qingtang's hand holding the razor trembled unconsciously, always feeling that something was wrong.

On the other hand, Shen Qing'an felt that Shen Qingtang's emotions were wrong, and comforted him in turn: "But it's okay, now our family has established the foundation, Lin Jinyu has not yet established the foundation, and when his parents take over, he will never want to make any splashes. "
