Clan Elder Li Wen, amongst the few dozen elders in the inner sect of Mountain Sect, was considered unremarkable. His cultivation was average, and could only accept Dan Profound Realm middle stage, and taking two direct disciples, although his talent was not bad, but compared to the disciples of the other clan elders, he was still lacking by far.

He was addicted to alcohol and was a beauty. Even though many people looked down on him, because of his n.o.ble ident.i.ty, and the fact that he had gone through life and death situations with Sect Master Sima Yi, not many people dared to offend him.

The man was called Lin Yu, and the woman was called Ye Yu. Both of them possessed Middle stage of Mysterious Foundation Stage cultivation, and although it was not bad for their age, this was a Mountain Sect where many geniuses gathered, moreover, it was the inner sect of the Mountain Sect. This made the two of them ordinary.

Lin Yu and Ye Yu both did not expect that at this critical juncture, their Master would actually accept a disciple who was even considered a Body Cultivator. They had heard that there were some people who specialized in cultivating the body and mind and could be very strong, but the number of people who could be this strong was simply too few. Moreover, that cute and beautiful young girl did not look like a Body Cultivator, but was more or less a beautiful ornament.

In their hearts, the two of them had their doubts about Li Wen"s intentions, because they understood their master too well, and knew that he belonged to the type of person who had an immortal heart. Maybe the little girl was kidnapped, so when they looked at the cute and innocent girl, sympathy filled their eyes.

And at this moment, the three of them were standing in front of Li Wen.

"Cough cough, tomorrow is the compet.i.tion"s preliminary round. The outer sect compet.i.tion two days ago has ended. The top one hundred places can enter the inner sect. Moreover, they will also be able to partic.i.p.ate in tomorrow"s compet.i.tion." Xu Xuan nodded, looked at the three of them and continued: "I also know the general strength of the three of you, and will do my best! As long as we don"t get eliminated in the first round, that"s enough. "

When Lin Yu and Ye Yu heard this, they also couldn"t help but secretly let out a sigh of relief. If it was before, if they didn"t enter the top thousand, they"d be scolded to death!

There were a total of 100 stages. In the first few rounds, the compet.i.tion would have people with similar cultivation levels competing against each other, and there would only be one chance before elimination.

In other words, after the first round, 2000 people would be eliminated. As for the remaining 2000 people, they would then proceed to the next round!

The rules for the next round were the same. If one won, one could enter the top one thousand. Those who entered the top one thousand would receive some rewards.

This was how it went. However, when there were only one hundred and twenty-five people left, after the fifth round of the compet.i.tion, the five-man group compet.i.tion would begin. The final position would be eliminated and four people would advance to the top one hundred.

It was not an easy thing to enter the top one hundred. Basically, only very few people in the middle stages or Mysterious Foundation Stage Initial Phase could enter the top one hundred, or at the very least, the people with the highest level of Mysterious Base Realm, and those with abnormal fighting strength would be able to enter the top one hundred.

After that, it was time for the three days of rest. After the rest, it was time for the top one hundred. After the great compet.i.tion, there would only be ten people remaining and these ten people would be the top ten.

Then, it was the three days of rest. After the rest, it would be the finals of the top ten!

Of course, from rank one thousand down, as long as one was promoted, there would be rewards. However, the higher your rank was, the more precious the prize would be, especially since the first place would give you a chance to enter the forbidden area of the sect.

"Thank you Master for understanding, Junior Sister and I will definitely do our best!"

Lin Yu said in a serious tone.

"Mm, you guys can leave!"

Xu Xuan waved his hand, signalling the three of them to leave.

After the three of them left, Xu Xuan looked outside the door, a smile appearing on his face. Duan Choufeng should have known that he was here, just that, he never thought that he would disguise as the elder of Mountain Sect, and that Xiao Qin, the mission to stop the venomous demon in Xiao Qin"s body, would fall onto Liuyue"s body.

"Hehe, venomous demon, your plan is doomed to fail! And Duan Choufeng, just you wait, your life is at last in a few days! "

Laughing, Xu Xuan couldn"t help but mutter to himself as he slightly clenched his fists. Three years of time had finally arrived, and he had also grown up step by step. From that trash back then, he had grown to his current state.

On the second day, as the sky slowly brightened, the huge plaza above the Mountain Sect"s Chao Yang Peak was already filled with people. All of them rubbed their fists and rubbed their palms, eager to give it a try.

"Tsk, tsk, one year ago, Duan Hao died, it"s such a pity, the five tigers of the mountain, now there are only four tigers left, who knows who will become fifth ranked this year!"

Some disciples started to discuss. One year ago, Duan Hao died, and apparently, no one had forgotten about it, especially Xu Xuan, who had killed Duan Hao, and became a legend in the Mountain Sect. After killing Duan Hao and the others, it was as if he had disappeared.

"I feel like he should be the person who ranked sixth in the previous batch, the guy called w.a.n.g An. It"s said that his strength has increased by quite a lot. Tsk tsk, I think highly of him."

Some people started to guess who the top few would be this year, but no matter who it was, after some guessing, they were basically the people who were near the top of the previous disciple compet.i.tion.

Duan Choufeng also went to the plaza early in the morning, and as he listened to the people"s discussion, his eyes became slightly red, especially when he looked at the compet.i.tion stage, the image of Duan Hao on the stage last time, appeared in his mind one by one.

"Hao"er, that kid will definitely come. I will avenge you!"

Slowly closing his eyes, Duan Choufeng"s heart was filled with tears.

As this was only the first round of the Small Compet.i.tion, thus, even the higher ups of the Mountain Sect, especially Sima Yi, would not come to watch of this compet.i.tion, and the people in charge of hosting it were only a few Protectors.

Soon, the compet.i.tion started. According to the list in the booklet, there were four thousand people, one hundred arenas, and each arena. There would be forty people divided into twenty groups, and with this, the first round of the compet.i.tion would be completed in a day.
