My apprentices who cheated their masters

Chapter 103 Five-Year Competition
Time flies, another three months have passed, and Yaoguang Peak has a completely new look.

The people arranged by the sect master finally finished the work.

Among the ancient buildings, the most conspicuous and majestic one is naturally the main hall named Yaoguang Hall.

That is where the Peak Master works, and next to it is the reception room, which is spacious and bright.

Further back, there are several courtyards, which are the residences of the peak masters and elders. The two attic buildings next to them are VIP buildings for entertaining guests.

Further outside there are several rows of houses, which are the residences of disciples...

In addition, there is a martial arts arena, which is integrated into the library. There is a building in the arena and an arena in front of the building.

Chen Haoran waved his hand: "Choose the residence you like!"

As a result, they all chose the courtyard closest to him.

These courtyards were originally prepared for the elders in the peak. How can there be any elders now?Stay wherever you want!
No, according to the convention, as long as you break through to the golden elixir stage, you can become an elder within the peak or leave the mountain where you are and become an elder within the sect.

Now, Jian Ruhai is in the middle stage of Golden Core, so he is naturally qualified to become an elder.

However, it is not convenient for him to report it now.Moreover, there are only two or three big and small kittens in the entire Yaoguang Peak. There is no point in saying that there are no elders.

At this point, Chen Haoran lived in Yaoguang Peak and devoted himself to cultivation.

In addition to the "Dragon Stinging Technique" and "Yao Guang Mixing Technique" that he majored in, there are also "The Army-Breaking Sword Technique" and "Tiangang Five Thunder Zhengfa". The most important thing is to study the "Tian Escape Sword Technique".

In my free time, I give advice to my disciples, drink tea, make some spiritual food, and brew some spiritual wine.In his previous life, he just stayed in the Taoist temple all day long, occasionally treating people who came to seek medical treatment. He was a homebody, so he didn't find it boring and unbearable.

Before you know it, more than two years have passed, and it's time for the sect competition that happens every five years.

At this time in Yaoguang Peak, 25-year-old Jian Ruhai is in the middle stage of elixir formation, 25-year-old Cheng Yunxiang has completed elixir formation, and 23-year-old Xu Shirang has also completed elixir formation.

17-year-old Ye Feng has reached the middle stage of foundation building, 16-year-old Ke Qingxiang has also reached the middle stage of foundation building, and even outer disciple Wang Delin has broken through to the early stage of foundation building.

Are these useless spiritual roots in the eyes of others?They are clearly geniuses!

As for Chen Haoran, more than two years have passed and he is still in the middle stage of Golden Elixir, with no breakthrough.This is normal. He has three spiritual roots and needs to complete the five elements. It is more troublesome than a person with five spiritual roots. Not to mention that he has not made a breakthrough for more than two years, even if he has not made a breakthrough for 20 years, it is normal.

Unlike his eldest disciple Jian Ruhai, he can actually break through to the late stage of Jindan. However, he feels that his previous cultivation has exploded and his foundation is not solid enough. He has been consolidating the foundation for more than two years, and he actually included the contents of "Basic Magic Encyclopedia" All the spells have been practiced to the level of proficiency, and most basic spells can be "instantly cast".

At this time, Chen Haoran had gained something from studying "Tian Escape Sword Technique" and was at a very important juncture. He no longer cared about the sect competition.

All the disciples went out to participate in or watch the competition, leaving him alone on the mountain.

"The Heavenly Escape Sword Technique is a non-physical sword. It is made of Qi and is used as a sword. It does not belong to the Qi Sword. It is Ji Shen who believes that the sword technique is not among the Five Elements. Instead, it is dominated by Yuan Shen and gathers the innate Qi to forge it into a sword. It’s called a divine sword! When dispersed, it becomes Qi; when gathered, it becomes a sword. It can appear and hide freely. It is mysterious and unpredictable. It can cut shapes and destroy gods."

Chen Haoran, who was muttering to himself, was now in the courtyard where he lived, with his eyes slightly closed, the index and middle fingers of his right hand stretched out together, and his thumb pressed on the nails of the ring finger and little finger bent toward the palm. It was a common sword. Jue', the right hand holding the sword jue was making slow and steady gestures in front of him.

Either stab, chop, tease, sweep, point, or collapse.
In the eyes of people who don't understand, it's just making blind gestures.Because his movements only have intention and no complete form, people with insufficient skills cannot tell what he is doing.

On the other side, Jian Ruhai replaced her master on the rostrum, and together with other peak masters, palace masters, elders, etc., saluted the sect leader Cheng Dehong.

Everyone was shocked by Jian Ruhai's cultivation. Cheng Dehong asked with shock in his eyes: "How did you break through to the middle stage of the Golden Core so quickly?"

Jian Ruhai's expression was as usual, and he had already prepared a plan, and replied: "The disciple was seriously injured in the mine before, and was saved by the master's hands when his life was hanging by a thread. The disciple died once, and gained some understanding of life and death. Since then, he has practiced spiritual practice. The journey has been quite smooth, and with Master’s careful guidance, I have reached my current state without even realizing it.”

"Between life and death, there is great terror, so it is not impossible to gain some understanding."

"However, this understanding is too terrifying. He has five spiritual roots."

"I see, Bishop Yaoguang Peak is still good."

Everyone started talking in low voices, and then an inappropriate voice sounded, with a strong sour taste in his tone: "I see, Yao Guangfeng must have got some incredible treasure, otherwise how could it be possible?" To create a middle-stage golden elixir in such a short period of time? Master Yaoguang Peak is too ignorant of the overall situation. If this treasure is contributed, our Seven Star Sect may be able to create many more golden elixir stages, and even help others achieve Yuan Dynasty. Not even babies!"

The person who spoke was none other than the Peak Master of Kaiyang Peak, Cheng Zhiliang, who had never dealt with Chen Haoran very well.

Now five years have passed, and he is still in the early stage of Jindan cultivation.

Zhao Shaotang, the master of Dan Palace, couldn't help but said: "Master Kaiyang Peak, you can't spread rumors just because you didn't make a breakthrough after eating the 'Five Elements Return to Origin' spiritual food package made by Junior Brother Chen, right?"

Previously, Zhao Shaotang sold the 'Five Elements Return to Origin' spiritual food package for Chen Haoran. Of the 47 eaters in the Seven Star Sect, 38 successfully achieved breakthroughs and only nine failed to achieve breakthroughs. The success rate reached [-]%!
The effect is very significant.

However, Cheng Zhiliang was one of the nine unlucky people.

Everyone looked at Cheng Zhiliang with an inexplicable meaning in their eyes.

Cheng Zhiliang ignored Zhao Shaotang and said to Jian Ruhai: "Where is your master? Why didn't he come? Could it be that he secretly broke through to the Nascent Soul stage and couldn't explain it so he didn't dare to come?"

Jian Ruhai knew that the other party was not on good terms with his master. In the past, he could not say anything. He was not as senior as others and his cultivation level was not as good as others. He was not qualified to speak. But now, he was a small level higher than the other party.

As the top disciple of Yaoguang Peak, he naturally wanted to speak for his master. He said seriously: "Returning to Master Kaiyang Peak, my master is in seclusion to study swordsmanship, so I am here on his behalf. Please don't Random guesses and baseless remarks! My master’s cultivation at this time is still in the middle stage of the Golden Core, and has not broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.”

"I respect you as an elder, but please don't forget that I, Yaoguang Peak, do not belong to your Kaiyang Peak!"

"If my master breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, do you still dare to ask my master like this in person?"

As soon as he said these words, Cheng Zhiliang was speechless.

If Chen Haoran really became the Nascent Soul Lord, then he really didn't dare to say anything. After all, according to the rules of the Seven Star Sect, those who break through to the Nascent Soul stage will automatically become the Supreme Elder of the sect.

Of course, you can also give up becoming the supreme elder of the sect and stay on the mountain where you are originally and become the supreme elder of the mountain where you are, but no one has done so yet.

Becoming the supreme elder of a sect is not only about controlling the sect, but the most important thing is that you can get support from the entire sect and have more resources.And if you want to break through to a higher level of cultivation, you will naturally need more resources. Who is willing to give up?
After the interlude, although everyone was still whispering to others about Jian Ruhai's breakthrough speed, which was as fast as flying a flying sword, no one said anything more.

Next, the competition officially begins.
