Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Chapter 175

The family competition went very smoothly. There were the largest number of minors in the field, more than a hundred people, but most of them just came to increase their experience, so it only took three days to complete the six-to-three semi-finals and enter the finals.

It has been nearly 500 years since the Song clan was founded. The four generations of "immortal" monks have gradually withered away, and now there are only less than two hands left.

The fifth generation with the character "Lu" and the sixth generation with the character character "长" have become the mainstay of the family and gradually entered the leadership core, while the seven generations with the character "青" below them are also thriving.

Most of the underage monks in the family are from the "old" and "young" generations. The three people who entered the finals of this competition can be said to be the best of the best from these two generations.

Except for Song Qingxi, who was outstanding, the performance of the others was very impressive, and even exceeded Song Changsheng's psychological expectations, especially Song Qingxia, who was only at the fifth level of Qi training.

Song Changsheng originally thought that it would be good if she could enter the top ten, but he did not expect that the other party gave him another surprise, defeating a clan brother who was at the sixth level of Qi training to advance to the top three.

In addition to this dazzling dark horse, there was another person who appeared beyond everyone's expectations. That was Song Yulong's son, Song Muqing. He was only fifteen years old and already at the seventh level of Qi training. He was Song Qingxi's biggest opponent in this battle. opponent.

Although Song Yulong and Song Yushi were both born in the ancestral line, they were also included in the Song family tree, and the same was true for Song Muqing. Essentially, they were all one family.

So when Song Muqing proposed to participate in the competition, Song Changsheng agreed without thinking. On the one hand, it was to express the family's attitude, and on the other hand, it was also to put some pressure on Song Qingxi. After all, she had won too easily along the way.

"Fifth Uncle, in your opinion, who is stronger or weaker, Mu Qing or Qingxia?" Song Changsheng asked with a smile, looking at the two people standing opposite each other on the stage.

Song Luzhou leaned back on his seat without any image, and said without hesitation: "Although Mu Qing lacks actual combat experience, his cultivation level has the advantage after all. In the end, it depends on how far Qingxia can push him."

Regarding his analysis, Song Changsheng nodded silently. Song Qingxia was indeed a dark horse, but her starting point was too low. If she could enjoy the same resources as the other two, her cultivation level would definitely not be lower than theirs.

But gold will always shine. Song Qingxia has proved it with her strength. No matter what the outcome of this battle is, she has entered the sight of the Song family's senior management and will definitely receive more resources in the future.

Everyone thought that Song Muqing was sure to win this battle, but as the person involved, he only felt a lot of pressure.

Song Qingxia's cultivation was at a disadvantage, so she gave up defense and focused on offense. Her moves were fierce and her angles were tricky, forcing Song Muqing to panic for a while.

But he was not stupid. He gradually gained a firm foothold in the ring and began to gradually take the initiative to attack. For a time, the situation on the battlefield began to shift, and he was finally defeated.

"You win." The defeated Song Qingxia had no emotion on her face, she bowed calmly, then turned around and walked towards the ring.

Many people present felt sorry for her. After all, everyone could see that Song Qingxia was defeated by her own cultivation.

Song Qingxia naturally heard these discussions, but she didn't take it seriously. In her opinion, defeat is defeat, and cultivation is also the opponent's capital. There are not so many ifs in actual combat.

Failure will not make her fall, it will only make her stronger!
Song Muqing looked at the leaving figure of this heroic girl and scratched his head in embarrassment. In his opinion, if both parties had the same cultivation level, he would be the loser.

"Hey, they're already far away and they're still staring." Song Qingxi came to the ring at some unknown time. Seeing Song Muqing in a daze, she immediately teased.

Song Muqing came back to her senses, her cheeks suddenly felt warm.

"Do you want to take a rest first?" Song Qingxi had been a spectator for so long, and she was already impatient. However, considering that Song Muqing had just fought, for the sake of fairness, she decided to let the other party rest first.

Although the battle just now was fierce, Song Muqing did not consume much. Hearing this, he calmed down, cupped his hands and said: "No, let's start now!"

"Then I'm not welcome."

……

A moment later, Song Muqing fell on the ring like a dead pig.

Song Yushi in the stands couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead and hit her. It was a one-sided blow. Song Muqing had no power to fight back in front of the girl and was defeated in an instant.

Originally, she did not agree with Song Muqing's participation in the competition. After all, he had received a lot of resources to train him since he was a child, and he was not on the same starting line as the children of the Song family.

This is indeed the case. Although these young disciples of the Song family are considered to be top-notch among the foundation-building forces, they are far behind the disciples of the Jindan clan.

Unexpectedly, Song Qingxi appeared halfway and defeated Song Muqing with overwhelming force. This also gave Song Yushi a better understanding of the Song family's heritage.

Song Changsheng was not surprised by this result. Song Qingxi's actual combat experience was much richer than Song Muqing's. There was no comparison at all. Being beaten was normal, but the process was too simple and rough, and the beating left a psychological shadow on the young man. .

However, for young people, a little setback is nothing.

With Song Qingxi's strong victory, the competition in the minor competition has officially ended. The next step is the adult group, which is all composed of clan members above and below 30 years old.

Song Changsheng found the shadows of many acquaintances among them, including Song Changying who went down the mountain with him to measure spiritual roots, Song Changhu and Song Changxiu who participated in the adult ceremony trial together...

Their qualifications can only be considered average, and they are all in the late stages of Qi training, so they cannot participate in the competition for the [Foundation Building Pill]. However, the rewards of the competition are also very generous, which makes everyone very excited.

Looking at the familiar or unfamiliar faces, Song Changsheng was filled with emotions. Unknowingly, ten years had passed and they had left him behind too much.

This scene lasted for two days, during which no one who could make Song Changsheng's eyes shine appeared. He could only be regarded as ordinary.

Of course, this does not mean that there are no talents among them. After all, the competition tests more of their actual combat abilities, and talents from all walks of life will not have the opportunity to display themselves.

What everyone is looking forward to the most is the last one. All the contestants are composed of Qi Practicing Dzogchen monks. Although there are only more than twenty people, it is far from comparable to the previous two games.

Wang Wanzhou, Li Siyang and others are all smart people. Seeing the age range and cultivation level of these players, they already understand the meaning.

The two looked at each other, and then looked away in tacit understanding, looking at the ring below, but each had their own thoughts in their hearts.

The Song family and the Wang family have been married for several generations, and their friendship can be traced back hundreds of years. Among the six foundation-building forces in Lingzhou, the relationship between the two families has always been the closest.

Even when the Song family was at its lowest, the Wang family still persisted in helping each other. It can be said that the two families have been tied together for a long time.

After years of recuperation, the Song family is returning to its peak strength. Today's competition means that the Song family has obtained the [Foundation Building Pill] from other channels, and its strength will inevitably increase greatly.

This is what the Wang family likes to see. They want the Song family to be stronger, the better. The stronger the Song family, the stronger the Wang family. But for Li Siyang, the news is not so wonderful. Unlike the Wang family, an indigenous foundation-building force, the Li family was single-handedly supported by the Song family.

Logically speaking, they should be more trusted by the Song family than the Wang family, but after Song Yun returned to the throne, the rebellious Li family was directly out of the Song family's control.

Later, the Dihuo Sect gained momentum, and in order to protect herself, Li had to find her old boss and ask for support, in order to frighten the Dihuo Sect.

But the [-]th generation is the [-]th generation, and their nature is hard to change.

A few years ago, when Song Changsheng was guarding the Chiyun iron ore vein, he accidentally discovered a wood spirit vein, which gave the Song family an additional elixir cultivation base.

After these years of development, it not only met the needs of the Song family, but also sold a large amount of surplus to external parties.

The elixir trade is the foundation of the Li family. By doing this, Song undoubtedly touched the foundation of the Li family. This made the entire Li family very dissatisfied and had some misunderstandings in their hearts.

Coupled with the decline of the Earth Fire Sect and the eagerness to find allies, the two sides fell in love with each other and hit it off immediately when Tian Lei stirred Earth Fire. As a result, four of the six major foundation-building forces in Lingzhou united together.

Li Siyang naively believed that this way the situation in Lingzhou would be able to maintain balance again. Unexpectedly, the Song family obtained the [Foundation Building Pill] again, which was not a good thing for them.

Although the alliance with the Dihuo Sect has not been made public, paper cannot cover the fire. Will the alliance of the four families really be able to control the Song family and Song Xianming's grandson by then?

Thinking of this, Li Siyang couldn't help but cast his eyes on Song Changsheng beside him.

The next moment, Li Siyang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, because when he looked at Song Changsheng, Song Changsheng also looked at him with a smile but not a smile. Their eyes met, and Li Siyang felt that his heart stopped for a beat.

But he was the head of the family after all. He quickly calmed down and forced a smile: "Why is the young patriarch looking at me like this?"

Song Changsheng saw Li Siyang's performance in his eyes. Although the other party hid it very well, there was nothing to hide under his eyes.

This competition was related to the [Foundation Building Pill]. Song Changsheng could have invited no outsiders to watch, but he still invited the Wang and Li families.

This move not only means to measure the muscles of the two families, but more importantly, it is to observe the reactions of the two families.

As a close ally, Wang's performance satisfied Song Changsheng, but Li's attitude was a bit intriguing.

The spies of Fengyu Palace had already noticed some of Li's private actions, and Song Luyao had also mentioned them to him, but they were just speculations after all. But at that moment, Song Changsheng had already determined in his heart that Li, a young man Betrayed the Song family for the second time!
"Cousin, I see you don't look very good. Do you feel something is wrong?" Song Changsheng stared into Li Siyang's eyes and said calmly.

Li Siyang felt as if he was being targeted by a ferocious beast, and his clothes were soaked with cold sweat unconsciously. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Maybe it's because I have too many thoughts recently. It's okay, it's okay."

"That's it. Cousin, please take care of your health. Song and Li are one piece of furniture, and we will rely on you more in the future." A gentle smile suddenly appeared on Song Changsheng's face.

Li Siyang felt a lightness all over his body. The heavy pressure had disappeared, and he was secretly relieved.

Although the exchange between the two was brief, it still caught Wang Wanzhou's attention. His eyes turned around the two of them, thinking deeply...

Everything that happened in the audience was just a sideshow, and it didn't attract much attention at all. Most people's eyes were focused on the ring.

What is going on now is the third competition. The two sides fighting are one old and one young.

The old man was in his fifties and his energy and blood were already a little low. However, he had rich experience in actual combat and was ruthless in his attacks, suppressing and beating his opponent who was only in his twenties.

The young man was a fat man with short stature. He was extremely embarrassed by the old man's attack, and his round face was full of panic.

"Boy, you are no match for me. I won't hurt you if you admit defeat now." The old man said coldly.

Unlike others, the contestants in this last round had all received hints from Song Changsheng and understood that the ultimate goal today was to compete for the [Foundation Building Pill], so everyone spared no effort. After the previous two games, they all met. Bloody.

The old man said this, in addition to threatening the little fat man, he also wanted to avoid losing both sides.

"You...you may not be able to accept me."

The little fat man responded calmly, but the "panic" on his face betrayed him.

A stern look appeared on the old man's face, and attacks rushed towards the little fat man like a tide.

In the stands, Song Changsheng suddenly looked at Li Siyang and said, "Cousin, in your opinion, who can win this battle?"

Li Siyang was frightened by Song Changsheng. Hearing this, he carefully observed the situation on the field and said tentatively: "Although the two sides have similar cultivation levels, the old man's attacks are ruthless, and his moves go straight to the point. The instrument is also like an arm using fingers.

In contrast, his opponents were timid, their magic weapons were not outstanding, and their winning rate was slim. "

A smile appeared on Song Changsheng's lips, and he cast his eyes on the ring and said, "I have different opinions from my cousin. How about we make a bet?"

"Did I make a mistake?" Seeing Song Changsheng being so confident, Li Siyang suddenly became vigilant. He observed carefully, but found nothing wrong.

This made him a little confused, and he couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Since it is a gambling fight, is there a stake?"

Song Changsheng shook his head and said: "The contestants are all my sons of the Song family. It would be unfair for my cousin to place bets. It is just for entertainment."

Hearing this, Li Siyang felt a little relieved, and he said with certainty: "I think the old man is already sure of victory."

A smile appeared on Song Changsheng's lips, "Old man, your eyes are not very good."

In the eyes of everyone, the little fat man was chased around by the old man, and was beaten without any ability to fight back. However, Song Changsheng discovered the trick. The little fat man was indeed no match for the old man.

But he has already laid a trap, leading his opponent into it step by step...
