Senior brother, stop it, you are the villain!

Today's Taiwei Sect is experiencing constant internal troubles and is in urgent need of an opportunity to boost the mentality of its disciples. And this inner disciple selection competition is naturally an opportunity.

But unlike Qing Yangzi, Qin Zhao and Du Yuanxi had no hope for this selection competition. After all, if the outer sect disciples had outstanding abilities, they would have been selected by Feng Shao to join the inner sect. Even if there is the possibility of a hidden gem, this possibility is certainly unlikely.

But Qingyangzi couldn't care less about this. Nowadays, most of the inner disciples have left. If we don't bring in more people, the Taiwei Sect will really exist in name only.

In this matter, Ling Xuzi, who had been hiding for many days, suddenly came forward. He recommended himself and served as the examiner of the selection competition, leading the entire selection competition. And Qingyangzi agreed to him for some unknown reason.

In Ling Xuzi's view, the so-called selection competition is nothing more than allowing a group of disciples to enter the ring to compete with each other, and the final winner can become an inner disciple. As for the competition process, I didn’t think much about it.

Therefore, in this matter, he directly arranged a ring match.

The rules of his arena competition are quite simple. Anyone who thinks he can do it can take part in the competition. If the disciples below are dissatisfied, go up and challenge him. The loser goes to the ring, the winner defends the ring. After three days, the winner is the one who finally stands on the ring.

Simple and crude.

But there is an obvious problem with the rules of such an arena competition, that is, only one disciple can be selected. And due to factors of luck and strategy, the one who can finally stand in the ring may not necessarily be the strongest.

Everyone knows that in this kind of arena competition, whoever goes up first will suffer the most. So on the first day of the ring competition, no one entered the ring.

Ling Xuzi sat in the stands, looking at the empty arena, puzzled.

That night, Ling Xuzi went to Qingyangzi to complain, and the content of the complaint was that the outer disciples were too unsatisfactory and spineless, and none of them dared to compete.

Qingyangzi was also confused when he heard this. This situation never happened before when Feng Shao held trials! Is it possible that after Feng Shao left, the outer disciples began to lose their fighting spirit?

After careful questioning, Qingyangzi almost fainted.

Even if he didn't pay much attention to the sect's internal affairs before, he still knew that Ling Xuzi's rules for the arena competition were very unreasonable and did not meet his requirements for selecting inner sect disciples. In anger, Qingyangzi decided to make the rules himself.

But Qingyangzi just meditates and practices on weekdays. How much does he know about this kind of thing? So after thinking hard for a long time, I finally copied the rules that Feng Shao had formulated before.

The competition process formulated by Feng Shao is divided into three steps.

The first step is to sign up voluntarily. The first thirty-two outer disciples to register will be eligible to participate.

The second step is the group stage. After drawing lots, four people were divided into eight groups. Each contestant must fight one-on-one against three others, with one point awarded for victory and no points for failure. The two people with the highest scores from each group can participate in the next round of selection.

The third step is the knockout round. According to the standard of the first in Group A versus the second in Group B, and the second in Group A versus the first in Group B, there will be a one-on-one duel, and the winner will advance to the next round until the winner is finally determined.

That's right, Feng Shao directly applied the rules of the World Cup. The only difference is that there are no draws here.

The biggest advantage of this rule is that it can try to prevent outstanding disciples from being buried. Although the possibility of an upset cannot be ruled out, it is ultimately much fairer than other competition rules.

After using Feng Shao's competition rules, the trials finally went smoothly. After seven days of competition, the eight strongest outer sect disciples were finally selected to enter the inner sect.

According to the previous process, Qingyangzi, Qin Zhao and Du Yuanxi each have to choose their favorite disciples at this time. However, surprisingly, both Qin Zhao and Du Yuanxi were not interested in this, and both expressed that they had no plans to continue to accept disciples. In desperation, Qingyangzi had no choice but to incorporate all eight people into the Nagato lineage.

Qingyangzi said that it was really difficult for him. In the entire sect, it seems that he is the only one concentrating on doing things, and everyone else is working against him.

And this guy Ling Xuzi is even more of a person who fails to succeed but fails to succeed!

After the "vigorous" selection competition, Taiwei Sect gradually became calmer. After Ye Chen and Zhao Meier lived together in the back mountain, they rarely came out to see people. Without the trouble-making Ye Chen and the bright-eyed Zhao Meier, the atmosphere in the entire sect finally became harmonious.

But in this calm, no one knows when the next storm will come or how it will come.

——————————

After two months of hard work, Feng Shao finally transcribed all the ancient classics. Each classic was copied into two copies, one of which was given to Lin Fengtian as a betrothal gift for marrying Lin Xiaoran. The other part was kept by Feng Shao himself as a means of establishing a business in the future.

During this period, he also took the time to teach Qi Feng Lingxue, Luo Qiu Shuang, Bai Shuang Hua and Lin Xiao Ran the techniques.

Luo Qiu Shuang, Bai Shuanghua and Lin Xiaoran's techniques have all been selected. As for Feng Lingxue's technique, Feng Shao, after some deliberation, selected a book called "Ming Soul Sword Sutra" The ancient skills were taught to Feng Lingxue.

Feng Shao has discovered that anyone with deep luck has an extraordinary physique. Feng Lingxue, who has deep red luck, has an "innate sword body".

Innate sword body, as the name suggests, is particularly suitable for practicing swordsmanship.

No wonder Xiao Ruoyao loves this little girl so much.

There are many exercises suitable for innate sword body. In Feng Shao's huge library of classics, there are at least twenty suitable exercises. Faced with these exercises that are good at their own fields, Feng Shao couldn't help but suffer from choice difficulties.

After a comparison, Feng Shao finally chose "Mingxinling Sword Sutra". Because among these exercises, "Mingxinling Sword Sutra" is the most special.

Other exercises are still mainly based on general ideas, focusing on cultivating true qi, and strengthening their understanding of swordsmanship from the inside out. These exercises are considered to be standard, and there will be no problems in practicing them. As long as Feng Lingxue practices step by step, there will be no problem in practicing to cross the tribulation.

The "Mingling Spirit Sword Sutra" is different. This method is to strengthen the understanding of swordsmanship and feedback to the innate sword body, which will then cause resonance between heaven and earth and naturally improve the realm.

It sounds very powerful, but there has always been an unwritten rule in the world of cultivation, that is: the more mysterious the method sounds, the more dangerous it is to practice. Because its rules are unpredictable, once something goes wrong on the road of cultivation, there is a great possibility that you will never find the right path again.

So unless it is necessary, cultivators will choose those methods that at least they can understand.

The reason why Feng Shao chose such a method for Feng Lingxue is that the biggest feature of this method is that it requires practitioners to learn as many sword moves as possible. And it can't be the kind of common goods that can be seen everywhere, at least it must be at the level of Chongyang Seventeen Roads Sword Art.

The more sword moves you learn, the deeper your understanding of the sword; the deeper your understanding of the sword, the greater the feedback to the innate sword body; the greater the feedback to the innate sword body, the higher your cultivation.

If it were someone else, even if they got this technique, they would probably give up practicing it. Even for Xiao Ruoyao, the thirty-six sword techniques she mastered were not enough to "feed" this technique.

But Feng Shao was different. Not to mention what he mastered, there were tens of thousands of sword techniques in his mind alone. Even if he learned one sword technique a day, it would be enough for Feng Lingxue to study for thirty years!

The biggest obstacle to practicing "Mingling Soul Sword Sutra" is the problem that Feng Shao is least worried about.

After having enough sword techniques, "Mingling Soul Sword Sutra" basically has no bottleneck. Not only that, the strength of the cultivators who practice "Mingling Soul Sword Sutra" grows very fast, and they have stronger combat power than the same level. Even cross-level battles are not a problem. To put it bluntly, "Mingling Soul Sword Sutra" is a technique specially created for fighting.

After passing "Mingling Soul Sword Sutra" to Feng Lingxue, Feng Shao naturally taught her the sword techniques as well. And in the process of his teaching, Lin Xiaoran also followed and learned together. However, compared with Feng Lingxue's innate sword body, Lin Xiaoran's all-round talent is not as outstanding as Feng Lingxue's. After Feng Lingxue learned a set of sword techniques, Lin Xiaoran often just practiced the sword moves.

Under Feng Shao's dedicated teaching, Feng Lingxue's strength improved rapidly. In just two months, she successfully crossed the two realms of Qi training and foundation building, and was promoted to the Tongmai realm. Her speed of progress made everyone secretly shocked.

According to Feng Shao's speculation, when Feng Lingxue was promoted to the innate realm, she could go to Ye Chen to avenge the murder of her brother. However, in order to ensure that there is no mistake, Feng Shao planned to go to Ye Chen first after Feng Lingxue reached the innate realm and beat Ye Chen half to death.

On this day, after Feng Shao finished teaching Feng Lingxue, he walked out of the martial arts room hand in hand with Lin Xiaoran.

Lin Xiaoran thought Feng Shao was going to meditate and practice as usual, and was about to wave goodbye to Feng Shao, but Feng Shao grabbed her hand and whispered in her ear: "Ran'er, come down the mountain with me today!"

Lin Xiaoran's eyes lit up immediately: "Down the mountain? Where to? Is it Bianyun City?"

Feng Shao smiled and shook his head: "Not Bianyun City, it's farther than Bianyun City."

"Where will that be?" Lin Xiaoran asked curiously.

"That will be where our...dream begins!"
