Chapter 48

Three days later, the first elimination round of the outer disciple competition finally came to an end.

On the formation board.

The names of the top 75 were bright and dazzling.

Especially.

The first six were tied for first, attracting a lot of attention.

"I didn't expect him to reach this step …"

Yuefeng took a light breath, his eyes fixed on the name "Chen Yu".

Three months ago, when he killed the Iron Brown Bear, he didn't expect this.

If he had known, Yuefeng wouldn't have traded Cloud Steps to Chen Yu.

In terms of movement technique, it was Yuefeng's advantage to be in the top three.

For example, Hu Yiba and Yuan Beitong, their movement techniques were slightly inferior to him.

But Chen Yu was different.

He had also mastered the Cloud Treading Steps and cultivated the even more profound Fiendish Cloud Fist. It seemed that he also had an unknown external skill.

Yuefeng even felt that Chen Yu's strength might not be as simple as it seemed.

While regretting his decision, Le Feng came to a frightening conclusion: Chen Yu was the biggest threat to his chances of getting into the top three!

The difference between the top three and fourth in the outer disciple competition was too big.

Firstly.

The top three would be rewarded with 75,555 contribution points, top-tier martial arts, and mid-grade body accumulation pills.

And from fourth to tenth, the top ten would be rewarded with 65,555 contribution points, high-tier martial arts, and low-grade body accumulation pills.

The difference in rewards was huge, and the overall difference was a level!

Secondly.

Usually, the top three would be more likely to be selected into the inner sect!

It could be said that.

The difference between third and fourth would affect the fate of people like Yuefeng or Hu Yiba.

Hu Yiba was a classic example.

He was fourth in the previous competition, and the top three had basically all entered the inner sect.

"Looks like I have to do something …"

Yuefeng's eyes flickered, and he made a decision.

At this time.

The disciples on Sky Cloud Peak dispersed one by one.

After the elimination round, there would be a day of rest, and the ranking competition would be held the next day.

After all, many disciples were injured and exhausted from the continuous battles, so they needed to rest and recuperate.

Chen Yu didn't think too much about it.

After he returned to his room, he began to adjust his breathing and recuperate in preparation for the battle tomorrow.

…

At night.

In a deserted courtyard in the outer sect.

Sha sha!

One after another, the figures of a few outer disciples quietly walked into the courtyard.

Not long after.

There were five people gathered in the courtyard, four men and one woman.

If there were other disciples present, they would definitely be shocked.

At this moment, five of the disciples who were temporarily ranked in the top ten of the Outer Sect Competition had arrived!

Four men and one woman: Hu Yiba, Yuan Beitong, Cheng Yun, Yuefeng, and Tong Yuling.

"Yuefeng, we don't seem to be familiar with each other. Why did you suddenly summon us here tonight?"

Hu Yiba said indifferently.

The gazes of the others gathered on Yuefeng's face.

As it turned out, Yuefeng was the one who initiated the gathering of the five elite disciples.

"I won't beat around the bush. What do you all think of Chen Yu's strength in today's tenth round? "

Yuefeng smiled faintly.

Chen Yu!

As soon as the two words came out, Hu Yiba and Cheng Yun's eyes flickered.

The few of them looked at each other and quickly understood.

"Yuefeng, you want us to help you deal with Chen Yu so that you can fight into the top three?"

Cheng Yun sneered.

"No, it's to help each other. According to my plan, it'll be beneficial for everyone."

Yuefeng's face was calm and confident.

After that.

Yuefeng lowered his voice and let the few of them come closer to whisper.

Oh?

Hu Yiba and Cheng Yun listened carefully and soon revealed excited and expectant expressions.

"Hahaha … Good plan. Chen Yu is a huge obstacle that prevents us from entering the top three. In tomorrow's competition, each of us will challenge him. This will be a disguised tag battle and we'll wear him down. "

Hu Yiba laughed loudly and was very satisfied.

In the past, the ranking battles would be based on the results of the elimination rounds.

After that, those who were dissatisfied could challenge those who were ranked higher.

Yuefeng's plan was very straightforward. Each of the five experts present could issue a challenge to Chen Yu once, exhausting his Stamina and Yuan Qi.

"Yuan Beitong, Tong Yuling, what do you think?"

Hu Yiba's eyes turned.

"I heard from Wang Lingyun that Chen Yu is very strong and can suppress our outer sect's' Hercules' title. Of course I want to challenge him."

Yuan Beitong said in a low voice.

Good!

Yuefeng and the others were delighted. This Yuan Beitong was simple-minded and was very suitable to be the vanguard.

Everyone's eyes shifted to the last person, Tong Yuling.

"I don't have much hope of entering the top three, so I won't join you."

Tong Yuling pondered for a moment and gave her answer.

Her words made Yuefeng a little disappointed. He had always been on good terms with Tong Yuling, but he didn't expect her to reject him this time.

Yuefeng didn't know.

Chen Yu had saved Tong Yuling's life when they killed Blood Hand Baldy.

The five of them quickly left.

"Yuefeng, you've changed …"

Tong Yuling watched the handsome long-haired youth leave and sighed softly in her heart.

…

In an elegant pavilion at the peak of the Sect.

"You're not lying to me? That kid's "Bronze Statue Art" was successfully initiated? He even cultivated it to the Greater Success stage. "

A red-faced elder stared at the white-bearded elder in front of him with his eyes wide open.

The white-bearded elder was Elder Nangong, Nangong Li's grandfather.

"Why would I lie to you? Not only did that kid achieve success in the "Bronze Statue Art", but his "Cloud Fiend Fist" is also at least at the Xiaocheng stage. "

The white-bearded Elder Nangong said with a face full of shock.

"It's only been two to three months. It's unbelievable for a half-spiritual body."

The red-faced elder had a strange expression on his face.

If it was an inner sect genius that could achieve this, they could accept it.

But the target was a half-spiritual body ordinary disciple.

"No matter what, the plan of the" Serene Moon Ancient Well "has a certain possibility."

Elder Nangong said with a smile.

"Hehe, I didn't think that the seed I casually sowed that day would actually succeed. As for the secret of the "Serene Moon Ancient Well", other than you, me and Junior Pan, no one else in the sect knows. "

The red-faced elder said with a face full of pride.

"This matter must be kept a secret."

The two reached an agreement and their conversation became softer and softer.

…

The next morning.

Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!

The Cloud Shaking Bell rang four times, resounding through the clouds and reverberating in the mountains.

On the Cloud Sky Peak.

The two dueling stages A and B merged into a large dueling stage that was twice the size of the first one.

In front of everyone, a "formation board" was erected. On it, twenty shining names appeared.

From first, second … all the way to the twentieth.

Among them.

Six people were tied for first place. They were: Duan Xiaolong, Nangong Li, Hu Yiba, Yuefeng, Chen Yu, and Tong Yuling.

Many people had gathered at the peak.

Because it was the day of the final battle, there were more people than the previous three days.

Other than Sect Master Yunyue, Fairy Xia Yu, and Elder Nangong, there were two or three elders.

"Hehe, I heard that the outer sect disciples this time are quite talented, so I came to try my luck."

One of the red-faced elders came over with a smile.

"Eh! Elder Mao, you've never asked about the outside world, but you actually have the time to come and watch the outer sect competition today. "

Sect Leader Yunyue and a few other elders were amazed by it.

"Hmm?"

Chen Yu's gaze fell on the red-faced elder. He immediately recognized this Elder Mao. Wasn't he the one who recommended the "Bronze Statue Art" to him in the Sky Martial Pavilion?

Other than the upper echelons of the Sect, there were also some inner sect disciples who came to watch the outer sect competition.

There were a total of six or seven inner sect disciples. It was not a lot, but compared to the past, it was a lot.

"Xueqing. You actually have the time to come and watch the outer sect competition? "

The Seventh Princes's lazy voice was heard.

He was wearing a gorgeous long robe, which was different from the uniform of the ordinary disciples. He stood out among the crowd.

Beside him stood a beautiful and refined young girl. She wore an exquisite long dress that accentuated her delicate and beautiful figure. Her waist-length black hair that flowed like a waterfall fluttered in the wind. It was a very beautiful sight.

The young girl's face was like a peony after the rain, and her skin was like white porcelain with a hint of pink. Her pure fragrance made people's hearts beat faster.

"Mu Xueqing!"

"The number one beauty in the outer sect! Didn't she enter the inner sect? "

Mu Xueqing's appearance attracted many people's attention. Her popularity almost surpassed that of Nangong Li and Duan Xiaolong.

The young girl's bright eyes were fixed on the ranking on the Array Board.

First place, Chen Yu, 65 points.

That name made the young girl's long eyelashes tremble slightly, and there was a trace of complexity in her expression.

She still remembered that on the day they parted, the young man indifferently left a sentence, "Also, we will meet again in the inner sect."

At this moment.

The young man's name was ranked first. Although there were a total of six people, he was temporarily ranked first.

"A little interesting."

The Seventh Princes smiled leisurely, and his eyes swept through some of the names on the Array Board.

He still had a casual expression on his face.

He had been pursuing Mu Xueqing for some time. Although it was difficult to succeed, he enjoyed the process.

If it was too easy to succeed, he would feel bored.

As for Chen Yu, this potential "love rival", he would just be a little spice.

"The ranking competition begins."

In front of the Array Board, the black-robed old man announced loudly.

All the disciples in the field were silent.

"The rules of the competition state that those who are ranked lower can challenge those who are ranked higher. Each person only has two chances to challenge. If they lose, they will lose one challenge, and if they win, they will not lose the challenge. The winner and the challenged will exchange places, and if they lose, they will keep their original place. "

The rules were the same as in previous years, very simple.

Each person had two chances to challenge. If they win, they will not lose the challenge, and if they lose, they will lose the challenge.

So.

This challenge target had to be careful.

If the challenge target was too high, they would fail twice, and there would be no progress at all.

"Each person has two chances. Start now!"

The black-robed old man said in a low voice.

As soon as he finished speaking.

Chen Yu suddenly felt a wave of hostility and fighting intent locked onto him.

Those gazes came from Hu Yiba, Yuan Beitong, Cheng Yun, and even Yuefeng.

He suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Chen, you have to be careful. Hu Yiba and the others will join forces to target you, and want to sweep you out of the top three. "

A familiar woman's voice rang in Chen Yu's ears.

At some point in time, Tong Yuling had appeared beside Chen Yu and lowered her voice.

"Sweep me out of the top three?"

The corner of Chen Yu's mouth curled up into a cold smile. "But my goal is not to be in the top three!"

What!

Not in the top three?

Could it be that he wanted to …

Tong Yuling was shocked. She looked at Chen Yu in disbelief, and found that she could not see through this young man.
