Chapter 65
The next day.
Chen Yu arrived at the elder's residence and met his master, Mao Qiuyu.
Beside Elder Mao stood a slightly arrogant young man in black with a fair face. He was about the same age as Chen Yu.
"This is your Fourth Senior Brother, Chang Xuan."
Mao Qiuyu introduced.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Chang."
Chen Yu bowed slightly and sized up the young man in black.
He had heard the other two Senior Brothers mention Chang Xuan many times. He was Mao Qiuyu's direct disciple and was favored by his master.
"Yes."
Chang Xuan only replied with one word. His tone was cold.
Chen Yu was slightly embarrassed.
However, as a 'direct disciple', he was indeed confident. He was only one year older than Chen Yu, but he was in the middle stage of the Viscera Refinement Realm.
"Chen Yu, I asked you to come today. We're going to participate in the Meteoric Iron Gamble Battle together. You might have a chance to fight. "
Mao Qiuyu explained.
"Meteoric Iron Gamble Battle? Aren't the Viscera Refinement Realm disciples participating? "
Chen Yu was stunned.
Although he had won the outer disciple competition, he was still a rookie in the inner disciple.
In the inner disciple.
Most of the disciples were in the Viscera Refinement Realm. Some senior disciples were only half a step away from the Qi Transformation Realm.
"There have been a few battles between the senior disciples. Today's competition will go down to the Meridian Illumination Realm. "
Mao Qiuyu's expression was ugly.
Many of the senior elite disciples had participated in the battles before, but they lost more than they won.
Seeing the ugly expression on Elder Mao's face, Chen Yu did not pursue the matter.
...
Ten minutes later.
Mao Qiuyu brought Chang Xuan and Chen Yu to the Sect's Heavenly Cloud Hall.
The Heavenly Cloud Hall was usually the place where the upper echelons of the Sect met.
It was Chen Yu's first time here.
Inside the Heavenly Cloud Hall, some elders and hall masters had already arrived.
This included Sect Master Yunyue, Elder Nangong, Fairy Xia Yu, and the others.
In addition.
There were also some young elite disciples, such as the Seventh Princes and Mu Xueqing.
The atmosphere in the hall was solemn.
The faces of the higher-ups present did not look good.
"Everyone's here."
The blue-robed Yunyue sect leader said, "Have you decided on the candidates for the Meridian Opening stage?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Three young disciples walked out from the crowd, two males and one female.
These three disciples were all at the peak of the Meridian Opening stage, and their auras almost touched the Viscera Refining stage.
"My little granddaughter, Qiu Yue 'er, was planning to break through to the Viscera Refinement stage soon. She has a special treasure, the Exquisite Moon Sword, that can unleash even greater power. "
A white-robed elder stroked his beard and smiled.
Qiu Yue 'er.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the young girl among the three disciples.
This young girl was dressed in a simple and elegant green robe. She was about fourteen or fifteen years old and looked quite petite. She had a fair and delicate face, an exquisite nose, bright eyes, and curved eyebrows. She was truly a natural beauty.
"Qiu Yue 'er greets seniors."
The young girl smiled mischievously and bowed to the surrounding upper echelons. She was quite popular.
Obviously …
This Qiu Yue 'er would be a main force in today's battle.
As for the other two youths, they were quite good as well. They were basically able to break through to the Viscera Refining stage.
"Shi Chuan, peak of the Meridian Opening stage. His comprehension is extremely high. He has cultivated the entry-level cultivation technique, Golden Wave Blade, to the peak."
The second youth in green robes also gave a simple introduction.
Chen Yu was inwardly shocked. The quality of the disciples in the inner sect was not ordinary.
The difference between them and the outer disciples was: young age, high cultivation, and advanced cultivation techniques.
In the outer sect.
Even Duan Xiaolong, who was once the strongest, was a few years older.
"Wan Dong, peak of the Meridian Opening stage. His combat ability is quite strong. He has been fighting with beasts for a long time and has cultivated the Cloud Fiend Fist to the great success stage.
The third youth also finished his introduction.
Cloud Fiend Fist?
Chen Yu was a little surprised. The third youth was called Wan Dong. Like him, he also cultivated the Cloud Fiend Fist.
Maybe it was because of the aura, Wan Dong suddenly looked sideways and met Chen Yu's eyes.
In an instant.
A strong murderous aura and a strong murderous aura rushed towards him.
The Cloud Fiend Inner Breath in Chen Yu's body shook violently and shook off the opponent's aura.
Wan Dong showed a trace of surprise and looked at Chen Yu again.
"It seems that there are a few 'reserve' candidates?"
Sect Master Yunyue smiled again.
He was satisfied with the quality of the three disciples.
Soon.
A few boys and girls walked out of the crowd. There were five or six of them and each of them was at least in the late stage of the Meridian Opening stage.
Among them, Chen Yu also saw a familiar person. It was Yuefeng.
"You go too."
Elder Mao nodded at Chen Yu.
Reserve?
Chen Yu was slightly stunned. He also walked out of the crowd and stood side by side with Yuefeng and the other five.
So.
Today's Meridian Opening Stage gamble had selected three main and seven reserve.
The three main were Qiu Yue 'er, Wan Dong and Shi Chuan, who had extraordinary backgrounds.
The seven reserve were Chen Yu, Yuefeng and the other six.
"Hmm? This kid seems to be first in this outer disciple competition. "
Several of the Elders' upper echelons recognized Chen Yu.
First in the competition?
Qiu Yue 'er and the other two looked at Chen Yu with disdain.
Different from Chen Yu.
Qiu Yue 'er and the others had extraordinary talents or backgrounds, so they had entered the inner sect long ago and received special training.
They looked down on disciples like Chen Yu who came from the outer sect with inferior talents and had a sense of superiority.
Chen Yu had also felt this sense of superiority from Chen Yinger before, so he wasn't surprised at all.
"Sect Master, my disciple recently had an opportunity and reached the late stage of the Meridian Opening Stage. He should be one of the main members. "
Elder Mao said.
"Oh?"
The blue-robed Sect Master looked at Chen Yu with surprise, "However, the three main members have been confirmed. We'll see how it goes. "
Elder Mao's words made Qiu Yue 'er and the other two feel a sense of danger.
The three looked at Chen Yu with unfriendly eyes.
"Brother Chen."
Yuefeng smiled bitterly and greeted Chen Yu.
Actually.
With Nangong Li and Duan Xiaolong's strength, they also had the chance to participate in the gamble.
However, the two of them had reached the Organs Refinement Stage.
…
An hour later.
Yunyue Gate. A few hundred people gathered in front of a large stone platform.
The stone platform was around one foot high and had an irregular oval shape, about one to two acres.
"This is the Gold Testing Platform?"
Qiu Yue 'er and the other two looked at the stone platform nervously and excitedly.
Weng!
A faint golden light suddenly appeared on the stone platform, and there were runes flashing on it. It seemed to be a battle platform.
"The Gold Testing Platform is the place where the direct disciples compete for rankings."
Wan Dong, who also practiced the Cloud Fiend Fist, had a look of anticipation.
The Gold Testing Platform, the battle of the direct disciples!
In Yunyue Gate, the position of the direct disciples was not unshakable.
An ordinary inner disciple could challenge a true disciple. Of course, the promoted direct disciples like Nangong Li had a protection period. They could only be challenged after three years or twenty years old.
Furthermore.
There was a ranking among the direct disciples. The first direct disciple would be the Head Disciple!
This was similar to the outer disciple competition, but the level was much higher.
"Hahaha … yesterday, Yunyue Gate lost consecutively. I wonder if there will be a change in the situation today. "
A loud laughter came from the other side of the Gold Testing Platform.
The voice was unpleasant, and the words were also unpleasant.
Everyone looked at the dozens of people on the other side of the Gold Testing Platform.
In front of these dozens of people, there was a flag with a rusty sword engraved on it.
Iron Sword Sect!
Chen Yu recognized these people.
The voice came from a middle-aged man with a mustache, and he had a smug look on his face.
"Hehe …"
On the other side of the Gold Testing Platform, there was the laughter of some women.
He looked to the side.
There was a blue flag on the other side, representing the Water Moon Sect. There were also forty to fifty people, including elders and disciples, and most of them were female.
"Hmm?"
Chen Yu felt a sense of hostility from the Water Moon Sect.
"Chen Yu, sure enough, you came as well..."
Yi Yunfei, who was dressed in white, stood in the crowd and looked at Chen Yu coldly.
Chen Yu was surprised.
This Yi Yunfei actually came to Yunyue Gate. Wasn't he fighting in the Cloud Abyss Mountain Range a few days ago?
"Today's battle. Let the Iron Sword Sect come first. "
From the Water Moon Sect's side, a beautiful woman in a palace dress said with a smile.
Judging from her appearance, she bore some resemblance to Yi Yunfei. She should be the sect master of the Water Moon Sect.
"Let's begin."
The mustached man from Iron Sword Sect said in a broken voice, "A few days ago, the Yunyue Sect was mediocre in the competition between the Viscera Refinement disciples. I wonder if the Illuminating Meridian cultivators are also weak. "
The mustached man's ear-piercing voice made the faces of the Yunyue Sect's upper echelons darken.
But this battle was unavoidable.
The Iron Sword Sect and the Water Moon Sect had worked together to force the trade of meteoric iron, which was actually a 'gentle' method.
In the past, the Iron Sword Sect had even started a war for resources and territory.
"Let's begin."
The Yunyue Sect master nodded.
Soon, ten disciples walked out from Yunyue Gate.
"Sect Master Zhan. Why don't we change the rules today? Each side will send three people to fight, but the winner can continue fighting, and the loser will be eliminated. The winner will win all the bets. "
The mustached man said.
"Well …"
The Yunyue Sect master and the elders exchanged glances.
The previous battles were three against three, or ten against ten. They were based on the number of battles. Every time they won, they would receive the treasures the opponent had bet.
But this time, the winner could continue to fight.
When one side lost all of their disciples, the winner would receive all the bets.
"The Iron Sword Sect wants to increase the stakes?" Elder Nangong frowned.
"Hehe, we'll pay 605 kilograms of Brass Crystals this time! You only need to pay 655 kilograms of meteoric iron. "
The mustached man waved his hand.
Whoosh!
A few glowing yellow spirit ores appeared out of thin air.
"The Brass Crystals are not much less valuable than the meteoric iron. 605 kilograms is worth more than 655 kilograms of meteoric iron. "
The upper echelons and elders of Yunyue Sect communicated with each other through voice transmission.
They were tempted, but they were also wary.
The Iron Sword Sect had suddenly changed the rules and increased the stakes. They must have something up their sleeves.
"Hahaha … Are you afraid to compete? Why don't we take a step back? We'll send three people, and you'll add one more. Four against three. You won't back down, will you? "
The mustached man's laughter rang out again.
The sound of the gong annoyed the Yunyue Sect master and the others.
"Alright!"
The Yunyue Sect master sneered. Since the other party dared to be arrogant, he would not hold back!
