C684 Invitation at Night

The first round of eliminations ended just like that. After an entire day, a total of 23 people advanced to the next round of points competition.

The number of people from the Heavenly Sword Sect who had been nominated this time was quite a lot. It was much better than the previous years. In the previous years, there had only been one or even less. It was just a formality, but this year, there were four people who had been nominated.

There was no need to talk about Jian Ao and Han Shiyun's strength. They could even kill a Fourth or Fifth Level Sword General genius. Feng Piaoyu was very lucky to get the empty number. As for the other person, he was the disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect's Great Elder. The reason why he was able to break through. . . He had settled down for a long time. When he had just stepped onto the arena. . . He had relied on the pressure from his opponent to break through to the intermediate Sword General. He had also taken advantage of the fact that his opponent was unprepared. He had barely won against his opponent, but. . . He himself was also covered in injuries. If it wasn't for the fact that the one leading the team this time was a tier 7 alchemist, Zhuge Liuyun. . . He was afraid that he would not even need to participate in the points competition. However, even if he could participate. . . The chances of him entering the third round were extremely low!

Except for Jian Ao and Han Shiyun, who were two abnormal people, Sword General, who could fight a genius with a master swordsman, and Feng Piaoyu, who was lucky, the others who could enter the third round were all at the fourth level of the Sword General. Most of them were at the peak of the fourth level, or even Fifth Level.

However, none of them were at the late stage of the Sword General. There was not a single one. Of course, it was also very likely that they were purposely suppressing their cultivation base so as to give their opponents a 'surprise'.

Speaking of which, the battle that shocked Jian Ao the most was actually Saintess Tianmin from the Heaven Secret Sect. Her opponent was a male disciple of the Iron Sword Sect, and his cultivation had reached the peak of Stage Four. She was considered to be at the middle level among the disciples, but she did not even have the chance to make a move against Tianmin.

Saintess Tianmin muttered something and that disciple felt that there were stars in his brain that were moving. He saw stars and fell into a daze! Immediately, the former gently flicked his sleeves and pushed his opponent off the arena.

The entire process could be said to be extremely fast. It was likely only a matter of one to two minutes.

Immediately, Saintess Tianmin instantly entered the "hot search" and "hot discussion ranking. . " All of them wanted to know what kind of person this person was. His methods were actually so strange, making people unable to figure it out!

At night.

Jian Ao sat cross-legged in his room. Strands of natural spiritual energy flowed through his meridians and entered his dantian, strengthening his cyclone.

Jian Ao's cultivation base had reached the Eighth Level of Great Sword Master Stage, and it was at the peak of the Eighth Stage. He was only a step away from the Ninth Level. Breaking through was hard to say, but also easy.

Buzz! Buzz!

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured down and rushed to the top of his head.

Whoosh!

At this moment, the sound of air being torn could be heard.

Jian Ao suddenly opened his eyes and stretched out his hand. The piece of paper that caused the sound of air being torn landed in his hand. When he opened his hand and took a look, a surprised expression instantly appeared on his face.

"Saintess Tianmin? Inviting me to meet her?"

The contents of the note were simple and concise.

The more Jian Ao thought about it, the more he frowned. Logically speaking, the grudge between him and the Heaven Secret Sect and Saintess Tianmin should be very deep, but why did they help him time and time again? In the morning, when he was surrounded by the various sects, he did not hesitate to offend them for his sake. Now, Holy Maiden even invited him to meet by the lake?

What were they planning?
