"First of all, I would like to talk about something. About the cultivation and fusion of Qixing, after verification by our Sect's Elders and myself, this and the fusion is a forgery. As for whether or not this book is written by Qi Xing, it still needs to be verified. " Liu Chen stood on the high platform as he spoke while looking at the crowd.
At this moment, no one in the training grounds thought that it would turn out like this. They all began to quietly mutter to each other. For a time, the training grounds were in an uproar. When Liu Chen saw this, he became slightly angry. The aura on his body was faintly surging out and was as imposing as a mountain.
When the disciples below the stage sensed that Liu Chen was about to be angered, their expressions changed and they hurriedly stopped their discussion. In an instant, the entire venue was completely silent. After a short pause, Liu Chen said in a low voice, "The next item is the competition for the elite rankings of our sect disciples. The time limit is set to be half a month from now. The relevant matters will be communicated to the elders. " With that, he returned to the seat of honor and sat down.
Very soon, the rules governing the Disciple Competition were announced. It was the same as the previous years; disciples under the age of twenty-eight were allowed to participate. It was just that the time was a few days ahead of schedule, but this did not affect the disciples rushing back. The top ten of the elite rankings could receive either a flawless quality longsword or an exquisite skill book. The top three were directly guided by the Elders. They had good swords and also had cultivation techniques. Those who entered the elite rankings could receive guidance from the Elders. If one's performance was outstanding, the elder would take a fancy to them and accept them as their last disciple! This was a rare opportunity for all the disciples! Most of the warriors in the world only had fine swords. Flawless' quality 'swords' usually came from the hands of a Sword Crafting Master, and even more so from the hands of a Sword Crafting Master. As for famous swords, they were hard to come by in hundreds of years!
"Deacon Hu, I'll have to trouble you to release Qi Xing." Walking in the backyard, Liu Chen gently smiled and said.
"There is no need for Sovereign to do such a thing." Elder Hu cupped his fist and left with the order. At this time, the elders had all dispersed. Only Zhao Kun and Wang Chang had gathered together and left. It was unknown what matter they needed to discuss.
Deacon Hu jumped up from the ground; he was actually over 10 feet tall! Seeing that he was about to land on the ground, Deacon Hu's toes tapped on the rock that stuck out and he once again shot upwards diagonally. A Second Sky of the Liu Gate disciple suddenly saw a shadow suddenly appear and was shocked. When he saw who it was, he let out a breath of relief. At the same time, he was envious of Deacon Hu's qinggong. The slope of this cliff was astonishingly high. Furthermore, it was filled with small paths. If one was not careful, they would be able to tumble down. If he had a lightness skill, it would be as easy as flipping over and over again.
"Qi Xing?" After a while, Deacon Hu came from the bottom of the cliff to the top of the cliff that was nearly a thousand meters tall. But Deacon Hu's forehead didn't have the slightest drop of sweat; he was completely out of breath! Arriving at the top of the cliff, he greeted the two disciples who were guarding it before instructing the two disciples to release Qi Xing. The two disciples actually said that their fellow disciples had gone missing! He was forced to enter and found that the cave was indeed empty. Deacon Hu shouted and saw that there was no response. He then checked, logically speaking, Qi Xing should not be here.
"Deacon Hu, take a look." The two disciples suddenly called out loudly and Deacon Hu looked towards the direction of the voice. His expression changed, and he discovered that there were traces of him climbing up the cliff. The three of them stuck their heads out of the cliff and saw a patch of white fog. His complexion suddenly became incomparably unsightly. The two disciples were unfavorable because of the guards, but Deacon Hu was thinking about many things. Let alone a Third Sky of Sky Realm martial artist like Qi Xing, even a peak Sixth Sky martial artist like himself couldn't do anything about such a steep cliff. If he fell down, he would be smashed into smithereens!
"Alright, this matter is not your fault." Deacon Hu consoled the two disciples, "Follow me down. It will be the Disciple Competition soon. With your fifth heaven strength, you can still compete with me." As he spoke, he didn't wait for the two of them to respond and started rushing downwards with lightness skills. The speed at which he descended was even faster. One could only see a white shadow pass by in a flash. The two disciples were much more relieved after Deacon Hu spoke of it. When he thought of the Disciple's Competition, his heart began to burn with passion. He even wanted to obtain a good ranking in the Disciple's Competition. Not only would the Disciple Competition give birth to an elite disciple, it would also give rise to a ranking in terms of strength. The two of them also used their Qing Gong to rush down the cliff, but their speed was much slower than Deacon Hu. Moreover, their speed was still slightly slower than Deacon Hu's.
Enforcer Hu immediately reported this matter to Liu Chen. Liu Chen was very surprised with this matter. In Liu Ming's heart, he was starting to suspect that this' Harmonization Skill 'was similar to his own, only that the other party had bought a fake one. Escaping from guilt now? However, thinking about how the other party had climbed up the cliff, he shook his head and gave up on that idea. If they went down from there, with the power of Qixing's 3rd Heavenly Layer, they would only have a slim chance of survival. He could have concluded that Qi Xing was dead meat. Liu Chen got Hu Deacon to inform the crowd of this matter and left. He sighed to himself, "What a pity he's such a genius."
The ones who were the happiest on this matter were none other than Zhao Xiaoliang and the others. Although Liu Zhengnan did not believe that Qi Xing would run away from the crime, Liu Zhannan could only sigh at the cliff. Shi Hao and the others felt pity for Qi Xing's death as well, but they still lived. Everyone was busy with the competition for the disciples, and the matter of Qi Xing was soon forgotten by the people. It was as if it had never happened. No one could recall it. Only Qi Xiu sighed occasionally for the death of Qi Xing.
Humans were this terrifying.
"Where is this place?" Qi Xing shook his head and realized that he was lying on the ground. His mind was still muddled as he subconsciously opened his mouth. Buzz! * A swarm of mosquitoes and flies were startled by the movement of the comet. The blood stains on the ground had dried long ago. Only when the pain from his entire body was he able to come to his senses. When he woke up from his coma and looked at the sky, he realized that the moon was already hanging in the sky. Looks like he's been unconscious for a long time. Qi Xing weakly waved his hand to chase away the mosquitoes and flies, then sat down cross-legged to recover his inner force. He had long since used his inner force when climbing the cliff, so it was only by recovering a little bit that he could regain his strength. He stood up and left after feeling a little better.
Not knowing where he was, not knowing where he was going, Qi Xing seemed to be at a loss. Qi Xing wanted to find something to eat since his stomach was empty, but he couldn't find anything edible. After wandering in the forest for a long time, he finally found a edible weed, regardless of the consequences. After washing himself in a nearby stream, he swallowed. At this moment, Qi Xing's head still felt unusually heavy, and he was unable to exert any strength.
After circling in the forest for several hours, Qi Xing finally arrived at a large road. Strangely, he didn't encounter any wild beasts in the forest. However, Qi Xing no longer had the strength to think about these strange things. He could not wait to pick a path and really ran towards the inn.
"Does the waiter have another room?" When Qi Xing saw an inn, his eyes lit up and he ran towards it with big strides. Qi Xing's appearance gave the waiter a fright. Qi Xing's clothes were in tatters and he was covered in blood. No matter how he looked at it, he did not seem like a rich person. While he was hesitating about whether or not to let Qi Xing in, Qi Xing took out five taels of silver and threw it over.
"Yes, yes. Guest, please come in. " When the waiter saw the silver, his eyes lit up and he beamed with joy.
"Prepare some food for me, as soon as possible." Qi Xing did not waste time with the waiter and urged him on. He then sat down at an empty table, feeling extremely hungry. As he sat down, the wounds on his body were affected, causing Qi Xing to grimace in pain. Soon, the food arrived. Qi Xing started to gobble down the food. This move immediately drew the ridicule of the crowd, but Qi Xing ignored it.
