Within the Pine City of the nation's capital, people talked about the competition every day most of the time after their meals and meals. Occasionally, there would be a sword move or half a move, which would be used by people as a topic of conversation.
These few days, Lee Xun and the other three were practicing their sword skills in the Dong Clan, while the elders of the Tianshan Sword Sect were constantly sending them news of the competition. In the middle, Lee Xun and Qin Qing made a trip to the Thousand Jade Temple, where Qian Jue's jade pendants made them extremely satisfied with Lee Xun's way through. However, the price was a bit too expensive. Qian Jue asked for ten thousand purple coins, and said that it was for a fifty percent discount on Qin Qing's account. Lee Xun did not haggle, but after Qian Jue saw her sister who shouted loudly to the left and right of him, he felt too embarrassed to haggle. Under Lee Xun's request, the finished product would be completed in fifteen days.
The arena master in the fifth arena was changed almost every day, and on the fifth day of the competition, the Wolf Fang Sword Sect and the Dark Sword Sect were defeated by the Jade Immortals Sword Sect in the southern part of the established Sword Sect respectively, losing their arena master positions. Starting from the sixth day, another arena master was defeated one after another, all of these losses were very unjust. Basically, it was because the members were injured or exhausted too much previously, and it was difficult to recover their full strength after a few days. In addition, during the previous battles, they had exposed many of their weaknesses, so it was very easy to get targeted, so failure was only a matter of time.
Regarding all of these, Lee Xun was not surprised. He knew that all of the things that he had thought of, were actually anticipated by the arena masters and Sword Sect s. However, the issue of face made them think that even if they lost like this, they would still feel honored. The truth was like this as well. Even after those Sword Sect s fell, they still won the applause.
However, from Lee Xun's point of view, what use was there for him to gain some notoriety? Who would dare to say that they were cowards when they were going to win the championship based on their strength? That would be the true reputation of the team. Reasonable use of the rules would be the most correct choice.
On the eighth day, Lee Xun and the others came to the auction house once again. In Lee Xun's opinion, from today onwards, even if there were Sword Sect s as hidden as himself, they would reveal their true strength. As expected, in the afternoon's challenge, Benlei Sword Sect from the east also sent out a disciple of the sixth step, swept through the last of the top eight Coiling Dragon Sword Sect disciples and easily ascended to the seat of arena two.
"Elder Gu, of the eight teams currently on the stage, which one do you think is the strongest?" Lee Xun asked.
However, their members have yet to completely display their strength. Even if they are warriors of the same realm, as the sword skills they grasp are different, the difference in actual combat ability will be huge, depending on their experience in facing off against the enemy. Our old Sword Sect in the south did not manage to regain their position as arena master after their failure, and should be making their move in the last two days.
"In that case, let's see which is the strongest one you think?"
"It should be Jade Immortals Sword Sect. Even though their disciples are all women, we can see that their actual combat abilities are very strong, and their actions are also very vicious. So far, no team had challenged them. "I estimate that their daily training must be very cruel. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so ruthless at such an age." Elder Gu squinted his eyes.
Hearing Elder Gu's words, Lee Xun suddenly thought that this was a good opportunity to train, and said: "Qing, Nana, Fen, if you were to fight with someone from the Jade Immortals Sword Sect, it would definitely cause a sensation, what do you think?"
"Alright, alright. I've been holding back so much these past few days." The little girl Tian Fen grumbled everyday, she could only vent her anger on Zhou Jie every single day. However, Zhou Jie had done very well these few days. Actually, he was also very aggrieved in his heart, because he currently had no chance of winning against Tian Fen at all.
"Yeah, I can finally move around." Dong Nana was also feeling extremely stifled.
Qin Qing just smiled at Lee Xun, but Lee Xun understood that inside Qin Qing's heart, there was also a burning desire, for him to quickly fight in the arena.
"Then it's decided. Elder Gu, on the last day, I'll have to trouble you to register and challenge that Jade Immortals Sword Sect earlier."
"Good, good, good. This time, the sects from the east and west are in the top eight. They are indeed too arrogant." Hearing that Lee Xun had finally decided to take action, and had even selected the Jade Immortals Sword Sect that currently held the strongest power, this old man's pent-up anger for the past few days became much stronger, and he hurriedly agreed.
On the ninth day, the Wolf Fang Sword Sect and the Dark Blessing Sword Sect returned to their respective positions. And this day's challenges were not as many as before, as the vast majority of Sword Sect had already used up two chances and lost their confidence. After two in the afternoon, there were no longer any Sword Sect left to issue challenges. The ninth day had passed just like that. However, everyone knew that on the final day, there would definitely be a lot of people fighting to the death with their Sword Sect, especially those established Sword Sect who had lost previously.
The team competition finally welcomed the final day of the tournament. The matter of Elder Gu going to register to challenge Jade Immortals Sword Sect went smoothly, but there were a few people in the competition arena who were arguing. However, a single arena could only have a maximum of four slots per day. There were too many monks and too few porridge.
At the Jade Immortals Sword Sect resting area.
"Master, I never thought that the Tianshan Sword Sect, which was used as a turtle's hide before, would actually come to challenge us today. They really have no brains, could it be that they don't know our previous performance?" The young girl was dressed in red and looked pure. However, her tone of voice was somewhat arrogant.
"Little Chan, girls need to be reserved. How does Master usually teach you?" The only woman in the group who spoke was a middle-aged man.
"Junior Master Yuling, I feel that the people who have come are not good. According to the information that we have, Tianshan Sword Sect is very famous in the south, and the recent champions of the team competition are all related to them. Previously, when they admitted defeat, it looked like they were the target of a thousand men, but they had preserved their strength and were much smarter than the other seven foolish Sword Sect s. " The young girl who spoke wore green clothes. She was elegant and graceful, graceful and romantic, but between her brows, she emitted a heroic air.
"Xiao Die, what you said is right, the fact that Tianshan Sword Sect dared to pick us, means that they have definitely come prepared. But we cannot afford to lose in this battle. If we lose, we would lose the chance to enter the top eight, and our situation in our Sword Sect has become worse and worse over the past few years.
"Martial Uncle, don't worry. Little Jiao, Little Shan and I will fight today." Die looked determined.
"Fine, the three of you will fight. You have the most control over yourselves. If you cannot do anything, you must prioritize your own safety. I still need to bring all of you back." In fact, she was also worried, this time due to some special reason, Xiao Chan and the other girls attacked so hard on a few Sword Sect people that they might be remembered by others as being hateful, and it was hard to say if this return trip was safe. So she had already secretly sent a pigeon with a message to the inner sect to send more people to help. If his own people were injured at this moment, the situation would become even more dangerous.
