C173 Cultivation and Courage

The moment Mingsi jumped out of the audience, someone noticed his movement. Chen Ziming, who was standing next to him, did not have time to react before he saw Mingsi's figure falling down from the sky. Everyone on the scene was surprised. Especially the words that Mingsi said after he jumped down the stage, it shocked them even more.

"What?! What did I hear just now?" Some of the students were still in a daze, thinking about Mingsi's words.

"He said he wants to represent the middle level and continue to challenge?"

"He wants to challenge Ling Zesheng?"

While the crowd was discussing, Ling Zesheng was also stopped by Mingsi's actions and words. He looked at Mingsi with a puzzled expression, then turned his head to look at the elder seats on the platform.

"Hwang Mingsi, you have broken the rules. Get down now!" At this moment, the people on the arena quickly flew up and scolded him angrily.

Mingsi was very nervous in his heart. He could still remain calm under the gazes of so many people. With his current shamelessness, he still could not do it. Only he knew the reason for his actions at this moment.

At this time last year, the number one middle ranked student challenged most of the high ranked students. With his terrifying strength, he fought to the end and pointed his sword at Guu Yulou, the number one high rank student. However, the champion of the intermediate level lost later on. He did not manage to defeat the first of the higher ranks. Although there was no earth-shattering spiritual battle in that battle, there was no doubt about the strength of the two sides of the battle. They had left a deep impression in each of their hearts.

And the number one person in the middle stage was Ye Qingyun.

When Mingsi saw Ling Zesheng's mighty appearance just now, his heart was filled with envy as well as admiration. However, in his heart, he could not help but recall a figure. After which, bits and pieces of him surged over like floodwater. The days of training in the academy and the scenes of him being together in the Heavenly Tower were like fingers tapping the strings of a zither as they quietly plucked Mingsi's heart.

"Senior Brother Qingyun, I want to help you complete what you didn't do back then. " Mingsi didn't know if Ye Qingyun wanted to win the first place of the high rank back then, but this was also the only thing Mingsi could do for Ye Qingyun.

And this was the reason why Mingsi was standing on the martial stage.

"Since ancient times, heroes have always done things they don't do. Who cares if the road ahead is filled with wind and rain?" Mingsi recalled the words his father had told him when he was young. In addition to the nostalgic feeling he had for Ye Qingyun, his heart gradually calmed down. His eyes were as calm as water, and there was also a hint of fighting spirit in them.

"Hwang Mingsi, what are you doing? Hurry up and get down!" Seeing that Mingsi was ignoring them, the people in the arena did not lose their anger. They walked straight towards Mingsi.

A figure flew out from the elder's seat. It was the Great Elder. He landed on the martial stage and stretched out his hand to stop the people who were walking towards Mingsi. After that, he bent down and said in a gentle voice, "Mingsi, senior disciple Ling Zesheng is the first in the high rank. Do you really want to have a competition?"

When the voice entered his ears, it was warm. The nervousness in Mingsi's heart was reduced by a little bit. He nodded heavily and said, "I have the confidence to have a try. I hope that Great Elder can approve it. "

Great Elder slowly nodded. Then, he turned around and said with a clear voice, "The path of cultivation is most likely full of obstacles. However, to defeat difficulties and obstacles, not only cultivation, but also courage. " As he spoke, he turned around and pointed at the Enlightenment Temple. He said with a smile, "He has this bit of courage, but I wonder if he has this kind of strength. "

Hearing this, the crowd stopped their discussions and looked at the martial stage seriously.

"Hwang Mingsi of the intermediate class one thinks he has the confidence to challenge Ling Zesheng. Do you want to watch this competition?" The Great Elder raised his voice a little more, his eyes carrying a smile as he slowly swept his gaze across the crowd of students.

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Then, someone shouted out first, "I want to watch!"

This voice was not loud, but it was very obvious, so more people immediately responded.

"I want to see it too!"

"Hwang Mingsi, although I don't think highly of you, I admire your courage!"

"Let him challenge. There is still a lot of time!"

The shouts rose and fell, one after another. On this day, all the students were already feeling excited, and now that this matter had been stirred up, there was even the Grand Elder's rather meaningful words. At this moment, everyone's interest was aroused, and they all expressed their support for the competition to continue.

Chen Ziming's eyes were filled with emotion. When he looked at Mingsi's not-so-tall figure, he could not help but feel slightly touched in his heart. He recalled the time when Mingsi had brought him to fight against the meteor in Chang'an. He recalled the scene where Mingsi had defeated the meteor earlier. He also recalled that year when Mingsi lost his arm. At this moment, he was very excited, and then he shouted out loudly.

"Mingsi! Do your best! Defeat Ling Zesheng! I believe in you!!"

Although there weren't many people who supported Mingsi, not many people believed that he could succeed in his challenge. Therefore, Chen Ziming's voice was heard at this moment. Many people looked over in surprise, and there were also many people who laughed at him in a manner that wasn't very obvious.

Since Chen Ziming had spoken, everyone in class one also began to encourage him. This was especially true for those few people who were playing with Mingsi. The ones who were doing well were actually flushed red at this moment, and their throats were hoarse from shouting. From this, one could tell how excited they were.

"Since that's the case, let's announce the start of the competition. " The Great Elder stroked his beard and said. Then, he flew back to the Elder's seating area.

"Great Elder, is this really appropriate?" As soon as the Great Elder sat down, the other elders expressed their doubts. Although they all understood the principle of courage, Mingsi's strength should be far weaker than Ling Zesheng's. Therefore, the competition would be meaningless.

The Great Elder sighed softly, "This is Dean Ye's intention. "

Hearing this, the elders were even more puzzled. But since the Great Elder said so, he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he furrowed his brows and looked at the two people who were about to compete.

The people in the arena looked at the Elder's seat suspiciously. Then, they cast a glance at Mingsi and shook their heads. Then, they slowly announced, "Fourth in the middle rank, Hwang Mingsi, challenges the first in the high rank, Ling Zesheng!"

As soon as this voice was heard, cheers sounded from the audience once again. At this moment, the competition had already begun. As people who were watching the show, they were not really concerned about winning or losing. As long as the competition was exciting, it was enough.

Mingsi let out a light breath and took a step forward. After standing up, he bowed and cupped his fists, "Senior brother, please guide me. "

Ling Zesheng didn't look down on Mingsi. He had seen Mingsi's battle before, and he had more or less acknowledged the latter's strength. When he saw Mingsi bowing, he bowed slightly and said in a low voice, "Junior brother has extraordinary courage. Senior brother admires you very much. I can't give you any advice, but it's a competition. Use your full strength. "

Although these words were very polite, it also showed Ling Zesheng's respect for Mingsi. If he did not teach Mingsi with his full strength, it meant that he had recognized Mingsi's strength.

This was also the respect for the test.

Mingsi seemed to have realized something, and he sighed with emotion in his heart, "As expected of Ling Zehong's elder brother. . . "

When the competition between the two was about to start, no one noticed Ye Yuntian's figure appearing in the sky again. He looked at Mingsi with anticipation and muttered to himself, "This little guy has only been in the Small Spiritual World for two days, but now he looks like a completely different person. The Small Spiritual World is like a completely different world. . . . . . . ”
