"Wake up?" Lu Chaoge frowned.

He looked at Heiting and continued to ask: "Then do you feel anything strange about your body?"

This is what he cares about most.

Heiting shook his head, indicating that apart from the phantom-like scene, he did not feel any discomfort.

And the strange thing is that Heiting doesn't feel scary about this illusion.

Logically speaking, he was on a black sea, a vast space, but he was alone.

There were still murmurs coming from below, as if there were countless voices hidden under the sea calling him.

This must be a terrifying fantasy.

But Heiting's heart was very calm, and he didn't feel the slightest fear about all this.

On the contrary, the black ocean gave him a very peaceful feeling.

His level of peace of mind was no less than that of his master who took him to Danqing Peak when he was at a loss after being ordered to do so by the half-blind man.

At first, the young boy Heiting would have nightmares every night.

Fortunately, he was a swordsman and a handyman disciple at that time. He was responsible for taking care of Lu Chaoge's food and daily life, so he lived in the same bamboo house with him.

Whenever he wakes up from a dream in the middle of the night, feeling cold all over and drenched in cold sweat, Lu Chaoge's impatient yet reassuring voice will always come from inside the house: "I'm here."

Although Heiting didn't understand the meaning of the murmurs in the black ocean, he could feel that they were not malicious.

"It's no problem." Lu Chaoge nodded slightly and did not delve into this aspect.

Heiting is obviously very special, and we have to slowly discover what secrets he has.

But having said that, among the disciples currently staying in Danqing Peak, the short Mo Dongfang seems to be relatively ordinary, but he has a very good character.

Xiaoqiu is extremely talented, she is [Chance 9], and her temperament is most like Lu Chaoge.

Luo Bing's talent is not bad, and the system has given hints that there is a chance for her to trigger a hidden plot.

As for the few disciples who are still training at the foot of the mountain, they also have their own strengths.

"The melons my sister and I have picked up over the years are all people with a bright future." Lu Chaoge sighed in his heart.

The night was getting darker, Lu Chaoge and Lu Dongli were walking under the moonlight.

The bamboo house they lived in was on the same road, so they went back together.

"Brother, do you know what the next few days will be?" Lu Dongli asked suddenly.

"Huh?" Lu Chaoge suddenly became sensitive.

Once a woman asks this kind of date-related question, it can easily turn into a proposition.

Lu Chaoge racked his brains and couldn't remember any important events recently.

"Isn't your birthday more than a month away?" Lu Chaoge asked.

There is still some time before this year’s winter solstice.

Lu Dongli took a few steps forward and walked in front of Lu Chaoge, then turned around and looked up at Lu Chaoge, who was half a head taller than her.

"My sister has really beautiful eyes and long eyelashes." This was Lu Chaoge's first reaction.

Of course, it would be better if her eyes didn't look so disgusting.

"Brother, I really don't know what I'm thinking about all day long, how can I forget such an important day!" Lu Dongli said angrily.

"Girl, please let me know clearly!" Lu Chaoge said with cupped hands.

Lu Dongli snorted and said seriously: "As the only elder of Mo Sect, I hereby solemnly inform the leader that in a few days, it will be the triennial ranking day for the three hundred subordinate sects of Sword Sect!"

Lu Chaoge showed a look of sudden understanding and said cooperatively: "Wow, that's what happened!"

Although Lu Dongli didn't understand what "Wow" meant, she could see Lu Chaoge's confidence.

The so-called ranking day is actually the ranking of the three hundred subordinate sects.

Among them, most of them in [Xiabaimen] are not sorted.

The Sword Sect is very humane, taking care of the face of the bottom sect and giving everyone a fig leaf.

At the same time, anyway, the strong ones are so strong that a hundred flowers can bloom, and the weak ones are so weak that they are only half as weak. It’s really hard to sort those at the bottom!

Rookies are pecking each other, and it's hard to tell who's better!

Therefore, in [Xiabaimen], only the top ten will have specific rankings.

However, this does not mean that the remaining 90 sects enjoy the same resource treatment.

These 90 sects are divided into three classes, with 30 sects in each class. The cultivation resources allocated to these three classes are fundamentally different.

As the honorary bottom player among the lower hundred sects, Momen is naturally the lowest.

What is worth mentioning is that, in fact, the rankings are done every three years, and the rankings of "Hundreds of Gates" and "Middle Hundred Gates" are relatively stable.

Especially those at the top of [Hundreds of Sects], some sects have been in high positions for hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years!

On the contrary, [Xiabaimen], the competition is fierce, there is a wave of "Enter the Dragon" every three years, and the ranking changes are ridiculous.

Some people from the lower class may suddenly reach the middle class, and some people from the middle class may suddenly fall into the lower class.

And the top ten, which have specific rankings, also fluctuate greatly.

Maybe a certain senior executive has been stuck in a bottleneck for many years. Once he breaks through, the entire sect will follow the chicken and the dog to heaven.

But in some sects, there are only a few who can be said to be strong. If they fail accidentally, the entire sect will be downgraded.

In the final analysis - there is no foundation!

As for how this ranking is judged?

Jian Zong has its own set of processes and standards, and everyone is convinced of this.

As far as Lu Chaoge knows, Tianji Tower may participate in the rating and provide some information for Sword Sect's reference.

Tianji Tower is such a special organization. Its combat power may be average, but it has business dealings with many major sects.

A female pagoda master like Xuan Ji who is good at dancing and socializing with others has deep friendships with many high-level sects.

It's so deep that it touches your heart, and it's so thick that it's sticky.

But no matter what, Tianji Tower still has a good reputation in terms of business.

The principle of Tianji Tower is - never fake anything.

Of course, since it is a principle, the whole sentence is generally: in principle, never make a lie.

Therefore, these days, Tianji Tower should also collect a wave of relevant information about all the subordinate sects of Jianzong.

As for some sects that are ambitious and want to make further progress, they must be working hard to make some big news these days!

Therefore, these days are probably also the peak period for [Asking the Sword].

The so-called "asking for swords" refers to the consultation and discussion among swordsmen.

This is a very common thing.

For example, after a certain sect's elders break through, they go to other sects to show off and slap them in the face. This kind of thing often happens.

After all, there are grievances and grudges between sects.

It's just that Momen has been very peaceful these years. After all, everyone is attacking high up, and no one is free to abuse down below. There is no benefit to be said, and it also has a bad reputation.

This kind of thing happened over time, and the three days before the ranking day were also called Qingzhou's Sword Asking Day.

During these three days, there will even be discussions between great practitioners!

These days are so lively!

It is estimated that the entire Qingzhou spiritual practice community will have something new to talk about every day after dinner.

Getting back to the subject, to be honest, Momen hides many secrets.

There are many secrets that outsiders know nothing about.

But Lu Chaoge felt that just showing his comprehensive strength would be enough to take Momen's ranking a big step up.

Mainly because his performance in the trial ground was exaggerated and outrageous enough.

He is now very popular among the younger generation in Qingzhou.

Some outsiders even say that he is far stronger than Yu Yue who is at the same level!

Many people say these things, some may really think so, some may be flattering, and some may be deliberately intensifying conflicts.

However, after Yu Yue heard the rumors, she was calm on the surface but ecstatic on the inside.

"Finally, someone has noticed the excellence of Senior Brother Chao Ge!" He even expressed his gratitude to You.

Of course, he will still resolutely guard the secrets that should be guarded.

In addition, there are also rumors that Lu Chaoge, the leader of the Mo Sect, is invincible in all three realms and can fight in all four realms!

He was not treated as a second-level practitioner at all.
