Jiang Ruochen and Yun Feiyu were silent for a while. After watching the battle between Mo Que and Nie Yu, they asked themselves that no one was sure they could beat Mo Que in a fight alone.
Mo Que's martial body is strong against Nie Yu's sword domain, and it will not be easy to defeat him.
But as the emperor's sect, they were unwilling to join forces to fight against the enemy.
"I originally thought that you were already physically weak and had no qualifications to be above me. You could not afford to be ranked second on the Bright Moon Ranking."
Jiang Ruochen was the first to speak, taking back the seven stars and saying: "But since you have the strength to fight with Nie Yu, I will temporarily allow you to be ranked before me!"
Only then did Mo Que realize that these top monsters came here not because they felt threatened, but because they could not tolerate being surpassed by him.
These geniuses were all arrogant and dissatisfied with being surpassed by a weak man like him, so they took action against him.
"In the end, only one of you Mo family's pride will be left. Only that person is worthy of my all-out fight." After Jiang Ruochen finished speaking, he put away the seven stars and walked away in the air.
Seeing Jiang Ruochen retreating, Yun Feiyu's face was as frosty as he said in a cold voice: "Mo Que, don't think that your current ranking has risen to second place on the Bright Moon Ranking, which means you are truly superior to the geniuses from all states!"
Regarding this point, Mo Que remained silent and did not refute.
Originally, he thought that being promoted to the second place on the Bright Moon Ranking meant that among the younger generation in Baizhou, only Mo Shang could catch his eye.
But he didn't know it until he fought against these geniuses today.
The reason why he was successfully promoted to second place is because there is still a time limit for the championship, and these geniuses have not really devoted their full efforts to the championship.
But in order to compete with Mo Shang, he tried his best.
You must know that even the Queen of the Emperor's Sect is not willing to easily enter other people's territory to compete for the title. Almost no one will do the crazy move of Mo Que, who is so unscrupulous and goes to various states to win the title.
"Whoosh!"
Yun Feiyu finally made no move and drifted away, apparently accepting the fact that Mo Que had been surpassed in the rankings.
"They're all gone? Then wouldn't it be very shameful for me to take action now? It would be like it was my turn after they stopped fighting!"
Chu Yin carried the long sword crazily and lost the will to fight, saying: "Forget it, let you and Mo Shang compete for the first place. Anyway, no matter which one of you fights for the first place, I will still be the one in the end.
Cut it off!”
He raised the long knife in his hand at Mo Que and strode away.
These geniuses come suddenly and leave quickly.
"Did I go too hasty?"
Mo Que went into hiding. This battle made him realize that there was still a gap between him and Mo Shang.
Three years ago, although he was defeated by Mo Shang due to poisoning, he knew Mo Shang's strength, and he was not necessarily weaker than he was three years ago.
Now, in the battle between him and Nie Yu, although he was not defeated, it was not easy to win.
Even Nie Yu couldn't defeat him, so what could he use to fight Mo Shang?
"The queens of the Imperial Sect are not in a hurry to compete for the title, but are steadily improving their strength through the period of competing for the title."
"Before the competition deadline, all rankings are just illusions. Only the person who stays until the end of the competition is the winner. Why rush?"
Next to a pool of water, Mo Que sat cross-legged. At this moment, he deeply realized his mistake.
He walked too fast and was too impatient.
Just like what the Sword King said to him before, the edge is too strong and the strength is easy to break. He is so impatient that he can easily get lost.
Just like Feng Yiming in Wan Yuan Sect, he was too impatient, so after viewing the Emperor Sword, not only did he not gain anything, but he went astray.
Once he sat by the pool, Moque didn't move for several days.
He is calming his sword heart again, just like the water in the pool.
In the past few days, he did not observe the way of the sun, nor did he understand the way of swordsmanship. He just sat quietly, letting everything go, forgetting everything and himself.
"Chirp!"
The red phoenix landed on his shoulder, swaying its little head from side to side, trying to imitate Mo Que's motionless appearance, but in the end, he couldn't hold on for a moment and could no longer remain still.
It flew away alone, and from time to time it brought back the carcasses of one or two beasts. Its small body was carrying carcasses dozens of times larger than itself, which looked extremely strange.
For several days, Mo Que had no water, but he was neither hungry nor thirsty.
After he emptied his mind and body, the internal solar energy in his body seemed to be more stable and smooth, and his bones, muscles, and blood seemed to be more closely connected.
Tao follows nature.
This is true even for the martial arts.
During the period when Mo Que was silent, the outside world was filled with news and various speculations.
"Isn't Mo Que going to compete with Mo Shang for the first place? Why did he suddenly disappear? Was he defeated by someone?"
"If you ask me, Mo Que is probably scared. He knows that he can't compete with Mo Shang, and he also knows that he has no protection from the Mo family and is ranked second. He has become a thorn in the side of the geniuses on the list!"
"Mo Shang is ranked first and no one dares to mess with him because he is backed by the Imperial Clan. But Mo Que has nothing and is ranked second. I don't know how many people are coveting the silver cauldrons on him!"
"It seems that the real number one person in the Mo family is Mo Shang after all!"
Various speculations and rumors are spreading across hundreds of states.
However, no matter how the outside world speculated, Moque never showed up or responded.
Day after day passed like this, and people gradually began to forget Mo Que and pay attention again to the other contenders on the list.
They thought that the battle for first place between Mo Que and Mo Shang would be extremely fierce, but no one expected that Mo Que would fall silent so quickly.
After more than ten days passed, Mo Que's ranking fell from second place on the list again and was surpassed by others.
"It seems that Mo Que is indeed far inferior to Mo Shang. He can't even keep the second place. Unlike Mo Shang, who has been competing for the top spot and has always been in the first place!"
"I think it is very likely that Mo Shang will be the first person to enter the Haori Ranking!"
People no longer pay attention to the fight between Mo Que and Mo Shang, because in the eyes of the world, the strength of these two people is too disparate.
People from various states are now more concerned about when Mo Shang will be included in the Haori Ranking.
Mo Que sat by the pool for a whole month.
If Chihuang hadn't helped him pick up fallen leaves from time to time, he would have been covered with fallen leaves.
A month later, Mo Que opened his eyes. His eyes were like an ancient well, deep and waveless.
This is a reflection of the sword's heart becoming more determined.
"Chirp!"
Red Phoenix flew over and saw Mo Que opening his eyes and shouting happily beside him.
"I've neglected you this month." Mo Que smiled.
It also takes courage to be able to stop for a month in the middle of the competition, neither to practice nor to compete.
He seemed to have gained nothing this month, but in fact it was what he needed most now, to sharpen his edge and wash away his brilliance.
"Chirp!"
The red phoenix was shouting and flying in the air, going back and forth in the same direction.
"You want to take me somewhere?" Mo Que was surprised. After spending some time together, he could already understand the meaning of Chi Huang's movements.
"Chirp!" the red phoenix shouted repeatedly, expressing its affirmation and signaling Mo Que to follow it to the forest ahead.
This made Mo Que secretly wonder that Chihuang was not interested in ordinary things. During this month, this little guy was looking for food in the south. Did he find something?
