The Qingyun Sect Outer Gate Square is the place where the outer sect disciples practice daily. At the same time, various important announcements and tasks for the Qingyun Sect Outer Sect will also be posted on the notice boards and task boards in this square.
For example, the outer sect competition that will be held today.
The outer sect competition is held every three years. The rules are set by Shen Qingyun, and there will basically not be any big changes.
However, not long after Tang Mang came to Qingyun Sect, it was his first time to participate in the outer sect competition. He was not very clear about the specific rules of the competition, so when he and Tang Lin arrived at the outer sect square, they walked all the way to the bulletin board, ready to take a look.
What are the rules of the competition?
At this time, the sky was bright and it was not yet midnight, but there was a sea of people in front of the bulletin board, with a large number of outer disciples gathered.
Along the way, many people saw Tang Mang and stepped out of the way, whispering constantly.
"The second round of today's competition is about to begin. I wonder if Tang Mang can win the championship in one fell swoop?"
"This guy is a pervert, he will definitely win the championship."
"No, he passed the final trial of the illusion yesterday. What a terrifying strength he has!"
"He is indeed strong, but Li Huayun is not weak either. We will draw lots for a duel later, and if the two of them meet, we can have a quick look at him."
"Haha, I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I didn't expect that in the third round of the competition, the elders from the outer sect would not let the two of them face off."
"Isn't it a duel by drawing lots? It should be possible for the two of them to run into each other!"
"Are you too naive? Do you really think there is nothing fishy about drawing lots?"
"Yes, Tang Mang and Li Huayun are both geniuses from our outer sect. I'm afraid the elders won't let them face each other so early."
…
Tang Mang ignored others and walked through the crowd. Soon he and Tang Lin arrived in front of the public notice board.
The public notice board is a stone wall, seven feet long and two feet wide, with white paper and black characters on it, and the words "Rules of the Outer Gate Competition" written in huge fonts.
Standing in front of the crowd, Tang Mang read it over and memorized all the rules of the competition in his mind.
There are only a few rules for the competition: firstly, you cannot use weapons, secondly, you cannot attack too harshly and cause injuries, and thirdly...
Tang Mang remembered the rules, then said goodbye to Tang Lin, and strode to the distance where Li Huayun, Fang Tian, Shi Yu and others gathered and stood there.
Seeing Tang Mang coming, Li Huayun nodded slightly, Fang Tian curled his lips, and Shi Yu quickly came over and said with a smile: "Tang Mang, how are you preparing?"
"I have nothing to prepare."
Tang Mang spread his hands and changed the topic: "However, I will decide on the first place in the outer sect competition this time."
For some reason, Tang Mang's personality has changed a little after he has mastered basic swordsmanship. In the past, even if he was confident of winning the championship, he would not say it out loud. But after he has mastered basic swordsmanship, his whole person is vaguely like a sword.
And swords have an edge!
Therefore, he casually said whatever came to his mind without thinking there was anything wrong with it. Tang Mang even felt that this was what he should do.
In Tang Mang's words, "I have the strength, so let's be honest. Why hide my head and show my tail?"
Shi Yu felt the sharp aura emanating from Tang Mang, and was secretly surprised. He smiled bitterly and said, "Well, how can I be bright when I am born with Yu? With you in the outer sect, I, Fang Tian, and even Li Huayun have become foils."
Tang Mang shook his head and said: "Speaking of the physical realm, we are still mortals. Only when we reach the Kaiyuan realm can we be regarded as warriors."
"good."
Shi Yu nodded and grinned, "How about we make a bet to see who breaks through to the Kaiyuan Realm first."
Tang Mang glared and said, "Are you kidding? I am only at the ninth level of the physical realm, and you may be able to break through to the Kaiyuan realm at any time!"
"hehe!"
Shi Yu sneered.
At this moment, Yi Yun and more than a dozen outer sect elders strode over. Yi Yun didn't waste any time and said loudly: "I won't talk nonsense. Now, the 500 people who have entered the second round come to draw lots in front of me."
.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Huayun, Fang Tian and other five hundred people walked up and pulled out a jade stick from a huge wooden tube in front of Yi Yun.
Tang Mang was no exception. He followed the crowd and drew jade lots. He looked down and saw the number thirty-three engraved on the front of the jade lot.
Soon, everyone finished drawing lots, and Yi Yun said: "Okay, the No. 1 lottery will compete with the No. 2 lottery in Arena No. 1, and the No. 3 lottery will compete with the No. 4 lottery in Arena No. 2..."
After speaking, a total of twenty people boarded their respective arenas.
Today, the second round of the Outer Sect Competition officially begins, and a total of ten huge arenas have been set up in the Outer Sect Square. These arenas are where the disciples participating in the competition will compete.
"start."
As Yi Yun shouted loudly, the battle began instantly on the ten arenas.
In the outer sect of Qingyun Sect, in addition to Liger Fist, there are also many external exercises, such as Tongbei Fist and Bahuang Palm practiced by men, and Qingfeng Palm and Yunhe Fist practiced by women.
If these external skills are practiced to the extreme, they can break through the limits of the physical body and reach the Kaiyuan realm.
The external skills of cultivation are different, and the outcome depends on the level of cultivation and the understanding of each external skill.
Bang bang bang...
There was a continuous sound of fists clashing, and on the ten arenas, two pairs fought each other, back and forth, and the battle was fierce. Since both sides had similar cultivation levels, it was difficult to tell the winner in a short period of time.
As time passed and half a cup of tea passed, some people were defeated one after another and lost the qualification to enter the third round of the outer gate competition.
The winner jumped off the ring amidst the cheers of many outer disciples.
Yi Yun saw this and said loudly: "Okay, everyone, please be quiet. Now, the disciples who signed on the 21st to the 40th will come on stage."
Tang Mang drew lottery number 33, thought for a while, strode out, and climbed onto the seventh stage.
And his opponent quickly entered the ring, but when he saw that his opponent was Tang Mang, his face suddenly changed. He cursed secretly that he was unlucky for eight lifetimes, and blurted out: "I will admit defeat."
After saying that, he jumped off the stage and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Everyone saw it and didn't laugh at the person who gave in. After all, his opponent was a pervert like Tang Mang.
Tang Mang won without a fight. He was stunned for a moment, laughed dumbly, and without thinking much, turned around and got off the ring.
Not far away, seeing that Tang Mang had just stepped on the stage to face each other, and his opponent had given up, Yi Yun smiled and said, "Now, in the entire outer sect, except for Li Huayun, Fang Tian, and Shi Yu, I'm afraid it's hard for any disciple to dare to do it with Tang Mang."
Fight."
An outer sect elder smiled bitterly, "This guy is too strong. In my opinion, Li Huayun may not be able to hold on for long in his hands."
"Oh, you are so optimistic about Tang Mang. You must know that Li Huayun escaped from a Kaiyuan realm master. In terms of combat experience, he is much better than Tang Mang."
"In the face of absolute strength, any combat experience is of little use."
"makes sense."
…
While Yi Yun and other outer sect elders were talking in low voices, some outer sect disciples were defeated one after another, either flying out of the ring, or voluntarily admitting defeat and jumping off the ring.
