After the competition between Bai Qingzhou and Ji Heng ended, there was only one final battle left in the competition between the sects.
The last competition was between Ruan Xiuqi and a senior who had been practicing for about ten years.
Since the competition in the early stage of Qi refining cannot use various weapons, spells, etc., the competition relies entirely on the proficiency of fists, feet and the use of spiritual energy, so the viewing experience is much lower than the battle in the middle stage of Qi refining.
When the battle began, the two of them went back and forth, refusing to give in to each other. In addition, both of them had full cultivation of the third level of Qi Refining, and the fight turned out to be extremely exciting.
Because Ruan Xiuqi had many battles with Bai Qingzhou, his combat skills and ability to withstand blows were far superior to that of his senior brother. In the end, Ruan Xiuqi won the competition.
And with the end of his competition, the winners of the three realm competitions in the Qi Refining Period were also decided.
Early stage of Qi refining: Ruan Xiuqi.
Middle stage of Qi refining: Ji Heng.
Later stage of Qi refining: Zhang Zhiyan.
Looking at the three people standing on the ring, everyone looked envious. After all, these three people represented the highest combat power in each realm of Xuanyang Sect.
The three of them not only received honors, but also received rewards personally issued by the leader Li Yuyun.
After distributing rewards to the winning disciples, Li Yuyun stood on the stage, looked at the many disciples around him and said loudly:
"At this point, this sect competition has officially ended. The winning disciples must not be complacent and prepare well for the next competition. There is a more intense battle waiting for you. And the disciples who have not achieved results do not need to be discouraged.
Remember to practice diligently and strive to get a better ranking in the next competition!"
"Yes!" all the disciples replied in unison.
Then Li Yuyun whispered a word to Li Li next to him, jumped up, and flew out of the valley. The two elders on the high platform saw the leader leaving and followed him. The three of them disappeared in an instant.
In the valley.
This wave of operations once again made everyone look in admiration. You can fly briefly without using a flying magic weapon. This is the ability possessed by the foundation-building realm.
After several elders from the sect left, Chen Li added a few words on the scene.
What is unexpected is that the disciples who did not win can also get some rewards. Bai Qingzhou received two [Qi Training Pills] directly because of his excellent performance and generous rewards.
After Chen Li distributed the secondary rewards, everyone returned satisfied.
A moment later, in Bai Qingzhou's small courtyard.
Bai Qingzhou, Ruan Xiuqi, Meng Li, and Qin Yihan were sitting around the small stone table in the yard.
Since the two of them became acquainted, because Ruan Xiuqi would come to Bai Qingzhou every day for martial arts competitions, the four of them gradually gathered in Bai Qingzhou's yard to talk and chat, and they seemed to have developed a habit.
"Hey! Fatty Ruan, what reward did the master give you?" Qin Yihan asked immediately not long after he sat down.
The three of them all looked at Ruan Xiuqi. After all, all three of them were interested in the rewards personally distributed by the leader.
"Hey, Xiaohan, I'm not a fat guy..." Ruan Xiuqi first refuted Qin Yihan's title.
As he grows older, Ruan Xiuqi's figure is no longer as bloated as when he was a boy. After several years of training, his figure is now very standard, but Qin Yihan still calls him by his previous nickname, which makes him
He felt quite helpless.
Before Qin Yihan could continue to taunt, Ruan Xiuqi took out a secret book from his arms and said proudly: "The master gave me a secret book! It's mainly for exercise.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Shenfa! There are also some pills and so on."
A few people glanced at it and saw four big red characters written on the cover of the secret book - "Short Strike Shen Technique".
""Short Fighting Body Technique"? Why is this name so weird? What level is it?" Bai Qingzhou couldn't help but ask.
"It's a yellow-level low-grade one. The leader said it is very suitable for my current situation and can enhance my melee combat ability, hehe!" Ruan Xiuqi said happily.
Bai Qingzhou nodded and said with envy: "If you have the body technique, just practice it hard. If you have the secret book, it's better than the [Qi Refining Pill] that Meng Li and I have."
After saying that, he couldn't help but look at Meng Li, because both of them entered the finals and each received two [Qi Refining Pills].
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Qin Yihan immediately retorted loudly: "Oh, at least you all have rewards! Unlike me, I have nothing!"
Because Qin Yihan was defeated by Ji Heng in the first round of competition, he didn't even receive a second-rate reward this time.
When Bai Qingzhou heard this, he handed over a [Qi Refining Pill] and said with a smile: "Here, I'll give you one. Remember to practice in the future."
Bai Qingzhou was always generous to Qin Yihan.
Hearing this, Qin Yihan was overjoyed. He quickly took the [Qi Refining Pill] and thanked him happily: "Hehe, Bai Qingzhou, you are the best to me!"
But what no one noticed was that when Meng Li heard this, the corner of her mouth curled up slightly.
The three of them kept chatting, with Meng Li listening quietly from the side, and time slowly passed by inadvertently.
After chatting for two hours, we finally left after being hungry for several hours.
After seeing off a few people in the yard, Bai Qingzhou returned to the room, sat cross-legged on the futon in the room, and began to meditate with his eyes closed.
Carefully recalling all the gains and losses of today's battle, and constantly reviewing them in his mind, this is a habit that Bai Qingzhou has developed all along, and he will think carefully about it after every battle.
"Hey...if we fight across two small realms, there is still a big difference. In today's battle, I could barely fight against the fifth level of Qi Refining, but when facing Senior Brother Ji Heng on the sixth level of Qi Refining, there was no way.
The power to fight back..."
"If I had set up the spell earlier to lure him to the area before attacking..."
"My reflexes seem to be too poor, and I can't sense the danger in time..."
"This is still a competition in the sect. If we met in the wild, I might be dead at this moment..."
Bai Qingzhou kept envisioning the scenarios that would happen in his mind, how he would deal with such a scenario, and constantly thinking about how to improve his combat power.
...
Time flew by quickly, and more than twenty days passed in the blink of an eye.
After the sect competition, the sect returned to its usual boring and fulfilling days, but the disciples became quite diligent in their practice. Even Qin Yihan, who was usually lazy, began to meditate seriously. Apparently this time
The great competition had a great influence on his disciples.
The best news for Bai Qingzhou is that half a month after the sect competition ended, he took the [Qi Refining Pill] presented by the leader and successfully reached the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Bai Qingzhou made some calculations. When he was on the third level of Qi refining that day, he practiced every day towards the bottomless pit-like Dantian, diligently transporting spiritual energy. It took him a year and nearly a month to make the Dantian rupture, and the spiritual energy spread all over the place.
Vent and reach the fourth level of Qi refining.
When you are promoted from the fourth level of Qi Refining to the fifth level of Qi Refining, because there is no bottleneck, you can see the progress every day, and it just takes a lot of time.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It took ten months to successfully advance, three months faster than before, which surprised Bai Qingzhou.
I couldn't help but think to myself: If there are bottlenecks, it will really be blocked for too much time. No wonder Director Chen Li said that day that some bottlenecks cannot be broken through in a lifetime...
After the promotion is successful, the spiritual energy generated by daily meditation is no longer generated between the hands, but is generated in the legs.
The legs are constantly storing spiritual energy, which makes Bai Qingzhou's jumping ability even stronger. Now he can jump more than twenty feet in one leap. His leg strength has improved a lot than before, which has made Bai Qingzhou's strength rise to a higher level again.
.
Ruan Xiuqi also became more diligent. After learning the "Short Fighting Body Technique", in order to prepare for the Fangshi Arena Competition, he began to come to compete with Bai Qingzhou twice a day.
However, with the improvement of Bai Qingzhou's cultivation, the gap between the two people's strength has gradually widened. As a result, every time they spar, Bai Qingzhou needs to hold back his strength for fear of hurting Ruan Xiuqi. This makes Bai Qingzhou unable to give his full strength.
play.
But he would not dampen Ruan Xiuqi's interest. He would carefully compete with Ruan Xiuqi every time to improve his strength to a greater extent.
...
On this day, at the gate of the small courtyard.
"Senior brother, this time I am going down the mountain to deal with a murder case, so I came here to say goodbye to you!" Meng Li stood at the door and said seriously.
Looking at the junior sister in front of him, Bai Qingzhou smiled and said, "Junior sister, just pay attention to your safety!"
"This is my first time going down the mountain, and there are still many things I don't understand...I hope my senior brother can give me a few pointers." Meng Li lowered her head gently, her tone sincere.
"Um..." Bai Qingzhou was speechless for a moment, because he knew that with Meng Li's ability, it would be a big deal to deal with a small mortal murder case. He didn't know why she asked like this.
But when he asked a question, Bai Qingzhou could only simply remind him: "When you go down the mountain, you must protect your own life first. You can..."
"Junior Brother Bai!"
But before he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from far away.
Bai Qingzhou looked up and saw that it was Ji Heng descending slowly from the sky on the [Flying Cloud Spiritual Paper].
Bai Qingzhou and Meng Li looked at each other with questions in their eyes.
Why is Senior Brother Ji here...
"Senior brother!" The two of them saluted Ji Heng.
Ji Heng descended to the ground, put away the spiritual paper, smiled at Bai Qingzhou and said, "Junior brother, I came here today to discuss something with you."
"Oh? What's the matter? Senior brother comes in to discuss in detail." Bai Qingzhou bent down slightly and put his hands back in a leading gesture.
Hearing this, Ji Heng waved his hand and said directly: "No, this matter is more urgent, I will tell you directly at the door."
Bai Qingzhou couldn't help but said doubtfully: "Senior brother, please tell me..."
"I seem to have some insights in the past two days. This may be an opportunity for me to advance to the later stage of Qi refining. I want to find a place to retreat and hit the seventh level of Qi refining!"
Hearing this, Bai Qingzhou was shocked, because in a few days it will be time to leave for the Fangshi Arena Competition. At this time, Ji Heng will be in retreat. What will happen to the competition...
"What does senior brother mean?"
"As far as I know, you have been promoted to the fifth level of Qi Refining, and your sword skills are amazing. If I don't go to the ring competition, then I think you will be the most suitable candidate!"
"I have explained to the leader that you can take part in the competition in my place!"
