***With the appearance of Dongfang Bo, Dao Tianyou's heart finally relaxed completely.
Although he didn't know why Dongfang Bo didn't point out his relationship with Jiang Yun, and asked Dao Tianyun to wait for Jiang Yun to arrive and punish him for all crimes, he knew better than anyone else that Dongfang Bo and his five masters and disciples
, the most protective of shortcomings!
If Dao Tianyun really wants to harm Jiang Yun, then Dongfang Bo will never let him go.
As for Dao Tianyun, even though he couldn't figure out what Dongfang Bo's purpose was, he didn't dare to drive Shanhai branch sect, Dao Tianyou and others out of this place in front of him, let alone kill them.
Therefore, he could only say expressionlessly: "Since it is Senior Dongfang who has spoken, let us put aside the matter of the Shanhai branch for the time being, and wait until their sect leader Jiang Yun appears before making a decision!"
With an order from Dao Tianyun, Dongfang Bo removed the space that restrained the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall and made them all retreat.
A catastrophic disaster targeting the Shanhai branch was resolved because of the appearance of Dongfang Bo and a few words of understatement.
However, everyone also knew that this matter was not over yet, it was just pushed back temporarily. When Jiang Yun appeared, the matter would ferment again.
Naturally, even Dan Daozi and others are a little curious about the relationship between Dongfang Bo, Jiang Yun, and the Shanhai branch.
Although the status of the Shangdao Master Realm cannot be compared with that of Dao Zun, it is still slightly higher than that of the head of the Nine Dao Sect.
However, the dignified Taoist master unexpectedly met Jiang Yun, whom no one had ever heard of before.
Moreover, judging from the attitude of Dao Tianyou, Lan Huazhao and other members of Shanhai Branch towards Dongfang Bo, it is obvious that they are very familiar with each other.
Of course they would not have thought that Dongfang Bo had been a disciple within the Shanhaidao branch for several years.
They would never have thought that Dongfang Bo was not the only one, but that all the three palm realms in this world had once been disciples of the Shanhai Dao branch.
Even these three palm realms have a common junior brother Jiang Yun!
…
Now that the matter of the mountain and sea branching sects has been put aside, the intra-sect competition of the Taoist sect will naturally begin!
As for the rules of the competition, they are not much different from previous competitions.
The competition is divided into three processes, namely individual battle, group battle, and challenge!
Among them, individual battles and group battles are carried out at the same time.
Because those who came to participate in the competition were from the fifth to ninth level branch sects, starting from the fifth level, two branch sects of the same level competed with each other, with a total of three competitions.
The first two games are fought individually, while the latter two are group battles.
For group battles, each branch sect sends at least five people to compete with each other.
Two out of three games, the winner advances, the loser is eliminated directly, until the only winner in each level is determined.
Naturally, this also means that among the hundreds of branch sects participating in the competition, only five branch sects can win in the end.
But even if they win, it does not mean that they will be qualified to stay in Daotian. The seven elders still need to measure the comprehensive strength of the five branch sects and then decide whether they can stay.
In addition to the same-level competition, there is also a challenge competition!
That is to say, each branch sect has an opportunity to challenge other branch sects, or even leapfrog challenges!
For example, a fifth-level branch is eligible to challenge any branch at level six or seven**.
Even the branch sect that has been eliminated is still eligible to challenge the branch sect that ultimately wins.
If you win the challenge at the same level, you can directly replace the branch sect's status.
If you win the leapfrog challenge, it may even be possible to directly increase the level of the branch.
This is equivalent to giving each branch sect two opportunities, and what many branch sects care about most is the challenge, because this is the real opportunity to reach the sky in one step!
"Now let's start drawing lots, and fight in pairs according to the order of the lots you each drew!"
Dao Tianyun waved his sleeve, and hundreds of bamboo sticks suddenly floated in front of him. Each of the hundreds of branch sects sent people to pick one out.
In order to prevent cheating, each bamboo stick is covered with a layer of light that can block spiritual consciousness.
Xia Zhongxing was about to stand up, but Dongfang Bo had already reached out and saw a bamboo stick falling directly into his hand. After he glanced at the number on the bamboo stick, he smiled slightly and said, "Good luck."
,twenty!"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not Dongfang Bo's luck. It is clearly his spiritual consciousness that penetrated the light outside the bamboo stick and deliberately chose the last number, so that the Shanhai branch could be the last one to play!
Although everyone knew it well, due to his status as a master, everyone could only pretend not to see it.
Only An Changzai shook his head and said with a bit of dissatisfaction: "If I had known that Dongfang Bo was coming, why would I have bothered to put in a good word for them!"
It was not until the drawing of lots for all branch sects that Dao Tianyun said: "Starting from the fifth-level branch sects, all branch sects will report their numbers!"
"Fifth-level branch sect Chengyun Sect, No. 1!"
"Fifth-level branch Qiming Sect, No. 2!"
…
"Fifth-level branch sect Liuli Sect, No. 19!"
Upon hearing the name of the Liuli branch, almost all the branches immediately looked at the Shanhai branch with gloating eyes.
Because the Liuli Branch Sect is extremely powerful. Not only did it rank first among the five-level branch sects in several consecutive competitions, but it was originally only a fourth-level branch sect. However, in the challenge, it forcibly challenged all the five-level branch sects that year.
A branch sect is directly promoted to level five after winning.
The most important thing is that the Liuli branch is also one of the seven branches that gave birth to the light of inquiry!
Logically speaking, the encounter between Liuli Branch Sect and Shanhai Branch Sect should have been the most exciting competition among the five levels.
However, the strength of the Shanhai Branch Sect lets everyone know that this competition will be a massacre!
When they thought about it, there was no way the Shanhai branch could defeat the Liuli branch, no matter whether it was an individual battle or a group battle!
Everyone in the Shanhai branch also smiled bitterly in their hearts. Originally, they were thinking about whether they and others would be lucky enough to encounter a weak branch.
Although they don't care whether they can stay in Wentaotian, after all, they represent the Shanhai branch and Jiang Yun.
They are also eager to win, eager to have everyone recognize their mountain and sea branch in this highly anticipated occasion, and to bring glory to Jiang Yun's face.
But now it seems that this wish has been completely shattered.
Even though they have confidence in the group battle, they will definitely lose the two individual battles.
Dongfang Bo glanced at Dao Tianyun thoughtfully and said to himself: "Hey, I'm still a little anxious. I just wanted to delay as much time as possible and let the Shanhai branch be the last one to play, but I forgot to give them a choice.
A weak opponent."
"This destiny is so cruel, it took revenge on me so quickly!"
How could Dongfang Bo fail to see that the reason why the Liuli Branch Sect drew No. 19 and became the opponent of the Shanhai Branch Sect was deliberately arranged by Dao Tianyun.
"In other words, there are still four major competitions before the Shanhai branch takes place. Junior brother, junior brother, can you make it before the four competitions are over?"
"If you can't arrive, then Senior Brother, I will have no choice but to shamelessly fight on your behalf!"
At this moment, Dao Tianyun said loudly again: "Okay, I'm going to let the Taoist sect's competition officially begin!" ***
