Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

Chapter 234 - 234 The Arena Battle



234 The Arena Battle

This was only the primary selection stage, so the Sect Master would not come. He would only let the sect’s eldest disciple come to preside over it.

The eldest disciple of the Sect Master took out his Sect Master’s token, and 30 arenas appeared on the square.

The head’s eldest disciple read out the rules, then used a magic tool to choose a number. The chosen one would go up to the arena to compete. If the person who had chosen a number did not arrive in 15 minutes, it was considered a forfeit.

Dong Xi was at the Qi Refinement stage, so her number would usually be in the 1st to 10th ring.

During the registration, there was a special test of cultivation. The sect would separate the more powerful disciples to avoid meeting them in the first round.

Qi Refinement stage disciples like Dong Xi could be said to be cannon fodder and would not fight to the end.

Those who could make it all the way to the end were all at the tenth level of the least Qi Refinement stage. Some inner sect disciples would also cultivate to the twelfth level of Qi Refinement in order to be better in the future.

There would be a huge gap between these disciples and the other disciples. For example, Dong Xi and the others could not beat them at all.

Dong Xi was very self-aware, she had signed up for a fight and just wanted to test out her swordsmanship and movement technique. She did not want to win.

A layer of protective shield protected the 30 rings, and the numbers on it kept on rolling.

Dong Xi was number 172. Dong Xi was not among the disciples drawn in the first round.

“Little Xi, Little Xi, it’s Chi Yan!” Ke Xin shouted excitedly. “Arena number 3, let’s hurry over and take a look?”

Dong Xi looked over and saw Chi Yan standing on the third arena. She was tall and had an overbearing aura, like a sharp sword.

“Alright, let’s go and take a look!” Dong Xi immediately said.

After saying that, the two of them ran towards the third arena.

Many people, like Dong Xi and the others, ran to the third arena. Chi Yan had joined the sect at the same time as them, and was the strongest person in this group.

Everyone wanted to know how big the gap was between her and Chi Yan.

Apart from Dong Xi and the other disciples, the rest of the people did not care much. After all, the cultivation of this group of disciples was very low. In the eyes of high-level cultivators, a battle at this level was like child’s play.

Dong Xi brought Ke Xin and squeezed through the crowd with all her might before she managed to reach the front.

Chi Yan’s disciples had entered the sect earlier than them, and had only cultivated for a dozen years more.

This person was already at the eighth level of the Qi Refinement stage, two levels higher than Chi Yan.

Furthermore, he also had three spirit roots. It was normal for him to reach the eighth level of the Qi Refinement stage.

Those who had better aptitudes would cultivate two more cultivation realms, and by then, they would have a perfect foundation.

However, this senior disciple brother could not do that. It was extremely difficult to reach the perfected Foundation Establishment stage. If he missed it, it would be even more difficult to reach the Foundation Establishment stage in the future.

The only reason he participated in this competition was to compare notes with everyone.

He had never thought that he would encounter Chi Yan as soon as he came up. Everyone in the sect knew that Chi Yan had a heavenly spirit root. When she cultivated, she would make rapid progress. Now, they could still spar on the same stage, but the next time, they would be in a different realm.

In the face of a genius like Chi Yan, although this Senior Brother’s cultivation was slightly higher, he did not dare to be arrogant.

“I’m a talisman grandmaster, An Yu. Please enlighten me, Junior Sister,” An Yu cupped her fists and said.

“Chi Yan, swordsman master,” said Chi Yan with cupped fists.

Then, the blazing flame sword appeared in Chi Yan’s hand.

Chi Yan’s surrounding spiritual energy fluctuated, and the red feathers on her head were like swaying flames.

Although Chi Yan’s cultivation level was slightly lower, when she looked at An Yu’s serious expression, it seemed as if Chi Yan’s cultivation level was higher.

There were also rules in such a competition. Any equipment was allowed, and there were no level restrictions as long as it could be used.

After all, equipment was also a form of strength.

Chi Yan’s magic weapon was the raging flame sword in his hand, while An Yu took out a talisman.

Dong Xi had also seen Second Senior Brother use talismans to destroy demon beasts in the past. It was also because of that time that Dong Xi had a big misunderstanding about the attack power of talisman cultivation.

Dong Xi believed that all the talisman cultivators did was seals to attack. No matter if it was for attack or defense, as long as one threw out a lot of talisman papers, it would exhaust the other party to death.

Now, An Yu, who was competing with Chi Yan, kept retreating with his body movement technique and occasionally threw out a few talismans to attack.

There were even times when it would take him a long time to throw out a talisman. Dong Xi was a little anxious.

Dong Xi did not think about how many missions his group of little disciples needed to complete in order to exchange for a set of cinnabar and a professional talisman paper. Even if they made all of them themselves and could save resources, they had to spend money making talismans, and it was not a 100 percent success rate.

How could anyone be willing to throw them all out at once? They were not throwing talismans, but spirit stones!

Cultivators of the fire spirit root had a bad temper, not to mention that Chi Yan had a heavenly spirit root. After failing to touch him several times, she was instantly enraged.
