Chapter 2723 - 2726: The Graceful Young Master Versus the "Imposter" Ling Xiao

The next day, the Demon Dragon City Plaza was already packed.

More eye-catching than the mid-level disciples' selection tournament was naturally the selection for the high-ranking candidate disciples.

Ling Xiao also arrived here early.

Although he didn't know who his opponent would be, he was truly eager for the selection tournament to start soon.

For others, secluded cultivation might be better, but for him, constant combat was more beneficial to the recovery and enhancement of his cultivation level.

"Disciple, I have something to tell you. If you can get into the top three in the high-level candidate selection, you definitely must!"

Chen Buyi suddenly said.

"Why? Is there something different about it?"

Ling Xiao asked curiously.

"Naturally different, a total of ten people are to be selected as high-ranking candidates, but only the top three are qualified to go to the Demon Scripture Hall of the Demon Dragon Sect!"

Chen Buyi laughed.

"Demon Scripture Hall? Is it a place that houses martial arts classics?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"Yes, precisely such a place. In fact, martial artists participating in the high-ranking candidate selection all have the thought of entering the Demon Scripture Hall.

It's just that some are capable, while others aren't."

Chen Buyi explained with a smile: "Don't you want to obtain the Four Supreme Martial Arts of the Demon Dragon Sect?

As long as you can become the first among the high-ranking candidate disciples, you will have the qualification to obtain the 'Demon Dragon Illusion'.

If ranked second or third, you can obtain a set of divine-grade, second heaven level martial arts."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile.

Being able to obtain 'Demon Dragon Illusion' in advance is tremendously meaningful to him.

This 'Demon Dragon Illusion' is a divine-grade, third heaven level martial art, learning it early would certainly be more useful.

It's known that currently most martial artists with First transformation Yin-Yang Realm - Eleventh Layer Hell cultivation level are proficient only in divine-grade first heaven martial arts, and only a few geniuses can obtain divine-grade second heaven martial arts.

If Ling Xiao can master divine-grade third heaven martial arts, he would be ahead of others.

"That's great, Master, what you said was truly timely, don't worry, I will strive to win the first place."

Although Ling Xiao is also interested in divine-grade second heaven martial arts, since there's a better option, he naturally chooses the better one.

"With your current cultivation level, it's possibly a bit difficult, unless you can continuously enhance your cultivation level in combat and restore to your original realm.

Once restored, there are really only about three or four people who can pose a threat to you.

However, they all belong to mid-level disciples of Alexander Yin Mountain; not easy opponents.

At this stage, encountering Liu Yan would be very difficult for you, I hope you don't face him."

As far as Chen Buyi was concerned, he certainly hoped his disciple could perform more excellently in the high-ranking candidate selection.

This would also bring him glory.

But Ling Xiao's thinking was different from his.

He actually wished to encounter stronger opponents.

Soon, the selection tournament began.

Quite a few people participated in the high-ranking candidate selection, at least a thousand.

However, compared to the tens of thousands of mid-level disciples, it was still quite few.

Among these thousand people, Ling Xiao's apparent cultivation level was naturally the lowest.

Martial artists like Zheng Quan and Liu Xu wouldn't dare participate in such a selection.

Because not only would they gain nothing from combat, but it would also bruise their confidence.

So, the martial artist participating in this selection, the worst cultivation level was also Late Hell Stage Cultivation of First transformation Yin-Yang Realm Tenth Level Hell.

Of course, excluding Ling Xiao.

This guy is an anomaly.

Ling Xiao couldn't care less about the battles ahead. He kept sitting there silently, activating the potential within him, preparing for a sprint.

Thus, once he fought, the chances of breaking through his cultivation level would be greater.

An entire shichen later, Ling Xiao finally heard his name.

"Next battle in the selection is Liu Yan versus Ling Xiao!"

Upon hearing this, he slowly opened his eyes.

And right now, almost all eyes were on him, most of which were unfriendly.

It seemed they were all waiting to see Ling Xiao make a fool of himself.

Chen Luan chuckled bitterly and said: "Brother Ling, you can't lose, those people are all waiting to see you make a fool of yourself.

They know that Liu Yan is a martial artist of First transformation Yin-Yang Realm Tenth Layer Pinnacle Cultivation and is far superior to that Thirteenth Prince.

His strength, even among the mid-level disciples, is considered above average.

And as the direct grandson of the Third Sect Elder, he possesses a very powerful magical treasure, rumoured to be able to absorb the opponent's Qi-blood; once taken out at a critical moment, it would make the opponent very uncomfortable."

"A magical treasure that can absorb Qi-blood?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao chuckled inwardly, "That's great, I'll see if your magical treasure is more powerful or if my Bloodthirsty Plague Rat is more powerful!

However, you'd better hold on until I unleash Bloodthirsty Plague Rat, otherwise it would be too disappointing.

Perhaps the Demon Dragon Blood Curse will deal with you."

Ling Xiao didn't even know what extent he could play against Liu Yan right now.

Because his cultivation level could break through at any time.

Once breakthrough, the difficulty of dealing with Liu Yan will be greatly reduced.

No need for Child God Divine Power.

"Disciple, strive to unleash your strongest strength, let that old fellow Third Sect Elder see that the disciple of Chen Buyi is not just bragging."

Chen Buyi himself is very strong, but his adopted children haven't turned out well, always feeling oppressed, it's not a good feeling.

"Losing shouldn't happen, but the battle scene, I can't control it."

Ling Xiao sighed, for when he goes on a rampage, even he is scared of himself.

He stood up, transformed into a wolf shadow, and instantly reached the arena.

The graceful figure caused quite a few female disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect to exclaim.

But in the end his foundation was too shallow, those exclamations were quickly overwhelmed by another stronger cheer.

Because Liu Yan had taken the stage.

Liu Yan really knows how to show off, deliberately turning a few graceful circles in the air before gracefully landing.

Dressed in white, he indeed had quite a bit of the demeanor of a refined young man.

In his hand, he held a fan.

This fan, at a glance, wasn't ordinary, but a divine-grade spiritual tool level weapon.

On the same level as Ling Xiao's Eight Immortals Sword.

The moment he landed, the scene erupted with tsunami-like crazy cheers and shouts of encouragement.

It sounded like most people in the Demon Dragon Sect hoped this refined young man Liu Yan could defeat the imposter Ling Xiao.

"If you can't even pass Liu Yan, what right do you have to compete with me for the disciple qualification of the Sect Master?

To be honest, I really hope you win, but I truly don't see any hope for your victory!

Liu Yan is no waste like Shi San, after being instructed by the Third Sect Elder, he is already about to break through to the Eleventh Layer of Hell Cultivation.

Facing him, you stand no chance.

I want to see why this waste should compete with me!"

His heart carried a desire, longing for Liu Yan to defeat Ling Xiao, so that his wounded spirit could recover.
