After the three swords fought, Yun Ruoyan was not damaged at all, while Li Zizong was injured in his right arm. It was obvious that this battle ended in the failure of Li Zizong!

"I'm defeated!"

"Your strength is indeed unfathomable. I have a feeling that your true strength is far more than the ones that have just been shown. You are the one among our disciples who have the most hope to challenge Xiao Yiran. Others, such as Zhang Aotian and Lin Qingxue, have a very shallow foundation. As for Ye Ming, the first outer disciple of the last session, it was a flash in the pan and has been left far away..."

He let out a long breath from his mouth, and Li Zizong said slowly.

With a moving body, Li Zizong flew from the second stone platform to the third stone platform.

Although he fought with Yun Ruoyan, the two of them were mainly engaged in competitions. Even though Li Zizong failed in the end, his injury was not serious. To be precise, it was just a skin trauma, so he was not immediately eliminated like Tao Yan before. Even Li Zizong could still occupy the position of the third stone platform of the Broken Sword Cliff. Except for Zhang Aotian on the fourth stone platform, almost no one is qualified to challenge Li Zizong's position. Even if Zhang Aotian faces Li Zizong, it is unknown which wins and who loses.

"Senior Brother Li Zizong was defeated?"

"As expected, Senior Sister Yun Ruoyan's strength is unfathomable. Defeating Senior Brother Li Zizong is definitely not an upset!"

The disciples of the Sword Forging Sect who were watching below talked.

"Just now, Senior Brother Li Zizong and Senior Brother Yun Ruoyan seemed to be competing in swordsmanship and did not display their true qi. If they display their true qi, their combat power will inevitably increase in a straight line!"

"Senior Sister Yun Ruoyan should be practicing Elder Piaoyun's "Yunhuangjin". She has reached the ninth level of the earth level. Although Senior Brother Li Zizong has a slightly higher cultivation level, he is practicing the top-notch "The Line of the Nether Peak". Comparing true qi may not be the opponent of Senior Sister Yun Ruoyan. Senior Sister Yun Ruoyan's victory is also worthy of his reputation!"

Many disciples of the Sword Forging Sect below saw that Yun Ruoyan had not used his true energy to fight with Li Zizong.

The skills that Yun Ruoyan practiced are at the lowest level of the earth level.

The Li Zi Sect's martial arts are at the top level of human level, and they are inherently weaker.

Although the top seven disciples of the inner sect of the Sword Forging Sect can practice the lower level of the earth level martial arts, the ones they practice may not be all the lower level of the earth level martial arts.

The difficulty of practicing low-level martial arts and martial arts in the ground level is far beyond that of the human-level top-level martial arts. Generally speaking, only those with outstanding talents can cultivate several low-level martial arts and martial arts. If you are not talented enough, you usually only choose one or two earth-level martial arts and martial arts.

For example, Li Zizong, the sword technique is the lowest level of the Earth level, but the martial arts technique is only the best level of the human level. His talent is not as high as the Earth level technique. He must practice the Earth level technique, but he may not be able to do it, but will be dragged down by the martial arts technique. In the end, there will be no achievements, which will be harmful or useless.

This time, Li Zizong and Yun Ruoyan competed, and both sides had a tacit understanding and did not use true energy. One reason was that they competed in competitions, not life-and-death battles, and there was no need to give out all the trump cards; the second reason was that the two still wanted to preserve their strength and deal with the challenges of other disciples of the Sword Forging Sect.

"Li Zizong was still defeated by Yun Ruoyan's sword?"

On the fourth stone platform of Broken Sword Cliff, Zhang Aotian glanced at Li Zizong, and light flashed in his eyes.

"I don't know what the chances of winning if I fight Li Zizong..."

This time, Zhang Aotian participated in the competition for inner disciples, and his goal was definitely not just the top seven. His goal was very clear, and he was the top three inner disciples of the sword-making sect!

In addition to Xiao Yiran and Yun Ruoyan, Zhang Aotian wants to step on all the disciples of the Sword Forging Sect under his feet and let them become stepping stones for his strong rise!

"I practiced the lower-grade skills of the Earth-level "Yunxiao Jue", and the sword technique has also been replaced by the lower-grade skills of the Earth-level "Yunxiao Three Swords". When fighting with Li Zizong, there is at least a chance of winning. Now he has just lost. I will challenge him. If you win, you won't be a martial artist, wait a little longer!" Zhang Aotian said intimately.

"It's a pity that Ye Ming has been missing for a year and a half, and I'm afraid he's afraid to come to participate in the inner disciple competition... I can't step on him. This is my only regret for the inner disciple competition!" Ye Ming's figure appeared in Zhang Aotian's mind.

———————

Cuiyun Valley, in the secret realm of the cave.

"It's a little bit, it's only a little bit!"

"As long as I understand this thoroughly, I can completely master the second level of true Qi lock of the "Qiankun Lock Method" and immediately walk out of the secret realm of this cave and participate in the competition for the inner disciples of the Sword Forging Sect!"

Ye Ming sat cross-legged at the light curtain at the entrance of the cave, frowned, and tried his best to understand the last key point of the True Qi Lock of the "Qiankun Lock Method".

One quarter of an hour...two quarters of an hour...one hour passed...two hours passed...

The more anxious Ye Ming was, the harder it was to understand this last point.

"no!"

"The most taboo thing about martial arts practice is to be impatient, and you must not be impatient! A stable state of mind, as long as the state of mind is calm, this last difficulty will never stump me!" Ye Ming exhaled a breath and forced himself to calm down.

"This should be done by injecting the true qi into the enemy's body..." Ye Ming stretched out his hand and released the true qi outward, simulating the way of using the second layer of the Qiankun Locking Method.

puff!

The true energy escaped from Ye Ming's body and hit the air.

"Not really right, it's not like this!"

"Try again!"

Over and over again, Ye Ming slowly tried.

"By the way, that's it!" About an hour, Ye Ming moved one hand and a ball of true energy was "pop". It was the same time that this ball of true energy was shot out, Ye Ming's eyes lit up and he almost cried out in a lost voice.

"That's it, that's it. The second level of the Qiankun Locking Technique, it turns out that it is used!" Ye Ming was extremely excited, "I have understood the second level of the Qiankun Locking Technique, and now I will go out of this cave secret realm!"

Thinking in his mind, Ye Ming supported the ground with one hand, jumped up, and shot seven or eight Qiankun Lock True Qi Locks toward the light curtain in front of the cave. A large amount of true Qi poured into the light curtain, and a trace of sweat also oozed out of Ye Ming's forehead.

puff!

Finally, the tenth Qiankun Locking Technique was launched, and the light curtain "puffed" and seemed to be foam, directly shattered and dissipated. With a tingling, a silver palm-sized spherical object fell to Ye Ming.

"This thing is the top-grade spiritual energy magic weapon of "Town Prison"?" Picking up the silver ball, Ye Ming glanced at it a few times, and put it into his own space ring. "This town prison is a spiritual energy weapon of spiritual energy. I can't use it now, so I won't study it for now!"

The light curtain disappeared, and Ye Ming stepped out of the cave in one step. It was already afternoon. The setting sun shone into Cuiyun Valley and shone on Ye Ming's face. There was no sunlight for more than a year, and Ye Ming narrowed his eyes and felt a little uncomfortable.

"It's already afternoon? The competition among the inner disciples should not have ended yet. Go to the Broken Sword Cliff behind the sword peak immediately!" After moving his body, Ye Ming quickly headed towards the Broken Sword Cliff.

———————

Broken Sword Cliff, the competition between the inner disciples has lasted for nearly a day. After Yun Ruoyan and Li Zizong fought, many sword-making disciples challenged each other. However, the first stone platform to the fourth stone platform of the Broken Sword Cliff, Xiao Yiran, Yun Ruoyan, Li Zizong and Zhang Aotian, have never challenged them. As for the other positions, from the fifth to the seventh, there were sword-making disciples taking turns to fight, and the fifth disciple of the last inner disciple was challenged. However, the sword-making disciple who defeated him was ultimately unable to defend his position and was challenged by other disciples...

Yun Ruoyan climbed to the second stone platform, and Zhou Xingjian also advanced to the sixth stone platform, defeating two challengers in succession.

Lin Qingxue also bravely reached the Seventh Stone Platform with the third sword power and the sixth level of Qi Refining cultivation!

It's almost dusk.

"It's almost done!"

On the stone chair below, Zhao Jianchen looked solemnly at the Broken Sword Cliff Stone Platform.

Almost all the powerful disciples of the Sword Cultivation Sect took action, and the top seven disciples of the inner sect have almost stood out. The rest are just some ranking battles. For example...

The battle between Zhang Aotian and Li Zizong, the battle between Yun Ruoyan and Xiao Yiran. Almost all the people in the Sword Forging Sect, the sect leader, the elder, and ordinary disciples present knew that these two battles were almost inevitable!

"Li Zizong!"

Just after Zhou Xingjian defeated the third challenge, Zhang Aotian suddenly spoke on the fourth stone stage.

"My goal is the top three disciples of the inner sect of the Sword Crown Sect. It's time for you and me to fight!" Zhang Aotian pulled out his long sword and pointed directly at Li Zizong of Shitai above.

"As you wish, I have been waiting for this battle for a long time!" Li Zizong's long sword also took out from the space ring, pulled out the hilt of the sword, and pointed to the ground obliquely.

"It's a pity that before defeating you, I can't defeat Ye Ming, and wash away the shame of the last time the outer disciples broke into the sword forest... This is somewhat of a regret, but Ye Ming is already in the past after all, and he is probably thrown away long ago and will not appear in my sight again. In my eyes of Zhang Aotian, there are only you, Yun Ruoyan and Xiao Yiran! Today, I will step on you first!" The low words were told from Zhang Aotian's mouth. When his figure moved, Zhang Aotian was about to jump onto the third stone platform where Li Zizong was.

"I, Ye Ming, aren't in your sight?"

And it is this moment!

It's so steep—

A cold voice suddenly came from a distance!

The voice was not loud, but it seemed like a sharp sword. It shot rapidly from a distance and arrived in front of Zhang Aotian in an instant. The sound seemed to be mixed with a powerful sword that was extremely sharp!

Zhang Aotian paused, his face changed rapidly, and he suddenly turned around, his eyes were like torches, looking in the direction of the sound.

Below, among the disciples of the Sword Forging Sect, a young man with a tall figure and a tall figure, walked towards the Broken Sword Cliff with great strides. On him, he seemed to carry a strange aura. Wherever he walked, the disciples of the Sword Forging Sect subconsciously turned their bodies and gave him a way.

"Ye...Ming?" Zhang Aotian slowly exhaled these two words.

"How could it be..." At the same time, when he saw the boy just arrived, Zhou Xingjian's face changed wildly, his eyes were horrified, and his body shook violently.
Chapter completed!
