Chapter 28 Martial Arts Conference (8)

According to the hierarchy of Zixiao Heavenly Palace, the Tianshi is located at the top of the pyramid. There are now three Tianshi in Zixiao Heavenly Palace, namely the Emperor Li Longji Imperially Sealed Heavenly Master, named Ge Yun Tianshi, Zhang Xuanbao Tianshi and Li Xuande Tianshi. They are the Shangshang, the Shangshang and the current Tianshi Palace Master.

When they reach the level of the Heavenly Master, they no longer care about the mundane affairs of the Tao Palace. What they are considering is how to practice and achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven?

So the abbot who is responsible for the daily affairs of Zixiao Heavenly Palace is called Baiyun Zhenren. He actually holds the highest real power of Zixiao Heavenly Palace, and the three heavenly masters are just spiritual leaders.

Zhenren Baiyun is over 60 years old, but he is well maintained. He looks only in his early forties and has beautiful eyes. He is currently the oldest real person in Zixiao Heavenly Palace. Even Zhenren Wu Miao, the abbot of Xuanhu Palace, is also his apprentice.

Baiyun Zhenren wore a wide-sleeved Taoist robe made of purple phoenix Shu brocade, a golden crown on his head, and sat cross-legged on a couch with white jade inlaid with red sandalwood. He looked very high in aura. More than a dozen Zixiao real people surrounded him in a circle.

At this time, Mu Zhenren took his two disciples into the hall. Wu Miao Zhenren, who was standing next to Baiyun Zhenren, whispered: "Master, the three of them are the wild paths of Qingxu Temple. The young Taoist priest walking at the back is Guo Song, who forced the disciples of Xuanhu Palace to death."

A trace of coldness flashed in the eyes of Master Baiyun. The news of Zhang Qinghu's unwillingness to be humiliated and committed suicide was circulating in the Zixiao system, arousing the public anger of thousands of Taoist priests of the Zixiao system. Even Master Baiyun was alarmed. He wanted to see how arrogant this young wild Taoist was?

Baiyun Zhenren was very cunning, and he said lightly: "Don't do any small moves. Compare according to the rules, so that the outsiders of the palace can convince them if they lose."

A sense of disappointment arose in the heart of the true man Wu Miao. Guo Song's martial arts skills were very high. He could not do anything to him in the preliminary and semi-finals. He used Zhang Qinghu's death to aroused the general anger of the Zixiao Taoist priests. He hoped that the Zixiao master would teach Guo Song a lesson in the finals. Even if he could not kill him, he would suffer from lifelong disability.

But the statement of Master Bai Yun made him feel like a basin of cold water was poured on his head. He said with a frustration: "Disciple understand!"

Master Bai Yun glanced at Master Wu Miao. Seeing his face with an unconcealed depression, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly. This disciple's scheming was still too shallow and he couldn't hold back at all. How could he take his own mantle in the future?

He coughed and said slowly: "There are already all here, let's start!"

A crisp sound of cloud boards sounded, and the Taoist priests bowed to salute Laojun, and the lottery ceremony began.

Eighty Taoist priests lined up in the lobby, with young and strong people aged 27 or 28, and young men aged 14 or 15, with different heights and ages.

But the finals will not consider the adult group and the junior group, and everyone is mixed together.

The lottery draw was drawn by Bai Yun himself. He took out two lists from the paper box and handed them to Wen Miao Zhenren behind him, and was announced on the spot by Wen Miao Zhenren.

"The first pair, He Lingzhen of the Red Ape Palace, faces Qingyang Guanma Cave."

Gan Lei lowered his voice to Guo Song, "Although this Ma Dongzi is a little smaller in age, He Lingzhen may not be his opponent."

Guo Song nodded. He could have the word "zi" in his Taoist name and was very skilled in martial arts. He could fully understand Gan Lei's explanation.

At this time, he found that Wu Miao Zhenren was staring at him fiercely, and he knew that this person was extremely narrow-minded and he would revenge his grudges, and he had to be careful of this person.

"Senior brother, more than a dozen of their real people are wearing purple robes. What is the difference between them and the real people of their master?"

Mu Zhenren turned his head and smiled faintly, "Their real people were enthroned by the court and enjoyed the treatment of a fourth-rank official. There were thirteen people in total. The three heavenly masters also enjoyed the treatment of a third-rank official, but the real people of Ye Dao were self-proclaimed and just a sage."

"So that's it, where are the three heavenly masters?"

Mu Zhenren pointed to the Heavenly Palace, "We are all thinking about how to ascend to the immortal!"

At this time, Baiyun Zhenren pulled out two more notes, and Baiyun Zhenren announced loudly: "Sun Lingzi of Xuanwu Palace faces Guo Song of Qingxu Temple."

"Senior brother, how is Sun Lingzi's martial arts?" Guo Song asked Gan Lei in a low voice.

"He can rank among the top ten in the Zixiao system, has a relatively arrogant personality, and always thinks that I am the best in the world, but his martial arts are indeed very good."

Guo Song frowned slightly, "I seem to have heard of this name somewhere?"

Gan Lei showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, and he hesitated for a while: "Six years ago, I fought with him in Kongtong Town. He fought for dozens of rounds, and he did not decide the outcome. The sword I used was not good at that time, and the left shoulder was pierced by this bastard with a sword. Did you forget it?"

Guo Song suddenly remembered, but it seemed that he hadn't fought fiercely for dozens of rounds! The senior brother's tenth sword was pierced by the opponent's shoulder with a sword.

However, Gan Lei's face was gloomy, and Guo Song decided to give him some face, after all, Zhang Mingchun was standing next to him!

………………

In the first round of lottery results, the four wild Taoists were extremely dangerous. Guo Song drew Sun Lingzi, the fifth-ranked Lingzi, and Zhang Mingchun from Jingle Palace met Yang Xuanqing from the bullfighting Palace in the first round. I don’t know if it was the Zixiao Heavenly Palace deliberately arranged it, but he was really unlucky, so the two wild Taoists killed each other.

Gan Lei was lucky and got Li Dongxiao from the Red Ape Palace. Although this person is good at being, his martial arts is just a second-rate character.

But the problem is that Gan Lei himself is also a second-rate character, so whether he can be of average level depends on each other's performance on the spot.

"Dong——" The bronze bell of the bell tower rang.

On the Yin and Yangtai terrace for the competition, two pairs of Taoist priests stood opposite each other, holding long swords in their hands, waiting for the announcement to begin.

There were 1,500 Taoist priests sitting neatly in the Zixiao system on the north side of Yinyang Taipei, including more than 100 female Taoist priests sent by Huang Heguan. They did not participate in the competition, and they only chose dual-cultural Taoist couples.

Only Taoist priests from Zixiao Tiangong are qualified to choose for dual cultivation, but Taoist priests entering Zixiao Tiangong are basically over thirty or forty years old. On the first day of the fifth and tenth lunar days each, five Taoist priests from Zixiao Tiangong are qualified to be dual cultivation.

Then the female Taoist priests from Huang Heguan chose a dual-cultural partner. In this regard, ladies are preferred, but the range of choices is too small, and the female Taoist priests can only pick tall people from the shorts.

However, this year is a bit special. This year's martial arts meeting has been waiting for eight years. In order to motivate the Zixiao Taoist priests, Baiyun Zhenren made a decision. The Zixiao Taoist priest who entered the top three can choose a Taoist nun as a dual cultivation partner in Huanghe Temple.

This time it was a man who chose women. Several young masters were so excited that they couldn't sleep all night. They had already had the Taoist nun they liked.

The Taoist nuns were also secretly happy. After all, they were all young Taoist priests under the age of thirty, and they were no longer those middle-aged Taoist priests with a deep breath.

But such a good thing has never anything to do with the wild Tao. If young wild Taoists want to marry, they can only return to secular life, or become the master of the Grand View and have some economic foundation, so they can also marry an ordinary woman to the Taoist temple and become the master's wife.

At this time, the three hundred wild Taoist priests who were invited to observe were sitting in the south, and Mu Zhenren also sat in the audience, sitting with Huoli Zhenren of Jingle Palace.

"The final of the martial arts meeting begins!"

Taoist Master Baiyun announced the start of the competition, and a crisp cloud board sounded.

The two pairs of Taoist priests waved their swords at the same time, rubbed their bodies upwards, and started a fierce battle.

Before this, Guo Song looked down on the Taoist priests of Kongtong Mountain, and always felt that they were bullying others by relying on their power, and they could only be supported by the court to show their might in Kongtong Mountain.

But today he saw the final of the Martial Arts Association. He found that he really underestimated the Taoist priests of the Zixiao system. They had skillful moves and fierce sword skills. Even fellow Taoists were merciless and fought with their lives.

Gan Lei whispered to Guo Song: "The martial arts association not only concerns the honor of the Taoist temple, but also whether they can personally be attracted by the Zixiao Heavenly Palace."

"Isn't it a priest who is qualified to enter the Zixiao Heavenly Palace?"

"It's not necessarily true that the top three of the martial arts association can enter the Zixiao Heavenly Palace and be promoted directly to the alchemist."

Guo Song nodded and smiled, "Even if you can't enter the Zixiao Heavenly Palace, it is still beneficial to perform well in front of the abbot of the Taoist Palace."

"That's the reason!"

Gan Lei's eyes finally fell on the first person on the left side of the second row of the Zixia Taoist priests. The man was also looking at him coldly. The two of them looked like swords, hoping to kill the other party on the spot.

Guo Song followed the senior brother's gaze and saw the young Taoist priest who was as tall as a bamboo pole. This unique figure made Guo Song recognize him at a glance. He was Lei Lingzi, the senior brother's love rival, and he was known as the number one master in the new generation of Kongtong Mountain.

Gan Lei gritted his teeth with hatred and said, "This dog day publicly announced in the Red Ape Palace yesterday that he would enter the top three and marry Li Wenyu!"

Guo Song said lightly: "The premise is that he must enter the top three."

Gan Lei was a little discouraged, "Now no one in the Zixiao series is his opponent."
