Chapter 163 Striving to Become a Powerful Senior Brother
The cream-colored kitten and the silver-white kitten rolled around on the ground, like two chubby mochi balls, captivating everyone present.
A group of spirit cats are kept on Spirit Beast Peak. When they go to Spirit Beast Peak to accept missions, they will occasionally see the little spirit cats fighting.
However, they had never seen a Nine-Spirit Cat disguised as an ordinary cat fight with an ancient spirit sword that had transformed into a cat before.
"Not bad, not a single move is superfluous." The Second Elder watched the two kittens waving their paws at each other, almost turning into afterimages, and a smile crept into his eyes.
Fifth Elder: "..."
He never imagined things would turn out this way; the little civet he secretly raised had actually found so many owners for itself...
Not only does it secretly seek out its human to feed it, but the little Indian cat also has a special bloodline.
The Fifth Elder's feelings right now can only be described in one word.
Complex JPG.
The Fifth Elder pondered how to settle the little spirit cat in the future, but Da Zhuang had his own ideas and completely ignored the cat owner with complicated feelings.
It intended to show this strange cat in front of it its power so that it could continue to reign supreme on the mountain of the Southern Spirit Sect.
Unfortunately, it lost the fight and became withdrawn.
It is said that the people of the Southern Spirit Sect did not see it for three whole days.
In the end, it was the Fifth Elder who found the chubby little cat in a corner of his mountain peak and took it back.
From then on, Lan Yue would see this light yellow kitten sneaking over every few days to fight with Yin Xue.
Every time Dazhuang lost, it was a terrible defeat, but the more it lost, the more excited it became, as if it were on drugs, and it was impossible to drag it away.
If it weren't for the Fifth Elder watching over it and taking it home every day, Lingyue Peak would probably have become the little spirit cat's den long ago.
Lan Yue and the other kids had no thoughts about this; in fact, they even wanted to laugh.
The days passed as the group watched Dazhuang and Yinxue fight, studied the Central Holy Land's inheritance, and cultivated themselves.
Lingyue Peak enjoys a peaceful and serene atmosphere, yet the entire sect is extremely busy.
In various parts of the Southern Region, he dealt with the newly emerging Demon Abyss Rifts, summoned master craftsmen to study the demonic artifacts with concealed auras obtained from the Forgotten Dust Sect, and consulted with sects throughout the Four Regions to warn them of the demon race's plot. Naturally, he also needed to handle the aftermath of the Azure Stone Sect's affairs...
When Lan Yue received another chicken leg as a bribe from the Nine-Spirit Cat and was asked to fight Yin Xue together, her master's familiar figure reappeared.
"What level of cultivation?" Guangji landed on a sky-blue longsword and asked his disciple as soon as he landed.
"What level of cultivation?" Lan Yue was watching the two kittens fight, her mind was elsewhere, when she was suddenly asked by her master. Her little face was blank for a moment before she realized what was going on.
Finding that everyone else was busy and not paying attention to her, Lan Yue quietly transmitted her voice to her master: "Master, I have reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment."
Guangji, who was on the other end of the line, paused for a moment and nodded slightly: "Not bad, keep up the good work."
"You all need to get ready. The grand competition between the North and South regions is about to be held, and we'll have to go to the Northern Ridge Holy Land to participate."
Guangji has been repairing the cracks in various places recently. Upon learning about the inter-domain competition, he immediately rushed over.
"The Grand Competition of the North and South Regions?" Lan Yue asked in a strange tone.
According to the original text, wasn't the Southern Region Grand Competition supposed to be next? Why is the Northern Region being added as well?
Logically, the process should begin with a competition at the Southern Spirit Sect to select the best candidates, followed by a competition in the Southern Region. After that, the competition should select the best talents, and then the Four Regions Grand Competition should take place six months later.
The main characters first shone during the Southern Region competition, and then shone brightly in the Four Regions Grand Competition.
Has the Southern Region competition been completely wiped out by Butterfly?
Seeing the confusion on his disciple's face, Guangji explained, "Recently, we've uncovered a lot of things. To avoid being targeted by the demons during the competition, the sects of Nanyue and the sects of the Northern Region have agreed to hold a joint competition, and the selected individuals will then be sent to participate in the Four Regions Grand Competition."
"I see." Lan Yue nodded.
She thought it made perfect sense; now that the demons' tricks had been discovered, the Southern and Northern Regions would definitely have to take action.
It would be good to combine the competitions of the two regions, so that more sects would be watching together, and more people would be there to help if something went wrong.
"The Nanling Sect will hold a competition in ten days. During this time, you should all cultivate diligently, especially Lan Yue, you should take it even more seriously."
Although Guangji has been running around outside all this time, he has been able to get information from other elders and knows that this guy is always gossiping.
Guangji guessed that the points the little guy earned from eating melons might not only be used to study those formations, but could even be used to improve his cultivation.
But no matter how fast your cultivation level increases, it's useless if your movement techniques and martial arts skills don't improve accordingly.
It's like a child wielding a long knife, who knows when he might accidentally cut himself.
"I found a Qingying Step Technique in the secret realm outside. It was left behind by an ancient cultivator. You should practice it diligently."
Guangji casually tossed her a footwork manual, then turned and left on his azure longsword.
Lan Yue, who remained behind, held the book and sighed.
It seems that my dream of simply lying down and enjoying the gossip is still a long way off.
She cannot live a peaceful life until the main characters deal with the invading demons.
Although she can now lie down and not ask about anything, she can still spend her days gossiping and not care about anything.
But watching the main characters relax with her, Lan Yue felt a pang of conscience.
She's been enjoying the gossip quite a bit lately, so now she should focus on practicing the secret techniques her master gave her!
So Lan Yue once again pulled her friends together and started practicing martial arts diligently every morning.
While her master was still at the sect, she took the initiative to send her friends over for her master to practice with.
So during those 10 days, everyone was "tortured" by Guangji to the point of wishing for death.
Guangji was different from the other elders. Elders like Duanmu and the Fifth Elder would only spar with their disciples until they had reached a point of no return.
Focus on teaching your disciples, allowing them to understand it themselves, just like a gentle letter, letting them absorb it gradually.
Guangji, on the other hand, was like a raging storm. He would go all out in any sparring match with any disciple and would never hold back.
Even though he deliberately suppressed his cultivation, Lan Yue and her friends were still beaten so badly by the opponent that they cried out in pain. After a whole day, they lay stiffly on the ground like chickens that had been scalded with boiling water, as if their souls had already passed away.
Looking at the little guy lying all over the ground, Guangji even doubted himself.
Was he really that ruthless? How come they're all half-dead?
After Guangji left with his long sword, Lanyue, who was lying on the ground, secretly opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
That's absolutely terrifying, absolutely terrifying!
Her master's sword was like lightning; she had absolutely no power to resist.
They were clearly at the same cultivation level, so why was she beaten so badly?
Lan Yue began to doubt herself. Could it be that the cultivation level boosted by the system was all just water?
[System: No, don't overthink it. This is a system product, of course it's reliable and trustworthy. You're just too inexperienced!]
Lan Yue: "..."
A critical hit!
Alright, say nothing more, let's continue training! Let's keep practicing and sparring!
She refused to believe it. They were clearly of equal strength, so how could there be such a huge difference between them!
Not only Lan Yue, but all the other friends were also questioning their lives and were all feeling discouraged.
"I'm so bad at cooking, I'm so bad at cooking..." Li Bai muttered to himself.
He suddenly remembered the scene of sparring with his Uncle Guangji just now.
Before he could even swing his longsword, he was kicked away by his Uncle Guangji.
Before he could react, he was thrown to the ground in a split. When he looked up again, he had already been grabbed by the collar and thrown out, his body tracing the same arc as the spirit sword that had been kicked away.
"I'm going to work hard!" He jumped up with his longsword in his arms and ran to the stone forest behind Lingyue Peak, planning to practice swordsmanship all night and never sleep again!
What need is there for cultivators to sleep? How could they possibly sleep?
"Junior Sister Lanyue, Junior Sister Yunxi, come practice swordsmanship with me! Let's hone our weapons together and amaze everyone!"
Li Bai's figure had already disappeared, but he felt it was inappropriate for him to run away alone.
And being so lonely in the middle of the night, it suddenly appeared out of nowhere and dragged away all the other friends lying on the ground.
"Wu Tianyu, look, your Gu worms are useless against true experts. You were the one who suffered the most injuries today. From now on, you still need to practice martial arts!"
"Junior Brother Yuan Shuo, you have bruises on your face and neck. I know your weapon crafting skills are very impressive, and you can now craft mid-grade spiritual weapons. But during the Four Domains Competition, no matter how powerful your crafted spiritual weapons are, the most important thing is practical combat experience!"
"Let's go and practice together to improve. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing if we, who are so highly regarded by so many elders, couldn't even get into the Four Regions Grand Competition!"
Before long, Li Bai pulled the group of friends who were still lying on the ground panting to the stone forest behind them.
We've been forced into involution again.
The other friends: "..."
Thank you!
