Chapter 413

"Who said Xu Yang didn't dare to sign up? Stand out and let me see."

"He is a Ten Elites genius after all; how could he have no courage at all."

"Coming doesn't necessarily mean signing up; maybe he is just here to watch the fun."

"Xu Yang, are you going to sign up for the competition? If so, I will give you this position; I have been queuing since I was a child."

……

Some people were afraid that Xu Yang would run away, so they took the initiative to give him a position.

"Many thanks, I will queue myself!"

Xu Yang smiled, found a queue with Sun Tao and Zhang Yong, and stood at the very end.

"Good, you still have some courage, not in vain I have been thinking about you," Lu Ren's fighting spirit rose all of a sudden.

He had full confidence in the top three, but what he wanted most was to defeat Xu Yang publicly and wash away the shame.

Every time someone mentioned Xu Yang, they would say that Xu Yang defeated him in the martial arts examination. He had long had enough.

He fought many battles before meeting Xu Yang and wanted to maintain his physical strength, so he admitted defeat. He didn't expect that after a few years, it became the capital for Xu Yang to become famous.

"I will make you reveal your original shape!" Su Zhe looked over provocatively.

Defeating Xu Yang and destroying Xu Yang's reputation was just the first step. What he wanted was to kill Xu Yang completely to vent his anger for his sister Su Man.

He was ninth in the Ten Elites, ranked above Xu Yang, and was also a young master of the Su family. He had practiced family cultivation methods since he was a child. He couldn't beat Chen Yu, Xie Zhan, and those people, but to beat Xu Yang, he was confident that ten moves would be enough.

"Xu Yang, you looked down on me before. If we meet on the ring, I will make you regret not pleasing me," Qiao Yong was also emitting fighting spirit.

Gang Qi Minor Success cultivation, plus two Major Success martial arts—this was his confidence.

"Are you going to find him now? Or wait until the outer sect competition ends?" Qin Ze transmitted to Liu Qian.

Xu Yang came to participate in the competition, which meant he wanted to enter the inner sect. With their strength, they were still qualified to join forces with Xu Yang.

Xu Yang might refuse, but Liu Xiao, who had already worshipped into the inner sect, had already spoken that if the mission difficulty was high, he would make a move for Liu Qian's sake.

With Liu Xiao as a backer, Xu Yang couldn't possibly refuse.

"Find him now. After all, he is a Ten Elites genius; there should be many people who want to join forces with him," Liu Qian said.

Persistently looking for Xu Yang was naturally not because of guilt and wanting to take care of Xu Yang, but because they valued Xu Yang's Ten Elites talent.

With a Ten Elites genius joining, they would be more sure of completing the assessment mission. Although Liu Xiao agreed to make a move, inner sect disciples were not idle, and they couldn't make a move whenever they wanted.

And favors were something that would be used less once used. If they could not use them, they would try not to, even if Liu Xiao was her big brother, but they were not born of the same mother.

"This is another Denglong!"

Xu Yang felt that everyone was emitting fighting spirit, and his heart became a bit more serious about this outer sect competition.

For the disciples of this batch, this outer sect competition would be an opportunity to change their destiny. If they couldn't stand out in this competition, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven to worship into the inner sect in the future, unless they reached Marrow Cleansing.

However, when the three-year term expires, those who can't even get into the top twenty of the outer sect competition basically have no possibility of Marrow Cleansing, unless they have other opportunities.

"I thought you would continue to shrink?"

Soon it was Xu Yang's turn to register. It happened to be Sun Ke, who had a good relationship, and the other party teased him.

Xu Yang smiled: "The disciple is not shrinking; it's just that the cultivation was not enough last year, and participating in the competition wouldn't get a good ranking, so going on stage would be of no use."

He rarely explained a sentence, one was to give Sun Ke face, and the second was to establish a persona.

Those inner sect elders and peak masters didn't like people who were afraid of war, so he had to have a reason to explain.

This was what Gao Lin reminded him of, so he attached some importance to it and didn't want to win the top three without any elder willing to accept him as a disciple.

"So it was because he wasn't sure of getting a good ranking that he didn't participate, not because he was afraid of war."

The people around were suddenly enlightened, and their gazes toward Xu Yang were different. There were also many people among them who weren't sure last year, so they didn't participate, not because they were afraid of war.

It turned out that Xu Yang was the same as them.

"Junior Brother Xu's lies are really coming out of his mouth!" Sun Tao listened and complained in his heart.

What not sure, just being cautious, not wanting to show off, so he dragged it until this year.

Sun Ke's eyes lit up: "In that case, you are sure of getting a good ranking this year? Top twenty or top ten?"

Xu Yang naturally wouldn't say he was sure of the top three, and said casually: "The disciple doesn't know either, just do my best."

Sun Ke shook his head: "It's not doing your best; at worst, you have to hit the top ten. You are one of the Ten Elites after all. If you can't even hit the top ten, I'm afraid no elder will look at you. You enjoy the benefits brought by fame, and you also have to accept the backlash brought by it."

Apparently, he also didn't think much of Xu Yang, so he reminded him that he must hit the top ten.

Soon the registration continued. After he retreated, Sun Tao went up to register, and his gaze couldn't help but glance at the panel.

【Mountain-Crushing Bear Sutra · Marrow Cleansing Chapter (2999/3000)】

"After the outer sect competition ends, break through."

Half a month ago, he reached the threshold of Marrow Cleansing Minor Success, but worried that exposing the Marrow Cleansing Minor Success cultivation in the outer sect competition would bring trouble, he didn't immediately impact the Marrow Cleansing Minor Success realm.

As for the Jin Gang Qi, it must be exposed this time, but there was no way, unless he was willing to enter the inner sect by completing the assessment mission.

"Junior Brother Xu, let's go."

Soon Sun Tao and Zhang Yong also finished registering, and the three walked out.

Just after leaving the Mission Hall, they saw two figures waiting on the side of the road.

"Brother Xu!" Liu Qian and Qin Ze cupped their hands.

"What are you two doing?"

Xu Yang asked suspiciously. He and these two had long had no friendship. If they met outside, they would kill each other. He didn't know what these two were looking for him for.

Liu Qian said: "I wonder if Brother Xu still remembers what you said when we formed the alliance?"

Xu Yang hadn't spoken yet, but Sun Tao said coldly: "You two have the face to mention the alliance? Didn't you already unilaterally kick my Junior Brother Xu out of the alliance?

Why? Now that you are not doing well, you think of my Junior Brother Xu again?"

Both were full of embarrassment. At this moment, they really didn't count for much to the Ten Elites genius.

Qin Ze said: "We are indeed not doing well, but our cultivation is also Gang Qi Major Success, and our cultivation hasn't fallen behind Xu Yang much.

Brother Xu, we agreed to complete the assessment together in three years. Do you still remember this promise?"

Xu Yang nodded: "I remember, but the alliance has dissolved. Is the promise still valid?"

Liu Qian said: "But you always need someone to complete the assessment mission together. Brother Qin and my cultivation, although not Marrow Cleansing, are also close to perfection. Joining forces together is better than fighting alone.

If the mission difficulty is too high, my big brother will also make a move to help."

Having a big brother who is an inner sect disciple was her confidence.

Xu Yang nodded: "What you said makes sense, but why should I join forces with you two who have betrayed me, instead of finding Senior Brother Sun and Zhang Yong?"

Qin Ze said in a deep voice: "Xu Yang, don't be impulsive. We didn't do it kindly at the beginning, but now the most important thing is to worship into the inner sect. Compared with the big event of worshipping into the inner sect, other things don't count."

Liu Qian said: "If Brother Sun and Brother Zhang are willing, it would be better for the five of us to join forces."

"No interest!" Zhang Yong and Sun Tao snorted coldly together.

They had seen too many betrayals and found it difficult to trust outsiders.

"I also have no interest in joining forces with you. Being betrayed once by people like you who have no credibility is enough."

Xu Yang said, walking away with Sun Tao and Zhang Yong. Not to mention that he could reach the top three, even if he couldn't, he wouldn't choose Liu Qian and Qin Ze.

"He refused."

Qin Ze's face was livid. He couldn't figure out how Xu Yang could refuse the alliance endorsed by an inner sect disciple, just for that little thing at the beginning?

"Impulsive, I don't think he can achieve great things."

……

August 12th, the outer sect martial arts arena, four rings built with special materials had been built, and a high platform was also built next to them.

A group of outer sect disciples ate breakfast early in the canteen and rushed here.

Today, the annual outer sect competition officially started, and even Li Chuyang, Du Chuan, and Jiang Fan, who hadn't appeared for a long time, appeared.

Some inner sect disciples who had nothing to do also walked out of the peak to watch.

There were also people from some big families in Qingyang City who were invited to enter the Profound Heaven Sect to watch the battle. Those with high status sat on the high platform in front.

Those with ordinary status sat on the viewing platform on both sides.

As for the outer sect disciples, this thing is just cattle and horses, so there are no seats, and they all stand for a day.

Yuan Yi swept his gaze through the crowd and said to his father Yuan Gang beside him in a low voice: "Didn't see Xu Yang."

Yuan Gang shook his head: "No need to worry about him. Look carefully. If the geniuses on the Ten Elites list appear, you go to contact them. If the other party is interested, I will come forward to talk in detail. The relationship with Elder Liyang must not be broken."

The Ten Elites list he mentioned was naturally the Ten Elites list of the new batch of disciples. The Ten Elites disciples of the previous batch, except for Xu Yang, they had contacted others, but they all failed.

Now they planned to take this opportunity to contact the Ten Elites geniuses of the new batch.

"Who is Xu Yang?"

In another direction, Su Man swept her gaze, wanting to find Xu Yang.

But after looking for a while, she remembered that she had only heard Xu Yang's name and hadn't seen Xu Yang. ===== CHAPTER 414 =====
