Chapter 423
"Xu Yang cleansed his marrow so quickly; he's at least the eighth of the Ten Elites, but he only gave him seventh," Huoyun said with a smile.
"It was indeed a mistake, but it can't be considered a mistake."
Li Songhe said: "The initial version of the Ten Elites ranking was indeed decided after I carefully considered it. After Kong Yu died, I used the Young Marquis to replace him.
Later, Wen Hao and Fang Yu died, and I didn't observe carefully, choosing Xu Yang and Su Zhe for the list at random.
Both of them had similar talent, but I thought Su Zhe was a disciple of the Su family with many resources, so I ranked him ahead of Xu Yang. Who would have thought that this trash had such a family background and was not as good as someone from a farming family."
Du Qingpu laughed: "Old Ghost Ding, do you regret it? Do you still dare to say that this Xu Yang has no possibility of walking out of the Profound Heaven Sect?"
Ding Yuan frowned, not responding to Du Qingpu, but looking at Li Songhe, saying: "This Xu Yang is not a C-minus innate talent? With this innate talent, even if his comprehension is good, the marrow cleansing bottleneck should take at least a year or more to grind. Why did he cleanse his marrow so quickly?"
Ordinary people didn't notice the problem, but when the Ding family recruited Xu Yang, it was he who personally led it, so he knew more about Xu Yang's situation than Du Qingpu.
"Just a C-minus innate talent?"
Hearing his words, Elder Huoyun and Du Qingpu also realized something was wrong.
Li Songhe nodded: "This Ten Elites list was ranked by this old man. Have you heard of it being rewritten in previous years?"
Several people shook their heads.
The Ten Elites list was very authoritative and almost never had deviations, except for Lu Ren last year and Xu Yang this year.
Li Songhe said: "A few days ago, I discovered Xu Yang had cleansed his marrow. I specifically checked and went to check his and Lu Ren's files again, only to find that the one who felt their innate talent wasn't the master of the martial arts hall, but an old master found from the folk by a small family.
That old guy, I'm afraid he felt their innate talent wrong."
One was an accident, but two were like this, and the one who felt the bones was the same person; there must have been a problem when feeling the bones.
When he ranked the list, he could only refer to these things and couldn't personally feel the disciples' bones, so naturally, he made mistakes.
"Look, that's my brother. Isn't he handsome? Do you still dare to say he doesn't deserve to be on the Ten Elites list?"
Xu Qing stood with several female disciples, looking at Xu Yang with full admiration.
"Xiao Qing, it was our fault. We will treat you to dinner tonight. Remember to call Senior Brother Xu; we will personally apologize to him face to face."
A beautiful-looking woman said, her beautiful eyes also staring at the figure on the ring.
"Want to be my sister-in-law? You are still a bit short. After the grand competition ends, he will be an inner sect disciple. Do you think it's possible?" Xu Qing sneered.
She saw through the thoughts of these friends at a glance.
"Marrow Cleansing! How could he cleanse his marrow..."
Qiao Yong's face was livid, in disbelief.
How could he not understand now that he lost to Xu Yang so simply because Xu Yang had already cleansed his marrow, and he had been fighting against a Marrow Cleansing martial artist all along.
"It's over, implicated by this idiot Qiao Yong."
Beside him, Ma Yong and others also had pale faces. They had actually followed Qiao Yong and offended a Marrow Cleansing martial artist.
Xu Yang had also invited them to dinner, but what they returned to Xu Yang was mocking Xu Yang with Qiao Yong and drawing a line.
"Xu Yang wins, Su Zhe loses!"
On the ring, the deacon announced the result of the duel.
Su Zhe kept his head down, not daring to look at anyone at all. He knew that in everyone's eyes at this moment, he was a clown, a megalomaniac.
He spoke loudly, but it required Xu Yang to restrain his strength for him to walk off the ring unscathed. How is this not a joke?
"Clang!"
A sword suddenly inserted in front of him, the sword body trembling.
It was Xu Yang who threw his sword off the ring, inserting it in front of them.
Xu Yang looked down at Su Zhe: "Remember to talk less big in the future. If you want to defeat me in ten moves, go back to your mother's womb and practice for a few more years before coming out."
Since he had made a move against Su Zhe today and made Su Zhe lose his reputation, it was inevitable that he and the Su family would be at odds.
Since that was the case, he naturally wouldn't take the Su family's anger anymore.
As soon as these words came out, the ashamed and angry Su Zhe could no longer hold on.
Only hearing a "pfft" sound, Su Zhe opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, being angered to the point of vomiting blood, his body swaying.
No matter how fiercely the people around mocked him, he could endure it, but Xu Yang's sentence "go back to your mother's womb and practice for a few more years before coming out" made his already nearly collapsing mind unable to bear it anymore, and a mouthful of blood directly spat out.
"So ruthless!"
"Don't get him angered to death!"
"How arrogant he was before, how miserable he is now. Who told him to be idle and want to step on Xu Yang? Stepping on a nail, he deserves it."
……
The sentence "go back to your mother's womb and practice for a few more years before coming out" made many people's mouths twitch.
Even they found it harsh to hear, so one could imagine the lethality of this sentence.
"Xu Yang, you are looking for death!"
Su Man emitted a scream, running quickly toward Su Zhe, her face full of resentment. Xu Yang was going to form a death feud with her Su family.
Xu Yang stared at Su Man without speaking.
Everything was caused by this woman. Without Su Man, nothing would have happened.
Toward this woman, he had long since raised the heart to kill.
"Where did this crazy woman come from? Drive her out for me."
On the high platform, Li Songhe's face sank, and he immediately shouted angrily.
Profound Heaven Sect disciples fighting, an outsider here interrupting and threatening the winner.
If everyone were like this, who would dare to duel with the descendants of great families in the future?
Su Zhe and Su Man's faces changed greatly at the same time.
Behind Li Songhe, Liu Jinghe stood up and jumped off the high platform, walking to Su Man, saying expressionlessly: "Miss Su, please leave. The Profound Heaven Sect does not welcome you."
Su Man didn't dare to speak at all. Even if she had no brains, she knew she couldn't stay.
Li Songhe, who spoke, even her father couldn't afford to provoke, let alone her, so she had to leave with a pale face.
Xu Yang also walked off the ring, giving up the ring.
"Junior Brother Xu, well done." Sun Tao walked over, giving a thumbs up.
Zhang Yong had a look of resentment: "You knew Xu Yang had cleansed his marrow?"
He had thought he was at the same level as Xu Yang before and wanted to duel with Xu Yang. It turned out he had already cleansed his marrow.
Sun Tao said: "I guessed it. Lu Ren has cleansed his marrow; would Junior Brother Xu be worse than him?"
These words left Zhang Yong speechless, and Lu Ren beside him also had nothing to say.
"Brother Xu is truly astonishing."
Zhou Zhichao, who was somewhat familiar with Xu Yang, walked over, smiling and cupping his hands.
When he dared to find Xu Yang to join forces, his strength was naturally not bad, and he also made it into the top twenty.
"Congratulations to Brother Xu for cleansing his marrow!"
"Congratulations to Brother Xu for entering the hall of martial arts!"
……
People who were familiar and not familiar all came to congratulate Xu Yang, and even Han Feng, Xiong Kun, and these people walked over.
Being able to cleanse his marrow when the three-year period expired, even if there was a gap in the Ten Elites list, who could go further in the future, not many people knew.
Not far away, Qin Ze and Liu Qian both wanted to come over and talk to him, but after hesitating for a while, they didn't come over, only enviously watching Xu Yang surrounded by a group of people.
"You really surprised me!"
Lu Ren also walked over, his whole body full of fighting spirit.
No matter how many experts and geniuses were on the Ten Elites list, the one he most wanted to fight was still Xu Yang.
Xu Yang laughed: "It's been so long, haven't you gotten used to it yet?"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Ren's smile immediately froze on his face.
Regardless of cultivation or bickering, he seemed to have never won against Xu Yang.
Lu Ren snorted: "You are still as cautious as ever, not exposing your true cultivation until the critical moment."
Han Feng and others nodded. They broke through to Marrow Cleansing and announced it to everyone.
Only Xu Yang hid it for two days in the grand competition before revealing his Marrow Cleansing cultivation. He was indeed cautious enough.
Soon, the first round of duels ended. After resting for half an hour, the resurrection duels began, which was the duel for the top fifteen.
Zhang Yong lost again and couldn't make it into the top fifteen, as did Zhou Zhichao, who also didn't make it into the top fifteen.
Next was the duel for the top ten!
Xu Yang went on stage to draw lots and drew a Yi-7 number. When he went on stage, his opponent wasn't a genius on the Ten Elites list, just a cultivation of Perfection Gang Qi.
Seeing it was him, this person directly conceded, and he successfully made it into the top ten. ===== CHAPTER 424 =====
