As for its specific function, there is no need to say more.

Regarding this, the four from Dazhu Peak were the most satisfied...

541. The Number One in Refining Essence into Qi: Paimon

Strictly speaking, there was actually no suspense in this Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament.

Right now, it has not yet reached the stage where the heroes of the seven Shushan peaks stand together and victory is hard to determine.

At present, Shushan's Tongtian Peak, Longshou Peak, and Xiaozhu Peak are the three strongest of the seven peaks.

Although the four peaks of Dazhu Peak should theoretically be no weaker than the four major side-branch peaks of the Tongtian three,

these four peaks require too much time to get started.

Dazhu Peak's method of pill furnaces and cauldrons, Fenghui Peak's art of refining and controlling artifacts, Chaoyang Peak's Dao of arrays and cages, and Luoxia Peak's ability of the Ten Thousand Beasts Strange Sound.

These all require time to cultivate.

During the peak period, every disciple participating in the Shushan Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament would be at the peak of Refining Essence into Qi for the outer sect.

The inner sect would all be at the peak of Refining Qi into Spirit.

The core disciples would all be at the peak of Refining Spirit into Void.

With the same cultivation level, they were all the strongest talents nurtured by their respective seven peaks.

During the peak period, even the strongest Tongtian Peak of Shushan would not dare to say it could easily handle the other seven Shushan peaks.

Because of this, the seven peaks were independent yet interdependent, which constituted the strongest Shushan.

But now, after all, these four side-branch peaks of Shushan are starting very slowly.

They are far from being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the other three peaks.

Therefore, there was no suspense in the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament.

Tongtian Peak, from outer sect disciples to inner sect disciples, and finally to core disciples,

all undoubtedly swept the first place.

Afterwards, Longshou Peak and Xiaozhu Peak had their own wins and losses, but when facing the subsequent four peaks, neither Miss Shenhe nor Xiao had lost again.

Suspense did not exist from the very beginning.

In the Shushan of the past, after such a Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament, the heads of the seven peaks would all be punished.

Having such a large gap in strength is very unfavorable for the sect.

But now...

It is, after all, the first Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament since Shushan was rebuilt.

In any case, starting from nothing is always worth praising.

What's more, two of the four peaks do not even have heads.

For now, let's prioritize the rewards.

The Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament ended in just one morning.

Overall, it was still a bit sloppy, but regardless, everyone is still full of hope for the future.

Jiang Yan did not say anything to dampen the mood, although in his heart he had decided to supplement the strength of the four peaks of Dazhu Peak.

But for the moment, he still celebrated with everyone.

Supplementing the foundation of the four peaks of Dazhu Peak is not something that can be done in a short time.

The key point lies in the upcoming Disciple Acceptance Ceremony.

As for the final ranking of the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament...

Tongtian Peak, Longshou Peak, Xiaozhu Peak, Dazhu Peak, Fenghui Peak, Chaoyang Peak, Luoxia Peak...

Taking the last place, Bai He felt a little regretful, but he was not surprised.

After all, the situation at Luoxia Peak is plain for all to see.

On the other hand, Miss Ying, who has now become the acting head of Fenghui Peak, is a bit dissatisfied.

Third to last...

This result disappointed her greatly.

But she couldn't blame Immortal Liuyun and the others, after all...

She had only been the head for a few days and wasn't familiar with them yet.

Furthermore, when she wasn't there before, no one was guiding the situation at Fenghui Peak.

The Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament is just a prelude to the Shushan Grand Competition; the real grand event for Shushan is the Shushan Comprehensive Grand Competition, which starts in the afternoon and lasts until the date of the Disciple Acceptance Ceremony.

This is the true Shushan ranking tournament.

This competition lasted for nearly a month.

It was only when the Disciple Acceptance Ceremony began that the ranking tournament preliminarily ended.

First place, without a doubt, is Miss Keqing.

After all, the Shushan ranking tournament does not prohibit divine bodies from participating.

Thus, with the cultivation level of the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, Miss Keqing staged a crushing victory for everyone...

Whether it was other divine bodies in the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, or Miss Ganyu and Miss Shenhe in the middle stage of Refining Qi into Spirit with countless trump cards,

they were all easily suppressed by Miss Keqing.

Only then did everyone realize how many good things Jiang Yan had given Miss Keqing.

Not to mention the various divine fires, Miss Keqing actually possessed genuine high-grade treasures.

Added to the various immortal arts she had mastered, she had even mastered a portion of the Seventy-Two Transformations.

Even when Miss Ganyu faced Miss Keqing and brought out her own treasures, she was still taken down by Miss Keqing after a bit of effort.

Second place was not Miss Shenhe or Miss Ganyu, those experts in the middle stage of Refining Qi into Spirit.

Instead, it was Miss Ying, who was in the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, whose true Divine Sword Lightning Control True Art was invincible.

She was just slightly inferior to Miss Keqing.

After the third place, it was quite in line with everyone's psychological expectations.

Third place Miss Ganyu, fourth place Miss Shenhe, fifth place Xiao...

Sixth Lady Ningguang, seventh Lady Lisa, eighth Lady Yelan, ninth Mr. Tartaglia...

Miss Kiana, who was highly anticipated, didn't even make it into the top ten.

This made Miss Kiana, who possessed a divine body, feel a bit aggrieved.

It wasn't that she didn't practice hard, it was just that...

Once the battle started, the opponent would throw out a dozen magic treasures to suppress her in minutes.

She was like Ip Man fighting World War II with bare hands; she had the skills to slay dragons, but the opponent wouldn't give her a chance to perform.

A fair duel?

Magic treasures are also a part of one's own strength.

Miss Kiana was a bit sad, but she accepted the result.

It was just some magic treasures; there would definitely be opportunities in the future.

The last place among the disciples of Refining Qi into Spirit was Miss Himeko.

Regarding this, Miss Himeko was not surprised; after all, compared to other senior brothers and sisters, her cultivation time was the shortest.

As for the first place among the inner sect disciples of Refining Essence into Qi, it was quite shocking.

It was Paimon...

542. Paimon: I Have Always Convinced People with Force

To be honest, before the competition, everyone thought that the number one person in Refining Essence into Qi would either be Miss Furina, who mastered the Kingly Way techniques, or Kaedehara Kazuha, whose sword skills had reached the pinnacle.

Of course, if they were placing bets, everyone would still bet on Miss Furina without hesitation.

That Kingly Way law of hers was simply too outrageous.

As for Paimon...

Although she had a divine body, no one ever thought she would be very strong.

This little one had always been following Miss Ying, completely lacking the demeanor of a divine body prodigy.

She was just like a tag-along.

Regarding her Star Body, everyone had seen the records, which only stated that a perfected Star Body possessed the courage of ten thousand men.

But no one thought that Paimon, having just awakened her Star Body and only being at the stage of Refining Essence into Qi, could fully display the power of the Star Body.
