Chapter 355

Lu Yang on the ring and Meng Jingzhou under the ring fell into deep thought at the same time.

The eldest senior sister said that the Qingzhou government invited Profound Heaven Sect disciples to participate in the grand ceremony, and the standard for the grand ceremony was cultivators under eighteen. The two of them wanted to communicate with the younger generation and signed up for the competition. The logic was rigorous, and not a single flaw could be picked out.

But why were Lan Ting, Bai Ming, and an unknown person sitting on the stage?

Were they all over eighteen?

The people under the stage heard that Lu Yang was from the Profound Heaven Sect and gasped.

They didn't expect that even people from the five great immortal sects would participate in this grand ceremony. They had never heard of such a thing before.

"But who is Lu Yang? Have you heard of him?" People were confused. The Profound Heaven Sect had a great reputation, but few people knew Lu Yang.

"Never heard of him. I've only heard of his opponent, Feng He."

"Me too. I heard that this Feng He entered the Dao by listening to music, drew Qi into his body, and stepped onto the immortal path. After Foundation Establishment, he obtained a broken ancient zither at an auction, which seemed to be an item held by some great power. Robbers became greedy and wanted to snatch it. That early Foundation Establishment stage and two late Qi Condensation stage robbers were instead captured by Feng He using the power of the ancient zither."

Lu Yang's name was not as famous as the popular seeded players.

The experiences of popular seeded players were all pushed by the sect behind them, building fame for their own disciples, promoting their own disciples going down the mountain to eliminate harm for the people, killing mountain bandits, evil ghosts, and demons, or being the first place in the sect grand competition, having no rivals in the same realm, etc. At worst, it was a miserable life experience, parents both dead, life path full of difficulties, overcoming thousands of obstacles to cultivate... In short, however eye-catching, that's how they promoted.

There were also Lan Ting, Bai Ming, Yan Tianzhi, and others. When they did sect missions, their acts of eliminating evil were not few. Gentry, town mayors, and prefects all had to be polite when they saw them, fearing they would use the immortal sect's law enforcement power. Their deeds were also spread among the people, and their fame was even greater than the popular seeded players.

Looking at Lu Yang, he infiltrated the Decayed Sect during the Foundation Establishment stage, killed the branch leader of the Yanjiang branch who was a part-time prefect, then pitted the Decayed Sect's deputy leader to death in the Profound Heaven Sect, and finally directly wiped out the Decayed Sect, which had a history of 14,000 years.

During the Jin Dan stage, he impersonated an ancient genius, formed the Heavenly Court Sect, deceived the Nine Nether Sect into temporarily giving up the idea of killing, and started a barbecue shop.

These things needed to be kept secret, not to mention that even if they were said, no one would believe them.

"So it's a fellow Daoist from the Profound Heaven Sect. Let's fight!" Feng He was full of confidence, revealing a hearty smile, and took out an ancient zither with a complete appearance from his storage ring, which flickered in the sun, caused by the golden zither strings.

His master had asked someone to appraise it; this ancient zither was a relic of some Spirit Transformation stage, and it had been repaired by 70%. Although it couldn't exert its full power like in the hands of a Spirit Transformation stage, this level of magic tool, even if a trace was activated, was difficult to match in the same realm.

Feng He indeed had the capital to be proud. Lu Yang had more than a dozen junior brothers and sisters who were in the same generation as Lu Yang and were under eighteen.

They had also just reached Foundation Establishment, and those with fast speed might be at the mid Foundation Establishment stage.

Feng He's cultivation talent could be seen.

Of course, Lu Yang's junior brothers and sisters were in a free-range state, while Feng He was carefully cultivated by the sect behind him, so they were not completely comparable.

Facing a peer, the other party was so full of confidence, Lu Yang didn't take it lightly and used the Invincible Pill.

Soon the Invincible Pill gave the result.

"Fight as you please."

Clang—

The ancient zither sound like a golden bell rang, the sound like a dragon coiling and a tiger crouching, the golden faint light began to shake, and it emitted a strong sound wave sweeping toward Lu Yang. In an instant, the ancient zither's music was like a white snake drawing a precise arc in the air, the sound wave carrying a scorching aura and power, evil energy overflowing.

Feng He took the lead, pouring magic power into the ancient zither, gaining the upper hand with the first sound, strongly occupying the combat initiative.

Regardless of whether Lu Yang resisted this attack head-on or dodged, he had calculated how to deal with the next step.

Combat is about being full of calculations!

"Sound wave manifestation! Have you learned this usage just after Foundation Establishment?" An extraordinary cultivator exclaimed. Many cultivators who studied music spent ten or twenty years to practice this usage, but it was mastered by Feng He, a junior.

"It is said that Feng He used this method to defeat the veteran early Foundation Establishment stage robbers!"

"At that time, the ancient zither was still broken. Now that it has been successfully repaired, the power will only be stronger!"

"Using the trump card right from the start!"

"Can Lu Yang of the Profound Heaven Sect withstand this move?"

Facing the sound wave manifestation, Lu Yang didn't slack off in the slightest, going all out. He fanned his right hand downward fiercely, directly fanning away the evil sound wave.

He took a step forward, stretched out his index finger, and swung out an invisible sword Qi. Feng He couldn't react to this move, and the magic tool protected its master, actively blocking in front of Feng He.

The sword Qi was sharp and heavy, hitting the ancient zither, the aftermath impacting Feng He's internal organs, and Feng He fell out of the ring holding the ancient zither.

The cultivators under the stage were quiet for a moment, then erupted into whispers that made people's scalps numb.

"Did you see that move just now? Is it sword Qi? It's my first time seeing sword Qi!"

"With one slap, he fanned away the sound wave, and with one move, he defeated Feng He. This Lu Yang is so strong!"

"What realm is he exactly?!"

Lan Ting on the judges' table didn't speak for a long time.

When she received the Governor's commission, she thought this matter was quite simple, at most a small fight at the Foundation Establishment stage, and commenting on the pros and cons was not difficult.

Now this scene was something she hadn't expected.

How to say it, praise Lu Yang for defeating the seeded player Feng He with Jin Dan cultivation?

Can't say it.

Or praise Feng He's sound wave attack for showing his talent in music, and he will definitely become a great talent in the future.

But the sound wave that looked very powerful was fanned away by Lu Yang with one slap.

She turned her head to look at Bai Ming and Yan Tianzhi. Bai Ming was silent, as if he were temporarily blind and couldn't see the situation on the ring. Yan Tianzhi opened his mouth and slowly spat out a "Good" word.

Good? Good what? Is it praising that Lu Yang's sword Qi was displayed very exquisitely, not hurting Feng He, but knocking Feng He out of the field, the power controlled to the peak.

Just when Lan Ting was puzzled, she heard Yan Tianzhi spit out three more words: "... Shameless."

Lan Ting: "..."

It seems that these two people cannot be counted on.

She let out a long breath and racked her brains to comment: "Just now, the sound wave attack of the contestant Feng He was unexpected, worthy of the title of music genius. Even if other seeded players could block it, they would be seriously injured and fall into fatigue."

"Unfortunately, this time contestant Feng He met contestant Lu Yang. Contestant Lu Yang is a sword cultivator, obsessed with the sword Dao, single-minded, only pursuing the supreme sword technique. This invisible sword Qi of his contains the universe, which is enough to show his attainments in the sword Dao!"

"Of course, the above is not the key factor for contestant Lu Yang's victory. The most critical point is that contestant Lu Yang is at the Jin Dan stage."

The second update is around 11 o'clock.
