Gou's Liver Experience in the World of Demons and Demons

He was about thirty years old, with a calm face and a plain grey robe.

"Bai Xin, please give me some advice."

The man saluted with his fists clasped together, his voice deep and powerful.

"Bai Xin? The one with a bye for the first game?"

Tian Kun's eyes lit up.

"It is said that he has been training outside and rarely returns to the sect."

Liu Qingshan clenched his fists.

"He is at the peak of the Underground Palace Realm and may be even stronger than Dai Hongmao."

Bai Xin didn't waste any words and directly pulled out a scarlet spiritual sword.

The moment the sword was unsheathed, the temperature of the entire arena seemed to rise a little.

"Red Flame Sword Art: Burning the Sky!"

Bai Xin's sword was as powerful as a rainbow, and the red sword energy intertwined in the air to form a fire net, covering Ling Xiao.

The pressure from the peak of the Underground Palace Realm was completely released, and the cultivators with lower cultivation levels on the sidelines retreated one after another.

"So strong!"

Liang Yu exclaimed.

"The power of this sword is close to the underground palace realm!"

Gu Sheng looked at Bai Xin's attack posture and closed his eyes silently.

He could already foresee the ending.

Sure enough, facing the overwhelming fire net, Ling Xiao simply raised his right fist, and then - blasted out!
"boom!"

With a dull sound, the fire net was easily torn apart.

Bai Xin didn't even have time to change his moves before he was hit in the chest by the aftermath of the punch.

The whole place was silent again.

"Concession."

Ling Xiao still looked calm and composed, as if he had just swatted a fly away.

Bai Xin struggled to get up, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at Ling Xiao deeply and clasped his fists.

"Thanks for showing mercy."

Dai Hongmao stood on the sidelines, the wooden fan in his hand trembling slightly.

As the strongest person in the team after Bai Xin, he wanted to show his skills in the assessment, but now...
"Do you want to come again?"

Liu Qingshan asked in a low voice.

Dai Hongmao took a deep breath.

"Go! Even if we lose, we have to lose beautifully!"

He leaped onto the stage and the wooden fan opened with a swish.

"Fellow Daoist Ling Xiao, please teach me!"

"It's Qianye Feihua who caught Senior Brother!"

A disciple recognized this move.

Dai Hongmao poured all his spiritual power into the wooden fan, and the fan instantly expanded to a size of three meters. Countless leaf-shaped spiritual blades whizzed out and shot towards Lingxiao.

Ling Xiao put his hands behind his back and moved among the leaves, but not a single leaf could touch the corner of his clothes.

"The speed is good."

Ling Xiao commented.

"pity."

He suddenly stopped and tapped the air with his right index finger.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, all the leaves exploded at the same time, and Dai Hongmao flew backwards with the fan and fell heavily on the edge of the ring.

"I surrender"

Dai Hongmao said bitterly, struggling to get up and salute.

Ling Xiao won three games in a row!

According to the rules, this means that Gu Sheng and his team have three more places, and the top six can enter the Qinghe Holy Land!

"Great!"

Liang Yu jumped up excitedly.

"We can all enter the Holy Land!"

"Senior Brother Ling Xiao is too strong!"

The other disciples also cheered and looked at Ling Xiao with admiration in their eyes.

Even those cultivators who were ranked lower couldn't help but cheer for Ling Xiao.

In this world where the strong are respected, strength is the best pass.

Gu Sheng quietly retreated to the edge of the crowd, his eyes inadvertently sweeping over the holy land disciples in the high place.

Wang Chenyu was whispering with a few people around him with his head down, a sinister smile on his face.

"Something's wrong" Gu Sheng's heart sank.

"What are these holy land disciples planning?"

He decided to keep a low profile in the upcoming melee and let Ling Xiao attract everyone's attention.

On the fighting arena of Qinghe Holy Land, Ling Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering in the wind.

His eyes were as fast as lightning as he scanned the people below the stage, with a smile on his lips.

"Who else?"

Ling Xiao's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

The cultivators below the stage looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one dared to respond.

Just now, four people came up to challenge, but without exception, they were knocked off the stage by Ling Xiao with one move.

The overwhelming momentum was like a tiger pouncing on a flock of sheep, no one could stop it.

"I come!"

A burly man jumped onto the stage. He was Zhao Tieshan, a well-known master of physical training.

Ling Xiao didn't even lift his eyelids.

"please."

Zhao Tieshan roared angrily, his whole body glowed bronze, and his fists smashed into Ling Xiao's face like hammers.

This blow contained a tremendous force, and even the air made an explosion.

"too slow."

Ling Xiao sighed softly, and in a flash he was already behind Zhao Tieshan, and slapped him lightly on the back.

"boom!"

Zhao Tieshan flew out of the ring and fell heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The audience was silent.

"the fifth."

Ling Xiao counted calmly and turned his gaze to the only two people left on the stage - Tian Kun and Liu Qingshan.

The two men looked extremely ugly.

They were originally the hot candidates for this selection, but now they were having difficulty breathing under the pressure of Ling Xiao's aura.

Tian Kun gritted his teeth.

"Forget it, I'll go first!"

He leaped onto the stage, with a long sword shining with cold light in his hand.

The blade vibrated, making a clear dragon roar.

"Tian Family's Broken Wave Sword, please teach me!"

Tian Kun said in a deep voice, his spiritual energy surging throughout his body, obviously he had used all his strength.

Ling Xiao finally looked him in the eye and nodded.

"Finally, there's a decent one."

Before he finished his words, Tian Kun had turned into a shadow, and the sword light slashed towards Ling Xiao's neck like a streak of light.

The knife was as fast as lightning. Everyone in the audience only saw a flash before their eyes, and the blade was already three inches away from Ling Xiao's throat.

"Qiang!"

The sound of metal clashing resounded throughout the venue.

Ling Xiao used only two fingers to hold the powerful knife, without moving an inch.

Tian Kun's pupils suddenly shrank, and before he could change his moves, he was hit in the chest by a seemingly light palm strike.

"puff--"

Tian Kun spat out a mouthful of blood, flew backwards, and fell heavily on the edge of the ring.

"one move."

Ling Xiao withdrew his hand and shook his head.

"next."

Liu Qingshan's face turned pale, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot.

When he jumped onto the ring, he had a pair of black short spears in his hands.

"Liu family's twin dragon halberds, please——"

"No need to register your number."

Ling Xiao interrupted him.

"it's the same."

Liu Qingshan was furious, and he crossed his two halberds to form a cross, and his spiritual power surged like a tide.

This strike contained all his life's skills, and even the ground of the arena was cracked by the wind from the halberd.

Ling Xiao finally moved.

He clenched his right fist and threw out a simple straight punch.

"boom!"

The fists and spears collided, and a wave of air exploded.

Liu Qingshan only felt an irresistible force coming, the double halberds flew out of his hands, and the whole person was thrown backwards, hitting the protective formation at the edge of the ring and sliding down.

"sixth."

Ling Xiao shook his wrist and turned to leave the stage.

"Wait a minute!"

The examiner suddenly spoke up. He was an old man with white hair and beard, with a complicated look in his eyes. "Ling Xiao, you have won six games in a row. According to the rules, you can take six places. But..."

He looked at Tian Kun and Liu Qingshan who were lying on the ground with pity in his eyes.

"How about giving them a chance?"

Ling Xiao paused, turned back and raised his eyebrows.

"Oh?"

The examiner coughed lightly.

"I have decided to temporarily change the rules. The last spot will be decided by a duel between Tian Kun and Liu Qingshan. Can you help me?"

There was an uproar in the audience.

Those monks who had been eliminated looked even more pale, especially Jiang Dashan and other strong men in the top three of the list, whose fists were clenched so hard that they made a rattling sound.

Bai Xin smiled bitterly and muttered to himself.

"I'm 29 now, if I wait another three years I'll be over the age limit"

He looked at the ring, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Ling Xiao looked at the examiner's serious expression, glanced at the people below the stage, and suddenly laughed.

"Well, let's just give the Holy Land some face."

He jumped off the stage in a dashing manner and walked towards Gu Sheng who had been waiting for a long time.

"What a pity. I wanted to take up all the places."

Ling Xiao transmitted the message, with a hint of regret in his tone.

Gu Sheng grinned and patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't be too arrogant, or you'll get into trouble in the Holy Land."

"What are you afraid of?"

Ling Xiao didn't care.

"First, stay here and get some training resources."

The two smiled at each other, attracting the attention of several nearby holy land disciples.

One of them whispered.

"Brother Wang, if Ling Xiao really enters the sect, I'm afraid that in the future..."

The young man called Senior Brother Wang had a handsome face and smiled mysteriously when he heard this.

"I have my own arrangements."

He looked deeply at the ring, where Tian Kun and Liu Qingshan had stood up again and confronted each other.

"Thank you for your help, examiner!"

Tian Kun and Liu Qingshan saluted the old man together, and the fire of hope rekindled in their eyes.

The examiner nodded.

"let's start."

Tian Kun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and held the long sword horizontally.

"Liu Qingshan, today only one of us can stand!"

"Exactly what I want!"

Liu Qingshan picked up the double halberds, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

The two men jumped up at the same time, and the flashes of swords and spears intertwined in an instant.

Unlike Ling Xiao's one-sided fight, this battle became intense right from the start.

"Clang clang clang!"

The sound of metal clashing was like a torrential rain. Tian Kun's swordsmanship was powerful and each strike had the power to split mountains and break peaks.

Liu Qingshan's twin halberds were like dragons emerging from the sea, capable of both attack and defense. In the blink of an eye, ten moves had passed, and both of them had several wounds on their bodies, but they fought more bravely.

"happy!"

Tian Kun laughed loudly, and the momentum of his sword suddenly changed, from hard to soft, and the blade wrapped around Liu Qingshan's double halberds like flowing water.

Liu Qingshan was caught off guard, and his right halberd was deflected by the force of the sword, exposing his chest.

Tian Kun seized the opportunity, gathered all his spiritual power in his left fist, and hit the opponent's abdomen hard.

"boom!"

Amidst the dull sound of impact, Liu Qingshan spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back a few steps, but he gritted his teeth to steady his body, crossing his two halberds to protect his chest.

"It's not over yet!"

He roared angrily, and the double halberds suddenly flew out of his hands and headed straight for Tian Kun.

Tian Kun was shocked and hastily blocked with his sword.

With two "clang clang" sounds, the halberd blade flew past his cheek, leaving two bloody marks.

Without waiting for him to catch his breath, Liu Qingshan rushed forward and started punching and kicking him.

"These two people"

Liang Yu, who was watching the game from the audience, came close to Gu Sheng.

"Who do you think will win?"

Gu Sheng touched his chin.

"It's a fifty-fifty split. Let's see who collapses first."

On the ring, Tian Kun and Liu Qingshan were both at the end of their strength, but neither of them was willing to admit defeat.

Strong winds blew up dust and sand, and thousands of rounds of fierce fighting left the entire field covered with cracks.

A light blue aura condensed on Tian Kun's fist, and a sneer of confidence appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Liu Qingshan, your journey ends here!"

Tian Kun roared, and his body moved like lightning, rushing straight to the opponent's open abdomen.

Liu Qingshan staggered back with a look of panic on his face, but from an angle that Tian Kun couldn't see, there was a cold gleam in his eyes.

His muscles bulged slightly beneath his ragged clothes, and his skin was an abnormally dark golden color.

"boom--!"

The dull sound of fists hitting flesh shook the entire place, followed by a deafening explosion.

Smoke and dust rose into the sky, covering the entire arena.

In the spectator seats, Liang Yu and others had already stood up and were ready to cheer.

"Liu Qingshan is finished!"

Liang Yu patted the railing excitedly.

"Tian Kun's punch is enough to shatter black iron!"

Gu Sheng, however, remained seated, tapping the armrest lightly with his fingers.

"not necessarily."

"What's wrong?"

Liang Yu turned his head and glared.

"Gu Sheng, you don't think Liu Qingshan can still--"

Before he finished his words, a stream of blood suddenly spurted out from the smoke and dust, followed by a heavy crash.

A strong wind suddenly blew away the thick fog, revealing a scene that shocked everyone -

Tian Kun fell on his back on the edge of the ring, his chest sunken and blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.

Although Liu Qingshan's clothes were torn and his body was covered with wounds, he stood firmly, and his body emanated a heart-pounding physical fluctuation.

"This is impossible!"

Liang Yu cried out in surprise.

Liu Qingshan slowly walked down the stage, leaving shallow footprints on the bluestone floor with every step.

When passing by Gu Sheng, he nodded slightly, with a knowing smile on his face.

"Gu Sheng has already seen it?"

Liang Yu asked in disbelief.

Gu Sheng’s eyes were deep.

"The muscle texture of a body cultivator is different from that of an ordinary person. Liu Qingshan deliberately showed weakness to lure Tian Kun to attack his abdomen with all his strength - that is the hardest part of his training."

There was an uproar in the spectator stands.

Those disciples who were originally glad that they had easily obtained the places now looked at Liu Qingshan with awe in their eyes.

“It’s hidden deep enough.”

Someone sighed in a low voice.

At this time, a chubby figure squeezed over. It was Wang Yun, who was ranked eighth.

He approached Ling Xiao with a big smile on his face.

"Brother Ling, thanks to your guidance, I was able to get the chance to participate! I will definitely serve you wholeheartedly in the future!"

Ling Xiao patted Wang Yun with satisfaction, enjoying the envious looks from those around him.

Just as the atmosphere eased a little, the examiner walked onto the stage with a loud voice.

"The second round of the third round has officially ended! This year, Qinghe Holy Land is recruiting disciples for the competition—"

"Wait!"

A cold shout interrupted the announcement.

The crowd automatically parted, and a young man dressed in the attire of a disciple from the Qinghe Holy Land strode over, the jade pendant on his waist jingling.

When Ling Xiao saw this person, his face suddenly changed and he clenched his fists unconsciously.

"Wang Chenyu!"

Ling Xiao gritted his teeth.

Wang Chenyu didn't even look at Ling Xiao. He walked straight to the examiner and saluted with his fists.

"Uncle Master, this year's competition was too much of a joke. Especially in the second round of the formation test, someone was obviously cheating, but no one was held accountable."

The examiner frowned.

"Chen Yu, what do you mean?"

Wang Chenyu turned around and pointed his finger at Gu Sheng.

"This person's attainments in formations are mediocre, but he won first place in the second round. In the third round, he avoided the main points and never showed his true strength! I suspect he used some kind of cheating method!"

There was an uproar.

Gu Sheng remained calm, but his eyes gradually grew colder.

"You are so slanderous!"

Liang Yu was the first to jump out.

"Gu Sheng's strength is obvious to all!"

Wang Chenyu sneered. (End of this chapter)
