The Dominance of Martial Arts: Starting from the Tiger Roaring Golden Bell

Chapter 237 Similar History, Coming Storm

August 20th, Longhu Ridge, martial arts arena.

The victorious Sikong Wan withdrew his gaze and looked towards the edge of the arena, where Guo Mingrui had a gloomy expression.

"This is already the tenth disciple to take your place on the stage, Guo Mingrui, how long are you going to hide?"

Hearing this, the eyes of the brothers around him were like needles, piercing Guo Mingrui, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

Now that things have come to this, hiding any longer would mean giving up the power that he had worked so hard to build.

He pursed his lips, took a long breath, and was about to speak.

Swish!
A sleeve blocked his mouth as he tried to speak.

"Hide? You're hiding from the man behind you, right?
I would like to ask you when he will fight with me on the fighting stage."

Guo Lan appeared and gave her brother a look.

Guo Mingrui immediately understood that he was no match for Sikong Wan and it was time to give up his power.

After all, I have no shortage of resources for cultivation now.

After realizing this, he no longer paid attention to the looks from the people around him and echoed his sister's words.

"Did he tease you so much that you became weak? You can't even leave the house, right?"

If it were the Sikong Wan of the past, he would have been furious at these words.

Today, Sikong Wan, relying on the mind chain of the God-Locking Art, has firmly locked away her former sentimentality.

Seeing that Guo Mingrui would not go on the arena with her, she jumped off the arena with an expressionless face, rode away on her tiger.

Looking at her departing back, Guo Mingrui looked at Guo Lan.

"How to do?"

“The Tiandeng technique is indeed worthy of its reputation. In such a short period of time, it can greatly increase her strength.

Let's disband our forces. These people are no longer useful to us.

Qin Zhiming must have been in seclusion, otherwise he would not have failed to appear at the Dragon and Tiger Meeting for two consecutive times.

Where is Rinian Cave?"

"These days, the people I sent out have been guarding there day and night, but they have not found any trace of him.

Sister, after he comes out of the customs, can you beat him?"

Guo Lan glanced at Guo Mingrui:
"Are you afraid that I will lose? He is at the Bone Refining Stage. Even if he comes out of retreat and becomes the Marrow Refining Stage, he will be at the same stage as me.

In Longhu Ridge, among the warriors of the same level, there are only a handful of people who can defeat me.

Not to mention, a marrow-training warrior who had just broken through.

Even if I lose, so what?
Winner takes all, loser for Kou.

Warriors speak with strength. If you lose, you lose. Just work hard to practice and win again.

As a warrior, losing your possessions is a minor matter, but being afraid of others and not daring to fight is a major matter."

"Sister, why don't you let me compete with Sikong Wan?"

“You have an average character, and I’m afraid that after you lose, you’ll be discouraged and dare not compete with others again.

I want you to see me fighting with Qin Zhiming before I let you fight with Sikong Wan."

At this time, Guo Lan looked around.

"From now on, Yunya Pavilion will no longer be open to you. You are on your own."

The disciples who had long been attached to the Guo siblings were horrified and begged for mercy.

He wanted to impress Guo Lan with words and distribute the pills for cultivation to them again.

Looking at their expressions, Guo Mingrui suddenly understood what his sister meant.

A warrior should control the things outside of his body, rather than be controlled by them.

Just like these people, losing their possessions is like losing their lives.

You have to know that they were all warriors who entered Longhu Ridge with their own strength, and they were the best warriors in the world.

Now, although his strength is far greater than before, his character is not as good as before.

Just asking them to go back to their previous lives where they had to work hard to obtain resources for cultivation would make them feel as if they had lost their parents.

If they were asked to compete with other disciples, they would probably be scared even before they stepped onto the fighting stage. Soon, the news that the Guo siblings had disbanded their forces spread across Longhu Ridge like the wind.

In an instant, the disciples who had been bullied by this force in the past began to seek revenge at the same time.

Those disciples who were once in a powerful force, relied on the training resources distributed by the Guo siblings before to greatly increase their strength.

At first they did not take the disciples who were seeking revenge seriously, but as the competition continued, none of these disciples, whose strength had greatly increased, emerged victorious.

They didn't understand why this happened. They were obviously much stronger than the other party, but they couldn't beat them.

After a month of competition, most of the disciples from the previous force lost to other disciples.

Only a few disciples were unwilling to fight.

However, what awaits them are the same methods they had used before to force others.

Being constantly harassed, unable to practice, and unable to obtain resources.

He could only keep dodging in the mountains and struggling to survive, until he couldn't bear it anymore and lost everything in a duel with others.

As for those victorious disciples, they usually spend a lot of time and effort to obtain resources for cultivation.

Nowadays, they cherish the hard-earned elixirs even more and practice diligently every day.

Not only that, this incident also made many disciples understand one thing.

A life of luxury and comfort will wear down one's character.

As long as the strength is not too different, mentality is the key to exerting strength and determining victory or defeat.

Otherwise, you will be like those losers who don’t even know how they lost when competing with others.

This scene was exactly what the three masters of Wuji Temple wanted to see, and it was also within their expectations.

Over hundreds or even thousands of years, many things have happened in Longhuling.

For the three dukes, history is always strikingly similar, but not a simple repetition.

They would only secretly guide and interfere in the affairs between disciples when necessary.

To avoid any accidents that would affect the cultivation of most disciples.

But today, the three of them heard something they had never heard before.

At this time, the three officials who received the order from Wuji Temple looked at each other in surprise.

"Master, this is inappropriate, isn't it? Previously, I only said that the disciples should go down the mountain for three days.
I never asked them to do this.”

"Yes, Master, what Shi Gong said is correct.

According to Taoist rules, outer disciples can only leave the mountain after all the trials are over.

The purpose is to deprive the disciples of their worldly identities and let them speak with their strength.

Now, the Taoist rules have been changed to let them go down the mountain and monitor their own families.

I am worried that some of my disciples will feel resentful because of this.”

“After three days down the mountain, we didn’t know how many variables there would be, and now there are even more variables.

Especially those disciples from noble families, who knows what they will do if they have never made a vow? "

Above the clouds, in front of the Three Dukes, there is a lifelike person formed by clouds.

This man was wearing a white robe and a white crown, and had a dignified appearance.

He smiled slightly:
“I know San Gong is troubled by this matter.

However, everything is changing, nothing remains unchanged.

Even the Wuji Temple must change with the trend.

There are some things I cannot tell you. Sangong only needs to know that not only Wuji Temple, but all major immortal sects will act this way.

This move can reveal the disciples' character in a short period of time.

Once we discover that some disciples are taking actions that violate the Dao rules because they are too concerned about worldly matters, then the temple will naturally act in accordance with the Dao rules.”

The three officials immediately understood what the master meant.

"The Immortal Sect wants to use a suitable reason to screen out disloyal disciples before the trials among all the sects?"
