Practice starts with skill points.

Chapter 402: Seeing the Blue Sky

Ye Yu looked at Zhong Lin with a dim gaze. She had not expected that there would be such great ambitions here.

An eighth-grade alchemist doesn’t like it?
"Do you know that in the entire sect, the number of eighth-grade alchemists can be counted on one hand? Although Senior Sister Yinghe is only a true disciple, even some elders or saints dare not neglect Senior Sister Yinghe in the slightest." Ye Yu said speechlessly.

Zhong Lin remained silent.

Ye Yu sighed and waved his hand, saying, "It's up to you! Just be careful and don't forget that you are a member of the Juying Society."

"Yes, Zhong Linmo dare not forget."

"Go down!"

Zhong Lin bowed and turned to leave Tingyu Pavilion.

Watching Zhong Lin's departing figure, Ye Yu suddenly said to the void, "Senior Sister Yingju, what do you think of this person?"

There was another fluctuation in the space, like ripples in the water, and the next moment, a beautiful figure appeared in the same place.

The woman had crystal-clear skin and bones, thin eyebrows and charming eyes. She was wearing a light white palace dress. Her elegance was mixed with a sense of otherworldly temperament. Her three thousand black hair was tied into a simple bun, making her look heroic.

The person who came was Yingju, the real master of Juying Peak and the true disciple of Tianjian Holy Land.

"He's a good candidate, and he's courageous." Yingju said lightly.

"I think he is extremely audacious." Ye Yu said with a little dissatisfaction.

"Oh! How about we make a bet?"

Yingju glanced at Yeyu, her eyes slightly narrowed, like a teasing fox.

"Forget it, I won't do it."

Ye Yu subconsciously took a step back and quickly waved his hands, his face full of vigilance, as if he had thought of something bad.

Yingju also curled her lips, and a hint of regret flashed in her eyes.

"Since he is willing to participate in the outer disciple competition, let him do it and let him see what reality is. However, since he is a member of the Juying Society, he cannot be bullied. I heard that someone has already started to intervene." Yingju said.

Ye Yu straightened his expression and nodded, "Indeed, the rewards for the competitions have become increasingly generous in recent years, and many people have entertained inappropriate thoughts."

"A true disciple took action?"

Yingju frowned slightly, and a cold light flashed across her face.

"That's not the case, but the person who did it might have a close connection with those true disciples."

Ying Ju pondered for a moment after hearing this, and after a long while, she said leisurely: "In that case, don't worry about it. The road of martial arts is difficult, like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge. Only those with extraordinary talent and luck can cross it. You must cross the demons by yourself, otherwise how can you see the blue sky?"

A trace of worry flashed across Ye Yu's face, but in the end he nodded.

……

"Zhong Lin."

"Junior Brother Zhong."

As soon as I returned to Liuxuan Pavilion, two familiar figures appeared in my sight. They were Chu Yu and Tang Yimei.

The few of them could be considered close friends. Ever since they had gone to the Earth Rift Canyon to look for medicine last time, the two of them had often come to ask for medicine over the past year or so. Through them, Zhong Lin had made a small fortune and obtained a lot of resources for cultivation.

So Zhong Lin was not surprised by their arrival.

"Senior Sister Tang, Chu Yu, you are here."

Zhong Lin said with a smile. "Zhong Lin, I heard from Shu Lan that Senior Sister Ye Yu is looking for you. What's going on?"

The heroic Chu Yu asked directly and carefreely without any scruples.

"Nothing much. Senior Sister Yeyu asked me about participating in the Outer Disciple Competition."

"Are you participating too?"

Zhong Lin looked at Chu Yu and asked curiously, "So, you've signed up too?"

"Of course. Not only me, but also Senior Sister Tang, Sang Xue, Chang Sun Yue, Mu Yan, Yin Hong and the others are all participating. How can we miss such a grand event? I've been looking forward to my Overlord Spear for a long time."

Zhong Lin turned his gaze to Tang Yimei with a look of surprise on his face.

He could understand Chu Yu's participation in the outer sect competition. Before she joined the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, this female general had led troops into battle. Even her natal weapon was the Overlord Spear, and she was naturally warlike.

But Tang Yimei is different. She prefers quietness to movement and rarely participates in such fighting and killing.

Tang Yimei also noticed the confusion in Zhong Lin's eyes and said with a smile, "The Outer Disciple Competition is a grand event held every ten years in the sect. Competing with fellow disciples can improve one's cultivation and gain experience in various combat techniques. It is also not as dangerous as killing monsters outside. Although I don't like fighting, martial arts practice is full of frustrations, so I naturally can't miss it."

"Not only that! I heard that the rewards for the Outer Disciple Competition have been getting more generous in recent years. It's said that this time there will be Yin-Yang Fusion Pills and Mystical Weapons as rewards. Such treasures, everyone wants to fight for them."

Chu Yu said excitedly.

"Yin Yang Fusion Spirit Pill, a mysterious weapon?"

Zhong Lin was also shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect the reward to be so generous.

There is no need to talk about the Xuanqi, which is a powerful weapon that even warriors in the Xuandan realm may not possess. It is unknown when the Donghuang Bell that has been nurtured in his dantian can be upgraded to a Xuanqi. If he has a Xuanqi in his hand, his strength will definitely increase greatly.

As for the Yin-Yang Rong Ling Pill, this is an eighth-grade pill and a supreme treasure medicine specifically for the Xuan Dan realm. After swallowing it, you can use its medicinal power to push the Xuan Dan to the perfect state in one fell swoop, and condense a trace of Yin-Yang spirituality. At that time, as long as you find the right Yin Sha Qi, you can break through the Yin-Yang realm in one fell swoop.

"The rewards for the Outer Disciple Competition are so generous?"

"It wasn't like this before. It started from the last session. It is said that the major holy places in the ten regions of the Eastern Wilderness discussed holding a martial arts conference. Therefore, the sect increased its support for resources for outer disciples, hoping to go further and win face at the martial arts conference." Tang Yimei said.

"Martial arts conference?"

Zhong Lin found that he was too ignorant, and now a martial arts conference suddenly popped up.

"I don't know the details, it was Senior Sister Yeyu who told me. Unless I can achieve a good score in this outer sect competition, knowing it will only cause more trouble."

"Too."

Zhong Lin nodded to show his understanding. If one's strength and position did not reach a certain level, he would not be qualified to understand.

"Senior Sister Tang, do you think Senior Sister Lou Yue can get first place this time?"

Chu Yu interrupted their conversation and asked excitedly.

"Hard to say."

Tang Yimei said solemnly, "Although Senior Sister Lou Yue has already achieved the perfection of Xuan Dan and even the third-grade Dan, it is said that there are also several talented disciples in this outer disciple competition who are not inferior to Senior Sister Lou Yue in any way."

"How is it possible? Senior Sister Lou Yue has a clear mind for swordsmanship and her talent in swordsmanship is unmatched. She has even achieved the third level of elixir and has boundless power. Who can be her match?" Chu Yu said loudly.

When he heard the name Lou Yue, Zhong Lin's eyes flashed with a divine light.

He had only heard of this person but had never seen her in person. She was the eldest senior sister of the outer sect of the Juying Society. She had achieved the perfect level of Xuandan cultivation and was born with a brilliant swordsmanship and unparalleled combat power.
