As for the sword-fighting arena in the martial arts field, it was made of the extremely rare Dragon Blue Stone in the outside world. Even the masters at the peak of their powers could not leave any marks on the Dragon Blue Stone.

This is also the reason why the Sword Arena is rarely repaired.

The vast majority of disciples are below the peak of the Grandmaster Realm. Most of the disciples with Saint Realm strength will go out to gain experience on their own. Even if they are still in the sect, most of them will not participate in the sect competition.

Just like a senior brother in the back mountain.

I heard that senior brother hasn't come out for fifty years.

In history, there has been no case of the Sword Arena being destroyed on a large scale, except for one time when a genius from the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect made a breakthrough in the middle of a battle and destroyed most of the Sword Arena.

That genius later became the ninth leader of Xiaoyao Xianmen.

"I don't know who will draw the Saint in the first round. Whoever draws it will be unlucky."

"If the eldest brother draws the Saint, that would be unlucky."

"Apart from the Saintess, anyone who draws the Big Brother is also lucky."

"If you ask me, the Saint Girl and the Senior Brother should be sent to the quarterfinals, otherwise it would be too bullying for the others."

When the elders heard these words, they wanted to laugh. Everyone knew that there could be no manipulation in the drawing of lots.

There is no such thing as the Saint Lady and the Senior Brother being drawn in the first round.

"Hey!"

Just as everyone was talking, a clear whistle was heard in the sky.

The disciples subconsciously raised their heads forty-five degrees and looked at the beautiful figure in the sky, but had to squint because of the strong sunlight.

That beautiful figure was Yu Qianrou.

In the past, Yu Qianrou would not attend the sect competition in person, and the deputy leader would do it on her behalf.

Because Yu Qianrou has been in seclusion, wanting to become an immortal, she has no time to take care of the affairs of the sect.

It usually takes many years to use one's own thoughts to deal with some things, and it takes more than ten years or even decades to truly come out of the Xiaoyao Lock.

A few weeks ago, few disciples had seen the master.

After the master came out of seclusion, he basically went to teach the Saint Girl and Xu Chen, and he rarely saw other people.

But still better than it was a few weeks ago.

At least the leader has walked out of the Xiaoyao Lock and appeared in front of everyone.

The sword stopped and the man fell.

Yu Qianrou stood on the huge sword-fighting arena with a radius of over three hundred feet and said with a smile, "I think my disciples are not stupid. They should know the rules of the arena competition. I won't explain the rules in detail. Let's go straight to the drawing of lots."

When these words were spoken, many disciples were stunned.

what happened?

Isn't the process over?

In previous years, the sect competitions would first require an introduction to the procedures and rules, as well as some polite words. Just those polite words would take about half an hour.

This time they actually started drawing lots right away?

He has to be the leader!

In fact, just like what Yu Qianrou said, most disciples know the rules and procedures, and the rules are similar no matter which sect.

After all, this is not a trial, but a real head-on confrontation without any special rules.

The disciples who admit defeat, are knocked unconscious or are kicked out of the ring will be eliminated.

So those processes and rules are not important.

However, every sect wants to make this ceremony solemn and dignified, especially the three major sects.

Many disciples found it hard to imagine what Yu Qianrou would do.

Before people could react, in an instant, the wind rose and the clouds surged, and the stars in the sky seemed to fall into this object, emitting a dazzling light.

Streams of light appeared, like shooting stars falling in the night sky.

Countless magic patterns and branding formations were carved, and divine runes appeared in the air, each of which was shining with golden patterns.

All the divine talismans were like long swords, scattered in every corner of the main sword-discussing platform with Yu Qianrou as the center.

"The disciples who are called will come up to the stage and draw lots."

Yu Qianrou said calmly under countless shocked gazes.

All the disciples were shocked to the extreme when they saw this scene.

Gorgeous and powerful.

These are four words that are imprinted in their minds.

They will probably never forget this scene in their entire lives.

So gorgeous, so elegant.

"The first one is of course my direct disciple, Zhao Chengfeng!"

Yu Qianrou was the first to call Xu Chen up, her pretty face filled with a sweet smile that was no less sweet than the spring breeze.

Many people were quite surprised when they saw this. The leader who killed people without blinking an eye would actually give such a sweet smile to Xu Chen.

Did they see it wrong?

The master was too kind to this disciple who couldn't beat the fifth seat.

They had previously thought that the sect leader would be very disappointed after Xu Chen lost to Gong Xiangyun, but who knew that the sect leader didn't care at all. It was so abnormal.

When Xu Chen heard his name, he had no choice but to step forward and draw the lot.

He randomly picked one, and then saw a golden glow on the talisman, with gilded text appearing.

Ji Yongyuan.

Xu Chen originally thought that the drawing of lots was to draw a number and then match it, but he didn't expect that his opponent would be revealed directly.

Ji Yongyuan is the sixth seat in the sect, and Gong Xiangyun is next.

There are a total of 32 disciples participating in the competition, and Xu Chen's draw can be said to be quite bad.

However, it was still good for Xu Chen. At least he did not draw the so-called senior brother and the saint girl as the disciples in the audience said.

"The first battle is between Zhao Chengfeng and Ji Yongyuan."

Yu Qianrou announced the opponents of the first match without even looking at the lot Xu Chen drew.

There was an uproar.

No one expected that the battle for the top ten seats would come so soon, even the battle between the sixth and eighth seats.

This is a sign of bad luck.

Although the disciples were very disappointed with Xu Chen's performance last time, they had to admit that Xu Chen possessed the eighth strongest strength among the younger generation of the sect.

As the eighth seed, Xu Chen will have no problem reaching the top 16, and if he's lucky, he might even reach the top 8.

But in the first round, we met the sixth seat, and if nothing unexpected happens, we will be cut off here.

It is a pity.

After experiencing the last battle where Xu Chen was crushed by Gong Xiangyun, they no longer had any expectations for Xu Chen. Miracles are not something that will happen again and again.

After Yu Qianrou called out the names of the other disciples one by one, they went on stage to draw lots.

However, the other disciples did not receive the same treatment as Xu Chen, and Yu Qianrou recited listlessly, as if she was not interested at all.

"The first battle, Zhao Chengfeng versus Ji Yongyuan, begins immediately!"

After the draw, Yu Qianrou seemed to regain her energy, and her silvery voice rang out again: "Please come to the stage and get ready!"

It’s about to start.

Xu Chen didn't seem too nervous, but on the surface he was filled with the nervousness and excitement of participating in a big competition for the first time.

He walked onto the main sword-discussing platform and saw Ji Yongyuan not far away.

In fact, the two of them were hundreds of feet apart, and for ordinary people, it was difficult to even see each other.

But they are masters, and their five senses are much stronger than those of ordinary people.

They are close enough to see each other.

"Junior brother, you are unlucky, don't blame me."

Ji Yongyuan began his trash talk journey and said.

"of course."

Xu Chen was acting as a young master, so of course he wouldn't show weakness. He smiled and said, "I won't blame you for giving up early."

267. Who is invincible in the sword light?

"I won't blame you for giving up early."

When these words were spoken, all the disciples were stunned.

Even Ji Yongyuan on the stage was stunned. He didn't expect that his junior brother would be so arrogant.

But, think about it, it's better to lose the battle than the person.

Few people would belittle themselves and praise their opponents before a battle.

If you lose psychologically, it will be even more impossible to win.

The mentality and thoughts of practitioners are very important, otherwise there would not be such a big gap between people at the same level.

Thoughts and mentality will affect a person's sword. If a swordsman wants to be powerful, he must be open-minded and follow his own path.

As long as you think you can't win the game, your sword power will be affected and become worse than usual, making it even more impossible to win the game.

"It seems that Junior Brother is very confident?"

"Nonsense, who would admit they're about to lose? It's impossible, right?"

"What a pity! If Junior Brother had met someone else, he might have won. Why did he draw Senior Brother Ji?"

The disciples in the stands all thought that this was just a way to maintain their momentum. They also understood that sword cultivators could not admit defeat.

Momentum is important.

A sword cultivator cannot be weak and cannot have the mentality of being inferior to others.

Even if you really can't win, you can't keep thinking about it.

"Junior brother, it's good to be confident, but you can't win."

Ji Yongyuan could also understand Xu Chen's thoughts, and a trace of pity appeared in his eyes: "I'm sorry, brother will use facts to tell you why it is impossible."

"Let's take action."

He was just about to let Xu Chen make a move, but he didn't expect Xu Chen to say this first, and he was a little stunned for a moment.

This sentence undoubtedly made all the disciples feel a little surprised.

Junior brother actually wants Ji Yongyuan to make the first move?

If Xu Chen had attacked first, Ji Yongyuan might have blocked a few moves to prevent Xu Chen from being so embarrassed.

But if Ji Yongyuan made a move, it would be easily over in one move.

Ji Yongyuan, who was originally stronger than Xu Chen, would not allow his moves to be blocked by Xu Chen.

"I make a move?"

Ji Yongyuan pointed at himself, frowned, and asked with one eye big and one small, like a stone man.

He was a little bit unbelievable. He didn't expect Xu Chen to give him such an opportunity.

"Let's start quickly."

Xu Chen spoke to Ji Yongyuan as if he couldn't wait any longer.

Ji Yongyuan felt an inexplicable sense of frustration after hearing this, and said, "Then I'll come. Don't blame me for being harsh."
