RPAGF Chapter 16 Inner Sect Competition
Chapter 16 Inner Sect Competition
There are people who practice talisman making?
Liu Jun isn't very good at talismanic arts, but he can draw talismans. The first three were easy to teach, but it seems he'll have to put in the effort to teach this little girl.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Xingxing produced four sets of clothes in her hand. She then said to them, "These robes can be freely altered to fit your body shape and can block a fatal blow from a Nascent Soul cultivator. You can wear them from now on."
It can withstand attacks from Nascent Soul cultivators, and they just casually give away such a valuable treasure?!
The four were stunned, but what happened next was even more astonishing.
Liu Xingxing then took out four storage bags and gave them to them: "These are your allowances. In addition to the sect's allowance, you can also come here to collect one more each month."
Liu Xingxing gave each child two mid-grade spirit stones. She had initially thought two stones were a bit too few, but she couldn't spoil the children. She could reward them with extra stones if they did something good in the future.
However, Liu Xingxing still did not expect that the monthly allowance for a menial disciple was only ten low-grade spirit stones, while the allowance she gave was equivalent to more than a year and a half's worth for others.
The four of them were still in a daze after receiving such a generous gift, but this was just the beginning.
……
As night fell, in a secluded spot in the outer sect disciples' quarters of the mountain, in an ordinary house, Lu Xihan focused his spiritual sense on cultivating within the bracelet space on his wrist.
The flow of time inside the bracelet space is very different from that outside. Ten days inside is equivalent to one day outside, and the spiritual energy inside is ten times more concentrated than outside, which has allowed Lu Xihan's cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.
However, this body has the worst five spiritual roots, which hinders her cultivation progress. But there is a library in the space, and she can only enter the first floor of the library at present, but that is enough.
She had seen a spiritual medicine in a book in the library that could refine her useless five spiritual roots into chaotic five spiritual roots. At that time, she would not only be able to cultivate without any bottlenecks before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, but she would also be able to absorb five kinds of spiritual power at the same time without mixing them.
This kind of elixir was not mentioned in the book. Apart from describing the love affair between the female protagonist and the young demon lord in the Shangyuan Secret Realm, the book did not mention this matter at all. She must enter the top ten in this competition to have the opportunity to go to the secret realm to find the elixir.
Lu Xihan glanced at the vast, empty spiritual field formed from spiritual soil in front of him, and then began to meditate and cultivate.
On Luoqian Peak, Wei Qiushuang and Su Jiangling sat side by side on a rooftop, gazing at the stars.
Su Jiangling glanced at Wei Qiushuang secretly and then smiled, "Junior Sister will definitely shine in tomorrow's competition."
Wei Qiushuang's face flashed with confidence: "In previous years, Senior Brother Su was always among the top three in the competition. I, the perennial fourth place, can't hold back this year."
"That's natural, but I'm afraid your strength is still a bit lacking this year, Junior Sister," Su Jiangling teased deliberately.
Wei Qiushuang, however, was full of defiance: "We'll see!"
Su Jiangling just smiled indulgently and didn't say anything.
next day
Liu Xingxing claimed to be meditating, but in reality, she slept in until the sun was high in the sky before lazily getting up to check on the competition.
Putting aside the inner sect competition of Xuanshan Sect, the strongest sect to date, Liu Xingxing is determined to watch this show just because several main and supporting characters are present.
Anyway, she can use a secondary account to watch whatever she wants without any problem.
However, the first half usually features minor characters, so there's no need to watch it.
After tidying herself up, Liu Xingxing stepped out of the room and saw that the courtyard and the house inside and out had obviously been cleaned. Faint sounds of weapons could be heard coming from the open space outside the courtyard, which must be those brats practicing.
Liu Xingxing planned to let them cultivate on their own for a while, and then teach them after she found a good item.
Because of her previous experience, Liu Xingxing specially changed into a different set of magical robes and wore a veil before flying away on her sword.
The large square in front of the main hall was already packed with people, and the two fighters on the central arena were still locked in a battle.
Lu Xihan silently noted down the main characters who appeared in the crowd, and occasionally glanced at Wei Qiushuang's location.
The person next to Wei Qiushuang should be Su Jiangling. This body was created because of him, which is why she went on to frame the female lead in various ways.
"He's not even that good-looking. Your taste is terrible, original owner," Lu Xihan silently complained.
Fortunately, it's not too late.
Lu Xihan gently stroked the bracelet on her wrist and murmured something under her eyes.
When Liu Xingxing arrived, the competition was only halfway through, and it was just a preliminary round, yet it had already eliminated a considerable number of people who were not good enough.
While the elders were still chatting happily, a powerful divine sense swept over them. Divine sense is different from pressure; only those with a certain level of strength can sense it.
The elders were startled and immediately stood up to perform a grand salute, but Liu Xingxing stepped in front of them and stopped them.
"No need, there's no need to publicize it."
The words of greeting were immediately stuck in their throats, and the elders were momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Liu Xingxing added, "It's alright, I'm just here to watch the fun. Everyone can continue as usual."
The elders then relaxed a little.
Liu Xingxing then asked Lü Yuanbai, "Xiaobai, I arrived suddenly, could you save me a seat?"
Lu Yuanbai stepped forward respectfully and said, "Since it is the Ancestor who has come, he should naturally sit in the main seat."
"As the sect leader, you should naturally sit in the main seat. I can sit wherever I like."
If she's in the center position, wouldn't it be better to just tell everyone that she's the boss? What would be the point of everything she did before?
Lu Yuanbai immediately ordered someone to add another chair next to the main seat and respectfully invited the person to sit down.
The little incident above did not affect the rest of the competition, which is still going on, though it's unclear which random person was involved.
Liu Xingxing glanced around at the elders and noticed that Xing Lou was not among them. She figured he must have gone to comprehend the Dao. As for the rest, she didn't seem to recognize many of them. The ones she knew were probably all in seclusion.
Most people below didn't notice the little thing that happened upstairs, but Lu Xihan did.
Lu Xihan looked at the woman above and found her somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before. Moreover, she was wearing a veil, so his face was not clearly visible. However, someone who could sit at the head of the table must not be an ordinary person.
Judging from the sect leader's expression, which seemed even more respectful than before, this woman's status in the Xuanshan Sect must be quite high.
Lu Xihan recalled the plot of the book but couldn't figure out who this person was.
Lu Xihan was lost in thought, but her current appearance made it seem as if she was staring at someone.
Someone sensed something and looked down in confusion, only to be shocked by what they saw.
Why is this "supporting female character" staring at her?
Did she give herself away?
No, not really.
Lu Xihan only came to her senses when she realized that the other person was also looking at her. Those eyes looked at her indifferently, as if they could see through everything, but it didn't seem like that at all.
The woman glanced at herself twice and then looked away, her interest waning. The bracelet on her wrist emanated an unusual warmth.
Having worn it for so long, the bracelet had always only given her a cool, icy feeling. This strange temperature made Lu Xihan very uneasy, so she covered the bracelet with her hand, and her back was covered in a cold sweat.
What is the connection between this woman and this bracelet?
This bracelet was left to her by her mother before she died, but the original owner foolishly gave it to her sweetheart, Su Jiangling, only to have him turn around and give it to the female lead.
The female protagonist only discovered that it was a spatial bracelet when she bled and dripped blood onto it during a battle with a monster.
I prevented all of this from happening by making a blood pact with the bracelet beforehand, and the bracelet has recognized me as its master. So why are there still these abnormalities?
It seems I need to be more careful.
Liu Xingxing had no idea that her unintentional glance would trigger such a series of thoughts in the "female supporting character." She was just afraid that the "female supporting character" would notice something, so she looked away guiltily.
Another match ended, and the elder announcing the game finally called out a name that Liu Xingxing recognized.
"Next up is Bu Yangfeng Su Jiangling versus Yaoyuanfeng Yu Yunyang."
"Yu Yunyang! Yu Yunyang!"
"Su Jiangling, I love you!!!"
"Su Jiangling!"
The fans below started shouting wildly, creating a scene comparable to a large-scale fan meeting.
Both are the most prominent figures in the Xuanshan Sect: Su Jiangling, the array master of Buyang Peak, and Yu Yunyang, the alchemy master of Yaoyuan Peak. Both have strikingly handsome faces, but they are different types of handsome.
One has a gentle smile hidden in his eyes that makes people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze; the other is unrestrained, proud, and sharp like the scorching sun.
Two exceptionally handsome men took to the stage at the same time, causing the crowd to chant their names even more wildly.
Su Jiangling, dressed in a black robe, nodded gently in response, which immediately caused another commotion below.
Yu Yunyang, dressed in red, crossed his arms with a disdainful expression.
This is definitely the treatment a protagonist should receive.
