This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 268 The world's best talents gather here

boom!
In the magnificent lobby, an exquisite wine glass was thrown heavily to the ground and shattered into pieces.

There were more than one broken wine glasses on the ground.

"This one doesn't come, and that one doesn't come either. Damn it, they look down on me so much!"

A tall man with thinning hair and slightly older appearance slammed the table angrily.

He is Yuwen Donghao who invited Li Fei and Wang Fengqing to attend the "Banquet of Peerless Prodigies".

Yu Wen Donghao is an eighth-grade student at Tianqu University. The reason he hasn’t graduated is not because he can’t finish his studies, but because he can get more resources by staying at Tianqu University.

After all, his father is the vice president of Tianqu University.

Yu Wen Donghao is 25 years old this year, which just meets the qualifications to participate in this martial arts exchange competition.

He broke through to the Dao Foundation Stage at the age of 24, and the "Tianjiao Lun" states that "one who breaks through to the Dao Foundation Stage before the age of 23 can be called a peerless Tianjiao."

Therefore, his name was not included in the list of 'peerless geniuses', which made Yuwen Donghao very unhappy:
Damn it, I'm just one year late, how come I'm not a peerless genius? !
So on the evening of September 9, after all the contestants arrived at Tianqu University, Yuwen Donghao prepared to hold a "Peerless Prodigy Banquet" and invited the eight peerless prodigies to attend the banquet.

Tonight, he booked the most famous restaurant "Cang Yun Lou" in the capital of Cang Province and found reporters from the newspaper in advance.

He wants to let the world know that he, Yuwen Donghao, is also an unparalleled genius!

In the end, eight people were invited, but none of them came.
"Brother Donghao, we'll leave first."

The younger brother who came to report the news said cautiously, then trotted away.

"Liaoxin, Gan Jingcheng, Li Fei."

Yuwen Donghao read out the names of these people one by one, gritting his teeth, "You all just wait!"

"Yuwen Donghao!"

A thunder-like sound suddenly rang out in the lobby.

Yu Wen Donghao's body trembled and he looked up, only to see a middle-aged strong man who was also tall, obviously bald, and looked 70% similar to him walking in with an angry face.

It was the vice president of Tianqu University, Yuwen Donghao’s father, and martial arts master Yuwen Xinzhang.

"What are you here for?"

Yuwen Donghao looked at his father with displeasure.

"Who told you to run out and embarrass yourself?"

Yuwen Xinzhang asked bluntly.

"How am I embarrassed?"

Yuwen Donghao felt sore and immediately jumped up from his position.

"How dare you talk back?!"

Yuwen Xinzhang waved his hand and a magical power hit his son.

Judging from this opening move, it is obvious that he is already quite skilled.

"what"

"Yuwen Xinzhang."

"Your uncle"

From time to time, Yuwen Donghao's screams could be heard from Cangyun Tower.

Tonight, those newspaper reporters who were called in advance by Yu Wen Donghao were persuaded to leave by the people from Tianqu University, and each of them was stuffed with a big red envelope.

Therefore, the farce-like "Peerless Heavenly Pride Banquet" tonight was not reported in the newspapers in the end, but there was a rumor that Yu Wendonghao not only failed to invite anyone, but was also severely beaten by his father.
March 9, 15 am.

The playground of Tianqu University is already crowded with people.

This playground is where the upcoming martial arts exchange competition will be held, so it has been specially renovated.

A circle of stepped stands is built around the playground, and six columns are erected on the edge of the circular playground, surrounding the entire playground.

Eight square arenas were built on the playground, each measuring 50m x 50m.

These arenas are used for the preliminaries.

Because of the early hype, this martial arts exchange competition attracted a lot of attention, and many people wanted to watch it in person.

So Tianqu University sold some "tickets" to the public, and the ticket prices were expensive.

The martial arts exchange competition will last for ten days. Just from selling tickets, the organizers, Tianqu University and Shangqing Sect, can make a lot of money!
This is one of the benefits of being a host.

At 7:50 in the morning, the stands that could accommodate people were already full.

Cameras have been set up in advance and the TV station's live broadcast equipment has also been set up.

The Inspector General of Cang Province, the Chief of the Zhige Department, the Chief Inspector of the Inspection Department, the Chief Inspector of the Supervision Department, and other cabinet officials of the fifth rank all came to the scene!

In addition, there is a group of officials, all of whom are bigwigs from various departments.

On this occasion today, officials appointed by the imperial court are not even eligible to receive an invitation letter!

It's 8 a.m. sharp.

The president of Tianqu University, Grandmaster Qi Zhou, and Master Xuanchen of Shangqing Sect stood up from the main stand together.

"I am Xuanchen from the Shangqing Sect, and I welcome everyone."

Xuanchen Zhenren of Shangqing Sect gave the opening remarks first, followed by Qi Zhou, the president of Tianqu University:
".Seventeen years ago, your majesty founded twelve universities to attract all the talents in the world! Now, the best of the younger generation of universities are gathered here!"

Grandmaster Qi Zhou did not use his strength, but his voice was clearly heard throughout the audience:
"Buddhism and Taoism have been the leaders in the martial arts world for hundreds of years. Now the elite disciples of the three Taoist sects and Pudu Temple have also gathered here."

"This competition is a gathering of the world's best talents. Please show your talents!"

Qi Zhou ended with a short and powerful sentence, announcing the official start of this martial arts exchange competition.

First is the qualifying stage.

Thirteen universities, three Taoist sects and Pudu Temple, in addition to the 9 people who have reached the Taoist foundation stage, they can also select 27 people to directly enter the main competition.

Together they occupy 36 places in the finals.

A total of 130 people from the thirteen universities can participate in the competition.

The organizer, Shangqing Sect, has 40 places, while Daluo Sect and Yuhua Sect have 30 places each.

Pudu Temple also received 30 places.

So there are a total of 260 contestants. Excluding the 36 who have entered the main competition, the remaining 224 will participate in the preliminaries.

The qualifying round will last for three days, and 224 people will compete for the remaining 28 places in the main competition within three days.

These people are elite, and those with the lowest cultivation level are martial artists in the middle stage of Qi transformation.

More than two hundred martial artists have to select the strongest twenty-eight within three days. You can see how fierce the competition is!
Even if you can really stand out in the qualifiers, you will inevitably get injured.

After three days of hard fighting, even if one's strength could be restored, his mental state might not be able to recover.

The main competition started immediately after the preliminaries, with no rest time at all.

To be honest, this competition system is not fair to the players participating in the qualifiers.

But that's the reality.

Fortunately, Li Fei no longer needs to accept this reality. He is not interested in staying on site to watch the preliminaries and plans to go back to the house to continue practicing.

"You go back, I want to stay and take a closer look."

Li Tianyu said to Li Fei.

Li Fei is qualified to ignore these martial artists who are practicing Qi transformation, but Li Tianyu is not yet qualified.

Although she has already secured a place in the main competition, it does not mean that her strength is necessarily stronger than those contestants participating in the preliminaries.

She wanted to observe more of these people's fights and learn from them.

"it is good."

Li Fei nodded, stood up and left the stands.

He deliberately made a detour and headed towards the area where the people from Daluo Sect were.

The sudden dream last night made him realize that he might really be involved in some incident.

It's a pity that even though the dream was disrupted by the Nightmare Sect's magic, only a little more information was obtained, and then the dream was shattered.

Early this morning, Li Fei inquired about who would be the leader of Daluo Sect this time - True Man Qingxia from Luoxia Peak.

This is also the only Daluo Sect master that Li Fei has met in person.

He had never entered that dream again after leaving Daluo Peak, until he suddenly entered it again last night. There was Qingxia Zhenren on Daluo Peak, and there was also Qingxia Zhenren near Li Fei's residence last night.

If this dream is really man-made, then Master Qingxia is the biggest suspect!

So Li Fei intentionally walked towards the area where Daluo Sect and others were. He wanted to see if True Man Qingxia would have any special reaction to him.

"Brother, look."

On the stands, a handsome young Taoist priest touched his senior brother next to him and said, "It looks like Li Fei."

The senior brother next to him had an ordinary appearance, except for his eyes and eyebrows, which were like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, giving people a sharp feeling.

The senior brother raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Fei who was walking towards this side, and took a look:
"It's a pity that he is still too young. He is your opponent. If you meet him, you must defeat him."

"what?"

The handsome junior brother looked embarrassed, "But he is the first in history, it feels so amazing"

"So what if you are the first in history? You only have two implants. You are carrying the peerless inheritance of our Daluo Sect, what are you afraid of?"

The senior brother looked very disappointed.

One of these two people is named Ning Chuan, and the other is named Ning Xing. Both of them are described as peerless geniuses in "On Prodigies".

Senior Brother Ning Chuan entered the Dao Foundation Stage at the age of 21. He is 24 years old this year and has already received four implants.

Junior fellow apprentice Ning Xing entered the Dao Foundation Stage at the age of 23. He is 24 years old this year and has already received two implants.

Although both are peerless geniuses, their personalities are completely different.

"He seems to be coming for us?"

Ning Xing said in a low voice somewhat nervously.

"Oh."

Ning Chuan adjusted his expression.

Just when he was ready to speak, he saw Li Fei just glanced at them and looked away.

"Brother, he doesn't seem to know us."

Ning Xing said softly, feeling relieved.

Seeing this, Ning Chuan immediately shifted his gaze and stopped looking at Li Fei.

If you don't look at me, I won't look at you.

"My sword will make him remember me."

He said so.

At the same time, Li Fei's eyes fell on Master Qingxia in the stands.

The other party was talking to an old friend and did not notice Li Fei.

It was not until Li Fei was about to leave the area that Qingxia Zhenren turned around and glanced at Li Fei's back, then continued talking to her old friend with a smile on her face.

"Uncle Master, that person is Li Fei?"

"Yes."

In another area of ​​the stands, where the Shangqing Sect was located, Master Xuanchen returned from the main stands.

Next to him sat a bearded man.

The man is obviously young, but he looks a little old because of his beard.

His name was Gan Jingcheng, and he was a lay disciple of the Shangqing Sect.

The Shangqing Sect is different from the other two sects. Its disciples are divided into Taoist disciples and lay disciples.

The lay disciples come from the outside world, and the Taoist disciples come from several aristocratic families that have been passed down in the Shangqing Sect for hundreds of years.

The Shangqing Sect was originally composed of several aristocratic families.

The disputes between Taoist disciples and lay disciples have always existed and have intensified over the years.

The Daluo Sect has been trying to win over several surnames from the Shangqing Sect to help them suppress the lay disciples.

Therefore, the fact that Shangqing Sect suddenly jumped out to openly oppose Daluo Sect was actually a victory for the lay disciples.

Gan Jingcheng is a lay disciple of the Shangqing Sect. He is a leader among the younger generation and the hope of many people.

"First in history, so enviable."

Gan Jingcheng looked at Li Fei's back and sighed.

Xuan Chen Zhenren glanced at him and said: "You have your own path, why envy others?"

"That's what Uncle Master said."

Gan Jingcheng said seriously.

"Your opponent this time is not him, but the one from Pudu Temple."

Xuan Chen continued.

Among the eight peerless geniuses mentioned in "On the Prodigies", only Gan Jingcheng of Shangqing Sect and Mingqi of Pudu Temple were included in the five kinds of implantation.

If both are peerless geniuses and their inheritances are not much different, there is a simple and crude method to judge their combat power:

Whoever has more implants is stronger!

Therefore, if the Shangqing Sect wanted to win the championship this time, it would regard the Buddhist disciple from Pudu Temple as its biggest competitor.

"However, it would be nice if you could meet Li Fei in the main competition."

Xuan Chen said.

Gan Jingcheng understood what his uncle meant.

Whoever can publicly defeat this "number one in history" will be able to "seize" the other's reputation to a certain extent!

"That's really interesting."

Gan Jingcheng smiled.

For the next three days, Li Fei hardly left the house and spent most of his time practicing in the house.

During these few days, he had not entered into a dream state while practicing the 'Qing Mu Chao Tian' meditation method.

He took in [Yan Xin] on September 9th, and by September 11th, in just one week, he had already trained [Yan Xin] to the stage of breaking through the body!
In the room, Li Fei raised his right hand, palm facing up, and a ball of bright flame appeared out of thin air in his palm.

This is the extraordinary ability of [Yan Xin] - control of fire.

Li Fei can consume the power of the implant to generate flames on his own, and he can also control natural flames in the outside world.

At this stage, the 'Flame Control' of the Body Breaking Stage alone does not significantly improve his combat power. The real significant improvement is the physical enhancement brought about by the growth of the [Flame Core] and the enhancement of the extraordinary abilities of the [Steel Armor] and [Phantom Foot].

The improvement in his physique increased the number of Li Fei's blood souls again, and the total number of blood souls became 356!
When the total number of blood souls exceeded 350, Li Fei once again got a chance to strengthen his blood soul skills.

He had already strengthened [Blood Fountain] and [Blood Rage], and now the remaining options are [Blood Evil] and [Blood Power].

Strengthening [Blood Evil] will increase the existence time and amount of blood evil energy generated.

Strengthening [Blood Power] will transform this move from a single attack to a group attack.

After thinking for a moment, Li Fei finally decided to strengthen [Blood Evil].

As the opponents he faced became stronger, the effect of [Blood Power] became smaller and smaller.

It is almost impossible for a strong person who has cultivated the power of Tao to be affected mentally by pure magic.

Therefore, the change of [Blood Power] from a single target to a group target has at most increased the ability of "clearing soldiers" for Li Fei.

He doesn't need this ability for the time being.

As for [Blood Evil], 20 blood souls transformed from the blood evil energy must be consumed at one time before it can be integrated with the Vajra Force to become the original dark Vajra Force.

The blood evil energy transformed from the 20 blood souls can only exist for about ten minutes if it is not consumed.

If the duration of the evil spirit's existence could be prolonged and the amount of evil spirit generated could be increased, Li Fei could save a lot of blood and soul by using the original dark Vajra power.

After the enhancement is completed, the display of [Blood Evil] also changes to [Blood Evil] (Strong).

The next morning, Li Fei walked out of the room and headed towards the playground.

Today, the main competition of the Martial Arts Exchange Competition has begun!

PS: I'm a bit stuck in the writer's block, so I can only update once today. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
