Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 31 Who the hell is that in the forest?

On the main hall square, the disciples who had just finished their morning lessons started watching the excitement again.

"Brother Lin Jian is so awesome, and the clown is actually me..."

"Brother Linjian is so awesome, and the clown is actually me..." The little frog called carefreely.

"Enough!" Bai Jingxuan couldn't bear to watch it anymore and shouted suddenly.

Zhu Xutai, who was about to jump away, was startled. He squatted on the spot and looked at the other party innocently, "Meah?"

"Stop jumping! You've brought shame upon all the disciples of the Zhengyang Sect!"

Zhu Xutai blinked, not understanding why this junior brother who was not from the same lineage as him was so angry.

The person involved has no objection, so why are you making him anxious?

Could it be that I would tell you that through these leapfrog steps day after day, I can feel that my body-building skills have also improved considerably?
As the founder of this new body-refining technique, I decided to name it——

Clown Bodybuilding

You told me not to jump? Who are you?

Zhu Xutai rolled his eyes and jumped away.

Watching Senior Brother Zhu's receding figure, Bai Jingxuan frowned and turned to look at Lin Jian, "Senior Brother Lin, even if Senior Brother Zhu has done many things that have offended him, the punishment he has received should have been enough."

The most important thing is... I don't know if Senior Brother Zhu continues to spread the word like this, then in the eyes of others, Senior Brother Lin will be seen as a villain who bullies his fellow disciples.

"If I can win today, I hope that my senior brother can show mercy to Senior Brother Zhu." Bai Jingxuan bowed with the sword in hand and said finally.

"If you can win, I will listen to you." Lin Jian looked at the other party and casually waved the Fantie sword in his hand.

Looking at his frail and thin junior brother in front of him, Lin Jian felt a little sad.

I never thought that one day Junior Brother Bai and I would end up facing each other with swords.

Think about the kid who, when he first started learning, followed me around all day listening to stories like "Sword Breaking the Sky" and "A Mortal's Journey to Immortality". He even said that I could provide him with spirit stones like Xun'er.

Can you believe such polite words?

Sure enough, after I mentioned it twice, the other party didn't mention it again.

Then, a few years passed, and this kid actually wanted to attack his senior brother.

Well, let me see how this kid has improved in recent years.

"I'm sorry." Junior Brother Bai put his right hand together and made a sword finger, wiping it across the white jade scabbard in his hand.

With a "swish", the flying sword emitting a hint of cold air was unsheathed.

"go with!"

This move almost made Lin Jian laugh.

Did Master ever tell you that even sword cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage shouldn't use flying swords lightly?

The flying sword is cool, and it has lethality while also providing safety guarantees.

But it consumes a lot of true energy!
It is impossible for a sword cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage to control a flying sword for a long time to launch a powerful attack. It is usually only used as a killer at critical moments.

But no matter what, it is always a flying sword.

Ordinary iron should not be easily collided. The sword dancing in the forest released a sword light, nine of which suddenly condensed and headed towards the flying sword that was coming towards him.

Then he lightly tapped the ground with his feet and leaped out in an instant.

With the help of the battle march, the several feet distance between the two men when they started fighting was instantly shortened.

Dazzling sword shadows accompanied by sword dancing in the forest slashed towards the target from all directions.

Bai Jingxuan, who had witnessed the initial conflict between Lin Jian and Zhu Xutai, naturally would not be completely unprepared for Lin Jian's strange speed. The moment his flying sword was blocked by the three sword lights, he recalled his flying sword to defend himself.

As his sword finger moved, the flying sword, which was much faster than the sword wielded by his body, was able to arrive first and clear away all the sword shadows that were coming at him.

But during this gap, the forest was not idle either.

The right hand holds the sword behind the back, and the left hand forms a sword finger and draws talismans in the air.

As the talisman was completed, Lin Jian casually waved his hand. Strands of icy Qi instantly condensed from the moisture in the air. Taking this opportunity, Lin Jian raised his sword and followed again.

But this time, countless ice swords and his iron sword attacked the enemy together.

……

In the main hall, a group of elders and the sect leader gathered together, their faces looking quite serious.

"More than half a month has passed, and there's still no news from the Tianyuan Demonic Gap?"

"The demonic gap closes after each shift. No news right now is the best news. If our two sects join forces and retreat early like the Pingding Sect did..."

They couldn't even imagine the severity of the news.

"No matter how turbulent the Tianyuan is, only a small number of monsters can pass through the Demonic Gap. It should be easy for the two sects to join forces. What we need to focus on right now is perhaps the upcoming four-sect competition, which is related to our status in the eyes of the Holy Land."

Of course, the four sects were allocated the resources of the areas where they were located, such as various spirit stone veins, secret resources, blessed caves, etc.

But if there is no strong boss above, the four sects will probably be in trouble if they rely on themselves.

Under this premise, if you want to reasonably obtain more resources, you can only rely on the four major competitions every three years to reshuffle the resources.

It not only ensures that there will not be too much internal fighting among the four sects due to fighting, but also ensures the enthusiasm of the monks of the four sects, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

In fact, this is the major event of the Zhengyang Sect.

Guarding the Tianyuan Demonic Gap is a job. No one cares whether you do it well or not, as long as you don’t lose it completely.

Resource allocation is the major factor that determines the development of the sect and must not be ignored.

"Have you prepared the list of disciples participating in this competition?"

The Zhengyang Sect is not large in scale, unlike those large sects that have tens of thousands of disciples.

There is no need for a formal competition to select candidates internally. The selection will be made through discussion by the sect leader who is familiar with the disciples' cultivation level, including the elders who teach the skills, etc.

Even if there are occasional controversies, just let the two disciples try it out privately, and there is no need to bring it to the surface.

Hearing the Sect Master's words, the Elder who was passing on his skills took a step forward, holding the piece of silk in his hand. "It's roughly chosen, but there are still some minor changes that may be made. Sect Master, please review it first."

As the voice fell, the brocade in the hands of the elder who was teaching the skills instantly turned into a golden curtain, floating in the air in front of everyone present.

Many elders were obviously also concerned about the disciples in the sect, and they expressed satisfaction when they saw their favorite disciples appear on the list.

"Li Qingyu will definitely go, no doubt about it."

"Bai Jingxuan truly deserves the title."

"Yun Feiyang is also okay."

"Who the hell is that in the woods?!"

The elder who was passing on the skills twitched his lips and couldn't help but explain, "It's the most senior disciple among the current disciples. According to convention, he must also be considered."

Another elder stroked his beard doubtfully, a puzzled look in his eyes, "I've never heard of this guy... before. Does he have that kind of ability?"

"The most senior? How come I didn't know that we in the Zhengyang Sect have such a person?"

The elder who was teaching the skills opened his mouth and felt more and more that his decision to tell Zhenyang to expel this disciple was correct.

Just as he was thinking about how to start, a noisy and chaotic sound came from the square outside the hall.

"Bai Jingxuan is going to eliminate harm for the people!"

"Overthrow the hegemony of the eldest brother and defend the honor of physical cultivation to the death!"

"Hurry, hurry! Finally, we get to see our talented junior brother take action. Let's see how he teaches that idle Senior Brother Lin a lesson!"

Many elders including the sect leader looked at each other, and it was the sect leader who chuckled and took the first step towards the door of the hall.

"It's just right. Let's take a look at the strength of the disciples on this list."

As the voice fell, the figure had already leaped several feet away.
