Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 19 Trial Ranking and Spell Selection
The top three in this round of trials are Song Zhongming, Liu Benxin, and Jiang Sixuan.

Since Xiao Chen had left himself some time in advance, he successfully won the ninth place, which was within expectations.

It was also at this time that he learned that his usually low-key neighbor, Junior Brother Liu, who planted spiritual fields with him, was actually from the Liu family of Pingyuan, and the family had a unique inheritance of spiritual plant cultivation.

No wonder he learned about the Ghost-Faced Spider the night before the trial. There is a way to express his feelings.

Due to his extraordinary performance, Chen Guangyu was squeezed to fourth place and lost the Xuan-level spell.

After paying so many spirit stones to buy points, but failing to get into the top three, Chen Guangyu's face turned very ugly.

It is worth mentioning that the gap between the top few is actually not that big, with a total difference of less than 30 points.

It's a pity that Chen Guangyu was reluctant to give up the spirit stones and gave up the acquisition, otherwise it would not be difficult for Xiao Chen to help him get the first place. In the end, the generous Song Zhongming got the first place.

In general, the top ten this time exceeded the expectations of many fellow brothers and sisters.

Excluding the seven senior brothers in the second branch who are at the sixth level of Qi Refining, the remaining three are Liu Benxin, Jiang Sixuan, and Xiao Chen.

To put it bluntly, everyone can accept that others rank higher. They either have high cultivation, or have backgrounds, or both high cultivation and backgrounds.

But Xiao Chen stood out among them. He was the only disciple who had reached the fifth level of Qi Refining before the competition and had no family background.

And due to the vigorous promotion of Instructor Wu and his previous rapid breakthrough to the fifth level of Qi Refining, the name Xiao Chen is known to everyone in the Second Branch.

However, no one expected that this guy who had just joined the second branch would suddenly become one of the inner sect seeds, and he was not even the last one.

This is outrageous. What right does he have?

As the ranking was announced, almost all the disciples looked at Xiao Chen, as if they wanted to see what exactly made him so great.

Manager Chen was also a little curious, but he needed to distribute the rewards first.

After announcing the rankings, he took out several magic manuals and motioned for them to come forward and receive their prizes.

The three Xuan-level spells were quickly distributed, and the next step was to choose the one you wanted from the five Huang-level spells.

These spells correspond to five different functions, including breath suppression, defense, detection, attack, and auxiliary training.

This should have been an important decision, after all, the choice of spell is closely related to the future path of cultivation.

But Xiao Chen noticed that several disciples who came from big families or were related to them all chose auxiliary spells without hesitation.

They didn't even look at the introduction of the exercises. It was obvious that they already had a clear practice plan for their future development path.

Curiously, he picked up the auxiliary spell and took a look. It turned out to be a "Three Star Synergy Technique" that increases the compatibility between the monk and the magic weapon.

That book of exploration skills is a "Stargazing and Qi-Observing Technique" that allows cultivators to estimate the strength of others.

The junior brother ranked tenth, after looking through it, also chose "Three Star Synergy Technique" in a very professional manner.

His philosophy is very simple: I don’t know which martial arts book is good, but the choices of other brothers must make sense, so I’ll just follow their choices and see what happens next.

Xiao Chen didn't want to follow the crowd.

Now that he has a cloak, he doesn't really need the Breathing Technique for the time being. Considering the blessing of Hextech, his offense and defense don't seem to be lacking either, at least not urgently.

Then, for him, "The Art of Stargazing and Observing Qi" is the most suitable skill at the moment, which can make up for his lack of detection methods.

As far as Xiao Chen knew, after entering the inner sect, the sect would arrange for the disciples to go out on behalf of the sect to complete some sect tasks.

Although he had just broken through the sixth level of Qi Refining, he was very confident that he could continue to break through in a short period of time and reach the late stage of Qi Refining.

In this way, the "Stargazing and Qi-Observing Technique" that can take effect quickly is obviously more valuable than the "Three Stars Synergy Technique" which has an unknown time of taking effect.

Therefore, Xiao Chen uniquely chose the "Stargazing Technique" and once again became the only one who did not choose the "Three Stars Synergy Technique".

This unique choice once again drew everyone else's attention to him.

Being different is not necessarily a bad thing, but not fitting in is often not a good thing.

Some disciples looked at Xiao Chen with such a meaning in their eyes.

Some people also began to wonder why Xiao Chen could squeeze into the top ten. Could it be that he actually had a hidden background that no one knew about?
Could it be that he possesses some kind of super powerful attack weapon?
Could it be that he was secretly cheating in some way?

……

Jiang Sixuan was also thinking about it, but she never regretted the things she had decided.

Before coming here, she had chosen to stay away from Xiao Chen, thinking that he was just a lucky guy.

Now she still believes in this judgment, because there is indeed a lot of luck involved in this trial.

In retrospect, many of the spirit beasts in the trial were killed by Song Zhongming and Liu Benxin with super high efficiency.

Xiao Chen was just lucky and happened to find a spiritual beast that no one else had discovered.

Jiang Sixuan found a small path by herself and gained a lot of points with the magic weapon given by her family.

So she naturally thought that Xiao Chen was just lucky again.

Luck can exist for a while, but it cannot be relied upon in the long run.

As the saying goes, there are only three things you can do.

Xiao Chen has been lucky three times in a row, and it’s almost time for him to be lucky.

the other side.

Liu Benxin was also looking at Xiao Chen, but his thoughts were completely opposite to Jiang Sixuan's.

In his opinion, although his neighbor had average talent, he was said to have only low-grade spiritual roots.

But if he practices diligently, he is definitely a talented person with potential.

In Liu Benxin's eyes, Xiao Chen is a tenacious and ascetic monk.

In the past six months, he had never seen Xiao Chen participate in any activities other than the branch exchange meeting.

Every morning when he wakes up, he would first meditate in the yard, and then in the spiritual field, he would sit cross-legged and gain enlightenment while casting spells.

At night, he didn't go out to play, nor did he look for others to drink and have fun. Instead, he continued to practice his skills silently under the moonlight.

It has been the same day for half a year, which is a model.

Liu Benxin didn't know that Xiao Chen was practicing ten times faster, and he was addicted to feeling his rapid progress every day.

He asked himself that he definitely could not stand such boring and high-intensity training, so he admired Xiao Chen from the bottom of his heart.

This is also the reason why he is willing to humble himself and communicate with his neighbor while farming.

Watching Xiao Chen enter the top ten and become an inner sect seed.

Liu Benxin felt nothing but emotion in his heart, and sincerely believed that Xiao Chen's current results were not only due to good luck, but also the reward for his hard work.

Apart from them, everyone else also has their own thoughts.

Su Wanqing found out the result as soon as possible.

After she separated from Xiao Chen that day, she had been thinking about this matter. After she came back, she specially entrusted her tribesmen to investigate.

"Ninth?"

However, after hearing this ranking, Su Wanqing was dumbfounded.

???

Xiao Chen is so powerful, but he is only ranked ninth?

So who are the top eight?
