Chaos Spirit Field

Only the top ten outer disciples of the Qingniu Sect were selected for promotion to inner disciples, yet there were hundreds of people taking the test. Tan Tai Fengdu shouted, "Everyone, be quiet! All disciples taking the test, please go to the Daotai. You only have one incense stick of time. No one will be accepted after that."

With that, Tan Tai Feng Du turned and left, leaving the outer disciples looking at each other in bewilderment. While everyone was surprised by this year's rule change, they didn't hesitate. They all used their skills and sped towards the Asking Platform. Most chose to fly on swords. After all, those who could take the Inner Sect Assessment held a distinguished position within the Outer Sect. However, there were always a few who stood out, such as Zhao Shanhe.

Suddenly, a massive black tiger appeared from nowhere in the sky. He leaped onto its back, then reached out to Luo Tianshuang and pulled her up. The two stood side by side. With a roar, Xiao Hei carried them like lightning towards the Asking Platform.

When he arrived at the Asking Platform, Zhao Shanhe realized that he had done something stupid. In the stands, Tan Tai Fengdu and Xiao Meir had gloomy faces, Tan Tai Mingyue was pouting so hard that a bottle could be hung on her mouth, and Tan Tai Mingzhu looked like, "My sister is very angry, you're on your own." Zhao Shanhu waved at him.

Luo Tianshuang lightly jumped off the tiger's back and leaned against Zhao Shanhe affectionately, praising him in a delicate voice: "Brother Shanhe, you big tiger run so fast! You are even more powerful than Qingluan!"

Zhao Shanhe's face was a little embarrassed when he heard this. He gently reminded her, "Sister Tianshuang, there are so many people watching us. Please be more reserved and don't get so close to me. Otherwise, others will see us and give us something to talk about."

Hearing this, Luo Tianshuang's originally joyful expression instantly dimmed. She murmured, "Oh..." with a clear sense of loss in her words.

As time passed, the outer disciples who were taking the test came to the asking platform, and all of them arrived within the time of an incense stick.

Tan Tai Fengdu stepped forward and said, "The inner sect examination has officially begun. The last ten disciples standing on the platform will become outer sect disciples. Zhao Shanhe, take your spirit beast away."

Zhao Shanhe argued, "Sir, the mount is also part of my strength. I have done nothing wrong."

"This elder's words are the rules. Get the spirit beast away now, or you'll be disqualified. Whoever can knock Zhao Shanhe off the platform will take first place in the inner sect assessment."

Zhao Shanhe quickly asked Xiao Hei to leave the platform. He didn't know what happened to him today. He did so many stupid things. Could it be that the saying "The land of gentleness is the tomb of heroes" was true?

Tan Tai Fengdu waited for Xiao Hei to leave before saying, "What are you all standing there for? Why don't you take action?"

Zhao Shanhe adhered to the principle of striking first to gain the advantage and striking later to suffer, and he used a killer move as soon as he went up. A fire phoenix appeared on the platform. This was a perfect fire magic, forcing many disciples to jump off the platform.

The atmosphere on the stage suddenly became much more relaxed. The disciples who had been eyeing Zhao Shanhe covetously turned their attention to their opponents. Luo Tianshuang stood beside Zhao Shanhe, carefully on guard. He made it to the end without any danger and successfully advanced.

Tan Tai Fengdu saw that only ten disciples were left on the Asking Platform. He said, "The assessment is over. The ten disciples on the Asking Platform will become inner disciples. Zhao Shanhe ranked first in the assessment and will be rewarded with a Qilin Pavilion, one hundred Qi Refining Pills, and ten thousand spirit stones."

When Zhao Shanhe heard about the reward, he felt much more relieved. After all, he was his cheap father-in-law, and he was very supportive of his son-in-law.

At this moment, an annoying voice said: "Disciple Ouyang Bufan is not talented, but he wants to learn the methods of the number one outer sect master."

Tan Tai Fengdu looked at Tan Tai Yulong, Ouyang Bufan's master, but he didn't respond. Zhao Shanhe also looked over, a little disappointed by his former uncle's indifferent attitude. Some things really couldn't stand the test, and his aunt was right to leave.

Ouyang Bufan continued to shout, "Zhao Shanhe, you don't dare to accept the challenge. Is this title of number one in the outer sect fake?"

Zhao Shanhe said disdainfully, "Ouyang Bufan, you're challenging me now, are you after my reward? As long as you offer me supplies of equal value, I'll play with you."

Ouyang Bufan looked at Tan Tai Fengdu. The battle between the two of them had to be approved by him, the inner sect law enforcement elder.

Tan Tai Fengdu turned his gaze to Tan Tai Yulong, and when he saw that he had no objection, he said, "Okay, other disciples, leave." As he finished speaking, the other new disciples on the stage left one after another.

Ouyang Bufan flashed onto the stage, as light as a bird. He looked at Zhao Shanhe and said loudly, "Zhao Shanhe, I'll give you some time to meditate and regulate your breathing, so that if you lose later, no one will say that I won unfairly."

Zhao Shanhe's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, but it was tinged with a hint of mockery. He softly replied, "You're at the sixth level of Qi Refining, while I'm only at the fifth. You keep saying you don't want to bully me. Isn't that ridiculous? Don't be so hypocritical."

Ouyang Bufan said proudly, "This world is inherently unfair. I was born with a natural spiritual root, while you only have the most useless five-element spiritual root. Who can you blame for your bad reincarnation?"

"Oh, so you're trying to feel superior to me. Thank you for the supplies. Money's a bit tight these days, so I don't need to regulate my breathing, so let's get started."

Ouyang Bufan said confidently: "Okay, I'll show you what real fire magic is."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Shanhe unsheathed his sword. In an instant, a dazzling flash of cold light streaked through the air, as fast as lightning.

Ouyang Bufan had no time to react. Suddenly, his vision blurred, and a cold, sharp sword appeared at his neck. His eyes widened in disbelief, and he roared angrily, "Zhao Shanhe, how dare you launch a sneak attack! My magic isn't ready yet, so this fight doesn't count! Let's fight again."

Zhao Shanhe said coldly, "Idiot, if you don't admit defeat, I'll kill you. It seems that accidentally killing someone on the stage is allowed."

Ouyang Bufan felt the biting murderous intent coming from the sword blade and suddenly became timid. He shouted, "I give up." He was afraid that if he spoke too slowly, he would lose his head.

Zhao Shanhe retracted the Shanhe Sword and said to Tan Tai Fengdu, "Elder Tan Tai, Ouyang Bufan has already admitted defeat. Isn't it time for him to cash in his stake?"

Tantai Fengdu said: "Zhao Shanhe enjoys the treatment of a personal disciple, and Ouyang Bufan enjoys the treatment of an ordinary inner sect disciple."

Ouyang Bufan said, "Elder Law Enforcement, I don't accept it."

"If you don't accept it, get out of the Qingniu Sect. If you lose, you have to pay the price. This is the rule of the Qingniu Sect."

Ouyang Bufan was speechless. He looked at his master, wanting him to come out and uphold justice.

Tan Tai Yulong said calmly, "Before you do anything, you should think about the consequences you will have to bear. In the world of immortal cultivation, your greatest support is yourself. If your skills are not as good as others, who can you blame?"

Ouyang Bufan bowed and said, "Disciple, I will teach you."
