I exchanged sects with the real daughter, and I ascended to heaven to offer sacrifices to her

As the draw results were announced, a line of competition information appeared on the stone tablet.

Name: Ye Qingning

Sect: Penglai Sect

Battle number: Number 1

Opponent: To be determined

Ye Qingning and the system were controlled by the number "one" on the stick for three seconds.

What we mean is that this experience can't be learned at all. What's a bit surprising is that she didn't draw number one in her previous life.

It’s just that in her previous life, she lost the competition on purpose.

The reason is very simple. Luoyun Sect is a small and unknown sect. It is not uncommon for a talented disciple from a declining sect to be hunted down and silenced.

In a word: top sects allow their own sects to have talented disciples, but they will never allow small sects without strength to have talented disciples who surpass them.

Because of this, she chose to hide her edge and avoid unnecessary trouble. After all, the Luoyun Sect at that time really could not protect her.

Moreover, she is the fake daughter who has taken over the man's nest in the book. She is neither the male or female protagonist nor the second male lead. At least before completing the strategy mission, she has to live in a sneaky way.

So in her previous life, she chose to develop in a humble way, and would never waste time when she could avoid it.

The competitions within the sect on weekdays were fine, she didn't have to hide anything, after all, the other disciples in the small sect were all mediocre.

But in a competition among immortal sects like this, it is ultimately nothing more than a battle between the talented disciples of the four major sects. She would never reveal herself in such a competition.

That's why Ye Hanyue didn't know in her previous life that Xie Jibai was able to become the leader of Luoyun Sect because it was all her credit. Because they were not in the same sect, she didn't reveal herself outside.

In Ye Hanyue's opinion, she was simply relying on her usual flattery towards Xie Jibai, and the fact that she saved Xie Jibai's life in the devil's cave, that Xie Jibai fell in love with her and became her Taoist partner.

In Ye Hanyue's eyes, no matter whether she broke through the Jindan stage or the Yuanying stage, she was not the best among the disciples of the same realm, so she wondered why she could get Xie Jibai.

Even if Ye Hanyue knew the Ye family's final conspiracy and knew that she was a demonic spirit, if she began to practice with her special physique her strength would increase greatly. Before she became a living puppet, no one would think she was that powerful.

But she guessed that Ye Hanyue probably didn't know about the Ye family's conspiracy and only regarded her as a scapegoat.

Otherwise, given Ye Hanyue's crazy temper, she would be so angry that she would tell everyone that she was a demon spirit and make life difficult for her.

In this life, although she didn't know whether the Ye family had told Ye Hanyue about the conspiracy after the poison was broken, she knew that she was now a disciple of the number one sect, and there was a saying that goes "It's nice to lean on a big tree for shade."

In this competition, she couldn't lose on purpose like she did in her previous life. She wanted to win.

While Ye Qingning was lost in thought, Bai Wei, Si Qian and Si Nan had already drawn their respective numbers.

"Ningning, it's okay. The sooner the competition is over, the sooner you can relax. There's no need to be nervous. I'm number seventeen, and my senior sisters are number thirty-four and fifty-nine respectively. The four of us are all pretty close. I believe that with your strength, even if you're the first to compete, it will be no problem!"

Bai Wei fully recognized Ye Qingning's strength, and her words came from the heart. No matter which one Ye Qingning came on the court, she felt that Ye Qingning would definitely win.

Si Qian was a straightforward person and didn't really think there was anything wrong with number one. The swordsman girl was straightforward and he immediately agreed.

"I think number one is pretty good. After the first one finishes, we can watch the others compete without having to wait nervously. Junior Sister Ye, relax. With your strength, you can definitely beat the other person down!"

Si Nan was reserved and spoke little, but he nodded in agreement: "Junior Sister Ye, there's no need to worry about the order of your sign numbers. Just focus on the competition."

Ye Qingning knew that the three of them were afraid that she would be nervous and wanted to comfort her, and she felt warm in her heart.

In her previous life, she was completely focused on conquering Xie Jibai and didn't even have a friend around her, let alone someone who cared about her feelings.

"Don't worry, senior sisters, I'm fine. After the competition is over, I'll invite you all to Xianweiju. I helped someone survive the thunder tribulation that day and earned some spirit stones. I haven't celebrated properly yet."

When Si Qian heard there was something delicious, she jumped up excitedly: "Xianweiju! Junior sister, you are so kind! I heard that the pan-fried boneless fish at Xianweiju is so delicious! Now my mouth is watering!"

"And there's the Spiritual Fruit Iced Tea that Junior Sister Bai queued up to buy that day. I'll queue up to buy it for you after the competition!"

Ye Qingning smiled and nodded. Since the four of them had drawn numbers in the top 100, they went to the competition waiting area together.

There are a total of 200 seats in the waiting area. The first 100 groups of disciples competing can go to the waiting area to wait for the competition before the competition begins.

Because there were too many people drawing lots, when Ye Qingning left the drawing square, she didn't see anyone who drew number one like her.

But after arriving at the waiting area, the first 100 groups of fighting disciples knew who their opponents were.

With the arrival of Ye Qingning and others, the other disciples who drew the first 100 groups of numbers also arrived one after another.

People gathered in twos and threes, some talking in low voices, some closing their eyes to rest, and some looking at each other with disdain for their opponents. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Ye Qingning and the other three sat together. Si Qian even pulled Bai Wei aside to discuss the delicious food at Xianweiju, as if winning or losing the competition was not important.

This is also the reason why Ye Qingning admires the sword cultivator girl. Sword cultivators are very open-minded and never waste themselves on internal energy.

At this time, two disciples of the Wuliang Sect walked into the waiting area.

The pretty female cultivator whispered to the male cultivator beside her, "Brother Chu, please smile. It's true that Penglai Sect is the largest sect, but not all of its disciples are necessarily powerful."

"That female cultivator from Penglai who drew number one may be pretty, but her strength is clearly inferior to Senior Brother Chu. Senior Brother Chu is a leader among the inner disciples, so it wouldn't be easy for him to win the preliminaries!"

"No matter which sect the opponent is from, I believe that Senior Brother Chu will win!"

The male cultivator had a pair of narrow and long almond-shaped eyes. After hearing the female cultivator's words, his expression did indeed ease a little.

As if he had regained his confidence, he smiled faintly and said, "Having said that, it's still better to be careful."

Upon hearing this, the system was the first to disagree.

What do you mean by "having said that"? Being overconfident is not a good thing. Who are you looking down on?

Si Qian and Bai Wei also stopped talking, staring at the male cultivator, thinking in their hearts: It will soon be time for you to cry.

*

About half an hour later, all the Jindan stage disciples finished drawing lots.

An old man stepped onto the competition stage, looked around at the crowd, and said, "The draw results have been announced. The Jindan stage preliminaries have officially begun. Disciple who drew lot number one, please come up and compete!"

Ye Qingning stood up and stepped onto the arena, followed closely by the male cultivators from the Wuliang Sect.

After the two men stood still, the old man in charge of the competition reiterated the rules of the competition: "In this competition, no one's life may be harmed. If one party admits defeat, the other party may not continue to attack. Violators will be severely punished!"

"Yes."

The two responded in unison. The old man nodded slightly, stepped aside, and announced, "The competition begins!"

The Wuliang Sect male cultivator did not rush to attack, but instead bowed first: "I am Chu Tianhe of the Wuliang Sect, please give me your guidance."

Ye Qingning nodded and returned the greeting: "I am Ye Qingning from Penglai Sect. Please teach me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a male cultivator from the Wuliang Sect holding a long sword, which turned into a cold light and rushed over. The cold light on the tip of the sword shone as if it could cut through the air.
