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

The moment the Wuliang Sect's disciples shouted out the three words "Penglai Sect", Ye Qingning inexplicably felt a little nervous, just like being afraid of being called by the teacher in class.

Only when she heard the male cultivator calling out Lu Linyuan's name did she completely relax.

I used to think that the top few would probably not be challenged at the beginning, but now it seems that nothing is absolute.

The old man nodded and announced, "Yan Yue from the Wuliang Sect, ranked 20th, challenges Lu Linyuan from the Penglai Sect, ranked 3rd. Please invite both disciples to the stage for the competition!"

As the old man finished speaking, the two men stepped onto the platform one after another.

Immediately, the disciples of Wuliang Sect stood up and shouted to cheer: "Brother Yan Yue, defeat him! Let the people of Penglai Sect see the strength of our Wuliang Sect!"

The atmosphere began to become tense.

Lu Linyuan, however, looked calm. He cupped his fists towards Yan Yue and said, "I am Lu Linyuan, a disciple of Penglai Sect. Please give me your guidance."

Yan Yue sneered, his eyes full of provocation, and also cupped his hands: "Yan Yue, a disciple of Wuliang Sect, please teach me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a long sword appeared in Yan Yue's hand. A faint blue light flickered on the sword, and a sharp sword intent spread out, heading straight for Lu Linyuan.

There was a sudden cheer from the waiting area, as if this sword could win.

The dog system's eyes were filled with excitement and it couldn't help but gossip: "Ningning, guess why Yan Yue challenged Lu Linyuan right from the start?"

Ye Qingning was like a badger in a melon field, smelling the scent of melons immediately. He really didn't expect that he could eat melons while watching the ranking competition.

(Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me why Yan Yue looks at Lu Linyuan with such a grudge.)

The system chuckled and started to talk about gossip.

Yan Yue is the fourth disciple of the Wuliang Sect's Grand Elder. His talent is definitely among the best among his peers in the Wuliang Sect. The reason he challenged Lu Linyuan right away was entirely because of his junior sister.

(Oh? Isn't this another bloody love triangle?)

The system laughed like a moron: [Yan Yue liked his junior sister. One time, when they were out for training, they accidentally got separated. Yan Yue searched everywhere for her, but couldn't find her.]

[Unexpectedly, after they got separated, his junior sister was besieged by several monsters. When her life was in danger, she was saved by Jiang Shaoling who was looking for the Jade Flame Flower. She fell in love with him.]

(Wait, who?)

[Jiang Shaoling! For some reason, Jiang Shaoling was wearing a mask at the time, and Yan Yue's junior sister was seriously injured. After being briefly treated by Jiang Shaoling, she cried and insisted on following him until Yan Yue found her.]

Jiang Shaoling was annoyed by being pestered all the way, so when Yan Yue and his junior sister asked him his name, he casually said Lu Linyuan's name.

Although the two brothers had different temperaments, their body shapes were very similar. Furthermore, the three of them were not familiar with each other to begin with. When they later met the real Lu Linyuan, neither of them noticed anything.

[The ridiculous thing is, when Yan Yue returned that time, his junior sister drew a picture. The person in the picture was Lu Linyuan. Yan Yue happened to see it, and Yan Yue was so jealous that he challenged Lu Linyuan at the first opportunity.]

Ye Qingning clicked his tongue. You know what, it was quite melodramatic.

I have seen people who betray their senior brothers, but I have never seen anyone who betrays his senior brothers like this. Lu Linyuan is definitely a big enemy, who bears both hatred and peach blossoms.

I wonder if Lu Linyuan would beat Jiang Shaoling up if he knew about this.

After a fierce battle, the two finally decided the winner, and the old man announced: "First challenge, Penglai Sect's Lu Linyuan wins! The ranking remains unchanged!"

When the results came out, the disciples of Wuliang Sect could no longer be happy.

Yan Yue was extremely dissatisfied and wanted to continue challenging Lu Linyuan, but someone had already challenged others.

Ye Qingning was a little nervous at first, but after listening to the system's explanation, he became energetic. In other words, eating melons is the spiritual food of modern netizens.

From the hour of Chen to the end of the hour of You, the first day's challenge for the Nascent Soul group ended.

What surprised Ye Qingning was that throughout the entire day, no one challenged her.

There is also Qian Mo, who ranks second. She is the second disciple of the super rich second elder. She has the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage and has been ignored like her.

The ones who were challenged the most were the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth place, especially the tenth place. She couldn't even remember how many people had been challenged.

Ye Qingning got up at dawn the next day.

The first thing to do after getting up is to hold the red rope and bow devoutly towards the direction of the rising sun in the east, and then pack up and go to the arena.

Compared to yesterday, today's competition was more intense, especially among the top ten disciples. Except for her, the other nine were challenged.

She originally thought that Jiang Shaoling would challenge her if he disliked her, but she didn't expect that the dog-tempered guy would challenge Qian Mo.

Qian Mo is no pushover either. The two of them fought back and forth, and every confrontation was like two huge mountains colliding, making bursts of sharp roars.

Ye Qingning secretly sighed in his heart at Qian Mo's extraordinary strength. He was worthy of being the second elder's favorite disciple. Even when facing the talented Jiang Shaoling, he could handle it with ease.

In the end, Jiang Shaoling was defeated by Qian Mo by one move, which made the system very happy.

A dark horse emerged in today's competition.

Chen Yunshen, an inner disciple of Penglai, unexpectedly defeated Su Ke, the young disciple of the leader of the fourth largest sect, Yuqing Sect.

Su Ke is the eldest son of the Su family, the first family, and is the brother of Su Chanshi who was left in Penglai Sect to be punished.

Su Ke was gifted since childhood and was accepted as a disciple by the leader of the Yuqing Sect. Since then, he has become famous and attracted much attention.

In this qualifying competition, all the disciples of Yuqing Sect thought that Su Ke would be sure to win, and would not lose the competition even if challenged.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yunshen defeated Su Ke with lightning speed, shocking the entire audience.

Ye Qingning was also stunned. After all, she knew clearly that Chen Yunshen had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage just like her, and Chen Yunshen's thunder tribulation was blocked by her for him in the Taoist temple before.

Although Chen Yunshen is very famous among the inner disciples and is the undefeated champion in the monthly square competition, his strength is indeed inferior to that of the direct disciples.

I never thought that it had only been so short a time since he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage that he could actually defeat the young disciple of the leader of the Yuqing Sect.

System: [This isn't surprising. He must have watched a lot of other people's competitions recently, gained some insights from them, and that's why his strength has increased so much.]

Ye Qingning felt that what the system said made sense. By watching others compete, one could indeed learn a lot of experience and skills. Perhaps this would be an opportunity to break through oneself and improve one's strength.

On the last day of qualifying, the battle was extremely fierce.

Almost all the disciples had already used up their two challenge opportunities in the previous two days, so today was crucial.

What Ye Qingning never expected was that until the ranking was about to end, no one chose to challenge her.

Her ranking is like it's welded to the number one position.

Could it be that the gods and Buddhas in the sky really heard her prayers and made them come true?

She can really make it to the finals!

It’s not that no one really wants to challenge Ye Qingning, but after watching the competition between Ye Qingning and Ye Hanyue, all the Nascent Soul disciples felt that Ye Qingning was not so easy to deal with.

After all, if it were me, it would be almost impossible to defeat a spirit puppet in the Spirit Severing stage. In addition, Ye Qingning had entered several other realms, so it was obvious how difficult it would be to deal with him.

Instead of challenging her, challenge others.
