After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

Chapter 175 Sparks 4 Shots

"And these twenty people will be selected in this test. Everyone must give it their all."

After saying that, Cao Shenyi didn't say anything else. He waved his hand and a white glazed light shield appeared above the high Xuanwu Platform.

This is a protective shield used to prevent the competition on the Xuanwu Stage from harming the disciples watching outside. After the last lesson, this time the protective shield will check every disciple on the Xuanwu Stage to see if they are carrying any evil magical weapons.

Of course, there is also demonic energy.

Just didn't tell anyone.

As soon as Cao Shenyi finished all this, he looked at the head of the main seat with respect.

Qingzhi didn't even look at him, but just nodded slightly.

This means that the arena test has officially begun.

Although the disciples of Qimingzhai are all newcomers, there are also many senior brothers and sisters who come to watch. It takes time to continuously improve one's cultivation, but everyone can learn from each other's fighting skills.

Jiang Liqian's gaze deliberately avoided the lonely and cold snow-capped figure on the main seat and looked at the empty seat next to it.

There were quite a few peak masters and elders who came to watch the battle this time, including Qin Beiyao's master and Shui Lian'er's mother, but she looked around and did not see the figure of Master Chongdao.

I felt a sense of loss for no reason.

It seems to always be like this, her success or failure, life or death, doesn't seem to matter much.

She slightly tightened her knuckles at the cuffs of her sleeves and lowered her eyes, hiding all the emotions in them.

Shui Lian'er loves this kind of excitement the most. The number she holds is seven, which means she will go on stage first.

She didn't have any special ideas about Shennong Domain. If she wanted to get a spot, she would probably not be able to do it even if she sharpened her skills at the last minute, given her current half-baked condition.

Fortunately, she had no shortage of magic weapons and spiritual stones, so she was now interested in the person holding the other number seven.

She pulled Jiang Liqian through the crowd, stretching her neck to see what numbers were in other people's hands. Seeing this, some disciples showed them to her openly, while some disciples felt offended, clenched their palms, and were too lazy to pay attention to her.

Qin Beiyao followed behind her and looked at the number "one hundred" in his hand, feeling inexplicably unhappy.

"Oh, I found it!" Shui Lian'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she pointed at the number on someone's hand and shouted to Jiang Liqian. The person had already let go of her hand and ran over quickly.

Seeing this, Jiang Liqian had no choice but to quicken her pace and catch up.

The other person holding the number "seven" is a young man who looks very gentle and clean. He is thin and the outline of his eyebrows and eyes is a little faint, but he gives people a very comfortable feeling.

"Brother Huai Che." Shui Lian'er's voice was clear, with a hint of surprise, "It's actually you!"

The young man turned sideways and looked over. When he saw Shui Lian'er, he was also surprised: "Junior Sister Lian'er."

"Look at the palm of my hand." Shui Lian'er raised her hand high for him to see.

Ji Huaiche saw the word "seven" on it, and took two steps forward with a smile. He raised his hand and touched Shui Lian'er's head: "I didn't expect to be on the fighting stage with Junior Sister. I wonder if Junior Sister has made any progress in her cultivation over the past year?"

Shui Lian'er's face froze, and she smiled without answering. She stretched out her hand and pulled Jiang Liqian, who was watching the show next to her, over and introduced her to Ji Huaiche: "This is my sister, my mother's goddaughter, Jiang Liqian."

Ji Huaiche had naturally heard of Jiang Liqian's name, and he immediately smiled and nodded to Jiang Liqian: "Junior Sister Jiang, I have long heard of you. Seeing you today, you are indeed different from others."

Shui Lian'er then introduced Ji Huaiche to Jiang Liqian: "Brother Huaiche, one of my mother's favorite disciples. He was later admitted to the Discipline Hall. He's quite capable."

Jiang Liqian wanted to hold her forehead with her hand.

The other party is her opponent on stage, why is she so excited? The other party is very powerful, what good will it do her?

But Shui Lian'er obviously didn't think of this, and instead introduced Qin Beiyao.

Ji Huaiche still nodded politely and called out, "Junior Brother Qin."

But Qin Beiyao's expression was not so good, especially when he saw Shui Lian'er looking at Ji Huaiche with such admiration, that bright and brilliant smile was so dazzling that it almost stung his eyes.

"Brother Ji, I have always admired your great name. Why don't we find a time to spar in private?"

Ji Huaiche's eyelids twitched, and he looked him up and down with a smile, then as if without a doubt, he blocked most of Shui Lian'er's body behind him.

"I'm sorry to disappoint Junior Brother Qin, but the Discipline Hall has so many things to do that I may not be able to spare the free time."

Qin Beiyao gritted his teeth.

Sparks flew between the two of them.

Jiang Liqian was watching with great interest, and she was itching to take out a photo stone from her storage bag to record the scene, and then send it to her junior brother who was in seclusion, so that he could also enjoy it together.

But in the end, her sense of morality drove away the "restlessness" in her heart.

She stepped forward, breaking the tension between the two, and asked Ji Huaiche in confusion: "Senior Brother Ji, you didn't join the sect at the same time as us, did you? Why are you participating in today's competition test?"

The Qiankun Sect holds a disciple recruitment meeting every ten years. Even if there are disciples of Qimingzhai who fail the test, they will take the class again the following year. If they pass, they will stay. If they fail, they will leave Qimingzhai. How could there be disciples who stay and take the test ten years later?

Before Ji Huaiche could answer, Shui Lian'er spoke for him: "It's like this. Senior Brother Ji performed exceptionally well in Qimingzhai, and the Discipline Training Hall happened to be shorthanded. Senior Brother Ji was specially transferred and was caught up in a complicated case. He's been handling it outside the sect and missed the test on the martial arts arena. That's why he was specially allowed to stay this time, just to make up for the formalities."

Jiang Liqian understood.

According to her understanding, there are indeed such "exceptions" who come to participate in the test of the martial arts arena, such as Xu Youan, who cannot come because of seclusion and can only stay until ten years later.

After listening to Shui Lian'er's explanation, Qin Beiyao snorted coldly, glanced at Ji Huaiche, and said sourly: "You seem to know Senior Brother Ji quite well."

Shui Lian'er was completely unaware and happily responded. Then she said, shockingly, "Yes, mother once wanted Senior Brother Ji and me to be engaged as children."

"..."

Qin Beiyao almost bit his back teeth off.

Seeing his junior brother who was so angry that his face turned blue, Ji Huaiche stopped teasing him and took the initiative to walk over and patted his shoulder. He leaned over and whispered to him: "Don't worry, Junior Sister Lian'er is just a junior sister to me. I won't compete with you for her."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Beiyao's face turned red quickly and he waved his hands in panic, trying to explain: "No, no, I didn't, no..."

Ji Huaiche gave him a look that said "I understand everything" and then started chatting with Jiang Liqian and Shui Lian'er again.

Qin Beiyao was left alone, standing there with a red face, unable to utter a word.
