Time passed quickly, and the days of the outer gate competition had arrived. In the huge school grounds that were enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, some inner gate disciples began to set up the venue to prepare for the competition.

There are even some elders who have reached the Dingyuan Realm who have reached the overall situation, and the scene is very hot.

"This competition is very important to the sect, and we should do our best to select the future pillars of the sect." A middle-aged elder stepped into the school and ordered the inner disciples: "As soon as possible, your mission is still behind."

The inner disciples answered in unison.

"Haha, Elder Sun, don't be fine." At this time, another elder appeared, with a slightly fat figure and a very kind smile.

The middle-aged elder looked back and smiled and said with a slight smile: "We old guys who usually practice cultivation only have reasons to appear when there is a grand event in the sect. But since you are here, you are here too, it means that the qualifications of the outer disciples are very good this time are not false."

The slightly fat elder smiled and didn't say anything.

Because this outer sect competition attracted the high attention of the senior officials of the Xuanjian Sect, some elders who had been practicing hard all year round also came out of seclusion and hoped to find Xinyi's disciples.

As the saying goes, there are disputes when there is interests. Having a talented disciple means that his status in the sect will increase a lot, which is enough to cause intrigue and even fight among the elders who do not deal with them on weekdays.

Similar things happen frequently in the school field.

"Okay, since you have come, let's talk less and wait for the outer disciples to gather, and then you can start the first theory competition." At this time, an old man in gray clothes appeared, preventing the open and secret struggles of these elders.

"Elder Wan."

When the elders saw the old man, they hurriedly greeted him, with a hint of respect in their tone.

Because this elder is one of the ten real power elders of Xuanjian Sect, the Tibetan elder Wan Qingming.

The ten real power elders of Xuanjian Sect are second only to the sect leader and the Supreme Elders who are hidden in the world. They have great rights in the affairs of the sect, and even have the right to impeach the sect leader and deny the sect leader's decision.

As an elder of the Tibetan Buddhist scriptures, Elder Wan Qingming not only occupies a high position, but also has a personal strength of the eighth section of the Earth Yuan. He is also considered a strong among the ten elders.

Then Elder Wan nodded and said to everyone: "In a moment, the first round of competition will begin. I will host this outer competition. Since you are here, let's prepare it."

"Yes, Elder Wan." These elders who had no real power and were determined to practice cultivation agreed one after another, and then went to command the many inner disciples present.

The sun is rising, the sky is already bright, and a white mist fills the school ground, making people feel like they are in a fairyland.

This is the formation arranged by the Xuanjian Sect. It begins to gather vital energy, and the abundant vital energy turns into mist, which has many benefits to the human body.

As time goes by, more and more outer disciples appear at the school ground. When people gather in the school ground, the outer disciples stand together in groups of three or three, whispering to each other to discuss the content of today's first discussion competition.

"Look, it's Murong Zhen."

Suddenly, a slight noise broke out from the crowd. Murong Zhen was so excited that he enjoyed everyone's gaze and came to the center of the schoolyard.

Yun Ao followed behind him, looking at everyone around him expressionlessly.

"I heard that Murong Zhen is already in the tenth stage of the battle qi. You see, the battle qi around him is dissipated. It is obvious that he has just broken through, but even so, the number one in the outer sect must have been taken into consideration by him."

Whispers rang in the crowd.

Those young men with good eyesight all saw Murong Zhen’s fighting spirit floating around him, creating an aggressive aura. It was precisely because he had just broken through the realm that caused this.

Not long after, the crowd was in a stir again, and the outer disciples who were originally gathering made a way out from left to right. A beautiful girl came over with a cold and arrogant expression, and she looked disdainful to everyone around her.

"It's Dan Tai Yan." Yun Ao whispered.

Murong Zhen looked at him and found that Dan Tai Yan was also looking at him, and couldn't help but smile. "I heard that she had been practicing for half a month, and now she should be in the tenth level of war energy."

While speaking, Dan Tai Yan had already withdrawn his gaze and found a corner to wait quietly for the competition to begin.

Afterwards, Lin Feng, Jin Wu, Gu Fan, Xia Yue and other outstanding external sects were already present, and Bai Yang also intervened in the crowd without attracting attention.

However, his appearance still attracted a person's attention.

That is Dan Tai Yan.

Dan Taiyan's eyes were cold. He looked at Bai Yang, and a disdainful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then slowly looked away.

Soon the inner disciples began to count the number of people. After all the outer disciples arrived, they reported it to Elder Wan.

Elder Wan nodded and said, "Silent!"

His voice was not loud, but it spread to every corner of the schoolyard, and everyone could hear it.

The crowd quickly calmed down.

"There are two rounds of today's competition." Elder Wan's strong voice spread, and every outer disciple listened very carefully. "The first round is very simple for you. Of course, it will definitely eliminate a group of people. Cultivators are the only way to survive the test. Only those who have survived the test are qualified to continue."

While speaking, an inner disciple had already brought an extremely huge soul stone up and placed it in the center of the venue.

Soul Stone is a special prop to test the strength of a practitioner, with the effects of testing spiritual roots, bloodlines, cultivation level, etc.

However, the service life of soul stones is not long. Many small soul stones can only be used by people for about ten times and will be scrapped.

However, the huge soul stone in front of me was obviously specially prepared by Xuanjian Sect for the outer sect competition, which was enough to support the test of thousands of outer sect disciples.

"I personally used some small measures to this soul stone. If the strength is not enough to the sixth level of the Battle Qi, it will be bounced away, which means that it will lose the qualification for the second round of the competition." Elder Wan looked around everyone and said finally: "This outer competition is different from usual. If the strength is not enough to the sixth level of the Battle Qi, there is almost no hope of survival in the subsequent competition." Speaking of this, he paused a little, looking at the young faces with shocked expressions below, "Yes, in this competition, a group of outstanding people among you will face the test of life and death, but this is also the sect's purpose of honing you and allowing you to grow better."

"Elder Wan, since this is the case, it would be better if we don't have enough time to withdraw from the competition consciously in the sixth section of the Battle Qi. Why do we need to use soul stones to test it?" someone asked loudly in the crowd.

When Elder Wan heard this, he praised, "This is also the reason why I said the first round is very simple. However, in order to prevent disciples who have less than sixth level of war energy from concealing something and losing something in the future competition, we have to use this method to screen. Of course, those disciples who have reached the sixth level of war energy and above are also required to accurately evaluate their real realm, which is to lay the foundation for the subsequent competition."

"Okay, I won't say much about gossip. You are divided into a group of hundreds of people. Go forward and input your battle energy into the soul stone. It will decide whether you will stay or not." Elder Wan waved his sleeves and sang: "The competition begins now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many disciples who were not strong enough to fight Qi were already tempted to retreat, and half of the people on the school field suddenly decreased, and about five hundred people left.

Elder Wan narrowed his eyes and said to the inner disciple beside him: "The people who have left now will be sent down the mountain afterwards. The path of cultivation is to sail against the current, and it turns into impossible. If you don't know how to face difficulties and only know how to retreat blindly, what's the difference between it and a useless person?"

The inner disciple nodded and secretly made a record.

After Elder Wan finished speaking, he saw Bai Yang in the crowd and let out a slight exclamation in surprise. "This kid has solid bones, strong qi and blood, and his body is well-behaved."

He still remembered that a few months ago, Bai Yang chose the incomplete martial arts when he entered the Dream Sutra, and did not pay more attention afterwards. His eyes only stayed on Bai Yang for a moment, and soon moved to the soul stone.

After the competition started, 600 people were eliminated in a row. After all, the sixth level of the Battle Qi is a threshold, and there are not many people who can reach this level. In addition, this first round of competition was to eliminate all the outer disciples below the Battle Qi level. Those who were not strong enough were very tactful and rushed to the front to input the Battle Qi into the soul stone.

Soon, all the disciples who had less than sixth level of war were screened out, and then there were only about 300 people left near the soul stone.

In other words, there are only 300 people with more than sixth level of war energy.

"Well, it's more than I expected." Elder Wan was very pleased, looked at the three hundred people and said slowly: "You can reach the sixth level of the battle qi or even higher in less than a year of entry. This is enough to show that you are extremely talented, but just this is not enough. Your second round of competition is actual combat, but not actual combat with people, but with monsters."

As he said that, Elder Wan clapped his hands and three hundred large cages were transported from all around the schoolyard. The cage made of black iron emitted a cold light in the sun, and there were monsters with different shapes but extremely ferocious appearances.

"These monsters are your opponents in the second round of competition." Elder Wan's eyes swept across the audience and said slowly: "It is not enough to be able to practice alone. If you don't go through life and death and taste blood, you will not grow at all. These monsters have different strengths, and the weakest ones can also be compared with the sixth level of war energy. Moreover, monsters are different from humans. They have innate advantages. As long as you lose your mind, you will be torn to pieces by it."

While speaking, the inner disciples had already divided the signs with the cage numbers written on them. The three hundred signs were divided into everyone's hands, and the remaining outer disciples looked a little nervous.

Except for a few people, the rest of the people stared at the monster that kept roaring and roaring in the huge cage.

"According to the number in your hands, entering the corresponding cage and killing the monsters inside is considered a competition. Of course, if you feel that you cannot defeat the monsters, you can call for help and admit defeat. The inner disciples guarding outside the cage will naturally rescue you." Elder Wan waved his hand again, and his voice spread throughout the audience.
