C480 Ethereal Exam
Wang Ba picked up the charming girl and swept her body with a greedy expression.
"Hehe! Then I will collect some interest for the upcoming victory!"
While laughing maniacally, Wang Ba carried the charming girl to the back of the hall.
In the past few days, in the Ethereal Sect, many disciples were rubbing their fists, trying their best to improve themselves. Even if it was just a tiny bit of improvement, it could still decide a victory for them.
Finally, one day, when the Golden Crow rose from the east, the sun was shining everywhere. A rare alarm sound was heard in the Ethereal Sect.
The sound of the bell echoed in every corner of the Ethereal Sect. All the disciples felt a chill in their hearts.
They all understood the meaning of this bell sound.
The competition of the Ethereal Sect had begun.
From the residences of the disciples on all levels, countless of people soared into the sky and headed towards the platform on the mountainside.
Each of them had a solemn expression on their faces.
Because today was a special day, a day to test the results of their cultivation.
The mountainside platform, this was the place where many disciples competed in martial arts, but today, it was filled with people.
On the platform were ten chairs made of jade, and ten warriors with extraordinary auras were sitting on them. All the disciples of the Ethereal Sect below the platform were looking at them with envy.
Because they were the top ten core disciples of the Ethereal Sect.
However, Wang Ba was now the first one, and the second one was a young man with a pale face and a sword on his back.
The third place was Bu Qingchen, who had a Devil Vine pattern on her face. The fourth place was Huo Lie.
These people represented the strongest young disciples of the Ethereal Sect, and they were also the targets that everyone was chasing.
The upper level disciples surrounded the fighting stage, and remained silent.
Behind the upper level disciples were the middle level disciples, who had the most number of people.
Ye Xu stood far away with Kitten and the other lower level disciples.
"I never thought that the Ethereal Sect would have so many people!"
Ye Xu looked over and took a deep breath. Only this kind of gathering could show the true strength of the Ethereal Sect.
One should know that this was only one of the eight divisions of the Ethereal Sect.
If even a major sect was this terrifying, then how earth-shattering would the true Ethereal Sect be?
Ye Xu looked at the sea of people and felt a trace of excitement in his heart.
This was the place where true warriors gathered.
Although there were many disciples in the Ethereal Sect, the platform on the mountainside was very quiet, and no one made any noise.
At this moment, five silhouettes flew down from the top of the mountain. The leader was none other than Qin Xiao, the number one disciple of the Taiping Mountain Ethereal Sect.
Behind them were Bu Qingyan and three floating Elder with white hair.
When he saw Bu Qingyan, Ye Xu couldn't help but think of Yaoguang.
"I wonder how her cultivation is doing!"
He didn't see Yaoguang in the competition this time. It was probably because Yaoguang hadn't come out of seclusion yet. He hadn't seen her for a while and missed her very much.
Qin Xiao brought Bu Qingyan and the others and stepped on the void, looking down at the disciples of Ethereal Sect.
"Today is a special day, and it is also the day that everyone is looking forward to the most. Today, the results of our long term cultivation will be displayed one by one. The rules are very simple. The strong are respected!"
The words' the strong will be respected 'made the eyes of all the disciples of Ethereal Sect burn.
What was the purpose of their cultivation?
It was nothing more than to hold their heads high and stand out from the masses.
Cultivation was a very boring thing. If they could tolerate what others could not, they could succeed.
Ten years of cultivation, once it erupted, who could endure it anymore?
Qin Xiao looked at the excited disciples of the Ethereal Sect, and a smile appeared on his face.
"The rules for this year are the same as the previous years. The top ten core disciples will occupy ten spots, and the remaining six spots will be reserved for the strong ones. After that, the elimination round will begin, and the winner will be decided!"
Out of the sixteen spots, only the core disciples would occupy ten spots, and there were six spots that were occupied by tens of thousands of disciples of the Ethereal Sect. Although the pressure was great, none of the disciples were willing to back down.
Especially the upper ranked disciples, whose eyes were shining. In their point of view, this was the best opportunity to challenge the core disciples.
On the mountainside, there were already ten rings. Each ring allowed one hundred people to enter. Once the number of people was full, the competition would begin automatically.
Bu Qingyan and the others each took care of two arenas.
"Mr. Ye, we don't have a chance anymore. The face of the lower level disciples will depend on you!"
Kitten and the others surrounded Ye Xu and kept encouraging him.
They knew how much weight they had. If they rashly entered the arena, they would only have a fate of being eliminated.
However, Ye Xu was different. His cultivation had long surpassed the category of lower level disciples. Not many of the higher level disciples were his match.
His battle with Huo Lie had spread across the entire Ethereal Sect.
Ye Xu smiled and nodded his head.
With his hands behind his back, he walked towards an arena.
Strangely, after he walked onto an arena, the Ethereal disciples on the arena jumped off the arena one after another, as if they had encountered a plague.
"Uh..."
Ye Xu was stunned for a moment, then revealed a bitter smile.
Those disciples of the Ethereal Sect who jumped off the arena had joyful expressions on their faces.
"Isn't it courting death to fight in the same arena as this guy?"
"That's right. That kid can't even defeat Huo Lie. Isn't it a waste for us to fight him?"
"Right, right, right. It's not easy to have the opportunity to take the test this time. Meeting such a freak in the first round, what's the point of fighting then!"
Everyone, including the upper level disciples, pointed their fingers at Ye Xu, causing him to feel extremely awkward.
"No way. Am I going to win without a fight?"2
Ye Xu smiled bitterly. Just as he was about to speak, footsteps sounded. A group of Ethereal Sect disciples walked onto the arena with gloomy faces.
"Eh? Someone actually dared to step onto the arena? Does he not want to live anymore?"
"Shh, lower your voice. Didn't you notice that all these disciples are from the Overlord Association?"
"That's right. Old Li, Old Bai and the others are here. Hiss... They are using official means to get revenge for their personal grudges!"
"Who says so? Under such a rule, it's reasonable to surround and attack. This kid is in trouble!"
Amidst the discussions, the disciples of Ethereal Sect who had arrived at the arena surrounded Ye Xu.
Everyone could see that the Overlord Association was targeting Ye Xu.
"Wang Ba, this is your idea!"
On the high platform, Bu Qingchen frowned and said to Wang Ba.
Wang Ba greedily glanced at Bu Qingchen's delicate body a few times and laughed nastily, "A trash, do you need me to deal with him?"
"Don't even think about denying it. Out of the hundred people on the platform, besides Ye Xu, the rest are from the Overlord Association. How do you explain that?"
Bu Qingchen said unhappily.
"Explanation? Do I, Wang Ba, need an explanation when doing things?"
Wang Ba crossed his arms in front of his chest and had a cold smile on his face.
"You!"
Bu Qingchen pointed at Wang Ba, speechless.
