After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger
Chapter 52: Foundation Building Competition (1)
"Second brother, you're here!" Ever since Pei Ling was crippled by Elder Wang and sent back to the outer sect, he has been hiding in his room in a decadent state, not even completing his sect missions and no longer practicing.
When she saw Pei Ye coming in, she looked at him expectantly: "Did you buy any elixir from Danxiang Pavilion that can cure my hand?"
Pei Ye glanced at her, took out a bottle of bone-removing pills from his sleeve and gave them to her: "This bone-removing pill can reconnect the broken meridians. Although it can't restore your hand to its original state, it won't be as disabled as it is now..."
"Brother, I knew you would have a way."
"Pei Ling, I bought this bottle of medicine from Pei Yun."
"... Pei Yun? How could she have such a precious elixir? She didn't try to trick you on purpose!" Pei Ling, who was originally holding the elixir bottle with joy, suddenly frowned and said doubtfully.
"Pei Yun is now someone you and I need to look up to, both in terms of strength and connections..."
"...She's just a concubine's daughter." Pei Ling said disdainfully.
Pei Ye couldn't help shaking his head when he saw her stubborn look: "In front of strength, all identities are nothing. Do you know that this concubine's daughter whom you look down upon can make the head of Danxiang Pavilion accept her as a disciple; can make the people of the main peak of Zhengfa Hall and even Venerable Feng come forward to protect her; she can also make the sect leader expel the evil Wang He from Yunshan Sect, causing Huo Lianfeng to suffer a great loss..."
"What?! What did you say? Wang He was expelled from Yunshan Sect!" Pei Ling was stunned for a moment when he heard the news.
She still could not forget the humiliation she suffered a year ago. This man had clearly spoken sweet words to her and given her elixirs and magical tools before, but when something happened, he pushed her out to take the blame and made her lie in public that she had seduced him. She was despised and looked down upon by all, which made her feel ashamed and angry to death.
Such a person was actually kicked out of the sect! Or because of Pei Yun, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, and her mood was complicated.
"So Pei Ling, you are not any more noble than Pei Yun. The so-called legitimate and illegitimate status is not worth mentioning in the world of immortal cultivation..." Pei Ye saw that she was still immersed in her own emotions and sighed slightly, "After this time, I will practice seriously in the inner sect and will not come to the outer sect for a long time. You take care of yourself."
"Second brother!" Pei Ling saw him leaving and quickly came to his senses and called out, "Second brother, are you going to give up on me too?"
"Pei Ling, people have to rely on themselves in the end." Pei Ye didn't look back. He just said this and left.
In Pingzhu Peak, Pei Yun had just returned from the second match of the second round of the competition. Her opponent was a disciple from the Formation Hall.
Although the opponent's cultivation strength can only be considered average, his formation is quite exquisite. He uses himself as the center of the formation on the ring. During the fight with her, it seems that there is no method at all, but in fact he is secretly setting up the formation.
Of course, Pei Yun had some research on battle formations, so she saw his purpose early on, but she pretended not to know and did not interrupt him from setting up the formation. Sure enough, the moment the formation was completed, she was surrounded by a vast white fog.
Pei Yun had learned how to break the formation from Duanmu Xu when they were in the secret realm of the Nameless Island. In the end, she found the weak point in the formation and broke it with one sword.
"Junior Sister Pei was able to find the weakness of the formation and break through it instead of forcing it with force. I admire you and I admit defeat." Wu Que saluted with a smile, "Junior Sister Pei is also proficient in formations. If you have time, you can come to the Formation Hall and communicate with us disciples..."
"No, no, I wouldn't. If I have time, I will definitely ask you for advice." Pei Yun quickly returned the greeting. She had been busy practicing and had not spent much time on the formation. She was not brave enough to show off her mediocre skills.
After the Wang He incident, she became famous, but her reputation was mixed, with both praise and criticism. This also led to more people watching her competition. As soon as Pei Yun got off the stage, he immediately returned to Pingzhu Peak.
As soon as she entered the house, before entering the space, she saw Xiaobai coming to her with his two front paws kicking the rolling medicine bottle flexibly.
"Meow!" Xiaobai swung his tail, barked at her, and kicked the medicine bottle to her feet.
"No!" Pei Yun picked up the medicine bottle, not only did he not open it, he also took back the space, "I said I would give you a Huiling Pill every ten days, and it hasn't even been ten days since the last time!"
"Meow!" Xiaobai screamed and jumped into her arms, rubbing his little head against her arm in an attempt to act cute and coquettishly in exchange for the pill.
But Pei Yun was not moved at all. She didn't have time to refine pills now. What Xiaobai was eating now were the stocks that she was going to sell. Giving it one pill every ten days was already a kindness from her as a master.
Unexpectedly, Xiaobai suddenly put the pink paw pad into her palm. Pei Yun subconsciously held it. The next moment, the meeting scene and words between Pei Ye and Pei Ling at the outer gate appeared in her mind.
Although it was only a few short clips, she understood instantly that after Pei Ye bought the bone-removing pill from her, he rushed to the outer gate and gave it to the injured Pei Ling.
In fact, when Pei Ye asked if he could buy the meridian-repairing elixir from her, Pei Yun vaguely knew that it was for Pei Ling. But after thinking for a moment, she still sold it to him. Forget it, just consider it as a favor to Pei Ye for standing up for her.
Pei Yun lowered her head and saw Xiaobai looking up at her with his big round eyes. She actually saw the emotion of desire in a cat's eyes. She was also drunk.
Pei Yun took out a pill from the pill bottle and fed it to its mouth. He rubbed its head and naggingly said, "...use this ability from now on. If you see any suspicious people or things, come back and tell me. If it is important information, I will reward you with extra pills. But you don't need to tell me useless information like the one just now..."
"Meow!" Xiaobai swung his tail and his little ears moved slightly as if in response to her words.
In the second round of competition, Pei Yun also advanced with the result of winning three games. After that, it was a brutal fight where failure meant elimination. Half of the people would be eliminated in every competition in the square.
After Wang He, Pei Yun's competition in this arena once again welcomed Zhuang Yanwei, a disciple from Yinling Peak whose cultivation level was one level higher than hers.
Zhuang Yanwei was dressed in black and had a cold temperament, which made people feel that she was difficult to approach at first glance.
As soon as the two sides started fighting, Pei Yun realized that his opponent's body movements were amazing. He had obviously mastered the state of mind, and it was a very rare state of mind of shadow. It was said that Elder Zhong, the master of Yinling Peak, was responsible for collecting intelligence from all parties.
Her escape light and shadow was still slightly inferior in comparison. With a change of mind, she displayed the Realm of Space, and the speed of her steps increased several times. She and Senior Sister Zhuang exchanged moves, and their clothes fluttered in the air. Even their afterimages could be seen, which amazed the surrounding disciples.
Zhuang Yanwei didn't take it seriously at first, but when Pei Yun used the Realm of Space, her expression immediately became serious.
Junior Sister Pei changed her body movements and her speed became slightly faster than hers. Moreover, it was different from the state of mind of shadow that she had comprehended. She could feel that the other party's state of mind was more mysterious, and it was really difficult for her to see it for a moment.
The two of them not only competed in physical skills, but Zhuang Yanwei's magic weapon was a silver needle. She attached her spiritual power to the silver needles and shot them towards Pei Yun. However, Pei Yun's physical skills were too fast and she missed every time.
Pei Yun's Wind-Fixing Palm could hardly hit her, but after observing her movements, Pei Yun discovered that the shadow beneath her was her weakness. Whenever she attacked, her real body would be hidden under the shadow.
Pei Yun recognized this point, and when she shot out the silver needle again, he not only did not dodge, but instead, he conjured up a water light shield with one hand and used the third move of the Wind-Fixing Palm - Wind Madness - with the other hand to attack her shadow.
Sure enough, a black figure retreated from the shadows and was forced to reveal her true identity. She raised her eyes and stared at Pei Yun seriously for a moment, then said, "I give up." Then she nodded slightly to Pei Yun and left the stage.
"This Pei Yun not only has a great background, but his strength is also not bad!"
"Oh my god! The disciples of Hidden Spirit Peak are not easy to deal with. They are always proud of their physical skills, but she actually saw through them..."
"Zhuang Yanwei can be said to be an outstanding disciple of Yinling Peak. Pei Yun was able to defeat her and challenged a higher level disciple. She is definitely a genius. I have never heard of her name before, and she is still in Pingzhu Peak..."
"Didn't you see it? Pei Yun's body movements are even better than Zhuang Yanwei from Hidden Spirit Peak. It's incredible..."
The disciples below the ring were discussing with great interest. The movements of the two men just now really caught their eyes and they couldn't help but cheer.
On the other side, Zhuang Yanwei returned to Yinling Peak alone, and as soon as she crossed the stone bridge, she met her senior brother Ke Hui.
"Big brother."
"You're back from the competition. How was it?" In Ke Hui's opinion, Junior Sister Zhuang's talent and strength could rank among the top five foundation-building disciples in their peak, so he didn't worry at all that she would lose. He just asked casually.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Yanwei said calmly: "...lost."
"…How is this possible! Which peak's disciples are they fighting against?" Ke Hui was surprised. It wasn't even the final round yet. Based on Junior Sister Zhuang's strength, she shouldn't have been eliminated so early.
Moreover, in this round, it was said that two disciples were randomly selected to compete, but in fact the elders who arranged it would deliberately avoid the strong ones from meeting each other in advance.
"He is a disciple of Pingzhu Peak..."
"Ping Zhufeng! How is it possible?!"
"But the senior brother should have heard of this junior sister from Pingzhu Peak..." Zhuang Yanwei said with a chuckle, "She is the disciple who sued Wang He a few days ago and caused him to be expelled from the sect."
"...It's her!" Ke Hui came back to his senses and laughed with interest. "Recently, it has been rumored that this junior sister has quite a few connections. She is a disciple of Pingzhu Peak, but she has close contacts with the main peak of Zhengfa Hall. She even asked Venerable Rufeng to come out in person to protect her. She even rejected the request of Elder Zhang, the head of Danxiang Pavilion, to accept her as a disciple. Various rumors are spreading, but no one is talking about her strength. Is her strength really better than yours?"
"Indeed." Zhuang Yanwei nodded. She was not angry because she lost to a disciple whose cultivation was not as good as hers. Instead, she said frankly, "Although Junior Sister Pei's cultivation is not as good as mine, she has a solid foundation. She is not better than me by magic weapons, but she has seen the flaws in my body movement. However... what surprised me most is that her body movement is actually better than mine. The artistic conception she comprehended is definitely higher than my shadow artistic conception..."
"This is really... It's hard to say about this year's foundation building competition. Many disciples with potential have appeared."
Zhuang Yanwei nodded and stopped talking. She had originally thought that she would be in the top 50 this time, but she didn't expect to be eliminated so early. However, the opponent defeated her fairly, so although it was a pity, there was nothing to complain. Luck is also a kind of strength. It was her fault that she met a master early.
After several more competitions, the top 120 disciples were finally selected. Pei Yun advanced to the top 120 with a perfect record. She saw many familiar faces among them, such as Luo Qi and Lu Yu, as well as Zhao Yuexi and her junior brother Qu who also advanced successfully.
The next step is a round-robin competition, which means that each disciple must compete with the other 119 disciples in a ring to determine the final ranking.
Each disciple has to participate in five or six competitions a day, and the consumption of spiritual energy needs to be compensated by elixirs. At one time, more and more monks went to Danxiang Pavilion, and it was bustling every day with business.
Of course Pei Yun didn't need it. The seventh-grade elixirs she refined herself had reached high-quality or even perfect levels, and were definitely enough for self-sufficiency.
After the round-robin battle began, Pei Yun faced different outstanding disciples from each peak every day. Those who could make it into the top 120 were undoubtedly the sect's foundation-building disciples with strong strength and solid foundation. There would not be fakes like Wang He who took drugs and relied on magic weapons among them.
Pei Yun witnessed all kinds of exquisite spells among her peers. For example, one of Huang Juefeng's disciples was good at earth-based spells. Her whole body was petrified. She had no place to attack him, and in the end she relied on exhausting the opponent's spiritual power to make him admit defeat.
A disciple of Xin Yaofeng practiced the same swordsmanship as her - the Nine Profound Gold Swordsmanship. Both of them comprehended the artistic conception of gold. However, Pei Yun had the guidance of Luo Rufeng before, so he was better in swordsmanship and finally won.
The disciples of Huo Lianfeng even regarded her as their enemy, and they attacked her ruthlessly right from the start, using their most powerful moves. Pei Yun was not afraid at all, as her Ice Flame Fire was at a high level, and her Phoenix Fire Art became more and more handy with constant practice, so the people of Huo Lianfeng were defeated by her one by one.
The disciples who were watching from the bottom of the arena all shook their heads and laughed, "Huo Lianfeng, who is the best at fire magic, can't even beat the people from the outer peaks in fire magic..." This made the disciples of Huo Lianfeng look even uglier. They were also aggrieved! This woman was really the nemesis of Huo Lianfeng!
Pei Yun's spiritual power had been mostly consumed. As soon as he got off the stage, he swallowed a Huiling Pill, drank the spiritual liquid in the space, and sat cross-legged in a corner of the viewing platform, practicing the Sanyuan Huaqi Jue to restore his spiritual power.
There were already some elders and Jindan disciples sitting on the viewing platform, but not many. However, Luo Chengfeng and his wife did come to the sect, and now they were temporarily staying at Lingjian Peak. Pei Yun took the time to pay a visit to the two elders.
The strength that Luo Qi has shown now has made both the high-level members of the sect and the low-level cultivators below regard him as the biggest favorite to compete for the championship with Qian Ge, the first place winner of the previous session, Qingqi Peak.
Soon it was Pei Yun's turn to go on stage again, and this time her opponent was an acquaintance - Zhao Yuexi.
"Junior Sister Pei Yun, please give me some advice."
"Senior Sister Yuexi, please give me some advice."
In fact, Zhao Yuexi was also very surprised that Pei Yun could reach this step. You know, among these 120 disciples, most of them are in the late stage of foundation building or even perfect, and there are only a dozen people in the middle stage of foundation building who can reach this step. Among these dozen people, including her, only Pei Yun has defeated all his opponents so far.
Anyone who paid a little attention to Pei Yun's competition would know this. At this point in the competition, the information of the 120 disciples had already been collected by all parties, so most people present regarded Pei Yun as a dark horse with good strength, but at this time no one thought she could make it into the top 50...
