Chapter 11: The Great Competition of Beifeng (Part 2)

  October 15th.

  The sun rises, with rosy clouds everywhere.

  Mount Hua's immortal gate, stretching extremely far, with dozens of mountain peaks. Among them, the largest five peaks are: East Peak Chaoyang Peak, South Peak Luoyan Peak, West Peak Lianhua Peak, Central Peak Yuniu Peak, and North Peak Cloud Platform Peak. Mount Hua's immortal gate is divided into five branches, each located on one of these five major peaks. Each peak has its own lineage, its own skills, and its own power.

  At this time, on the top of the North Peak, there is a huge ancient bell. The bell is as big as a building, and its main body is bright yellow. However, due to the passage of time, many marks have been left on it, with patches of verdigris visible everywhere.

  This bell is called the Zhēn Běi Bell and was left behind by the second-generation ancestor of the Northern Peak.

  It is said that the second-generation ancestor of Beifeng, once defeated all the sects in the Great Jin Dynasty, and was the first master among the cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty at that time. He was highly revered by his juniors. The Shenbei Bell he established has been passed down to this day. No matter what era or generation, when the bell rings three times, it is the Beifeng Grand Competition; when the bell rings five times, it is the Wufeng Grand Competition; and when the bell rings nine times, it is an emergency situation, and the entire peak will be on high alert.

  At this time, the melodious bell sound rose from the top of Beifeng and spread throughout the entire Beifeng.

  "When———"

  After a long time, another "Dang ----------"

  Finally, there was another "when———"

  The bell tolls, echoing in the mountains and valleys, with an unparalleled elegance.

  The bell rings three times, the great competition of Beifeng begins.

  As the bell rang three times, signaling that this time, the North Peak's five-yearly grand competition, which had been prepared for a long time from top to bottom, finally began.

  It's finally going to start.

  Everyone has been waiting for a long time.

  At this time, the other four peaks, East Peak Chaoyang Peak, South Peak Luoye Peak, West Peak Lianhua Peak, and Central Peak Yunu Peak each have several sword lights flying straight here. Those sword lights are either red or blue or green, with different colors, some mixed and some extremely pure like water, piercing through the void and heading straight to the North Peak.

  The sword light is like lightning, and its momentum is extremely swift.

  It was originally early morning at this time.

  Rosy light for thousands of miles, clouds and misty waves, but these sword lights, even in the cover of rosy light, do not lose their color at all. So many sword lights fly over, making Beifeng also look like no human world.

  At this time, the disciples of Beifeng were also secretly admiring those seniors who could ride swords and fly. It was not easy to ride a sword and fly, it was a realm that had reached the stage of practicing the body, not ordinary people could compare with. If they waited for themselves to reach the stage of practicing the body, it would be unknown how long it would take.

  Cloud Valley

  This valley is a rather special one among the northern peaks, and it's said that Cloud Valley was where the second-generation ancestor practiced swordplay in his youth. The fact that the second-generation ancestor could defeat anyone in the Great Jin Dynasty without exception has something to do with this place. It's also said that back then, Cloud Valley was shrouded in thick clouds and mist, and it was here that the second-generation ancestor created the Cloud Dragon Heart Method and the Cloud Mist One Hundred and Eight Swords. Of course, these are just rumors, and the actual place where the second-generation ancestor created the Wind Cloud One Hundred and Eight Swords and the Cloud Dragon Heart Method is actually Wild Wind Willow Leaf. However, as the five thousand years passed, all sorts of things from back then have been submerged in the traces of time.

  Today's Cloud Valley has long since lost its clouds and is just a very famous ordinary valley.

  Every time Beifeng Dabi is set in Yungu.

  At this time, the venue of the North Peak Conference has been set up. The positions for the Six Swords of the North Peak and many elders have been arranged at the rostrum. On the left side of the rostrum, the seats for the distinguished guests who came to attend the ceremony have also been arranged. As one of the five peaks of Mount Hua, the North Peak naturally sent people to attend the ceremony.

  On the right side, it is the position of the top ten true disciples. The identity of these disciples is completely different from that of other disciples. To say nothing of the better treatment they receive, people like Beifeng Liu Jian Xian in the future may also come from among the top ten true disciples. It's precisely because of their great power and high status that the position of the top ten true disciples makes people envious, which is why Sima Hao wants to take Lu Yuan's place.

  As for ordinary disciples, there is no place for them.

  At this time, each entered separately.

  The leader of the six sword immortals of Beifeng is Yuan Yuanshangren, the master of Beifeng. Yuan Yuanshangren is an old Daoist with a profound and unfathomable aura. The other five swords have also been seen: Junzi Sword Fang Rujin has a dignified and righteous air; Yuanrong Sword Ye Rongyang is a big, middle-aged fat man with a smiling face, looking like a merchant. Rijian Sword Sima Changbai is an old white-faced man with a somewhat similar appearance to Sima Haobai's white-faced look; Weimeng Sword Li Yuanbai occasionally coughs when speaking on stage; and Guixin Sword Dugu Ye is a woman as beautiful as a secluded valley orchid, looking around 20 years old, although her actual age must be quite large. Of course, asking a female cultivator about her age in the cultivation world is considered impolite behavior.

  The six sword immortals of Beifeng have all entered the arena.

  While other peaks have many visitors, few people know of this one.

  Finally, it's the turn of the top ten true disciples.

  ——————

  Lu Yuan stood there lazily, took a glance and clearly felt that Ye Fang and Ye Yuan's mental state had changed somewhat. It seemed that their special training had yielded some results. Just as he was thinking this to himself, a mocking voice came over: "Oh, isn't this Sixth Young Master?"

  Upon hearing this familiar yet disputing voice, Lu Yuan didn't need to turn his head to know who it was.

  This man is none other than Sima Bo, the fifth of the Ten Great True Disciples.

  He is also the eldest grandson of Sima Changbai and the elder brother of Sima Hao. However, due to his early birth, he was inserted into the top ten true disciples, while Sima Hao was born later and not included in the top ten true disciples due to various circumstances, ranking eleventh, a heartbreaking eleventh place. Seeing the decline of this lineage, he thought of usurping Lu Yuan's position.

  Simba Bo's sarcastic voice came again: "I heard that the sixth brother, his culinary skills are quite high. If he opens a restaurant when he goes down the mountain, it will definitely be very good business. However, for this time's peak competition, I hope that the sixth brother's culinary skills can bring some good luck to the sixth brother and not lose too badly." Sima Bo is indeed Sima Hao's older brother, even their way of speaking is so similar.

  Lu Yuan turned his head back.

  Originally, if it were someone else's sarcasm, Lu Yuan would have let it go, not worth getting angry about. However, Sima Bo was different. Sima Bo was the eldest grandson of Sima Changbai and the elder brother of Sima Hao. The Sima Changbai line had already reached the gate, and he couldn't retreat anymore, with no room for retreat.

  Lu Yuan couldn't help but think of something, and an idea was born in his mind. He turned around and looked at Sima Bo with a smug face: "Oh, it's Eldest Senior Brother, I see that you have great confidence in your younger brother. Alright then, let's make a bet. If I can hold onto the position of one of the top ten True Disciples this time, then you lose. But if I don't, then you win."

  "As for the bet, I'll stake my Nourishing Sword and add 40 pieces of low-grade spirit stones. You, Fifth Brother, will stake your Long Rainbow Sword and also add 40 pieces of low-grade spirit stones. How about it?"

  As soon as this remark came out, all ten of the true transmission disciples around him were quite surprised.

  The stakes are extremely high.

  Flying Sword, in the Immortal Realm, is quite rare.

  The material of the flying sword is extremely rare, and the precious Nine You Xuan Tie is not the most difficult to obtain. To refine a flying sword, one needs to be a master who has cultivated their body to the point where they can spit out a mouthful of their own lifeblood, which would harm their vitality. Even those at the peak of the Body Refining stage are reluctant to refine many flying swords, making them all the more precious and valuable.

  Like Lu Yuan, one of the top ten true transmission disciples, had a good master Li Yuanbai, and got a handle of Yangwu sword.

  Simabo had a grandfather named Sima Changbai, who was also one of the top ten true transmission disciples and possessed only one Longhong Sword, showing the preciousness of flying swords.

  As for the lower-grade spirit stones, someone like Lu Yuan, as one of the top ten true disciples, only gets ten lower-grade spirit stones per year. This means that even someone like Lu Yuan, a top ten true disciple, would need to save up for four years just to accumulate forty lower-grade spirit stones.

  This bet is not just big, but very big indeed.

  Unexpectedly big.

  The gambling fight between the elders is unknown, but it was absolutely the biggest gamble among the tenth generation of disciples.

  Lu Yuan is going to defeat Sima Changbai and Sima Hao this time.

  It's not enough to just make these two people's faces swell, they also want to win substantial material rewards, so there was this gamble. These two have come to my doorstep, they've come to my master's face, why shouldn't I fiercely counterattack? To deal with the enemy, you must thoroughly defeat him.

  We must defeat the enemy both spiritually and materially.

  I have always been lazy and rarely deal with people.

  However, when it comes to dealing with people, this is indeed the way to do it.

  Once you become an enemy of mine, I will make you regret it thoroughly.

  Simabo heard such a large bet, his face changed involuntarily. This bet was too big, so big that he was surprised, and he really didn't dare to bet anymore. However, with so many people watching, if he didn't dare to bet, wouldn't it be ridiculed? He would also lose face among the top ten true transmission disciples in the future: "Alright, I'll bet."

  "Good." Hearing Sima Bo agree, Lu Yuan secretly smiled in his heart. This Sima Bo had come to him seeking defeat himself, and it was no wonder he couldn't blame himself. Of course, on the surface, there was not a hint of change.

  This bet is now officially established.

  At this time, the people around him became more and more energetic.

  Unexpectedly, this good show has actually been upgraded.

  Sima Changbai and Li Yuanbai's open and secret struggles, the competition for the top ten true disciples between Lu Yuan and Sima Hao, the gambling battle between Lu Yuan and Sima Bo... Originally, there were already interests of the top ten true disciples involved, now with such a big stake added, it became even more exciting. However, what the people of Beifeng didn't understand was that since Lu Yuan had basically lost anyway, why did he still propose such a bet?

  Draft Party is indeed powerful, no electricity during the day but still can work at midnight, I want to be a Draft Party member. By the way, in preparation for Sunday's ranking battle, let's practice summoning recommendation votes: one, two, three, bring me the recommendation votes! PS: Tomorrow starts ** plot, although it's a classic fantasy novel, we should also ** at that time.
