The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 32 Ranking Tournament Ends

night.

A separate courtyard for inner disciples.

Gu Yuan is reviewing today's battle.

The daytime competition was very beneficial to him, and his understanding of swordsmanship was also deeper. Especially seeing many inner disciples sparring with each other broadened his horizons. In this regard, he felt that he was far from reaching the limit of what he could achieve, and wanted to get some breakthroughs from his understanding.

The scene of the battle with Wu Liangyu during the day kept flashing through his mind, and Gu Yuan's eyes became brighter.

Later on, he simply drew out his sword and started practicing in the yard.

In other residences, most of the people who participated in the inner disciple ranking competition in the afternoon did not sleep. Like Gu Yuan, they had many insights. As long as they digested the insights thoroughly, they would be able to make further progress and surpass their opponents who were originally of similar status.

As the night deepened, the Feitian Demon Sect was completely silent.

When morning came, everyone gathered at the Martial Arts Square again.

The ranking competition officially begins.

But perhaps it was because yesterday's battle between Gu Yuan and Wu Liangyu was too thrilling, which made the subsequent knockout rounds boring.

Based on the principle that each of the ten inner sect disciples must fight each other, the battle between Wu Liangyu and Gu Yuan was specially reserved for the end.

Many people are curious whether they can defeat Gu Yuan by leveraging the advantages of the Black Crow Technique to the fullest extent.

Finally, around noon.

Gu Yuan and Wu Liangyu are about to face off.

So far, the two of them have defeated the other ten inner disciples in the ranking competition at their best.

Basically no one can last more than three moves in their hands.

Even Ling Xue, who had comprehended half of the sword intent, could not withstand Wu Liangyu's death hurricane and was blown off the stage.

It was Gu Yuan who took the initiative to compete with the opponent. After a while, both sides gained something and Ling Xue admitted defeat.

But when it came to Wu Liangyu and Gu Yuan's turn to fight again in this final battle, the former made an unexpected move.

"Let's postpone this battle for now. We'll have a showdown on the Hidden Dragon Rankings."

Yesterday's loss to Gu Yuan was a big blow to Wu Liangyu. He didn't know what others thought of it, but in his opinion, Gu Yuan was able to win mainly because of their close distance. He also underestimated his opponent and let his mind slack, so he was taken advantage of by Gu Yuan.

If he flew into the air at the beginning and kept a distance of hundreds of meters from the opponent, as long as Gu Yuan made the slightest movement, Wu Liangyu would have enough time to react by relying on the speed-increasing effect of the Black Crow Technique, and would not give Gu Yuan the opportunity to use that move on him.

But this is still not safe enough.

Now is the critical moment for him to enter the Baoyuan realm, and the ninth level of the Black Crow Art is also about to break through.

There are still two months left before he can be listed on the Hidden Dragon List, and he is confident that he will be able to break through within this short period of time.

By then, it will be time for Wu Liangyu to avenge his previous humiliation.

Saying this was a disguised way of admitting defeat.

At the elders' table, Lord Black Crow frowned and looked at his disciple with disappointment. It was clear that Wu Liangyu was cowardly by doing this, or he was afraid to face failure and was afraid of failure.

This is a big taboo for warriors in the true spirit world that emphasizes the will of martial arts.

"I'm waiting for you!" Gu Yuan didn't know what Wu Liangyu was thinking and he didn't care, but if it happened to him, he would never be as afraid as Wu Liangyu. A true strong man must first have a firm will and a strong heart, and must face all kinds of setbacks calmly.

With this, the last match of this ranking tournament ended with Wu Liangyu admitting defeat.

Gu Yuan officially became the first disciple of the inner sect.

There was a lot of discussion in the audience and VIP seats.

"It's incredible that Wu Liangyu actually admitted defeat. I thought it would be another fight between dragons and tigers."

"I guess Wu Liangyu is not completely confident and wants to fight him after he enters Bao Yuan Realm. But this Gu Yuan is really powerful. I am afraid that apart from those top-ranked masters of the previous session of the Hidden Dragon List, there are not many people below the middle Bao Yuan Realm who can defeat him."

"That should be it."

At noon that day, Taoist Black Crow and other outer sect elders finally finished ranking the top ten inner sect disciples.

The first place is Gu Yuan who maintains an undefeated record, the second place is Wu Liangyu, the third place is Ling Xue, and the fourth to tenth place are the seven people who have not been eliminated among the original ten inner disciples.

When the rankings were announced, Feitian Demon Sect's leader, Mo Tianxing, laughed heartily, "Now my Feitian Demon Sect has gained another peerless genius."

Many leaders of the forces present clasped their fists and said, "Master Mo, your disciple has comprehended the sword intent at such a young age. In the future, the Feitian Demon Sect will surely rise rapidly and soar to the sky. It is not impossible for it to be promoted to a fifth-grade sect."

"Master Mo, congratulations."

The other powerful people in the Star Realm have their own thoughts, but no matter what they think, the name of Gu Yuandi will become truly famous after today.

He understood the sword intent at the age of fourteen. Not to mention the Nanzhuo Domain, even if he took over the entire Southern Domain Group, he would not be far behind.

The only difference is cultivation.

But this is only relative. After all, how many 14-year-old warriors at the peak of the middle stage of the Condensation Realm are there in the Nanzhuo Region?
Even Sikong Sheng, the eldest disciple of Xuankong Mountain who possesses the blood of a king, is no better than this.

Of course, some people expect Gu Yuan to grow up, while others want to nip him in the bud.

It is easy for them to kill a genius, but if this genius grows up, it will not be easy and it must be done as early as possible.

Fortunately, the Feitian Demon Sect is a sixth-grade sect with several powerful people in the Spirit Sea Realm in charge. Although they thought about it, no one really dared to put it into practice.

Taoist Black Crow slowly stood up, and after asking the sect master for instructions, he awarded the competition rewards to the ten inner disciples. "The inner disciple ranking competition is over, and now the rewards are distributed. Seventh to tenth place will be rewarded with 10,000 lower-grade spirit stones, fourth to sixth place will be rewarded with 20,000 lower-grade spirit stones, second to third place will be rewarded with 30,000 lower-grade spirit stones and a lower-grade treasure, and the first place will be rewarded with 50,000 lower-grade spirit stones and a lower-grade treasure, as well as a high-level earth-level secret book."

"Earth-level high-level secret manuals, tsk tsk, a sixth-grade sect is worthy of being a sixth-grade sect. Our Fenglei Sect only has two earth-level high-level secret manuals in total. Only the sect master, the sect master's successor, and the supreme elders can practice them. Even the core elders are not qualified."

"You are much better than us. We only have one in Yunmeng Mountain, and it is incomplete."

Fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones and a low-grade treasure are nothing to the leaders of these major forces who have reached the Star Realm, but the high-level Earth-level secret book is different.

If they could have a local-level advanced secret book, their strength would undoubtedly increase a lot.

Unfortunately, I can only envy.

For example, a high-level secret book of the Earth Level, even in a sixth-grade sect, is a rare and unique skill. It is the kind that is not passed on to others.

As long as you are not a disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect, you cannot learn it even if you are the son of the sect master.
