Cultivation begins with planting techniques

"This……"

The expressions of the disciples waiting to watch the show froze, and many of them couldn't even control their expressions and looked dazed for a moment.

It's not like they haven't seen swordsmen with strong fighting power who easily win the fight at the beginning.

Just now, similar news came from many arenas on the mountains, and people talked about it with great interest.

But on this Tianjian Sect's sword fighting stage, someone would actually use a wooden stick to perform sword techniques, even knocking their opponent over with a single blow...

They had never seen such a scene before!
In particular, it was clear that Li Ye was not very skilled when he performed the sword technique. Even though they attacked at the same time, he was unable to really block Zhong Hui's attack.

He just managed to dodge by rolling on the ground in a panic, and even his hair and clothes seemed to be partially lifted up and damaged.

But Zhong Hui was extremely stupid and underestimated his enemy. He was only concerned with hurting the enemy without any preparation for protection or dodging.

Li Ye seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and knocked him unconscious with a stick.

Given the physique of a Juyuan cultivator, such a fragile situation should not happen.

But Li Ye's kicks and sticks were so powerful that even some people watching from below were frightened.

I don't know if he was born with supernatural powers, or if he has some physical training...

Zhong Hui had already fallen, but Li Ye seemed to have not reacted yet and pretended to chase him.

He rushed forward two steps with the stick in hand, only to realize that the opponent had no strength to resist, and even his flying sword fell to the ground midway.

He looked confused and stood there with the wooden stick.

"I...does this count as a win?"

Even after winning, they still didn't seem to understand the situation. Even the deacons and disciples had strange expressions.

However, he did not delay and spoke directly:

"Li Ye wins and advances to the next level."

As soon as the announcement was made, someone came forward to carry the unconscious Zhong Hui down and clean up his broken teeth that had fallen on the ring.

Li Ye followed him off the stage.

Some people looked at his blood-stained wooden stick and felt a slight toothache for some reason.

Where on earth did this guy come from...

As they thought about it, they turned their gazes to the unconscious Zhong Hui with a mixture of mockery and pity.

Being knocked over by a wooden stick on the sword fighting stage, this kid is destined to become famous for losing in such a way!
With the emergence of this precedent, some disciples who had already lost the sword fight and were only here to watch the excitement couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation in their hearts.

I wonder how far Li Ye can go in a sword fight with this stick...

It would be interesting to witness more victims!

With this thought in mind, they followed Li Ye directly to the next floor.

immediately……

They saw him struggling to defend himself from the attack of another Juyuan Sixth Level disciple, and finally losing the sword fight with a sword at his neck.

That's it? !
Their expectations were dashed and they cursed inwardly.

Sure enough, I was overthinking it. The fact that this weirdo could win a game was just luck!
Feeling foolish for their naive thoughts just now, they didn't even look at Li Ye again and left.

"Winning the last game is just perfect..."

After getting off the sword fighting arena, Li Ye walked down the mountain with a faint smile on his face.

He did notice those people's expectation of having fun.

If he had not planned to bide his time and practice cultivation, with his current accumulation, he could really charge forward with a stick in hand, knocking down talented disciples one by one in front of everyone, leaving behind a good story.

But since he had planned to keep a low profile, he could pretend to be lucky and give Zhong Hui a hard time. Winning the previous match would be enough. Otherwise, if he continued with this style, he might actually attract the attention of the Yuandan Elder if he moved up two levels.

This is really unnecessary!
"Cheng Linjue won another match... He defeated his opponent with a single strike. The other opponents on the same mountain can hardly keep up with his advancement speed..."

On the way down the mountain, Li Ye listened with great interest to the discussions of the disciples passing by.

Well... With people like this emerging one after another, his achievements will probably soon no longer be taken seriously and will not attract much attention.

That's pretty good!

Thinking in a good mood, Li Ye quickened his pace a bit.

I fought two matches in the arena, which took up some time. It’s time to go back and take care of the spiritual field!

………………

Although Li Ye's performance in the arena was a bit strange, it only caused a slight ripple in the entire sect's sword fight, which was quickly covered up by the achievements of other disciples who won all the way.

In addition to Zhong Hui, who was remembered by many people, he was knocked unconscious by his opponent's stick in the first sword fight because he underestimated his opponent, and even several of his teeth were knocked out.

The disciples who still remembered the sword fight had a vague impression of who did it.

To some extent, this is also the benefit of Li Ye rarely showing up in public and just working diligently in the spiritual medicine garden.

As the battle became more intense, disciples emerged one after another, and the top ten were finally decided.

Cheng Linjue, who had attracted much attention from the very beginning, reached the top in one fell swoop.

This grand event held once every ten years came to an end with the disciples either sighing with regret or feeling proud and satisfied.

…………

"Qingling Pill, it's pretty good..."

Walking out of the bustling and crowded chores hall, Li Ye, who had received the reward of being promoted to a higher level, held the jade bottle in his hand, his eyes thoughtful.

Due to the limitations of the world's conditions, the elixirs in this world are somewhat different from those in the human world.

Refining elixirs not only requires harmonizing the medicinal properties themselves, but also eliminating impurities as much as possible to avoid elixir poisoning.

It is also necessary to eliminate the turbid and impure air contained in the spiritual object as much as possible during this process.

The quality of the pills made in this way will naturally be lower, and the standards for evaluating the grade will also change.

For example, although the Qingling Pill is a pill suitable for cultivators in the middle stage of Juyuan, in Li Ye's opinion, although its medicinal power is strong, in terms of purity, it may not be as good as the first-grade low-grade pills in the human world.

However, this thing itself is not taken directly by cultivators, but is handed over to the spirit to digest, or contained in the demon seed and then gradually refined.

It can also be considered a qualified elixir.

As for Li Ye.

His actual cultivation level has now reached the seventh level of Ju Yuan, so this thing has limited effect on him, but he is planning to use it to feed the two little guys directly.

The same applies when they grow up and give feedback.

Li Ye casually put away the jade bottle and took a few steps when he felt someone looking at him.

With a quick glance, he saw the two brothers Zhong Hui and Zhong Jie looking at him from afar.

Zhong Hui gritted his teeth. Although the swelling on his face had subsided, there was still a slight depression. He didn't even dare to open his mouth. It was probably because the missing teeth had not been replaced yet.

Li Ye couldn't help but smile when he saw the guy's defeated look.

When Zhong Hui saw this, he felt it was a naked mockery, and his eyes turned bloodshot.

Just as he was about to step forward to stop Li Ye and challenge him to a life-or-death battle, a hand suddenly fell on his shoulder and held him down. (End of this chapter)
