Meanwhile after walking for some time, Han Li and the others were also seen buying some items they needed, while Ling Yan, the, he appears to have bought a yellow battle technique scroll because of the eternal flame that sent him.
Actually he was a little confused as to why the eternal flame told him to buy the scroll, but he did not ask further and decided to check it out after the fight later.
Shortly after, a very clear voice using deep power techniques sounded from the seat of sect head Zhao Zhang who announced that the battle of match practice was about to begin.
"For all the sect disciples that have gathered, the sect ranking battle will begin soon, and for the first fight, I give the outer disciples the opportunity to challenge their opponents who are from the inner disciples.
The rules are the same as usual, if the outer disciple successfully defeats the inner disciple he is challenging, then he is entitled to rise in level and become an inner disciple while shifting the position of the disciple he successfully defeated, then he has the right to rise in rank and become an inner disciple, in addition, he will also get some rewards in the form of an elite quality sword and 3 grains of power-enhancing pills in level 2.
Meanwhile, if he did not win, then the inner disciple who managed to win the match would get 3 grains of power-enhancing pills in level 3." Zhao Zhang was clear from the stage.
The disciples who heard that immediately shouted excitedly especially the outer disciples, as the resource reward they would get this time became a level higher than the previous year.
"This is an opportunity for me, last year even the reward was only 3 grains of power-enhancing pills in tier 1, I should be able to defeat the disciple I will challenge later." Determination of one of the outer disciples.
"Alright, for the outer disciples who want to challenge their seniors, please separate and take the sequence number over there, please, while those who will not do the challenge please separate from the place where the students who will be the challengers." Shouted Zhao Zhang again.
After his words, the disciples who would not do the challenge were seen separating including Ling Yan's fellows who were inner disciples and core disciples.
"Sister Ling Yan, spirit." Said Xui with burning eyes.
While Ling Yan who was looking at it only smiled warmly while answering.
"No problem, leave it to me." Ling Yan replied casually.
While the other 2 girls, Ling Mei and Zhu Qing, who saw the closeness of the two of them, became envious and inward.
"If only I could be like Xui who is very close to Ling Yan's brother."
Out of the 1500 thousand sword sect outer disciples, it was seen that the outer disciples who would challenge their opponents from the inner disciples were only about 20 disciples out of the 1500 outer disciples.
This was actually quite reasonable considering the current strength levels of the average outer disciples only had the strength of silver and gold warriors.
Then the twenty disciples who would challenge the inner disciples were all on average only at the 3-star to 7-star gold level and only Ling Yan was a senior swordsman among them.
Had it been for the other elders besides Yan Shiki and Shen Yu to know that Ling Yan had strength above them, perhaps the elders would vomit blood because their strength was even below the strength of an outer disciple.
The twenty outer disciples had finally finished taking out their respective no sequence, and Shuyang who was also one of the challenger disciples had obtained the first no sequence battle.
"I don't think you're going to raise your rank." Said Ling Yan who was just aware of Shuyang's presence there.
"Hehe thanks to the mission points I obtained, I used them all to train inside the tower and managed to raise my strength to 3-star gold level,
"Hehehe then quickly ascended to the top of the arena, and defeated one of the inner disciples." Ling Yan patted Shuyang on the shoulder before he now leaped onto the arena.
"Give it to me." Shuyang then stood in the middle of the arena and gazed towards the ranks of the inner disciples who were standing in front of the arena.
Actually near the tower of a thousand swords there are 4 different arenas and in one fight, there will be 4 students who will fight for the first time.
Gao Lang who happened to be the referee in the Shuyang fight now jumped on the arena and asked the young man before him.
"Alright disciple Shuyang, among the inner disciples who are here, you will challenge who." Gao Lang asked Shuyang, while the same thing happened to the other three students who were also going to do the match.
Of a thousand disciples in his own, the 500 lower ranked disciples among those disciples on average possessed the strength of a 3-star gold swordsman and what distinguished their strength was only the fighting experience as well as the fighting techniques they possessed.
While for the 400 disciples who were in the middle rank were divided into several levels from the peak of the golden swordsman, to the 4-star gold level.
And for disciples in rank 100 and above a small portion had the peak strength of gold swordsmen and most were already at the diamond level.
Shuyang who knew the level of his opponent candidates was also seen thinking for a moment in his heart.
"If I challenge a disciple whose strength is on par with mine, then perhaps the elders won't care too much about the abilities I have, either, maybe I should work a little hard to defeat a disciple whose strength is above mine." Inner Shuyang.
Shuyang who finished thinking finally decided to challenge one of the middle ranked disciples who had the strength of a 5-star golden swordsman named Wen Kuo.
"Senior Wen Kuo ranked 407th disciple within, please guide him." Said Shuyang while clenching his hands.
Of course after saying that many sect disciples and elders were surprised by Shuyang's courage and Gao Lang was no exception.
"Shuyang, Wen Kuo currently has the strength of a 5-star gold swordsman, are you confident in your decision to challenge him." asked Gao Lang.
"I'm very confident in my decision of elder Gao, after all if I challenge a disciple whose strength is equal to mine, then I won't get a lesson that can improve the fighting ability that I have in the future." Shuyang replied sure.
Ling Yan who understood the path of Shuyang's mind only smiled faintly while being inward.
"His desire to become stronger seemed to rise after yesterday's first mission that almost left him dead.
Meanwhile in another place, the disciples who saw Shuyang's actions which they considered to be quite rash immediately threw scorn and unpleasant whispers from their respective mouths.
"Hahahaha if he is crazy, he chooses an opponent who is even 2 levels higher than his level, this is tantamount to death." Said one of the outer disciples who was not far away from Zhu Qing and the others.
"It seems like he didn't think before challenging Wen Kuo, however the difference of 2 levels was quite far away." Greet a student nearby.
