Soul Immortal

Eve Of The Trials [I]

"Brother, what you said is right. However, since you are here for this selection, I am afraid I can only sigh in despair." Lynn also found an opportunity to speak up.

The female disciple who had just spoken continued, "Junior Brother Chan is too modest. As far as I know, when you entered the mountain gate, you were still a mortal without any magical power. In just a few years, you have already practiced the skills to the middle stage of the tenth level of Qi training, which shows that you have outstanding aptitude."

Speaking of qualifications, the girl seemed to realize something all of a sudden, and stopped talking abruptly, and then a trace of guilt flashed across her face.

Lynn didn't take it seriously and continued, "Senior sister, you are too kind. I am not very knowledgeable and talented, and it is really difficult for me to compete with you senior brothers and sisters."

"Junior brother, there is no need to be modest. When it comes to advancing to the top 40, we senior brothers and sisters are not very confident. However, as far as I know, there are indeed several senior brothers and sisters in the sect who have profound cultivation. We are far behind them." At this time, a young man saw that the girl had let the cat out of the bag and hurriedly changed the subject.

"There are quite a few low-level disciples with high cultivation levels in our sect, but as far as I know, Senior Brother Tangu and Senior Brother Chenlu are probably the best among all the disciples." At this time, a disciple who seldom spoke said, and it was obvious that all the disciples became interested when he mentioned the profound cultivation levels.

"Indeed, as far as Qi training disciples are concerned, Senior Brother Chen and Senior Brother Tang are indeed disciples with profound cultivation. Moreover, not only are they profound in cultivation, they also have a large number of high-level magical instruments."

Lynn was naturally very interested in these things. The more he knew about his opponent, the more hope he had of winning the game. However, Lynn had only been a disciple for too short a time and did not know much about the disciples in the Qi Refining Stage.

This discussion gave him a general understanding of the strength of the disciples in the sect. It is said that there are thousands of Qi Refining disciples in the sect, but there are only more than 20 people who have truly reached the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining, and these people are only one step away from breaking through.

Of course, these fellow disciples also discussed the strength of these disciples and the magical instruments they used, etc. Lynn kept all of these in mind.

According to the fellow disciples in the sect, the one with the greatest hope this time is not among those at the peak of the Qi Refining Stage, but a female disciple named Hanyu who is at the eleventh level of cultivation.

It is said that Hanyu is a distant niece of Elder Han in the sect. Although her martial arts skills have only reached the eleventh level, she is deeply loved by Elder Han. Under Elder Han's care, she has cultivated her martial arts skills to the eleventh level within less than two years after entering the sect. At the same time, she also has a large number of powerful magical instruments on her.

Lynn heard his fellow apprentices say this, and he had a deep impression of Hanyu. He prayed in his heart that he would never meet such a powerful opponent in the competition. After Lynn understood the strength of the low-level disciples in the sect, he also had a deeper understanding of his own shortcomings in cultivation.

After all, those participating in the competition are all low-level disciples in the sect, and regardless of whether they have profound cultivation or not, they are all competing on the same stage, so those with profound cultivation will naturally gain face.

Thinking of this, Lynn thought to himself: "It seems that if we want to enter the top 40, improving our strength is the first priority now."

Thinking of this, Lynn immediately decided to seize the time and made up his mind to break through the eleventh level before the competition began, so that he would not be too far behind in the competition.

But on second thought, although the skills cannot be neglected, the use of magic weapons must also be coordinated well. Not to mention the magic weapon that he first learned, a low-level magic weapon is of no use in front of such a master. However, the small flag and the flying knife that the great elder rewarded him later can be coordinated well.

Thinking of this, Lynn said goodbye to his senior brothers and sisters and said, "My senior brothers and sisters, you guys continue to chat. I still have some homework to finish, so I will go back first." After that, he bowed to everyone and went to his room.

According to Lynn's plan, he would practice martial arts during the day and find a remote place to practice the use of magical instruments at night.

A few days passed like this. Although Lynn did not break through the eleventh level in his martial arts, he made great progress in the use of the two magic weapons. First of all, the flag was a magic weapon with wind attribute. Once this magic weapon was sacrificed, a cold wind would howl with great power. 

Moreover, the little dragon in front could also spit out cold wind from its mouth, which could be used for attacking the enemy or defending. This made Lynn very satisfied.

The flying knife, on the other hand, moved silently. Lynn had not expected that these two completely unrelated magical weapons could work together so perfectly. Thinking of this, he became secretly excited.

However, despite this, he did not dare to be lazy. He still set out as soon as dark every day to practice on a flat ground dozens of miles south of Yuetian Mountain.

On this day, eight days had passed since the day he was notified. Lynn came to the familiar flat ground as usual, ready to practice the tactics of using magic weapons. However, when he released his divine sense to explore, he suddenly said in his heart: "Not good."

It turned out that as soon as he released his divine sense, he found that two people were coming in this direction. Lynn realized that the two people's cultivation was higher than his, so he quickly retracted his divine sense and hid among a pile of rocks on the edge of the flat ground.

He thought anxiously, "Judging from the auras emitted by the two men, their cultivation is higher than mine, but fortunately, they didn't even notice me."
