Chapter 118 Variables For the next two days, He Qing basically just went to the martial arts arena to report for duty and then left. It was not until the last day when the results were decided that He Qing sat obediently in the stands. At present, among all the immortal sects participating in the meeting, the only ones that have not taken action are Tianxuan Mountain and Guanghan Sect. After a few rounds of small-scale fights, one of the groups of disciples that Yuntian favored came on the field. Just as Yuntian had expected, in just a few moves they eliminated all the candidates from Tianxuan Mountain, including Qiao Nan and Xu Gaizhi, until only two groups were left. It was not until Guanyue’s two junior brothers came on the field that this one-sided suppression was broken. Guanyue's two junior brothers also used the first section of the Lingxiao Double Sword Technique, but they had obviously comprehended it more thoroughly and cooperated more tacitly. In less than ten moves, they had defeated the second seed of Guanghan Sect. This was the first time that everyone had seen the power of the ancient sword manual in all the days of the conference. In addition to admiring it, many immortal sects had even begun to record it on the spot, hoping to learn a few moves from it. After the second seed left the court, Yuntian's attitude obviously changed. He sat upright and motioned for the first seed to come on stage. One of the disciples among the number one seed looked to be in his early thirties, and his cultivation was around the Spirit Severing stage. The other one was even younger, with his cultivation just past the Golden Core stage. He looked sloppy, as if he had not woken up yet, and had a tattered large gourd hanging around his waist. Although Yuntian looked rough, he actually had a trick up his sleeve. This young disciple did not even show up during the "talent show" that day. The battle started. Guan Yue watched for a while before calling Hua Chiyu and Gu Changnian through voice transmission, saying in a low voice, "The situations of these two are somewhat similar to yours. They are both guided by someone with a higher level of cultivation. If you have the chance to fight against them, you should work together to focus on that young man."
Hua Chiyu looked at the fighting situation on the martial arts stage and said anxiously, "Disciple, it seems that the two uncles are doing it with ease." Guan Yue smiled at her reassuringly: "Just in case." Then he looked at He Qing: "Do you have anything to tell me?" He Qing frowned slightly, staring at the four people fighting on the stage, secretly comparing the plot with the book in his heart - The book says that Gu Changnian and Hua Chiyu had almost no rivals in the Immortal Gate Conference. The only ones who were hard to tell who was better were a pair from the Guanghan Sect, one in the Spirit Severing Stage and the other in the Fusion Stage. Due to the huge gap in strength and the lack of tacit understanding between the two opponents, Gu Changnian and his team were at a disadvantage several times and finally won with difficulty. But now He Qing looked at it and vaguely felt that something was not right. Although the supporting characters in the book have no names, it is obviously not the young man on the field, so the plot has changed again... "He Qing?" Guan Yue called again. He Qing came back to his senses and said silently: "I don't have anything to tell you." He Qing thought, if his intuition was correct, that young man was a variable. If Yun Tian dared to put him in the seed team, it would definitely not be as simple as a breakthrough. Let's wait and see. After all, it is a conference of immortals. Even if Gu Changnian loses, his life will not be in danger. On the martial arts stage, the two people from Tianxuan Mountain also regarded the young man as a fatal wound. They only blocked and defended against the attacks from the Guanghan Sect's distraction stage disciple, and all their attacks were directed towards the young man. Seeing that the Guanghan Sect's group was gradually losing, the Spiritual Severing Stage disciple shouted, "Wang You!" The young disciple named Wang You suddenly jumped up, picked up the big gourd and said, "Master, can I drink it?" Wang You's master tried his best to move closer to prevent the two people from Tianxuan Mountain from interfering with Wang You, and said with difficulty: "One sip!" "Okay!" Wang You instantly smiled when he heard the words, pulled out the cork and took a big gulp, and said happily: "Okay, okay!" After drinking the contents of the gourd, Wang You's aura suddenly changed, and the spiritual energy in his body surged to the point of being visible to the naked eye. He put away the gourd, jumped down from the air with a sword in his hand, and sword energy was radiating everywhere. With the cooperation of master and disciple, they defeated the people from Tianxuan Mountain within ten moves. The whole audience was shocked. Wang You chuckled, tucked the sword under his armpit, and picked up the wine flask to take another sip, but was stopped by his master beside him: "Don't drink anymore, stop drinking." A sect leader on the stands used magic to increase his voice and said, "Sect Leader Xuanqing, I don't know what kind of external force this Guanghan Sect disciple borrowed. Could this be considered a winner?" Without waiting for Xuan Qingzi to express his opinion, Yun Tian stood up and replied: "You misunderstood. There is no 'external force' in the gourd. It is just a pot of wine. To be honest, my disciple specializes in practicing the Drunken Sword. He needs to drink to exert his strength."
Wine? He Qing frowned slightly. (We even have sword techniques that require you to be drunk to practice.) Thinking of what Yuntian said a few days ago, He Qing suddenly realized. At that time, she thought that Yuntian said this to trick her in order to get her to drink with him. It turns out that there really is a Drunken Sword? At Yuntian's signal, Wang You once again pulled out the cork and used his spiritual power to stimulate the aroma of the wine to spread. This time, everyone could smell the aroma of the wine with a hint of osmanthus. Yun Tian said loudly: "If you don't believe me, if anyone has good wine to offer, I, as a disciple, can make do with it." No one said anything else. But in order to create unnecessary suspicion, Xuan Qingzi took advantage of the pause for breathing and ordered someone to bring a jar of wine and replace the big gourd on Wang You's waist with a "medium gourd". When pouring the wine, Wang You, who was standing by, was drooling at the aroma of the wine. He said to his master excitedly, "Master, this is better than my osmanthus wine!" The heartless look of the drunkard dispelled some people's doubts and even caused bursts of laughter. Guan Yue's face was solemn, and he immediately sent a message to Gu Changnian and Hua Chiyu: "We need to change our tactics." ■ After the pause, Master Wang You and his apprentice stood back on the martial arts stage. They were fighting against Gu Changnian and Hua Chiyu, who were also the last group of people on both sides. The winner would be the champion of this Immortal Gate Conference. After greeting each other, the battle began. Gu Changnian and the other person did not use the first section of the Lingxiao Double Sword Technique. Hua Chiyu used the Tianxuanshan sword technique, which was the sword technique she was most familiar with and most confident in, while Gu Changnian used the Tianxin Technique. He Qing whispered to Guan Yue, "Was this your idea?" Guan Yue said, "That Jindan disciple should not be underestimated. His master is even better than Chang Nian. They have seen the Lingxiao Dual Sword Technique and should know how to deal with it. Let Chi Yu and Chang Nian use their own skills, and maybe they can achieve a surprise victory." "Having said that..." He Qing looked at Hua Chiyu whose meditation was interrupted several times and kept the cold words in his stomach. Guan Yue sighed: "Now, we can only hope that the two of them will have a perfect understanding." (End of this chapter)
