Chapter 116 Old Friend

"Bingchenba wins!"

Elder Jin Dan, who was conducting the referee in the sky, saw what was happening on the stage and hurriedly came to Zhou Yiqiao and snatched the old man from his hand.

The old man finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay on the ground coughing continuously, looking extremely embarrassed.

Zhou Yiqiao was not angry when Elder Jindan interrupted him rashly. He took a step back, bowed to the two people in front of him, and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Teachable."

His behavior was meticulous and there was nothing wrong with it. He looked like a handsome young man, with no trace of his previous surly expression.

"Bingchenba, the opponent obviously has no strength to fight anymore, why don't you let go!"

Zhou Yiqiao showed no fear and said neither humble nor overbearing.

"This fellow sect is very powerful, and he was on par with the disciple. The disciple felt like he was fighting for a moment, so he forgot to let go. I hope this junior brother will forgive me."

After saying this, Zhou Yiqiao looked at the old man with a gentle expression, hoping that the other party would accept his kindness.

"Strong words! This person was clearly captured by you, so why don't you say the same thing!"

This Jindan elder was extremely angry and soon attracted the attention of Zhenxuan Chengxuan in the stands.

"Why?"

True Lord Chengxuan led Qing Jimeng and the others to Zhou Yiqiao's side and asked.

"I would like to report to the sect master that this disciple's delusional attempt to kill his fellow sect members who have lost their fighting ability has already caused deep demonic roots. From what I see, he should be imprisoned in the Demonic Suppression Sea for a year to repent and serve as a warning to others."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he frowned and retorted.

"The elder's words are wrong. This disciple and this junior brother are participating in this competition because they want to get a good ranking. Naturally, they will not surrender unless it is absolutely necessary."

"When the opponent doesn't give up, why shouldn't the disciple give his all?"

When Elder Jindan heard what Zhou Yiqiao said, he became even more angry. He opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Zhenjun Chengxuan.

"This disciple is right. Even a lion fighting a rabbit needs to use all his strength. A monk's fight is a matter of life and death, so it is natural to do so."

After saying this, he turned back to look at Qing Jimeng and the others, and asked aloud, after all, the three of them are visitors from the Holy Sect, and their thoughts need to be taken into consideration.

"What are the opinions of the three Holy Sect disciples on this?"

The only male cultivator among the three said

"What Sect Master Chengxuan said is true."

After that, he explained.

"The two senior sisters are not good at words. Don't blame Sect Master Chengxuan."

Seeing that the disciples of the Holy Sect had no objections, Zhenjun Chengxuan waved his hand and made the decision.

"Okay, I declare that Disciple No. 8 Bingchen wins this round. You can return to the cave and wait for the next round of competition tomorrow."

Hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao bowed to the five people present, turned around and fled towards the ring where Yan Shaoyang was.

Because Yan Shaoyang's opponent had not arrived yet, he was still on the ring with his eyes closed and his breathing adjusted.

After Zhou Yiqiao wished him victory, he used the blast sword and returned to Suolongze first.

On the Gale Sword, Zhou Yiqiao frowned and was worried.

This Jindan elder was obviously causing trouble out of nothing. He did not believe that this person, as a high-level executive of the Phoenix Pavilion, would do something so contrary to ordinary people's logic without anyone's instructions.

"Princess Fengxiao..."

Zhou Yiqiao's eyes were as dark as ink, and a murderous intention circulated, which was quickly suppressed by his reason.

This woman has almost the entire Chu State behind her. With his current strength, trying to kill this person without anyone noticing is like flying a moth to a flame.

"In the end, it's still a question of strength."

Zhou Yiqiao murmured to himself. This feeling of being choked by someone made him extremely unhappy. The wind sword under his feet moved three points faster, and returned to Suolongze in less than an hour.

He first entered the training room, replenished the spiritual stones for the three Sky Thunder Spiders, then immediately entered the quiet room, took a spiritual enhancement pill and started today's practice.

In such a world, only the strong can do whatever they want. Foundation-building monks like him can only learn to scheming at all times.

……

It was night, and the spiritual power in his body ended its last cycle and returned to his Dantian. Zhou Yiqiao slowly opened his eyes.

In the storage bag, the jade pendant, which had not made any movement for a long time, once again shone with a familiar light.

The cold voice was like the moonlight at night, flowing out of the jade pendant.

"I see that you have made a lot of enemies in Phoenix Pavilion. Is there anything you need me to help you with?"

Qing Jimeng's sudden words let Zhou Yiqiao know that what happened during the day was not his fault.

He opened his mouth to speak, but then fell silent again.

In the final analysis, the two of them were just casual acquaintances, and it was impossible for Qing Jimeng to destroy the relationship between Qinjian Villa and the Chu State for Zhou Yiqiao.

"It's okay. Thanks to Senior Qing for your relationship, I can handle it alone."

"Congratulations to Senior Qing for being promoted to Jindan. Such outstanding talent is truly the envy of the younger generation."

After thinking about it, Zhou Yiqiao just replied with some scene words.

"I was entrusted by Senior Brother Xu. If you need help with anything, just say it."

Among the jade pendants, Qing Jimeng's voice came again. Zhou Yiqiao looked stunned, and then asked doubtfully.

"Senior Brother Xu?"

Perhaps knowing what Zhou Yiqiao was thinking, Qing Jimeng explained aloud.

"Senior Brother Xu Hanchang, I was a classmate who studied with you at Yaori Zongshan Academy."

"Senior Brother Xu joined the Yaori Sect due to some private matters. You said that he is indeed the external incarnation of Senior Brother Xu. His true identity is the direct disciple of the owner of my Qinjian Villa."

"Senior Brother Xu is proficient in the art of heavenly interpretation. When he was doing fortune telling for me, he saw that you are now in the Chu Kingdom and specifically told me to take care of you."

Qing Jimeng's cold voice rang in his ears, and Zhou Yiqiao was shocked and speechless by the information in his ears.

He calmed down in a hurry before replying through the jade pendant.

"Thank you, Senior Xu, for your concern. If you need help with anything, I'll ask Senior Xiangqing for help next time."

If Qing Jimeng and him were just casual acquaintances, then Xu Hanchang had a more distant relationship. Zhou Yiqiao couldn't figure out the other person's personality, and he didn't dare to touch his nose easily, using this to bully others in the Phoenix Pavilion. .

Perhaps seeing that Zhou Yiqiao had no intention of asking for help, the jade pendant's dim light never came back on after it went out.

Zhou Yiqiao put the Sound Transmission Jade Pendant back into his storage bag, sighed, and turned around to continue his subsequent practice exercises.

It is better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself. The most effective way is to seize every minute to improve your own strength.

The whole night was spent in Zhou Yiqiao's practice.

The next day, amid Yan Shaoyang's call, Zhou Yiqiao opened his eyes, and the two flew together towards the Phoenix Nest, each participating in the second round of the sect competition.
