Chapter 577 Challenge
After listening to Xiao Qinghao's explanation attentively, Qin Fengming fully understood the Xiao Clan Competition. I am also very impressed with this kind of competition.
In this way, even if the quotas are distributed fairly, the losing clan members will not be too embarrassed. At the same time, it also inspired the enthusiasm for cultivation among tribesmen everywhere. This triple achievement shows the extremely high wisdom of the top brass of the Xiao clan.
From Xiao Qinghao's words, Qin Fengming also knew that the Xiao family on Honghu Island had failed to achieve any gains for three consecutive years.
The purpose of wooing Qin Fengming this time is to help Honghu Island, so that his family can gain something in this competition, so that some of his clan members can enter the core of the Xiao family and receive special training.
As for the people on the high platform here, Qin Fengming also knew at this time that these people were all members of the Xiao branch who were going to participate in the competition. Looking at so many family branches, each family had a member of the Xiao family who was a monk. , Qin Fengming also sighed in his heart.
If any branch of the Xiao clan enters the land of Quzhou, with the power of their clan, they may unify the entire Quzhou immortal world.
Such a powerful cultivating family, if placed within the Yuanfeng Empire, would only be equivalent to a slightly inferior first-class sect. From this alone, we can see how profound the foundation of immortality cultivation is in the huge Yuanfeng Empire.
Just when Qin Fengming was filled with emotions, a sixty or seventy-year-old monk jumped up from another high platform and was suspended in the sky. He did not show any spiritual energy fluctuations on his body. It goes without saying that this monk must be an elder of the Xiao clan in the infant stage.
I saw this old man standing in the air, scanning the people on the high platform where Qin Fengming was, coughed slightly, and said loudly:
"Members of the Xiao family, please stop talking with all the fellow Taoists who have come to watch the ceremony, and please listen to what I have to say."
Although the sound was not very loud, it was like thunder when it reached the ears of everyone sitting there. The low-level monks hurriedly used their spiritual power to suppress the discomfort caused by the sound.
"I, Xiao Haitao, as an elder of the Xiao clan, I will preside over this Xiao clan competition that takes place every fifty years. First of all, on behalf of the Xiao clan in Qianhuzhou, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all the comrades who came to watch the ceremony."
Following his words, thunderous applause erupted from the scene.
When the applause gradually subsided, the old man standing in the air spoke again: "The rules for this competition are the same as before. Participants must be monks below the level of Chengdan. Each tribe can have three people, and one of them can have a foreign surname. Monk.”
"During the competition, except for the use of magic weapons and high-level offensive talismans with extremely powerful one-time power, any method can be used. However, this is not a life-and-death duel, both sides must point to it."
"Each tribe has two opportunities to challenge. Each time only three members of one side fail, and the competition is over. Okay, I won't say any more. Please go to the respective high platforms and wait for the tribesmen who obtained the level last time. Accept the challenge from other tribesmen.”
The old man paused three times before he could finish what he meant. Although everyone in each tribe already knew the rules of the competition, they still described them in detail.
As soon as he finished speaking, his body moved and fell back to its original place.
Following the old man's words, many monks immediately stood up on the high platform where Qin Fengming was standing and flew towards dozens of high platforms below.
It was only time to burn the incense sticks, and there were three monks standing on all the high platforms in front of them.
Seeing this, dozens of monks leaped out from the high platform where the Huaying cultivator was, and in a flash, they all landed on the stone platforms below.
I saw that these monks were all monks in the Chengdan stage. It goes without saying that these monks are undoubtedly the monks who presided over the competitions on various high platforms. With these Chengdan monks on hand, even if some accidents occur, they can provide timely assistance.
Looking at the dozens of high platforms in front of him, Xiao Qinghao's eyes flashed with light, but there was a faint smile on his face.
The whole person seemed very calm.
Ever since he saw the monk surnamed Wei next to him take action, he already knew that as long as this monk used all his strength, there were very few people who could defeat him within the range of the foundation-building monks.
Within the time it took to hold the incense stick, no one from the Xiao family branch stepped forward to challenge him.
Everyone only had two opportunities to challenge, and they all wanted to see how strong the other tribesmen were before deciding to challenge that tribe.
There is no time limit for the Xiao Clan's competition, so everyone is extremely cautious, and no one wants to expose their own strength first.
The three monks on the stone platform in front were all standing at first. Later, they all sat cross-legged on the stone platform, closed their eyes slightly, and began to meditate.
The people of the Xiao family standing under the stone platform and watching the battle were talking to each other in small groups. At the same time, they seemed to be judging the overall strength of each tribe with their fingers pointing, but the scene did not seem very depressing.
As for the monks who came to watch the ceremony on another high platform, no one paid attention to this kind of competition. They came here just to give face to the Xiao clan. Some of them even carry spiritual herbs with them, and they want the Xiao clan to help them refine the spiritual elixir. Although they don't care about this kind of competition, they don't have much interest.
As time passed slowly, less than half an hour later, some members of the tribe finally stopped waiting. Some monks stood up and launched themselves towards the second row of stone platforms below.
Although Qin Fengming didn't pay too much attention to the competition between the foundation-building monks, under the Xiao clan's competition rules, he couldn't help but pay more attention to the competition between the monks.
Seeing that someone finally set out to challenge, the people watching the battle immediately became energetic, and their eyes turned to the stone platform where the monk landed.
"It is Panyue Lake that challenges Jingbo Lake."
"Jingbo Lake was the winner of the second-class clan last time. Fanyue Lake actually challenged him for the first time. It seems that he has made sufficient preparations this time."
"The monks who came to Jingbo Lake to participate in the competition this time are the same as last time. If Fanyue Lake wants to win, it will be very difficult to win."
As everyone started talking, a huge transparent wall covering an area of a hundred feet appeared in front of everyone under the flash of glow on the high platform.
This is exactly the protective shield set up by the senior officials of the Xiao clan to protect everyone watching.
With this cover, the activity range of the two fighting monks can be limited, and the surrounding scenery can also be protected.
At this time, there were already two old men standing opposite each other with cautious expressions on their faces inside the shield. Under the wave of the old man Cheng Dan who was presiding over the competition, the two of them used their own methods to start the battle for the spot.
