Chapter 67: Fighting Huyan Zan First

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After some pleasantries, he sent Huyan Lie and the other man off.

Perfected Dan Yang looked at the +5 flying sword and became more and more surprised. “It’s only a flying sword in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but its performance is close to that of a flying sword in the Golden Core Stage. The Scorching Sun Sect’s Heavenly Treasure Refining Technique is really powerful. No wonder Huyan Lie’s magic treasures are so powerful.”

Chi Yao Zhenren agreed.

“Little Cheng, oh, Little Cheng, it’s not that the Sect Master is scolding you,” perfected Dan Yang turned around and returned the flying sword to Cheng Xu, and said with a slight reproach, “How can you tell Huyan Lie the truth about such an important matter?”

Cheng Xu naturally understood Perfected Dan Yang’s thoughts and chuckled. “Don’t worry, Sect Leader. That fairy is very slippery. 1 haven’t seen her true appearance yet. The Scorching Sun Sect will definitely not be able to find her.” “Is that so?” Perfected Dan Yang’s eyes lit up. “That’s good. If we meet her next time, we must think of a way to rope her into our Medicine Celestial Valley.”

“I understand.” Cheng Xu smiled and nodded.

“That’s more like it!” Perfected Dan Yang was satisfied. “Why should the Scorching Sun Sect benefit from such a rare talent?”

The two of them continued to ask Cheng Xu for some details.

Miao Changsheng suddenly knocked on the door and walked in. “Master, are you here? Disciple just met Perfected Luoyue and said that she wanted to invite you to the cave abode to drink tea and discuss Dao.”

“Perfected Luoyue, tea tasting and Dao discussion?”

Cheng Xu and Perfected Dan Yang looked at each other and instantly became interested.

Daoist Chi Yao was confused. “Strange, what is Daoist Luoyue doing?”

“We’re already tasting tea and discussing the Dao. What are you saying?”

“Junior Brother, you’ve been busy refining medicine for so many years. Since Fairy Luoyue is interested, why don’t you go and sit down? It’s best if you can marry her back to the Medicine Celestial Valley.” Perfected Dan Yang said unhappily.

“It can’t be?” Daoist Chi Yao was surprised and delighted. “Fairy Luoyue is interested in a herb basket like me?”

“Who cares if she really likes you? Take advantage of her first.” Perfected Dan Yang urged excitedly.

Cheng Xu and Miao Changsheng were also fanning the flames.

Chi Yao Zhenren blushed. He finally got interested, but it didn’t last long. “Forget it. I’d better go back and study my medicine mantra.”

“Junior Brother, you’re really…” Daoist Dan Yang was speechless.

“Fairy is good, but medicinal knowledge is more interesting.” Daoist Chi Yao said.

Cheng Xu and Miao Changsheng looked at each other helplessly.

Seeing that he couldn’t persuade Perfected Chi Yao, Perfected Dan Yang didn’t stay any longer. After instructing Cheng Xu to have a good rest, he left helplessly.

Only the three of them were left in the room.

“Master, are you really not going to visit Perfected Luoyue? I see that Perfected Luoyue is quite interested in you.” Miao Changsheng asked again.

“I’m not interested in the truth between men and women. I might as well focus on studying my pharmacology.” Chi Yao Zhenren waved his hand disinterestedly and said excitedly, “Recently, Master’s thoughts have been flowing like a fountain. 1 reckon that it won’t be long before the Medicine Mantra succeeds.”

“So fast?” Cheng Xu was surprised.

“Forget it. You still have a competition tomorrow. I’ll explain it to you in detail when I get back.”

After saying that, he left excitedly and continued to study his medicine words.

Miao Changsheng looked at Perfected Chi Yao’s back and sighed helplessly. “Well, it seems that we won’t be able to have a master’s wife in this lifetime.”

“Master has his pursuits. As disciples, we just have to take care of ourselves.”

The next day, the Cloud-treading Peak was overcrowded.

The teams of the various sects had already arrived and were quietly waiting for the finals to arrive.

Tang Xuan and Jian Yuxiang knew that they wouldn’t be able to go far, so the Medicine Celestial Valley’s hopes were placed on Cheng Xu.

“Work harder, Junior Brother Cheng. As long as we can get into the top three, our Medicine Celestial Valley will be able to hold our heads high.” Tang Xuan patted Cheng Xu’s shoulder solemnly and stuffed a jade slip into Cheng Xu’s hand. “This is the information I’ve gathered. It should be useful to you.” “Information? What information?” Cheng Xu was confused.

“Naturally, it’s the information on the top twelve contestants of each sect. I spent a lot of effort to collect this information,” said Tang Xuan with a smile.

Cheng Xu accepted the jade slip in surprise and sent his divine sense into it.

It had to be said that Tang Xuan’s investigation was very detailed. He was just short of digging out the background of the top 12 contestants of each sect.

Every contestant’s family background, cultivation techniques, moves, and magic treasures were recorded in detail.

“Where did Senior get this information?” Cheng Xu asked in surprise.

“I’ve been comparing the geniuses of the various sects all these years, and I’ve been collecting information about them through various channels. Now that Junior Brother Cheng is carrying the flag for the Medicine Celestial Valley, the burden on my shoulders can finally be put down a little.” Tang Xuan smiled.

Cheng Xu silently cupped his fists at Tang Xuan to show his respect.

At least in Cheng Xu’s opinion, Tang Xuan was definitely the best candidate to be the future sect master of the Medicine Celestial Valley.

“Of course, the intelligence inside is not comprehensive. Those people must have kept a lot of trump cards in secret. You must be careful when you face them later, especially Yan Changfeng and the other three.”

“Understood.” Cheng Xu nodded solemnly. “By the way, what are the rules for today’s competition?”

“Two people will draw lots to fight. The competitors from the same sect will avoid the battle and will be ranked according to the winner.”

Cheng Xu understood. “So we can only draw opponents from the other four sects?”

To put it simply, other than the players from the same sect, all the other players had to fight once.

“That’s right.” Tang Xuan nodded. “Jian Yunxiang and I are in a tough spot. We still have a chance against those in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Once we meet Yan Changfeng and the others, there’s basically no hope.”

As they spoke, the drawing of lots for the top 12 had already begun.

After Fu Yunzi finished his speech, he waved his sleeves and released twelve light balls with the names of the twelve contestants. They hovered above the arena and the sects took turns drawing lots according to the rankings of the last Martial Competition.

The Medicine Celestial Valley didn’t participate in the last competition, so they were the last to draw lots.

On the Cloud Sect’s battle waiting area, Yan Changfeng stood up amidst the cheers of his fellow disciples. He soared into the air and grabbed a ball of light.

The opponent’s name, Wang Xiaolun, gradually condensed on the surface of the ball of light.

The moment he saw his name, Wang Xiaolun’s face instantly darkened. “D*mn, do 1 have to be so unlucky?”

“Cough cough.” On the stage, the Cloud Master cleared his throat and said, “May the contestants from both sides please come on stage.”

“No, no, no, I admit defeat!”

Wang Xiaolun was quite happy and directly raised his hand at Fu Yunzi to express his surrender.

The people from the Scorching Sun Sect could understand that. After all, Wang Xiaolun was obviously no match for Yan Changfeng.

Fu Yunzi didn’t waste any time. After scoring a point for Yan Changfeng, he turned to look at the Scorching Sun Sect’s team. “May the Scorching Sun Sect’s contestants draw lots for the second round?”

Huyan Zan stretched his muscles and bones. With a domineering posture, he drew a ball of light.

The opponent’s name slowly appeared, [Cheng Xu].

The crowd was stunned at first, then they burst into heated discussions and anticipation.

“This…”

Huyan Zan was somewhat speechless. He had drawn Cheng Xu right away. Wasn’t this testing the waters for the others?

As for the other three Heaven’s Favorites, they were naturally very happy to see this outcome.

“Brother Huyan, you can do it! We all think highly of you!” Liu Qiao of Shenluo Hall gloated.

Huyan Zan rolled his eyes at Liu Qiao and went to the opposite platform while cursing.

On the Medicine Celestial Valley side, although Cheng Xu was a little surprised, he was fearless.

“Junior brother, be careful. Huyan Zan is considered half a body cultivator.” Tang Xuan reminded him in a low voice.

Cheng Xu nodded slightly and flew up the stage.

The audience was filled with anticipation for this match..
