On the ring, the old man's offensive became more and more fierce, calling Little Fatty's vitals, and soon compressed his living space to the extreme.

Just when Little Fatty had no retreat and everyone thought he was going to be defeated, Little Fatty's "panicked" round face revealed a cunning look.

He dodged the old man's attack with agility far beyond common sense. Everyone felt their eyes blurred as Mysterious Yellow Triangular Flag appeared in Little Fatty's hands.

He thrust the flag in his hand into the ring.

The next moment, lines like earthworms began to appear on the wide arena. With the triangular flag as the center, these "earthworms" seemed to come alive.

In an instant, illusory chains appeared, wrapping around the old man like Spirit Snake.

"Array?" The old man exclaimed, and the shock on his face could not be concealed. He had obviously always had the initiative. When did the other party arrange such a magic circle under his nose?

Let alone him, most of the people present did not see when this Array was arranged, just those Qi Condensation Cultivators. You must know that there were many Foundation Establishment Cultivators present, but except for Song Changsheng who saw some clues, the rest were kept in the dark.

Among them was Li Siyang who made a bet with Song Changsheng. He just said that Little Fatty would lose, but the result was a slap in the face so quickly.

At this moment, he was also very shocked. He looked to the side Song Changsheng and said, "Young Clan Head has seen it a long time ago?"

Song Changsheng said with a faint smile, "Since the beginning of the competition, this guy has been setting up Array, but his movements are extremely hidden. It seems that he was forced by his opponent to run away in embarrassment, but in fact it was his intention.

He weaved a big net step by step, and then lured his opponents into the urn. His Illusion Technique was performed extremely well, confusing everyone except me, so I had the confidence to gamble with my cousin. "

Although he was talking about this fight, for some reason, Li Siyang felt that Song Changsheng's words meant something, and he gradually became a little flustered as he had something in his heart.

There was some sweat on his forehead unknowingly. He was sure that Song Changsheng must have seen something. Now he was in the Song Clan's lair. If Song Changsheng wanted to attack him, he would not even have room to resist.

Even though he and Song Changsheng are both Foundation Establishment Middle Stage monks, Song Changsheng has a reputation that he has gained through hard work.

Looking at Song Changsheng's smiling face, Li Siyang's heart gradually sank...

Song Changsheng's eyes gradually turned cold, but he made no further moves. After a moment, he turned his eyes to the ring again.

At this moment, Little Fatty relied on the power of Array to defeat the old man like a beast, winning everyone's admiration. The situation changed too quickly.

Little Fatty was quite proud. Amid the cheers of his tribe, he turned his attention to the audience.

At the same time, Song Changsheng was also looking at him, their eyes met. Little Fatty was quite excited. That was the idol he chased and looked up to. He finally made the other party notice him with his own strength!

The memory of a cultivator is naturally not bad. Song Changsheng remembers that many years ago, when he was practicing "Engraving Arrays with the Body", he looked around for Dragon Blood Orchid who had tempered his body.

At that time, he posted a mission on the Contribution Hall, looking for Dragon Blood Orchid, but two people completed the mission, one was Monster Hunting Team Hunter Captain Shangguan Jian, and the other was Little Fatty. He still remembered his name - Song Qinghong.

At that time, his words "idol" shocked Song Changsheng.

Even Song Changsheng didn't expect that Little Fatty would progress so quickly. He was already qualified to compete for [Foundation Establishment Pill] and won his first victory in this way.

He does have some talent with Array, but Song Changsheng is not optimistic about him. As Array Master, Array is his trump card. It was exposed in the first game, which already put others on guard. It will be difficult to repeat the same trick later.

With Song Changsheng's eyesight, it can be seen that Song Qinghong's own combat power can only be regarded as average. Without the help of Array, the chance of winning in the subsequent competition is very small.

But his performance today has proven his talent with Array. Even if he does not enter the top three today, he will be vigorously trained by Lineage in the future, which is not bad. After all, he is still young and still has a chance.

In the next game, there was another acquaintance of Song Changsheng. This person was none other than Song Chang'an, who had fought together in "Wutong Secret Realm".

As the son of Song Luhai, he has not received any care since he was a child, but has stricter requirements.

His talent is not outstanding, but he is very resilient. He is very similar to Xu Yunhe. They are both swordsmen who would rather break than bend.

Compared to a few years ago, his swordsmanship is more proficient. Although it is not as good as that monster Song Qingxing, it is no less than the original Xu Yunhe.

His opponent lasted less than ten rounds under his sword before the winner was decided.

Seeing this scene, Song Luzhou showed a smile on his face and said, "It seems that Changan has not been neglected these years. As expected, he has a place in the top three."

Song Changsheng nodded in agreement. Although Song Chang'an's swordsmanship is not as sharp as Song Qingxing's, the offensive is continuous. There are not many people Song Clan can block, and he has basically locked one [Foundation Establishment Pill] in advance.

Unless a dark horse appears again.

Facts have proved that dark horses like Song Qingxia are rare. This competition lasted for two days, and Song Chang'an won the first place.

The second place is a woman named Song Changxue. She is a member of the Song Luzhou clan. She also studies music and has good strength.

The third place is also from the "old" generation, named Song Changxuan. He is the most talented among them, and he has condensed [Gold-Water Dao Foundation].

As for Song Qinghong, who caused a sensation in the front, he was crushed out in the semi-finals. After all, it takes time to set up a formation, and he was exposed too early, making his opponents wary.

When encountering an opponent with similar strength, he can also arrange Array to counter the enemy. Once the difference is too big, he will be crushed directly.

But overall, Song Changsheng and others are satisfied with the results of the competition.

Now it depends on whether the three of them can seize the opportunity. [Foundation Establishment Pill] is not a panacea, and the success rate of breakthrough after taking it is only half.

With the end of the finals, Song Clan Competition officially came to an end. Although there are only three [Foundation Establishment Pill], there are also many talents who have emerged from this competition.

Song Qingxi, Song Muqing, Song Qingxia, Song Chang'an, Song Qinghong...

A personal name spread, allowing the world to see the true meaning of Ling Province, the first Lineage!

Song Changsheng did not attack Li Siyang after all. He looked at the Li Clan's people leaving and said with a gloomy look, "Li Clan betrayed."

Song Luzhou narrowed his eyes slightly. Li Clan's betrayal had been expected, but when it actually happened, it still made him feel angry. "Lineage has forgiven them once and will never give them a second chance. When uncle breaks through the Purple Mansion, Li Siyang will definitely regret his choice today."

"Li Siyang is not stupid. He knew that Grandfather's injuries were about to recover, but he still chose to betray. This shows that someone must have given him the courage to betray."

A light flashed in Song Luzhou's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Are you doubting Earth Fire Sect?"

"Yes, in the entire Ling Province, there are only two people who are most promising to break through the Purple Mansion, one is Grandfather and the other is Chang Wudao.

Previously when Sunset City was in the Earth Fire Sect, Cheng Yufei had sent Cheng Yufei to participate in the auction and bought a Third-Tier mentality suitable for Chang Wudao. This shows that Chang Wudao is already trying to break through the Purple Mansion. "Song Changsheng cast his gaze in the direction of the Liuyun Mountain Range, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"But, after Cheng Yufei was killed by you, you brought back the mental method. Without the appropriate mental method, does Chang Wudao dare to try to break through?"

Third-Tier's mental method is the key to opening the road to Purple Palace Stage. Without the appropriate mental method, the success rate of breakthrough will be greatly reduced. Song Luzhou does not think that Chang Wudao will have such courage.

Song Changsheng shook his head and said, "Although Earth Fire Sect's background is shallow, it is not difficult to find the right mentality as long as you make up your mind. Didn't you find that Earth Fire Sect was very quiet during this period? This is not in line with their style.

The choice of the Li Clan indirectly proves this point. Lineage needs to be prepared in advance. "

"Why is it so easy to break through the Zi Mansion? Grandpa You will be out of seclusion soon. The family has prepared resources for him to rebuild the Zi Mansion. When he breaks through, the Earth Fire Sect will be destroyed." Song Luzhou said confidently.

Song Changsheng nodded, but the worry in his eyes did not diminish. Chang Wudao was not a simple enemy.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. [Foundation Establishment Pill] I have assigned them to Changan. They will be in retreat soon. Ninth Sister and I and your mother will Protector for them. Lineage's daily affairs will be left to you alone."

Hearing this, Song Changsheng rolled his eyes and said, "It's as if I'm not in charge now."

Song Luzhou is not only a tough guy, but also extremely thick-skinned. Song Changsheng's words were directly filtered by him.

The next day, Song Chang'an, Song Changxue, and Song Changxuan all went into seclusion in secret. Song Luzhou, Song Luyao, and Xia Yunxue became three persons respectively, Protector. The Lineage matter was decided by Song Changsheng...

On the third day after Song Changsheng took sole power over Lineage, Golden Crow Sect Yuanzhou Town Guardian Envoy conveyed the news to Ling Province that he was about to start a war with the Heavenly Meridian Sect.

This news made Song Changsheng's already bad mood even worse. Once Golden Crow Sect and Heavenly Meridian Sect officially start a war, Song Clan, as a vassal, will definitely not be able to escape the call.

It's good to be able to perform meritorious service on the battlefield, but on such a battlefield, Purple Palace Cultivator is the mainstay, and Foundation Establishment Cultivator is just a more advanced cannon fodder.

Let alone Song Changsheng, even Song Xianming has no confidence that he can survive on such a battlefield.

Although no formal recruitment order has been issued yet, Song Changsheng can already predict that it will not be too late.

The top priority is to wake up the sleeping Xia Qingxue as soon as possible. Only she has the chance to prevent this disaster from happening.

After all, the real murderer is Blood Demon, not Heavenly Meridian Sect. No matter who wins or loses in the battle between the two sects, it will only benefit Blood Demon.

The moment he got the news, he was the first to find Song Luzhou. He wanted to know how the refining of [Soul Awakening Pill] was going. More than a month had passed, so it should be almost done.

Song Luzhou immediately realized the seriousness of the matter after hearing this. He did not expect that Golden Crow Sect would start a war with the Heavenly Meridian Sect so soon.

"I entrusted [Soul Awakening Pill] to Master Zhang for refining. The agreement was that it should be within a month, which should be within these days."

Song Changsheng immediately felt relieved after hearing this. The war between the two sects could not be started overnight. As long as Xia Qingxue is awakened and she can tell Golden Crow Sect the truth, there is still hope to prevent this war.

No matter what happens, Song Clan must be removed from this battle. At least Xia Qingxue's life has been saved. This request should not be difficult.

The waiting time was long, but fortunately Master Zhang was on time, and Song Changsheng only had to suffer for five days before someone sent Medicinal Pills over.

After getting Medicinal Pills, Song Changsheng immediately rushed to the room where Xia Qingxue was resting and fed her.

It has to be said that as the most widely used method, [Soul Awakening Pill] is very effective. Xia Qingxue wakes up in less than an hour after taking it.

Facing the unfamiliar environment around her, Xia Qingxue, who had just woken up, was a little confused at first, and then became deeply wary. Her last memory stayed at the moment when Flying Boat was broken.

"Fellow Daoist Xia, you finally woke up!" The moment he saw Xia Qingxue open his eyes, Song Changsheng felt as if a big stone had fallen to the ground.

"It's you." Xia Qingxue was very surprised by the existence of Song Changsheng. She thought she was captured by those people who were hiding their heads and tails, but she didn't expect that the first thing she saw when she woke up was him.

Song Changsheng immediately understood that Xia Qingxue had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "When you were unconscious at the Ling Province border, my tribe found you and brought you back. You were hunted down on the way and suffered heavy losses."

It's not Song Changsheng's style to do good deeds without leaving a name. As Xia Qingxue, he would be sorry for himself if he didn't kill the opponent.

Besides, he wasn't exaggerating. If he hadn't arrived in time, Song Yulong and the others would have been there, including the three [Foundation Establishment Pill].

Xia Qingxue was silent after hearing this, not because she doubted the authenticity of Song Changsheng's words, but because her personality made her unable to face such a thing.

She never thought that one day she would fall to this point.

After a long silence, she said coldly, "I owe you a favor."

Song Changsheng was unfazed by her attitude and shrugged. "Now is not the time to talk about human relationships. You have been in a coma for more than a month. A few days ago, Yuanzhou Town Guardian Envoy sent a message that Golden Crow Sect and Heavenly Meridian Sect declared war.

But I can tell you for sure that the murderer is not Heavenly Meridian Sect. Those who were chasing you were all Blood Demon. They are trying to divert trouble to the east. If you can rush back in time, you may be able to prevent this disaster. "

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Qingxue immediately frowned. She looked at Song Changsheng with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Since you know that the murderer is Blood Demon, why didn't you inform the sect?"

Hearing this, Song Changsheng showed a wry smile on his face...
