Li Xiuchang looked around on the Immortal Cloud floor boat and marveled at the exquisiteness and luxury in the details from time to time, as if he had never seen the world before.
Not only him, but also the other Immortal Dust Sect inner disciples who boarded the ship. Exclamations came from all over the ship from time to time.
Only Zhang Wanzhi looked uninterested.
After the novelty wore off, Li Xiuchang found an empty room and euphemistically called it "breakthrough in retreat."
Zhang Wanzhi was called to class by Elder Liu.
Two or three days later, a wave of spiritual energy came from the room where Li Xiuchang was retreating, and then Li Xiuchang named "Foundation Establishment Middle Stage" walked out of the room.
He is upgrading the surface Cultivation Level to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, which is closer to his actual Cultivation Level Foundation Establishment Peak.
In this way, when fighting with others, it will be harder for others to see the real Cultivation Level.
The difference between Foundation Establishment Middle Stage and Foundation Establishment Peak is not big. The purity of Li Xiuchang's mana has always been far higher than that of the same level. Coupled with the cover of "Dantian Shadow Creation Technique", it can basically fool him.
The surface Cultivation Level of Foundation Establishment Middle Stage is already the limit of Li Xiuchang. It is impossible for him to reveal Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivation Level before he is forty years old, otherwise he will enter the inner door.
After Li Xiuchang came out of quarantine, he found Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi and found that Senior Brother Zhang looked a little haggard.
"Senior brother, you look like you are not in good spirits?" Li Xiuchang asked in confusion.
"I've had too many classes and I'm tired." Zhang Wanzhi said.
After only a few days of classes, can Senior Brother Zhang be exhausted?
Li Xiuchang doesn't believe it.
Most likely Zhang Wanzhi pretended to be tired in order to avoid going to class.
"There are still two days to go, why don't we go play chess?" Li Xiuchang suggested.
"Great idea!"
The two found a place to play chess. Li Xiuchang already knew the rules and started playing backgammon directly.
After dozens of rounds, Li Xiuchang successfully connected five pieces in a row.
"I won!"
"Win for what?"
"The five sons are in a row."
"We play Go and backgammon with people like Mo Tu who are not good at chess."
Go?
Then why are you blocking both ends of my chess pieces?
Senior Brother Mo likes to use off-board moves, but Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi just plays bad.
Li Xiuchang sees through the situation but doesn't reveal it, changes his approach, and continues to play against Zhang Wanzhi.
A quarter of an hour later...
"Master told me to go to class. Let's go to another day."
Zhang Wanzhi stood up and left the table in a hurry.
"Senior Brother Zhang's chess skills are not even as good as Senior Brother Mo's, but it's not too far behind."
Two stinky Chess Basket, no wonder they play chess together every day.
Li Xiuchang has nothing to do, so he observes the Golden Halberd Unicorn Beetle larvae in Beast Taming Bag.
Two days ago, Golden Halberd Unicorn Beetle larvae had just entered the third instar stage.
Probably because of eating a lot of Beast King Bone Powder, the golden skin is now shining with a metallic luster.
After entering the third instar stage, the larvae has increased in size many times. If the body is straightened, it is already stronger and taller than an adult man.
The larvae will stay in the third instar stage for a longer period of time and will continue to grow in size.
It is worth mentioning that the current larval aura is comparable to that of a second-order monster!
Generally speaking, ordinary insect monsters can become first-level monsters only after they become adults.
Even if the parents are powerful and have good bloodline conditions, it is not easy to become a second-level monster after adulthood. You still have to rely on yourself to improve your strength bit by bit.
But Li Xiuchang, this Golden Halberd Unicorn Beetle, has already reached the second level in the third instar larvae stage, and has shown the potential to surpass ordinary monsters.
Obviously, it is not the limit of Golden Halberd Unicorn Beetle yet. At the third age stage, it still has room for improvement.
The food given by Li Xiuchang to the larvae of Golden Halberd Unicorn Beetle has now been replaced with fermented sawdust of the third-order spiritual wood mixed with Beast King Bone Powder.
His larvae developed faster than normal larvae, and the main reason was the good food he provided.
Li Xiuchang practiced cooking in the room for two days, Immortal Cloud finally arrived at the Sword Seeking Sect.
The building boat stopped at the mountain gate of the Sword Seeking Sect. Li Xiuchang got off the building boat and looked up at the Sword Seeking Sect in the distance. He only saw a few towering peaks reaching into the clouds and almost perpendicular to the ground, like sharp swords growing out of the ground.
"Sword Seeking Sect's disciples live on the mountain peak?" Li Xiuchang asked curiously.
This is in line with the style of the Immortal Cultivating Sect in his impression. A sect is divided into multiple peaks, and a group of people live on each mountain.
Elder Xiang who came to greet them shook his head and laughed, "That's not the case. Only Straightforward Sword Cultivator likes to live on the mountain peaks. Others Sword Seeking Sect still prefer to live on the ground.
"Ahem, by the way, when you get to the Sword Seeking Sect, don't say 'Straightforward Sword Cultivator', it's not polite, their scientific name is 'Clear Heart Sword Cultivator'."
And the scientific name? You don't treat them as human beings.
The disciples of the Immortal Dust Sect lined up to enter Sword Seeking Sect, and the people from the Sword Seeking Sect were responsible for their placement. Li Xiuchang and Zhang Wanzhi were left alone by Elder Xiang.
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet the elders of the Sword Seeking Sect and make an appointment for a game."
The arrival of a large number of the Immortal Dust Sect disciples also spread the news of the friendly match to everyone in the Sword Seeking Sect.
In less than half a day, the entire Sword Seeking Sect, including the disciples of the Seal Heaven Sect and Ascension Pavilion, all knew about the friendly match, and also knew that Immortal Dust Sect had sent two outer disciples to participate.
These two outer disciples are the rumored disciples of the 21-year-old Foundation Establishment, and the disciples who formed High-grade Golden Core.
"Look, let me just say that the rumors are true. Immortal Dust Sect indeed has such a strong outer disciple."
"I thought it was a rumor before, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"Hahaha, reality is always more exaggerated than rumors!"
"I'm very curious, can the inner disciple of the Sword Seeking Sect beat the outer disciple of the Immortal Dust Sect?"
"Then you still need to ask? I Immortal Dust Sect will win!"
"We'll see! Our Sword Seeking Sect swordsmanship and fighting skills are recognized as powerful!"
"I Seal Heaven Sect Yue Chongshan supports Immortal Dust Sect Li Xiuchang with my real name. Brother Chang is not an ordinary person!"
"I Ascension Pavilion Chen Gao made a rational analysis, and to be honest, Sword Seeking Sect's side has a greater chance of winning... However, if Immortal Dust Sect's outer sect can have two disciples like this, it doesn't make sense!"
The disciples of Four Great Immortal Sects were stirred up in private. After all, the previous rumors brought a lot of heat, especially when everyone suddenly discovered that the rumors were not rumors. Immortal Dust Sect really had such a strong outer disciple!
This attracted many people who originally did not believe or spread rumors.
For a time, everyone was looking forward to this friendly match even more than the Four Great Immortal Sects exchange match.
Everyone is looking forward to when this game will start.
As a result, news soon came out that the competition will be held tomorrow at the foot of the highest peak of the Sword Seeking Sect "Divine Sword Peak"!
This news was released by the disciples of the Sword Seeking Sect. They were eager to clear their name and use a clean victory to prove that their results in the Golden Core Stage exchange competition were not watery, so they worked hard to publicize it everywhere.
Hopefully it will attract more people to watch the game.
In fact, there was no need for them to promote it so hard. As soon as the news was released, people already went to the front row of the competition venue overnight to occupy seats.
These disciples who came to participate in the competition were all waiting for the exchange competition to start. They were already a little bored, but now that there was excitement to watch, of course they would not miss it.
Especially the disciples of the Sword Seeking Sect and Immortal Dust Sect, this is a matter of their sect's face, so everyone is looking forward to it.
As the parties involved, Li Xiuchang and Zhang Wanzhi were both calm. At their unanimous request, the game time was set for tomorrow.
Both of them hope to finish the fight early and end it early.
That night, the two of them ate spiritual delicacies and drank immortal wine together in the courtyard where they lived.
Li Xiuchang After several cups of fairy wine, he was already tipsy.
Zhang Wanzhi asked, "Xiuchang, do you plan to win or lose this competition?"
"Of course I have to win if I can win! "Li Xiuchang As it should be.
Zhang Wanzhi thought of Chen Changsheng's instructions and felt a little unhappy.
Just at this moment, someone knocked on the door. It turned out to be Yue Chongshan and Chen Gao who had found out where Li Xiuchang lived and came over.
These two people have earned a lot of spiritual stones through the Four Immortals Merchant Alliance. Now that they know that Li Xiuchang has arrived, of course they have to pay a visit.
"Brother Li, long time no see."
"Come on, come on, sit down and have something to eat together."
The two sat down and after getting to know each other, they exchanged glasses and started chatting.
"Brother Li, I will bet a thousand spiritual stones on you to win the competition tomorrow! "Yue Chongshan said, patting his chest.
"Then please hand over five hundred spirit stones to me quickly, or I will lose to you tomorrow. "Li Xiuchang joked.
Yue Chongshan directly slapped Storage Bag on the table. "I can't get the five hundred spirit stones. Brother Li can take as much as he wants."
Chen Gao on the side laughed and scolded, "Fake generosity, you are only willing to stake a thousand spiritual stones to support Brother Li, but I staked three thousand spiritual stones!"
Yue Chongshan No Qi Ingestion said, "I will borrow the spirit stone when I go back and deposit another four thousand!"
"You are still being conservative. "Zhang Wanzhi smiled and said, "Bet 10,000 for me, Xiu Chang will win."
After saying that, he actually took out one hundred mid-grade Spirit Stone and put it in front of Chen Gao.
Seeing this, Li Xiuchang also took out 10,000 spirit stones and put them in Yue Chongshan's hand. "Help me bet 10,000 too!"
"What a great effort from both of you!"
Chen Gao and Yue Chongshan did not expect that each of them would get 10,000 spirit stones. It seems that the outer disciple of the Immortal Dust Sect is not only strong, but also has strong financial resources.
However, the two of them also saw that Li Xiuchang was very confident in himself.
Chen Gao and Yue Chongshan looked at each other and raised their bets that night, raising their bets to 10,000 spirit stones!
Not only the two of them, but even a group of second- and fifth-level people within the Sword Seeking Sect, that is, Ye Zhixing and others who know Li Xiuchang, all bet on Li Xiuchang to win.
Even Ye Zhixing and Liang Zaiping placed heavy bets on Zhang Wanzhi.
In addition to the 20,000 spirit stones entrusted by Li Xiuchang and Zhang Wanzhi, the total amount bet by these people exceeds 70,000!
Amid much anticipation, the friendly match finally kicked off the next day.
Li Xiuchang and Zhang Wanzhi took their seats early.
The first one to come on stage was Li Xiuchang. He came to the preparation area of the competition arena. There were eight elders from Four Great Immortal Sects sitting in the referee area.
Li Xiuchang never saw his opponent today.
An Sword Seeking Sect elder dressed in white came on stage. He looked at Li Xiuchang and said, "You are Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivation Level. You can choose any of our Sword Seeking Sect inner sect Foundation Establishment Middle Stage disciples as your opponent."
After that, five or six Foundation Establishment Middle Stage and Sword Seeking Sect disciples in white flew onto the ring and let Li Xiuchang choose.
