Chapter 533: The Dust Settles

Near the gaming table.

"Come on, let's start, let's start! The potential new disciple Shi Mu, who has won three games in a row, is about to face the second-ranked high-ranking disciple Ling Feng. The odds are 1 to 3! The opportunity is rare, buy it! Duanmu Guang shouted excitedly with his face flushed at the moment.

Just now Zhao Jian and Long Zhanye came to a draw. Since the two conditions stipulated in the betting contract are that either side wins, a draw means that the banker takes all. Now he has made a lot of money.

The big competition is now coming to an end. Although many disciples lost their fortunes, there are also many people who made a fortune by taking advantage of it.

Nowadays, there are still crowds around the gambling table. The big winners before want to take advantage of their luck to make a last fortune, while the people who lost money before are naturally unwilling and want to recover their losses.

"I bet on Brother Lingfeng to win! No matter what, he is also a master of heaven who has been ranked second in the list for more than a hundred years!"

"Long Zhanye is still at the top of the list! He was tied by Zhao Jian. I think the new disciples who are shortlisted this year are not easy! I bet on Shi Mu!"

"That's right! This Shi Mu doesn't seem to have fully exerted his strength, is he not well-prepared and upset?"

"This brother is right! Victory or defeat depends on one action, fight!"

While discussing, many people cast their eyes on Ma Long from time to time. Her behavior of betting heavily on Shi Mu several times before has obviously attracted the attention of many people.

However, Ma Long looked towards the direction of the ring at this time, and didn't intend to place a bet.

...

On the arena, Ling Feng was already standing opposite Shi Mu, wearing a blue long gown with a fluttering sound, a gentle smile still hung on his handsome face.

"Shi Mu has the guts to challenge Senior Brother Ling, and please give him some pointers." Shi Mu cupped his hands and said.

"The way of a warrior needs to be sharpened in constant battles in order to maintain his edge forever. Senior Brother was worried that this competition would be a little boring, but Junior Brother Shi just happened to fulfill me." Ling Feng said indifferently, but with a calm demeanor .

"Then Junior Brother will be impolite." Shi Mu said.

Ling Feng smiled slightly, waved one hand, and made a gesture of invitation, the aura of the early stage of Tianwei was stored but not released.

Shi Mu didn't speak anymore, and when the red light lit up all over his body, two wings of fire stretched out from behind.

Then he opened his mouth and vomited, and turned the Ruyi iron rod into a long stick with eyebrows, held it in his hand, and made a gesture of raising his hands.

Seeing this, Ling Feng put the two fingers of his right hand together in front of him, with a faint blue light between his fingers, and silently recited a mantra.

Accompanied by the sound of the incantation, a phantom of a blue full moon slowly emerged behind it.

"Double cultivation of martial arts, Full Moon Warlock!" Shi Mu thought to himself.

I saw Ling Feng's right hand drew a circle in front of him, leaving a blue afterimage where it passed, and after the afterimage solidified, a blue halo appeared in front of him.

"Junior Brother Shi, be careful!"

After finishing speaking, Ling Feng's eyes were full of blue light, his right hand changed his technique, and he whispered "Wan Jian Jue!"

Then, an indescribable sword intent surged out from the blue circle of light.

"Swish Swish Swish"

Following a subtle sound, countless blue lightsabers emerged from the blue circle of light, shooting towards Shi Mu's location continuously.

Upon closer inspection, the whole body of the lightsaber was covered with a layer of blue light, exuding bursts of mana fluctuations, and it was impressively blessed with some kind of magic technique!

Ling Feng was able to apply a layer of spells to every lightsaber he struck while urging his martial skills. This scene left the surrounding disciples stunned!

Countless lightsabers gathered together, like a long blue dragon, rushing towards Shi Mu like a rainbow. Wherever it passed, the escaping sword energy cut the ground of the ring below into devastation.

Shi Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and let down the golden light all over his body. In an instant, the golden scales completely wrapped himself up. At the same time, his arms danced, and the Ruyi stick in his hand danced wildly like a waterwheel, dense white air flow emerged around his body.

"Tiger's Si comes out!"

With a low cry, he smashed the long stick in his hand to the ground in front of him, and immediately the surrounding white air rushed out like a wild beast, facing those blue lightsabers.

There was a piercing sound of ping-pong-pong, and those menacing phantoms of white tiger rhinoceros and ferocious beasts, under the impact of the blue lightsaber, were almost vulnerable to a single blow, and they all wailed and scattered!

For a moment, countless white air streams exploded in mid-air, and the blue sword light dragon continued to rush towards Shi Mu like a broken bamboo.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shi Mu flapped his wings behind and flew upside down into the midair.

However, the long blue sword light dragon seemed to have eyes, and suddenly turned upwards in the opposite direction, chasing up like a shadow.

The speed of the real air in Shi Mu's body increased sharply, his arms fluttered up and down, dancing wildly, and the shadows of black sticks all over the sky covered the blue sword light dragon.

"The spirit snake has come out of its hole!"

"Goshawk cover the top!"

"Break the dragon and turn the river!"

"Frenzied Dragon Dance!"

"Dive into the dragon soaring into the abyss!"

Using five moves in one breath, huge black stick shadows with overwhelming momentum criss-crossed out, turning into a huge black net and pressing down.

The sound of "Keng Keng" is loud!

The long blue sword light dragon slammed into the huge black net, and finally it was difficult to move forward, and blue and black air currents swept in all directions.

The roar is loud!

The ground of the surrounding arena was instantly cut to pieces under the impact of dense airflow, and even the surrounding blue light curtains flickered wildly for a while.

Before the shadow of the stick and the light of the sword completely dissipated, Ling Feng's steps changed, and his figure suddenly became erratic.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared on Shi Mu's right side like a ghost, and a three-foot-long blue sword glow faltered on his raised two fingers, stabbing straight at Shi Mu's chest and abdomen.

Shi Mu's heart was terrified, he immediately moved the long stick, turned around to block it, and with this force, flew out backwards.

His back was dripping with cold sweat, this brother Ling Feng did not know what movement technique he used, it was actually several times faster than that of Li Tuo and Qing Changtian!

"I admit defeat!" Shi Mu clasped his fists and said as soon as he landed.

As soon as his words fell, the blue sword edge between Ling Feng's fingers had already appeared in the space between his brows, and stopped steadily.

"Brother Ling Feng's cultivation base is advanced, there is no need to continue fighting." Shi Mu looked at Ling Feng and added with a grin.

"Hehe, Junior Brother Shi has achieved such a record in the first big competition in ten years since his entry into the university. He is much better than his senior brother back then. I believe that in time, Junior Brother Shi will definitely be among the top ten." Accept, said with a smile.

"Auspicious words from senior brother." Shi Mu cupped his hands and said.

Different from the peaceful atmosphere on the stage, there was already an explosion in the arena.

The people who thought they would see a wonderful match were greatly disappointed, and some couldn't help but curse.

Around the gambling table, those speculators who bet on Shi Mu became even more furious at this moment.

"You bastard, you actually gave up! It's in vain that Lao Tzu is so optimistic about you, and all the ten top-quality spirit stones I borrowed have been squandered!" The wretched man before cursed angrily at the top of his throat.

"Ouch, my spirit stone!"

"I can not be reconciled……"

Wails and curses could be heard from the side from time to time, Ma Long was fine, but Cai Er couldn't sit still, and said via voice transmission: .

"Stone, why did you surrender so quickly?"

"Why, you seem very upset?" Shi Mu asked.

"A group of gamblers around you who lost money are scolding you, of course I'm not happy to hear that." Cai'er said.

"Let them go. Anyway, I didn't place a bet. I just wanted to test my strength in this round, but I found that there was no possibility of winning without using mystic skills, so I had no choice but to give up." Shi Mu explained.

"So it's like this, I said Shitou, you're not that cowardly!" Cai'er said.

After hearing this, Shi Mu was speechless for a while.

After Ling Feng and Shi Mu returned to their respective positions, the red-browed young man came out again to question everyone.

This time, after a full incense stick of time, no one left to challenge.

Then, the red-browed young man asked for instructions from the senior sects who were still on the stage, then turned around and announced that the ten-year competition in the Yellow Stage region had officially come to an end and the dust had settled.

In the center of the square, the Qinglan Ranking List was released again.

Compared with the top ten list before the game, there was no change except that the ninth place changed hands to Zhao Jian.

Zi Ling still ranked nineteenth, while Shi Mu also held on to thirty-seventh.

Except for these three people, the temporary high-ranking disciples who had entered together before had all become low-ranking disciples.

...

After the competition ended, Shi Mu immediately returned to the cave.

Qi Feng and other attendants seemed to have received the news in advance from some unknown channel. At this moment, 300 people gathered in front of the cave gate and waited, looking excited. When they saw Shi Mu's landing, they all saluted.

"Congratulations to the Palace Master for being promoted to an official high-ranking disciple!"

They were naturally happy that Shi Mu had officially become a high-ranking disciple, and the status of their servants had naturally risen accordingly, and their various interests were far from the same as before.

"Okay, it's nothing. It's good for you to continue to carry out your own responsibilities." Shi Mu said lightly.

A moment later, in a living room of the main house.

Qi Feng led Ma Long into the gate, bowed to Shi Mu, and then retreated by himself.

"Miss Ma, you're here, sit down." Shi Mu sat in the middle and made a gesture of invitation to a chair beside him.

"Brother Shi, why don't you see Cai'er?" Ma Long asked as soon as she sat down.

"That glutton took a few servants to the Lingquan to catch fire spirits and eat them in the afternoon, and he hasn't come back yet." Shi Mu said.

"Hehe, Cai'er likes to eat these spiritual materials so much! Brother Shi, this is your spiritual stone, click on it." After finishing speaking, Ma Long took off a storage ring from his finger and put it on Shi Mu's finger. before.

Shi Mu took the rings, but before counting them, he took out hundreds of them and handed them back to Ma Long.

"This time I have Miss Lao Ma, so these will be considered as rewards." Shi Mu said.

"Brother Shi, you don't need to be so polite. To tell you the truth, when I bet for you, my younger sister also bet a lot. Thanks to you, I also earned a lot of spirit stones." Ma Long waved his hands repeatedly.

Seeing that he didn't intend to pretend to refuse, Shi Mu didn't force him any more, and immediately said:

"Okay. If Miss Ma needs anything in the future, please speak up. I will never refuse if I can do my best." "Brother Shi is serious?"

"Naturally." Shi Mu smiled and nodded. (To be continued.)
