Cultivating Quietly for a Thousand Years
Chapter 22
Obtaining the Treasure Numinous, the Divine Cloak Mystic Golden Cicada
***
Seeing how confident he was, Han Jue decided to get serious.
Zhou Fan had to be defeated before he could show his strength. That's the only way to minimize the impact.
If Han Jue defeated him when Zhou Fan unleashed all of his strength, it would only show that Han Jue was even stronger. That way, he wouldn't be able to be low profile anymore.
With so many people watching, it was impossible for Han Li to delay until everyone left.
After his decision, Han Jue walked towards Zhou Fan.
Mo Zhu said with a serious expression, Zhou Fan's “Dharma-born Treasure is very powerful. Because of this treasure, Master made an exception and accepted him as a private disciple.”
Chang Yue'er disdainfully said, "He is no match for Junior Han."
Xing Hongxuan did not say anything. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Han Jue.
Zhou Fan had a confident smile on his face, but seeing Han Jue walking straight towards him, he still felt confused.
Because he often heard Mo Fuchou bragging about him!
Slowly, he felt that Han Jue was extremely strong.
Today, I will defeat him and prove my strength!
Take a good look. I'll make you regret and tell you that you've underestimated Me!
Zhou Fan thought about it in silence. When he thought of that smiling handsome face, he was furious.
He raised a small black bell, preparing to show his strength!
A crazy smile appeared on his face.
What if he is talented!
Today, I, Zhou Fan, will defeat this talented cultivator!
Swish!
A dazzling sword flashed, causing Zhou Fan to involuntarily close his eyes.
Explosion-out
Zhou Fan was sent flying, vomiting blood. He was like a kite with a broken rope, blown out of the battle arena.
The solitude!
Everyone is silent.
Everyone is dumbfounded. They had not recovered from their shock.
The battle ended so quickly?
Even Old Immortal Dao Thunder, who was watching the Inner Sect Assessment, widened his eyes.
Han Jue retracted his technique, and the sword shadow behind him quickly disappeared. It only appeared for less than two seconds.
He turned around and bowed to the Old Immortal Dao Thunder with a fist.
Old Immortal Dao Thunder returned to his senses and announced, "Han Jue from the Jade Serene Peak won!"
Explosion-out
The crowd exploded in excitement. The male disciple discussed and the female disciple looked at him with shining eyes.
"Very fast?"
"Look, Zhou Fan is just mediocre!"
"Han Jue is too strong!"
“Who is Han Ju? When did such a genius appear on the Jade Serene Peak?”
"He's very handsome. Could it be she who is often discussed by female students?”
...
Han Jue quickly left the stage and disappeared into the crowd.
Since the battle arena was not destroyed, the second battle immediately began.
Zhou Fan was helped out of the crowd by a group of Heavenly Thunder Peak disciples.
There was still blood on the corner of his mouth. His face was pale and his eyes lifeless. It was like he lost his soul.
The punch was too great.
He doesn't even know how he lost.
But the moment he was exposed to the Three Pure Shadow Sword Technique, he felt an imminent death.
He knew that Han Jue could kill him.
One day, he was still full of confidence.
The next moment, he got off the platform.
Zhou Fan wished he could dig a hole to hide in.
He knew he had become a joke.
Chang Yue'er, Xing Hongxuan, and Mo Zhu tried to find Han Jue but were unable to find her.
He hid amidst the crowd and watched quietly.
Two hours later.
The top five has been decided.
The five disciples would draw the lottery to decide who would pass the next round and head straight for the top three.
The students don't mind. At this stage, the difference in strength was not too great. Everyone can be in the top three.
Han Ju hesitated. If he became one of the top three, perhaps he could just give up straight away.
In any case, the top three can choose Connate Cave Residence ...
That's her!
This way, its effects will be minimized.
He prayed in silence.
"Han Jue from the Jade Serene Peak will directly enter the top three!"
The other four disciples looked at him enviously and were wary as Old Immortal Daoist Thunder made the announcement.
They all watched Han Jue defeat Zhou Fan in an instant. This person did not use much of his spirit energy and was still in his peak condition.
Han Jue was overwhelmed with excitement as he quietly walked off the stage.
Chang Yue'er and the other two immediately surrounded him, preventing him from escaping.
"Junior, you have a good chance of getting first place this time!" Chang Yue'er said excitedly.
Mo Zhu and Xing Hongxuan were also very excited.
They all admired Han Jue and naturally hoped to see him in the limelight.
Han Jue shook his head and said, “I can't. It's not easy to get this far. ”
Zhou Fan, who was walking, almost fainted when he heard that.
He still wanted to ask Han Jue what spell he used to defeat him, but he ended up hearing such words.
Zhou Fan was so angry that he spewed blood. The disciple in front of him was sprayed full of blood.
Zhou Fan quickly turned around and left.
Han Jue turned to look, but Zhou Fan was already gone.
The next two games were fierce. Equipment, magic, movement techniques, and talismans. All sorts of things appear. The four disciples were all-round and on par with each other. No matter who the last winner was, they still fought well.
The big three were finally on stage.
“The three of you will each fight two more rounds with different opponents. The person who wins twice will be the first, wins and loses will be the second, and losing twice will be the third.” Old Immortal Daoist Thunder explained the rules.
Han Jue suddenly raised his hand and said, “ Elder, I admit defeat. Previously, in order to defeat my opponent quickly, I exhausted all of my spiritual energy and had yet to recover. Let them both fight. I am willing to be the third.”
Whooshing
Everyone is surprised. Chang Yue'er and the other two girls also widened their eyes.
Zhou Fan was stunned when he heard that.
Really true?
If that wasn't the case, why would Han Jue admit defeat?
So I'm not too weak.
[Zhou Fan's interest in you has increased. Current favorites: 2 stars]
When Han Jue saw the words in front of him, he said in his head, This guy is crazy!
Old Immortal Daoist Thunder looked at him and then nodded. He changed the rules, and Han Jue was ranked third.
Han Jue immediately got off the stage.
The next fight was less exciting than the previous one. Both of them consumed a lot of spiritual energy.
Han Jue felt that he could face the two of them together.
In the end, the top three were decided, and the Inner Sect Assessment ended.
The top three followed the Old Immortal Daoist Thunder to the Main Peak.
On the way there flying with his sword, a line appeared before Han Jue:
[You entered the top three in the Inner Sect Assessment while remaining humble. You will get the Numinous Treasure.]
[Happy to have obtained the seventh grade Numinous Treasure — Divine Cloak Mystic Golden Cicada]
[Golden Mystic Cicada Divine Cloak: A seventh grade Numinous Treasure that can automatically defend against enemy attacks. It could survive up to a punch from a Soul Formation realm cultivator. If you inject spirit energy into it, its defensive power will increase.]
Han Jue raised his eyebrows.
Defensively resisting the blows of a Soul Formation realm cultivator... So powerful?
It was indeed a Numinous treasure, stronger than Dharma equipment and treasures!
The seventh grade Numinous Treasure. Could there be a sixth grade, fifth grade, and up to first grade Numinous Treasure?
How powerful was a first-rate Numinous treasure?
Han Jue guessed inwardly.
He's in a good mood.
It's too satisfying. After obtaining the Golden Mystic Cicada Divine Cloak, he felt very safe. And he'll get an innate cave dwelling. It was a very useful assessment of the inner sect.
Once he wore the Mystic Divine Robe Golden Cicada, he would be able to cultivate peacefully and not have to worry about sneak attacks.
Soul Formation realm cultivators were few in number. Almost nothing appears every century in the Jade Pure Sect.
However, the Divine Cloak Mystic Golden Cicada could only protect him. If he met a Nascent Soul cultivator, they would not be able to kill him, nor would he be able to kill them.
Han Jue could not help but smile.
“Why are you so happy to be in third place? Did Fairy Xi Xuan tell you to only fight for third place? ” Old Immortal Daoist Thunder suddenly asked.
The two disciples in front turned to look at Han Jue with strange expressions.
They were not stupid and also felt that Han Jue's submission was too dubious. However, it was also good news for them, so they did not question it.
