The competition continues. The peak that became the end line had already begun to appear before the eyes. All the participants instantly accelerated the pace of his flying sword. At times like this most have entered a stressful time.
Zi Xian had already been left far behind by Qing Yue'er. He snorted coldly. However, suddenly a grin appeared on his lips. Secretly his finger carved out a strange formation that was small in size. Then he threw the formation onto his own sword.
What happened next was really surprising. His flying sword speed became increased many times over. Zi Xian laughed out loud. In just a few moments he had already caught up with Qing Yue'er's position. It really surprised anyone who saw it.
“Heh? What else did he use this time?” Dugu Linwu asked in surprise. He had always suspected that Zi Xian was doing something abnormal.
Sect Head Yang You narrowed his eyes to pay attention to Zi Xian. His gaze shifted to the small light contained in the part of his sword. “He wears a formation to increase the speed of the sword.”
Dugu Linwu was shocked. Such a formation was quite a rare thing. He had not expected it to turn out that Zi Xian could have such a rare thing. However, he also thought of something else. Finally he asked, “Is this not against the rules?
“Indeed there is no regulation that says the prohibition of using formations. So, it's legitimate,” replied Yang You. In fact he was also surprised how Zi Xian was able to use that formation. However, given that Zi Xian's father was someone who had a name, it was probably a natural thing.
“Then I became curious whether that Miss Xinyu could compete with the Zi Xian formation or not.” Dugu Linwu said with a tone full of anticipation. He became increasingly curious about the outcome.
“Hahaha, Xinyu, I will finally be there soon! I will beat you!” Zi Xian suddenly shouted as he was already the leading participant. He feels very proud of himself. Moreover, he was proud of having a formation that no one else possessed.
Meanwhile Qing Yue'er was just staring forward with a face that remained calm. The final line is getting closer. He had to increase his speed again or Zi Xian would arrive first.
Finally this time he increased his speed to the limit. Every time he darted, he would leave behind a ‘whossh’ sound that others might hear.
Zi Xian noticed Qing Yue'er's increased speed. His heart became a little tense. He stared at the peak that was already in front of him. A little more, a little more he'll be there!
Whoosshh!
Whooss!
The two shadows almost simultaneously entered the end line. Not simultaneously but someone first entered the finish line. Distance and time are not so much. Very thin.
“Aaaa! Shit!” Zi Xian shouted in frustration. By the time he was about to arrive, another shadow overtook him from behind. That speed is absolutely insane. It might even be several times faster than its formation.
Qing Yue'er felt very satisfied. He turned around and looked at Zi Xian calmly. “You must keep your promise.”
Zi Xian pursed his lips. “Alright, alright. I'm not someone who likes to renege on his words.”
Sect Head Yang You was very surprised by the end result. At first he thought Zi Xian would be the winner. After all the boy was using a formation and it should be a very good help. However, who would know it turned out that Xinyu was even more unexpected.
Although Qing Yue'er looked calm on the surface but clearly she did not underestimate others. He knows where to relax and where to increase his efforts.
Which you finally understood. He felt astonished at the thought of Qing Yue'er being able to look further ahead. That will make the girl able to determine the strategy or things to do and consider next.
“Even the Zi Xian formation could not withstand the victory of Xinyu,” muttered Dugu Linwu.
“Zi Xian should still be able to win. However, he feels too proud and tends to quickly feel satisfied.” Yang You gave her a look towards Zi Xian. He did know a little bit about the character of that woman.
“Then this victory is something that is appropriate.”
“Indeed. This Xinyu was indeed undoubtedly extremely talented. In fact, maybe not just in one or two things,” said Yang You. “Let them come back here again. I'll give you something that was promised before.”
Dugu Linwu nodded. Then he moved towards the committee to give his instructions.
The victory of Xinyu was much surprised by the people. Whether it was the other competition participants or the bystanders, they really did not expect that the one who got the victory was a young girl. While the people who participate in the competition are mostly adults.
“Actually who is he?”
“I don't know his identity yet. However, during his stay here were indeed the people of the North Wind sect greatly appreciated him. Do you think he has a special identity?”
“That's for sure. After all in this world there would be no one to treat others well without certain frills. Whether it's a treasure or just hugging the thigh, there must be a reason.”
“If thought, your words have a point too.”
Those gossipers spoke enthusiastically. They will only stop when someone is warning them. If not then they will continue speaking until moving on to other topics.
Meanwhile Qing Yue'er and the participants who had already reached the final peak were moving back to the previous peak. This peak is actually only used for certain purposes only.
After arriving at the peak, Qing Yue'er was immediately greeted warmly by the people. Many wanted to chat with him, perhaps to establish a good relationship with him. However, he felt uncomfortable if he was treated like that.
Most of these people can guess the character. They are the ones who will try to lick and hug the thighs on people who have a reputation. However, they will become blind and deaf when someone who is proud of it suddenly falls.
“Heh, very disgusting!” jegek Zi Xian's. He approached Qing Yue'er and pulled her away from that crowded place.
“Where will you take me?” qing Yue'er asked.
Qing Yue'er finally followed Zi Xian. The woman took him to a building not so far away. Then Zi Xian seemed to take something and handed it to Qing Yue'er.
“It just so happens that I only brought this along when I left. So, use it well. Hopefully it will help you in breakthrough.” Zi Xian said with a slight heaviness of heart. His intention to be superior to Qing Yue'er instead ended up harming him. However, he also could not deny his own words. Inevitably he had to give up the thing.
Qing Yue'er immediately received the object that was still wrapped in the cloth. However, he did not immediately open the package instead he stored it into his sleeves. “I'll open it later,” he said.
“Why? Aren't you afraid I'll trick you?” Zi Xian looked at Qing Yue'er in surprise. If it was someone else would definitely directly check it out to ascertain the contents.
“If you deceive me then I will come to your residence to ask for more compensation,” Qing Yue'er replied with origin. Although he did not know what it contained, but he greatly appreciated the character of Zi Xian. At least the woman will keep her own words.
ZI Xian chuckled. “Heheh, then do it.”
Eventually, the two of them returned to their original places. Sect Head Yang You was already waiting for them. “Since you guys are already here then I will make an exception.”
“Exception?” Zi Xian asked in surprise.
“Yes, usually the competition will only take one major winner. However, this time I will lift two winners,” said Yang You who was immediately greeted with applause from others.
“I think you guys are both good at this. So I've decided,” he continued.
Zi Xian immediately exclaimed with pleasure. Even though he did not defeat Qing Yue'er, he ended up being one of the winners. He was finally able to return by showing off this result to his parents
“Thank you, I'm so happy,” he told Sect Head Yang You.
“Nothing. I hope you have a lot to learn again.” Yang You smiled little. “Well, come with me. I'll give you the promised gift.”
Qing Yue'er of course felt even more pleased from hearing the word gift. He also followed Yang You along with Zi Xian. As for the others, some began to disperse. However, there are also those who are still there to just talk.
Yang You took Zi Xian and Qing Yue'er towards the building that was still tightly sealed. There is a large chain used to lock the door. There were two people guarding the door with stiff faces.
Then Yang You gestured for the door to be opened immediately. The two guards instantly drew an unknown formation. A few moments later the chain instantly opened, creating a loud twang sound.
“Follow me,” pinta The You.
Qing Yue'er and Zi Xian directly entered following Yang You. They observed the entire room that had just been entered. Again there is a statue that is believed to be the God of Wind. It was just that this one was not as big as the statue that was in the sect grounds.
This Wind God statue is located in the middle of a pond that is not so big but has very clear water. The sound of water flow created really makes the atmosphere feel more calming.
Qing Yue'er felt astonished by this kind of feeling. Although it seemed like the room was rarely used but there was no visible touch of dust at all. Moreover, there also has excellent lighting. He felt a little surprised.
In addition, there are several other trinkets made of bronze. The first time he saw this locked building, he thought the inside would be a little gloomy. It's not like that, it's the opposite.
“I think what a cultivator needs most is nothing but resources. Perhaps weapons or martial techniques were also valuable. However, resources still remain the most important,” Sect Head Yang You who was approved by Qing Yue'er and Zi Xian said.
“So, I will also give you resources that I have saved for a long time,” Yang You continued.
Then he walked closer to the pool. He knocked on the wall several times. Next the wall that just tapped it immediately opened displaying the box stored behind it.
Qing Yue'er felt astonished when she saw that simple mechanism. It is usually a treasure or at least something valuable would be better if stored in an unexpected place. It would make it difficult for others to know of its existence.
“Here are two Fire Bird crystals for each of you. This is something quite rare so I hope it will be able to help you guys," Yang You said as he handed over the box taken from the pool wall.
Zi Xian was instantly shocked when he saw Yang You's gift. “Fire Bird Crystals? I've heard of it but have never seen it at all!”
He immediately took out one of the red-colored crystals. Then watch him in amazement. This is beyond her expectations. He did not expect that this Sect Head Yang You was willing to give something precious. It was incredible.
If Zi Xian felt so surprised then Qing Yue'er's reaction was very different. He remains calm. Of course, it was because he had already seen it. Not only did he see but he had also once perfected it for a breakthrough.
He just smiled and took the crystal. “Thank you for the gift,” he said. That's fine, who knew he could break through again with that crystal. Moreover, he had also just received one gift from Zi Xian. Maybe he can combine the two.
“Ah, not nothing,” sahut The You. He felt astonished because Qing Yue'er did not seem to be much surprised. Is it possible that the girl had already encountered this Fire Bird crystal before? He can't be sure. Although he was a little curious, he was also unlikely to ask. Too unexpected.
“Then you may be able to leave first. Remember, don't let anyone else see the crystal. I will look around this room for a moment,” Yang You said.
Qing Yue'er nodded. Finally he and Zi Xian walked out leaving the calming room. They went back to their rooms. It was fortunate that this Zi Xian wanted to immediately refine the Fire Bird crystal. So, the woman had no intention of bothering Qing Yue'er at all.
Meanwhile, Qing Yue'er took some time to rest. Perhaps he would again continue on his way to the peak of Beifeng Xue the next day.
Inside the room, he was standing in front of the window. He gazed into the distance at the white peak that could be seen from where he stood. He's going to the top tomorrow. Maybe there he will find a fortune or even bad luck. Whatever it was, he was still enthusiastic.
