With the defeat of Ma Wu, the montum of the Humble Lineage plumted. In the following two rounds, there was no improvent. Although a few participants tried to compete, they were knocked off the platform in just a few moves, looking embarrassed.
The Starlight Silver Sand Qi was obtained by Ji Mobai from the Celestial Spirit Peak.
This individual’s strength was formidable, and the Celestial Spirit Seal was quite mysterious. He entered the Jade Platform alone and subsequently enveloped the platform with a Dharma Seal. One after another, challengers rose but were suppressed by the peculiar starlight in mid-air and defeated, unable to even step onto the stage.
The Cloud Dream Marsh Talismanic Qi was obtained by a male disciple from the Formless Vein.
The "Taiyin Moonlight Qi" of the Toad Moon Divine Light True Diagram was obtained by a female disciple from the Yingyue Vein.
The first few rounds were still bearable, but when the Taiyin Moonlight Qi was also taken by Seven Vein Disciples, the Humble Lineage beca utterly dispirited, with many disciples falling silent, their eyes turning dull.
For the Daoist Seven True Diagrams, Humble Lineage Disciples could only cultivate the Lower Three Diagrams, whereas Seven Vein and Noble Family disciples could cultivate the Seven True Diagrams.
Although their mystique was slightly inferior to the other four diagrams, they were still one of the secret True Maps of the Daoist School, pointing directly to the Golden Core, with formidable power. So Seven Vein Disciples, whose root bone and comprehension naturally aligned with these True Maps, also chose these few True Maps for cultivation.
Moreover, when vying for Spiritual Qi during Realm-Breaking, there would be far fewer obstacles.
Currently, the struggle for Spiritual Qi at the Flowing Cloud Banquet is the best proof.
When cultivating the sa True Map, Humble Lineage Disciples simply lacked the power to compete with Seven Vein Disciples. Although quite a few participated, they ultimately returned in dismay.
At this mont, five slots for the Upper Seventh Grade Spiritual Qi had been determined.
Not a single Humble Lineage mber.
And the battle for Spiritual Qi continued.
"The Cyan Wood Profound Spirit Qi, an elent for forging the Cyan Ginseng Dao Foundation, who wishes to compete?"
In front of the grand hall, the old Daoist waved his large sleeve, and a trace of cyan Spiritual Qi flew out in a mont, along with a cyan-green Token, hovering uncertainly over the Jade Platform.
"Haha, fellow Junior Brothers, my poor self, born with the Wood Dao Body, shall claim this Spiritual Qi!"
As the old Daoist finished speaking, a handso young man from the Su Family, holding a folding fan, walked onto the Jade Platform with a casual grin, as if he had been waiting for this mont.
Seeing this, a few disciples cultivating the Planting Heaven and Earth Evergreen Map from the Humble Lineage instantly looked dejected.
Unexpectedly, even soone from a Noble Family was cultivating the Planting Heaven and Earth Evergreen Map.
They hesitated for a mont but did not dare to step directly onto the platform.
The Su Family was a Golden Core Family, and this individual was of the Wood Dao Body, clearly not soone to provoke. The chances of winning were rather low.
"The Great Dao is about striving, losing doesn’t matter!"
After hesitating briefly, a disciple from the Humble Lineage stood up to challenge the Su Family youth.
"Please go ahead!"
The Su Family youth replied with a smile, his deanor seemingly gentle, yet his eyes carried a hint of disdain.
"Spirit Protection Seal!"
"Cyan Wood Slash!"
"Seal of the Spirit!"
Once on the Jade Platform, the Humble Lineage disciple first used a Dharma Seal to amplify his Spiritual Sense, protecting himself, then unleashed his techniques at incredible speed towards the Su Family youth.
But the Su Family youth just chuckled lightly. From within his Sea of Consciousness, a surge of Spiritual Sense, like massive tendrils of a vine, gushed out wildly, and in an instant, shattered the Spirit Protection Seal of the Humble Lineage youth.
The Humble Lineage youth froze for a mont.
After that, the Su Family youth waved his hand, unleashing formidable Dharma Seals that swiftly knocked the Humble Lineage disciple off the Jade Platform.
"Having Ma Wu among you is already considered your fortune. Without Top-Grade Spiritual Sense, how can you compete with us?"
Having triumphed, the Su Family youth could no longer suppress the sneer at the corner of his mouth and couldn’t help but mock.
Upon hearing this, the Humble Lineage disciples below the platform looked enraged, but they couldn’t refute.
Even though Spiritual Sense wasn’t the absolute factor in Magical Combat, how could they contend for the Seven Clans Disciple if they couldn’t even pass this hurdle?
Ma Wu’s Magical Combat may have seed easy, but the hidden dangers were beyond what outsiders could comprehend.
"Is there anyone else who wants to try my Dharma Seal?"
Seeing the Humble Lineage disciples silent, the Su Family youth burst into laughter and asked aloud.
He knew that among the Veins and Noble Families, no one cultivated the Planting Heaven and Earth Evergreen Map. How could re Humble Lineage disciples compete with him?
This slot was his for the taking!
No one could stop him!
Bian Chuyao from below the platform gently shook her head, revealing a aningful smile.
The several Noble Family disciples nearby, all keen-eyed individuals, frowned slightly, looking sowhat puzzled upon seeing the situation.
At this mont, a gentle voice ca from below the platform.
"I would like to learn from Junior Brother Su’s techniques."
With that voice, a tall and handso figure stood up and landed on the Jade Platform.
"Such arrogance, who do you claim to be your Junior Brother?"
Hearing this, the Su Family youth’s face turned cold, and he imdiately rebuked.
Not all Noble Family disciples were as approachable as Bian Chuyao. Many Noble Family disciples, especially Golden Core Descendants, looked down on ordinary Humble Lineage disciples.
They believed that the Hidden Flood Dragon Institute was rely a muddy place, raising a few Qi Refining cannon fodder at best, not fit to compete with them at the Flowing Cloud Banquet for the True Inheritance Position.
The previous five pedals of Spiritual Qi proved it.
So when Gu Yuan spoke disrespectfully, he was imdiately furious. In his Sea of Consciousness, a surge of Spiritual Sense gathered into a giant vine, roaring like an ancient tree, striking fiercely at Gu Yuan.
Top-Grade Spiritual Sense, Cyan Rattan Giant Spirit!
Seeing this, Gu Yuan rely clasped his hands behind his back and chuckled softly.
Soon, the Silver Flood Dragon coiled out, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, confronting the Cyan Rattan Giant Spirit of the Su Family youth.
In the past, he wasn’t one to flaunt his abilities, but today was different. There was no use in hiding his prowess. In the face of such arrogance, he must be even more arrogant to impress upon them.
"Roar!"
The Evil Flood Dragon roared, shaking the Void. After Gu Yuan’s Spiritual Sense devoured the Silver Beast Hide Book, its power increased greatly. Now, the Silver Flood Dragon was nearly corporeal, with subtly visible silver-scaled armor, resembling a living creature. In a split second, it severed the blue vine, deciding the battle of the Sea of Consciousness.
Though strong, could a blue vine trap a Flood Dragon?
The Su Family youth’s expression froze, his movents halting montarily.
Then Gu Yuan pointed, and pink petals, vibrant and sharp, slashed toward the Su Family youth.
"Clang!"
But the Su Family youth, after all, hailed from a Golden Core Family and was adept. Even though his Spiritual Sense was shattered and he was montarily disoriented, a Dharma Seal, like a withered old vine in his Dantian, automatically rose, forming a massive blue-gray barrier, securely protecting him and withstanding the Peach Blossom Sword Qi’s strike.
Yet Gu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged, channeling all his Mana into the Little Giant God Seal and the Peach Blossom Sword Seal.
With three tis the Mana flowing like a torrent, the Peach Blossom Sword Seal and the Little Giant God Seal buzzed as if barely enduring such trendous power. The Dao Patterns on the seals glead intensely, as if dragons ready to leap out.
The resulting effect was that the Sword Qi in the air beca dazzlingly sharp to an outrageous degree.
"Swoosh!"
Pink light cleaved through the Void, the Dharma Seal shattered, and blood spattered.
The Su Family youth, just recovering from the turmoil of his Spiritual Sense, felt a chill on his neck, and then his entire body fell uncontrollably towards the platform below.
"Junior Brother Su, well contested!"
A gentle voice echoed from the platform. The Su Family youth awoke as if from a dream, his face ashen.
The entire grand hall fell into a hushed silence.
Unexpectedly, a Humble Lineage disciple won, and so decisively, with elegance and ease.
For a mont, everyone’s attention was drawn.
Gu Yuan glanced around, chuckled softly, and unceremoniously pocketed the hovering Spiritual Qi and Token.
This allocation was just the beginning; he still had a grand performance yet to unfold!
