Chapter 522
Late afternoon.
On the ring, the two disciples competing for first place finally decided the winner.
The first place winner was actually a female disciple!
The female disciple was tall and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and bulging muscles all over her body. She was holding a diamond ax and looked majestic, even more domineering than a man.
The solid arena was riddled with holes from the ax in her hand.
Wu Youzi came to the stage and announced: "The first place on the overall list, Qingzhou Branch Disciple, Gongsun Wushuang!"
The Qingzhou branch disciples in the audience immediately cheered loudly and excitedly.
In this way, the top ten of the overall list have been released.
Other rankings need to be calculated based on the scores given by several elders.
As for the team ranking, it will be calculated based on the ranking and performance of each disciple, the sum of scores and the addition and subtraction of the number of people.
In the square, people were noisy, talking expectantly.
Of course, there are also those who are depressed and silent.
Sun Jiang gathered several disciples together with a smile on his face and said: "Our scores will definitely be high. Feiyang and Yuanshan have both entered the top ten, and their scores will definitely be doubled. Our Kyoto branch's ranking is probably at least among the top." Fifteen, or even higher. You have worked hard this time, and you have gained honor for yourself and the teacher. When you go back, you will not be short of rewards for the teacher."
Chu Xiaoxiao immediately jumped for joy and cheered: "Master, what rewards do you have? Can I choose it myself?"
Sun Jiang smiled and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back. When you get the rewards from the sect, you probably won't be interested in the rewards for being a teacher."
Chu Xiaoxiao chuckled and said, "The more, the merrier. We won't have too much. Master, please don't default on your debt when the time comes."
Sun Jiang laughed and said, "A teacher is not a deadbeat."
Zhang Yuanshan and others felt happy when they saw their master showing such a rare smile, and started laughing.
In fact, they didn't know that Sun Jiang was happy for more than that.
Their team's ranking is not only in the top fifteen this time, but because of someone's relationship, it is very likely to directly enter the top five!
After all, he is a direct disciple, and this situation has never happened in Ling Xiao's first trial in the past few years.
At most, it can only be a few elders and a few inner disciples. Even then, it can cause a sensation in the whole sect.
Therefore, this year's first test will undoubtedly shock everyone present.
Below the stands, a total of nine elders were counting scores and rankings.
When the total score of the team was tallied, the great elder Wu Youzi took the data and went to the top of the stand to ask the other elders of each peak if they had any suitable disciples.
If a disciple is accepted as an inner disciple, the team's total score will naturally increase a lot.
As for individual rankings, they will not change.
Of course, the rewards obtained will also increase.
Two of the elders walked up to Wu Youzi, pointed to the names on the list, and whispered.
Both of them seemed to have favorite disciples who were willing to be accepted as inner disciples.
After Wu Youzi listened, he took note of it and prepared to go down below to give extra points to the team of two of his disciples.
But at this moment, an old voice suddenly came from the highest point of the stands: "Junior Brother Wu, come up, I have something to say to you."
When Wu Youzi heard this, he immediately took the list data and walked up.
"Senior Brother Mo, could it be that you also have a disciple you like and want to take him into the inner sect?"
Wu Youzi came to the high platform and asked with a smile on his face.
Mo Jiufeng snorted coldly and said, "Why take him into the inner sect? I have taken a liking to a disciple and want to take him in as my direct disciple."
As soon as these words came out, Wu Youzi was stunned.
At this time, the other peak masters next to them also immediately started speaking.
"Junior Brother Wu, I also like him and want to accept him as a closed disciple."
"Hmph, I have already made an agreement with that boy's master, Junior Brother Wu, to record him directly in my name."
"Old man, how dare you be so arrogant! Think I don't exist? Then boy, I'm going to make a decision!"
Several respected old men suddenly started arguing angrily again.
When Wu Youzi saw this scene, he froze on the spot with a look of astonishment on his face.
These old guys haven't accepted disciples for several years. It's all their disciples who are accepting disciples. Why are they suddenly accepting disciples in person today, and are they robbing them?
"Brothers, what is going on here? Which disciple do you want to accept? Are you sure it is not an inner disciple, but a direct disciple?"
Wu Youzi was filled with doubts and asked quickly.
But several people were arguing and didn't seem to hear what he said.
Wu Youzi could only look at the woman in red at the top and said respectfully: "Sect Master, what is going on?"
Fairy Zixia paused and said: "Kingto branch disciple, Chu Feiyang, you just need to announce that he has been accepted as a direct disciple. As for who he belongs to and which peak he belongs to, there is no need to announce it yet, I will work with him The peak masters will discuss this later."
Wu Youzi was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Jingdu branch disciple, Chu Feiyang...it turns out to be that boy..."
Then he quickly lowered his head, found the name on the list, and wrote it down.
He wanted to ask something else, but Mo Jiufeng on the side immediately urged: "Junior brother Wu, go and announce the result quickly. We will take that kid back to the hall later. As for who he will belong to, huh, then It depends on which of us is more capable!"
When Wu Youzi heard this, he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He immediately turned around and walked away, feeling even more shocked and suspicious.
What kind of virtue and ability is that boy? Didn't he just defeat a disciple of a late-stage martial artist? Why are these old guys so anxious? It looks like we have to go to the main hall to fight later.
The disciples gathered in the audience were already eagerly awaiting the results.
Wu Youzi hurriedly told the elders in charge of scoring the list and what had just happened.
When the elders heard this, their faces were filled with astonishment.
"Personal disciple? How many peak masters are competing for it?"
Several people looked at each other in disbelief.
"Who is that disciple? What's so special about him?"
One of the elders asked doubtfully.
Wu Youzi smiled bitterly and said: "At the helm in Kyoto, Sun Jiang's disciple is named Chu Feiyang, and he is only at the middle stage of martial arts. As for what is extraordinary, I don't know. Anyway, the ones above are vying for it. It seems that he will get it later. I still have to fight."
"fight?"
As soon as these words came out, the nine elders looked at each other again
Wu Youzi hurriedly whispered: "Hurry up and give a score. Several peak masters are urging me, and the sect leader is also waiting. I will probably go to the main hall to discuss who the disciple should be."
Upon hearing this, the nine elders immediately looked at the list and began to think.
"If you are accepted as an inner disciple, you can double the points for the branch. As for the direct disciples..."
Several people discussed in low voices and decided.
All the disciples in the audience, as well as the helmsmen of each branch, were all looking forward to seeing what happened.
Next to Jin Song, Yun Wanrou, who was being supported by the fat female disciple, had recovered a little. She rearranged her makeup and was looking at the stage quietly.
Sun Jiang was also surrounded by disciples. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and waited calmly.
Another half-stick of incense time passed.
Wu Youzi finally walked onto the stone platform with the results of the discussion among the nine elders.
The noisy voices in the square immediately fell silent.
Everyone held their breath and looked towards the stage.
The entire square was completely silent.
Wu Youzi first glanced at everyone below, and then announced: "The results are out. Next, I will read out my personal rankings first."
"First place, Qingzhou Branch Disciple, Gongsun Wushuang!"
"Second place, Yuan Cheng's helmsman disciple, Jiang Zhe!"
"Third place..."

In terms of personal ranking, Wu Youzi ranked fifty people in total.
The top fifty disciples will receive generous rewards based on their specific rankings. As for the disciples ranked beyond fifty, there will only be some small rewards for participation.
After the individual rankings were read out, there was some discussion below.
But it soon became quiet again.
Because Wu Youzi continued to read the rankings of each branch.
"First place, Qingzhou Branch!"
"Second place, Jiujiang branch!"
"Third place, Kyoto helmsman!"
When the name of the third-place helmsman was read out, not only others were surprised, but Sun Jiang was also surprised.
"It turned out to be third place!"
Sun Jiang was both excited and surprised.
Zhang Yuanshan and others were all shocked, wondering if they had read it wrongly?
No matter what, their team cannot be ranked in the top three, right?
"Master, what's going on?"
"Yes, Master, how did you rank? How did we rank in the top three? I think it is difficult to rank in the top ten, right? We are only a few disciples, and we don't even have a late martial arts disciple. Although Senior Brother Chu won the battle He is a disciple of a late-stage martial artist, but it can’t be that exaggerated, right?”
"Did you get the score wrong?"
When several people heard this ranking, there was no surprise or excitement, only doubts and suspicions.
They simply couldn't believe the result.
Of course, what was even more unbelievable was the person at the helm in Shuicheng next to him.
When Jin Song heard the result, he was stunned and stayed for a while. Fang realized it and said: "It's a mistake, it must be a mistake... How could they be ranked third? They are the only two disciples who have entered the top ten of the overall list. Impossible, absolutely impossible..."
The disciples behind him also had surprised expressions on their faces.
"Eighth place, Shuicheng sub-rudder!"
Hearing this ranking, Jin Song's face suddenly became even more grim.
"Eighth place, how can it be only eighth place?"
Jin Song looked at the stage and said again: "The score must have been calculated incorrectly. It must have been calculated incorrectly. When Wanrou becomes an inner disciple, her total score will at least be doubled...and our overall results are not bad... …”
Lei Yang, the eldest disciple, whispered from the side: "Master, is it possible that there are too many outstanding disciples this year, and many disciples have been selected as inner disciples? Or... Junior Sister Wanrou, as a disciple of the late martial arts master, was... If a disciple in the middle stage of martial arts is defeated, the points given...will be less?"
After hearing this, Jin Song frowned, pondered for a moment, and said: "I'll ask later, maybe there's something wrong with the scores. Our ranking may be fine, but the ranking of the Kyoto branch... hmph, although they are We beat Wanrou, but the overall score is definitely not as high as ours, and Wanrou will get extra points if she becomes an inner disciple... They don't even have a late-stage martial arts disciple, and the overall disciples are not as strong as my disciples. With that, What puts us in so many places?”
At this time, on the stone platform, Wu Youzi was still announcing the rankings.
After the rankings of all the helmsmen were announced, Wu Youzi paused, glanced down, with a smile on his face, and said: "The performance of all the helmsmen this year is pretty good, and I hope to continue to work hard next year. Next, I will do more Congratulations to the two women who have been selected as inner disciples. You can guess which two lucky disciples they are."
As soon as these words came out, the audience immediately exploded.
"Wow, someone was directly selected as an inner disciple. How lucky he is."
"There are actually two people this year, I guess they are the top two, right?"
"One of them must be number one on this list. The female disciple with the axe. What's her name? She seems to be called Gongsun or something. She is indeed very powerful."
"Hey, if you are selected as an inner disciple, your training resources in the future will be many times that of ours... Sure enough, the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker... I'm afraid that in a few years, we won't be able to keep up with them. ..."
While everyone was in mixed moods, discussing and speculating with envy, Jin Song finally showed a smile on his face.
He looked at the girl beside him with a kind face and said with a smile: "Wanrou, don't be nervous, you don't have to go on stage later. After this is over, I will take you to Jian Peak and formally kneel down to worship your master. Wait. Tomorrow morning, you and your master will go and pay homage to your sword master. The master of the peak is Fairy Linghu. Although Fairy Linghu is young, her cultivation and talent are top-notch. You must not be careless. If you can get Fairy Linghu's favor when the time comes, you will be able to win the favor of Jianfeng. Cultivation resources are available to you, if..."
Having said this, he immediately lowered his voice and whispered: "Wanrou, if you practice well, you will still have a chance to be favored by Fairy Linghu, and maybe she will accept you as her direct disciple. That’s when you will truly soar to the sky. However, you have just become an inner disciple and you still need some time to practice. Don’t rush it. You must perform well in Jianfeng and earn more glory and achievements for Jianfeng..."
Yun Wanrou listened to his instructions quietly, nodded repeatedly, and said with firm eyes: "Master, don't worry, my disciple will definitely live up to your expectations."
At this time, Wu Youzi on the stage paused for a while and then began to announce the names of the two lucky people who became inner disciples.
Everyone in the audience immediately held their breath and became silent.
"Elder Sun Chongyang of Chaoyang Peak is willing to accept Qingzhou branch disciple Gongsun Wushuang as an inner disciple!"
As soon as these words came out, all the disciples in the audience said: "As expected, she must be there."
At this moment, Yun Wanrou raised her head, raised her chin, raised her breasts, and looked at the stage with burning eyes, waiting for the next name.
Although she looked calm, her face was already full of excitement, her heartbeat almost stopped, and her palms were full of sweat.
Jin Song next to him also had a smile on his face, clenched his fists in his sleeves, and stared at the stage expectantly.
Wu Youzi continued to read: "The second disciple is Bai Zichuan from Baidi City. Elder Yang Ming from Beiwang Peak is willing to accept him as an inner disciple!"
The audience suddenly became restless.
There were cheers, sighs of regret, and voices of reluctance or envy.
The people at Shuicheng's helm were frozen on the spot, dumbfounded.
Jin Song's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he said blankly: "How...how could this happen...obviously..."
Yun Wanrou's face turned pale, her body was trembling, and she was almost unsteady on her feet.
But at this moment, Wu Youzi on the stage suddenly said: "Now, there is another good news to tell you. This year is destined to be an extraordinary year for our Lingxiao Sect! In this Lingxiao preliminary test, in addition to selecting In addition to the two inner disciples, now we have to choose another direct disciple!"
As soon as these words came out, not only the people in the audience were shocked, but also the guests from other sects in the audience were shocked and their expressions became solemn.
A direct disciple is the most important disciple of a sect. When the time comes, he will inherit many powers of the sect, and may even inherit the position of the sect leader!
Most of the direct disciples are extremely talented people with brilliant talents and great prospects, and they have achieved their status through many years of training and hard work.
Every sect attaches great importance and caution to the identity of its direct disciples.
Of the one hundred inner disciples, there may only be two direct disciples at most, which shows how rare and precious the direct disciples are.
Unexpectedly, today, Lingxiao Sect would accept a direct disciple in a small preliminary test!
The warriors from other sects were naturally very curious as to what kind of disciple he was that could be favored by the senior officials of Lingxiao Sect and be directly accepted as a direct disciple.
There must be something extraordinary about that disciple, and he might be a powerful opponent of their sect by then, so they were both curious and worried.
Everyone in the audience was talking a lot.
In the stands, the guests had complicated expressions and had their own thoughts.
Jin Song, who had been desperate just now, suddenly became excited again. He turned to look at his disciple and said in a trembling voice: "Wanrou, could it be..."
Yun Wanrou's face, which had just turned pale, turned blood red in an instant. Her whole body was shaking with excitement. She held her breath and looked at the stage motionlessly, her heartbeat almost stopped.
It must be her...it must be her...
That Uncle Wei had already agreed last night...
Uncle Wei must have told Master Linghu Peak about her talent for swords, so that Master Linghu Peak decided...
Yun Wanrou was so excited that she was shaking all over, her teeth chattering, and she almost filtered out all the sounds around her. She looked at the stage with all her heart, ready to hear the name that made all the warriors in Shuicheng envious and jealous...
Wu Youzi stood on the stage, raised his hand, and asked everyone to be quiet.
The audience immediately returned to silence.
Yun Wanrou opened her eyes wide, her whole body stiffened, and she waited motionlessly.
Wu Youzi then announced loudly: "The lucky disciple who was selected as a personal disciple is the disciple of the Kyoto branch, Chu Feiyang!"
"Buzz——"
Yun Wanrou's head suddenly buzzed, and then her body trembled, her eyes went black, and she fainted again...
And Jin Song, who was standing next to her, staggered and almost couldn't stand steadily, muttering: "How could it be... How could it be..."
On the other side.
Zhang Yuanshan and Dao Jie were also stunned after hearing this name.
And behind them, Nangong Meijiao also had a look of astonishment on her face.
"Dear...disciple?"
After a moment of stagnation, she suddenly thought of the bet she made with him last night.
