Chapter 27 Eight Peaks Gathering Jiuhua Sect, white marble square, in front of Tianhua Hall.
The blue sky is clear and clouds are lingering.
The three characters "Qionglou Yuyu" and "Tianhua Palace" are majestic and majestic.
A rainbow bridge is submerged in the sea of clouds, leading directly to the Tianhua Palace.
Entering the Tianhua Hall, one can see the first of the Eight Peaks sitting upright on the stage.
From the middle to the side, from left to right, they are the leader of Jiuhua Sect, Hua Qing, the first of Qingyun Peak, Zixuan, the first of Bauhinia Garden, and Jian.
The first peak is Ling Jiannan, the first one is Huo Jiaofeng on Shu Peak, the first one is Ba Dao on Dao Peak, the first one is Yi Block on Qingyun Peak, the first one is Ghost Youming on Netherworld Cave, and the first one is Medicine Taoist on Medicine Peak.
There is an empty seat on the far right, which was originally the first seat in the Wuming Cave.
Now that the Wuming Cave exists in name only, this seat is only vacant.
There were more than ten elders listed under the stage, and Zizhu was among them.
All the disciples bent down and saluted and said, "I have met the headmaster, distinguished leaders and elders."
Hua Qing said loudly: "Disciples, you are all the leaders of the younger generation of our Jiuhua Sect.
It has been a thousand years since the Jiuhua Sect was established.
In order to prevent the disciples from slacking off in their cultivation and to support the young and promising ones, the founder of the sect specially established this This grand event of the Nine Meridians Martial Arts Competition is now in its 32nd year.”
The disciples were amazed that it was held every thirty years, so it had a history of more than nine hundred years.
Hua Qing seemed to be very satisfied with the expressions of everyone, and then said: "In order not to bury the talents in this Nine Meridians Competition and avoid losing the sweat of the sea, the number of people has been increased to sixty-four.
As elites of each peak, in terms of qualifications and talents, They are all outstanding.
This Nine Meridians Competition is an excellent opportunity for you to show your strength.
Those who perform well will be carefully cultivated by the leaders of each peak, and may eventually become the next leader of each peak, or even Jiuhua.
"Zong leader" The disciples were in an uproar, their expressions changed, and their faces showed extreme yearning and excitement.
Becoming the leader of a peak, or even the headmaster of Jiuhua Sect, is the dream of all disciples.
Qin Yu couldn't help but his expression condensed.
Only then did he realize that the purpose of the Jiumai Martial Arts Competition was to select and train the next successor of the Jiuhua Sect.
Hua Qing said seriously: "Of course, even if you perform well, if you want to sit at the top of each peak, you must work harder."
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes" Hua Qing said no more and pointed to the open space on the right side of the hall.
Everyone looked around and saw a square mahogany box placed there.
The box was closed, except for a small hole on one side that allowed an arm to be inserted.
"In the red box, there are sixty-four small wooden plaques, with the numbers from one to sixty-four written on them.
Each person will draw one, and the competition will be based on the number drawn.
One pair is sixty-four, and two is six.
Thirteen, and so on, do you understand?"
Hua Qing said.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Hua Qing said: "In that case, you can just draw lots."
Immediately, everyone's eyes were focused on the red wooden box, and wooden cards were drawn in turn.
The heads and elders of each peak also became nervous, hoping that their disciples would draw good lots and not lose in the first round.
Encountering genius disciples from various peaks, they were eliminated.
Qin Yu also drew a wooden card, and the number on it was three, but he didn't know who was the one who drew number 61 in a duel with him.
Seeing that the disciples had finished drawing lots, Hua Qing said: "This is generally how the Nine Meridians Competition is.
You go down to rest first.
After noon, the Nine Meridians Competition will officially begin."
All the disciples said in unison: "Yes, Master."
After leaving the Tianhua Palace, Qin Yu, Chang Sheng, and Lianmeng Diewu walked toward each other as if they had made an agreement.
The four of them met together, with excitement rising in their eyes.
The four of them hugged each other and could clearly hear each other's heartbeats.
Feeling the steady breathing of the three people, Qin Yu felt that the whole world seemed to have become quiet.

The four of them hugged each other as if they owned the whole world.
In the Tianhua Hall, only the eight peak leaders were left among the elders.
Hua Qing put away the smile on his face and glanced at the seven leaders one by one.
Ling Jiannan, the leader of Jianfeng sitting on the right, said: "Brother, headmaster, do you have anything important to tell us?"
Hua Qing nodded, expressionless, and said slowly: "Huangqiu City, on the border of the Kingdom of Hua, was massively attacked by the Kingdom of Duo.
This invasion by the Kingdom of Duo included many sect masters."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
The world is in chaos, countries are competing for hegemony, and conquests continue, and the various sects with their masters gathered have become the targets of various countries vying to win over.
Sects select talented disciples from various countries and obtain the resources needed for their respective cultivation.
And countries were given the patronage of sects.
The Jiuhua Sect is the country-protecting sect of the Kingdom of Hua 1 At the head of the Bauhinia Garden, Zixuan said in a condensed voice: "The Kingdom of Hua and the Kingdom of Duo have always had grudges, but the two countries are equally powerful, so they can't help each other.
Although the two countries have been at war, there has been no large-scale war.
Now The Kingdom of Duo suddenly comes with sect masters, what does it mean?"
Hearing Zixuan's words, the faces of the leaders became more solemn.
The two countries usually have small-scale conflicts, which are not major events, but once there are sect masters involved, they have to be vigilant.
"What are your plans, Brother Master?"
said Huo Jiaofeng, the leader of Shu Peak.
Hua Qing pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The Duo Kingdom has to guard against this move.
If it is allowed to attack Huangqiu City, the Hua Kingdom's thousands of miles of territory will no longer have a barrier, and it can only be trampled by the Duo Kingdom's cavalry."
At this moment, Yi Butong, who had always been expressionless, suddenly frowned and said, "Then what does the head brother mean?"
Hua Qing showed a smile on his face and said: "Speaking of it, this is also an excellent opportunity for training.
Although there are many talented people in the younger generation of the sect, most of them have been staying here on Jiuhua Mountain and have never gone out to practice.
As the saying goes, a sharp edge is tempered, so I plan to select ten disciples, led by a leader, to go to Huangqiu City together, firstly to help the country of Hua resist the enemy, and secondly, to gain experience.
What do you think?
" Yi Butong remained silent, his brows furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The other six people nodded in agreement, and Ling Jiannan, the leader of Jianfeng, even praised: "This plan is very clever.
If there is a leader following, nothing will happen to the disciples."
It’s dangerous.
It’s really a blessing for Jiuhua Sect that the head brother is far-sighted.”
Hua Qing was quite impressed by Ling Jiannan's words of praise, and said with a smile: "Since the leaders of each peak agree, the matter has been decided."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Hua Qing said: "Okay, if nothing happens, you can go to the back hall to rest."
"Brother Headmaster, I have something to do."
Ling Jiannan suddenly said.
"Oh, come and listen."
"You all know in your heart that the Nine Meridians Martial Arts Competition is held every thirty years.
Although it is called to encourage disciples to practice, it is actually to select candidates for the positions of leaders and masters of each peak.
Those selected are all the best disciples of each peak, and the sect "Leader."
Ling Jiannan's voice paused and everyone was silent.
The essence of the Nine Meridians Martial Arts Competition was naturally very clear to everyone.
Only Yi Butong looked at Ling Jiannan, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Ling Jiannan glanced at Yi Butong and continued: "Although the candidates for the first position of Qingzhu Peak in recent years are the strongest among the disciples of Qingzhu Peak, during the Nine Meridians Martial Arts Competition, they could not even enter the tenth place.
The first divination operator is even outside the twenty.
Junior Brother Yi did not rank well in the last Nine Meridians Martial Arts Competition, and there is no extraordinary talent in Qingzhu Peak now."
Everyone's expressions condensed and they looked towards Yi Butong, only to see that there seemed to be a layer of frost on Yi Butong's face.

"Therefore, for the sake of the inheritance of the Qingzhu Peak lineage, I suggest that the candidates for this session of Qingzhu Peak should be selected from the disciples of other peaks
