reward

Inside the arena, the battle between the two became increasingly intense.

Although the Junior Brother, with his continuous footwork, dodged almost every attack, the Senior Brother, protected by his Profound Bird Adamant Armor Cultivation Technique, was not greatly affected.

After another exchange, the Senior Brother clasped his hands together, and his Aura suddenly surged.

His cultivation from the Three Yang Realm burst forth.

A flow of Qi circulated.

Profound Qi directly descended from the sky.

Boom!

The Junior Brother, whose figure had been constantly moving and shifting, only focused on dodging back and forth.

He didn't realize that this impact came from above his head.

The next moment, the Junior Brother collapsed weakly to the ground!

“Junior Brother is fine!”

The Senior Brother who launched the attack leaped over and helped the Junior Brother up from the ground.

The two exchanged a smile, then cupped their hands and retreated.

“I am thoroughly convinced by my loss to Senior Brother!”

“If Junior Brother were in the same Realm as me, it would be hard to say who would win or lose today’s match.”

The two, one tall and one short, one older and one younger, cupped their hands to each other.

Immediately following, applause erupted.

A match between the Three Yin and Three Yang Realm, being able to fight so brilliantly, already showed the extraordinary talent of both.

On the high platform.

Zhong Qing watched intently, only taking a sip of wine after the match concluded.

Ah.

Look at these Disciples.

Although their Realm wasn't high, their Heart-Nature was perfectly worldly.

Involuntarily, Zhong Qing thought of that woman who was arrogant to her very core.

If she doesn't want to become a Disciple, then she doesn't.

It doesn't matter.

Even if he missed one Disciple, he still had so many other good Disciples.

“Both of you stay.”

On the high platform, Zhong Qing spoke.

The Junior Brother, who had lost and was about to retreat into the crowd, was stopped.

The Grand Elder and the Six Elder, who had communicated earlier, looked at Zhong Qing’s action of drinking wine and exchanged another glance.

“Looking at Master’s stance, could it be that he’s going to give away this swallowing sky gourd?”

The Six Elder whispered stealthily.

Feng Buqun lowered his head and smiled, “How can you presumptuously guess Master’s thoughts? But I imagine Master would be reluctant to give it away.”

But the next moment, in the eyes of both of them,

A dazzling bright light appeared.

Zhong Qing waved his hand, and an incredibly radiant Aura floated down from the high platform.

The light slowly descended, then hovered in front of the 8,895th Disciple.

The 8,895th Disciple’s dark face was illuminated brightly by this Aura.

For a moment, he trembled slightly.

Outside the arena, the Elders looked at this light with some confusion.

What is this?

“This is your reward for winning.”

Zhong Qing’s voice descended from above.

The Disciple reached out his hand, his fingers trembling slightly. Although the Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers outside the arena couldn't discern the secret within the light, he, being so close, clearly felt its profound mystery.

Unparalleled Profound Qi enveloped it.

This, this was an Aura identical to the incomplete Venerable-grade scroll enshrined at the Phoenix Feather Sect’s main hall, at the mountain gate!

No!

It was even more powerful than that Aura!

He reached out, and the halo slowly descended.

It landed directly in his palm.

Whoosh!

The halo vanished, revealing a pair of small, golden-edged cloud-patterned boots with wings!

“Try them on.”

Zhong Qing’s voice sounded again. The next moment, the 8,895th Disciple put on the Cloud-Patterned Boots.

At this moment, several Elders and Feng Buqun all looked puzzled.

Hmm?

Why is it a pair of small boots?

At this time, the 8,895th Disciple had also put on the boots.

The moment his feet touched the ground, a gust of clear wind rose from the bluestone floor.

Everyone present was stunned.

Immediately after, they saw this broad and robust Disciple lightly tap the ground, and a phantom image actually appeared between his legs.

The next instant, there was a clear and incomparable Dragon roar!

Swish!

In an instant, the Disciple’s figure vanished from its original spot.

“Hahahahahaha!”

His incredibly hearty and unrestrained laughter appeared in the sky.

All the Sect members quickly looked up, wanting to follow the sound of laughter and track that figure.

But as soon as they looked up, the figure transformed into a streak of light and immediately appeared on another mountaintop.

Everyone turned their heads again, and the figure vanished again.

They turned their heads again, and it vanished again.

For a time, overwhelming, hearty laughter echoed in everyone’s ears.

But strangely, that figure could no longer be found!

Finally!

With a sound, he landed!

The Disciple returned to the arena.

Even as his figure landed, his laughter in the forest had not stopped.

At this, the entire audience was stunned.

What is going on?!

Such speed could even subtly touch upon spatial flow in a short period!

Feng Buqun’s eyes were wide at this moment; he stared intently at the Disciple’s feet.

He stared at the pair of boots he had thought were just a souvenir from the competition.

“Ah?”

Feng Buqun was bewildered, and the Six Elder beside him also felt a bit dizzy.

“Ah?!”

“Ah?!”

“Ah?!”

...

The rest of the Elders all opened their mouths wide.

The next moment.

Including Feng Buqun, all the Elders of the Phoenix Feather Sect flew over.

Feng Buqun stumbled, and he spoke in shock.

“This is!”

“This is! A top-tier Imperial-grade, infinitely close to Venerable-grade, a Half-Venerable Spirit Treasure, the Dragon Soul Surging Boots?!”

“The Half-Venerable Spirit Treasure rumored to carry a trace of the ancient True Dragon’s swiftness? It is said that this item was once used by a Venerable Realm mighty expert many years ago, and he once used it to walk on waves and ascend to the heavens!”

“Such a flowing figure, isn’t that precisely the Dragon Soul Surging Boots?!”

As soon as Feng Buqun finished speaking, those who knew what was happening.

Those who didn’t know what was happening, now all knew!

Feng Buqun suddenly looked up, and all the Elders also suddenly looked up.

Their Master casually gave out a Half-Venerable Secret Treasure for a small competition?!

One must know that the entire Sect only had one Venerable-grade Incomplete Manual Cultivation Technique!

This Venerable-grade Secret Treasure, was it just given to a Three Yang Realm Sect member?!

This, this, this!

This generosity!

One couldn't say it was great; one could only say it was greater than the heavens!

The Disciple immediately knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face. The exhilaration of having this Venerable-grade treasure under his feet...

It was beyond words!

However, before they could say anything, the next halo of light also descended.

In front of all the Elders and Feng Buqun, the close-by halo of light landed in front of the Junior Brother.

The Junior Brother blinked, clearly not yet understanding what this meant.

“Master… I lost.”

The Junior Brother looked at the halo, momentarily dazed.

And in the entire arena, everyone was now looking at him.

“Your performance was very good; this is what you deserve.”

“Just open it.”

Zhong Qing’s voice descended from the sky.

The Junior Brother tremblingly reached out his hand, seemingly lacking courage, or perhaps overly excited.

After reaching out his hand, he hesitated to touch it for a long time.
