The newcomers' duel has officially begun.

Liu Nongjie, who had broken through to the Foundation Establishing Stage, was in closed cultivation in his house, and because of his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishing Stage, Liu Nongjie's energy was even more abundant than when he was in the Qi Practice Stage.

This was because the huge spiritual qi that Liu Renjie had absorbed during his breakthrough had not completely spread to his body, and some of it had been stored in the Spiritual Sea, so Liu Renjie only had to meditate and cultivate for two days before he was able to break through again.

Since Liu Nongjie had focused on stabilising and improving his cultivation over the past few days, he had not acquired the third sword move of the Heaven Opening Sword Technique.

Today was the day of the novice duel, and Liu Nongjie put on his Tianxuan Mountain Pro-disciple robes and went to the square to gather.

Inside the square were many disciples who had joined the sect at the same time as Liu Renjie, each of whom had been cultivating in the various mountain peaks for a month and a half, and each of whom had at least broken through to the qigong cultivation level.

When they saw the original presiding elder on the stage, they all had the good sense to shut their mouths.

Seeing this, the presiding elder also nodded slightly and said, "I'm glad to see that your strength has improved significantly in just a month or so. Firstly, today's newcomer duel will determine the top ten newcomer disciples of Xuan Tian Sect, as well as the rankings from twenty to one hundred."

"The twentieth to one hundred rankings for this newcomer duel were jointly conjured up by Senior Lin and the Patriarch to better analyse the more outstanding disciples. The competition method for the Rookie Duel is duel and dice, after drawing a number, you will go to the appropriate ring to duel.

After the Presiding Elder finished speaking, everyone clapped their hands, filling the Presiding Elder's small vanity.

Since the number of new disciples present was also several hundred, they were all allowed to draw lots before going to the fifteen rings to duel, with the winners moving on to the next round to fight the other winners again.

When Liu Nongjie heard about this, he also drew his own number first, and then went to a shady place where he waited for the newcomers to be selected.

At that moment, a finger poked at the back of Liu Renjie's shoulder, Liu Renjie unconsciously turned his head to look, a young girl with a smile was standing at the back looking at him.

The young girl was Lin Ziyun, she guessed that Liu Renjie would probably go back to the place where he had rested and waited during the previous rookie test, so after drawing lots, she also went to wait.

Liu Nonjie was shocked by Lin Ziyun's sudden appearance, but he quickly recovered and said, "Ziyun, are you sure about the newcomer duel?"

Lin Ziyun gave Liu Renjie a blank stare and said, "Do you think I would look at you less than when I was scared just now, hehehe".

After that, Lin Ziyun released his spiritual energy, an aura of the Foundation Establishment stage swept across the square, and most of the people looked at Lin Ziyun's "alien" with wide eyes.

Most of them looked at Lin Ziyun's "alien" with wide eyes because most of them had only cultivated to the seventh level of qi cultivation, and there were even many people at the second and third levels of qi cultivation.

Seeing this, the patriarch on the stage also congratulated Senior Lin next to him, while Senior Lin said without moving, "Don't worry, she has only just broken through to the foundation stage, and there is still a big show to come.

Liu Nongjie also heartily congratulated Lin Ziyun after sensing what could make Lin Ziyun proud, but as soon as he thought of Liu Nongjie's breakthrough a few days earlier than him, he immediately lost half of his strength.

Fierce looked at Liu Rengjie and said: "Liu Renjie, how much is your cultivation now?"

Liu Renjie was puzzled for a moment before he replied, "You'll find out when we face each other in the ring."

These words angered the already fierce Lin Ziyun to the point of stamping her feet.

The two then waited in the familiar shade.

After half an hour, Liu Renjie's name was called and they were to face each other in the third ring.

Upon hearing this, Liu Renjie signalled to Lin Ziyun, who was also cheering for Liu Renjie.

After entering the third ring, Liu Renjie met his first opponent, a student of the Knife Cultivator.

Knife cultivators are cultivators who use knife-type weapons, mainly cultivating with large knives, broadswords, and three feet.

For example, Liu Nongjie and Lin Ziyun used swords, so naturally what they cultivated was the sword way, while knife cultivators cultivated the knife way.

The knife is different from the sword, the knife itself has a dominant meaning, the great knife cultivator can use it to shock some low-cultivation enemies.

Liu Nongjie and the man across from him raised their hands to each other to show their respect.

"The eighth duel in the third ring, Liu Renjie of Tianxuan Mountain and Hu Biao of Wood Spirit Mountain, has officially begun."

The duel began at the command of the presiding disciple.

Liu Nongjie did not want to waste too much time in front of the screening, in order to maintain a good best state of mind is the most important, so it began to hold the sword rushed over, in the process of rushing forward frontal display of human sword three styles, a sword with a sword qi sword moves will be carried out.

Hu Biao felt threatened by this sword and thought, "Why is this sword so powerful?

A defensive sword move was performed to block the attack.

When the first sword of the Three Types of Human Sword touched the opponent's defensive move, a grinding and cracking sound was heard.

When the first sword ended, Hu Biao was wounded in his hands, but he seemed satisfied with the defensive move he had just performed, and as he was about to take his turn to attack, Liu Nongjie opened his mouth and said, "The second sword of the Three Styles of the Human Sword.

An even more powerful sword move was unleashed by Liu Renjie, and Hu Biao knew that if he could not block it even when he was at his peak, let alone now that he was still injured, he would not be able to block it.

Upon hearing this, the presiding disciple quickly used the formation arranged in the ring to teleport the two of them out of the ring and opened the defensive formation to block Liu Renjie's terrifying sword move.

The loud sound of the sword moves and the clashing defensive formation attracted the attention of the people in the other rings, but the battle was already over, Hu Biao left after congratulating Liu Renjie, and Liu Renjie also went back to the previous shady spot where the playful and cute figure was still waiting for him.

Returning to the shadows, Liu Renjie felt the rest of the people retreat a step and felt puzzled, so he opened his mouth to ask Lin Ziyun, "Ziyun, my appearance is very fierce and vicious, why are all the people retreating a step?"

Lin Ziyun laughed out loud, making Liu Nongjie even more confused.

After a few moments, Lin Ziyun's name was also read out, and the ring for the duel was the fifth ring. After it was Lin Ziyun's turn to gesture with Liu Renjie, Liu Renjie followed Lin Ziyun's pumping and cheering action to cheer him up.

Lin Ziyun smiled as she walked into the fifth ring, her opponent was a female disciple from Earth Formation Mountain, they clasped hands with each other and then began to duel at the command of the presiding disciple.

Lin Ziyun used her stance to constantly change positions to perform sword arts, the opposing female disciple could only passively use defensive formations to block the attacks.

After a sword art continuously broke the formation, the other student could only use her spiritual energy to continuously perform defensive formations.

As time passed, the effects of the rapid depletion of spiritual energy began to show, and the defensive formation could no longer be performed in one place.

Lin Ziyun saw the right moment to rush through the formation, pointing his sword at the female student's neck and saying, "I'm sorry.

The female student knew she couldn't win, so she thanked him and surrendered willingly.

After Lin Ziyun won, many people clapped their hands and applauded, after all, Lin Ziyun used a constant stream of attacks to make the other side reveal their weaknesses, everyone had already been attracted to the scene.

Liu Nongjie took a very short time to finish the fight, so more people didn't pay serious attention to this duel.

Lin Ziyun returned to the shadows and saw Liu Renjie clapping his hands to greet her. She put her hands in her waist and said, "How was it? It is great?"

Liu Renjie could only say "awesome" before telling her to do her best to keep her energy up for the duel later.

Lin Ziyun also smiled awkwardly upon hearing this.

At this point, Liu Renjie and Lin Ziyun's first match of the rookie duel was officially over, and after that, as long as they won two more matches, they would be able to enter the top one hundred and twenty-eight team.
