Chapter 56 Meeting Hot Shot

Originally, Lu Xiaoran really did not want to come out. However, he saw that the two sides were about to fight. If that happened, it would be even more embarrassing.

Helpless, he could only step forward.

“Sect Master, sorry I’m late.”

Sect Master Chen, who was about to attack, suddenly trembled when he heard this voice. Then, he turned around in disbelief. When he saw that it was Lu Xiaoran, his eyes could not help but turn slightly red.

Then, he quickly walked over and patted Lu Xiaoran on the shoulder, his voice emotional and somewhat choked.

“Xiaoran, you’re finally here. I thought that you had been killed by the Demon Sect and would never come again.”

“Uh…”

Lu Xiaoran was somewhat speechless. This sect master had also been bullied by the Heaven Sword Sect. When he saw Lu Xiaoran, it was as if he had seen his savior. “Thanks to Sect Master, and the fact that it was relatively dark that night, I was able to lose them.”

“It’s good that you’re back.”

Patting Lu Xiaoran’s shoulder again, Sect Master Chen turned around and raised his chin slightly. His entire demeanor was clearly somewhat different from before.

Just now, he was helpless and furious. Now, he had a look of disdain and arrogance.

“Wu Fengyun, our Heaven Demon Sect’s array master, Elder Xiaoran, is back. Your Heaven Sword Sect better get ready. Just you wait!”

Wu Fengyun glanced at him in extreme disdain.

“Do you really think I’m that easily frightened?”

“We’ll see.”

“Who’s afraid of who?”

Both sides snorted and entered their respective tents.

The few people from the Heaven Sword Sect had solemn expressions.

“Sect Master, I think that guy surnamed Chen looks up to that brat. Could that brat really have some tricks up his sleeve?”

Wu Fengyun smiled coldly.

“What’s there to be afraid of? Looking at his age, he’s at most twenty to thirty years old. At this age, even if he starts cultivating in his mother’s womb, it’s impossible for him to have much success.”

After a pause, he stopped laughing and said seriously,

“However, you guys are also very right. Although I don’t know what that Chen guy is trying to do, he’s not that kind of self-righteous fool. I’ll start meditating and cultivating now. Once the array formation meeting begins today, I’ll show the Heaven Demon Sect my might again!”

On the Heaven Demon Sect’s side, after Lu Xiaoran was invited into the tent, the First Elder immediately brought a cup of spirit energy tea.

Lu Xiaoran was somewhat flattered.

“First Elder, you’re too polite. I can do it myself.”

The First Elder shook his head and stuffed the spirit energy tea into Lu Xiaoran’s hand.

“We didn’t protect you well and caused you to wander outside for a month. This cup is our apology to you.”

“No, you can’t. You’re all Xiaoran’s seniors. You shouldn’t be so polite.”

“Yes, yes. This cup of tea is not all to apologize to you. Also, we want you to help us wash away our previous shame.”

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoran could only take the spirit energy tea. However, he did not drink it and instead asked,

“Is our Heaven Demon Sect really that tragic? I remember that Elder Wang and Elder Tie’s attainments in array formations are not weak either. Why did they lose to the Heaven Sword Sect by so much?”

The sect master shook his head and sighed. The other elders’ expressions were also somewhat dark.

The First Elder said,

“To tell you the truth, Elder Wang passed away in that town.”

“No way? Elder Wang’s cultivation has already reached the Soul Refinement Realm!”

In fact, Lu Xiaoran had long noticed that there was no longer any aura of Elder Wang here. The divine sense of a fourth level Essence Realm expert was not weak.

However, for Lu Xiaoran, life was like a play and everything depended on one’s acting skills.

He was currently acting as a small Spirit Realm expert.

Everyone sighed. “Originally, it wouldn’t have been necessary for everyone to work together to deal with that Elder of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. However, who would have thought that when he was at the end of his rope, he would actually directly detonate himself? Elder Wang was caught off guard and was killed.”

“That’s too bad.”

“After that, we came to the Black Tortoise True Sect and participated in the array formation competition. Elder Tie was in charge of it, but Elder Tie’s array formation attainments were much worse than Elder Wang’s. The array master from the Heaven Sword Sect is Wu Fengyun! His cultivation is inferior to our sect master, but he spent his free time studying array formations. Therefore, he suppressed our Heaven Demon Sect for two consecutive rounds.”

Lu Xiaoran rubbed his temples.

He did not expect the competition between the 100th and 80th place to be so tragic!

If he went up and used his full strength, they would probably directly become the champion, right?

om

It seemed that he had to focus and be more serious during the competition.

However, he also did not want to use too much strength and make these people dumbfounded.

Elder Tie thought that Lu Xiaoran was afraid and hurriedly consoled,

“Xiaoran, don’t be afraid. We all believe you. We’ve seen the array formation you set up in the sect. It’s basically not a problem for you to enter the top twenty.”

The Sect Master also patted his shoulder and smiled.

“Xiaoran, don’t worry and go to the competition. Do your best. In any case, with you around, our Heaven Demon Sect will definitely be able to defeat the Heaven Sword Sect.”

Lu Xiaoran’s face twitched. It seemed that the sect master’s goal had something to do with the Heaven Sword Sect.

He and the Heaven Sword Sect’s sect master, Wu Fengyun, really had special feelings for each other. It was a pity that the two of them were not a couple.

At this moment, a melodious bell sounded from outside. The sect master and the others were immediately overjoyed.

“It’s starting, Xiaoran. Today’s competition has begun. Let’s go quickly.”

“Uh… okay.”

Lu Xiaoran followed the people from the Heaven Demon Sect to the competition ground. He saw many public signs beside the competition ground.

On it were the rankings of the various sects.

The Heaven Demon Sect’s ranking was 101 in one battle and 99 in the other. Their average ranking was exactly 100.

However, Lu Xiaoran’s attention was not on the Heaven Demon Sect but on the name at the top of the ranking.

Xiao Bei!

He was from Jiang City and did not belong to any sect or faction. He was at the peak of the tenth level of the Spirit Realm and had won the first two matches.

Lu Xiaoran’s heart skipped a beat.

There seemed to be a problem with this name!

Xiao!

Wasn’t this the standard surname for those hackers?

Moreover, he was from Jiang City and did not belong to any sect or faction. How could he have reached the peak of the tenth level of the Spirit Realm by himself?

Damn, could it be that this was the bastard who destroyed Yun Lige’s entire family and even snatched his fiancée?

Unfortunately, Yun Lige was not here. Otherwise, he could have gotten him to confirm it.

However, just as Lu Xiaoran was feeling puzzled, the crowd began to boil.

“Look, Master Xiao is here.” “Master Xiao is indeed worthy of being a dragon and phoenix among men. At such a young age, your attainments in array formations are already so deep. Your future is limitless!”

Hearing this extremely familiar line, Lu Xiaoran was almost certain without even looking at her or asking Yun Lige.

Damn! A hacker!

He was definitely a hacker!
