"Bang!"

In the Zhang family mansion in Qingyun City, an exquisite teacup was smashed to pieces, and Zhang Shaoxiong's face was gloomy and terrifying.

"Chen Hu and the others failed? Aren't he a Qihai realm warrior? He can't kill a small seventh level of body refining?" Zhang Shaoxiong asked angrily at the person below.

"The head of the family, Chen Hu not only failed, but died. His Lingfeng gun was sold, and someone found his body in Yaqi Mountain." A servant who looked like a housekeeper said respectfully.

"Waste!" Zhang Shaoxiong snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "Did this incident leak the news?"

"There is no movement in the martial arts palace, and I think there should be no problem." said the butler.

At the same time, a yellow-maned horse ran into Qingyun City.

After returning to the city, Luo Xiu changed his clothes and came to the martial arts hall, preparing to go to the library to select third-grade martial arts.

According to the rules of the Martial Arts Hall, you can choose one of the third-grade martial arts in the seventh level of body refining, eighth level, and ninth level, and you also have the opportunity to choose one of the three levels.

Walking in the Martial Arts Hall, many students who knew Luo Xiu could feel that there were some obvious changes in him.

"This Luo Xiu's strength seems to be stronger. When he walks past me, I can even feel a sense of oppression."

"Can he have reached the eighth level of body refining? It is said that only when the eighth level of body refining martial artist condenses qi and blood will he appear in oppressive momentum."

"Impossible? Is it impossible? Is it still the seventh level of body refining a month ago, so how could it be that I could reach the eighth level of body refining so quickly?"

Many people were talking about it. It has been a month since Luo Xiu went to Mount Yama to experience it since the end of the last annual assessment.

In fact, it was not just because of the breakthrough in cultivation that Luo Xiu had changed. No one knew better than him about his transformation over the years.

Since the integration of the Life and Death Pearl, his physique and bloodline have been affected by the power of life and death, and have begun to enter a slow change.

In addition, his strength has been greatly improved recently, and his life-and-death fight has changed his mind and mentality, and his entire temperament has changed dramatically.

On the way to the library, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Luo Xiu.

This is an old man with all beards, wearing a white shirt, smiling, and carrying his hands behind his back, like an ordinary old man without any fluctuations in his breath.

But in Luo Xiu's eyes, the life veins of the old man in white could be clearly seen, and the magnificent power surged in the meridian acupoints, which was much stronger than those Qihai realm warriors Luo Xiu had seen.

Innate realm!

Luo Xiu could completely conclude that the old man in white shirt in front of him was a martial artist-level existence in the innate realm!

Not only that, the old man also looked familiar, the old man who was assessed by him at the Hunter Guild.

Obviously, this old man not only serves in the Hunter Guild, but also is an elder of Qingyun Martial Palace.

"Student Luo Xiu, pay homage to the elder."

There are five elders in the Martial Palace. Luo Xiu has only seen the elders who were in charge of the assessment and the elders who guarded the library. However, he has never seen the other three elders.

"Luo Xiu, come with me." Zhuang Nantian nodded and said with a smile.

After the words came, Zhuang Nantian turned around and walked away. Luo Xiuxin was confused and followed, not knowing what the elder of the Martial Palace had to do with him.

Following the old man in white clothes, Luo Xiu came to the attic in a courtyard deep in the Martial Palace.

"Sit." Zhuang Nantian smiled.

Luo Xiu did not refuse and sat opposite the old man.

"I am the elder of the Martial Palace, Zhuang Nantian. We have met before." Zhuang Nantian said first, "Did you hear that the third grade of internal strength you selected in the library are Pure Yang Gong?"

Every martial arts student will register for martial arts selection. The other party knows the skills he has chosen, and Luo Xiu is not surprised.

"Yes, elder." Luo Xiu replied.

Zhuang Nantian's expression was slightly moved and said, "I see that your cultivation has reached the eighth level of body refining, and it has broken through again in just one month. This is not just something that can be achieved with good talent and qualifications. It seems that you have already practiced Pure Yang Gong?"

Seeing Luo Xiu nodding again to confirm, Zhuang Nantian suddenly laughed.

"Okay, okay, okay! If you can practice Pure Yang Gong in such a short time, no one among all the students in the entire martial arts palace can compare with your martial arts talent. Even if you look at the entire Yunlong County, your talent can rank in the top ten!"

Zhuang Nantian seemed very happy, looked at Luo Xiu and said, "There are two months left to be the martial arts competition ceremony of our Qingyun City Martial Palace. Do you have confidence?"

Luo Xiu naturally knew about the martial arts competition. The martial arts palace in Qingyun City is held every year, mainly ranking the elites in the eighth level and ninth level of body refining in the advanced class.

The higher the ranking, the better the rewards you receive.

"The student has just been promoted to the intermediate class, and his cultivation level is just beginning to enter the eighth level of body refining. I am afraid he can't compare to the senior brothers in the advanced class." Luo Xiu said modestly.

Zhuang Nantian smiled, "You don't have to underestimate yourself. With your talent, you can get the attention and training of the Martial Palace. However, if you want to obtain better martial arts and more cultivation resources, you need to rely on your own strength to strive for it!"

...

Through a conversation with Zhuang Nantian, the elder of the Wu Palace, Luo Xiu was even more excited.

As Elder Zhuang said, better conditions for cultivation require strength to strive for, and every year's martial arts competition is an opportunity to strive for.

As for those students who do not even have the qualifications to participate in the martial arts ceremony, it is impossible for the Martial Palace to give them a little resources.

This is the law of survival of the fittest!

Taking a deep breath, Luo Xiu was very confident in himself. With his own strength, it was not difficult to get a good ranking in the martial arts competition. Even as long as he was willing, it would not be a problem to win the first place.

Leaving the attic, Luo Xiu went straight to the second floor of the library and chose a sword technique that he had been thinking about day and night, the Thunder Sword Technique!

This sword technique focuses on the degree of degree. As the saying goes, the world's martial arts can only be fast and not broken. When the sword is drawn, it is as fast as thunder, like a ray of lightning, making the opponent unable to defend against it and does not give the opponent any chance to react.

There are 1,300 low-grade vital energy stones in the storage wrist guards. After choosing the sword technique, Luo Xiu went to the weapon shop first.

When fighting with Chen Hu, the Qingfeng sword broke because ordinary weapons could not resist the power of the warriors.

In the weapon shop, Luo Xiu looked around and saw a low-grade warrior of a human-level warrior. Due to the different materials and forging techniques, the power will vary, so the price ranges from 300 to 800 yuan of low-grade Yuanqi Stone.

And among combat soldiers, the price of weapons in the sword category is relatively high, because most of the warriors use swords.

A long sword made of tungsten iron attracted Luo Xiu's attention.

This sword does not have too many gorgeous and exquisite shapes. The sword body and hilt are both black, giving it a quaint and primitive flavor.

Luo Xiu reached out to pick up the sword. His sword body was slightly heavy, much heavier than an ordinary long sword. There was a word engraved on the hilt of the sword, "Dark".

Immediately afterwards, Luo Xiu used the internal energy to inject blessings, and waved it a few times, feeling quite easy.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this sword?" Luo Xiu asked casually.

"The guest officer has such a good eye. This sword was obtained by other hunters from ancient ruins. It was identified by the founder. It is made of special material. Even the top-grade warriors in the human grade cannot be damaged at all." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Oh?" Luo Xiu didn't know if the shopkeeper was exaggerating. The levels of war soldiers were strictly divided. Generally, low-level war soldiers could not resist the slashing of high-level war soldiers. Even if they were not broken, they would be damaged.

"However, the power of this sword is a little less. Among the low-grade warriors of human grade, it is relatively ordinary. If the guest official wants it, he only needs 800 low-grade energy stones." The shopkeeper continued.

"Eight hundred?" Luo Xiu widened his eyes and said angrily: "How can ordinary low-grade war swords be so expensive? I see that some war swords with a power of comparable to those of human-level mid-grade war swords are only about eight hundred."

The eight hundred low-grade Yuanqi Stones are not a small number. The wealth of many Qihai realm warriors is only more than one thousand low-grade Yuanshi.

"Although the power is average, the sword is made of special material and can withstand the slashing of top-grade warriors in the human-level, so the price is naturally relatively expensive." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

In fact, this sword has been here for several years. It was purchased for 300 low-grade Yuanqi Stones, and it also attracted the attention of its special material.

However, many founders cannot recognize what material they are. They want to return to the furnace and forge it, but they cannot be melted at all. Therefore, for several years, no one has ever been interested in it. After all, for warriors, the power of warriors is relatively more important.

However, the founder behind the weapon shop felt that the sword might have an extraordinary origin, so he marked a price of 600.

The reason why I sold 800 yuan was that the shopkeeper of this weapon shop was because Luo Xiu was young. Maybe if he really bought it back, wouldn’t he be able to earn two hundred yuan more Yuan Qishi?

"It's too expensive, I don't want it." Luo Xiu said and wanted to put the sword back to its original place.

"This guest official, we can still discuss the price." The shopkeeper's eyelids twitched and he quickly said.

"How about seven hundred yuan? The price can't be lower." The shopkeeper gritted his teeth, as if he had made a very difficult decision.

Although Luo Xiu was young, he was not at all unfamiliar with the world. When he saw the shopkeeper's appearance, he knew that the other party wanted to cheat him.

"I think the shopkeeper doesn't seem to have any sincerity. There are many weapon shops on this street. I'll take a look at the other one." Luo Xiu snorted coldly and was about to leave.

When the shopkeeper saw this posture, he was suddenly panicked. If the customer really left, he would have lost a little bit of the Chengdu city.

"Six hundred! Customer, this time it's really the lowest price. If you are not satisfied, I can't do anything about it."

Although the price of 600 is slightly more expensive than that of ordinary low-grade swords, the special material can withstand the slashing of advanced warriors, and the price is not outrageous.

Luo Xiu did think that the sword was a bit special. He pondered for a moment, then took out the Yuanqi Stone and bought it.

Seeing Luo Xiu buy it, a smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face again.

"The whole body is black, and the hilt of the sword has the word "dark", so I will call you the Shadow Sword!" Luo Xiu was quite satisfied and returned the sword to the sheath and carried it behind his back.

This was his first combat soldier in his life, and he was quite excited.

Leaving from the weapon shop, Luo Xiu went to the elixir shop again, intending to buy some elixirs to assist in improving the level of cultivation.

The elixirs sold in Qingyun City are all first-grade and second-grade. Qi-raising pills are ordinary first-grade elixirs, which are most suitable for martial artists in the body refining realm. They can speed up the penetration of vital energy and condense internal energy.

In addition, there are other elixirs for each stage, such as tendon refining pills, bone quenching pills, and Qi and Blood Pills.

Luo Xiu came here this time and planned to buy Qi and Blood Pills. This first-grade elixir is most suitable for martial artists who refine their bodies and condense Qi and Blood.

Just as Luo Xiu was selecting the pills, a gust of fragrant wind sniffed into his nose, and a sound rang out, "Shopkeeper, do you have the Ice Spirit Pill?"

Luo Xiu looked over and saw a woman in a white plain skirt standing beside her, with delicate and undulating curves appearing and looming.
