Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class

Chapter 328: The Racing Events Begin

In the sect’s meeting room.

“This is roughly what happened…”

Jiang Guihua provided an account about Xiao Huo and also played the recording of the alchemy competition.

Other than the five Peak Masters, Zhao Xuanxuan, Ma Qingxue, Guan Zexiao, and the higher-ups of the Lome Tribe were present.

All of them had matters to attend to, so they didn’t pay any attention to the sports meet after making an appearance at the opening ceremony.

After all, alchemy competitions were quite boring. They were not as popular as other events.

But…

After watching Xiao Huo’s pill refinement process, they could not help but regret missing such an exciting competition.

Xiao Huo’s refinement techniques were really cool.

Not only were his movements as smooth as flowing water, but he also was not sloppy at all. At the same time, his skills were superb, and he had a 100% success rate. What was even more remarkable was that the quality of the pills was very high.

“I can tell that this cultivator from the outer realm is most likely an alchemy expert.”

After watching the recording, Wang Zhixing expressed his opinion.

Others agreed.

Jiang Guihua said, “His refinement techniques, to speak frankly, are more advanced than ours.

“If he has no ill intentions and is willing to share his alchemy skills, it will definitely be very helpful to us alchemists.”

“Elder Jiang, I understand what you’re saying, but he’s from the outer realm after all. We absolutely cannot take the risk without knowing his details and background.

“The threat of the Beast Taming Corps has never disappeared.

“What if this cultivator was sent by them?” Wang Zhixing asked.

“Peak Master Wang, as to whether this person is from the Beast Taming Corps or not, you can leave that to me.

“I should be able to find out.” Guan Zexiao said confidently.

“You?” Wang Zhixing looked at Guan Zexiao.

Wang Zhixing did not know that Guan Zexiao had the ability to listen to the thoughts of others.

Guan Zexiao said, “I can give it a try.”

“All right!”

“Then let’s end the meeting here today!

“Also, this student called Xiao Huo is innocent. Don’t pressure him too much.

“If he needs anything, do your best to satisfy him within limits.”

Just like that, the meeting ended.

…

After the alchemy competition of the Qi Refinement group, there was a strong response from all over the world.

Especially about Xiao Huo.

His alchemy skills were unique and stunning. He became completely famous and gained a large number of fans.

Many students from the alchemy specialization watched Xiao Huo’s refinement videos repeatedly, trying to learn his techniques.

However, alchemy techniques were not something that could be learned just by watching. Even if they managed to imitate Xiao Huo’s movements perfectly, it would not be as good as having a deep understanding of it.

This was how alchemy was. Without in-depth guidance, learning was nigh impossible unless one was a genius.

Even so, no one gave up.

Even if they couldn’t learn anything, Xiao Huo’s refinement techniques were very cool. If they were to perform some of it in front of girls who didn’t know anything, they might land some romance.

The next day, the Foundation Establishment group’s alchemy competition began as usual.

The participants were not much different from the Qi Refinement group.

In the elimination competition, they had to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The Foundation Establishment Pill was more difficult to refine than the Marrow Cleansing Pill, but it wasn’t a big problem for Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In school, refining Foundation Establishment Pills was a compulsory course for them.

However, if they wish to get a high score, they would have to put in some effort.

Soon, amidst the cheers, the first elimination round for the Foundation Establishment group began.

There were more people who came to watch today’s competition than in the previous days.

The audience was full. Most of the new people were cultivators.

Since there were no more seats, they watched from the sky on their swords.

The organizers did not stop them.

This was because the arena was protected by a barrier. No matter how lively it was outside, it would not affect the inside.

The main reason for the increase in the audience came down to Xiao Huo.

Xiao Huo’s pill refinement was unprecedented.

The viewing rates of alchemy competitions, which originally weren’t high, were raised.

In terms of anticipation, it exceeded all other events.

Everyone was looking forward to whether there would be another dark horse like Xiao Huo in the later rounds.

However, after watching the elimination competition of the Foundation Establishment group, everyone was disappointed.

There were indeed dark horses, but there was no one as stunning as Xiao Yan.

After the elimination competition, the popularity of the alchemy competition plummeted, and the anticipation dropped by the day.

When it came to the points-based competition, there were still many empty seats in the audience.

The points-based competition was very stable. It was not as grand and magnificent as Xiao Huo’s match, where everyone was on the edge of their seats.

The dark horses did not counterattack, and the top ten placings were still clinched by the expected parties.

Overall, it was very boring, and a few people in the audience fell asleep.

On the other side.

Xiao Huo did not have any free time during this period. Every few days, there would be people coming to visit him to inquire about Dan Yangzi’s background.

Towards this, he acted extremely calmly, answering all questions, sharing whatever he knew.

Guan Zexiao had the ability to listen in on thoughts, so he gained an answer after his repeated questioning.

With the advancement of his realm, Guan Zexiao’s ability to eavesdrop had evolved.

For a person who has someone else’s consciousness in his body, Guan Ze could hear the voices of other consciousnesses.

That was why he was so confident in the meeting that day.

But even so, they still could not let Xiao Huo out.

Xiao Huo did not have many complaints about this.

If he had not been bewitched and provoked by Dan Yangzi back then, none of these things would have happened.

But there were no “ifs” in this world. Once it was done, there was no medicine for regret.

Time slowly passed.

The Immortal Cultivation University Sports Meet was in full swing.

After half a month of competition, the two unpopular events of alchemy and weapon forging ended.

The following events were more popular.

Everyone was looking forward to them.

After the weapon forging competitions ended, it was time for the races.

They were divided into one kilometer, ten kilometers, and a hundred kilometers races.

The speed of cultivators was different from that of ordinary people.

Ordinary people called it running, but cultivators used swords to fly.

The contestants were also divided into three levels: Qi Refinement Foundation Establishment and Golden Core.

Due to the restrictions of the venue, they could not allow a large group of people to race together.

In order for the competition to be fair, only 20 participants were allowed to compete at the same time.

If there were too many people on the racetrack, there would definitely be some collisions, which would definitely affect the results.

The race was divided into elimination rounds, group rounds, semifinals, and finals.

The rules of the elimination rounds were simple. The participants who completed the race within the allotted time would advance.

Take the one-kilometer race for the Qi Refinement group, for example. The participants needed to complete it within three seconds to advance.

For cultivators in the Qi Refinement realm, the speed of their Sword Kinesis Flight was generally a little faster than the speed of sound. However, how fast it was depended on one’s individual strength.

To complete a kilometer in three seconds was quite a challenge.

At this moment, the 20 participants were already in position on their respective tracks.

The swords under their feet were all forged by the organizers. The weight, size, and quality of these swords were basically the same, ensuring fairness.

With a loud bang, the one-kilometer race officially began.
