The so-called spiritual-level martial arts is actually third-level martial arts. However, this level of martial arts is already quite powerful, and everyone is accustomed to calling it spiritual-level martial arts.
Yun Xiao knows that spiritual-level martial arts can only be practiced with at least the power of the perfect True Yuan Realm. At realms below that, it is impossible to master spiritual-level martial arts. This time, his master was able to be bestowed with this martial art, which also shows the other party's confidence in him.
"Xiao'er, with your current cultivation level, there is absolutely no problem in practicing the first three forms of the Soul-Severing Palm. But for the latter six forms of palm techniques, you must act according to your ability and must not be overly eager for quick success and take risks that lead to backlash."
Martial skills cannot be cultivated haphazardly. Once one cannot control the flow of true qi in martial skills, then true qi will backlash. Minor injuries are already considered good. If one is unlucky, it is possible to become disabled directly.
Although he has confidence in Yun Xiao's talent, he still has to remind the other party.
"Master, rest assured. This disciple knows the limits." Nodding, Yun Xiao put away the Soul-Severing Palm secret manual while obediently replied.
With this advanced martial art, he believes that his combat power will definitely increase exponentially. In future battles, the chance of defeating opponents and saving his own life will be much greater.
"By the way, Master, this disciple went to the mission hall before. There, I heard people mention something called the college competition. I don't know what exactly is this so-called college competition?"
After putting away the secret manual of the Soul-Severing Palm, Yun Xiao suddenly remembered the college competition he heard at the mission hall that day. Regarding this, he has always been very curious. Just at this moment, he can ask his master.
"The college competition? It is a competition among disciples held by Leiyun College at the end of each year. It is also a competition to test the cultivation results of disciples. Calculating the time, in a few days, the college president will gather us elders together to discuss the matters of the competition."
Elder Yan has nothing to hide and casually explained to Yun Xiao.
"Then if one wants to participate in this competition, are there any requirements?"
"Of course there are requirements. Speaking of it, only True Yuan Realm disciples under thirty years old are eligible to participate in the competition. As for those veteran disciples over thirty years old, they have no eligibility to participate at all."
There are too many disciples in Leiyun College. Those outer court disciples are not worthy of the college's deliberate training and cultivation. And those disciples over thirty years old have already missed the best time for cultivation. Training them is also useless. Only those True Yuan Realm geniuses under thirty years old are the group that Leiyun College has always attached great importance to.
"If it's disciples under thirty years old in the True Yuan Realm, there must be several thousand people in the entire Leiyun College?"
He roughly calculated. If the disciples recruited by Leiyun College every year are similar to this year, then counting over a dozen years, the number of True Yuan Realm martial artists under thirty years old today is at least three thousand or more.
"More or less." Raising his eyebrows, Elder Yan seemed to have also made a simple calculation. Then he nodded and said.
"Master, this disciple also wants to participate in the college competition. Am I eligible?"
Narrowing his eyes slightly, Yun Xiao suddenly became full of interest in this so-called college competition. He knows that this is definitely the best opportunity to get in close contact with countless geniuses. Such an interesting thing would be too pity to miss.
"Uh, this......" Hearing Yun Xiao's words, Elder Yan's expression froze immediately and he didn't know how to answer.
In Yun Xiao's case, he is undoubtedly eligible. But in his heart, he really doesn't want Yun Xiao to participate in this competition.
As someone who has been through it, he deeply knows the fierceness of the competition in the college competition. Although the college has always stipulated that one cannot kill fellow disciples, every year in the college competition, there will be many incidents where people lose their lives due to 'accidental mistakes'. He doesn't want his hard-won disciple to become a victim of this year's competition.
"Hehe, the college competition is still about three months away before it will start. There is no need to discuss these in a hurry. Before that, you should obediently practice the Dragon-Capturing Formula and the Soul-Severing Palm. If you can achieve some success in cultivation within three months, this master can let you go and gain some experience."
He can't directly refuse Yun Xiao either, because he can see that Yun Xiao is really interested in the competition. In addition, in previous college competitions, there has never been a case where the personal disciples of college elders did not participate. If he doesn't let Yun Xiao participate, their master and disciple are also very likely to become the laughing stock of the entire college.
As for whether to let Yun Xiao participate in the competition, this matter still needs to be considered carefully.
"Thank you, Master. This disciple will definitely work harder and try to improve my strength a bit before the competition." He didn't think so much. In short, he must participate in such an interesting thing.
"Okay, are there any more questions? If there are, ask. If not, that's it for today."
The topic of the competition is not something he likes. If possible, he even hopes that Yun Xiao can forget about this matter.
"There is one more question. This disciple has heard more than one person mention something called the Destiny Ranking. I don't know what kind of situation is that Destiny Ranking?"
"You really have a lot of questions." Shaking his head, Elder Yan gave a wry smile and continued, "The Destiny Ranking is a ranking list of genius disciples in Leiyun College. The so-called Destiny Ranking means being destined by heaven. There are a total of fifty places on the entire ranking list. As long as college disciples under thirty years old are all eligible to compete for these fifty places. Once on the Destiny Ranking list, there will be cultivation resources provided by the college every month. Speaking of the top ten geniuses on the Destiny Ranking, the cultivation resources they get every month are really quite substantial......"
At this point, he simply told Yun Xiao one by one about the reward methods of the Destiny Ranking list. After hearing it, Yun Xiao was really shocked.
"Good heavens. For the last ten places on the Destiny Ranking, one can get a spiritual treasure over five hundred years old every month. And for the top ten geniuses on the Destiny Ranking, it is rewarded with Pure Yuan Pills. Even for the tenth place, one can get one Pure Yuan Pill every month. And for the first place, there are ten Pure Yuan Pills as rewards every month."
He had always heard about the Destiny Ranking before, but it was only today that he learned that the significance of this ranking list is here. If he can enter the top ten of the Destiny Ranking, it seems that he can get a considerable amount of cultivation resources every month.
"Okay, okay. That's it for today. It's getting late. You rest early. This master will come again tomorrow morning to tell you about the cultivation method of the Dragon-Capturing Formula."
He has discovered that Yun Xiao seems to be very interested in these fighting and killing matters in Leiyun College. But for him, now is not the time for Yun Xiao to do these things.
After giving Yun Xiao a few instructions, he no longer gave Yun Xiao a chance to ask questions. As he spoke, he turned and left.
"College competition, Destiny Ranking......"
After Elder Yan left, Yun Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, but he was still thinking about these two things.
"It seems that I have to work hard to improve my strength a bit. I must go and experience that college competition."
The hunting life since childhood has made him not know what fear is. And since it is a grand event held by Leiyun College to train its disciples, as a person of Leiyun College, how can he be absent?
