Build a faction from scratch

I don't know who won.

Xiao Ranran propped up her body and walked towards the stone plate.

The two wooden plaques that had been randomly thrown into the stone plate were now placed squarely, and the pattern of formations only lit up under the wooden plaque on the left.

Ye Junwei followed behind Xiao Ranran, saw this situation, and silently took away the wooden sign on the right.

Before leaving, Ye Junwei clasped his fists at Xiao Ranran very gracefully, and said "Congratulations".

Xiao Ranran picked up the wooden sign blankly, and asked in his mind: "There is no name on this wooden sign, how does he know he lost?"

001 answered thoughtfully: "After the formation on the stone plate is activated, the wooden signs will be automatically arranged. Those who enter the wing first are on the left, and those who enter the wing later are on the right."

"I see."

Xiao Ranran understood the reason, and immediately swallowed the elixir and began to meditate.

The previous battle had consumed at least half of her spirit energy, and she didn't know what would happen in the third battle.

Half an hour passed quickly, and before the third contestant came in, Xiao Ranran woke up first.

This time, it was a middle-aged monk who was nearly fifty years old who entered the room.

One sleeve of his Taoist robe was cut off, exposing his injured arm.

"Forehead……"

Xiao Ranran, who had accepted the concept of respecting the elderly and loving the young since childhood, stood there hesitantly. After struggling for a while, he bowed his hands to the monk who was gradually approaching, and said, "My lord, Xiao Ranran."

The middle-aged monk seemed to see Xiao Ranran's hesitation, and said with a hearty smile: "My name is Yan Kuangbo. You don't have to worry, fellow Daoist Xiao. I am much older than you, and I have more knowledge than you. It is unknown who will win and who will lose between us. Don't hold back."

Yan Kuangbo's words awakened Xiao Ranran—the middle-aged people in the cultivation world are different from the middle-aged people in Blue Star.Although their appearance is middle-aged, their actual age may have exceeded a hundred years ago.As for Yan Kuangbo, who lived for so long, he probably saved a lot of money. If he was as rich as Ye Junwei and went out with a bunch of magic weapons, she might not be able to win.

I really took it for granted...

Xiao Ranran put away her contempt, nodded and said, "I see."

Yan Kuangbo didn't say any more, took out the wooden sign, and threw it into the stone plate together with Xiao Ranran's wooden sign.

Same as the previous two competitions, Xiao Ranran stood still holding the sword, waiting for the opponent to attack.

And Yan Kuangbo glanced at Xiao Ranran's long sword, and drew a sword from behind.

He is an authentic swordsman, but it is a pity that even if he has mastered many swordsmanship, he cannot change the fact that his physical aptitude is too poor, so he has been stuck in the middle stage of foundation establishment for many years.

Yan Kuangbo didn't immediately pour sword energy into his saber, but ran towards Xiao Ranran holding the sword.

The long sword fluttered in his hand, so fast that it was almost impossible to see the shadow of the sword.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Ranran realized that she was no match for Yan Kuangbo with just swordsmanship alone.

Just when she was debating whether to seek help from 001 for victory, Yan Kuangbo was already less than ten feet away from her.

Gritting her teeth, Xiao Ranran gave up asking for help, determined to rely on herself alone.

She must cut off her dependence on 001 and cultivate her fighting consciousness.And this time the competition is a good start.

Holding the long sword across his chest, Xiao Ranran concentrated on distinguishing Yan Kuangbo's sword shadow with his heart.

Looking at it like this, Xiao Ranran really made a discovery - although she couldn't see where the long sword was, she could roughly judge that the long sword was moving according to the trajectory of the fork.

Before he had time to think about it, Xiao Ranran quickly took two steps back to open the distance. When Yan Kuangbo's sword was only an arm's length away from him, he turned the long sword across his chest halfway, and swiped from bottom left to top right.

With a sound of "boom", the two swords intersected, making a crisp sound of knife and sword.

That's right!
Xiao Ranran held back the soreness, and wrestled with Yan Kuangbo's long sword with his numb wrist.

At the same time, she quickly transformed a water arrow behind her, directing the water arrow to fly towards Yan Kuangbo's shoulder.

The water arrow grazed Xiao Ranran's ear with a "swoosh", and plunged obliquely downward towards Yan Kuangbo's chest and abdomen.

Seeing this, Yan Kuangbo took a step back and blocked the water arrow with his saber.

Taking advantage of the victory, Xiao Ranran pursued, took advantage of Yan Kuangbo's gap to block the water arrow, and immediately turned sideways to avoid Yan Kuangbo's sword, lowered his arm, and stabbed the long sword.

Yan Kuangbo didn't panic at all, he simply drew a sword flower to block Xiao Ranran's attack.

Missing a hit, Xiao Ranran immediately retreated away from Yan Kuangbo.

The swordsmanship routines she has learned are limited, and she will have to reveal her secrets with a few more moves.

But Yan Kuangbo obviously wouldn't let her escape so easily.

Yan Kuangbo's sword circled in the air and went straight to Xiao Ranran's abdomen.

In desperation, Xiao Ranran took a serpentine step, quickly turned sideways, and avoided the sword.

However, just as she dodged the sword, Yan Kuangbo's sword changed from a straight thrust to a horizontal cut, chasing after her.

Xiao Ranran immediately backed away holding her breath, pointing her toes together, narrowly avoiding the sword.

Yan Kuangbo's saber brushed against her abdomen, almost cutting her Taoist robe.

Without waiting for Xiao Ranran to think about his next move, Yan Kuangbo who retracted his sword kept moving forward, and once again raised his sword to stab Xiao Ranran.

This time, there was no dazzling sword shadow.Xiao Ranran judged the position, concentrated on stretching out his hand, and blocked Yan Kuangbo's saber with his long sword.

However, in the next second, a gust of sword energy surged from Yan Kuangbo's sword along Xiao Ranran's own long sword, which immediately numb her wrist and made her long sword come out of her hand.

As if he had expected Xiao Ranran's reaction, Yan Kuangbo turned the sword in his hand, stepped forward quickly, and stabbed the long sword into Xiao Ranran's abdomen.

It happened so fast, before Xiao Ranran had time to react, she only felt a pain in her abdomen, and she caught a glimpse of the red light flashing on the stone plate, and she was judged to have lost the game.

Yan Kuangbo pulled out his sword and walked to the stone plate.

Hey, I let others dye the Taoist robe red twice before, and now it's my turn after all.

Xiao Ranran didn't say much, took out a Rejuvenation Pill from his sleeve, and swallowed it immediately.

The effect of the Eighth Grade Rejuvenation Pill was good, as soon as she swallowed it, the pain in her abdomen was relieved by more than half, and the bleeding was quickly stopped.

Walking to the side of the stone plate and taking back his wooden sign, Xiao Ranran politely cupped his hands at Yan Kuangbo and said, "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Yan."

Yan Kuangbo smiled slightly, and said: "It's just because of my age. Fellow Daoist Xiao has very high aptitude. If it's not that he is not familiar with swordsmanship, it's still unknown who will win and who will lose."

I have to say that Yan Kuangbo's words had a slight consoling effect.

After all, she has only practiced for half a year, and she has only learned a small part of techniques and swordsmanship. There are many shortcomings everywhere, so it is not surprising that she lost.

However, true knowledge comes from practice, and she gained a lot from this competition.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ranran quickly left Xin Chou's room.
