Chapter 82: South Bank Chosen

During the past thousand years, the south bank had always been outdone by the north bank In all of the Outer Sect Chosen battles which had been held, the majority of the final top ten were north bank disciples The south bank had never been able to achieve dominance, much less take the first place spot, which went to the north bank each and every time

One reason was that the north bank had four mountain peaks, while the south bank only had three More than a thousand years ago, things had been different Whether it was in ter, the disciples of the south bank had been the pillars of the sect, and no one had ever dared to tangle with theave their est in the entire Spirit Streaed, and the north bank was the most dominant They continuously secured victory in the Chosen battles, and as such, earned vast cultivation resources, which ensured that their battle prowess only continued to grow Furthermore, their practice of cultivation differed somewhat from the south bank, so different that many of the outside cultivator clans had come to view the north bank as the dominant force within the Spirit Stream Sect, and its effective leader

In the Spirit Streaic to control inani beasts!

For exa the sect, Bai Xiaochun had learned the Violet Qi Cauldron Control Art In contrast, the introductory art for north bank disciples was the Heavenspan Elephant Control Art!

During the Chosen battles held over the past thousand years, the south bank had suffered defeat over and over again That was especially true of the battles fought thirty years before, in which only one disciple from the south bank had ended up in the top ten That, of course, infuriated the elders and peak lords of the three mountain peaks of the south bank Afterward, they personally went out to look for new talented disciples, which was how Shangguan Tianyou and the other top Chosen cauan Tianyou, Lu Tianlei, and Zhou Xinqi were the trump cards of the south bank They were the apprentices of the peak lords, and had been meticulously trained until their cultivation bases reached the pinnacle of the eighth level of Qi Condensation In terms of battle prowess, they were already in a position to be able to defeat uan Tianyou was the enerally accepted as the number one Chosen of the south bank

Lu Tianlei was skilled with the Dao of lightning, and was extraordinary in his own right His lightningpraised hi him a spot in the top ten

Then there was Zhou Xinqi, who showed incredible skill in the Dao of hou’s personal apprentice, she also had astonishing ical techniques at her disposal

When Bai Xiaochun learned about the overall situation fronant at the despotic way the north bank acted

Filled with emotion, he swore to himself: “Just wait until I reach Foundation Establishment I’ll definitely cut those north bank Outer Sect disciples down a notch or two!”

As far as the south bank qualifying matches, and the subsequent Chosen battles, he wasn’t the least bit interested in the and killing weren’t his style He was a Prestige disciple, and the Junior Brother of the sect leader He existed on a higher plane of seniority, and didn’t feel that it was appropriate for hieneration

“Besides, ould happen if I didn’t win?” he thought with a dry cough “Wouldn’t that lose a lot of face for elder Brother Sect Leader? Forget about it I’ht about howjust for his Elder Brother Sect Leader, he decided that he should probably go burn some incense to his Master and coreat Bai Xiaochun didn’t thinkFatty Zhang as often as he could Every ti would try a spirit enhancement, Bai Xiaochun would use his turtle-wok to turn it into a success, which led Big Fatty Zhang into new realan to suspect that so on, but was so happy that he siot used to the situation, and caenius spirit enhancer

Considering the incredible level of self-confidence that he was building, his spirit enhanceer

Time passed Around began It was at that point that Bai Xiaochun got a notice fro round was hth level of Qi Condensation There were to be no exceptions

After scanning the jade slip, Bai Xiaochun yawned Assue, he continued his pill concocting

Three days later at dawn, bells filled the south bank, and Bai Xiaochun strolled out into the sect to see countless Outer Sect disciples hurrying along with very serious expressions Spirits rising, he joined the crowd ofpeople

Soon, he reached a certain valley behind the three e place, paved hite jade, in the e, open square, with four awe-inspiring coluons

Between each colu a fierce beast, extremely lifelike in appearance The ferocious nature of it all made the entire valley seethe with a bleak and violent aura

On one of the valley walls was a balcony, upon which nuhou was there, along with Xu Meixiang and the peak lord fro was present

The qualifying matches for the north and south banks were not held concurrently The south bank went first, followed by the north bank That was to ensure that the sect leader didn’t show partiality to one bank or the other After observing the south bank’s qualifying o to the north bank to watch theirs

Li Qinghou and the other peak lords sat near Zheng Yuandong, chatting amiably

Behind the Elder Zhou Some sat quietly with their eyes closed, others conversed in low tones A feere observing the disciples pouring into the valley

Bai Xiaochun walked along lazily until he was in the valley itself Looking around, he realized that he had never been here before Curious about the statues, he walked over to examine one more closely

As he neared the statue, he noticed that there was even fur on its surface, which rippled in the wind “These creatures al”

It was at this point that the sound of voices suddenly rose up from within the audience
