Three hours have passed, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of the competition has passed, and those who can still hold on to the ring at this time are undoubtedly the talented disciples in the Sword Sect, and there are only a few hundred of the more than seven hundred.

And among these hundred, there are only a few people who can really rely on mastering the power of sword qi and skillfully using it to dodge the attack of the sword pillar, and there are no more than ten people including Qin Shi.

Without the help of the power of sword qi, no matter how strong the cultivation is, in the end it is fruitless, and in the competition, there are people falling all the time.

In the end, there were only a dozen disciples left.

At this time, Qin Shi was already able to use the power of sword qi very easily, the power of sword qi was like the blood in his body, constantly swimming and flowing in his body, he held the water in his hand without a trace, and with a slight wave, a dazzling sword light immediately shot out.

He smiled with satisfaction: "The power of this sword qi is really extraordinary, with this power, my use of kendo swordsmanship has increased several times." ”

"Of course, any alien power is extremely powerful. The demon nodded secretly.

Bang!

And at this moment, a loud bang sounded in the ring.

I saw that in the ring not far away, there was a sudden inexplicable explosion, and the stone slabs of the earth were shattered into powder, and a strong heat wave came to the face.

Qin Shi's heart was cold, he subconsciously jumped back, and his handprint quickly flipped: "Relic mantle!"

A golden pagoda that protected him very quickly.

Bang!

And that's it, the strong aftermath still collided and deformed his golden pagoda, and the tiles above were all blown out.

Qin Shi bared his teeth violently and scolded secretly: "What's the matter? This power is several times stronger than the attack of the sword pillar, what will produce such a powerful power?"

"It seems to be that little girl. "Evil Ways.

Qin Shi was stunned for a moment, and then his curious Zhang Ling'er frowned violently.

I saw that where Zhang Ling'er was, a bottomless pit appeared out of thin air, and all the surrounding earth was shattered, and even the sword pillar in front of her was shaken out.

Qin Shi frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

"I don't know, looking at it like this, it seems that it was caused by the disharmony in her own body, it should be that she wanted to control the power of the sword qi, but the explosion caused by the failure to succeed. The demon analyzed.

"Is there such a thing?"

Qin Shi looked at it intently, and sure enough, as the demon expected, the countless sword qi powers around Zhang Ling'er materialized and turned into golden sword lights, and it seemed that all the sword blades were pointed at Zhang Ling'er very resistantly.

"Not fused? It stands to reason that she shouldn't, she is Zhang Hun's granddaughter, there is no reason why she can't fuse the power of sword qi. Qin Shi asked puzzled.

The demon shook his head: "That's not necessarily, no one can absorb the power of xenos by virtue of talent, and the little girl who should have told you before that donkey Ruhua should have told you that all xenomorph powers have unique abilities, and if you want to devour them and use them for yourself, you have to pay a great price." ”

Qin Shi nodded, this was indeed mentioned to him by Donkey Ruhua, just like if you want to absorb the power of purgatory, you need to endure endless suffering in the world.

The demon continued: "The same is true of the power of this sword qi, if I am not mistaken, the price of wanting to control the power of this sword qi is to have extraordinary swordsmanship and comprehension of the way of the sword. ”

Qin Shiwan suddenly came to his senses, but then frowned again, and said, "However, in terms of swordsmanship and comprehension of swordsmanship, she should be no worse than anyone present, right?"

"That's not it. The demon shook his head with a smile and said: "Although this Zhang Ling'er is Zhang Hun's granddaughter, she has not practiced swordsmanship in the Sword Sect since she was a child, and what she inherited is only Zhang Hun's spiritual power inheritance, but there is indeed no swordsmanship at all, and from her, I can feel more about it, but it is my fierce demon clan, the mastery of evil energy." ”

"I see. Qin Shi nodded clearly and said, "In this case, it is indeed possible, but how can I master it? My situation should be similar to hers, right? I have not focused on swordsmanship." ”

"Indeed, in terms of swordsmanship, you may be far inferior to Haoyue, but fortunately, over the years, you have been using a sword, although your understanding of swordsmanship is insufficient, but experience has made up for this for you. The demon laughed.

"Is that so?" Qin Shi was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of joy: "If it weren't for the crooked hit, I guess I would be in this explosion right now, right?"

The demon nodded nondeniably.

Qin Shihou exhaled in fear: "It's really scary." ”

"Ling'er!"

Seeing this on the highest glory platform, Zhang Hun stood up suddenly, his old eyes flashing with gloom.

Bang!

And suddenly, in the smoke caused by the explosion, an extremely strong wave of black qi shook out, like a ferocious ghost, and the fierce fangs were devouring the power of the sword qi.

A jade hand poked out from the ruins, and grabbed a wisp of sword qi with one hand, and grasped it in the void.

Rumble!

The power of that sword qi was shattered and vanished in an instant.

An embarrassed figure jumped out of the huge pit, Zhang Ling'er at this time was blue-faced, the explosion just now was too powerful, and most of her skirt was shattered.

"Hmph, if you can't use me, what's the use of me keeping you?"

Zhang Ling'er snorted coldly, and then her jade eyes were cold, and she glared at the huge sword pillar.

"Ghost Shadow Thousand Kills!"

"Roar!!

Immediately, Zhang Ling'er tore apart the space in her chest, and thousands of ghosts rushed out frantically, like an overturned dungeon, and in an instant, the sword pillar was trapped by the ghosts.

Rumble!

The earth below the sword pillar shattered directly, and the sword pillar all let out a howl and tremble.

Thundered!!!

There was a loud bang, and it was unbelievable that the sword pillar collapsed at this moment.

In an instant, the audience was dumbfounded, and even Qin Shi stood up in shock.

"Is this true?"

"I, my God, she, she actually destroyed the pillar of sword qi?"

"What a terrifying attack power......!"

Zhang Ling'er's actions made the countless elders in the elder table frown for a while, and Fang Qing's jade eyes also flashed cold light on the glory platform.

Wanyue was also moved, and then she suddenly smiled: "Hehe, this is interesting." ”

Bang!

Soon after Zhang Ling'er destroyed the Sword Pillar, several more disciples were overwhelmed by the onslaught of the Sword Pillar and were finally eliminated.

It wasn't until there were only ten people left in the audience that the law enforcement elder stood up, he looked at Fang Qing, Fang Qing's comprehending jade finger flicked, and ten majestic sword lights shot out, and the sword pillar on the ring immediately stopped, turning into a lifeless stone pillar again.

When the stone pillar was destroyed, the shortlisted spot had already appeared.

In the end, the remaining ten disciples are also the participants in the finals, namely: Qin Shi, Haoyue, Yunyan, Meow'er, Su Xu, Duyu, Long Tingyan, Su Yan's subordinate Yan Yi, and Liu Yutong from the 12th group of the preliminary round, and Zhang Hun's granddaughter Zhang Ling'er.

Among them, it is worth mentioning that it should be Zhang Ling'er and Meow'er, Zhang Ling'er doesn't need to say much, her shortlisting is too special, and she is the only one in the history of the Sword Sect who can destroy the pillar of sword qi.

As for Meow'er, it can be regarded as an exception, she did not rely on the power of the sword qi to insist on the offensive of the sword pillar, she and Zhang Ling'er, she did not have any mastery of swordsmanship, and the reason why she was able to enter the shortlist was completely by brute force, and she actually broke into the encirclement with the sword pillar hard-to-face.

This made Feng Sha's heart on the elder's seat even more worried, and a little gloom flashed in the old man's eyes.

"The places in the semi-finals have already appeared, and the ten disciples on the stage are the glory of my Sword Sect. ”

"The sect has prepared a rich reward for you, but the rest of the disciples don't need to be discouraged, we also see your efforts, and you will all have the opportunity to be reused after the competition. ”

"Okay, our annual disciple competition is here, it has reached the last critical moment, everyone has a temporary rest, and after half an hour, let's witness the last moment together. ”

The Law Enforcement Elder spoke, and immediately the countless elders of the Sword Sect began to maintain order, and sent all the injured disciples to the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion for healing.

Qin Shi and Haoyue left the ring and came to the place where Yuyue rested.

When Yuyue saw a few people, she was about to sit up with the pain: "How is it?"

Haoyue took the first step, held him down, and said: "Okay, don't get up, it's still strong to be injured like this, don't worry, in order to avenge you, I tried my best, and I, Shi, and Meow all entered the finals." ”

"Really?" Hazuki smiled happily, and then her eyes flashed unwillingly, and sad.

Seeing this, Qin Shi said: "Don't be too sad, take care of your injuries here, I will find a way to let you recover." ”

"That's it, don't you be dissatisfied, don't you still have Qing'er to accompany me? If I'm injured, and there is a beautiful woman around me who is willing to take care of me like this, I'll go out and find a place to cut off my hands and feet now. Haoyue grinned, and his smile was full of bitterness and self-deprecation, and shook his head: "It's just a pity, I don't have this Yanfu." ”

When Qin Shi heard this, he frowned, but he didn't say much, he felt that it was not the time to tell him about Ye Fengyan, he just glared at Haoyue: "Don't talk about it here, there is something I want to say." ”

"What's the matter?" Haoyue said indifferently, but he immediately realized that something was wrong, because there was an extremely rare seriousness flashing on Qin Shi's face.

"In the next finals, you and Meow don't participate. ”

"Why?" the two of them objected excitedly at the same time: "I don't want it, I want to avenge my brother-in-law!"

"Yes, I don't, I managed to squeeze into the top ten, do you know what an honor it is? I still want to get a good ranking, and then wait until the future to show off with this. Haoyue pouted in displeasure.

Qin Shi sneered mercilessly: "Good ranking, do you think that among these people in the finals, who can you win with your strength cultivation?"
