C11 An Amazing Song

A fist and a palm meet. With a loud bang, a strong wave erupted from the middle. The stone floor under their feet was slightly broken. Xu Yi was also pushed back a few steps by the Qi, and more Qi was pushed towards Tian Ji's direction.

Xu Yi used the Dragon-subduing Eighteen Palm with all his strength this time, and his strength was dozens of times stronger than usual. Because of this palm with all his strength, half of the Spiritual Qi in his body was consumed in an instant. This was a palm that was comparable to the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. How could Tian Ji withstand it?

"Ah!"

Tian Ji let out a cry and was instantly pushed back. He flew up into the air and landed on the edge of the martial stage with two cracking sounds. Not long after he landed on the ground, a cracking sound was heard from his body. It was not the sound of bones breaking, but the sound of armor breaking.

"This! He actually sent Tian Ji flying with a single strike!?"

The onlookers had been cheering for Tian Ji a second ago, but now that this scene had happened, they were all dumbfounded.

One should know that Tian Ji's cultivation base was one grade higher than Xu Yi's!

"F * ck! Can you be any more shameless? And wear armor!" Xu Yi was not happy that he had sent Tian Ji flying. Instead, he shouted. He had never seen such a shameless person. It was fine if he was stronger than him, but he had never seen such a shameless person before. You are still wearing armor!

Tian Ji felt a little dizzy. He staggered to his feet. Even though he was wearing armor, he had suffered some internal injuries under the impact of the force. He did not look well at the moment. He stared at Xu Yi and said, "Cultivation resources are also a symbol of strength. If you have the ability, you can wear them. I don't have any objections."

Xu Yi was speechless. A better Grade Two armor required 100 Reputation Values. Moreover, Grade Two armor was no different than not wearing any clothes to him. Only a Grade Three armor would be useful. However, he really could not bear to part with those 300 to 400 Reputation Values.

"Looks like I'll have to trouble the Xiao Qi in the future. After all, she has already reached the level of a divine thief..."

There was nothing he could do about the shameless Tian Ji. All he could do was to fight with his strength. He took out a few tier 4 and 2 Storage Bags from the Storage Bag to replenish his spiritual energy. Although it would take a long time to recover, it would take a lot of time. It didn't have much use, but it was like it didn't have any.

Tian Ji's expression was dark and gloomy. He was extremely angry that Xu Yi had sent him flying. However, he would also find an excuse for himself. He thought to himself that he had underestimated his enemy, so he put his hand into the Storage Bag with a cold expression and took out a grade three spirit sword. His entire body was filled with killing intent, and he was unusually focused.

"F * ck you! In the past, I was afraid of you, but now let's see who's afraid of who!" Xu Yi smiled disdainfully. He took out a tier three medicinal Spiritual Zither from his interspatial Storage Bag and placed it horizontally in front of his chest.

Tian Ji snorted and rushed towards Xu Yi at high speed. He shouted, "Half Moon Sword Art, second style, Half Moon Impact!"

Initially, there was still a distance of more than ten meters between the two of them. After Tian Ji used his martial skill, his speed instantly increased. In just a moment, he was more than three meters away from Xu Yi. The tip of his sword pierced towards him.

Xu Yi was shocked, and quickly retreated. Without hesitation, he used the Dragon-subduing Eighteen Palm again. The shadow of his palm struck out, barely managing to break Tian Ji's attack. But at this moment, there was less than ten percent of the spiritual energy left in his body. If he hadn't consumed the medicinal Pill Medicine to recover his spiritual energy, he would have had no choice but to let Tian Ji slaughter him.

"F * ck, take my attack as well!" Xu Yi frowned and shouted. He flicked his finger on the zither and a string of zither Qi suddenly appeared in front of Tian Ji. In the blink of an eye, it struck his chest.

Tian Ji turned pale with fright. How could he dodge at such a close distance? Therefore, before he could react, he was sent flying out again with a bang. When he was flying in the air, the sound of armor breaking could be heard again, and cracking sounds could be heard.

Clap! Clap!

This time, Tian Ji was not as lucky as before. He directly smashed into the martial arts stage, cracked the floor, and fainted.

And because of Tian Ji's passing, the battle was declared to be over.

The audience who witnessed the entire martial arts competition did not know what to say at this time. They sucked in a breath of cold air with their mouths wide open and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

It was only after a few breaths that an uproar broke out. In particular, some of the older generation loudly chanted the word 'zither'.

A first-grade Foundation Establishment cultivator had condensed Qin Qi, which was extremely monstrous!

"Hmph, trash, you're asking for it! Don't let me see you in the future, or I'll beat you up every time I see you!" Xu Yi stood straight and mighty on the martial arts field. He did not care if Tian Ji was unconscious or not. Under the gaze of more than a hundred people, he spoke with a clear voice.

After cursing for more than a dozen times, Xu Yi finally finished venting the anger in his heart. He started to walk out. Under the gaze of more than a hundred people, he walked with vigorous steps and left majestically.

After this battle, Xu Yi's face was full of joy. Not only did he earn more than a hundred Reputation Values, he also expressed the resentment that he had been suppressing in his heart. Ever since he entered the Green Cloud Sect, he had been suppressed by Tian Ji for no reason. Every time, he had to resort to thirty-six schemes. It could be said that he was in an extremely sorry state. This time, it was rare for him to be able to hold his head high. How could he not be happy?

When You Youran returned to the courtyard, Xu Yi directly used a hundred Reputation Values to exchange for a tier three medicinal Spiritual Food. After he happily ate it, he did not waste any time and continued to cultivate.

He'd already understood that strength was the true path in this world!

...

Time flew by in a flash, and the third String Dao lesson arrived.

In these few days, Xu Yi mainly focused on cultivating the technique to increase his cultivation. Of course, the cultivation of the Zither Dao had not declined. Even the Dragon-subduing Eighteen Palm, he had to use it at least ten times a day!

It was not to become more proficient. After all, his knowledge had already reached its peak. It was just that his physical body had not met the requirements. The reason why he used it every day was because he had made a major discovery after that martial arts competition with Tian Ji! When he used the Dragon-subduing Eighteen Palm to deplete the spiritual energy and replenish it, it could actually increase the amount of spiritual energy stored!

This divine-grade martial skill actually had the effect of compressing the dantian's sea of vital energy and increasing the spirit energy storage!

Just because of this reason, Xu Yi could be said to be using the Dragon-subduing Eighteen Palm every day. After exhausting the spirit energy, he would eat cheap Tier 2 medicinal Pill Medicines, or circulate the technique to absorb spirit energy.

When he woke up this morning, Xu Yi also insisted on finishing a set of Dragon-subduing Eighteen Palm. After he finished practicing, he did not delay and went to the Zither Dao class on time. The location did not change. It was just that the plaque on the door had changed.

The courtyard was still crowded with people. Other than the women, there were also some men. However, there were not many men this time, only a dozen or so.

Xu Yi wanted to enter in a low profile, but he could not afford to stay in the open door. Suddenly, he was looked at by a group of women from the same class with praise. Some of the dinosaurs even looked at him with tender eyes. Lightning flashed. He felt a little embarrassed when he was looked at. He laughed dryly and left the dinosaurs, looking forward to the morning class.

Ten minutes later, the bell rang and a group of people entered the piano room in an orderly manner.

Murong Xue had arrived early this time. The person standing next to her was no longer a woman, but a middle-aged man. His name was Lin Zhiqi, an elder of the Zither Peak. He was in his forties and was in the Core Formation realm.

After one experience, Xu Yi was no longer as serious as last time.

"The first test of the guqin skills. You can't sleep when you play the song."

After the question was drawn up, Bai Qin stared at Xu Yi. Seeing him shake his head violently, she laughed lightly and went to sit on the stage first.

It was not that Xu Yi did not want to contribute to the class, but he had never heard of any sleepless nights, let alone playing.

Bai Qin played the piano seriously. She played the song for four minutes. Xu Yi, who was listening attentively, shook his head. He still felt a little less emotional and less spirited.

Sixty points!

After an hour, after a round of playing, class nine Bai Qin had the highest score of sixty points. Class five, on the other hand, had the highest score. It was a man who did not look outstanding and had a low profile. He had obtained sixty-three points!

When the others finished playing, only Xu Yi did not play. After listening to the music for nearly 200 times, he had a rough memory and should be able to play it. So, under the gaze of the women in his class, he slowly walked to the piano stage.

"Who is this man?"

"Why do I feel that the women in their class are all looking forward to his performance?"

"Why do I feel like he's acting a little pretentious? Even the slow-motion camera is out..."

"What the heck, this guy is a little pretentious! Look at his actions, he looks like an expert!"

Seeing Xu Yi walking leisurely, especially on the piano stage, the cool movements before he played, Class Five was bustling with discussion. Xu Yi was playing the piano, closing his eyes, and raising his hand. He was indeed prepared to act cool.

Xu Yi closed his eyes and started playing according to his imagination. There were some places that he changed. Some changes were acceptable and he used his emotions well. When he played, he was also a little quick-witted. However, the score that appeared in the end was too shocking.

Fifty points!!

"Mud coal, this big brother was full of airs just now. I thought he was very crafty. Turns out he was just a piece of trash! My score is even higher than his."

"No, he plays better than us! Why is it only 50 points? Could it be because of those changes?"

"It sounds nice, but there are still a few things wrong with the tone, just like how he just learned this song?"

All kinds of discussions arose in the two classes. Although there were people who praised Xu Yi, there were even more people who scolded him for acting cool.

"Xu Yi, don't tell me you haven't learned this song?!" Bai Qin asked with a bitter smile. She could hear some inconsistency in the song. Some parts were better changed, but some parts of the tune were not right.

Xu Yi nodded. After all, there was a slight difference between what he heard and what he was actually playing. The sound of the music could be heard from dozens of meters away from the stage. It was inevitable that there would be some changes in Xu Yi's ears.

Bai Qin was speechless after knowing the answer. These songs were something that even a musician had to learn, okay? She felt that she needed to help this junior brother...

Class 9 lost three points in the first round and the second round went on as scheduled.

"Create a song with the moon as the theme."

Xu Yi's eyes lit up when he heard that. He immediately thought of the song "When the Bright Moon Appears.

Although he wanted to be the first to play the song, he tried his best to hold back his restless heart when he thought that the main character would usually be the last to play. An hour passed. Bai Qin stood up straight and smiled at Xu Yi. She then went on stage to play the song.

After Bai Qin finished her song, she obtained 65 points. Her score was still the highest now.

After waiting for an hour, it was finally Xu Yi's turn. He was still full of airs. He leisurely walked onto the stage like a slow camera. He played the guqin and closed his eyes. He lightly raised his hand, looking extremely detrimental.

"Tsk tsk, this fellow is here again. Everyone is waiting to see a good show." The few men from Class 5 looked at Xu Yi with amusement, and they started to discuss in low voices with the people beside them.

They had once known Xu Yi, and they did not think highly of him. They once again thought that he was putting on airs. That was what they thought, but it wasn't the same for class nine. A group of girls were staring at Xu Yi's every move with anticipation in their eyes. Some dinosaurs took out a sign from their Storage Bag. The sign had Xu Yi's name written on it and was full of love...

Xu Yi's heart was as calm as still water. He slowly lowered his finger and started playing the music.

It was a slightly cold night. A lonely man was holding a cup of invited moon in his hand. He looked at the moon and missed his friends. He missed the past. The music was relaxing at times. At times, it made people feel nostalgic. At times, it made people sigh. When the song was about to end, the nostalgia became even more intense. It made people cry.

When the song ended, the ancient house became quiet again, and the sound of a needle dropping could be heard. After a long time, there were a few girls who couldn't hold it in anymore, and they began to cry. They missed their families, and even some male disciples were like this, silently crying.

When the song ended, the stones on the stage buzzed, and two dazzling numbers appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Surprisingly, it was 90!!

"Nine, 90 points! How is this possible?"

"Impossible! It's impossible for anyone in the Green Cloud Sect to be able to compose a score of ninety points!"

"In the past thousand years, the number of people who can create a score of 90 points is less than two hands! How is it possible for him to create a score!?"

"This song can be compared to the" Dream Dream "that Empress created when she became famous!"

..." "All kinds of exclamations continued.
