I Have A Disciple Simulator

Even a slight guidance from Lu Changsheng would benefit a Unity Realm Sword Cultivator greatly, and they would be more than capable of handling the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation in the future.

The Sect Leader of the Mysterious Lady Sect, who was at the seventh layer of the Unity Realm, also wanted to gain some Sword Dao comprehension from Lu Changsheng.

"Once the events here conclude, would Sect Master Lu be willing to visit our Ocean Flame Palace as a guest?"

"Our Wuling Valley is willing to exchange our Sect-Defending Skills for a portion of Sect Master Lu's Supreme Sword Skills."

The various Sect Leaders were sending messages to Lu Changsheng one after another, leaving him overwhelmed with responses.

Lu Changsheng could only smile wryly and helplessly. His fame spread far and wide after a single battle, not even sparing the Cultivation World.

Unity Realm cultivators, in hopes of increasing their chances of ascending to the Immortal Realm, pursued various high-level Cultivation Techniques and Elixir Pills.

Lu Changsheng was previously unknown, but after creating a Sacred Tier sword technique and defeating Sun Jian, he suddenly became a hotshot.

With Sun Jian claiming to be the top Sword Dao expert, naturally, by defeating him with swordsmanship, Lu Changsheng assumed his place as the number one in Sword Dao for this realm.

Lu Changsheng declined each offer graciously.

Having created a Sacred Tier sword technique far surpassing this realm's skillset, there were no longer any Cultivation Techniques here that caught his eye, except for those rewarding his disciples which might enter the sight of Dharma Eye of Lu Changsheng.

"Master is truly amazing to have defeated Thousand Swords Manor."

"Now we from Mount Shu can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

The people of Mount Shu were overjoyed. Originally prepared for Lu Changsheng to end at the thirty-second rank, they didn't expect him to emerge victorious over the strong opponent Sun Jian after a seven-day seclusion.

Following this trend, Lu Changsheng might well advance to the top four.

"We still have Fairy Xia and Monk Wu Le from Xia State in the cultivation world, and Monk Wu Le is also in the upper bracket; if he and Lu proceed smoothly into the top four, they will meet."

Li Changye calculated the order of the matches.

Lu Changsheng and Monk Wu Le were both in the upper bracket.

Monk Wu Le, who practiced the Decay and Prosperity Divine Skill in the Immeasurable Temple and drew upon the Power of Faith from billions of beings in Xia State, had Divine Skills no less powerful than those of Sun Jian from Thousand Swords Manor.

If Lu Changsheng were to face Monk Wu Le, the outcome would be difficult to predict.

"Though we cultivators from Xia State may have to face each other, it also means that at least one of us can make it to the final battle."

The Elders and disciples from various Sects in Xia State were thrilled.

This Zhong Zhou convention could be the most splendid one for the cultivation world of Xia State, teeming with giants of the era.

After the match between Lu Changsheng and Sun Jian, the second match began.

The second match was between a ninth layer Unity Realm powerhouse and an eighth layer Unity Realm powerhouse.

The outcome was as expected, with the ninth layer Unity Realm powerhouse victorious.

However, this ninth layer Unity Realm powerhouse was frowning with worry.

His opponent in the seventh round was Lu Changsheng, the Sect Leader of Mount Shu who had just defeated Sun Jian.

He stood no chance of winning.

Sun Jian was already a formidable enemy, and Lu Changsheng had even managed to defeat him, so what could he do?

The third match and the fourth match also determined their victors.

Monk Wu Le entered the arena for the fifth match and defeated his opponent, advancing to the top sixteen.

Wu Yue took the stage in the eighth match and, with only three moves, defeated her strong opponent, similarly advancing into the top sixteen.

The matches for the upper bracket concluded.

In the lower bracket, the first match was Xia Ningxue against a peak eighth layer Unity Realm powerhouse.

"It's really lucky to face the weakest cultivator in the lower bracket."

The peak eighth layer Unity Realm powerhouse was secretly delighted.

The eight cultivators who entered the top sixteen in the upper bracket were either ninth layer Unity Realm powerhouses or had the combat power to match them.

The situation was similar in the lower bracket; if you were at the peak of the eighth layer of the Unity Realm and had bad luck facing powerhouses like the Pavilion Master of Star Pavilion or the Sect Master of Dragon Tiger Sect, you would have been stopped at the thirty-second rank.

Among the cultivators in the lower bracket, Xia Ningxue had the lowest realm. Defeating her meant advancing into the top sixteen.

"This guy is truly lucky—his opponent is the weakest among us, Xia Ningxue, while my opponent is the Pavilion Master of Star Pavilion. All I can hope for is to lose with some dignity."

"Qi Destiny really is a part of one's strength."

The practitioners in the lower half of the tournament couldn't help but envy this person.

"Don't worry, Fairy Xia, seeing how stunningly beautiful you are, I'll treat you gently and won't be too hard on you," the cultivator said, his hands crossed over his chest, his expression arrogant, as if victory was already in his grasp.

The Unity Realm eighth layer peak powerhouse stood confidently, a smug look on his face.

"No need to hold back, please enlighten me," Xia Ningxue said coldly, as she circulated her Supreme Forgetting Love Art, spreading a chilly aura that froze everything within a thousand miles.

In the seven hundred years of her secluded cultivation, Xia Ningxue had perfected the Supreme Forgetting Love Art, forcibly elevating a Heaven Rank superior technique to an Immortal Tier technique.

Hum.

With a gesture from Xia Ningxue, the Immortal Slaying Sword unsheathed behind her, its more frigid-than-ice murderous Sword Qi spreading, causing an involuntary shiver to those who felt it.

"What level of treasure is this?"

At the moment the Immortal Slaying Sword was unsheathed, the color drained from the face of the Unity Realm eighth layer peak powerhouse.

He actually couldn't discern the level of the Immortal Slaying Sword.

The rank of the Immortal Slaying Sword may well not be lower than that of the Imperial Shadow Sword or the Demon-Suppressing Sword.

Xia Ningxue might appear to have a lower realm, but like Lu Changsheng, her strength didn't match her realm. She possessed the power to cross ranks in battle, which only made it easier for her opponents to misjudge her as an easy target.

It was not just Xia Ningxue's opponent who was shocked, but other powerhouses from various sects as well.

Xia Ningxue's aura was clearly not weak, at least on par with the Unity Realm seventh layer.

A quarter of an hour later, the Unity Realm eighth layer peak expert was defeated.

The Immortal Slaying Sword returned to its sheath on Xia Ningxue's back.

The crowd was rendered completely silent.

Everyone had originally thought that Xia Ningxue was the weakest among the practitioners in the lower half, but unexpectedly, she possessed the strength of the Unity Realm ninth layer.

Even the people from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion didn't know Xia Ningxue's cultivation level was so high that she could defeat a Unity Realm eighth layer peak expert.

With this, Xia State had three practitioners advancing to the top sixteen, outnumbering the experts from Zhong Zhou!

Following Xia Ningxue, the Sect Masters of the Dragon Tiger Sect, Star Pavilion, and Profound Heaven Sect also moved into the top sixteen.

"The sixth round is over. Next, our Pavilion Master plans to add an additional match," announced a Supreme Elder from Star Pavilion suddenly, causing a stir among the crowd.

They didn't expect that there would be an extra match in this Zhong Zhou tournament.

However, why would Star Pavilion suddenly add an extra match? What was the purpose?

"This match will only be open to young talents who have cultivated for less than three hundred years, are above the Void Refinement Realm, and who have no spouse. The victor will have the chance… ahem, will have the chance to become the son-in-law of our Star Pavilion Miss Tang. Even if not chosen by Star Pavilion, they will receive a mid-grade Immortal Artifact as compensation.

During the spar, stop at the slightest sign, it's forbidden to harm each other's life," the Supreme Elder continued.

"What?!!"

The powerhouses from various sects were dumbstruck.

They hadn't expected that the Pavilion Master of Star Pavilion would use the Zhong Zhou tournament to choose a spouse for his daughter.

"The Pavilion Master of Star Pavilion is really shrewd. The Zhong Zhou tournament gathers disciples from sects across all states, many of which are peerless geniuses.

By choosing from the best, the Star Pavilion ensures that the next generation will also be exceptionally talented," Grandmaster Chen realized the intentions of the Pavilion Master of Star Pavilion, and couldn't help but admire his strategy.

Star Pavilion could maintain its position as the top sect not only because of the Pavilion Master's high cultivation but also due to a measure of cunning and strategy.

"Compared with Miss Tang of Star Pavilion, what is a mid-grade Immortal Artifact worth!"

"If one could get Miss Tang, wouldn't the cultivation techniques and treasures of the Star Pavilion be within reach?"

Young elite talents from major states were all eager to try their luck.

Miss Tang of Star Pavilion had both beauty that could topple states and a noble status. Compared with her, what was a mid-grade Immortal Artifact worth?

Even if it meant marrying into Star Pavilion, a group of unparalleled geniuses were willing and anxious.

Only young talents with less than three hundred years of cultivation and who had reached the Void Refinement Realm met Star Pavilion's strict requirements to compete in the marriage contest, which effectively ruled out the majority of disciples from various sects.

Mount Shu indeed had two individuals who qualified, one being Lin Qingzhi and the other Shen Xiaoyao.

Of course, Lin Qingzhi, the senior disciple, was secretly involved with Chen Yao, the sixth disciple, and would not participate in Star Pavilion's marriage contest.

"Xiaoyao, if you wish to partake in the marriage contest, feel free to give it your all. I will support you from behind. Before the contest, I'll reward you with a few treasures," said his master.
