Vol 1, Chapter 30: Five Bnaks Compet.i.tion
TL: G.o.dspell
In these three days of time, except for eating food and p.i.s.sing, Ding Hao had stayed all day in his room to practice his sword techniques.
He had lived in the mountains for more than four years and with the fusion of memories of previous Ding Hao, regarding the details about the Inquiring Sword Sect he understands everything, regarding this issue he does not need to waste any time. Grasping the present time, he began to cultivate diligently, first he needs to improve his strength, for now, this is the best possible path. Room No.1 is indeed the best room in the entire courtyard, the room is divided into the front lobby and the back room. The front lobby is very s.p.a.cious and bright, this place is very suitable for cultivating. However, the back room is slightly small and a little narrow, there is only a bluestone table inside, at the same time a bluestone bed, which is obviously used for resting. For Ding Hao, every tenth of second is very precious. He needs to do his best to improve his present strength, so soon he can travel in the wilderness by himself, then he can go to the southern region to search for his younger sister. This matter is the wish of the former master of this body, but it is his own commitment also. This must be completed at any cost. Of course, he is very ambitious he had long secretly vowed in his heart, one day, he must ascend everybody in the Ranking List, all those monstrous geniuses, one after another will all be trampled by his foot. "Bang Bang!" Suddenly a knock came from outside of his door. Ding Hao stands with the help of his sword, then slightly had exhaled one big mouthful of impure air, then stride forward to open the door. Naturally, Zhao Fan is standing outside the door. "Senior Brother Ding, teacher w.a.n.g Juefeng from the eastern bank had just sent someone to convey a message, in a moment we all had to go to the Eastern Bank Martial Pavilion, I think it’s probably because two days later, the East, South, West, North, and Central all these Five Great River Banks Great Compet.i.tion is going to start, teacher had said we must elect our Eastern River Bnak representatives for the tournament, I had come to inform you about this urgent matter." there is a simple and pure smile on the face of Zhao Fang:"I didn’t disturb your cultivation right.?" Ding Hao smiled and said:"No, later we are fellow apprentices, you can just call me by my name Ding Hao."
After this he turned around and enter his room, he then wears his long blue robe made for sect’s disciples, then tucks his rusty sword at his waist and then walked out slowly. The two men walked alongside and left the courtyard. Following the azure slate paved stone road, both walked through from the middle of the forest, along the way they had met a lot of similar disciples who are wearing long Cyan Robes just like them clearly representing they are also from the East River Bank, all of there faces are hanging with a very excited expression, now they have a total of 32 companions to walk alongside, toward the direction of distant square martial pavilion. These are all the disciples of the East River Bank. This time, altogether 2020 disciples had been able to enter into Inquiring Sword Sect through the test, in addition to the first 20 mysterious super genius were directly prepared for to practice secret training of the Inner Court, and all other people were divided into Cyan East River Bank, Purple South 
;River Bank, Red West River Bank, Yellow North River Bank and lastly White Central River Bank this five-big Banks. Each Bank consists full of 400 disciples, they can clearly be identified from the difference in the colors. The disciples from different banks, not only their residential area is different, even their cultivation techniques are supervised by through different teacher guidance, and for one year they will be taught. It is worth mentioning that the 2000 rookie now can only be regarded as a disciple in the name only. The so-called registered disciple means that once they were eliminated in the upcoming examination after one year, they will lose their qualifications to remain in the Inquiring Sword Sect and immediately will be expelled from the sect. In fact, this so-called examination of Inquiring Sword Sect is not a small a.s.sessment, after this the number of examinations will just keep on increasing, the first deadline is in the middle of January, after this one year later examination then again, a variety of examinations, they are going to just build up in the future, resulting in creating a sufficient suffocating pressure on all the disciples. Naturally, there is an intense compet.i.tion going on all around the Inquiring Sword Sect. This is why all the new disciples are divided into five banks, naturally to create an intense compet.i.tion among them. Every month, for the five banks great compet.i.tion, every bank will choose ten outstanding ten representatives for the compet.i.tion, to represent every bank, each and every chosen had to partic.i.p.ate in the martial arts tournament.
The victory and defeat from this martial arts tournament will be of a great significance to each disciple. The final ranking will determine which banks disciples will receive the most share of the spirit herbs and other profound art secrets book as well as other advantages from the sect in the upcoming next month. Even in an ordinary course of cultivation, the disciple who will be the victor from a single bank among the great five banks can get more guidance from a strong marital pract.i.tioner. These all are the resources and superiority that will make any new disciple very envious. No matter which banks disciples are, no one wants to lose at the starting line. 10 minutes later, Ding Hao and Zhao Fan these two people, at last, arrived at the Martial Pavilion of the East River Bank. In the big main hall, there are two hundred or three hundred people, all are dressed in tight-fitting Cyan Color Martial Warrior Robes, most of the disciples are sitting in the middle of the most four sides of the stone arena, each and every one are discussing which candidates should be selected for the upcoming martial arts contest, all are looking very excited, as they all wanted to get selected for the contest. And the purple clothed youth whose name is w.a.n.g Xiaoqi who is living together with Ding Hao in the same courtyard N0.8 is also sitting in the crowd. At this time, he had also put on a Cyan Robe and was laughing merrily with one bunch of disciples, it appears as they are extremely affectionate with each other. "The boy, who is surrounded by w.a.n.g Xiaoqi and others in the middle, is called Zhuo Yifeng, it is rumored that his strength is above every disciple present in the eastern bank, his overall ranking was on the first hundred ranked 107th, he is extremely arrogant, in the past few days, he had won the trust of many Eastern River Bank disciples.
Zhang Fan said near the ear of Ding Hao in very low voice. Obviously, Zhao Fan had already collected a lot of information within the past few days. These two vacantly found a position to sit and wait. At this time, Ding Hao just noticed, in the center of Martial pavilion stone area, a person was calmly standing. A tall and roughly bearded st.u.r.dy man in a Cyan long robe.
Ding Hao suddenly felt a very strong dangerous aura from this st.u.r.dy man standing at the center, similarly as if an Ominous beast is dormant lying there just ready to attack, a very strong powerful force is hidden with his st.u.r.dy body, this strength, once it erupts, sufficiently in an incense joe stick to burn will rip apart all the disciples in this entire Pavilion.
Ding Hao in his heart had slightly judged the opposite party strength, clearly, right now he is not even a bit of opponent for this person. At the same time, as if he had felt the gaze of Ding Hao, the strong beard man raised his head to looked over. Looking at each other, Ding Hao thought that this st.u.r.dy man eyes are like a knife dazzling sharp glaring at him straight, Ding Hao can"t help but narrowed his eyes, instantaneously his eyes becoming sour, he is very secretly surprised in his heart. The Beard st.u.r.dy man first stare at Ding Hao, then the corners of his mouth lifted up in a strange arc.
A few seconds later, he withdrew his gaze, then looked to the whole hall, slightly nodded, and then grunted softly.
"Cough!"
His sound is neither too big nor too small, but actually clearly sounded in everyone"s ear.
At this moment, everyone felt that their eardrum seems to have been fiercely hit, some of the people in the back are even on the verge of collapsing.
Everyone stopped talking and looked at the st.u.r.dy man with amazement.
At this time, even if a single needle falls on the ground it will be clearly heard.
