202: The discussion begins, and the competition begins

Whoosh.

Hearing the words of Qian Muxue, the First Holy Maiden of the Yin Yang Sect and an ice-cold beauty.

The tens of thousands of Cultivators who came to pay homage, gathered in the Snow Moon Pavilion built against the mountain, their eyes burning with fervor, their breathing slightly heavy.

This was the Qunying Banquet, the most anticipated and desired segment for ordinary Sect Cultivators.

Because.

Debating the Dao at the Qunying Banquet allowed these young Geniuses from lower-tier Sects to receive guidance from the top Geniuses of Donglin Prefecture.

One must know.

For top Prodigies like those on the Qilin Ranking.

Their Dao had all been proven through practice, serving as the fundamental reason for their increasing brilliance.

Furthermore.

Their Cultivation experience was fresher and more vibrant.

Compared to the guidance from some Sect elders, it could sometimes be more suited to their own circumstances, and even transcend the limitations of their Sect's horizons.

Besides that.

During these Dao debates, every Genius on the Qilin Ranking from Donglin Prefecture.

Would also spar with each other, exchanging their own Dao.

This was also an excellent opportunity for them to learn, draw inspiration, and self-examine.

However.

While the Prodigy Dao debate seemed safer than the practical combat between Li Luo and Wei Feng earlier.

In reality.

On the contrary, it was even more perilous.

Because, Prodigies were extremely confident in their own Dao.

This was also the fundamental source of their strength.

And once doubt arose regarding one's Dao during a debate.

Then, it would be extremely dangerous.

It could even lead to the collapse of one's belief, the wavering of one's Dao Heart, stagnation, and becoming just another ordinary person.

Therefore.

For Cultivators who were more of a Prodigy, if they debated the Dao by refuting each other.

And did not possess an all-encompassing magnanimity, it would be fraught with danger, killing without shedding blood.

Besides that.

If a Cultivator performed exceptionally well in the Dao debate at the Qunying Banquet.

They might even become famous in Donglin Prefecture, a topic of widespread discussion.

All the Cultivators present were under thirty years old, which, considering the age scale of several hundred years in the Cultivation World, was truly like little babies.

It was precisely the stage of youthful vigor and vitality.

It was the age for pursuing fame and fortune.

Therefore, this Qunying Banquet's Dao debate segment was definitely one of the most invigorating and anticipated parts of the Qunying Banquet.

Debate?

Li Luo smiled.

Currently, his top-tier charm Clone could share insights with his main body through the System.

And the nascent form of the Time Domain he had grasped.

His main body naturally accepted it all.

Extending time tenfold, with top-tier charm by his side, allowed the Great Dao Concept between heaven and earth to be very close to Li Luo.

Within the Zhenhun Pagoda, he continuously inherited the peerless techniques of past sages.

Now.

The Concepts Li Luo had grasped had already surpassed two hundred types.

If it came to a Dao debate, Li Luo was simply an invincible little expert!

Indeed, using a cheat for a while is fun, but continuously using a cheat is always fun.

However.

Li Luo deeply understood that low-key was the kingly way, so Li Luo directly dragged his disciple Dragon Aotian out of the dirt.

The Golden Crowned Wind Roc Empress, transformed into a maid, followed closely behind Li Luo and Dragon Aotian.

The two people and one roc found a high-ranking pavilion and sat down.

And Li Luo was not at all worried about Dragon Aotian.

Possessing the Undying Dragon Warrior Bloodline, Dragon Aotian was simply an unkillable cockroach.

As he was injured, the Poison Dragon Pill transformed into a more concentrated stimulating force, continuously activating his Bloodline Power, making him rapidly stronger.

Like a waking Dragon of war.

Seeing this, a wicked smile appeared on Li Luo's face.

As if he had seen the System's endless return rewards.

“Revered Master, that’s Demon Child Xing Tian!”

Dragon Aotian was unyielding and proud.

However, towards Li Luo, this young handsome man before him, he was incomparably respectful.

He and Demon Child Xing Tian of the Black Demon Sect had an irreconcilable blood feud.

However, his Revered Master had not given the command to act, so he dared not make any rash moves, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

“Don’t panic, I will avenge my disciple’s grudge!”

“However, everything requires thought.”

“Hmm... Saying so much to you, you might not grasp it all at once. Let’s eat and drink our fill first, then talk!”

Li Luo waved his hand.

This kid, Xiao Tian, was a born warrior.

However, sometimes, not everything could be solved by fighting.

This Xing Tian, as the Demon Child of the Black Demon Sect.

Surely had a powerful Dao Protector, and perhaps, killing him was not yet realistic for the current Li Luo.

However, this Dao debate was truly a good opportunity.

“Oh!”

Dragon Aotian nodded.

He grabbed a golden, oily roasted lamb leg and bit into it.

Crunch, crunch.

He even chewed the bones to pieces.

“Little Jinzi, pour the wine!”

Li Luo glanced indifferently at the Golden Crowned Wind Roc Empress, who was clad in a feathery robe, quite fiery, and possessed a unique allure, and said.

Bah, Little Jinzi!

You’re Little Jinzi, your whole family is Little Jinzi.

The Golden Crowned Wind Roc Empress gritted her silver teeth, her ample chest heaving violently.

She wished.

She could directly transform into her true form and crush Li Luo’s head.

How could she, the dignified Golden Crowned Wind Roc Empress, suffer such humiliation!

“Yes, Revered Master, Little Jinzi obeys.”

However, her thoughts were striking hard.

But her body, however, was timid and incomparably honest.

Immediately, she poured wine for Li Luo and served him as he enjoyed the delicious feast.

Furthermore.

She even conjured a feather fan and gently fanned Li Luo, the treatment was truly like that of an emperor.

Many who saw a peerless Yao Race Empress serving Li Luo in such a manner were truly envious.

Luo Wudi, high above, also found it somewhat unbearable to watch.

Damn it.

If you keep going like this, everyone will just watch you.

“Ahem, everyone, don’t hold back anymore, let’s begin.”

Luo Wudi said.

Qian Muxue was an ice-cold beauty; after announcing the start of the Dao debate, she said no more.

Luo Wudi, helpless, as the highest-ranked existence on the Qilin Ranking here, naturally had enough prestige to preside.

And no one dared to defy him.

Swish!

Just at this moment.

An incomparably sharp stream of light shot out.

It was a Sword Cultivator at Divine Travel Realm First Layer, from a declining gold-tier force.

“Senior Brother Sword, I am Liu Qing. My ‘Wind’ Sword Intent, after reaching seventy percent, has been unable to advance further. I request Senior Brother for guidance.”

This Swordsman, clad in a green robe.

Had a faint, sharp Sword Qi lingering around him.

His eyes were sharp and luminous, showing his extreme devotion and fanaticism for the Dao of Sword.

At this moment.

He looked at Sword Xingchen with burning eyes.

Sword Xingchen, from the Myriad Sword Sect, was a Saint of a diamond-tier force.

And he possessed the Aotian Sword Body, having comprehended dozens of Sword Dao, making him an unparalleled Prodigy.

“Show me.”

Sword Xingchen said faintly.

“Yes!”

Swish.

The longsword was unsheathed, glittering with golden light, ethereal and agile, dazzling yet containing killing intent.

“Enough.”

He had only performed a dozen sword moves when Sword Xingchen called a halt.

“The main reason your Wind Sword Intent is difficult to advance is that you overly emphasize the ethereal and dazzling aspects, forgetting the essence of the Dao of Sword.”

Sword Xingchen pointed out.

Boom.

Hearing this, Liu Qing was struck as if by lightning.

He was still very confident in his own Dao of Sword.

Yet, he was pointed out by Sword Xingchen as having forgotten the essence of the Dao of Sword.

“The foundation of the Sword lies in offense. Discard some of the flashy and impractical components, perceive the rhythm of the wind between heaven and earth, and integrate it into your sword. Borrow the momentum of the wind, unleash killing blows!”

Sword Xingchen said.

Boom.

Hearing this, Liu Qing’s eyes lit up, as if enlightened.

“Thank you, Senior Brother, thank you, Senior Brother.”

Liu Qing seemed to have grasped something, his face full of joy, and he quickly ran back to ponder Sword Xingchen’s guidance.

Next.

Other Cultivators also sought guidance from the Geniuses on the Qilin Ranking.

In the splendid exchanges, some were thoughtful, others were inexplicably excited.

It was truly a dazzling display of myriad techniques, vying for brilliance.

They looked at those Prodigies, all showing expressions of admiration.
