Not long after Lu Pingan defeated Lan Hongsi, the quarterfinals came to an end.

The monks who advanced to the top four were Lu Pingan, Gongsunying, Lu Qianqiu, and Qi Yanzhan.

Among them, Qi Yanzhan was the elder of Jixia Jiange.

And with Lu Qianqiu, Jixia College accounted for half of the top four.

This result still surprised people. Everyone knows that Jixia Academy has many students and geniuses.

But never expected that two of them could make it to the semifinals!

From this point of view, they claim to be the "First Academy in the Eastern Continent" and they are also qualified and confident.

Prior to this, Lu Pingan was on the contending platform for the second time and defeated many students from the major branches in the secret realm. After this series of incidents spread, it can be said that Jixia Academy's face was greatly damaged.

But just as many people think that Jixia Academy is in decline, and when there is no real genius among the younger generation of monks, they responded to their doubts with facts in this competition, and they also reached other sects. Power, an unattainable height of achievement.

However, to speak of it, people still feel that Jixia Academy has not completely restored dignity.

Because of those incidents, Lu Ping'an also made it to the semi-finals. Only by defeating him can Jixia Academy completely recover face.

So what people look forward to most is the duel between Lu Ping An and Lu Qianqiu or Qi Yanzhan.

And if you look at the top four cultivators from the perspective of the four great powers, then the Eastern Yu Kingdom is the undoubted biggest winner, the Nanyun Kingdom and the Xichi Kingdom are completely annihilated, and there is only one beast sect Gongsunying left in the Beiji Kingdom.

Although this does not represent the full strength of a country or force, it still means many things after all.

Sometimes, as long as a peerless genius appears, it can change the internal power structure of the country. Now that Dongyu has three out of the country at once, then in the future, they will most likely have an impact on the entire East. The mainland has a major impact.

Of course, in detail, both Lu Pingan and Lu Qianqiu came from Cangwu Country.

No one had thought that that tiny country could give birth to two top-notch geniuses.

The most important thing is that they are still cousins, which makes people wonder, what is the mysterious origin of that little Lu family? Or is there any special training method for the descendants of the family? Can you do such an incredible thing?

But almost everyone knows that there is a deep hatred between Lu Pingan and Lu Qianqiu, otherwise, if the two of them can work together to revitalize the family, in the future, a family of strong surnamed Lu will be born on the Eastern Continent.

There were a lot of discussions and analyses about the Big Four, but Lu Pingan, one of the parties involved, left the venue after the competition and returned to his temporary residence at Yunjianmen.

On the one hand, it is to recover from the injury, on the other hand, it is to prepare for tomorrow's competition.

After all, no matter who you encounter, it will be a hard battle, and Lu Ping'an must face it in the best state.

When night fell, Lu Ping'an's physical condition was almost restored.

So, he took out some beast cores from the storage bag and absorbed and refined them.

After consuming eight high-grade tiers and fifty middle-tier beast cores, Lu Ping'an successfully broke through to the eighth level of the Profound Yin Realm!

Although he only raised his realm to the seventh stage of Xuan Yin not long ago, he has not yet been able to fully adapt to his control, and doing so now seems a bit hasty, and may cause physical damage.

But just in case, to leave himself a hole card, Lu Ping’an still chose to take a risk, but he would only use the power of Xuan Yin’s eightfold layer only when he had to. Under normal circumstances, he would only suppress the realm. Xuan Yin Qizhong went to challenge.

At night, after Lu Pingan had adapted to the eighth-layer Xuanyin realm, he didn't realize it any more, but walked to the open space in the courtyard and began to practice sword.

In addition to the six-style sword moves of the first level of Sword Eighteen, Lu Ping's still focused on the second level of "Sword Seven".

As early as more than two months ago, Lu Ping'an had already practiced Jianqi to the introductory stage, but he hadn't been able to enter the Xiaocheng stage.

In Lu Ping'an's view, failing to make a small achievement is not mature enough, and it is difficult to achieve the power he wants. Instead of using half-hearted tricks, it is better to use those already trained swords.

This is also why Lu Pingan has not played Sword Seven since the start of the Four Kingdoms Grand Tournament.

However, Lu Ping'an worked hard for the whole night without stopping this time, and when the sky broke, he broke through the bottleneck.

"Finally, I have reached the stage of Xiaocheng!"

Lu Pingan's eyes lit up and his face was full of excitement and yelled.

Afterwards, he turned his head to look at the sky that gradually became brighter, and he had more confidence in the next test.

...

The Yunjianmen rest area in the Dabi venue.

As usual, Lu Pingan sat quietly on a chair, waiting for the start of the competition.

At this moment, Di Guangji walked towards Lu Ping'an, and the eyes of the other forty people also fell on Lu Ping'an.

Lu Pingan stood up and said, "Master Di Feng."

Di Guangji nodded, and said earnestly: "Now we are the entire Yunjian Sect, but you are the only one left... Although I don't want to put you too much psychological pressure, there are some things, even if I don't say anything. , You should also understand."

Lu Pingan said, "Of course, as the elder of the Sect Sect, I will never shame Yun Jian Sect."

Di Guangji smiled and said, "You have reached the semi-finals. Even if you lose today, it is not shameful, but I believe that with your ambition, you will definitely not be satisfied with this result, and no matter it is The headmaster, or the master of Mount Mu, also has higher expectations of you."

Lu Ping'an said, "From the very beginning, I came for the first name of Dabi."

Di Guangji said: "Then you know, when we won the first place in the Four Kingdoms Competition at the Cloud Sword Sect last time?"

Lu Pingan shook his head and said, "I really haven't learned about this."

Di Guangji said: "It has been more than a hundred years, and the person who won the top name of Dabi at that time was the Master Mu of Yunfeng."

Hearing this, people like Lu Pingan and Meng Shaoyuan who had just started their careers were quite surprised.

But after Lu Ping's second thoughts, he seemed to understand why Mu Qing was able to become a peak leader when he was so selfish and casual sometimes.

In the face of sufficiently strong talent and strength, the entire senior level of Cloud Jianmen, including the head, can tolerate her character to a certain extent.

Meng Shaoyuan couldn't help but exclaimed: "I didn't expect my master to be so powerful? As her apprentice, I was eliminated long ago. This is really shameful!"

Di Guangji said: "With your strength, it is already very good to achieve such a result. And after so long, not many people remember this matter, so even if your grades are poor, no outsider will Speaking of this."

After learning of this, Lu Pingan only felt that the burden on his shoulders had become heavier, and said: "It's really been too long."

Di Guangji said: "In the more than a hundred years since then, half of the top sects of the four major countries have won the top spot, and even Jixia Jiange has won it once."

Lu Pingan's expression was slightly condensed, and said, "At that time, our Cloud Sword Gate should have been ridiculed by many people, right?"

Di Guangji smiled bitterly and said, "Well, of course. However, a hidden genius of our Cloud Jianmen met the top name of the big competition outside, and the two of them tried it out. Our people won. But since there were only a few bystanders from Xiaomenzong at the time, the outside world didn't believe this thing was true."

Most of the people in the room were surprised to hear about this for the first time. At the same time, they were full of curiosity about the hidden genius.

After Lu Pingan was silent for a while, he said, "Master Di Feng, I understand what you said, and I will do my best for the honor of Yunjianmen!"

Di Guangji stretched out his hand and patted Lu Ping'an on the shoulder, and said, "For Menzong and for yourself, fight hard!"

At the same time, everyone looked at Lu Ping'an with fiery eyes, and they were full of expectations for him.

Lu Pingan arched his hands to everyone and said, "I, Lu Pingan, will definitely live up to expectations!"

...

After a while, Lu Pingan walked into the competition venue, and then walked to the place where the lottery was drawn together with the other three who entered the semifinals.

Gongsunying said to Lu Pingan with a smile on his face: "Brother Lu, we have met again, I really hope I can get you."

Lu Ping'an thought, aren't you nonsense? Everyone is here for the top four draw, can you not meet?

At this time, Lu Qianqiu said: "Coincidentally, I also want to fight with my cousin. To be precise, I want to teach him this scum brother in public."

Lu Ping's expression sank, and said, "You don't need to worry, even if we didn't meet at the competition, I will go to you to settle the account!"

Lu Qianqiu smiled and said: "Well, with your strength, it is impossible to enter the finals, so if I don't get me in this draw, I will have to find another opportunity later. Of course, I am willing to give you a choice. The chance of humiliation, who made me your cousin?"

Gongsun Yingxiu frowned, obviously not liking Lu Qianqiu's yin and yang way of speaking, and said, "That might be the case. If I play against him in the finals, I would be very happy."

Lu Qianqiu said: "Gongsun girl, you look beautiful, but you also want to be beautiful. If the draw is really like what you said, it will only be my elder Qi and I won. In the finals, Just sit down and watch our people from Jixia Academy fight."

The unsmiling Qi Yanzhan, who was in his forties, stood by the side all the time, just ignoring the conversation between the three of them.

At this moment, a middle-aged man came up with a lottery holder and said, "Don't chat anymore and start the draw."
