As soon as Dugu Shang said this, everyone was shocked and stunned.

"What?"

"Didn't it mean that Dugu Shang became the leader of the younger generation of swordsmanship by exploring and practicing hard?"

"I heard that he said, he still has a master."

"Yes, without the guidance of the teacher, even the most evil genius would be difficult to achieve such a achievement at the age of about twenty."

"What people rumored was that he was self-taught, and I'm afraid he was just spreading rumors."

"However, what does his last sentence mean to be Xiao Wuji's shadow?"

Everyone looked at Dugu Shang with some confusion and discussed.

"Shadow?" Xiao Wuji was also a little confused.

"right."

"From now on, I will protect you in secret."

"And, only my kendo can pass you before leaving."

"This is what I promised the teacher."

"But every other year, I'll talk to you."

"Today is July 7th. I will discuss with you next year's July 7th." Dugu Shang explained.

"Be my shadow?"

"Talk with me?"

Xiao Wuji raised his eyebrows, thought it was very interesting, and said, "Okay, I promise you."

In fact, even if Xiao Wuji used all his strength, he only narrowly defeated Dugu Shang.

From this we can see that Dugu Shang is so powerful.

If Dugu Shang can protect him in secret, it would be equivalent to adding a huge help for Xiao Wuji.

More importantly, the two of them can also compete with each other for swordsmanship.

This is a good thing for Xiao Wuji to kill two birds with one stone.

To a certain extent, Dugu Shang has now become Xiao Wuji's "sword slave".

However, outsiders are not good at judging. Dugu Shang is drawing a prison for himself or to strengthen his sword heart.

If it can succeed, Dugu Shang's sword will soar into the sky.

If it fails, he will live in Xiao Wuji's shadow for the rest of his life.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it seems that Xiao Wuji is the biggest winner of today's Tianjiao Exchange Conference!"

"Duan Hou Feiyang had his arm, stepped on Gao Xiao, and defeated the younger generation's leader, Dugu Shang, on the sword path, and Dugu Shang also agreed to be his sword slave."

"If this incident spreads, I'm afraid the whole Xiaoyu Kyoto will be shocked!"

...

Everyone was talking, looking at Xiao Wuji with envy and awe.

I envy it because Xiao Wuji is young and has such terrible strength, and he is surrounded by his beautiful woman Wen Yueyan.

Awe is because Xiao Wuji is too strong, strong enough to make his peers look up to him.

"I really didn't expect that Dugu Shang would actually lose to him." A look of surprise appeared in the middle-aged purple robe's eyes.

Dugu Shang can be said to be the top leader of Xiaoyujing’s younger generation in the past decade.

Xiao Wuji defeated him today, which was enough to subvert the world's gaze.

"Otherwise, why do you think I would give him Chunfeng Order?"

"Do you think I'm just trying to please the Taoist sect?" The shopkeeper of Chunfeng Restaurant patted his round belly and said with a smile.

"Did you have seen this son long ago, not something in the pond?" The middle-aged man in purple robe said in surprise.

"Although my martial arts cultivation is not as good as you, you are far inferior to me in terms of human skills." The shopkeeper of Chunfeng Restaurant said, "While he has not grown up yet, try to make friends with him as much as possible. Otherwise, when his talent will be fully revealed in the future, even if we want to make friends with him, we will have no chance."

"I understand." The middle-aged man in purple robe nodded with a serious look.

With the talent Xiao Wuji showed today, it is worthy of their full efforts to win over.

Then, the middle-aged man in purple robe seemed to have thought of something and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid we want to win over now, and we don't have that chance."

"Huh? What does it mean?" The shopkeeper of Chunfeng Restaurant raised his eyebrows, a little confused.

"Shopkeeper, you must have heard of the Dragon King Palace?" said the middle-aged purple robe.

"Well, I have heard of it. It is said that this force is very mysterious and few people can touch it there." The shopkeeper said.

"That little guy seems to have been selected into the Dragon King Hall, and his status in the Dragon King Hall is not low."

"If we win him over at this time, it may make the Dragon King Palace disgusted, and then it may not be worth the loss." The middle-aged man in purple robe was a little worried.

"The Dragon King Palace... is indeed a giant that we cannot afford to provoke."

"If you can't win over, try to make a good deal!" The shopkeeper patted the middle-aged man in purple robe's shoulder and said earnestly.

"I understand." The middle-aged man in purple robe nodded.

...

Xiao Wuji showed off his limelight at the Tianjiao Exchange Conference, and his light covered everyone.

Even Dugu Shang was defeated, no one would feel uncomfortable and even run to challenge Xiao Wuji.

"Originally, this exchange meeting was a place where many geniuses in Xiaoyujing competed."

"Because of your appearance, it sets the others down to a dull light."

Wen Yueyan covered her mouth and said with a giggle.

Her laughter was as beautiful as a silver bell.

Her charming eyes, like autumn water, showed a subtle sense of admiration.

"I have no choice, I have to."

"In the future, I'd better not attend the genius exchange meeting like this." Xiao Wuji said helplessly.

It seems that when he came here, he was always provoked and was forced to take action.

Hearing this, Wen Yueyan chuckled and said, "You guy, your mentality is like an old monster who has lived for many years."

"Martial scholars of your age are full of energy and wish everyone could notice their own light."

"You are better, don't want to attract attention."

She felt that Xiao Wuji was too different from others, and then she changed her voice and reminded her: "By the way, you must be careful of Hou Feiyang's revenge in the future."

"His master Gu Zhenren has a very small belly. He may send his senior brothers and sisters to Xiaoyujing to deal with you." Wen Yueyan said with a pretty face very seriously.

"I'm becoming more and more curious about this Gu real person after hearing what you said."

"I really want to meet him in advance." Xiao Wuji said with a smile.

"You must not underestimate Gu Zhenren. In the entire Western Regions, almost everyone is afraid of talking about Gu."

"That Gu Zhenren is even more a master of the great way of collecting Gu Dao."

"If he is jealous of him, even the strong King of Wu will be unable to sleep or eat." Wen Yueyan said with a serious expression.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Xiao Wuji nodded at the end.

After the two separated, Xiao Wuji returned to the Taoist sect.

Moreover, his divine power could be vaguely felt that Dugu Shang was hiding in the dark.

"This shadow is hidden quite deep!"

"I hope it can really help me at the critical moment!" Xiao Wuji said.

After returning to his room, Xiao Wuji sat down cross-legged, opened all the pores in his body, and absorbed all the vital energy of heaven and earth around him into his body.

"On the surface, my fight with Dugu Shang today seems very calm, but in fact, it is extremely dangerous."

"It was in that dangerous situation that my bottleneck seemed to loosen." Xiao Wuji said in his heart.

"I wonder if I can break through to the fourth level of Wuling Heaven in one fell swoop."

With this in mind, Xiao Wuji formed seals with both hands, and all sixty-eight dragon veins were opened.

In an instant, his body turned into a black hole of vitality, pulling the vital energy of heaven and earth within a mile radius over domineeringly.

At this time, Xiao Wuji's house seemed to have turned into a vortex of vitality. The surrounding vital energy gathered over it, and the rich vital energy condensed and turned into a fog state.

The strange phenomena that arise here immediately attracted many Taoist disciples.
