"First?"
Zhou Xuan and others were stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at Li Jianqi, somewhat surprised.
They were more surprised than happy. Forty people advanced, which meant there were twenty battles. However, Li Jianqi became the first person to appear. This should be regarded as a certain degree of luck, right?
"Then you finish the fight early and you can rest first."
Zhou Xuan quickly reacted and smiled. It was not a boast, but there were indeed not many opponents who could threaten Li Jianqi.
On the high platform, the big shots were still chatting about the situation in the first round.
"You have come all the way, have you seen a few good seedlings?"
Song Nan asked with a smile while the tall man was explaining the rules of the game.
Wang Lei nodded and responded with a smile: "Compared to previous years, there are some more surprises this year. In the first round alone, we saw many good potential seeds, and there should be no such thing as Gu Changge in other states and counties. several."
Lin Suyan smiled: "If nothing unexpected happens, the many talents in Jianghe County will probably shine this year."
"You guys are overly complimentary."
Song Nan was happy in his heart, but he was very humble on the outside: "I think it's not bad to come to other states and counties."
"It's indeed an exaggeration. But we have just finished the first round. How can we tell how good it is? You guys are free and come to watch every year. No wonder no one comes to Qingtianwu Mansion. This is a complete waste of time."
Gu Yuebai sat cross-legged on the chair and spoke without mercy.
He looked at Zhou Xuan among the crowd and narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to hesitate.
Song Nan and the other envoys from the three major martial arts houses looked a little embarrassed and coughed.
"What Mr. Bai said makes sense. It really depends on the level of this class. We have to look again. Having said that, I hope to see the strong showdown earlier. Especially this kid named Li Jianqi, it is best not to meet him. Go to someone who is too weak.”
Li Yanxing's eyes flickered, looking expectantly at the swordsman in white below.
Lin Su noticed Gu Yuebai's slightly strange gaze and couldn't help but ask: "Old Bai, who are you looking at?"
"The boy named Zhou Xuan below always looks familiar to me."
Gu Yuebai scratched his head and said impatiently: "I can't remember who it is."
The others took a glance at it, and Wang Lei smiled: "There is nothing particularly outstanding about this boy's appearance. It is not easy to leave an impression on Mr. Bai, but his talent seems to be pretty good, and he is also a friend of Li Jianqi."
"Um?"
"Li Jianqi seems to be the one who made the move in the first round."
Li Yanxing suddenly saw Li Jianqi below, stepping onto the ring step by step, his eyes suddenly lit up, he didn't expect it to be so fast.
In his heart, Li Jianqi has been regarded as an important disciple of the martial arts house, so he is naturally paying special attention to it. He is very happy to see Li Jianqi fight so soon. He only hopes that Li Jianqi's opponent will not be too weak, at least force him to Li Jianqi had to draw his sword.
Others also raised their attention.
Needless to say, the envoys from the other three major and five palaces had shining eyes.
They know in their hearts that if Li Jianqi enters Changhe Wufu, he is likely to become the leader of the younger generation of Changhe Wufu in the future.
How can you not pay more attention to such a person?
Song Nan below, as well as the heads of the two major families, were also concerned. Song Nan was interested because he saw a rising star in Jianghe County. Tang Qianshan and Wei Qiufeng believed that Li Jianqi's existence might threaten them. child.
Everyone on and off the field had their eyes focused.
As the first battle of the second round of assessment, it naturally attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that the person stepping onto the ring was Li Jianqi, their eyes lit up.
With that sword move, everyone remembered Li Jianqi.
"It looks good now. This man's sword is extremely exaggerated, and its power seems to be much more terrifying than his cultivation. Most people probably cannot be his opponent. I hope he is not particularly weak, otherwise it will be too one-sided."
"Who is his opponent?"
"Um?"
"His opponent seems to be..."
Countless people's eyes were on the ring, and suddenly their expressions changed slightly, and their eyes looked at Li Jianqi full of sympathy.
Zhou Xuan and others were also startled, their brows subconsciously frowned.
Zhou Xuan and the others originally thought that as long as their luck was not too bad, Li Jianqi would probably win the first battle and prepare for the next round of battle in advance. Unexpectedly, they saw a familiar figure in the crowd slowly stepping onto the ring.
The visitor's identity was particularly special, so special that many people's expressions changed slightly.
Tang Yulong, who was the number one among the younger generation of the Tang family, ranked third among the Pingnan Ten Elites, and ranked second on the Tongtian Ranking, slowly walked onto the ring and came to the opposite side of Li Jianqi!
The whole place seemed to be quiet for a moment.
People originally thought that Li Jianqi's sword was extremely exaggerated and the chance of winning must be greater, but almost the moment they saw Tang Yulong, everyone sighed in their hearts, as if they had already seen the outcome of this battle.
On the high platform.
Wei Qiufeng and others all looked surprised and were stunned for a moment.
Tang Qianshan's eyes flashed and he quickly reacted with surprise.
He couldn't help but smile. He thought Li Jianqi might become an obstacle to Tang Yulong.
Now it seems that God has given a good opportunity.
No matter how incredible talent Li Jianqi possesses, Li Jianqi's cultivation at the fourth level of the Aperture is always Li Jianqi's biggest flaw. Compared with Tang Yulong's cultivation at the ninth level of the Aperture, it is almost a day away.
God gave the Tang family a chance to step on Li Jianqi first!
Wei Qiufeng glanced at Tang Qianshan silently, feeling a little unbalanced in his heart. He also believed that Tang Yulong would definitely win.
To know.
Li Jianqi has now been recognized by many big shots.
If it can be defeated, whether it is suppressed by cultivation or otherwise, it will definitely increase the momentum of the follow-up, and the benefits will be endless. It is a pity that this opportunity did not fall into the hands of the Wei family, but instead took advantage of the boy from the Tang family.
"It seems that the Tang family leader is very happy."
Wei Qiufeng laughed, but remained calm on the surface.
Tang Qianshan waved his hand: "What are you talking about, Master Wei? I am naturally happy that Yulong can have the opportunity to spar with the strong men that the seniors have chosen. However, Li Jianqi is very strong and the outcome is still unknown."
Both of them knew what the other was thinking, but they didn't show it.
Gu Yuebai, however, was too lazy to beat around the bush and said bluntly: "Interesting, if this kid who knows all about the Nine Heavens can't easily defeat him despite suppressing so many cultivation skills, he should think carefully about whether he is suitable for cultivation."
When Tang Qianshan heard this, his expression suddenly froze.
Tang Yulong was so talented that he swept through the vast Pingnan City with few opponents. This was the first time that he was labeled as "unsuitable" for cultivation.
Tang Qianshan was also a proud man, so naturally he didn't want to fall behind.
"I think Jade Dragon's chances of winning should be higher."
