On the day of the sect competition...
On both sides of Jade Peak Square, thunderous drums were being beaten, and in front of Yuhua Hall, a row of tables and seats were lined up.
Sitting in the middle is Jian Xiu, the leader of the Xuantian Sect. Seated on both sides are the peak masters. Behind the peak masters sit many Jindan Yuanying True Monarchs. Under each peak master, there are several empty seats prepared. , at this time there were several waves of people, including their families, taking their seats one after another.
These people are the heads of major aristocratic families, sitting on empty seats with their families.
Arranged according to family background, the closer to the chief, the higher the position. At the same distance, the right is higher and the left is lower. Therefore, the Shi family sat at the top of the empty seat on the right, followed by the Xie family, and then took their seats in sequence. The first empty seat on the left was occupied by the Wu family, who were famous for their weapon refining.
Everyone in front of the Yuhua Palace was all focused on the twenty-five square arenas in the square.
These twenty-five square arenas are arranged in a triangle. The ten on the right are for the foundation building stage, the ten on the left are for the Qi training stage, and the five in the middle are for the golden elixir stage.
The size of each arena is based on ten feet, and there are barriers around it to protect the two from injuring innocent people from spell attacks. It can be described as quite majestic.
When Yu Wan left the house, she knocked lightly on Yu Chen's door, but there was no response. She had no choice but to bring Dahuang and Qinglong Jiao to the square.
"Boom...boom...boom!"
Before entering the venue, the first thing that hit my ears was the deafening drum beat. Listening to this rhythmic and exciting drum beat, Yu Wan also followed the crowd to the square.
From a distance, she saw Yu Dalang, Li Hao and Yu Lin standing together. She looked around them, but she never saw her brother among them.
Yu Wan frowned, could it be that Ah Chen was still practicing?
She walked towards a few people, and they also saw Yu Wan.
"Sister Wan, here!" Yu Dalang waved to Yu Wan.
Arriving in front of everyone, Yu Wan asked uncertainly:
"You are all here, have you seen Ah Chen?"
"No, although there are a lot of people here, it's easy to find someone. I guess Ah Chen hasn't come out yet." Yu Dalang said.
Yu Wan thought about it, forget it, it's just a competition, if you miss it, you'll miss it.
However, she still glanced at Yu Lin intentionally or unintentionally. Since the last time she and Liuli guessed Yu Lin's identity, although she was not completely sure of her guess, she had this germ in her heart and it took root in her heart.
It's just that since then, I have been in trouble one after another, and my focus has been on cultivation, so I have no time to think about Yu Lin.
Now this was the first meeting between the two of them after such a long absence. Unexpectedly, Yu Lin was also looking at her with her eyes. Oh, they really "felt sympathy".
The sudden exchange of eyes between the two made both of them stunned. Yu Wan was stunned because it was rare for her to take the initiative to raise her eyes to look at Yu Lin, and she never expected to meet Yu Lin's eyes directly.
Yu Lin was stunned because she had always been the one to look at Yu Wan, and now she was suddenly being looked at by Yu Wan like this. When she raised her eyes, their eyes collided directly, and both of them felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
In order to ease the embarrassment, Yu Wan smiled at Yu Lin and nodded slightly as a greeting.
After Yu Lin was stunned, she saw Yu Wan smiling at her, and then nodded and smiled politely in response.
"Sister Wan, how many numbers did you get? Is there a competition today? In which arena?" Qin Yushan asked curiously.
"Um... I'm in Arena No. 5, and my number has reached 520. I think I can be ranked today, right? What about you?" Yu Wan explained her situation and then asked.
"I am also in the fifth ring, but my ranking is low, number 1024. It may be a little difficult to play today. I don't know what my opponent is like?" Yu Xiaolang said.
"I will definitely be able to play today. Mine is No. 177. In the second ring, A Li is also in No. 2. Maybe we can become opponents." Yu Dalang said excitedly.
"Isn't it? Brother Dalang... I don't want to fight you..." Yu Li said sadly.
He is the No. 209, but he has three spiritual roots of water, wood, and fire, while Yu Dalang has a single gold spiritual root, and his root value and qualifications are not much better than his. In addition, Yu Dalang still cultivates the authentic "Xuantian Sword". The technique is extremely powerful!
Originally, although he didn't have high hopes for this big competition, he would be satisfied with a small win anyway. If he faced Yu Dalang directly...he couldn't beat Yu Dalang at all!
Yu Li exuded helpless resentment, but Yu Wan curiously asked Li Hao and Yu Lin:
"Do you have any competition today?"
Li Hao, this boring gourd, finally said:
"Yes, Arena No. 9, No. 989."
Yu Lin said softly:
"I have one too, in Arena No. 6, No. 663."
Yu Hang waved the number plate in his hand and said:
"It seems that my rank is the latest, No. 2598, Arena No. 1. I guess I can't be ranked this time."
After all, Qin Yushan's number plate is 1786, Arena No. 8, so counting, Yuhang's number plate is really the latest.
"Sister!"
While everyone was discussing, Yu Chen's voice came from behind. Yu Wan turned around and looked back, and saw Yu Chen and Xing Ye walking over.
"Ah Chen! You are finally here." Yu Wan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yu Chen with a smile.
"Hehe, I've made sister worried." Yu Chen scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled.
"You, just don't miss it." Yu Wan felt relieved at this moment. After all, this was also a rare trial, and she didn't want Yu Chen to be absent.
Then he looked at Xing Ye beside him and said, "Elder brother."
Xing Ye remained taciturn, but nodded politely to Yu Wan.
Yu Wan was curious about Xing Ye's ring number, so she asked:
"I wonder... what is the arena number, senior brother? Is there a competition today?"
Several people also raised their ears, curious about Xing Ye's answer.
"Taiwan No. 1, card No. 46." Xing Ye said.
"So far forward?! Senior Brother Xing is so lucky. Could it be that he queued up early to get it?" Yu Chen couldn't help but be surprised.
"No, it's because I was there when the cards were dealt, and I took them as soon as possible." Xing Ye said calmly.
"Where are you, Chen?" Qin Yushan was curious about Yu Chen's brand name, so she came to Yu Chen's side and asked.
"Hey, I got it relatively late, and the number is already over three thousand, plate number 3019, arena number nine, what about you?" Yu Chen explained.
"Boom, boom, boom...boom! Boom! Boom!"
While everyone was gathering and chatting, more and more people in the square were attracted by the sound of drums, and there were even some monks who had already moved in to build foundations and golden elixirs on various peaks.
As the last three drums fell, the sound of the shaking drum stopped!
The sudden silence of the voice made everyone who was chatting on the scene seem to be attracted. They stopped talking and looked up at the position of Jian Xiu, the head of the Xuantian Sect in front of the Yuhua Palace.
Jian Xiu stood up from his seat, slowly took a few steps forward, and looked at the dense crowd of people in the venue. With a little luck, his deep and deep voice was very penetrating, and his words were clearly conveyed to everyone's ears. Without any nonsense, the opening remarks went straight to the point:
"Today is the intra-sect competition held by our sect to select talents for the Taotie Secret Realm. Of these twenty-five arenas, the ten on the left are competition venues for disciples in the Qi training period, and the ten on the right are for foundation-building disciples. The five battlegrounds in front are the battlegrounds for Jindan disciples.
There were a large number of people participating in this competition, reaching two-thirds of the total number of disciples in the sect, and the three-day period was too short.
Therefore, the rules of the competition have been changed. The Golden Core Stage is a one-on-one competition as usual. However, there are many foundation building and Qi training disciples, and the time is tight. The elimination rate needs to be increased, and the difficulty for you is also increased.
Therefore, the first round of the competition for all foundation building and Qi training disciples will be divided into two groups, odd numbers and even numbers. It will be a comparison between four people on the same stage, which is equivalent to one versus three for each person. As long as among the four, the one who can stand on the stage in the end The person who wins this round will be promoted to the next round of competition, and the next round will return to normal, a one-on-one battle. Although it is more difficult for you, it is a good battle to test your strength!
After all, our sect finally selected ten Qi practitioners, ten foundation builders, and five golden elixir disciples. These twenty-five disciples will go to Xuankong Temple, where they will meet with disciples from several major sects. Battle and compete!
The final ten Qi-training disciples, ten Foundation-building disciples, and five Jindan masters were selected to enter the Taotie Secret Realm.
And how many places our sect can occupy depends on your strength! "
After listening to the rules explained by Jian Xiu, everyone, especially the disciples who practiced Qi and built the foundation, immediately exploded!
"What?! Four people fighting! Oh my God! It's really fatal..."
"No, it's a one versus three... I'm at the fifth level of Qi training. If the first three cultivation levels are all higher than mine, then wouldn't I be completely abused..."
"This...this is so unfair!!"
"Haha... How can there be fairness in cultivation? This is just a competition within the sect. The selected people will then have to compete with the elites of each major sect. Those people are not restricted by the sect's rules, and casualties are inevitable."
"That's it, you cowards are scared off now? Just thinking about it makes my blood boil and I really want to fight. I like these rules, hahaha... it's fun!"
"Yes, if there is no excitement, this competition will be boring. This is very good and more challenging!"
…
When Yu Wan and others heard this rule, and then listened to people's comments, everyone had different thoughts. Some were worried, some were waiting to see what happened, and some were taking it indifferently.
Although Yu Wan was worried, she didn't feel too worried. In fact, she was still looking forward to it. She was just worried that Yu Chen would suffer a loss.
There are also Da Lang and Xiao Lang. You can see from their expressions that except for Da Lang, who is heartless and likes to fight, all of them have worried expressions on their faces.
On the contrary, Xing Ye and Li Hao took it calmly, especially Xing Ye, who looked forward to the situation with an unmoving and upright expression.
"Hey, this rule is good. It makes the dragon want to come up and challenge three." The green dragon dragon on Yu Wan's shoulder tilted its little head and looked forward eagerly.
Yu Wan was speechless:...
"The rules don't say whether you can bring a spiritual pet. However, I think it is a test of personal strength. Maybe you are not allowed to use a spiritual pet? If I compete, you will stay with Dahuang first. Don't run around, you know? ?”
Yu Wan still felt uneasy and explained.
She really didn't want to go to Fengguanya anymore, for fear that if she didn't pay attention, the stinky dragon would cause trouble for her.
Qinglong Jiao was dissatisfied and said:
"Tch, does Jiao love to get into trouble that much? Master Jiao, I'm just curious. I wonder how you, a stinky girl, can be so cautious!"
"Anyway, it's okay for you to stay with Dahuang." Yu Wan slapped it on its head as it kept leaning forward.
"Quiet!!"
The crowd's discussion became louder and louder. Jian Xiu spoke at this time to bring everyone back to their thoughts and gave instructions again:
"The most important thing is that injuries are inevitable during the competition, but you are not allowed to kill people until they die! If you violate the rules, you will be punished for the crime of harming your fellow disciples! Do you remember this?"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Disciples, please remember the teachings!"
After listening to everyone's replies, Jian Xiu nodded slightly, quite satisfied, and then solemnly said to everyone:
"Okay, not much else to say, let's compete! Let's begin!"
"Boom! Boom!..."
After Jian Xiu finished speaking, he heard the flurry of drums sounding again! Immediately afterwards, twenty-five Nascent Soul Sovereigns flew up, flew directly to the center of the arena, sat in a coiled position, and luckily created an isolation barrier against the arena below them.
As the leader of Jade Peak, Shi Liang finally issued the order:
"In the first round of Qi training and foundation building, those with numbers ending in odd numbers 1,357,9 will be assigned their own numbers to enter their respective arenas! In the second round, those with numbers 2,46,80 in even numbers will compete on stage! Jin Dan Zhenren one on one , the competition begins!”
Then the crowd started to commotion, and they came to their own arena one after another, and calculated according to the rules when they would take the stage.
Yu Wan and others are no exception. At this moment, everyone is looking for their own stage. Even if it is not their turn yet, they can look at other people's competitions and find some skills or things to pay attention to.
Yu Wan brought Qinglong Jiao and Dahuang to Arena No. 5, and Yu Xiaolang came with her.
"Sister Wan, how do you calculate the order of entry? It makes me dizzy."
Yu Xiaolang raised his head and looked around Arena No. 5, looking at the qi training disciples around him. These were all his opponents, so he had to take a closer look.
"Uh... well... anyway, just go up when you hear the call."
Yu Wan was ashamed. It was true that she was not good at mathematics. She was a little confused when it came to applying time records, so she had to answer perfunctorily.
However, considering that her number 520 is in the fifth arena, it is an even number. In other words, excluding half of the people with odd numbers, there should be 260 people with even numbers to fight, but there is only one person to fight. Then four people went up, so it would be her turn at the 65th battle, but the ring number was number 5. If the calculation is correct, she should be in the 13th ring in the 5th ring. It will be her turn.
Thinking about this regular-paced battle, the efficiency is indeed much faster, but it also increases the difficulty and pressure for every disciple who participates.
Thinking that Yu Xiaolang's number plate was No. 1024, even though it was an even number, it was more than half the difference from hers. In the first round, it was expected that the two of them would not be facing each other. This fact made Yu Wan feel relieved.
After all, she really doesn’t want to deal with her own people first as soon as she comes on stage...
While Yu Xiaolang was still looking around at more and more people, the first battle on the fifth stage officially began!
The four disciples whose numbers were called, all male disciples, have all flown up!
The four of them stood at the four corners of the ten-foot-wide square arena, staring at the other three opponents with wary expressions.
Zhenjun Nascent Soul, who was floating on top of the ring, spoke calmly with pressure:
"The competition begins!"
