After the battle between Ke Wei and Xu Peng, everyone seemed to have lost interest, and even the tone of the battle had cooled down.
"Li Hong, wins...!"
"Zhang Feng, win...!"
…
Not long after, the remaining pairs of people on the stone platform also decided the winner one after another. The victorious seven people left the battlefield through the "space conversion platform".
"Haha~, Blood Five wins...!"
"Wow... Xu Peng actually lost!"
Many disciples were huddled together in the audience, and they were both happy and worried, but they were not the same ones who had placed bets before.
"Here, I'll give you five hundred taels of silver! It's really abominable. This year's brute force competition has been going smoothly all the way. I didn't expect that I lost again when I faced the unlucky Viper Blood Five!"
The fat disciple at the home court cursed and took out several bags of heavy white square objects with a pained look on his face.
"Blood Five bastard, bastard~!" Seeing the disciples "accepting the gift" all showed cheerful and bright smiles, the fat man felt very unwilling. Secretly, he scolded all eighteen generations of Blood Five's ancestors.
It’s a shame, it’s in my heart!
"Hmph~...!"
Suddenly, a sinister nasal sound reached his ears, and the clever disciple turned his head and glanced subconsciously.
Immediately afterwards, the disciple's pupils shrank and he suddenly turned around with a look of horror on his face, as if he had encountered a ghost.
"Shh~, shut up...!"
After calming down, the clever disciple swallowed a mouthful of saliva, quickly touched the people gathered in front of him with their heads down, and said in a low voice: "Blood Five, right behind us!"
"You can't be...,"
Before the word "liar" was uttered, the hairs on the back stood up, and several disciples who were extremely surprised trembled and turned their heads involuntarily.
From the exit of the pitch-black passage, two bright and fierce lights shot out. At first glance, they looked like bloodthirsty wild beasts that penetrated people.
"Hi~...!"
Everyone who noticed the abnormality took a deep breath. Immediately afterwards, everyone had an idea and quickly regained their composure and turned around pretending not to know anything.
Only fools mind their own business!
"Tough luck~! I just hope the snake doesn't hear it!"
The eyes of the disciples who had spoken earlier flickered, and they suddenly gritted their teeth in panic. With the thought of gambling on their luck, they followed the others' actions and turned around calmly, trying to get through.
"Fat man, just you three, turn around...!"
The cold voice carried an irresistible flavor, the footsteps gradually grew louder, and the surrounding area became strangely quiet.
Immediately, a male figure with a strong evil aura walked towards him slowly, with sinister pupils and a black sword, especially being stared at by the pupils gave people a creepy feeling.
This person came to sit in the auditorium, but happened to hear someone talking about him behind his back!
"Huh~...! It's okay, it's okay, can he still eat us?!"
The scalps of the three people were numb, and they could only feel their own heartbeats clearly audible. After a slight tremor, their bodies suddenly froze.
However, even if they were reluctant, after hesitating for a long time, the three of them still bit the bullet and turned around slowly.
Immediately afterwards, the eyes inevitably met, and the pair of terrifying cold pupils shot out from behind. Several people's breathing suddenly became stagnant again, and their whole bodies felt like they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Senior Brother Bloody Fifth, please forgive me!"
The three people quickly stood up and knelt on the ground, lowering their heads tightly. Their hearts were pounding, and they did not dare to look up at the knife-wielding man approaching them.
"Haha, Blood Five! Are you bullying your junior brother again? What a coincidence, why don't I come too!"
A joking chuckle sounded, and Xue Wu turned around and frowned. Immediately afterwards, six figures emerged from the passage again. They were the inner disciples who had just won the competition.
"Senior brother, have mercy on me, have mercy on me!"
The three people who heard this suddenly trembled, and their hearts were filled with anguish: Before the ghosts and gods were sent away, another giant Buddha came. This is really the rhythm of being besieged!
"Give up your position, and then... get out of here!"
Seeing his archrival Ke Wei, who was often against him, and the other inner disciples who had advanced to the finals, Blood Five Qing knew that there was nothing left to do, and he immediately drove away the three trembling disciples in front of him in disappointment. .
"Thank you, senior brother, thank you, senior brother...!"
"Tsk, tsk, you run really fast!"
As soon as the three of them, who were extremely surprised, took off, the leader of the six inner disciples quickly ducked in front of the man holding the knife.
Immediately afterwards, Ke Wei glanced sideways at the three people who were disappearing among the audience, and he was speechless in admiration from the bottom of his heart.
"Eh~, Fifth Blood Brother, have you changed your gender? Are you willing to let them go?" Ke Wei turned around with a smile in his eyes, but saw the gloomy face of the knife-wielding man in front of him. He immediately added jealousy and asked pretending to be surprised.
"Hmph~...!" His eyes swept over the surprised man holding the sword.
After Xue Wu sneered, regardless of what the people around him thought, he strode forward alone and placed the sword horizontally on the place where the three people were before him, while he sat down domineeringly.
"Damn it!" The six inner disciples, including the sword-wielding man whose smile suddenly froze, gritted their teeth with flashing expressions, and their faces suddenly turned ugly.
"Ke Wei, you are not far from death!"
At the same time, Xue Wu, who was very angry, had murderous intentions in his heart. The other party made it clear that he was asking questions knowingly, but he still pretended to be... like that!
"This blood five is really powerful!"
Zhu Bupang and the other two looked back, raised their eyebrows and spoke to the man in green. I saw the remaining inner disciples, all with gloomy faces, looking for empty seats alone.
He didn't know if the two fat and thin disciples next to him had bad luck. Just as Feng Ling was about to respond to them, he received a message that was almost a "threatening letter"!
"Boy, I heard that you are a related household? Hey, don't let me run into you!"
Xuewu snorted coldly and looked at the man in green at a 45-degree angle in front of him, with a hint of haze in his eyes. The fat and thin disciples were directly ignored by him.
The achievements of Zhu Bupang and the two are obvious to all. Although Blood Five is not afraid of the strength of the two, he also knows that the two of them still have "two brushes". Unlike the man in Tsing Yi, who just mixes together to make soy sauce!
"You should pray not to be touched by me!"
The cold words were transmitted into the invisible air, the wind around him suddenly stopped, the light in his sight dimmed, and only a bright back suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes.
It seemed that between heaven and earth, there was only the man in green in front of him. This weird feeling made Xue Wu, who was feeling guilty, feel hairy in his heart, and felt so uncomfortable that he almost suffocated.
"Huh!" Fortunately, it didn't take long for him to return to normal. Immediately, Xue Wu looked at the back of the man in green with cold eyes and spoke a few harsh words through his voice.
During this period, Zhu Bupang and the others also felt the coldness and subconsciously glanced back again.
Not wanting to happen to meet Xue Wu's cold eyes lingering on the three of them, under an invisible collision, the two sides were full of gunpowder.
Immediately afterwards, after receiving the message from the man in green, the two men glared at Xue Wu with evil expressions, and then turned around proudly.
…
Time passed quickly, and at the moment when several people collided, the seven people off the field had already decided the winner.
This time, Xu Peng and Brute Force had better luck and did not encounter each other. Naturally, they both successfully advanced to the finals without any doubt. The other two people who advanced were all unfamiliar faces.
At least, Feng Ling and the others have never seen each other before!
"The final is ahead of schedule and will continue at the end of today...!"
While everyone was excitedly looking at the four people standing under the field, the man with the purple gold crown at the VIP table raised his eyebrows and immediately acted according to the previously discussed plan.
"Uh...!" Everyone was stunned for more than a second, and then they all became excited and cheered. The whole scene was extremely noisy and boiling violently.
"Dismissal!"
This sound resounded throughout the audience. The Yuqing Sect Master first looked up at the sky and saw that it was approaching noon. Then he turned around and led a group of elders to leave first.
"Please ask a few deacons to announce to the other inner disciples who are not present: the finals are ahead of schedule!"
As soon as Feng Tianjue and others left, the Ci-mei old man who had sent people to organize thousands of disciples to leave seemed to have thought of something and quickly opened his mouth to explain to the dozen or so deacons.
Before a cup of tea was available, the crowd dispersed like water, and looking around the whole place, only a few dozen people were still waiting.
"The show is about to begin!"
At this moment, no one noticed that he stood up and looked at the back of the man holding the knife as he walked away proudly. The man in green curled up with a stern smile, and asked the two fat and thin disciples beside him to fight for the blood. A cold war.
…
As the end of the day approaches, the duel arena is buzzing with people, and handsome male and female disciples can be seen everywhere standing up and cheering.
The final of the annual inner gate competition is here! Everyone was extremely excited.
Compared to the slow wait of several years, the finals of the Inner Disciple Competition came more quickly. It seemed that someone was deliberately manipulating the process of the competition in secret, constantly squeezing and shortening the time of the competition.
"In this first round of finals, the top ten will be selected! Please evaluate the bottom ten finalists and draw lots to compete against the top ten!"
As Elder Chen spoke, everyone consciously closed their mouths, and the scene quickly became quiet, but it was difficult to conceal the excitement in their eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking, the screen rose again, and the list of disciples who entered the finals was listed based on their strength evaluation.
They are: Cheng Ye, Kuang Tu, Ye Hui, Ke Wei, Blood Five, Brute Force, Xu Peng, Zhu Bu Pang, Gou Bu Shou..., and Feng Ling!
Among the twenty people, most of them are evaluated and ranked according to the ranking order of the previous competition and their performance in this competition.
However, what people didn't expect was that Feng Ling was ranked last! This also means that he will be the first to draw lots.
"Tsk, tsk, that's interesting!"
Many of the elders he recognized had expressions on their faces as if they were watching a show. Feng Tianjue's expression was also very rich. He stared straight at the man in green on the field, trying to find a trace of emotion in his eyes.
It's a pity that while he was impressed, he was also disappointed. Amidst countless discussions on and off the field, the man in green still looked calm, as if he hadn't heard anything, and slowly walked up to the old man to draw lots.
"Evaluation is just a formality. Don't feel any psychological pressure when fighting, and don't be discouraged if you fail!"
Elder Chen spoke very tactfully, glanced at the man with the purple gold crown at the VIP table intentionally or unintentionally, and sighed helplessly at the message he had just received.
Secret operation!
I think I have lived a long life, and now I am going to end up with no guarantee!
"Survival of the fittest!"
Just when Elder Chen was still a little overwhelmed by the "fraudulent" obstacle in his mind, the man in green murmured something secretly, and he understood this arrangement thoroughly.
Obviously, the top ten in the evaluation are the ones that all the elders are most interested in and are most likely to win the top ten in the finals. Using the bottom ten to draw the top ten will undoubtedly prevent the top ten from being directly eliminated in the collision.
Of course, some people will complain: This is unfair, there may be dark horses buried in the bottom ten!
Anyone can think of this. It's a pity that in the eyes of the senior officials of Yuqing Sect, when there is a collision between the new and old people with similar strength, the one who emerges is the dark horse, and the one who cannot be killed... no matter how dark the horse is, it is useless!
"Thank you, elder, for reminding me!"
The man in green clothes raised his head and looked at the old man. Faced with the former's clasped fist and thanked him, a hint of guilt flashed in the latter's eyes that was not easy to detect, but was still detectable.
"Well, when the lottery results come out, let's work hard!"
Hearing this, the man in green nodded and smiled, but he turned around carelessly, slowly stepped aside, and stood still stiffly.
From the beginning of the lottery to the end, during this process that would make ordinary people extremely excited and inexplicably happy, Feng Ling didn't even look at the screen.
Because he doesn't care at all!
No matter who the opponent is, the result is the same, it's just a matter of "sequence".
I don’t know how the leaders of these dozens of inner disciples will feel if they know the true thoughts of the man in green!
I'm afraid I will spit all over the floor, or sneer at you, or look down upon...
In short, no matter which one of the ten people he faced, except for those elders who had met Feng Ling at the core disciple awards and knew that he had "eighth rank cultivation", the huge auditorium was full of people, but No one believed that he could win the first game of the final!
Just like what happened at this time...
"Hiss...!" After the ten people drew lots, Elder Chen waved his hand and announced the results.
"Feng Ling vs... Blood Five?!"
After seeing the information listed on the screen clearly, everyone was in an uproar and all focused on the four blood-red characters on the first line of the screen.
"Haha~, now, that guy is finished!"
"Alas~! A showdown like this with no suspense is of little interest, so we might as well just admit defeat!"
Immediately afterwards, the disciples reacted one by one and cast disdainful glances at the man in green who was still "pretending to be calm".
Many people even stood up and sneered openly, asking the man in Tsing Yi to abstain from voting!
