As the deputy head of Tengyue Mansion, 'Ren Zhong', introduced himself, the bald man leading the group from Hongtao Mansion also spoke.
"Everyone, what Mr. Ren said is also what I want to say. Since he has already said it, I will not say that my name is 'Liu Hongguang', but the second elder of Hongtao Mansion."
The bald man, who was also the representative sent by the Hong Tao Mansion to preside over the ranking competition for the Sky Ranking Ranking, introduced himself after Ren Zhong finished speaking.
Hongtao Mansion, like Tengyue Mansion and Chongxiao Mansion, are fourth-rate forces.
However, compared with the deputy head of Tengyue Mansion, who was present, and the great elder of Chongxiao Mansion, Xu Cen, the second elder of Hongtao Mansion seemed to be nothing.
"It seems that the Hong Tao Mansion doesn't care much about this competition for the Sky Ranking Ranking. It actually only sent a second elder to preside over it."
Soon, after learning the identity of the bald man, someone could not help but whisper.
If someone takes the initiative, others will naturally follow suit.
After a moment, this huge chessboard with no visible edges started to get lively again.
"The second elder of Hongtao Mansion, the elder of Chongxiao Mansion, and the deputy master of Tengyue Mansion, don't seem to be on the same level at all. I don't know what Hongtao Mansion thinks, but only sent one second elder."
"That's right. How can the second elder of Hongtao Mansion maintain the fairness of the Sky Ranking Ranking Competition?"
"In our Chongxiao Mansion area, the only people who have the strength to break the fairness of the Chongxiao Ranking Ranking Competition are the people from Chongxiao Mansion. This time, if there is no deputy head of Tengyue Mansion, and the chief elder of Chongxiao Mansion has to ignore Chongxiao If there are rules for ranking matches, what can Elder Ri from Hongtao Mansion do to resist?"
"That's right! In my opinion, the second elder of Hongtao Mansion is just here to attend a critical moment for a formality. With his little strength, it will not be effective at all."
Seeing that the second elder of Hongtao Mansion, Liu Hongguang, didn't seem to care about their discussion, more people suddenly joined in the unscrupulous discussion on this exquisite chess game.
Liu Hongguang stood there in the air with a calm face, as if he didn't hear the discussions around him at all.
In fact, at his level of cultivation, he could hear clearly even if the people present were just whispering, not to mention those people were still talking about him unscrupulously.
Therefore, the reason why he looked calm was because he didn't care about these discussions at all.
However, just because Liu Hongguang didn't care, it didn't mean that the people from Hongtao Mansion who came with him didn't care. These elders and disciples from Hongtao Mansion all showed angry faces.
Several people even opened their mouths to defend themselves.
However, before their voices could emerge, they were drowned out by the noisy discussions around them.
Not far away, the great elder of Chongxiao Mansion, 'Xu Cen', heard the discussions around him and the corners of his mouth twitched unnoticeably.
Do these people say Liu Hongguang is not as good as him?
You must know that although he was a generation older than Liu Hongguang, Liu Hongguang's strength had already surpassed him ten years ago. He followed their Chongxiao Palace Master to Hongtao Palace as a guest, and he fought against Liu Hongguang. Without a hundred moves, he was defeated.
In that battle, except for using holy patterns, Taoist talismans and other external forces, he used all means, but in the end he was still not as good as Liu Hongguang.
Therefore, in that battle, he was completely convinced by his defeat!
Now, when people around him said that Liu Hongguang was not as good as him, his face felt hot and he felt a little ashamed.
"The second elder of Hongtao Mansion, 'Liu Hongguang', is not that simple!"
If there is anyone present, except those who are familiar with Liu Hongguang, who does not agree with the comments of those around him, I am afraid that there are only a few people including Duan Lingtian.
As early as when the three major and fourth-rate forces came together, Duan Lingtian discovered a problem, that is, the chief elder of Chongxiao Mansion, Xu Cen, was not only polite to the deputy head of Tengyue Mansion, "Zhong Ren", but also to the second elder of Hongtao Mansion. 'Liu Hongguang' was also extremely polite.
Xu Cen was also a member of the fourth-rate force, and he was also the Great Elder of Chongxiao Mansion. Even for the sake of Hongtao Mansion, if Liu Hongguang was weak, he would not be so polite.
After all, this is a world where the strong are respected.
It is impossible for a person of equal origin and stronger strength to treat a weaker person like this.
Similar to Duan Lingtian's idea, there are also several powerful men present from the three major fifth-rate forces in the Chongxiao Mansion area. Apart from them, they are Monk Hua, Jing Xuzi and Zhong Gu.
Judging from their current expressions, it was obvious that they did not agree with the comments of the people around them.
"Everyone, how about you listen to me?"
Just when the situation at the scene was getting a little uncontrollable, the deputy head of Tengyue Mansion, Ren Zhong, spoke. His voice contained true energy, which instantly overwhelmed the voices of everyone present and made those who were still discussing enthusiastically. They all closed their mouths.
After these people shut up, their eyes all fell on Ren Zhong.
They all wanted to know what the deputy head of Tengyue Mansion would say in such a situation.
Seeing that the scene became quiet, Ren Zhong then looked at Liu Hongguang, his voice still containing strong true energy, "This second elder of Hongtao Mansion, in terms of seniority, can be regarded as my uncle and nephew. However, in terms of strength, even I, I’m not sure I can beat him!”
As soon as Ren Zhong finished speaking, the scene that was already quiet fell into dead silence again.
The deputy head of Tengyue Mansion said that he was not confident of defeating a second elder of Hongtao Mansion?
is it possible?
"Are you kidding! Can the second elder of Hongtao Mansion be on par with the deputy master of Tengyue Mansion? Is it possible?"
"I think the deputy master of Tengyue Mansion said such words in order not to embarrass the second elder of Hongtao Mansion."
"I think so too."
Although Ren Zhong opened his mouth to help Liu Hongguang, few people present believed his words. They all thought that he told such lies in order to help the second elder of Hongtao Mansion resolve the embarrassing situation in front of him.
Seeing this, Ren Zhong couldn't help but frown.
Just when he was still about to explain, he was stopped by Liu Hongguang next to him. Liu Hongguang said lightly: "Mr. Ren, even I, the client, don't take this matter to heart, so you don't have to worry about your good intentions. , I understand it."
Since Liu Hongguang said so, Ren Zhong naturally didn't say anything more.
"Hong Guang, you are calmer than an old guy like me."
In the end, Ren Zhong couldn't help but sigh.
No matter what, today's theme is the upcoming ranking battle for the Sky Ranking.
Therefore, with the passage of time, the discussions about Liu Hongguang among those present gradually faded away.
Everyone's attention is focused on the ranking battle for the Sky Ranking.
"Everyone!"
When the dawn enveloped the earth, the deputy head of Tengyue Mansion, 'Zhong Ren', who was one of the hosts of today's Sky Ranking Ranking Competition, spoke at the right time, "Today is the first day of the Sky Sky Ranking Ranking Battle." Among the people who come to participate in the ranking battle of the Sky Ranking, there must be many people who already know the rules of the ranking battle of the Sky Ranking, but I think there are also some people who don’t know the rules.”
"Now, I will explain the rules of the Sky Ranking Ranking Competition in detail, so that no one will be unclear later."
As Ren Zhong finished speaking, he also began to introduce the rules of the ranking battle for the Sky Ranking.
What he said at the beginning were the rules that Duan Lingtian also knew.
The ranking battle for the Sky Ranking Ranking, no matter life or death!
Of course, if one party voluntarily admits defeat, the other party is not allowed to take action again. Ren Zhong and Liu Hongguang, as the hosts of this Chongxiao ranking battle, will also take action to save the opponent after he admits defeat.
Regardless of life or death!
Although almost everyone who came to participate in the Sky Ranking Ranking Competition already knew this rule, they still couldn't help but tremble when they heard Ren Zhong say it.
It is difficult for them to control their emotions when it is a matter of life and death.
There are even some people who have the intention of retreating.
Although you can admit defeat, when it comes to a real battle, where life and death are on the line, unless you are evenly matched, it is difficult to have the chance to admit defeat.
There are no specific rules for the ranking competition on the Sky Summit Ranking. The ten people standing at the end are the ones who can be ranked on the Sky Summit Ranking this year.
"In the ranking competition for the Sky Ranking, you are not allowed to use any external force, including holy weapons. Once used, your qualification to compete for the ranking will be revoked!"
Ren Zhong continued.
This is also very important.
No external force may be used.
You can only rely on your own strength to fight with others and compete for the qualifications to be ranked on the Sky Ranking.
The reason why there is such a rule is actually because those who set up the Sky Ranking are worried that those who come from the big forces will have external resources such as high-grade holy patterns and high-grade Taoist symbols given by the big forces. The big forces do not lack.
If we can rely on external forces, it will not be fair to those casual cultivators who come from grassroots backgrounds.
"You should have heard that there are no detailed rules for the ranking battle on the Sky Ranking. As long as the person who can stand at the end can be ranked on the Sky Ranking! Of course, the last thing mentioned here is until there is no one left. Challenge, at that time, the ranking battle for the Sky Ranking will be truly over."
Ren Zhong continued.
At this moment, in full view of everyone, Ren Zhong and Liu Hongguang looked at each other, and in tacit understanding, they raised the crutches and giant hammers in their hands and struck them into the void above the exquisite chess game.
This time, the two hit in different directions.
boom! boom!
Following two soft sounds, everyone present could clearly feel that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Linglong Chess Game was in chaos, and it took a while to calm down.
At the same time, they clearly saw that ten chess pieces suddenly flew up on the Linglong chess board, including five black chess pieces and five white chess pieces.
After the ten chess pieces rose into the air, they hung in the air, as if there was an invisible force holding them up.
"this"
At the same time, a group of people present, including Duan Lingtian, could not help but widen their eyes in surprise.
