Volume 3 Chapter 136 Battle for quotas 2
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but in the first round of the lottery, Xuan Ling was lucky enough to get a bye, allowing her to directly enter the second round. However, drawing a bye in the first and second rounds is actually of no use. Only if you draw a bye in the third and final round, then you are unlucky, because at that time, Those who receive a bye can directly obtain a quota.
Amid the shouts of the speaker, No. 1 and No. 2 both rushed onto the stage, and their figures immediately melted into the mist-like formation of battle flags. Both of them came from the Twelve Halls, and they could be said to be at war with each other. It didn't take long for one of them to be sent out of the circle, it was No. 2. Bai Fei saw that her hair was a little disheveled and her face was horribly pale. It was obvious that she had just had a fierce fight, but her opponent was still superior and was eliminated. Her teacher immediately took action to stabilize her, and then they both retreated.
The first round of the competition ended very quickly, and it was so fast that it was a bit unexpected. It was obvious that they all tried their best and used their killing moves as soon as they made a move. Only in this way were they defeated by Zhan Flag. The formation was forcibly sent out, and being sent out meant elimination.
It is worth mentioning that, except for the Saint of the earth branch and the Saint of the human branch of the Great Xiang Palace who were drawn into the same group, and the Saint of the Earth branch won in the end, the Saint of the Dan branch and the Saint of the Desire branch of the Great Medicine Palace both faced off against each other. The people of the Second Hall ended sadly. It's no wonder that Yan Wushang is so persistent in wanting Liuli's team to take first place in the Demon-Slaying Battlefield. Otherwise, facing opponents like the Twelve Halls, it would be really difficult for Yan Feiling to get this spot. Although you can't see clearly what's going on inside, you can guess one thing or two from the duration. Only when a group of people from the Twelve Halls competes will a longer-term stalemate occur. From this, it can be seen that with Compared with the Great Sage Palace, the Great Medicine Palace and the Great Prime Minister Palace are really inferior to the Great Sage Palace in terms of actual combat strength.
After the first round of competition, there was an hour's rest, and then the second round of drawing lots took place. This time, Xuan Ling failed to draw a bye card, but the bye card still fell into the hands of the Grand Prime Minister and was drawn by the Saint of the Earth Branch.
Except for a few people, everyone else did not think highly of Xuan Ling at all, not to mention that her opponent this time was Dongfang Keping, the Holy Son of the Great Holy Palace. Bai Fei and Dongfang Keping are not familiar with each other, but Liuli once mentioned that Dongfang Keping is Dongfang Buyi's cousin. For Dongfang Buyi's sake, he also hopes that Dongfang Keping can get the so-called love house and bird. One spot. However, now that he faced Xuan Ling, in Bai Fei's heart, the balance of favoritism turned again. He couldn't see clearly the fighting scene inside, but he could guess something from the expressions of those strong men. The expressions of those strong men were completely different from those in the previous fighting. Bai Fei guessed that they must have seen what Chen Qiuyue had given him. From the power of Xuan Ling's top magic weapon, it can be seen that Xuan Ling should have the upper hand. As expected, it didn't take long before Dongfang Keping was forcibly sent out by the battle flag formation.
Most people couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. This result was beyond their expectations. Dongfang Buyi's expression did not change at all. She knew in her heart that her junior sister was able to defeat her cousin solely because of the power of that top-level magic weapon.
Lao, she naturally knows exactly who the magic weapon belongs to, but it’s just that she has her cousin on one side and her junior sister on the other. Who she wants to win this match more may not even be decided by herself. idea.
After the second round, only five people were left to compete for the final battle. In addition to Xuan Ling and the saint from the branch of the Great Xiang Palace who had a bye in the second round, the other three were from the Great Puppet Palace in the Twelve Palaces. The saint Song Yaopin, the saint Lu Sisi of the Daqi Palace and the saint Hu Xiaoxiao of the Dayin Palace. You Shanshan, the saint of the Daqi Palace, and Zhong Wulan, a student of Tang Lei from the Dahun Palace, both unfortunately lost in this round.
In the eyes of everyone, in this last round of competition, no matter who the saint from the Grand Prime Minister's Palace branch faced, she had no chance of winning, and even she herself thought so. In this way, the remaining four people all hope that they can be drawn into the same group as her. After all, seeing victory right in front of them, they cannot avoid such a fluke. But don't forget, one person must get a bye in this last round, and this person can get a spot directly. As a result, before the lottery started, everyone was already full of expectations. Who would have such incredible luck? Is it the two saints from the Grand Prime Minister's Palace who scored twice, or is it the turn of events?
There is a saying that is absolutely correct. The same good luck will not fall on the same person twice in a row. Amid everyone's expectations, the saint from the underground branch of the Daxiang Palace, who had a bye in the last round, was the first to be tested. She drew number three, which meant that she had to have a final battle with number four. When this number was drawn, her face couldn't help but darken. She knew that she would eventually become a stepping stone for others. Then, it was Xuan Ling's turn to draw lots. She got the No. 1 sign, but failed to get the bye sign. Xuan Ling's expression was still calm. In the previous battle, she had already established strong confidence. The magic weapon brought her confidence, and she also believed that she would be able to win another victory in the final battle and live up to her senior sister's high expectations for her.
The remaining three brands are lying quietly in the dark bamboo tube. They are the No. 2 brand, the No. 4 brand and the much-anticipated bye brand. When Hu Xiaoxiao, the saint of Dayin Hall, drew the number two card, the crowd became noisy again. Saint Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh. She didn't expect to get a bye, but she got the most terrible No. 2 sign, which made her very unwilling. Even if she got the No. 4 sign, she still had He was confident enough to defeat his opponent, but now, his opponent could even defeat Dongfang Keping, the Holy Son of the Great Holy Palace, and he really had no confidence that he could win against him. Not to mention the secret regret in Hu Xiaoxiao's heart, in the hearts of the remaining Saint Son Song Yaopin of the Great Puppet Palace and Saint Lu Sisi of the Great Instrument Palace, they had actually breathed a sigh of relief. No matter who drew the bye card, the other one had it. Confidence wins the final battle.
When Song Yaopin pulled out the No. 4 sign from the dark bamboo tube, it meant that the sixth spot luckily landed on the head of the Saint Lu Sisi of the Great Instrument Hall.
Next, are the final two battles. Xuan Ling and Hu Xiaoxiao have been in the ring for several hours. This length of time has far exceeded any previous fight, which shows how fierce and even tragic the fight between the two is. After a while, a figure flew out from the battle flag formation. Everyone took a closer look, but it was Hu Xiaoxiao, the saint of Dayin Palace.
, which means that Xuan Ling got the seventh spot.
Hu Xiaoxiao was lying in the arms of her teacher Hu Hongshuang, and she had fallen into a coma. At the previous moment, everyone could see that not only was her hair disheveled, her face was pale, there was blood spilling from the corners of her mouth, and even her clothes were torn to pieces. The ground was unsightly, and the white skin underneath was exposed in some places. As soon as Hu Hongshuang and Hu Xiaoxiao stepped back, Xuanling jumped out from the ring. Her figure was a little sluggish. As soon as she landed, her steps faltered. As soon as her teacher Feng Yi came up to greet her, she sat down cross-legged to adjust. After taking a breath, it was obvious that she was able to win this battle only after going through a lot of hardships.
In contrast, the final battle was clear and straightforward. As expected, the saint from the branch of the Grand Prime Minister Palace was sent out of the battle flag formation before even half an hour, and the last place was announced. winner.
The battle for quotas that happens once every eight years has come to an end. Although it didn't last long, no one was disappointed, and instead talked about it even more. The cultivators from various places dispersed, and what followed was talk that could not be dissipated for a long time.
The quotas are confirmed, and there will be three days for the eight people to adjust their mentality. It took Xuanling less than a day to restore her condition to its peak, and she found her good friend Gan Yuan alone. Gan Yuan and Xuan Ling were rivals before, but later became good friends who talked about everything. This time, the good friends were going to participate in the competition, and Gan Yuan naturally came to cheer them up. Xuan Ling had confessed early on that if she was lucky enough to get a spot after the competition was over, she hoped Gan Yuan could do her a favor. This job is to use physiognomy to calculate what happened before and after Feixue Falls.
It is said that it is difficult for a doctor to heal himself, and the same is true for physiognomy. Both Xuanling and Gan Yuan's physiognomy have reached the four stages of awareness, instrument, method and sound. The two are good friends. Gan Yuan is the best in this kind of thing. First choice. The two chose a secret place and got into the mood without any nonsense. Originally, once physiognomy entered the Dharma stage, it was completely possible for physiognomy to arise from the heart and abandon external objects. However, this time, Gan Yuan was rare. He took out a photo plate, his fingers were flying, and he was mumbling something.
"How is it?" A few hours later, Gan Yuan stopped what she was doing, her face turned slightly pale, and Xuan Ling saw this and asked.
"I don't know why you are doing this. Are you worried about something?" Gan Yuan asked without answering.
"That's not true. It's just that in the past few years, my heart has been unable to calm down. I tried to calculate, but once I touched the Feixue Waterfall, I couldn't move forward any further. I guess that this time the Feixue Waterfall will definitely not So peaceful. Now, can you deduce anything?"
"I have calculated that after entering the Feixue Waterfall this time, you will benefit a lot. Obviously it is not what you thought... Hey, wait..." Gan Yuan's voice suddenly stopped, and her fingers moved together again. He started paddling, closing his eyes and thinking about something. When Xuan Ling saw it, she didn't dare to disturb her anymore.
Come and try it quickly. 】
After a long time, Gan Yuan opened her eyes again, but the movements of her hands still did not stop. Without waiting for Xuan Ling to ask, she spoke first: "It seems a little unusual, but it's not a big deal. However, when I wanted to go deeper into the deduction, I was forced back by a flash of red."
