You Buyu didn't want to go down at first, but now because of Qianqiu's words, she decided to go down and give it a try, thinking that if she could help Qianqiu, she would also relieve herself of the guilt of deceiving Qianqiu.
Qianqiu said as he walked: "There are not many people left in the third round. There are only a few dozen people left. Silently, you have to be mentally prepared."
"What kind of mental preparation?" You Buyu was slightly confused and couldn't help asking.
Qianqiu smiled and said: "The fourth round is the qualifying round. As long as you survive this round, you can enter the knockout round of the top 20. If you pass the knockout round of the top 20, you will be ranked among the top ten. Race.”
"Okay, I will definitely try to enter the top ten qualifying rounds and go to the Ten Martial Arts Competition with you." Although You Buyu agreed with Qianqiu, she said in her heart: "You are really stupid, I don't want to win, you It would be nice to win.”
After thinking about it, You Buyu took a serious look at Qianqiu, who had his face turned sideways, and the feeling in his heart was indescribable.
The two walked to the drawing table and found that there were obviously many fewer people drawing lots today than before.
"Old Yang!" Qianqiu's sharp eyes saw Yang Xian standing not far away at a glance, and waved eagerly.
When Yang Xian heard this, he hurriedly gestured for Qianqiu to put down his hand.
Before Qianqiu could react, he still shouted loudly.
Bieling walked in front of Yang Xian. When he heard someone calling someone over there, he couldn't help but look over.
She also saw You Buyu and Qianqiu at a glance.
"It turns out he couldn't speak." Bie Ling smiled, looked at Yang Xian and said.
Yang Xian was so frightened by this look that he couldn't help but let out a hiss, knowing that something was wrong.
At this time, Qianqiu also saw Bieling, stood aside as if he was a thief, and pretended to whistle.
You Buyu didn't notice Qianqiu's little moves, and when he saw Bie Ling, he smiled and said hello to Bie Ling.
Bi Ling also nodded slightly to express his feelings.
Qianqiu pulled Yang Xian to the side and asked in a low voice: "Old Yang, didn't I tell you not to let her know?"
"Brother Qian, you exposed the secret yourself this time." Yang Xian said with a helpless smile, "By the way, there is some bad news that I haven't told you yet."
"What bad news? Has your injury recurred?" Qianqiu asked Yang Xian worriedly.
"No, no, no, I'm ticklish, not this. The bad news is that Qiqi, Xiao Hu and Erzhu were all eliminated and did not enter the third round." Yang Xian said regretfully.
"Really? What a pity, they are all pretty good, but they just met a stronger opponent." Qianqiu said regretfully.
"Brother Qian, let's not worry so much. They have gone back to practice and continue to work hard. Let's draw lots first." Yang Xian said, "What we brothers can do is help them fight hard."
"Yes!" Qianqiu nodded firmly.
Afterwards, several people drew their lottery numbers one after another.
Yang Xian opened the lottery and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid I'm the only high-level magician in the third round."
"How could it be? I just saw many high-level magicians, and you are not the only one. Moreover, even if your opponent is a magician, it is not a big deal, and it is not impossible to challenge if you surpass the level. At the beginning, we were intermediate magicians. At that time, he escaped from the monsters in the Tribulation Demon Stage! So what are these?" Qianqiu comforted.
"No. 1, this time the signature is definitely not empty!" Qianqiu said happily.
Yang Xian also revealed his signature number, and the word "one" immediately came into view.
"Brother Qian, we will be each other's opponents in the next match." Yang Xian looked at Qian Qiu with a somewhat distracted look and said.
Qianqiu was also stunned and said: "Lao Yang, this..."
Yang Xian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, we brothers have never fought against each other before, so we should take this opportunity to learn from each other. I don't think I am your opponent, but you know that I am. Like the palm of your hand."
"You old Yang, hey..." Qianqiu sighed.
Yang Xian was puzzled and asked: "Brother Qian, why are you sighing? Isn't it a good idea for us brothers to compete in a competition?"
"It's not bad, it's just that I don't think we can ever fight each other. I didn't expect this..." Qianqiu said with a frown.
Yang Xian hesitated for a moment, then patted Qianqiu's shoulder and said, "Junior Qian, it's naturally impossible for you and me to fight each other, but this is just a competition, and we can always decide the winner, right?"
"It's just that I feel..." Qianqiu said awkwardly.
Yang asked first: "Afraid you won't be able to do it?"
"Yeah." Qianqiu could only admit it.
"Don't worry, I won't be merciful. If I am merciless, how can I be worthy of being called a brother?" Yang Xian said.
Qianqiu lowered his eyelids and looked at Yang Xian.
Yang Xian also looked back and said seriously: "You take our competition seriously, which means you take me seriously. If you refuse to give your best, it will be the greatest insult to our brothers."
Qianqiu nodded helplessly and said, "In that case, Lao Yang, let's have a good fight tomorrow."
Yang Xian nodded confidently.
By the afternoon, all the competitions in the second round were completed.
Xiao Wu looked at the battle list and gave it to Lian Bo.
Lian Bo stroked his beard, looked at the list, and said, "There are still a lot of new disciples. These guys are really talented."
Xiao Wu nodded and said: "Master, there are many upsets this year. The reason I'm not surprised is because I'm used to it."
"Unpopular? Where to start?" Lian Bo couldn't help but asked strangely.
"Master, there's not much else to say. Just saying that there are two outer disciples who stand out." Xiao Wu said.
Lian Bo took a look and saw the two people on the lottery table, pointed at them and said, "You mean the yellow-haired boy and the black-robed boy?"
"Yes, these two outer disciples are the best." Xiao Wu said, "The yellow-haired boy is called Sun Muyun. He is a closed disciple accepted by Master Mu who traveled abroad twenty years ago. He has the sect's golden order as a token."
"I didn't expect that he was a closed disciple accepted by Senior Brother Mu. No wonder he is so strong. I thought that ever since Senior Brother Mu passed Jiangtu Hall to Junior Brother Feng, he has never returned to the Eastern Sect. He who has never accepted a disciple actually accepted him. A little apprentice." Lian Bo sighed repeatedly.
Xiao Wu nodded and agreed: "Master, what you said is right. Mu Yun is still around 20 years old, but his mentality is very mature. He always sticks to the point in every competition and treats others in a kind and gentle manner. He is indeed like Mu Yun. Disciples taught by Master."
Lian Bo pointed at another young man in black robe and asked: "Then who is this young man in black robe accepted into my Oriental School?"
Xiao Wu said: "Master, I have also checked carefully. The young man in black robe is called Hu Kai, and he is accepted by Master Guan into our Eastern Sect."
Lian Bo recalled: "Junior Brother Guan? I think it has been ten years since Junior Brother Guan left the Oriental Sect. I didn't expect that he would still worry about me, the Oriental Sect. When the leader comes back, I will definitely report it."
"Yes, Junior Brother Hu Kai also has the sect's golden order as a token. But..." Xiao Wu hesitated.
When Lian Bo saw that Xiao Wu was hesitating and speechless, he said, "Nothing but what? Xiao Wu, just say what you have to say."
"Hu Kai has a fierce personality and is merciless in his attacks. Although the disciple who fought against him lost, he was seriously injured." Xiao Wu replied with a frown.
Lian Bo stroked his beard and said: "Sure enough, whoever accepts a disciple will be accepted. Although my junior brother is withdrawn, the disciple he accepts also has such a character. Forget it, as long as he doesn't do anything to intentionally hurt the disciples, I don't care. "
Xiao Wu then said: "Master, Hu Kai is very aggressive in publishing books. Is it necessary to remind him to pay more attention?"
Lian Bo waved his hand and said: "When you are subduing monsters, if you encounter a vicious monster, will you ask him to be gentle?"
"No, how is that possible! Shi Ke cannot be killed! Even if I die, I will never bow my head." Xiao Wu said firmly.
Lian Bo nodded and said, "In that case, why do you ask Hu Kai to be gentler?"
"Disciple just thinks that caring about fellow disciples doesn't need to be so harsh." Xiao Wu defended.
Lian Bo waved his sleeves and said: "Xiao Wu, you don't have to worry so much. Although this person is somewhat contrary to the purpose of my Eastern sect, it does not prevent him from being an excellent practitioner. As long as he does not kill him, let him be. Well, we boys really should have a wild boy to treat them."
"Xiao Wu understands." Xiao Wu immediately retreated.
That night, Qianqiu lost sleep.
Although Xian Yang said it didn't matter, he was even happy to do so. But I can see that he still cares about being his opponent.
Qianqiu's guess was correct, and Yang Xian was also a little at a loss about this matter.
He thought that he was not taken seriously by his father at home, and his progress in cultivation was slow, which made him feel a little depressed. Now in the Eastern sect, where there are many masters, he is just an ordinary cultivator, and he has accumulated some depression in the past. There is also some increase.
This sect competition is a good opportunity to prove himself. If he competes with others, he won't feel anything wrong. No matter he wins or loses, he has no burden. But now his opponent in the third round is his best brother, and he feels a little uncomfortable.
The two of them spent the night like this with their own thoughts.
Early the next morning, Qianqiu and Yang Xian got up early at the same time.
"Old Yang!" Qianqiu took the initiative to call out when he saw the listless Yang Xian.
When Yang Xian heard Qianqiu's voice, he immediately cheered up and replied, "Good morning, Brother Qian!"
Qianqiu walked to Yang Xian and said: "Lao Yang, you and I don't need to hide it. I thought about it all night last night. No matter what the result is, I will go all out and respect the competition and you."
Yang Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Brother Qian, heroes think alike. I have also thought about it all night. Since I want to compete with you, I will go all out with the spirit beast."
"Work hard! Mr. Yang of Jiangtu Hall!"
"Upward! Yanyudang Qianqiu!"
