This time, the ranking was decided, with Jia Xun, a casual cultivator, as the leader, followed by Mr. Zheng, Wangxingu.
Although Hua Hanxing is extremely talented, she still has little qualifications. During the second round of elimination, she even showed a sense of delay and stagnation. After discussion with the elders, they placed her at seventh place, while Li Duang was not as good as her. , the ranking was a few lower, reaching eleven.
As for Baili Jiangzhao, although he performed brilliantly in the battle with Qiu Heng, his strength was still inferior to other sword cultivators. Even though he was praised by Miao Yue Sword Master, his initial ranking was at seventeen. By chance, he just missed the opportunity with Sixteen Jianzi.
In the battle for the title, if the initial ranking is not among the top 16, the Sword Sect will give them three opportunities to challenge upward. If they succeed, they will take the challenger's ranking, and the others will move up one place in sequence.
All three times resulted in failure, which means that this person's sword discussion at Tianjian Tai has come to an end.
If a monk falls out of the top sixteen due to postponement, he can also have three opportunities to challenge, and the rules are the same.
After all the monks' challenges are over, and everyone in the field has no objections to the current rankings and no willingness to challenge, the disciples from Zhaoyan, Taiyuan, and Yixuan sects who have obtained the seed quota will appear on the stage. Because they will directly enter the battle for the throne, Therefore, there will only be one chance to challenge. If you win, you will get the name of Sixteen Swordsmen. If you lose, you will leave.
Therefore, how to analyze your own strength and choose your opponent appropriately is also a key point in the battle for the title.
The elders of the Sword Sect have sharp eyesight, not to mention there are three elders of the Sword Mind Realm here. The initial rankings set by them can actually judge the true combat power of the twenty-five sword cultivators to the maximum extent.
It's just that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. There are always people who are lucky and want to use their own experience to decide the matter. Three people in a row came on stage to challenge, and they all chose the fourteenth one, a sword from a top-notch swordsmanship sect. The opponent had fought in the previous two battles. His performance in the competition was mediocre and nothing outstanding. On the contrary, the sword cultivator who was ranked sixteenth had an amazing momentum and seemed not to be trifled with.
I don't want to know the terror of the swords of that first-class swordsmanship until they actually fight.
Although his sword skills are not as refined as those at the top of the list, his swordsmanship is solid, and his moves point directly to the true meaning of the sword. He has reduced complexity to simplicity, so he looks very simple and unpretentious.
The elders of the Sword Sect understood this and placed him at the fourteenth position, higher than several disciples who were fighting with great momentum and great momentum.
After all three of them were defeated by his men, they shamelessly chose to challenge from the bottom sixteen. However, when they avoided the battle earlier, they were a little afraid of this man. They were afraid before the battle. Big taboo, no matter how brave you are to go on stage and invite a fight, you will not be able to escape defeat in the end!
The challenges started from the 25th place and went up in order. When it was the turn of the 17th place Baili Jiangzhao, none of the eight disciples below him succeeded. After most people failed to challenge the 16th place, they had three chances. However, I only used it once. I knew that I had no chance of winning against other people, so I had more intentions to ask for advice when I invited the battle again.
"I wonder who this Baili Jiangzhao will challenge?" Everyone whispered, looking at the disciples who were sitting quietly in the waiting area, and they couldn't help but have their own guesses.
The one who was challenged the most among them was undoubtedly Luo Feng, who happened to be ranked last. Fortunately, the sword debate at Tianjian Tai was a swordsmanship competition, which did not require the consumption of real energy, and he could also rely on the righteousness of the martial arts field in the audience while sitting quietly. The formation quickly regained its strength, allowing Luo Feng to continue accepting challenges from others without showing signs of fatigue.
"He is a person who has been praised by the Sword Master. This time he may directly challenge the fourteenth-placed Zhang Lingyue like the three people before!"
As soon as these words came out, some people immediately disagreed. After all, the lessons of the past were still lingering in everyone's minds. Choosing Zhang Lingyue was undoubtedly asking for death.
Sure enough, after Baili Jiang Zhao thought about it for a while, he still chose Luo Feng, who was ranked sixteenth, as his opponent.
After Gu Xie defeated Hou Qiu Heng, his Taoist mind became clear and his will was sublimated. Even the perfect "Tide Swordsmanship" also showed a tendency to introduce new ones. In the end, he defeated Luo Feng steadily and won the 16th place!
However, when he was invited to challenge Zhang Lingyue, he still managed to lose and ended up in the bottom sixteenth place.
At the same time, Luo Feng, who was deprived of his quota, failed to succeed.
At this point, the Sixteen Swordsmen began to take shape, and then the battle for ranking began.
Among them, the three disciples in the future are undoubtedly in greatest danger. After the three seeds of the Immortal Sect are admitted, there is a great possibility that they will be directly squeezed out of the position of Sixteen Swordsmen. Therefore, the top priority is to try their best to challenge. Avoid falling into the bottom three.
It is quite difficult for Baili Jiangzhao to squeeze into the quota of sixteen swordsmen. Everyone knows that his sword discussion trip at Tianjian Stage is probably going to end here.
Fortunately, both he and the accompanying elders of the Chaosheng Sword Sect who were fighting outside the light curtain were completely satisfied with today's results. For them, it was no longer a big deal to win the Sixteenth Sword Master with a compliment from Miao Yue Sword Master. That important.
Therefore, in almost every invitation to fight that followed, he chose to sit quietly and watch the battle, absorbing what he needed and making up for his shortcomings.
The two people in the fifteenth and fourteenth places must challenge upward to keep their reputation as the Sixteenth Swordsman.
"This son's swordsmanship can be said to have returned to his original nature. Even those who are ranked higher than him are still inferior to him in swordsmanship!" Yu Qingzhi smacked his tongue slightly. Although he did not show surprise, he was very impressed by Zhang Lingyue's swordsmanship. Still praises endlessly.
The elder beside him also nodded and responded: "It's a pity that the sword is not concise enough and its strength is also slightly flawed. It was not long after entering this realm, or..."
"No," Yu Qingzhi saw Zhang Lingyue's shortcomings at a glance, "He is relatively old among the Guihe monks. I remember that there was a figure like this in the last Heavenly Sword Tower. He just entered the Sword Gang at that time. Not long after reaching the realm, he lost the first battle of a hundred men. In this way, he has stayed in this realm for more than thirty years...it can be seen that his natural aptitude is inferior to others."
The memory of the true infant master is so amazing. Even though Zhang Lingyue was mediocre in the previous session, when he touched other faces, he still reminded Yu Qingzhi of the situation at that time.
"He knew that his qualifications were not as good as others, so he practiced swordsmanship hard and used his swordsmanship experience to feed back his swordsmanship practice. Therefore, it is not easy to achieve what he is today."
When they are used to seeing the most talented people, the elders can't help but lament that they are mediocre, but Zhang Lingyue is unwilling to settle for mediocrity.
And he was rewarded by God today, finally defeating the thirteenth sword cultivator and moving his ranking into a safer range.
At the same time, Li Duang, who was ranked eleventh, won two out of three battles and was promoted to ninth among the Sixteen Swordsmen. Hua Hanxing also relied on the power of swordsmanship inherited from the Yixuan Sword Sect to advance from seventh to the top three, but was defeated by Zheng Shaoyi.
She broke into the Jian Gang realm later than Li Duang. To be able to achieve such results showed that she had put in a lot of effort. The elders of the Jian Sect nodded secretly, feeling quite satisfied.
