Piaomiao Sect!
The momentum was huge and the scene was boiling.
Haoyue Peak is the venue for the inner sect's championship.
This much-anticipated inner sect ranking battle has not yet begun, but the surroundings of Haoyue Peak are already filled with people.
"Bah!"
A white crane with a wingspan of more than thirty meters hovered in the sky above Haoyue Peak. It pushed aside the clouds and mist and looked down.
The huge square is like a circular stone plate with a wide and majestic shore.
Eight square battle platforms are neatly arranged in the circular square.
Around the square are rows of audience seats.
At a glance, there are almost no empty seats.
"Everyone came so early! I came a little late and didn't even get a seat near the front."
"Yes! For the first time, the ranking battle has been changed to the 'Inner Gate Competition'. This competition must be quite fierce."
"Several deputy hall masters are here, hey, the third elder is here too."
"I thought the third elder wouldn't show up today!"
"This shows that the top leaders of the sect attach great importance to this 'inner sect winning the championship'."
"..."
As time went by, the auditorium around Haoyue Peak became increasingly full.
Many people even sat directly on the steps of the aisle.
Of course, the only place that was not crowded was where the elders and palace masters were sitting.
Mainly led by the third elder and several deputy hall masters, the auras exuded by the figures in the main stand are quite powerful.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the auditorium on a certain side.
"Senior Brother Qin Chong has entered the stage. I wish Senior Brother Qin Chong to reach the top!"
"Senior Brother Qin Chong, the number one position in the inner sect belongs to you."
"..."
On the other side, Yuan Lixue's appearance also caused quite a stir.
"Yuan Lixue is the strongest."
"Sister Yuan Lixue, you will definitely win. Sooner or later, the position of true disciple will be yours."
"..."
Then, the appearance of other top ten strongest inner disciples caused a change in the atmosphere on the field.
Over at the Nirvana Hall, Xiao Nuo, Lou Qing and their group also arrived at Haoyue Peak.
Accompanying them are Lanmeng, Changqing, Guanxiang, and Yanying.
"Xiao Nuo, when did you come back?"
A figure in red came to the side of the team in Nirvana Hall, it was Luo Ning.
"Yingying is here too!" Luo Ning waved his palms to say hello to Yanying.
Yanying smiled lightly and waved her little hands.
"Just the day before yesterday!" Xiao Nuo replied.
"I really envy you! You can participate in the 'Inner Sect Championship' in your first year, and you are also a newcomer. Why is there such a big gap!"
Luo Ning said with envy and a little distress.
Xiao Nuo smiled: "Just wait until next time."
Luo Ning curled his lips: "I also hope that I will be qualified to compete next time."
There is only one condition for participating in the "Inner Sect Competition", and that is to become a "First Grade Disciple".
However, there are hundreds of thousands of Piaomiao Sect disciples, but the number of first-grade disciples is only two to three thousand.
Under normal circumstances, it would take at least several years to advance from an outer disciple to a first-grade disciple.
There are too few people like Xiao Nuo who have achieved first-level status within half a year of starting.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly, loud salutes exploded in the sky above Haoyue Peak.
The atmosphere on the field was directly pushed to the highest climax.
"Bah!"
A huge green-scaled eagle flew through the sky, letting out a roar that could swallow up the whole world.
Everyone looked towards the main stand and saw a middle-aged elder about forty years old walking out slowly with two followers.
"My name is Tang Xing, and I am the referee for this inner-door championship. Of course, it doesn't matter whether I am the referee or not. I just stand up and explain the rules of the competition. After that, I will go down..."
As soon as Elder Tang Xing opened his mouth, people could feel his humor.
The other party made a strong voice and raised his hand to point to the square ahead.
"Rule 1, the first round of the competition will determine the top eight! Many people are going to ask, haven't they always been the 'Top Ten Strongest Inner Disciples'? Why the top eight? Where have the other two people gone?"
Tang Xing asked and answered his own question. He turned around and pointed at the third elder and said, "This question is not my fault. It is the rule set by the third elder and the others. I am a person who works for the Piaomiao Sect, so I don't dare to ask."
As soon as these words came out, the square couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The third elder and several deputy hall masters looked at each other and shook their heads.
Tang Xing himself also laughed.
He waved his hand: "It's just a joke, don't take it seriously. The reason why the top eight were determined is because two people advanced directly. These two people are also recognized as the strongest and most popular people on the field. They are , the genius of Guixu Palace, Qin Chong; and the evildoer of Yuanlong Palace, Yuan Lixue..."
There was an uproar on Haoyue Peak.
Everyone couldn't help but look in amazement.
"Qin Chong and Yuan Lixue were promoted directly?"
"Normally, after Liang Xingchen became a true disciple, Qin Chong and Yuan Lixue were the well-deserved leaders of the first-class disciples."
"Also, Qin Chong and Yuan Lixue are both nominated as 'True Disciples' this year. Anyone who meets them must kneel down."
"What about Liang Xingchen? Why didn't you see him coming to watch the battle?"
"Liang Xingchen went to the 'Piaomiao Ancestral Land'."
"Huh, Piao Miao Ancestral Land? Tsk, tsk, tsk, I dare say that half of the reason why so many people are trying to become true disciples is because they are going to the 'Piao Miao Ancestral Land'."
"Who says it isn't?"
"..."
Tang Xing waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
"Rule 2: In front of you, there are eight battle platforms. They can be opened at the same time later. Each platform will compete in pairs. The eight people standing on it will be the top eight who advance to the first round."
I have to say that this rule is quite simple.
Not only direct, but also brutal.
But at the same time, some people also raised questions: "Elder Tang Xing, is it too unfair if the defenders are constantly being consumed by wheel battles?"
"Yes, Elder Tang Xing, if the person who stands on top in the end is the final winner, wouldn't it be better to go on stage as late as possible? And those who get on stage early are at a huge disadvantage."
"..."
The rules are simple, but there are huge loopholes.
Even if the defender keeps winning, if he loses a game at the last minute, all his previous efforts will be wasted.
Tang Xing smiled and said, "I haven't finished speaking yet, so don't worry!"
Everyone stopped discussing immediately.
Tang Xing continued: "Rule 3, if someone can take the lead in achieving 'ten consecutive victories', he will directly advance to the quarterfinals!"
Everyone suddenly realized.
It turns out there is such an option.
In other words, there are two ways to advance to the quarterfinals:
Be the last one standing on stage!
Or, ten consecutive victories!
But no matter which method is used, it is extremely difficult. If you are not careful, you will be squeezed out.
"It's so difficult!" Luo Ning, who was in the Nirvana Palace team, shook his head: "First-grade disciples are all the top geniuses of the sect. It is not easy to win ten games in a row."
Lan Meng, Guan Xiang, Yanying and the others couldn't help but look at Xiao Nuo and Lou Qing with some concern.
In this inner sect competition, only Xiao Nuo and Lou Qing from Nirvana Hall participated.
This cruel rule makes people shake their heads after hearing it.
"Do you still have any questions?" Tang Xing asked.
No one spoke up.
Tang Xing nodded. He put away his relaxed smile and his eyes became serious.
"In that case, I officially announce: Piao Miao Sect's new round of 'inner sect's championship' begins!"
"Geniuses, please... come on stage and join the game!"
"..."
Suddenly, the atmosphere on Haoyue Peak exploded.
One after another, the prodigies who could no longer restrain their fighting spirit rushed to the center of the square. In the blink of an eye, two figures with sharp edges appeared on each of the eight battle platforms...
