Chapter 71 The remaining crystal of sword gallbladder
Su Xiaoxian naturally heard the meaning of Wu Hao's words. Obviously he also realized that there must be something fishy about this grouping. Not to mention Lin Fenghuo and the two Qingyun Sect disciples, just Yi Xifeng and Geng Shu It is absolutely impossible to be grouped with yourself.
Yi Xifeng had taken over Liang Zi with him before, and Geng Shu was a descendant of the Geng family who was loyal to the court of Luo Yun Kingdom, and there was no possibility of him cooperating with him. He had no choice but to move out of the big mountain of Luo Yunzong and want to influence the members of the opposite group. As long as one person on the opposite side wavered, he would still have a chance.
Wu Li secretly glanced at the two Qingyun sect disciples beside him, as well as Zhong Rui, who looked a little ugly. She was just joining in the fun, and having the opportunity to enter the ancient secret realm was a sure profit for her. As for Wu Hao used Luo Yunzong as a threat, but she naturally didn't take it seriously.
On the other hand, Zhong Rui is a businessman by nature. Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages to maximize profits has always been his principle in life. In the past, this elite disciple of the Luo Yun Sect would have been the one he fawned over. However, this contest to recruit a bride was too important to him, so he could only stand there without any intention of giving up his position.
As for the two Qingyun Sect disciples, they naturally don't care about this. They received the order from the sect and it is a great honor to be able to enter here. They don't care much about these people from the Luo Yun Sect.
In fact, among the people present, the ones who were really hesitant were the three young men from other sects. Their own strength was not bad, but facing the behemoth of the Luo Yun Sect, they still felt a little guilty.
Just as everyone was secretly calculating in their hearts, Zhong Lingxi, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke.
"Young Master Wu is so powerful! He is indeed a young talent from Luo Yunzong. As you said just now, let alone a little girl like me, even a man who is upright has to kneel down to sink and sink! Sure enough, this young talent Even young talents must always rely on their strength, not just words.”
Zhong Lingxi's tone was light, as if he was saying something innocuous, but it was very harsh in the ears of the young people present. Liu Yuan, Yuan Chong, and Wang Chun, who were originally hesitant, turned red instantly. She was right. With the opponent's strong background, these people who had always regarded themselves as young talents did retreat.
Wu Hao turned to look at this beautiful girl with a cold face. He knew that the other person was trying to provoke the people around her with her words, but he couldn't deny anything and could only stare at her.
Zhong Lingxi ignored the other party's sinister gaze, but glanced at the other people present, especially the three disciples from other sects whose faces were red, and stayed for a moment.
The three men quickly lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Zhong Lingxi. However, this reaction in the girl's eyes made her laugh. Suddenly, laughter like silver bells spread in the sword tomb, and everyone unconsciously focused their attention on her.
She raised her hand to cover her red lips, and then whispered back after a moment: "Now that the grouping has been preliminarily decided, I will also choose my team, so as not to have long nights and dreams."
After saying that, before Wu Hao could intervene to retort, she pointed at Wu Li and said calmly: "Then I will act with this group! I like you better than the high-ranking Mr. Wu. Several people in the group.”
After saying that, her beautiful eyes swept over Liu Yuan, Yuan Chong, and Wang Chun, and the bodies of these three people were instantly shocked! There was even a hint of ecstasy on his face!
This scene naturally fell into the eyes of others, and Yi Xifeng thought to himself: If he could come up with such a beauty trap under such circumstances, it turns out that the beauty trap is effective against opponents at any level!
As for Wu Hao, who was the focus of the conflict, his face became even more gloomy. Originally, he was still 70% sure that one person from the opposite team would give up and give up his position, but now he was not even 10% sure.
He repeated it again with some reluctance. Seeing that the opposite team did not waver at all, Wu Hao could only give up the plan temporarily.
It makes sense. After all, the ultimate goal of young people who enter this martial arts competition is to marry Zhong Lingxi. Therefore, whichever group she is in in the second round, the members of that group will be more privileged. After all, it is also good to have one more combat power. She has a better chance of winning, and she is very likely to be her future wife, so the members of this group are naturally very united.
Seeing that the matter had been basically settled, Su Xiaoxian said to everyone in a deep voice:
"This competition is conducted in groups. It is not for everyone to fight with each other as a team, but to complete some tasks."
At this point, he paused and then explained: "This time the sword tomb is opened, we need to explore this secret realm, and the content of our competition is to obtain the sword gallbladder residual crystal."
Upon hearing this name, except for the disciples of the Qingyun Sect and Wu Hao, the others looked confused. Su Xiaoxian was not surprised when he saw this and continued to explain:
"This sword gall remnant crystal is a specialty of our Qingyun Sword Tomb. It looks like a colorless and transparent crystal. Of course, some of it also emits silvery white. Because it is shaped like a drop of water and looks like the gall of a strange beast, it is named after it. Sword courage!"
When Yi Xifeng heard this explanation, although he looked calm on the surface, there was a huge uproar in his heart!
He tried to calm down his emotions, and then asked seemingly casually: "Then where can I get this kind of sword gall crystal from the sword tomb?"
Senior Brother Su, known as the Sword Master, heard his question, nodded and replied: "This Sword Tomb is shaped like a huge underground palace. Our location is only on the periphery of this palace. If we go forward more than ten miles from here, we will find a The entrance to the huge tomb. So far, we can only enter the first three floors of the tomb of Sword Tomb, and at the entrance of the fourth floor, we will encounter a powerful barrier that makes it impossible to enter..."
Having said this, he paused, then looked at everyone present and said seriously: "There are all kinds of strange beasts in this earth tomb, and their strength is not bad. And as the number of layers of the earth tomb increases, the strength will gradually become stronger!"
"Most of the outermost alien beasts are at the level of Mang Realm. You move forward as a team. As long as you don't encounter a large-scale beast tide, there should be no threat. Once you enter the underground mausoleum and enter the first level of the underground palace, you will I found that the alien beasts there are obviously much stronger, they are already at the peak level of the Mang Realm, and a small number of the alien beasts are already comparable to the Chivalrous Realm!"
There was a trace of horror in everyone's eyes. You must know that strange beasts are very familiar to Jianghu warriors. Even many children of aristocratic families need to practice with these strange beasts since childhood to improve their fighting skills. But they are all strange beasts from the Mang Realm. This is the first time I have heard of them.
Geng Shu obviously thought of more, and he asked with a gloomy face: "So, on the second and third floors, wouldn't the strength of the alien beasts all reach the level of the chivalrous realm? In this case, wouldn't they all be kings of alien beasts? By?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar!
Su Xiaoxian sighed softly and said slowly: "I know what you want to say. Yes, if you reach the third floor, the strength of the alien beasts there will indeed be comparable to that of the ordinary knights, but they are not the kings of alien beasts."
