The banker was happy, and the monks who bet on Lanyan Academy were also happy.
Many people identified Lanyan Academy as a dark horse and followed suit.
In the next few days, the preliminary rounds continued as usual.
The performance of the Lanyan Academy disciples shocked everyone, and they actually maintained a complete victory record in the preliminary round.
Among them, Lanyan Academy was naturally lucky, as it did not encounter any upper seven tribes in the preliminary round.
The power of the disciples of Kelan Yan Academy has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In particular, the understanding and mastery of the disciples of Lanyan Academy far exceeds that of many disciples of local forces in the God Realm. This fact makes many forces in the God Realm unwilling to believe it, but they have to admit that this is a fact.
Because under the same cultivation conditions, the performance of the disciples of Lanyan Academy can be called a crushing level, defeating their opponents with overwhelming force.
Even when they were at a disadvantage in cultivation, the disciples of Lanyan Academy never gave up. Through various tactics and difficult operations, they managed to win the impossible battle.
All these factors have allowed Lanyan Academy to firmly claim the title of dark horse in this competition of all races.
For a time, Lanyan Academy also became a favorite in the gambling game, and the odds were gradually not as high as before.
All this was also within Mu Yuyan's expectations.
The first time she went to the casino in person was to see the market conditions. Later, in every game at Lanyan Academy, she gave the spirit stones to Li Xiong to place bets in secret.
After the previous two games, the 20,000 top-grade spirit stones she handed over to Li Xiong had an odds of close to 1 to 1,000 at the beginning. After two games, the top-grade spirit stones in Li Xiong's hand had become more than 1,000. Ten thousand.
This is after the casino takes its cut.
For the subsequent bets, Mu Yuyan left it to Li Xiong. They still bet 10,000 top-quality spiritual stones each time, and they still bet that Lanyan Academy would win.
Nowadays, the odds of betting on Lanyan Academy are not as high as before, but they are not low either.
With the strength of the Lanyan Academy disciples and the odds of more than double, Lingshi still won a lot.
"I didn't expect that one day I would be able to complete the errands of the Household Department!"
"With these spiritual stones, Dajing will not have to worry about finances for its development within a hundred years."
"If the Ten Thousand Tribes Competition can achieve good results and establish a sect in the God Realm, these spirit stones will be enough to be used as start-up funds, and the Snow Clan..."
In the Zongmen cave, Mu Yuyan was counting the spirit stones and calculating in her heart, with a confident smile on her face.
On the side, Gu Lan shook his head and smiled when he saw his wife's appearance, and opened an official introduction to the knockout competition sent by the Ten Thousand Races Competition.
After the preliminary rounds in the past few days, basically any force with a winning rate of more than 50% can enter the knockout rounds with points.
Lanyan Academy won the preliminary round, so it would naturally be the first to enter the knockout round and strive for a spot in the finals.
"Tower of Trials, beasts, fire, thunder, wind, ghosts..."
"It seems that in order to win this competition among all races, the upper seven races now have no shame."
Gu Lan looked at the introduction of the knockout competition with a look of ridicule on his face.
The location of this knockout competition is within the five trial towers. The terrain is all adapted to the techniques of the five races in the God Realm. As for whether other forces can adapt, it is none of their business.
Since the Light Clan ranked first in the last Ten Thousand Races Competition, this time the Ten Thousand Races Competition can directly enter the finals. There is no Light Clan participating, so there is no trial tower for the Light Clan.
In the past, the Snow Clan also had a trial tower like this, which was a place specially used to train new Snow Clan members.
However, with the destruction of the Snow Clan, any trial tower belonging to the Snow Clan has also disappeared in the long river of history.
After Gu Lan read the rules of the knockout competition, he asked Li Xiong to summon all the disciples of Lanyan Academy.
"The five trial towers belong to five of the seven clans in the God Realm. If you enter a trial tower that matches your own attributes, you will definitely be able to take advantage of all the advantages including terrain."
"Under such circumstances, it will be very difficult for the forces in the human world or other local forces in the upper world and the divine world to defeat the seven upper clans."
"But fortunately, the rules of the knockout round are different this time. The five trial towers are divided into five rankings. Each trial tower has a top-ranked disciple who can get the highest talent points."
He waved his hand to move a projection stone, projecting the rules of this knockout match.
While waiting for his disciples to check the rules, he was also explaining them.
Since Lanyan Academy has been preparing for the Ten Thousand Races Competition for so long this time, it must not give up easily.
"Under this mode, not only will your personal strength be tested, but your ability to cooperate with each other will also be tested."
"Lanyan Academy will arrange a group training every quarter. I believe you all have familiar friends. I will not help you arrange the personnel distribution for this knockout round. It is up to you to decide."
"I'll give you one stick of incense to discuss, and tell me the result of your discussion after one stick of incense."
As soon as Gu Lan finished speaking, the disciples of Lanyan Academy started discussing using secret techniques of sound transmission.
They have become accustomed to using secret techniques to communicate with each other through sound transmission, but they are not used to it when speaking normally.
In this knockout round, the five trial towers will be divided into five teams.
The number of people in each pair is variable, but it cannot vary too much.
Among the group of people, the most popular ones now are naturally the disciples who have practiced the art of heaven. Several people, including Mo Li, are now surrounded by other fellow disciples.
Looking at the wolf-like eyes of his former classmates, Li Qiye felt a little scared and was ready to run away in Dunjia at any time.
"Brothers, although this is a team battle, there is still only one first place."
"So this time, we must distribute the points well before the game to avoid unnecessary trouble among us later."
During the discussion, someone put forward an opinion, which was immediately unanimously recognized by everyone.
Especially a few people who haven't dealt with each other very much in the past. Even if they can't play against each other this time, they still want to compare their own points through the competition.
"I'm talking about you two, Chen Fan and Xiao Yan. You two must never be on the same team."
"Xiao Yan, you go to the Tower of Fire, Chen Fan, you go to the Tower of Ghosts..."
While everyone was having a heated discussion, Li Qiye took the initiative to stand up and began to assign teams to everyone.
With this master tactician around, everyone was clearly arranged.
"Comrades, this knockout round is the home court of those guys from the God Realm, and we don't have an advantage."
"Therefore we need to unite more and strive to win this knockout round."
"I know the dean never said he wanted us to take first place, but I also know he has expectations for us!"
After detaching the team, Li Qiye was still boosting morale.
