The competition between the second and third groups was indeed a little dull compared to the first and fifth groups. This is not to say that their strength is lacking, but that the rules and environment of this competition prevent them from fully displaying their strength.
One of the men in the second group was a slightly fat man, and his opponent was a tall woman in the third group. From the beginning, the man tried his best, waving his hands, and violently attacked the woman. The woman used softness to overcome strength, dodging lightly like a snake, quickly weaving in and out of the man's attacks, and at the same time responded with precise counterattacks. Although the scene was a bit chaotic, their movements were orderly and they were obviously people who were well versed in the principles of martial arts.
Both groups were very competitive. As time passed by, the competition had been going on for a long time. In the end, the first two people in the third group fell off the ring, and the third group was announced to be eliminated.
"The second group wins!" Qingyun raised the red flag to the victorious group.
"It seems that this year's competition is particularly cruel." Jiuling disciples whispered to each other, "This is much more exciting than previous years."
There was a huge blackboard hanging on the wall near the arena, and Qingyun listed the order and results of the competition in an orderly manner.
1vs5, 5 wins
2vs3, 2 wins
Next is the order of competition
5vs4
3vs4
2vs1
First of all, the first test of the second round was still between the fifth and fourth groups where Shangguan Jing was.
The members of the fourth group are not as strong as the members of the first group, but they also have considerable strength. When they competed with Shangguan Jing's fifth group, the scene was very tense.
After the game started, Baihu took the lead and launched a quick attack, while his opponent responded calmly. While his attacks are swift and powerful, his opponents dodge and counterattack even faster. Every movement was accurate, showing his extraordinary skills.
This left Bai Hu at a loss. He thought he was strong enough to defeat any opponent, but now he found that he knew nothing about his opponent's tactics. He felt that his confidence was destroyed because he had tried his best and failed to catch their flaws. He had never seen such an opponent.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while.
"Master, my opponent this time is a bit tricky. I always feel like something is wrong."
Although Bai Hu's strength is not ranked high in the fairy world, it is more than enough to deal with this mere mortal.
"Don't panic, retain your strength, and try their skills again."
After that, he attacked them again.
As everyone knows, when they were in Youshan, the leader of the fourth group met a man in black here, and that man in black was the one who attacked Shangguan Jing and his party.
"Who are you?" the member of the fourth group asked warily of this uninvited guest. They quickly took up defensive positions and prepared to fight.
But the man in black just stared at them with sharp eyes and a sneer on his lips: "I can help you enter Jiuling smoothly, but you have to complete one thing for me."
Hearing his answer, the fourth group was slightly moved, and they all looked at each other, "What's going on?"
"I will help you get out of the mountain later. During the second round of competition, I will manipulate the wooden box where you drew lots and let you compete with the fifth group."
The fourth group obviously had no idea about the strength of the fifth group and was confused, "What if we can't beat them?"
Then purple smoke came out of the palm of the man in black. He raised his hand slightly, and a powerful force attacked the members of the fourth group. They resisted with their backhands, and the purple smoke entered their bodies smoothly, feeling that their bodies were absorbing this powerful power.
The members of the fourth group widened their eyes in horror. This was something they had never felt before.
"What you have to do is beat the fifth group, especially the two better men."
"Yes, thank you for your help."
In the blink of an eye, the man in black disappeared in front of them. At that moment, the Poyun Pearl emitted a dazzling light in their arms, illuminating the surroundings.
By the time the fourth group reacted, they had walked out of Youshan and returned to Jiuling.
"It's amazing. It took no effort at all."
"Yeah yeah."
The members of the fourth group were ecstatic. They high-fived each other and celebrated, thankful that they could successfully walk out of the mountain. They looked up to the sky, feeling that their strength had greatly increased, and they were confident to face the next competition.
After more than ten minutes of taking action again, Yi He finally noticed something unusual.
"I feel a Qigong that is not common to ordinary people from each of their moves, like the power of the man in black we met in Youshan."
"What?" Bai Hu and Shangguan Jing exclaimed, "Why is this damn man in black still lingering?"
"Master, what should we do next?"
