The preparation time of each sect was not long. In just a quarter of an hour, the participating disciples of the first two sects to fight were already standing on the ring.
There are nine arenas in total, so eighteen people compete at the same time. This can not only save time greatly, but also avoid to a certain extent someone from being injured in the previous competition, and the disciples behind him deliberately retaliating with heavy blows.
But it was only the first game, and it was already full of gimmicks, because the one who drew number 1 was the Thorn Slayer, which ranked thirty-fourth last time. There were only four golden elixirs in the sect, and the highest was only the third level of golden elixir. , and the number 36 was drawn to fight against the Alchemy Cauldron Sect, which ranked second last time, with two Nascent Soul cultivators and dozens of Golden Alchemists.
As the game began, the eighteen peak Qi-refining monks in the arena began to condense their spells.
If you just look at the rankings of the sects in the battle between the fourth from last and the second from last, there seems to be no suspense. However, there were bursts of applause from the audience, but it was because the disciples of the Thorn-Severing Sect generally had the upper hand!
The Thorn Killing Sect has metallic spiritual roots. Although the overall strength of the sect is weak, due to the lack of resources, cultivation is very difficult, so the disciples in the sect dare to rush and fight with great momentum when fighting against others.
On the other hand, in the Alchemy Cauldron Sect, because the disciples never lacked elixirs in their cultivation, their realm was somewhat illusory. Seven of the nine people were suppressed and beaten.
There is not much difference in the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining. Naturally, if the momentum is taken away, they are no match. In less than a stick of incense, four disciples of the Danding Sect have already been defeated. And every time the Thorn-Shantering Sect wins, the scene will be full of excitement. There was a cheer.
Most of the cheering people were the disciples of the lower-ranked sects. At this time, the disciples of the Thorn Sect had undoubtedly become their spiritual sustenance. Victories one after another continued to prove to everyone that although their sect was weak, it was still strong. Every disciple should not be underestimated!
The game ended soon. As the second sect in terms of overall strength, the Danding Sect certainly had its reputation. It might have underestimated the enemy at first, but after losing four games in a row, it finally came to its senses. It was so easy to comeback, but in the end it took two more wins to end all the games. The final score was 6:3 for Jizong.
Although they were only ahead by three points, which was not a big advantage, it was enough to make them cheer. A win was a win. They had never thought that they could beat the second-ranked Danding Sect in the battle between Qi Refining Stage disciples.
The Danding Sect also showed a great sect style. Although it failed, it was still graceful. They saluted each other and paid tribute to their opponents. The leader of the Danding Sect just smiled and chatted with several elders around him. It seemed that the first defeat did not matter at all. Take it to heart.
At the beginning of the game, a dark horse appeared, which made everyone feast their eyes, and the atmosphere at the scene was extremely intense.
Zhang Xiaosheng sighed in his heart. The rules of the competition were indeed fair and gave hope to the lower-ranked sects. However, the more fair they were, the less anyone in the Bihai Chaosheng Sect would doubt the Five Elements Sect's actions.
It's really a good method, all linked together. I really don't know what the Five Elements Sect can make the Bihai Chaosheng Sect care about. They don't dare to make bold moves, and they don't leave any room for secretly.
The second game started soon. The two sects were similar in strength. They were both ranked in the 20s last time. But just looking at the game scene, it seemed to be more exciting than the one just now.
The ranking of sects is mainly determined by high-end combat power. The sects ranked lower are due to lack of resources, weak qualifications and small number of disciples, so it is difficult to have golden elixir monks. However, the disadvantages brought by weak qualifications are in Qi Refining Nine. The level is not very obvious yet, and it is not difficult to gather nine outstanding disciples no matter how small the number is.
Sure enough, in the second game, all nine arenas were closely fought. The winner was basically decided after the spiritual energy was exhausted. The final score was 5:4, and the one with a slight advantage turned out to be the lower ranked sect. .
There was another commotion off the court. Although the two teams were similar in strength, after all, the one at the bottom of the rankings won the one at the top. It would not be wrong to say that the weak defeated the strong.
The third game...
The fourth game...
…
More than an hour later, it was time for the battle between Qingyang Sect and Five Elements Sect.
Except for the Red Blood Sect, which scored nine points in the seventh game, the scores of other sects were not much different. Just looking at the peak Qi Refining disciples, the gap between the sects was indeed not big. It's just that the Scarlet Blood Sect's skills allow disciples to fuse blood into the spells, increasing their power by 30%. Although it won't last long, it's more than enough to cope with the battles during the Qi refining period.
At this time, the five disciples of the Five Elements Sect all went up to the arena, but there were still four empty arenas, and everyone was puzzled.
"There are not enough members in the Five Elements Sect, so we will give up four games." Zhang Xiaosheng's voice sounded throughout the audience.
There was an uproar in the stadium, and there were even a lot of snickers, but Zhang Xiaosheng didn't care. Xu Ze'an, who was in charge of hosting the game, asked:
"Zongzhu Liu is too careless. This is not a matter of giving up four games, but twelve games."
Only then did everyone realize that the number of people in the Five Elements Sect this round was not enough, so naturally there would not be enough in the next two rounds. Moreover, it was also a recognized fact that the disciples of the Five Elements Sect during the Qi Refining Period were weak. Now many sects had become more active, and they I hope I can draw the Five Elements Sect in the next round.
Zhang Xiaosheng looked helpless and said:
"Elder Xu, there are only five disciples of the Five Elements Sect, and the ninth level of Qi Refining is only comparable to five. Others can't win if they bring us, so there are only five people participating in the battle."
"Okay." Xu Ze'an nodded and said, "That's it, the game begins."
The four disciples of Qingyang Sect just went on stage and went through the motions and won four points.
Yang Tiannan did not deliberately send the four weakest people in the sect to the arena where there were no Five Elements Sect disciples, but randomly entered the arena, which showed his demeanor.
But the strongest one naturally stayed, otherwise it would be too deliberate.
Zhang Xiaosheng probed a little and felt that the auras of two of the four people who left Qingyang Sect were stronger than those of the two who stayed. After thinking for a while, he understood. He turned his eyes to Yang Tiannan and saw that he was also looking at him. The two of them They looked at each other and smiled, then both looked towards the ring.
Feng Yunqing saw it on the stage, and his face sank slightly.
A fierce fight has begun on the field. The five disciples of the Five Elements Sect did not fall into a disadvantage as soon as everyone imagined. Instead, they fought well and were able to attack and defend with ease. After all, Ning Xuan's months of training were not in vain. of.
On the other hand, the five disciples of the Qingyang Sect, their spiritual root compatibility is close to 80% of the single spiritual root, and the strongest person has also reached the earth spiritual root, but he cannot gain an advantage in the same spell collision, but often Will be slightly outmatched.
The Qingyang Sect masters wood and fire, while the disciples of the Five Elements Sect use restraint attributes based on the opponent's spiritual root attributes, which makes everyone wonder. This must be a coincidence.
As we all know, the Five Elements Sect has all five spiritual roots, but if you want to have a certain degree of combat effectiveness, one of the attributes must be extremely high, and the lower the other four attributes, the better. Otherwise, the power of spells condensed under the same realm will be greatly reduced. It's just that it seems that the five disciples of Qingyang Sect are all restrained by their opponents, and the strongest disciple is only even.
Feng Yunqing looked at the situation on the field and felt very strange in his heart. Is it really a coincidence?
The opponent of the Five Elements Sect in the first round is the Qingyang Sect. This was a temporary decision made by him. Anyway, it is the same among the sects which one comes first. Zhang Xiaosheng cannot know, and the five people from the Qingyang Sect who appear on the field seem to be random. , are not the five strongest among them, so why are they all restrained by the attributes of the disciples of the Five Elements Sect.
While everyone was wondering, the balance of victory and defeat on the scene had gradually tilted. In fact, none of the five disciples of the Five Elements Sect had reached the earth spirit root, and the total was only more than 70%. However, under the transformation effect of the "Five Elements Divine Art", they all It is equivalent to more than 70% of the single spiritual root, coupled with attribute restraint, and has been trained by Ning Xuan for several months. He has rich combat experience and can naturally suppress his opponent easily.
After all, the attributes are restrained. When the spiritual root compatibility is not much different, Qingyang Sect disciples will have to consume more mana if they want to offset the Five Elements Sect disciples' spells, and the Five Elements Sect disciples have not yet used the second spell. With this attribute, the four Qingyang Sect disciples are gradually unable to support it.
Only the strongest disciple, after becoming familiar with his opponent's routines, changed the spell-casting rhythm many times and gradually took the initiative in the fight.
The total spiritual energy reserves of the disciples at the ninth level of Qi Refining were not very large. In just one stick of incense, four Qingyang Sect disciples had already failed, and the last battle had already reached its most intense stage.
The strongest disciple of the Qingyang Sect in the Qi refining period is indeed a genius of the Earth Spirit Root. After taking the initiative, he did not rush to attack. He used his body skills as much as possible to resolve the opponent's attacks and save his spiritual energy. The disciples of the Five Elements Sect saw other brothers. They had already won, but they were a little anxious and gradually lost their skills. The Qingyang Sect disciples found an opportunity to break through the defense in one fell swoop.
This Qingyang Sect disciple is of the fire attribute. The moment the fireball approached, the Five Elements Sect disciple knew that he had failed, but he did not dare to get hurt. After all, there were only five members of the Five Elements Sect. If he was injured and unable to participate in the battle, then he would not be able to participate in the battle. I have to give up one more game.
He converted all the remaining spiritual energy into earth attributes and condensed it into an earth shield on his chest, but the power of the fireball seemed much smaller the moment it hit him. The disciple of the Five Elements Sect was knocked backwards by the impact, but he was not injured at all. The disciple of the Qingyang Sect took a few steps forward and pulled him up.
"I surrender." The disciple of the Five Elements Sect calmly shouted to the referee. After Xu Ze'an announced the end of the game, he and the disciple of the Qingyang Sect left the ring, and the two were still talking and laughing.
"Qingyang Sect VS Five Elements Sect, 5:4, Qingyang Sect wins."
Although the Qingyang Sect won, Xu Ze'an still felt a little unhappy. It seemed that the sect's goal had not been achieved. When he quietly looked at Feng Yunqing, he found that the sect seemed to be wandering.
Feng Yunqing naturally knew the result of the game, but he could no longer care about it at this time, because he discovered that just when the fireball of the Qingyang Sect disciple was about to hit the Five Elements Sect disciple, the aura released by the Five Elements Sect disciple suddenly changed from the water attribute to Earth attribute.
Although it was only for a moment, and it was blocked by the fireball, many people could not see it clearly, but Feng Yunqing still sensed it, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought at this time.
