"Stop!" The long-haired old man in purple clothes suddenly raised his right hand and shouted, causing the disciples of Tianyuan Sect to stop instantly.

"All participating disciples, take a day's rest in the building square today. Tomorrow we will start drawing lots into groups. Once the drawing is completed, the competition will begin."

As soon as Mu Fan stopped, he saw a tall, thin old man with a white beard from Wanjian Sect flying into the air and transmitting a message to the surroundings.

"Okay, our Tianyuan Sect will also have a good rest today."

As soon as the long-haired old man in purple finished speaking, he threw out a small house less than six feet high from his hand. The small house suddenly became larger. The larger house looked magnificent and extremely luxurious.

Mu Fan was dumbfounded when he saw the old man Ziyang performing a magic trick. This was too special. He brought a small villa with him.

No, it can no longer be described as a small villa. This golden palace looks like it can accommodate at least a thousand people. It is more than enough for all the disciples of Tianyuan Sect to live in it.

Mu Fan is like a country bumpkin who just entered the city. He walked into the golden palace and looked around. This does not conform to physics. While watching, Mu Fan was amazed. Mu Fan's physics scores were a mess when he was in junior high school, but this does not hinder his performance. He was making irresponsible remarks at this time.

Soon Mu Fan was assigned to the same room as a disciple who was in the middle stage of the Qi Training Realm. This disciple was a bit timid. His head was always lowered and he didn't dare to look at other people's eyes. He seemed to be a bit introverted. Mu Fan wanted to say hello to others at first, but he gave up the idea when he saw that others ignored him.

One night in the building square soon passed like this...

Mu Fan left the room early the next day, and today he was going to draw lots for the group competition. Because there were so many participating disciples, one realm was divided into several groups. There were five groups in the Qi Lianning realm, and there were also five groups in the Foundation Building realm. There are three groups, the Golden Core Realm is slightly smaller, and they are divided into three groups.

Mu Fan was assigned to Group C, which was the third group in the Qi Training Realm. After learning about his group, Mu Fan started to look at the groups of Second Senior Sister and Mu Lin, and saw that Second Senior Sister on the list was actually the same as Mu Lin. The girl in black was assigned to the same group, Group A, and the third senior brother was assigned to Group B.

There are almost more than sixty contestants in each group. Regardless of whether you are in the early, middle or late stages, you are all in the same group. This is extremely unfair to those practitioners who have just been promoted to a new level. But this is the case for this competition, no matter you No matter what realm, as long as you achieve results in this realm.

Mu Fan is glad that he was promoted to the late stage some time ago. He is not afraid even if he fights against opponents in the late stage of Qi Training Realm. It would be better if he meets opponents in the early or middle stage of Qi Training Realm. Mu Fan does not have the idea that stronger opponents are better at this time. The idea is that he only needs to obtain the top three in Qi training realm this time.

After the grouping ended in the morning, preparations for the competition began in the afternoon.

In the building square...

A group of old men gathered together, standing in the four directions of east, west, north and south. Soon, a bright light came out from their palms, and three competition stages were built.

Some disciples were not surprised, while others were greatly surprised. Mu Fan was one of them. What he was thinking at this time...

I don’t know how much I would earn if I worked as a contractor outside Jiuxiao Island for a year...

Mu Fan, Situ Yan, Meng Yiran, Xian Lanshuang, Che Ying, Liu Yan... Looking at the dense row of text in Group C, Mu Fan finally figured out the names of the opponents he would face in the next knockout round.

The knockout round is the first round of competition in this sect competition. All the disciples of each group stand on the competition stage. After the three sticks of incense time, only the eight disciples who are still on the stage are taken. If there are less than eight disciples left, take whatever number is left.

"Dong"..."Dong"..."Dong"

With the three bells ringing from the referee's bench, the Death Desert Sect competition officially began.

In the open space near the three competition venues in the building square, some people who did not participate in the competition also built high platforms. In addition to the members of the three major sects who did not participate in the competition, many second-rate and third-rate sects from Jiuxiao Island came to watch the competition.

The entire square became extremely lively, and the masters of the Zhenxing Sect built protective formations all around the square. The wind and sand could not blow the competition stage at all. In order to allow the players to fully exert their strength, the three major sects This time can be regarded as a big investment.

Soon the competition of Group A, Group B, Group C of the Qi Training Realm officially started. Mu Fan came to the stage guided by an elder of Wanjian Sect.

There were sixty-five people on the entire competition stage! Fortunately, the arena is very spacious, and even if sixty-five people can fit in it, it won't seem too small for them to use their skills.

Mu Fan touched another pill in his waist pocket. It was a violent pill. Last time, Mu Fan had taken it out early and prepared it. This was Mu Fan's trump card. This time the competition did not clearly state that the pill could not be used. Medicine, not to mention the Violent Qi Pill is something that no one on Jiuxiao Island has ever seen before.

"The competition has officially begun!" A loud voice echoed across this huge battlefield.

At this time, two old men in black came to the top of the competition stage. They were the referees. As soon as Mu Fan heard the referee's order, the entire competition stage became chaotic.

Off stage...

The sound of war drums resounded, making people excited and impassioned.

Just when Mu Fan was in a daze, a man in black rushed towards him. This man in black was almost the same age as his senior brother, and he was also in the late stage of Qi training.

When Mu Fan saw his opponent coming to attack him, he raised his hand to fight back and hit the man in black on the head with a straight punch.

The man in black didn't expect that this seemingly stupid target was actually in the late stage of Qi training. He blamed himself for choosing the wrong target, and then left without entangled with Mu Fan.

Mu Fan's tactics are not to take the initiative to attack. If it's one-on-one, he will attack. If it's a siege, he will run away. His tactics are pretty good, because he is in the late stage of Qi training, and there are few people who are full. The disciples wanted to fight him until death.

Just when Mu Fan was feeling proud of his tactics, five people came over, all of whom were in the late stage of Qi training.

Seeing so many enemies surrounding him, Mu Fan said angrily: "Shameless!" The figure flashed and retreated.

Several disciples of the Formation Star Sect continued to kill each other. They belonged to a group. Seeing this Tianyuan Sect disciple who was alone, they made up their mind to deal with this lone disciple first. Although Mu Fan was in the late stage of Qi training, so did a few of them. In the later stage of Qi training, with the help of formations, I am not afraid at all.

When Mu Fan saw the opponents who were chasing him relentlessly, he felt angry and decided to show off to these guys. First, it flew behind a fat disciple like a ghost, and then stuck it behind the fat disciple. This was the sticky bomb prepared by Mu Fan.

Seeing that Mu Fan actually dared to take the initiative to attack, several disciples of the Formation Star Sect suddenly linked their hands together and started to spin like a crazy meat grinder, sweeping towards Mu Fan on the battlefield.

"It's actually the special move of the Five Little Demons of the Formation Stars, the Storm Fantasy Dance Kill!" Seeing the disciples fighting on the battlefield, everyone watching the battle couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

At this time, Mu Qianyu and Mu Lin were a little worried about Mu Fan. If he was caught by this move, Mu Fan would end up with his hands and feet cut off even if he didn't die.

But before the meat grinder completely surrounded Mu Fan, it made a loud bang.

All the five little demons of the Formation Star were seriously injured by the explosion. The fat disciple suffered the worst. His whole back was covered in blood. It was too horrible to look at.

Everyone in the audience was also shocked by the scene in front of them. Five people surrounded and killed one person, but one person was actually injured. They screamed and cheered even more crazily.

The girl in black was also shocked by Mu Fan's performance: "Humph, this idiot has to worry about me for him." At this time, Luo Xian'er, who was watching the battle in the audience, saw that Mu Fan was safe and sound, and she didn't know why she felt sorry for him. Mu Fan was so happy that she couldn't even explain the feeling.

After Mu Fan saw the sticky bomb explode, an evil smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Huh, let's compete with the master. Does the master's homemade sticky bomb feel good?"

When Mu Fan saw that the five people were injured, he would not show mercy and kicked them off the stage with a few kicks.

Others on the stage saw Mu Fan fight back against him one after another, and they all stayed away from Mu Fan, unwilling to become his enemy. Mu Fan waited on the stage for a long time and saw no one continued to trouble him, so he pretended to be inscrutable and stopped taking action.

"This little guy is pretty good, he must be a disciple of Tianyuan Sect." At this time, many referees on the referee's bench discussed while watching the battle.

"Hey, Old Ghost Jian, all the disciples of our Tianyuan Sect are all good!" At this time, the long-haired old man in purple felt a little proud when he heard the white-haired old man in the jade brocade python robe commented on his sect's disciples.

"Hahaha, Zi Donglai, I can't see it. Your disciples seem to only do some crooked ways, and they are not even on the stage, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

The long-haired old man in purple clothes heard the star operator of Zhenxing Sect mocking him, and his good mood was instantly destroyed.

He narrowed his eyes and responded coldly: "Old Ghost Xing, when it comes to evil ways, it seems that you disciples of the Xingxing Sect are more suitable. Besides, in the competition on the stage, no matter what method is used, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Win the game. That’s fine, why are there so many complaints about women?”

The Star Operator of the Formation Star Sect snorted coldly and ignored the long-haired old man in purple clothes' rebuttal.

At this time, the fighting on the stage was intensifying, and there were almost twenty people left. Mu Fan still carried out his old plan and did not take the initiative to cause trouble for others.

In this way, the time of three sticks of incense passed quickly...

"Next, the list of promotions for the knockout rounds will be announced!" As the black-clothed referee shouted, all eyes on the stage and off the stage focused on the black-clothed referee.

"Che Ying, Liu Yan, Meng Yiran, Xian Lanshuang, Situ Yan, Mu Qiu, Wu Xiyu, Mu Fan! Congratulations to the eight players above in Group A for advancing to the next round!"

As soon as the referee in black made the announcement, the audience cheered again, some were happy, some were disappointed, but the game was so cruel, sixty-five people defeated eight people.

In this way, all the participating disciples from the Qi Training Realm completed the first round of the group knockout competition on the first day.

There are five groups of eight people in each group, which still adds up to forty people, which is still a lot.

Mu Qianyu and Mu Lin were very happy to see Mu Fan successfully promoted, and the three of them happily gathered together for a drink that night.
