After a night's rest, people from the nine aristocratic families once again gathered at Junzifeng of the Nangong family. However, after yesterday's round of eliminations, some families no longer have much hope for the next competition.
So compared with yesterday, the atmosphere today is far less enthusiastic than yesterday.
Of course, even so, it is impossible for everyone to give up on this competition. Because after the first round of screening, in fact, the remaining people from each aristocratic family are basically in the late Mahayana stage, or are relatively strong.
Therefore, even if they have relatively few people, there is still some hope that they will be better than the top three.
And if they are lucky and don't meet the real top players, then their hopes will be even greater.
Today's draw is different and yesterday's numbers are invalid.
The total number of participants is twenty-nine, which means that there are only twenty-eight people competing, that is, fourteen groups, and the extra one will get a bye.
The battle table has been arranged, with number one against number two, number three against number four, and so on, so the one who draws the last number, number twenty-nine, will have a bye.
The procedure was the same as yesterday. At the beginning, all the contestants went on stage to draw lots. Once a number is drawn, put the number on the battle table.
Everyone stared at the huge battle table on the stage, and saw more and more names appearing on the battle table, gradually filling up the entire battle table.
“I don’t know who can draw this bye number this time, it will be a big profit!”
"No matter who it is, it's impossible for him to be that boy from the Chen family again. I think that boy is only in the middle stage of Mahayana. If he doesn't get a bye, he will definitely be eliminated in the second round!"
"That's not necessarily true. Judging from yesterday's situation, the strength of the Chen family is not simple. Then isn't Chen Dong just a mid-stage Mahayana man? In the end, he didn't defeat the late-stage Mahayana man of the Shangguan family.
Now the overall ranking of their Chen family has reached third place. If they can maintain this advantage today, then their Chen family really hopes to win the top three in the competition this time! "
"I think you are overthinking. Although the Chen family has a dark horse, today is not yesterday. There were many contestants yesterday, and it is inevitable that their strength will be uneven.
But today is different. Most of the weaker ones have been eliminated, and the remaining ones are basically the real top geniuses from various families.
People like the Chen family who want to rely on luck to win will not be able to pass today's level! "This person obviously doesn't think very highly of the Chen family.
After all, the Chen family is not very strong among the nine major families. Although yesterday's performance was good, today's battle will inevitably be more intense, and the Chen family cannot maintain such an advantage.
"What if that guy really gets a bye again? Wouldn't it be easy to advance?" Another person laughed.
He felt that this person sometimes relied on luck, and not everyone with strength would be able to reach the pinnacle of life.
Some people are born with good luck, and no one knows how many powerful enemies they have trampled under their feet.
The world is full of wonders, and he believes that such things happen everywhere, even every day, but they have not encountered them.
"It seems that this dear friend is very optimistic about this lucky person of the Chen family?" The man said not to be outdone.
"Haha, I can't tell you how good it is. I just feel that luck is sometimes hard to explain clearly. Once a person's luck comes, it really can't be driven away. What if he really gets a bye again today? ?
Now that the 29th has not come out yet, he really has a chance. I think we should wait and see! "The man laughed.
"In that case, why don't we make a bet?" the man continued.
"How to bet?" The man seemed to be interested.
"It's very simple. I bet this boy from the Chen family will never get another bye, and he will definitely be eliminated today! If I lose, this is yours!" The man said and took out an emerald green pill.
"Bi Yuan Dan? This is a spiritual-level recovery elixir. Do you really plan to bet on it?" When the man saw the emerald green elixir, his face was filled with surprise.
Spirit-level elixirs are very precious, and these are recovery elixirs. However, with the kind of elixir in hand, although it cannot bring the dead back to life, it can quickly recover from many serious injuries.
Such elixirs are very helpful for training outside, especially when someone is chasing you after being injured. If you have such elixirs in hand, even if the injury is too serious, you can recover in just two days.
"How's it going? My dear, do you dare to make a bet with me?" The girl said nonchalantly.
It seemed that he didn't take such a pill seriously, and if he lost, he would lose.
"Why don't you dare to gamble? It's just that Brother Taoist Biyuan Dan is so precious. I'm afraid that I don't have anything precious that could catch the eye of Brother Taoist!" Seeing that this man was wearing the Taoist uniform of the Situ family, the man felt that this The people from the Situ family are really wealthy.
However, although this person is in the late stage of Mahayana, he is not a contestant. It can be seen that he is already over 500 years old. Such a person may be much stronger than these contestants.
"It's easy. If I win by luck, how about you give me that jade pendant?" The man from the Situ family pointed at the green jade pendant on the opponent's waist and smiled.
"Oh? It turns out that Brother Dao has fallen in love with my onion fat jade. In this case, I will bet on this round with Brother Dao. I will bet that the brothers of the Chen family will get a bye again and successfully enter the next round. Game! If I lose, my scallion jade will be yours!" This man did not hesitate at all. This scallion jade is a spiritual weapon-level defensive magic weapon. It is also valuable, not even as good as the opponent's jade. Yuan Dan is poor.
"Okay! My brother is really happy. Let's wait and see if that guy from the Chen family is really as lucky as my friend said and can get another bye!" The man from the Situ family said with a satisfied smile.
He does not deny that luck is part of strength, but when a person's luck always runs out, how can he help him every time, so in his opinion, he will definitely win this time.
A spiritual weapon-level defensive magic weapon is quite good. After all, Horcruxes are rare. A spiritual weapon-level defensive magic weapon can still play a big role in battle. It may even save his life at a critical moment. , which has the same effect as his Biyuan Dan.
Moreover, his elixir is a one-time consumable, but the opponent's green onion jade can be used multiple times. If he gets this jade pendant, he will definitely make a profit!
But the other party is not a fool, and he naturally knows this. It's just that spiritual-level elixirs are too rare on the market, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them, especially this type of recovery elixir.
So he obviously knew that it would be difficult for Chen Qiuhan to get another bye, but he was still willing to gamble on this round.
As there are more and more names on the battle table, the remaining numbers are getting fewer and fewer, but the number 29 has never appeared. People who have not yet drawn lots hope that they can draw the number 29!
But no one expected that at the end of the draw, there would be only one number 29 left on the battle table!
"Who else didn't draw lots?"
