Chapter 48: The Competition Begins

Dongxiang Pavilion is rich in fragrance of flowers.

Three days of free time flew by, and for three full days, Lu Fan stayed in the room without taking a step out, waiting for the sorting competition to start.

A bell sounded from the sky, and Lu Fan slowly opened his eyes, waking up from his practice.

Xiao Hei beside him also woke up, and after a few days of rest, Xiao Hei finally regained his energy.

Immediately, there were clear voices from all directions.

"All new disciples, gather at the Martial Arts Field."

Lu Fan got up and pushed open the door, and immediately saw groups of students walking out quickly. He took Xiao Hei with him, and Lu Fan followed closely behind.

The huge Dongxiang Pavilion has tens of thousands of houses, and there is no end in sight.

There are so many new students, it is not too much to describe it as a sea of ​​people. All followed the leading instructor Wang Yan to the martial arts field.

Half an hour later, everyone gathered in the martial arts arena.

The extremely spacious martial arts arena is by no means smaller than a city.

Thousands of students stood in the martial arts arena, and they couldn't even fill a corner of the martial arts arena.

In the distance, ten figures can be seen floating in the sky, all sitting in huge wooden chairs, emitting light like the sun.

There is no doubt that these ten people are the nine masters and the dean of the Martial Arts Academy.

Soaring up from the ground and standing between the nine heavens, these ten people are at least above the Tiangang realm.

Although they didn't have the energy to unleash their strength, the terrifying aura still swept over the surroundings like overwhelming mountains and seas. It made Lu Fan and others feel unable to breathe.

"The freshmen are assembled, let's form."

There was another cry, and suddenly, Lu Fan felt the entire martial arts arena start to move.

The ground below floated up with a bang.

The huge martial arts arena was like a piece of floating land, spinning and floating, until it was a hundred feet above the ground, and finally stopped.

All the new students screamed in surprise and did not dare to move.

Then the ground of the bluestone slab began to be divided neatly and uniformly, one piece after another, and the separated ground was all the same size. It's just that the piece of ground they were standing on was not divided, and it was still intact.

The entire training ground was divided into hundreds of small floating islands. Then, rays of light came out from all directions one after another.

One after another, strange faces appeared on the floating island. There were a total of about a hundred people, all dressed in silver martial robes with the word "Martial Dao" embroidered on them.

At this time, a voice came from the sky again.

"All freshmen, each choose a venue, fight in pairs, and start the competition until there are ten left."

Before the words fell, Lu Fan saw many people around him rushing out and began to seize the floating island. Although Lu Fan didn't understand why, he still rushed out.

With Lu Fan's speed, he quickly rushed to a small floating island and stood firmly. Opposite him, another person rushed over soon.

There can only be two students standing on a small island, and the latecomers leave under the cold eyes of the silver-robed man in the middle.

Looking at Lu Fan and another burly student, the silver-robed man in the middle said: "I am Jiang Qing, the instructor of Martial Arts Academy. First of all, congratulations on your qualification for the first round of competition. Wait for the battle, admit defeat, drop , coma will be judged as failure. Poisons, elixir and other special props are not allowed. Everything is up to the point. Do you understand?"

Lu Fan and another student nodded slightly.

Instructor Jiang Qing smiled and said, "Very good. This student, please put your pet aside first."

Lu Fan patted Xiao Hei on the head. Xiao Hei walked to Mentor Jiang Qing's feet clearly. Instructor Jiang Qing glanced at Xiao Hei and smiled slightly.

At this moment, all the small islands were filled with people. But there are still some people who failed to find the island and are looking around blankly.

At this time, a powerful voice sounded in the sky.

"All those who did not occupy the competition venue will be eliminated and go to the Xixiang Pavilion to wait for the instructor to select."

As soon as this remark came out, the group of students were instantly dumbfounded. It turned out that this was the first round of competition.

Lu Fan raised his eyebrows straight at the sight, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately, his reaction was quick and his body skills were fast enough.

The largest island fell slowly, and a group of students left dejectedly. Lu Fan lowered his head and looked down, only to see groups of old students appearing at some point.

These old students were obviously here to watch the excitement, and they all smiled happily when they saw those students who were unlucky and didn't grab the venue leave.

"Haha, these idiots didn't even grab the venue."

"Back then, at least I really tried to compete with others."

. . . . . .

The ear-piercing laughter made these eliminated students feel even more embarrassed. A student yelled loudly, "It's not fair. You didn't clarify the rules in advance. I was just a step too late, or didn't find out clearly. How could we be eliminated like this. We also have a chance to compete!"

The cry of this student resonated with many people, and a group of people shouted loudly.

At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and amidst the thunder and lightning, a huge human head emerged from the sky, and said with a thunderous voice: "There is no fairness in this world, one step is slow, one step is slow. Even if you have many The reason is nothing more than an excuse for failure. Anyone who dares to make noise will be dealt with by thunder."

A thunder fell through the gap between the small islands and landed on the ground, and a huge pothole was shot out in the ground in an instant.

This sound shocked all the students in the group to silence. Lu Fan looked at the huge head in the sky in shock, and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

"My God, there are really such huge people in this world."

Instructor Jiang Qing looked at the astonished faces of Lu Fan and another student, and said, "This is the apocalypse of the college's enforcer. If you don't abide by the rules of the college in the future, be careful that he will punish you with thunder."

Lu Fan swallowed. With such terrifying people around, who would dare to disobey the academy's rules.

A group of students were quickly taken away, and the sky became clear again. The old students below started talking again. For them, every time they see Tianqi, they are also frightened.

"Okay, let's start the competition."

At the command of Jiang Qing, Lu Fan drew out his epee.

The student on the opposite side also took out his own weapon, charged towards Lu Fan with a soft shout.

Lu Fan raised his strength, raised his hand and made a move with the epee, breaking the breath!

The students who rushed up were stunned the moment they saw Gang Jin, and then they were knocked unconscious by Lu Fan's sword.

While fighting on Lu Fan's side, the students on other small islands also started to compete, and the sound of fighting was endless for a while.

In the sky, the president of the Martial Arts Academy and the nine branch masters looked at everything with a smile on their faces.

The dean smiled and said: "The colleges recruited this year seem to be better than last year, and there are quite a few who have practiced strength."

Next to him, Master Xuanzhen, who was dressed in blue with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, smiled and said, "Yes, there are quite a few sword users. It seems that our Qingjian Academy will be accepting some good seedlings again this year."

"Could it be that your Qingjian Academy can receive good seedlings? I can see several little guys with good physique at a glance. Haha, seeing these energetic young people fighting, I feel They are much younger."

The bearded Master Shentu of Hengshanyuan smiled happily, and kept stroking his beard with a big hand.

The dean chuckled twice, then turned his head and asked the middle-aged man on the other side: "Yiqing, how many people are you going to accept this time?"

Yiqing raised his eyebrows and looked at the dean, with a chubby face, he squeezed out a smile and said, "If you see one that suits your taste, take one or two, and if you don't like it, don't take it."

While talking, Master Yiqing touched his round belly with a smile, his obese body could not be covered by Yiqing's martial robe.

Before the words fell, a cold voice came.

"The way you do it, the Yuanyuan, will be destroyed by your hands sooner or later."

The one who spoke was Master Xingyuan from Yinyang Academy, with white hair shawl, serious face, eyes as cold as stars, strangers are not allowed to enter.

As if he knew Xingyuan's temper long ago, Yiqing didn't even bother to talk to him.

The others shook their heads and smiled wryly. These two people have been together for decades, and they still have this temper, which is really helpless.

Below, after a round of competition, half of the students were directly eliminated.

Lu Fan stood in the middle of the island. He won this round very easily, with a smile on his lips.

Changing places, another round of competition began, this time his opponent was a warrior with a long knife. The knife technique is good, and when it comes up, it is a dazzling knife light. It's a pity that his strength is too poor, his cultivation base is not enough, and he hasn't even practiced Gang Jin, so how can he be Lu Fan's opponent, two swords can solve it.

In the third round, the opponent was a girl who was good at legwork and had a first-level inner strength. It's a pity that her legwork couldn't kick Lu Fan at all, and Lu Fan almost swept him off the island with his sword, and surrendered.

In the fourth round, a student who is good at using a left-handed sword has tricky swordsmanship and talks a lot of nonsense, beating and cursing at the same time. Lu Fan was not polite to him, and a blow of the Bengshan Fist directly sent him flying out of the island. If the mentor hadn't caught him with the force of the outside, this guy would have been seriously injured at least on the spot. But Lu Fan still left a deep impression on him.

The number dwindled, and soon there were only a few dozen left.

Several masters watched and nodded secretly. Master Xingyuan pointed to a small island in the middle and said, "Who is this girl?"

The dean chuckled lightly and said, "See? It's that old guy's disciple who deliberately came here to steal from us."

Xingyuan said expressionlessly: "She doesn't need to compare. Come directly to my Yin Yang Yard. I want to see how much she can steal."

After finishing speaking, Xingyuan sent a voice transmission to the instructor on the small island. Immediately, the instructor said to the girl: "Student Huanyue, you don't have to compare. Master Xingyuan of Yinyang Academy is willing to accept you, so you can go."

Huanyue put away her dagger and said: "Yin Yang Yuan? Haha, I originally wanted to enter Yin Yang Yuan. Since there is no need to compare, then I will go back to sleep."

Huanyue left happily, and her departure caused other people to turn their heads and look over.

Lu Fan also glanced at her, and said with a chuckle, "What is she doing again? Could it be that she has a privilege again."

Just as she was thinking, Huanyue suddenly yelled in Lu Fan's direction: "Lu Fan, I'm going to Yin Yang Yuan, if you can come in, come and find me?"

Lu Fan froze for a moment, then smiled helplessly, he would not go to Yin Yang Yuan.

At this moment, the student who was fighting against Lu Fan saw Lu Fan distracted, and punched Lu Fan in the face.

Lu Fan swung his sword and slapped him on the ground, slapping him down. The weight of the sword alone held down the opponent until the opponent struggled and had no choice but to admit defeat.

Above, Master Xuanzhen saw Lu Fan's performance, and said with a smile: "This little guy is not bad, let him enter my Qingjian Academy."
