Chapter 1086 Ranking Changes
The ranking of those who came back has been arranged, and it has been a long time since everyone came out of the valley. Shangguan Tong looked at the Qingteng Sanren next to him and said: "Fellow Qingteng, the time is almost up. Do you think you can choose based on this result?" Will the first ten disciples go to Dry Tomb City with you?"
Qingteng Sanren looked at Tianshi and said: "I calculated the time, and there is still half a stick of incense. Let's wait a little longer, lest we miss anyone."
Comrade Shangguan said: "No, there are more than a hundred young people from Tongcoff County who came to compete this time. Although I don't know every one of them, I know who has the strength and who has the potential. All the training Candidates with Qi levels above three have all returned, and even if there are still people behind, it is unlikely that any dark horse will appear, let alone have an impact on the top ten..."
Before Shangguan Tong could finish his words, he saw a shadow flying towards this side from inside the deep valley. He couldn't help but wonder? It looks a bit similar to the flying monster, but the contestant with the highest strength is only in the middle stage of Qi refining. It shouldn't be. Could it be that someone brought the flying monster?
When the shadow got closer, everyone saw clearly that there were no flying objects or flying monsters. There was just someone standing on a paper crane and flying back. However, this method was also very powerful. For ordinary monks, It's absolutely impossible to do it. Could it be that there will really be another dark horse in the Holy Son preliminaries this time? Will the top ten rankings be rewritten?
The paper crane fluttered its wings and flew out of the valley. Ma Xingchen couldn't hold on any longer and fell down from the paper crane with a splash. The energy of the paper crane seemed to have been exhausted, and a ball of flame burst out with a bang, and soon It turned into a ball of ashes and fell to the ground.
Others didn't know what happened to Ma Xingchen and the others, but they just guessed that they might have encountered danger in the deep valley. Only one of them escaped. Sang Yuan and Brother Jia's faces were full of shock. Brother Jia had already taken care of them after they came out. What they did told Sang Yuan, and Sang Yuan also thought that Ma Xingchen and the five of them were stopped by the bronze-armored zombies in the later stage, and they must have been wiped out. Who knew that Ma Xingchen could still run out alive, and even caught up with Saint The deadline for sub-preliminary selection seems to be a bit too good, right?
Fortunately, Ma Xingchen had a broken leg, so he had learned a lesson. More importantly, the damn guard didn't come out. He was probably killed by a zombie, so it wasn't like he had gained nothing.
Ma Xingchen's condition was very bad, but he did not fall into coma. He endured the pain and fatigue and got up from the ground, dragging his broken leg to the front of Shangguan Tong with difficulty.
Shangguan Tong seemed to know Ma Xingchen, looked at him and said: "I know you are the son of the mayor of Mayi Town. Among the more than a hundred candidates, your conditions are particularly poor in all aspects, but you can still survive such a serious injury." Rushing back in time, your perseverance is admirable. You have done your best for this Holy Son preliminaries. There will be many opportunities in the future, so there is no need to work so hard. "
Ma Xingchen only has the strength of the second level of Qi Refining, and Mai Town is also very poor. If he can achieve mid-to-upper level results, he has exceeded his level. Shangguan Tong doesn’t think he can really squeeze into the top ten. The reason why he said so many words , it is also a matter of duty, just a matter of routine.
Shangguan Tong took the Yin Diagnostic Talisman from Ma Xingchen in a routine manner. He was stunned when he saw it and couldn't help but said: "This...how is this possible?"
"What's going on?" Qingteng Sanren asked quickly.
Shangguan Tong handed Ma Xingchen's Yin Diagnosing Talisman to Qingteng Sanren and said: "You should also take a look. He, a small second-level Qi refining monk, actually killed three bronze-armored zombies and iron-armored zombies. One of them It’s still a late-stage bronze-armored zombie. This result is really beyond my expectations. It seems that the ranking of the top ten in the Holy Son preliminaries will really change this time.”
Qingteng Sanren nodded and said: "The second level of Qi Refining killed three bronze-armored zombies, including one in the late stage. For some candidates with special abilities, it is not impossible. The paper he rode last He is quite interesting. It seems that he was able to come back before the deadline of three days. Lord Shangguan County, please revise the ranking."
With so many people on site supervising, Shangguan Tong had no grudge against Ma Xingchen, so he would not commit fraud. After converting the points on the Yin Diagnostic Talisman into scores according to the rules set before the game, he added Ma Xingchen's results to the ranking. , after correction, it was discovered that Ma Xingchen was actually ranked in front of Sang Yuan, that is, eighth. In this case, Sang Yuan became ninth, and the two brothers Ju Jiao and Ju Han also moved back one place each, becoming Tenth and eleventh.
After the rankings were arranged, the deadline for the Holy Son preliminaries had long passed. Shangguan Tong whispered a few words to Qingteng Sanren, and then said loudly: "The Holy Son preliminaries have ended, and Qingteng Sanren and I have also sorted out the rankings. , let me announce it in front of everyone now. The first place is Shangguan Yan; the second place is Bai Qing; the third... the eighth place is Ma Xingchen; the ninth place is Sang Yuan; the tenth place is Jujiao. This is it. The top ten in the Second Holy Child Preliminary Selection will go to Dry Tomb City to participate in the Holy Child Primary Election. I will not announce them one by one later. The selected ones will actively prepare after they return home..."
Before Shangguan Tong finished speaking, someone suddenly shouted loudly: "Impossible, how can he, Ma Xingchen, be ranked eighth? He is a small second-level Qi Refining monk, and his guards don't even have armor. How come Is it possible to achieve such good results? I’m not convinced..."
The speaker was naturally Ju Han, who was ranked eleventh. He had a chance to be selected, but because of Ma Xingchen, he was squeezed to eleventh place. The opportunity to be the tenth place was fought for by them at a huge cost. He was ready to go to Kuzhong City, but who knew that it was gone in the blink of an eye. How could he accept it?
Being questioned by the younger generation in person, Shangguan Tong looked very unhappy and said in a deep voice: "Do you think there is a shady deal in this competition? Or do you think Qingteng Sanren and I are partial to each other?"
Being stared at by a late-stage foundation-building cultivator, Ju Han was a little short of breath, but this matter was related to his future, and he had to fight for it, so he said: "I dare not question the decision of the county lord and Qingteng Sanren, but I don't understand, how can Ma Xingchen be ranked so high?"
He said that he dared not question, but his words were full of doubts. Shangguan Tong snorted, as if he was too lazy to answer his question. Ma Xingchen finally had a chance to speak, and said coldly: "This is all thanks to the help of you brothers. If you hadn't attracted that late-stage bronze-armored zombie to stop us, how could we have killed him? If I hadn't killed that bronze-armored zombie, how could I have ranked eighth? I can achieve this good result, I really have to thank you brothers at home."
