Chapter 897: Entering the Top 100

Because the cultivation resources are controlled by those big families and big forces, the resources left for the grassroots are too few, so there is no grassroots who can break into the top 100.

The current situation in Dongzhou is actually a microcosm of the entire martial arts world. In the martial arts world, since ancient times, resources have been in the hands of a few people. This is an irrefutable truth.

However, Su Chen has been committed to using his own strength to break this truth in this life. Even if you are a grassroots person, you can stand at the peak of martial arts and step on the children of aristocratic families.

At this time, the formation has been activated for about a quarter of an hour, and some applicants who can't stand the pressure of the formation have run out of the formation.

"This first round of screening is actually an examination of the comprehensive strength of the contestants. Those who can stay in it for three quarters of an hour mean that their comprehensive martial arts strength is higher than others."

Su Chen looked at the screening formation and nodded secretly. It is indeed a good screening mechanism.

Ruan Ximao also said with a smile: "In the past, those who performed well in this round of selection often achieved outstanding results in the final rookie list. Therefore, this round of selection can be called a touchstone for the contestants. The truly outstanding contestants will be reflected in this round of selection."

Su Chen also became interested and asked: "How is it reflected?"

Ruan Ximao said: "According to the rules, you only need to stay in the formation for three quarters of an hour to pass, but in the past, there have been contestants who stayed in it for two hours, and this is not the longest time. Going back further, there are even longer times."

"Oh? How long did the longest last?"

Su Chen asked with interest.

"I don't know about this. It's too long ago."

Ruan Ximao also shook his head. The rookie list has a history of hundreds of years. He doesn't know about those more than a hundred years ago.

Just as the two were talking, another quarter of an hour passed.

Half of the people who were eliminated have already been eliminated. Many of the remaining people who still persisted in the formation were sweating and looked precarious.

As time went by, more and more people were eliminated.

Finally, when the three quarters of an hour was over, there were only three or four thousand people left in the formation.

These three or four thousand people were the players who passed the first round of screening and qualified for the rookie battle.

However, the formation did not stop. If the players wanted, they could continue to persist in the formation and challenge their limits.

Of course, if they did not want to persist, they could leave the formation and would not be disqualified.

At present, many players who passed the screening left the formation and rested on the side.

But there were also quite a few players who persisted in the formation.

Su Chen paid attention and found that Xue Yong, Jian Qi, and Gu Qianyin all passed this round of screening smoothly. However, after passing the screening, the three did not continue to fight in the formation, but chose to rest on the side.

After an hour, there were only a few people who persisted in the formation.

You know, one hour is equal to eight quarters of an hour. It is conceivable what it means to persist for an hour.

Su Chen looked at the people who were still in the formation and found many familiar faces. There were Ruan Yanran, Meng Honglang, Duanmu Long, and even a face he hadn't seen for a long time-Kuang Chun.

In addition, Su Chen also noticed a very eye-catching figure among these people. It was a tall young man with purple hair and purple eyes, exuding an extraordinary aura.

"That's Li Xu of the Li family. He was the second on the rookie list last year. This year, his hope of winning the championship should be the greatest."

Ruan Ximao pointed at the purple-haired young man and said to Su Chen.

Su Chen nodded slowly. Looking at so many people, only Li Xu made him feel a desire to fight. This should be a good opponent.

Although Su Chen did not sign up for this rookie battle, he was not in a hurry. There would always be a chance to fight with the opponent in the future.

Before the time was half an hour, everyone left the formation because they couldn't hold on.

The only one who persisted for one and a half hours was Li Xu.

This time did not break the previous two-hour record.

However, Su Chen could clearly see that many of them, including Li Xu, were intentionally reserved and did not try their best in this stage.

This made Su Chen smile slightly. It seemed that the true strength of these people could only be seen in the stage of the ring competition.

Others in the stands were also discussing lively.

"Today's champion will probably fall to Li Xu, right?"

"That's not necessarily the case. I think Liu Zhen of the Liu family is also very strong."

"Ruan Yanran, my goddess, I hope she can make it into the top five. Since I met Fairy Ruan, I have been unable to eat or drink every day. She is so beautiful."

"That's because you haven't seen other beauties. I seem to have seen one among the contestants just now. She is so beautiful that my soul has fallen."
