Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 208: The First Battle
"These people are really going too far. They are all sarcastic and sarcastic... Huh, when the ranking battle begins, Junior Brother Yun will definitely tell them to shut up." Cang Yue said angrily without any princess style. The ridicule and sarcasm around her were all directed at Yun Che and the Cangfeng royal family, making her feel much more uncomfortable than being laughed at.
"No need to mind, this is the most normal situation." Qin Wushang's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly. In his opinion, it is abnormal not to be laughed at. If this happened to other sects, maybe even he, even if he didn't laugh, would naturally despise it in his heart.
"Brother-in-law, how many numbers were drawn?" When Yun Che came back, Xia Yuanba eagerly approached and asked.
Yun Che showed the sign he got. The number marked on it was: 1505.
After seeing the number clearly, Qin Wushang explained: "This number determines the venue and order you will be assigned to in the first group match. 1505 means that you are assigned to group No. 15 and will compete on the sword discussion platform No. 15. The first match of the game is the fifth one, and the first opponent is No. 1545.”
"The first round of group battles lasted for three days and was divided into thirty groups. Each group had about fifty participating disciples. The fifty participants in each group had to compete in twelve battles. Each group The top ten disciples with the highest number of wins, a total of 300 disciples, will enter the second round of the group stage. The 1,200 disciples who did not enter the second round of the group stage will be moved to the second stage for the ranking competition, but this time the competition will be held. In the ranking battle, not many people except the sect they belong to pay attention to it. "
Having said this, Qin Wushang sighed lightly. Because the Blue Wind royal family always moved to the secondary tournament after the first round of the group stage in the ranking competition, at least in the decades since he was born, no one from the Blue Wind royal family has ever been able to enter the second round of the group stage. The dream of becoming one of the top 100 companies is far away and out of reach.
"A total of three hundred disciples participated in the second round of the group stage, which also lasted for three days. Each disciple had to play fifteen games! Then they were ranked according to the number of wins, and the top one hundred and the top thirty-two were directly ranked. , the disciples other than a hundred will also be transferred to the secondary arena, and the thirty-three to one hundred positions will be arranged. If there are any dissatisfiers, they can challenge the participants who are ranked higher than themselves in the secondary arena. The challenged person must accept the challenge. If If the challenger wins, his/her ranking will be replaced... The main arena will be the final elimination round for the thirty-two participating disciples with the most wins.”
"These rankings are the rankings of the disciples participating in the battle. The ranking of the forces will be based on the final ranking of the disciples."
Xia Yuanba nodded his finger, then widened his eyes and said: "So, if we enter the second round of group matches, we will have to play a full twenty-seven games in six days, so many!"
Cang Yue said solemnly: "That's right. The atmosphere of the ranking matches has always been tense. However, the pace of the first round of the group stage is very fast, and it is easy for opponents with huge disparities in strength to appear. Soon they will be able to compete. End the battle. It’s normal for each group to play dozens or even hundreds of games a day. Junior Brother Yun, we must work hard and don’t forget the goal we agreed on before... to rank in the top 100!”
"Well, of course I haven't forgotten it." Yun Che nodded with a smile, his eyes focused on the faces of the disciples participating in the battle... If he can enter the top 100, he will definitely shock the entire audience and make everyone who laughs at him dumbfounded. , it will also make him famous all over the world, make Cangfeng Xuanfu proud and raise his eyebrows, and make Cang Yue and Qin Wushang extremely happy...
However, his goal is not at all like the top 100!
On the sword discussion stage, the mysterious strength test of all the disciples who participated in the battle was finally completed. Ling Wugou spent a long time reading out the basic procedures and rules of the ranking competition, and then, this time's Blue Wind ranking competition finally officially started.
"... During the battle, those who fall to the ground for more than ten breaths, or who voluntarily admit defeat, will be deemed defeated! Regardless of the reason, those who fail to take the stage for more than thirty breaths will be deemed to have voluntarily admitted defeat... Now, I announce that this year's Blue Wind The ranking battle has officially begun!”
As Ling Wugou's voice fell, large waves of profound energy came from all around. On top of the thirty small sword discussion platforms, a transparent mysterious energy barrier appeared at the same time. These mysterious force barriers can isolate the aftermath of the battle between the two sides to prevent them from spreading to the surrounding areas. At the same time, they also limit the fighting area between the two sides to a certain extent.
Thirty middle-aged people who had been preparing for a long time also flew up and landed next to the thirty small sword discussion stages. They were the thirty judges for the first round of the group stage. And these thirty people can all "cross the void", which means that they are all powerful in the Tianxuan realm. This fact makes many young disciples who sit in the well and watch the sky drop their jaws.
Thirty small sword platforms are evenly distributed around the main sword platform in the center. With the eyesight of the practitioner present, the status of any small sword platform can be clearly seen by just moving his eyes slightly from any position on the seat.
With the appearance of the mysterious force barrier and thirty referees, the number plates of the sixty disciples flashed at the same time, and the penetrating shouts of the thirty referees also sounded simultaneously. Soon, the number plates of each sword platform In a match, sixty opponents soon boarded the sword platform, and the ranking battle officially began.
"It has been found out. Yun Che's competition venue is Sword Platform No. 15, with the number 1505. The next few opponents have all been told. If they cannot be beaten to death, they can use as many moves as they can. It’s guaranteed that he won’t survive the second game, and he will lose half his life... No, maybe he will be missing his arms and legs in the first game.” Fen Juebi returned to his seat and whispered in Fen Juecheng’s ear.
Fen Juecheng glanced at the sword discussion platform No. 15 and nodded slowly.
Yun Che's seat happened to be very close to the sword discussion platform No. 15. His first match was scheduled for the fifth game. He did not immediately go to the sword discussion platform No. 15 to wait. Instead, he sat in his seat and watched silently. Watch the surrounding events.
There are more than five hundred forces, some are master swords, some are master swordsmen, some are master spears, some are master whips... all kinds of weapons can be seen, and the attributes of various mysterious powers are even more complicated, ranging from heavy to light. , or fancy mystical skills that make people overwhelmed.
At least, Xia Yuanba has realized that two eyes are not enough.
At present, it is only the first round of the group stage, which is also the most basic round of the entire ranking battle, but every game at this time is an extremely luxurious showdown outside. Because the two sides fighting are both under the age of twenty in the Spiritual Profound Realm, and both are out-and-out geniuses! This is a ranking battle that only belongs to top talents.
"Look! It's my sister!"
Xia Yuanba exclaimed at this moment and pointed to the sword discussion platform No. 9.
A quarter of an hour later, the sword discussion stage No. 9 has completed three games. In the fourth game, Xia Qingyue, wearing a veil and not showing her face, appeared on the sword discussion stage. The sword discussion stage No. 9 instantly became became the focus of the entire audience... Any disciple from the four major sects would definitely become the center of attention when he appeared.
Opposite Xia Qingyue, a twenty-year-old young man walked up, but his face was very ugly, and he was secretly complaining in his heart. He had profound power at the fourth level of the Spiritual Profound Realm, and he was also at the ninth level among the ninth group. He was in the middle and upper reaches, but he didn't expect that his first opponent would be someone from Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace.
But the other party was a seventeen-year-old girl. He really couldn't bear to admit defeat, so he had to bite the bullet and draw his sword: "Han Yunzhi of the Huanjian Sect, please give me some advice from the fairy!"
After the voice fell, he stepped forward, stabbed out with a sword, and once he took action, it was his most powerful skill "Three Lives Sword". The surging sword energy condensed into three sword flowers and attacked Xia Qingyue in a triangle.
Xia Qingyue's eyes were indifferent and she didn't move her steps. Facing Han Yunzhi's sword movement, she lightly flicked her snow-white right hand...
call!
The cold wind blew past Han Yunzhi's face, like countless knives cutting into Han Yunzhi's face. The strength of his sword was completely shattered in an instant. His whole body seemed to be trapped in an extremely cold icy purgatory. His limbs became extremely stiff. He remained The forward motion of swinging the sword stopped there. Not to mention continuing to swing the sword, even his fingers could hardly move.
A gorgeous layer of white frost spread from the tip of his sword to his whole body and the tips of his hair in the blink of an eye.
All the sect disciples who saw the power of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace's "Frozen Cloud Art" for the first time were stunned.
"I... admit... defeat..." Han Yunzhi's lips trembled and he struggled to say three words. He thought that even though he was four levels different from the opponent, he could at least support five or six meetings... But he didn't expect that he was not even qualified to meet the opponent.
"Han Yunzhi of the Huanjian Sect surrenders, Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace Xia Qingyue wins!"
As the referee on the No. 9 sword discussion platform loudly announced the verdict, the frost on Han Yunzhi's body also disappeared. He suddenly fell to his knees on the ground. After taking several deep breaths, he looked at Xia Qingyue with great awe, his steps weak. walked down the sword discussion stage.
Tianjian Villa, Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, Xiao Sect, and Burning Heaven Clan are collectively called the four major sects. However, they have not added one more to make up the number and call them the "five major sects". That is because, under the four major sects, there is no one at all. There are no sects that are qualified to make up the numbers. The difference between them and other sects is like the difference between clouds and mud. The foundation, resources, strength of the techniques... these have created the prestige of the four major sects, and also created the huge gap between them and other sects. For hundreds of years, the top ten individual rankings in ranking competitions have always been dominated by disciples from the four major sects, and no disciple from other sects can break in... without exception.
"It's amazing...Sister is actually so powerful." Xia Yuanba's eyes widened. He didn't even blink until Xia Qingyue walked off the sword discussion stage. After a while, he asked blankly: "Brother-in-law, you Did you see that my sister is already so powerful...you...can you beat my sister?"
"Haha, of course it's impossible." Qin Wushang responded with a smile: "If I'm not wrong, your sister should be the core disciple that Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace has focused on cultivating in recent years. Such a proud daughter of heaven, it is impossible to It’s not something our Blue Wind Profound Palace can compare to.”
Yun Che watched the game with a calm expression and said nothing.
At this time, the referee's high-pitched shout came from No. 15 Sword Controlling Platform:
“The fifth match of Group 15, Blue Wind Royal Family’s ‘Yun Che’—yes—Southern Region’s Qiong Yun Sect’s ‘Fu Yanjie’!”
