Chapter 293 The Final Round of Drawing Lots

There are also students at the peak of the True Yuan Realm in Dongsheng Prefecture, but they all exceed the age limit and cannot meet the standards of the so-called young talents.

Young geniuses must be under thirty years old in order to participate in the selection.

This is a rule that has always been set, so there are not many talented people in Dongsheng State who meet the standards.

Seeing Li Qingyu withdraw from the competition, Xia Yan remained unmoved.

Shui Mingzhong also knew that the next game would be cruel. He didn't know if Xia Yan could continue. Although he also wanted Southern China to be selected, he didn't dare to let anything happen to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan's talent is so radiant that even if he returns to Southern China, the master will focus on cultivating him, and it is very likely that he will be retained by the headquarters to train him.

Shui Mingzhong knows this very well. This is not the first time he has led a team to participate in a martial arts competition.

Even though honor is important, being a genius is even more important. Without honor, there is at most no reward. If a genius is abolished, then even a supreme elder may be punished.

Shui Mingzhong asked: "Xia Yan, are you confident in the next competition? No one will say anything if we lose and retire."

Xia Yan said with a proud face: "I, Xia Yan, will never give up without a fight, or defeat me!"

After he finished speaking and left proudly, Shui Mingzhong felt a little embarrassed and sighed and said: "Is this the arrogance of a genius? Once upon a time, my grandson also had such arrogance, but now this arrogance has long been lost on him."

Shui Mingzhong looked at Xia Yan's back, and finally said helplessly: "That's it. If you want to continue the selection, I will wish you good results. After all, you are also bringing glory to Southern China."

Seven days later, the selection day came again, and people from several major states came to watch the final selection.

But everyone knows in their hearts that the top five are those students with high cultivation levels.

Yan Ruoyun, wearing a green gauze dress, descended from the sky and slowly landed on the ground. She announced: "Today is the last selection. Because there are only seven students, we use a points-based system of rotating battles. The top five with the highest points will be the representatives." The people from our school who participated in the final battle with Hunyuan College.

However, because your cultivation levels may be high or low, I still have to respect your opinions. Those who are willing to give up now can come forward. If not, then the selection will start immediately, giving you ten breaths of time to think about it! "

Xia Houyi looked at Xia Yan because he decided to have a good meeting with Xia Yan later.

Among the seven students, no one gave up, and all wanted to compete for this final glory.

Yan Ruoyun still quite recognized the character of these students, looked at everyone with admiration, and said to everyone: "Very good, your courage is commendable, since no one quits, let's get started.

Now each of you comes forward to draw lots. There are seven of you, and each of you will draw a number, from one to seven. Then you play against each other according to the numbers, number one against number two, number three against number four, number five against number six, and the person who draws number seven gets a bye in the first round.

Then in the second round, No. 1 will have a bye, No. 2 will play against No. 3, No. 4 will play against No. 5, and No. 6 will play against No. 7.

In the third round, No. 2 has a bye, No. 1 vs. No. 3, No. 4 vs. No. 6, No. 5 vs. No. 7, and so on. Do you understand? "

After listening to Yan Ruoyun's introduction to the rules, the seven academy students who participated in the selection responded in unison: "I understand!"

Yan Ruoyun nodded and said: "Then you start drawing lots. If you feel that your opponent is too strong, you can give up the current round and wait for the start of the second round.

Winning a game is worth one point, and the one with the highest points will be ranked first. If there is a tie for points, the two will continue to play against each other to decide. After the first round, the second round will be held three days later.”

Everyone basically understood the rules and began to draw their own numbers.

After a while, everyone held a number plate in their hands. No. 1 was Mu Nanfeng, No. 2 Fang Ke'er, No. 3 Xia Houyi, No. 4 Linghu Qingyue, No. 5 Jiang Jinwu, No. 6 Zhuge Qingtian, No. 7 Xia Yan.

Shui Mingzhong's eyes lit up. Xia Yan actually drew number seven and got a bye in the first round.

This is not bad, it can better save energy and wait for the second game three days later.

Originally, Shui Mingzhong's abacus was very good, but the next operation made Shui Mingzhong dumbfounded.

No. 2 Fang Keer gave in directly to Mu Nanfeng, No. 3 Xia Houyi also gave in directly to Linghu Qingyue, and No. 5 Jiang Jinwu also gave in to Zhuge Qingtian.

In this way, none of the six people competed, and the winner was determined directly.

Xia Yan also saw what everyone was thinking. He was unwilling to fight with someone stronger than him first. If he was injured and couldn't recover for three days, there would be no way to continue the selection.

At the same time, Xia Yan also understood why the school only gave him three days to recover, which was not enough at all.

Xia Yan secretly said: "It turns out that the school has guessed that you will save your energy and admit defeat. Since you are so smart, I will not be stupid enough to challenge myself."

Yan Ruoyun seemed to have expected this to happen, and continued: "Since you didn't waste your energy in the first round, let's start the second round directly. There is no need to wait until three days later."

In the second round, No. 1 Mu Nanfeng got a bye, No. 2 Fang Keer faced No. 3 Yi, No. 4 Linghu Qingyue faced No. 5 Jiang Jinwu, and No. 6 Zhuge Qingtian faced Xia Yan.

But the situation was still the same. People with low cultivation levels all gave in and there was no match.

Shui Mingzhong saw it from the side, his mouth twitched, and he cursed secretly: "These brats, is this okay? You are almost adults, each one is more calculating than the other."

Although Yan Ruoyun knew that this would be the result, there was still a look of disappointment in her eyes.

She couldn't help but think of Yu Ruoxi's performance in the arena. She would rather die than give up to defeat opponents who were stronger than her. Although these geniuses in front of her were all top-notch in talent, they did not have a fearless heart.

Of course, Zhuge Qingtian and Linghu Qingyue are not included here. Both of them are top geniuses who are not afraid of anyone.

But when Xia Yan met Fang Keer, the two started a big battle, and Xia Yan actually won.

Xia Yan's goal is also very clear. He has little chance of winning against others. Only Fang Ke'er and Jiang Jinwu, who are at the seventh level of the True Yuan Realm, have a chance to win.

But when he stood on the stage for selection again, Xia Yan met Xia Houyi before he met Jiang Jinwu.

Xia Yan originally wanted to admit defeat, but before he could say anything, Xia Houyi said: "Xia Yan? I don't know why you also have a fire spirit body, but..."

Before Xia Houyi could speak, he was directly interrupted by Xia Yan: "No need to talk nonsense, I have nothing to do with your family. It is my chance to awaken the fire spirit body."

Xia Houyi said angrily: "You brat, don't talk nonsense, do you dare to fight me? I won't take advantage of you, I will suppress my cultivation to the same level as you."

Xia Yan said disdainfully: "Then you are looking for death!"

After saying that, the two of them immediately turned on their momentum, and the temperature in the ring instantly rose.
