"Good! Well done! This traitorous disciple deserves to be disgraced! " In the crowd, Nan Tianba and the Nan Tianmen brothers felt relieved when they saw this scene. {{wx}}
Although Lin Yi was also their enemy, his hatred towards Yu Zhe was much higher. Yesterday, he had just been humiliated by Yu Zhe, and today, he saw Yu Zhe end up in the same situation. This feeling was too great!
Lin Yi ignored the cursing Yu Zhe and turned his attention to another match. One of the main characters was Huang Xiaotao, and her opponent today was Meng Tong.
If it was a coincidence, it was already a coincidence that Lin Yi was matched up against Yu Zhe. He didn't expect Huang Xiaotao to be matched up against Meng Tong. This could no longer be explained as a coincidence. In addition, the host of the Inner Disciple Competition was Xu Yuanzheng. It would be strange to say that no one had secretly tampered with the drawing of lots.
Huang Xiaotao and Meng Tong were both in the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Moreover, they both had a perfect breakthrough to the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Purely in terms of strength, they could be considered a pair of formidable opponents.
However, Huang Xiaotao's martial arts and weapons were at a great disadvantage in the arena. Especially in a one-on-one battle, there was no one who could cover for her.
It was already not easy to win against Wu Bufan in the first round yesterday. Now that she was matched up against Meng Tong, who was also a perfect Golden Core expert, her chances of winning were naturally not high. Even Lin Yi didn't expect her to win.
Meng Tong's strength was far superior to Wu Bufan's. Moreover, he was an expert with a thousand kicks and was a speed-type expert. It would be much easier for him to close the distance between him and Huang Xiaotao than Wu Bufan. More importantly, Huang Xiaotao's move of turning an arrow into a spear had already been exposed yesterday. Once this move was guarded against, it would be difficult for it to have any effect.
The truth was indeed as Lin Yi expected. After persisting for the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, Huang Xiaotao was finally defeated by Meng Tong's thousand kicks. Fortunately, Lin Yi had already instructed her to protect herself.
This time, Meng Tong had followed Xu Lingchong's instructions and wanted to directly kill Huang Xiaotao, putting Lin Yi in a difficult position in the following two-on-two battle. He didn't expect that Huang Xiaotao would choose to admit defeat after knowing that she was no match for him, leaving him with no way to make a move.
"Hmph, consider yourself lucky that you escaped quickly!" Meng Tong sneered as he glanced at Huang Xiaotao. He then walked down the stage and faced Xu Lingchong. With a face full of disdain, he commented, "Just so-so."
"That's good. Lin Yi has found such a trashy woman to be his partner. When the time comes, he'll just be asking for trouble." Xu Lingchong laughed and nodded in relief.
Huang Xiaotao's performance yesterday was also a rare sight to behold. At first, he was still a little afraid of her, but now that Meng Tong had found out more about her, there was nothing to worry about.
In the morning, the second round of the individual battles had all ended. The list of the top 50 was released. Lin Yi, Meng Tong, and Xu Lingchong, these few new faces from the inner sect competition were still on the list.
Compared to the top 100. The quality of the top 50 list was obviously a level higher. Getting into the top 100 could still depend on luck, but to get into the top 50, one must have real strength. There was no doubt about this.
The top 50 was already considered the upper class among all the Gold Core stage disciples. There was already a world of difference between them and the people behind. Not to mention anything else, at least they could already ensure that they would get points, even if the last place only had one point.
In the afternoon, the third round of the individual battles began. The remaining 50 people charged towards the top 25.
However, there were not 25 matches in the competition. Among the top 50, there were some people who had won in the morning, but it was a narrow or even a pyrrhic victory. Even if they were not seriously injured, they had used up all their Zhen Qi and could no longer continue to fight.
This kind of situation had already appeared in the second round in the morning. However, after a night of rest, most of them still had the strength to fight, so it was rare for them to directly give up. Now that it was the third round, there were at least ten people in the top 50 who were forced to give up.
They did not participate in the drawing of lots, but directly tied for the last place in the top 50, and each obtained one point.
As for the rest of the people, they continued to draw lots to compete. Once they lost, it meant that they would stop here. If they won, it did not mean that they could go further, because after every round, there would be people who could not continue to fight due to their poor condition, and after obtaining the corresponding points, they would withdraw.
Along the way, Lin Yi was more scared than hurt. Finally, after defeating a peak Gold Core middle stage master by luck, he stood at the peak of the top 50 and entered the final of the individual battles.
Such a domineering performance really stunned everyone present. He was only an expert at the initial-stage of the Golden Core Realm, and he was even a new disciple of the Welcome Pavilion that had only joined the three great pavilions for a year. Now he had actually passed through all the tests successfully and entered into the finals of the individual battles of the Inner Court Competition!
This was an unprecedented feat, a legend that could be recorded in the annals of history. Even Zhang Liju from all those years ago didn't defy the heavens to such an extent!
Of course, besides his own tyrannical strength, another important reason why Lin Yi was able to successfully laugh until the end was because there were very few core disciples above the late stage of the golden core stage participating in the inner sect competition, and even those at the peak of the golden core stage rarely appeared here.
Most people whose strength had reached this level were already disciples of the various higher ups of the sect, and some weren't even disciples in name, but official disciples, so there was no need for them to participate in the inner sect competition at all.
Their cultivation resources were naturally prepared by these higher ups themselves, and they didn't need to rely on the resources allocated by the officials of the three great pavilions. Naturally, there was no need for them to participate in the inner sect competition. In fact, many core disciples of the inner sect wouldn't participate in the inner sect competition in the second year after they became disciples in name of the higher ups of the sect.
Of course, there were always some exceptions. For example, the peak Gold Core middle stage master that Lin Yi faced earlier, or the advanced stage master that Xu Lingchong faced in the first round.
At the same time that Lin Yi had locked in his position in the finals, the outcome of the battle had similarly been decided on the other side. The opponent that Lin Yi was about to face was precisely his old enemy, Xu Lingchong.
At this moment, the sky was already dusk. Both of them stood on the arena of the finals, and the afterglow of the setting sun descended onto their bodies, causing them to actually seem to be dyed in a crimson red killing intent, causing everyone below the arena to be unable to look directly at them.
The battle hadn't even begun, yet the atmosphere was already confrontational, and the interest of everyone below the arena was aroused. No matter if it was Lin Yi or Xu Lingchong, they were both influential figures at the center of the conversation. Now that they'd both advanced into the finals of the individual battles, it was extremely explosive.
