For Ling Xiao, the battle that followed could be considered a mixed blessing.
Ji Luoyu and Feng Minglian were eliminated.
Liu Lian, Blue Snow, and Hong Yue successfully advanced.
In the end, there were four people from the Celestial Empire who advanced to the second round. They were Ling Xiao, Cold Plum, Long Chen, and Dan Feng.
Blue Snow and Liu Lian belonged to the Tianhai Empire.
Hong Yue belonged to the Zhengyi School.
However, they had a good relationship with Ling Xiao.
In the first round, 33 people were eliminated. Only half of the 66 people were left.
All 13 top geniuses advanced.
Sun Lengchan, Mu Wanshuang, Jun Moqing, Jun Mochou, and the other second-tier experts also successfully advanced.
Basically, the dark horses were concentrated in the Celestial Empire.
However, in the second round, apart from the top geniuses, there were only second-tier geniuses.
All of them were truly tough battles.
No one knew who would continue to stand in the arena in the third round.
Although the eliminated cultivators had regretful expressions on their faces, they did not die. Compared to those who were killed in the arena, they were much better off.
Moreover, after experiencing a battle, they had also gained quite a lot.
At the very least, they recognized their own strength.
After all, the 155 people who participated this time were all called geniuses in their respective factions.
When geniuses met geniuses, who would be better? This was the true meaning of the White Tiger Meet.
As for those who had advanced to the next round, they all had joyful expressions on their faces.
As long as they did not die, they would be rewarded by the Black Tortoise Temple.
The Black Tortoise Temple's reward would definitely not be ordinary. They were looking forward to it.
Perhaps with this reward, they could be reborn and become even stronger.
Such a thing had also happened in the past White Tiger Storm Conclave.
Some people even had the opportunity to participate in the revival competition because of their cultivation breakthrough and their strength increase.
Although there was no revival competition this time, man proposes, God disposes. If such a thing really happened, the revival competition would definitely be put on the agenda.
"The first round of battles is over. You have two hours to rest. Take the time to recover your strength and heal your injuries!"
The injured and exhausted martial artists were not willing to waste time, so they immediately sat down and began to rest.
After all, not everyone had an easy victory. Many warriors had expended a lot of energy in the first round of battle.
Of course, there were also some people who didn't consume much energy at all. In order to determine their next opponent, they needed to discuss with the people they trusted the most.
After entering the second round of the Battle of the Kings, the top ten still had the right to challenge opponents at will.
Of course, he couldn't pick the top ten warriors either.
This rule was naturally to prevent powerhouses from bumping into each other too early. It could be considered a more reasonable measure of avoidance.
It was also the reward for the second battle.
Ling Xiao didn't say anything during the rest time. Instead, he continued to sit cross-legged and heal himself.
It seemed like he had not fully recovered after being injured by Xuan Ming yesterday.
This scene was also witnessed by many observant people.
Although Ling Xiao had killed Sora Aoi Fei, Sora Aoi Fei was too weak to prove anything.
Those who were stronger than Sora Aoi still thought that Ling Xiao was an easy opponent to defeat.
Of course, this was only relative. Among the top ten, he was the only one who was seriously injured. Moreover, his cultivation seemed to be only slightly higher than Long Chen's and lower than the others.
However, Long Chen was a descendant of the Dragon Tribe, so he definitely wouldn't be easy to deal with.
Two hours passed quickly, but Ling Xiao still didn't open his eyes.
There were still people who wanted to talk nonsense anyway, so he just listened. There was no need for him to move.
Lawless said slowly, "There are already 33 people in the second round of battle, so one of them can choose to pass.
The top ten have the right to choose this slot, starting from the first place.
If the top ten don't choose to pass, the slot will be randomly selected by the rest of the people. Whoever is lucky will get it.
Also, I have to remind you that if you choose to pass, you will lose the reward for the second round of battle! "
Every victory in the Battle of the Kings had a reward, which could be stacked with the advancement reward.
The reward for victory was usually Spirit Stones, elixirs, secret cultivation techniques, and the like.
The advancement reward might very well be something more valuable, such as an inherited memory.
Therefore, according to Ling Xiao's estimation, the top ten wouldn't choose to pass, as it wasn't necessary.
The slot might end up in the hands of the people behind them.
"Listen up. Out of the 33 people, 17 will enter the next round, and in the next round, there will be nine people left. Of course, one of them will pass.
This is the key point. At this time, we will have a revival match.
Whoever defeats the person who passes will have the right to advance to the last round and become one of the top ten strongest people of the White Tiger Meet! "
"There really is a revival match? This is a great opportunity! "
A lot of the eliminated martial artists couldn't help but feel energized again. Many of them felt that it wasn't because they were too weak, but because they had encountered too strong opponents.
If there was such a revival match, it would be a bridge for them to cross from failure to success.
No matter how many people fought for it, they wouldn't give up.
"Alright, that's all for the rules. Now, let's start from the first place. Who wants to pass?"
Lawless looked at the contestants and said.
"I give up!"
Ling Xiao gave up without a second thought. Although he was injured, there was no need for him to pass.
"I give up too!"
Cold Plum also said.
Then, as Ling Xiao had said, the top ten all gave up on passing.
So, they changed it to drawing lots.
The one who drew the bye was Hong Yue of the Zhengyi School.
The little girl curled her lips, as if she still wanted to fight. She was really unhappy that she had drawn the bye.
After all, her cultivation was not weak. She was even stronger than Ling Xiao. It was just that her actual combat ability was poor, so she hoped to have more actual combat experience.
After the bye was drawn, the next step was naturally the official duel.
Out of the 32 people, 16 of them would be directly eliminated.
This was a very thrilling and exciting thing.
This was because there were thirteen top geniuses among the thirty-two people.
For many people, there were only three slots for them to compete for!
So far, no one in the audience thought that any of the 13 top geniuses would be eliminated.
After all, these 13 people were too strong.
"Ling Xiao, choose your opponent. As long as it's out of the top ten, you can choose anyone!"
Lawless looked at Ling Xiao. He really wanted to know who would be unlucky enough to be chosen by Ling Xiao, the madman.
In Lawless's mind, except for the 13 top geniuses, no one could be Ling Xiao's opponent. Being chosen by him meant being eliminated.
It was that cruel.
Not only him, but the others were also paying attention to Ling Xiao.
