After the second round of elimination, the top 50 would receive the title of "Earth Spirit," which was equivalent to a Viscount of the Sacred Dynasty. The rewards would be better, and they would get more benefits in the future.
In the third round, the 50 Earth Spirits were divided into two groups. Ten people from each group would advance to the next round.
The top 20 would receive the title of "Prodigy," which was equivalent to a Viscount of the Sacred Dynasty.
In the fourth round, the 20 Prodigies would be ranked according to the points system. The Six Young Masters of the Sacred Dynasty and the winner of the Martial Arts Festival would be determined.
The process sounded easy, but because most people were about the same strength, the first three rounds of elimination were really cruel.
No one wanted to lose, so they had to do their best.
In this way, it was not only about the strength of the teenagers, but also about their wisdom.
Sometimes, you had to give up the battles you should give up.
However, it was not easy to judge what battles you should give up and what battles you should not give up.
"Okay, the rules have been announced. Please go to the rostrum to receive your group number."
After the announcement, the head judge injected his Heavenly Essence Force into the announcement, making all the participating disciples stand up.
Everyone lined up and drew their number.
"Ten groups, I don't know what this means."
Ling Xiao looked at his number and said to the participating disciples of the Yuehua School.
"I'm in the second group."
Lan Yu 'er also drew a number.
"I'm in the fourth group."
"I'm in the sixth group."
Dai Yuling and Leng Hao's numbers were different from Ling Xiao's.
They were lucky that the four of them were not in the same group.
Long Chen drew the seventh group, which was different from the other people of the Yuehua School.
The five of them went to report to their respective referees, and they would compete on different stages.
Interestingly, Ling Xiao met a familiar person in the tenth group. It was Yan Liehuo, who had participated in the preliminaries with him.
There was no enmity between the two of them.
However, Yan Liehuo was not convinced by Ling Xiao.
During the preliminaries, Yan Liehuo didn't put Ling Xiao in his eyes at all. This was because he was ranked 51st in the previous preliminaries and had almost entered the top 50.
"Fine, since we're in the same group, let me see what level you, the number one genius of the preliminaries, can reach!"
Yan Liehuo smiled and went to the side to wait.
The group matches soon began. Ling Xiao didn't look at the other groups, because the battles at the beginning weren't that interesting. If he wanted to watch a good show, he would have to wait until the top 20 matches. That would be the real excitement.
On the side of group 10, the battle had already begun. The first to step onto the stage were two half-step Empyrean martial artists with 90% of their strength.
The two of them were equal in strength, so it was very difficult for them to fight. The battle lasted for more than a hundred moves before it finally ended.
One side won by a single move.
The first few battles seemed to be like this, but when Yan Liehuo appeared, the situation completely changed.
One move!
Just one move!
Yan Liehuo didn't even use his Crimson Flame Spear.
It wasn't that his opponent was too weak, but that he was too strong.
Ling Xiao also discovered that Yan Liehuo was now completely proficient in using the Crimson Flame Spear. Not only that, but his cultivation had also increased by a lot.
Compared to when he was in the True Devil Forbidden Zone, this person's strength was at least twice as strong.
Even the referee of group 10 nodded repeatedly, very satisfied with Yan Liehuo.
"This child was ranked 51st in the previous Martial Arts Festival finals. This time, it seems that he has a chance to go further. Not bad, not bad."
Yan Liehuo looked proudly at Ling Xiao.
However, he discovered that Ling Xiao wasn't paying attention to his situation at all. Instead, he was looking elsewhere.
Ling Xiao's position in group 10 was towards the back, so he took advantage of this opportunity to pay attention to the matches of the few people he paid more attention to.
In the Yuehua School, the first to attack was Leng Hao.
Leng Hao was now a half-step Empyrean with 80% of his strength, while his opponent was a half-step Empyrean with 90% of his strength.
In terms of cultivation, Leng Hao was inferior to his opponent.
However, the battle situation was completely different from the cultivation level.
Leng Hao also used only one move to knock his opponent out of the arena. His opponent might not even have seen clearly how he attacked.
Seeing this, Ling Xiao wasn't surprised, but the referee of Leng Hao's group was a little surprised. "The only person who is willing to fight for the Yuehua School is Ling Xiao. I didn't expect Leng Hao to be so good. He actually became the first warrior to easily win since the start of the competition."
Nodding with satisfaction, Ling Xiao looked to the other side.
Dai Yuling also defeated her opponent easily.
Lan Yu 'er also won easily.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He was very confident in his strength, but Dai Yuling and Leng Hao's cultivation levels weren't high enough. The contestants in this final were not weak.
It was quite good to be able to get off to a good start.
"Look, it's Dai Yuling from the Spiritual Medicine Villa. She's probably the strongest contestant in the competition so far."
"That's right. Dai Yuling was ranked in the top ten in the last Martial Arts Festival. It's a pity that she didn't advance to the Six Young Masters of the Sacred Dynasty."
"Her opponent isn't weak either. He was ranked 31st in the last Martial Arts Festival. He should be able to hold on for some time."
As soon as this person finished speaking, the battle on the arena was already over.
Dai Yaoling merely blew a breath of air, and her opponent fell unconscious on the ground.
"God! Is this the strength of the top ten? She's too strong! She defeated her opponent in one breath. "
Many of the young disciples who were watching were dumbfounded.
The warrior who was ranked 31st in the last Martial Arts Festival was probably at the level of a 90% half-step Heavenly Venerable. However, he couldn't even withstand a single blow from Dai Yuling.
More importantly, Dai Yuling obviously didn't use her full strength.
"It seems that the top ten contestants in the last Martial Arts Festival are all terrifying. It's really a tragedy for other warriors to encounter them."
Everyone shook their heads. In their opinion, not only were the Six Young Masters of the Sacred Dynasty, but even the top ten contestants in the last Martial Arts Festival were much stronger than the rest.
It could even be said that they weren't on the same level.
"Dai Yuling? Dai Yuling! "
Ling Xiao silently recited this girl's name.
He always felt that Dai Yuling had an unbearable past. These two girls' names were so similar, and they looked sixty to seventy percent similar. He definitely wouldn't believe that they didn't know each other.
As for Dai Yuling's strength, he didn't care much about it.
His only opponent was the Holy Son, Hime Myung-kō. He didn't put the rest in his eyes at all.
It wasn't that he was arrogant, but it was simply bullying to fight a Heaven Vein Realm martial artist with a Heaven Realm cultivation.
If he still lost, he might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself.
"Ling Xiao, Wang Siru, come on!"
Ling Xiao originally wanted to watch a little longer, but when he heard his name, he went on stage and looked at his opponent.
Wang Siru, a mature Heaven Vein Realm martial artist. She was very strong and ranked 42nd in the last Martial Arts Festival.
Her weapon was a crescent blade.
