After Han Qiusheng announced the results of the matches, the first round of the grand competition ended.
Of the 40 young martial artists participating in the grand competition, 20 were eliminated, and the 20 who won successfully advanced.
Han Qiusheng ascended the stage once again and took out 20 jade lots, starting to draw lots to decide the second round of matches.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Swish! Twenty jade lots flew into the sky, transforming into streams of azure light, interweaving and dancing.
Everyone looked up at that cluster of azure light, waiting for the results of the draw.
To the martial artists participating in the second round of the competition, the results of the draw were abnormally important.
This concerned whether they could enter the Sky Bearing Sect or not, and it concerned their fate!
Finally, the 20 jade lots were randomly divided into ten pairs, quietly floating in front of Han Qiusheng.
He took out two jade lots and announced the results of the draw loudly.
"First match, Jian Wusheng versus Qiu Yuanwu!"
"Second match, Ji Ke versus Northmont Buluo!"
"Third match, Wei Lingfeng versus Yin Jian!"
"Fourth match, Ji Ling versus Wulong!"
"Fifth match, Ji Tianxing versus Jiang Baiyu!"
"Sixth match …"
Han Qiusheng consecutively drew ten pairs of jade lots and announced the order and opponents of the 20 martial artists.
Every time he finished reading the names of a pair of martial artists, it would arouse a burst of discussion from the crowd in the plaza.
And when he read the fifth pair of martial artists' names, the tens of thousands of people in the plaza all cried out in surprise.
No one would have thought that Ji Tianxing would actually face off against Jiang Baiyu!
This battle was extremely important. The loser would be eliminated, and the winner would enter the top ten of the grand competition and successfully enter the Sky Bearing Sect as a disciple.
This way, between Ji Tianxing and Jiang Baiyu, one would definitely be eliminated, and the other would enter the Sky Bearing Sect.
This match was the battle of fate!
Yet, Ji Tianxing and Jiang Baiyu, these two people, were the most discussed topics in the past three days.
Jiang Baiyu failed to clear the formation, while Ji Tianxing successfully cleared the Illusionary Weapon Profound Formation.
When the Imperial City's citizens discussed this matter, they would all mention Jiang Baiyu's name, using his failure to set off Ji Tianxing's success!
Many people subconsciously felt that Ji Tianxing might be stronger than Jiang Baiyu. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to successfully break the formation.
However, this was only everyone's guess. Ji Tianxing and Jiang Baiyu had never fought head-on before.
And now, Han Qiaosheng's random drawing had tied the two of them together.
The tens of thousands of people in the square were all thinking, could this be the will of the heavens?
Was it destined that the two of them would have a fated battle?
Soon, Han Qiaosheng announced the order and candidates for the ten matches, and then loudly announced the start of the competition.
The two young martial artists stepped into the ring and stood ten meters away from each other. They were facing each other with murderous intent.
One of the blue-robed young men was called Qiu Yuanwu. He was a Sword Dao genius with some fame in the Clear Sky Kingdom. At such a young age, he already had the strength of the fourth level of the True Element Realm.
The other young man was dressed in black. His appearance was average, and there was a scar on his right cheek.
This person was none other than Jian Wusheng, a cultivation maniac who was obsessed with swords.
He had the strength of the sixth level of the True Element Realm. In the past, he had always been suppressed by Ji Tianxing and could only be ranked second in the Clear Sky Kingdom.
Now, among the twenty young martial artists, he was the number one expert on the surface!
Therefore, when Qiu Yuanwu found out that his opponent was Jian Wusheng, his heart was filled with helplessness and despair.
The difference in strength between the two was two levels. The result of the battle was obvious.
Jian Wusheng only used five moves and easily defeated Qiu Yuanwu.
Han Qiaosheng announced the result of the battle on the spot. Jian Wusheng successfully advanced to the top ten and obtained the qualifications to enter the Sky Pillar Sect.
Qiu Yuanwu was miserably eliminated. He could only walk down the ring with a heart full of regret. He left unwillingly.
The second round of the competition began.
The little princess's opponent was Beishan Buluo. He was the young master of the Imperial City's Beishan Aristocratic Family and was also a young genius.
He was also at the fourth level of the True Element Realm like the little princess. Their Sword Dao attainments were very exquisite.
However, the little princess unleashed her full strength in this battle and even used her trump card.
The two fought for a quarter of an hour and exchanged over a hundred moves before the outcome was decided.
The little princess defeated Beishan Buluo at the cost of seven sword strikes. She entered the top ten and obtained the qualifications to enter the Sky Pillar Sect.
After Han Qiaosheng announced the result, the little princess walked down the ring with a pale face. She hurriedly bandaged her wounds and consumed medicinal pills to recover her True Essence.
The third battle was even more exciting.
Wei Lingfeng, one of the Black and White Heroes, and his opponent, Yin Jian, both used their full strength and displayed incomparably exquisite sword techniques, causing the tens of thousands of spectators to cheer.
In the end, Wei Lingfeng defeated his opponent and obtained victory, smoothly entering the top ten.
When the fourth battle began, the little prince, Ji Ling, and Wu Long stepped onto the ring.
Wu Long was a youth around 20 years old. His strength had reached the fourth level of the True Element Realm.
As for Ji Ling's strength, it was still hard to unravel.
The two of them only exchanged over 20 moves on the stage, and Ji Ling easily defeated Wu Long.
The tens of thousands of people in the square cheered loudly for Ji Ling's victory. The crowd erupted into discussions.
Everyone did not dare to believe that Ji Ling's strength actually rose to such a degree in a short half a month. He could even easily defeat a fourth level True Element Realm martial artist.
This was simply too inconceivable!
Ji Tianxing had been observing Ji Ling and Wu Long's battle all along.
He could tell that Ji Ling was concealing his strength and did not use his full strength at all.
Ji Ling's true strength was extremely likely to have already reached the seventh level of the True Element Realm.
If he attacked with all his might, he only needed three to five moves and could defeat Wu Long.
This also made Ji Tianxing very certain that the God Seizing Bead was definitely refined by Ji Ling.
After all, the God Seizing Bead seized his lifetime's cultivation.
After Ji Ling completely refined the God Seizing Bead, he could possess True Element Realm Seventh Level strength.
Thinking up to here, Ji Tianxing clenched both fists tightly. A hint of icy-cold killing intent flashed across in his eyes.
"Ji Ling, oh, Ji Ling! The person who instigated Ling Yunfei to snatch the God Seizing Bead was you! The person who saved Ling Yunfei at the Apricot Manor that night was also you! "
"Turns out that you're the mastermind behind the scenes, the most despicable and sinister fellow!"
Very soon, the fifth match began.
Ji Tianxing and Jiang Baiyu ascended the stage at the same time, each hugging a treasure sword and confronting each other on the stage.
Ji Tianxing looked at Jiang Baiyu expressionlessly, his gaze cold.
He did not have any enmity with Jiang Baiyu. Fighting on the stage today was also dictated by fate.
But Jiang Baiyu glared at him with a cold smile on his face, his eyes surging with thick rage and killing intent.
"Ji Tianxing! Didn't expect that your opponent would actually be me, right?
"Fate is really miraculous! I really have to thank Deacon Han properly for letting you and me fight in front of everyone! "
Jiang Baiyu revealed a smug cold smile, his tone filled with anger.
"In these three days, you were in the limelight, while I became everyone's laughingstock!
"Ji Tianxing, do you know how much I hate you?
"Today, I'm going to defeat you fair and square in front of several tens of thousands of imperial city's citizens!
"I want to let everyone see that I, Jiang Baiyu, am the true Martial Dao genius!
"And you just barged through the grand array by luck! You're absolutely not my match! "
