At the instant Duan Lingtian finished speaking, his figure shook and abruptly flashed out.
Spirit Serpent Movement Technique!
His entire body seemed to have transformed into a spirit serpent as he agilely flashed onto the combat ring and descended beside Zuo Qing.
Duan Lingtian used his actions to express his attitude …
He didn't forfeit!
He wanted to participate in the second round of the outer court martial competition!
"Duan Lingtian actually really wants to participate in the second round of the outer court martial competition, isn't he afraid of death?"
Some of the Megrez Peak disciples were completely stunned when they saw this scene.
During these past three months, every time Shi Hao came to Megrez Peak, they clearly felt the monstrous hatred Shi Hao revealed towards Duan Lingtian …
Shi Hao wished for nothing more than to burn Duan Lingtian's bones and scatter his ashes!
So, as far as they were concerned, Duan Lingtian's insistence on participating in the second round of the outer court disciple test was simply taking his life as a joke.
They didn't look favorably upon Duan Lingtian.
After all, Shi Hao was a seventh level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple, and was even the number one disciple in the Seven Star Sword Sect's outer court!
"Duan Lingtian, your Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll will soon be mine."
When Zhao Lin saw Duan Lingtian ascending the combat ring, the gloominess on his face vanished without a trace, and replacing it was a smile from his scheme succeeding.
He suddenly felt that everything he'd done in secret wasn't in vain.
Everything was worth it!
"Duan Lingtian, why did you come up?"
Zuo Qing looked at Duan Lingtian who was beside her, and her beautiful brows slightly frowned. "You don't have to pay attention to Hu Xue Feng's words at all."
Duan Lingtian knew that Zuo Qing only said this because she was concerned about him, and at the same time warmth arose in his heart, he lightly smiled. "Senior Sister, I didn't come up because of what he said … I originally intended to participate in the second round of the outer court martial competition. Even if he didn't say a word, I would still come up. "
Zuo Qing was stunned, and when she saw Duan Lingtian's incomparably firm gaze, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
As far as she was concerned, Duan Lingtian was like a newborn calf that wasn't afraid of a tiger!
Not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth!
"Exactly. Duan Lingtian, you're still considered to be a man. "
Hu Xue Feng looked at Duan Lingtian, and a cold light flickered within his eyes. "But, whether you're able to survive the second round will depend on whether you have the ability or not … In any case, if you're against me, if you're, if you're against me, I'm Lingtian Lingtian.....
Duan Ling Tian completely disregarded Hu Xue Feng's provocation, and his gaze descended onto the nearby Shi Hao.
Shi Hao's twisted and ferocious face was now twisted together. A pair of triangular eyes flickered with dense killing intent as they stared at him.
"" "" of the Lingtian Lingtian Peak.
Meanwhile, the Peak Master of Mizar Peak, Zheng Fan, sized Duan Ling Tian up from top to bottom with interest. "I've heard of your deeds since long ago … But, although you're able to kill a sixth level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple, you might not be able to defeat a seventh level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple. So long as you're able to survive today, then in the future, the Seven Star Sword Sect's stage will be yours alone. "
Zheng Fan's words were filled with praise towards Duan Lingtian.
But it also caused Hu Xue Feng's face to sink, and the killing intent in his eyes grew even stronger.
As for Shi Hao, he didn't know if it was true or not. As far as he was concerned, what Zheng Fan said was equivalent to not saying anything.
Because, it was absolutely impossible for him to allow Duan Lingtian to survive today.
"Peak Master, you're too kind."
Duan Lingtian was still neither servile nor overbearing when facing Zheng Fan.
Zheng Fan glanced deeply at Duan Lingtian, then looked at the crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples on Mizar Platform. "Now, are there any outer court disciples that have obtained the qualifications for the second round of the outer court martial competition that will ascend the combat ring and participate in today's outer court martial competition?"
After waiting for a while, no one ascended the combat ring.
Zheng Fan flicked his sleeve and announced in a loud voice. "The second round of the outer court martial competition officially begins!"
"The rules of the second round of the outer court martial competition are extremely simple."
Zheng Fan looked at Duan Lingtian and the other 28 seventh level Origin Core Stage outer court disciples, then slowly said, "I'll let all of you draw lots … There's a total of 29 numbered lots, and the person that draws lot number one can skip two rounds and temporarily be ranked in the top 10."
"14 people will be chosen from the other 28 people, then another seven people will be chosen to temporarily be ranked in the top 10."
"In this way, there will be eight people that will temporarily be ranked in the top 10."
"The seven people that were eliminated earlier will draw lots once more, and the person that draws lot number one will temporarily be ranked in the top 10."
"At that time, there will only be one empty spot remaining in the top 10, and the last person will be chosen from the other six people to fill this empty spot."
"After the 10 people that are temporarily ranked in the top 10 are decided, if the remaining 19 people are unconvinced of any one of them … You can issue a challenge, and so long as you're able to defeat your opponent, or even kill your opponent, then you can replace your opponent and be ranked in the top 10."
"When no one issues another challenge, the top 10 people will be ranked in the top 10 of the outer court martial competition this time, and will be able to obtain the rewards bestowed by the sect!"
"Because the rewards of the top 10 people are all different, so the specific ranking of the top 10 has to be decided in the end … The person that's ranked in the first place will obtain an additional Profound Origin Fruit!"
"Now, is there anything that all of you don't understand?"
Zheng Fan looked at Duan Lingtian and the others as he asked.
Duan Lingtian and the others shook their heads, as Zheng Fan's introduction earlier was extremely clear and orderly.
"The person that draws lot number one at the beginning is undoubtedly the person with the best luck … .And is able to skip the first two battles and temporarily be ranked in the top 10."
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart, and was filled with interest towards lot number one.
Of course, even if one drew lot number one at the beginning, it didn't mean that one would have no worries later on, as there would still be people that issued challenges later on.
It was only saving some effort at the beginning.
In next to no time, an outer court elder of Mizar Peak walked forward in large strides and placed the lot box that was prepared on the ground.
"There's a total of 29 lot numbers within, all of you come forward and draw your own lot."
The Peak Master of Mizar Peak, Zheng Fan, looked at Duan Lingtian and the others as he spoke indifferently.
In next to no time, a few outer court disciples that were near the lot box took the lead to draw their lot numbers.
Duan Lingtian and Zuo Qing walked side by side and arrived at the side of the lot box as well. Duan Lingtian lightly smiled to Zuo Qing. "Senior Sister, you go first."
Zuo Qing nodded and wasn't courteous as she directly took out a lot number.
Lot number nine.
Duan Lingtian placed his hand into the lot box as well. Right at this moment, he instinctively stretched out his Spiritual Force and fused it into the lot box ….
Originally, Duan Lingtian didn't hold any hope, as his Spiritual Force wasn't eyes after all, and it was unable to see the number on the lot.
But when his Spiritual Force stretched in, he instead clearly sensed that amongst the lot numbers within the lot box, the aura of one lot seemed to be different from the others ….
"Could it be lot number one?"
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart, and he directly grabbed onto that lot and took it out.
After looking carefully.
It really was lot number one!
Looking at the number on lot number one, Duan Lingtian came to a sudden understanding. No wonder his Spiritual Force felt the aura of lot number one was different from the other lots. So it turned out that the number on lot number one was written in red ink, whereas the numbers on the other lots were written in black ink.
Presumably, the reason lot number one was written in red ink was for the sake of distinguishing it better from the other lots.
It was precisely because of this that Duan Lingtian drew lot number one without any suspense.
"Lot … Lot number one?"
Zuo Qing stood by Duan Lingtian's side, and she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice when she saw the lot number Duan Lingtian took out.
Lot number one?
Zuo Qing's low exclamation spread throughout the silent Mizar Peak, and everyone heard it.
"F * * k! It can't be, right? Duan Lingtian's luck is so good? Out of the 29 lots, he drew lot number one? "
"This luck is too heaven defying!"
"Hmph! It's only a coincidence. Moreover, so what if he drew lot number one? He's only temporarily ranked in the top 10 … If his strength isn't sufficient, he'll still be eliminated later on. "
"That's true."
…
The crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
Some people sighed with emotion at Duan Lingtian's luck, and some people felt that it wasn't a big deal even if Duan Lingtian drew lot number one.
"Lot number one?"
The Peak Master of Mizar Peak, Zheng Fan, was slightly surprised at Duan Lingtian's luck.
"Hmph! Lot number one … "
However, there were two people on the combat ring that had evil sneers on the corners of their mouths.
It was precisely Shi Hao and Hu Xue Feng.
"You can only blame your luck for drawing lot number one. So long as I admit defeat and don't enter the top 10, at that time, I can directly challenge you … and even kill you! "
Hu Xue Feng looked at Duan Lingtian and thought in his heart, and a ruthless sheen jumped about within his eyes.
Shi Hao's triangular eyes were suffused with traces of coldness as well.
His current thoughts were exactly the same as Hu Xue Feng's.
"Duan Lingtian, your luck doesn't seem to be very good."
Meanwhile, He Dong had drawn lot number that belonged to him as well, and he looked at Duan Lingtian and shook his head.
He clearly saw the killing intent and excitement that was emitted from Shi Hao and Hu Xue Feng's eyes when they looked at Duan Lingtian …
As far as he was concerned.
On the surface, Duan Lingtian obtaining lot number one was due to good luck.
But in reality, it gave Shi Hao and Hu Xue Feng the opportunity to directly challenge him.
Duan Lingtian naturally understood the meaning behind He Dong's words, but he didn't mind and only smiled faintly. "What should come, will come."
He Dong didn't expect that Duan Lingtian could still be so calm at this time. He deeply looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Duan Lingtian, if you can survive today … I, He Dong, will become friends with you."
Duan Lingtian wasn't old, but he had such an open-minded temperament, which shocked He Dong.
It made He Dong feel admiration from the bottom of his heart!
Duan Lingtian smiled faintly, which could be considered as a response.
"Duan Lingtian, if Shi Hao and Hu Xue Feng challenge you, just admit defeat."
Zuo Qing looked at Duan Lingtian and said somewhat worriedly.
"Zuo Qing, if he admits defeat, then he wouldn't be Duan Lingtian."
Before Duan Lingtian could open his mouth, He Dong had already taken a step forward and said to Zuo Qing.
Duan Lingtian smiled. "He Dong, you seem to understand me very well?"
"I can't say that I understand you, but I can see that you're not the kind of person who runs away at the last minute … Moreover, I see confidence in your eyes."
