After a full twelve days, the first round of the Seven Prefectures Feast, the first round of the rookie group competition, finally came to an end.
However, that was only the end of the first round.
After the first round, there was still the second round, the challenge round!
Every person who was defeated in the first round could choose to challenge their opponent in this round. Each person only had one chance to challenge.
"Until yesterday, after twelve days, the first round of the Rookie Group finally came to an end.
Starting today, the second round of the Rookie Group will begin. "
In the air, Elder Lin Donglai of the Profound Jade Mansion's Flame Howl Sect announced with a solemn expression, "In the second round, those who lost in the first round will have one chance to challenge their opponent.
You can think of it as the Battle of Resurrection. "
"Next up, those who have lost the first round but still wish to challenge again, raise the jade slip that I gave you earlier above your head … If you don't wish to challenge again, you can choose to infuse your divine energy into the jade slip and destroy it. This will also be considered as you giving up on your right to challenge this round!"
As Lin Donglai spoke, a group of people raised their jade scrolls.
As for those who destroyed their jade scrolls, very few of them did so.
"Now, I will hand out the numbered tokens and challenge you according to the number on it."
In the next instant, as Lin Donglai spoke again, the tokens were thrown into the air one by one. Then, as if they were attracted by the jade scrolls in everyone's hands, they flew directly over.
Everyone who raised their jade scrolls received a token.
"Now, those who received the number one token, come up and choose your opponent. I've reminded you before that if there's an opponent in the first round, remember the words on the token in their hand. When you challenge in the second round, you can directly report the words on their token. "
In the first round, two people who received the same engraved words would fight against each other.
The winner would leave behind their token.
The loser would hand over their token.
"Those who received the number one token are pretty lucky."
Duan Lingtian stood among the people from the Chunyang School. He sat cross-legged in the air and looked into the distance. However, he did not cultivate as hard as he did a few days ago.
In this round, the person who went up first would definitely have an advantage.
After all, he could choose his opponent at will.
As for the later contestants, they were limited in their choice of opponents.
The last person to enter the arena had very few opponents to choose from … This was because a small number of people had given up. If no one gave up, the last person to enter the arena would have no choice but to challenge the person who was left behind.
"Duan Lingtian."
Suddenly, Zhen Pingfan's voice sounded in Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian looked at Zhen Pingfan.
Zhen Pingfan sent him a sound transmission. "A few days ago, even though you were at the Seven Prefectures Feast, you were still working hard to cultivate … but starting from a few days ago, you stopped cultivating."
"It seems that he has made a breakthrough in his cultivation?"
It was no wonder that Zhen Pingfan made such a guess. A few days ago, Duan Lingtian was really too serious. Even though he was at the Seven Prefectures Feast, he was still working hard to cultivate and did not even watch a few matches.
When Duan Lingtian heard Zhen Pingfan's words, he could not help but sigh at Zhen Pingfan's sharp eyes. Then, he smiled and sent a sound transmission. "It's just a small improvement."
"If you want to improve further, it's not something that can be improved in a short period of time."
"Therefore, it's better to relax appropriately."
"After all, there's a way to relax."
When he heard Duan Lingtian's words, Zhen Pingfan gave him a deep look. Are you sure it's just a small improvement?
When he thought about how Duan Lingtian had defeated Duan Lingtian of the Moqi Family, Zhen Pingfan's heart trembled … with that as a foundation, would there be anyone in the Seven Prefectures Feast who could be a match for Duan Lingtian?
At this moment, the person who had obtained the number one token also entered the arena.
The person who had obtained the number one token was a young prodigy from the Underworld Mansion. Duan Lingtian had some impression of him.
This was because he had fought with him the day before yesterday.
After 100 moves, he was defeated by his opponent.
With his strength, it would not be a problem for him to enter the rookie group. The reason he was eliminated in the first round was because his opponent was too strong.
"He's in the rookie group. It's a sure thing."
Everything that happened next was just as Duan Lingtian had guessed. This prodigy from the Underworld Mansion, who was considered quite strong, picked a weaker opponent and defeated him within 30 moves. He replaced his opponent and became a member of the rookie group.
Now that he had succeeded in his challenge, no one else could challenge him in the future. It could be said that he had passed the first round of the rookie group competition.
"I wonder … if anyone will challenge me."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
After thinking about it, Duan Lingtian began to look forward to it.
"Duan Lingtian!"
At this moment, a cold voice transmission entered Duan Lingtian's ears. The voice sounded familiar, but he could not recall where he had heard it before.
However, when he tilted his head slightly, Duan Lingtian saw who had sent him the voice transmission.
It was Moqi Hong.
The number one prodigy among the younger generation of the Moqi family.
He was the number one prodigy among the younger generation in Tung Leng Province.
When Duan Lingtian looked at Moqi Hong and met his eyes, Moqi Hong continued to send him the voice transmission. "I originally planned to pretend to be defeated by someone else in the first round. Then, I would challenge you and defeat you so that you would not be able to compete for the top ten spots for Chunyang School.
"However, after thinking about it, I decided to spare you this time. I don't want Chunyang School to act out of desperation. "
The current Chunyang School was no longer the Chunyang School of the past.
Even if Moqi Hong saw Duan Lingtian, Ye Chenfeng, and Chunyang School as his enemies, he had to take this into consideration.
When Duan Lingtian heard Moqi Hong's voice transmission, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at Moqi Hong deeply. The corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile as he replied indifferently through Voice Transmission, "Based on what you said, it seems like you've made some progress in the past ten years?
However, I don't think you're afraid of Chunyang School just because you don't want to fight with me at this time, right?
You and the Moqi family don't dare to take the risk, right? "
Duan Ling Tian's words exposed Moqi Hong's situation, causing Moqi Hong's expression to turn grim. He did not say anything else after he said some harsh words.
"Duan Lingtian, I'll definitely defeat you in the top ten ranking battle!"
Moqi Hong's voice was extremely cold.
"I'll wait and see."
Duan Lingtian replied indifferently. At the same time, he wondered how much Moqi Hong's strength had improved. How could he be so confident?
However, even if Moqi Hong had improved, he was not afraid.
After all, Moqi Hong's improvement might not be as great as his!
Even if Moqi Hong's improvement was greater than his, it would be impossible for him to defeat him.
At the same time, the challenges in the field were also in full swing. After Number One's challenge was successful, Number Two's challenge was also successful.
Number Three's challenge was also successful.
…
When Number Seven went up and chose an opponent, both of them were evenly matched. However, he was still defeated after exchanging more than 100 moves.
He was also the first person to fail in his challenge.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian heard many Chunyang School's disciples talking.
"Number Seven has tried his best. He's not strong to begin with. Although the opponent he chose is not strong, he's obviously weaker."
"I suddenly thought of something … If the weaker person was challenged by an even weaker person, wouldn't this round be a sure thing?"
"That makes sense."
"In this round, there will definitely be people with decent strength who have a chance to enter the rookie group. However, because of this situation, they will not be able to enter the rookie group."
"That's not very fair, right?"
"There's nothing unfair about it … Luck is actually considered a part of strength. Just like us, even if our natural talent and comprehension are similar, would our results be the same? That might not be the case! "
"Indeed. Moreover, those with strong strength will definitely be able to enter the rookie group this time. There's no doubt about it. Those who have strength but can't enter are those who are slightly stronger than the average person but have bad luck. "
…
The second segment of the rookie group, which was the challenge segment and the revival segment, lasted for an entire seven days.
After seven days, the rookie group's name list was completely confirmed.
There were a total of 816 people.
In other words, there were a total of 1,600 people participating in the Seven Prefectures Feast this time. Half of them were currently on the rookie group's name list.
"There are still many people who are not convinced."
Just like what Duan Ling Tian had heard from the group of Pure Sun Sect's disciples seven days ago, when the final list of the Rookie Group was announced, many people were not convinced. They felt that some people who were weaker than them had been challenged before, and the people who challenged them were even weaker, to the extent that they did not even have the chance to challenge them.
Otherwise, they would definitely be able to replace them.
Because many people were not convinced, they gathered together. The number of people was not small, more than a hundred people.
Moreover, these people gathered together to look for the host of the Seven Prefectures Feast this time, the Elder of the Flame Howl Sect, Lin Donglai …
However, Lin Donglai only had one sentence for these people:
"If any of you have the confidence to enter the top thirty, I'll give you a spot on the rookie list."
"However, if I give you a spot and you still don't enter the top thirty … then destroy your own cultivation, what do you think?"
As soon as Lin Donglai said this, he immediately persuaded everyone to back down.
Of course, among these people, there were still some who were not convinced and wanted to seek help from their elders … However, their elders did not pay any attention to them.
The rules of the Seven Prefectures Feast were not something that happened in a day or two. They had long known about it, so why would they stand up for the juniors?
Currently, the Seven Prefectures Feast was being held in the Mysterious Jade Prefecture.
If they interfered this time …
In the future, if the Seven Prefectures Feast was held in their prefecture and the same situation occurred, what would they do if others came to them?
Therefore, this storm, which was originally not a small one, quickly calmed down.
"Luck is indeed a part of one's strength."
Duan Lingtian deeply agreed with this point. Even if he came from the mundane realm, he did not dare to say that he relied on his talent, comprehension, and hard work.
Luck played a large part in it.
Part of the reason he was where he was today was also due to luck …
