The battle for the rookie group lasted for nineteen days.
After the final list was decided, everyone rested for three days before continuing with the second round of the Seven Prefectures Feast …
The first round was the rookie group battle.
The second round was the elite group battle.
The rules for the elite group battle were the same as the rookie group battle. They followed the same pattern and eliminated half of the participants.
"Duan Lingtian, you won't get the word 'ugly' this time, right?"
Zhen Pingfan looked at Duan Lingtian and asked with a smile when everyone was present, including Elder Lin Donglai of the Flame Howl Sect, who was in charge of hosting the Seven Prefectures Feast.
He did not send a telepathic message and said it directly.
Instantly, the group from Chunyang School looked at Duan Lingtian and either laughed or tried to hold back their laughter.
Duan Lingtian could not help but roll his eyes when he heard that. "Elder Zhen, the word is not important. The most important thing is to advance."
At this moment, Lin Donglai announced that the battle for the elite group of the Seven Prefectures Feast was about to begin and that it was time to distribute the engraved tokens.
"All eight hundred and sixteen prodigies are ready," Lin Donglai announced loudly.
Lin Donglai said in a clear voice, "Take out the token from the rookie competition. Extend your God Power through the token, and you can use the new token to send it over. The second round of the elite group battle will be based on the new token. "
"This token has eight hundred and sixteen words. It will not be the same as the previous one."
With that, Lin Donglai gave the 816 prodigies a few breaths' time to prepare. Then, he threw out a bunch of tokens.
There were eight hundred and sixteen prodigies in total, which corresponded to eight hundred and sixteen tokens.
Of course, no words could be seen on the tokens this time. The words would only appear when the prodigies infused their divine power into them.
As for making the words appear in the air, this situation would not happen because Lin Donglai was there. He could completely control this and prevent the people from revealing the words on the token in advance.
Almost as soon as Lin Donglai threw out the token, Duan Lingtian and the others moved. They extended their divine power through the token in their hands and pulled one of the many tokens toward them.
This time, Duan Lingtian didn't hesitate like before, and he directly snatched a command token and brought it back.
"I hesitated for a moment earlier, and in the end, a token with the word 'ugly' appeared … Now that I've done it decisively, the words on the token should be more normal, right?"
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"Hmm?"
The moment the token entered Duan Ling Tian's hand, he noticed that many of the Pure Sun Sect's disciples were looking at him. Even Zhen Pingfan was looking at him as though he wanted to stir up trouble.
"Duan Lingtian, what are the words on the token this time?"
Zhen Pingfan asked with a smile.
The others also looked a little curious.
When Duan Ling Tian heard this, he said indifferently, "This time, I don't plan to reveal the words before it's my turn. In any case, when a word is called, if only one person goes up and no one goes up after a long time, it'll definitely be my turn."
"It doesn't matter if the words on the token don't appear.
"Even if they appear, I can confirm it when the time comes."
With the previous experience, Duan Lingtian didn't intend to reveal the words on the token this time.
Although he didn't think there would be a problem with the words on the token this time, he still didn't intend to reveal them …
"Don't you all want to see it?
I won't give you a chance!
Didn't you laugh so hard just now?
This time, if I don't let you see it, let's see how you laugh! "
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the crowd was naturally disappointed. Zhen Pingfan said unhappily, "Can't you satisfy everyone's curiosity?
"When you were in the rookie group, you were unlucky and got the word 'ugly' … This time, it might not be a 'special' word."
Zhen Pingfan emphasized the word 'special'.
However, Duan Lingtian just ignored him.
He remembered that when he got the word 'ugly' earlier, Elder Zhen was the one who smiled the brightest!
Zhen Pingfan tried to persuade Duan Lingtian again, but he could only give up when he saw how stubborn Duan Lingtian was. "You rascal, if you do this, you might get another strange word!"
"I'll wait and see what kind of word you get!"
Zhen Pingfan snorted.
After he said that, he stopped trying to persuade Duan Lingtian. His eyes followed Duan Lingtian's gaze and looked ahead. There were already two people fighting in the arena.
One of them was from Tung Leng Province. He was a prodigy from the Martial Dragon Heavenly Sect.
This prodigy from the Martial Dragon Heavenly Sect had a strong performance in the rookie group. He defeated his opponent within ten moves.
His opponent wasn't weak either.
The reason for that was because the opponent that he had eliminated had challenged others later on and also obtained victory, entering the Rookie List.
'These two will have no problem entering the elite group.'
Duan Lingtian could not help but think to himself when he saw that the two of them were evenly matched after exchanging more than ten moves.
In the end, after a hundred moves, the prodigy from the Martial Dragon Heavenly Sect managed to defeat his opponent with a strategy based on his combat experience. Naturally, his opponent had a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
"Despicable!"
Although the prodigy from the Martial Dragon Heavenly Sect was cursing, the others did not think that the prodigy from the Martial Dragon Heavenly Sect had gone overboard. After all, he did not use any methods that violated the rules.
Then, Lin Donglai spoke again, and two more people went into the arena.
This time, the disparity was too great. They finished their battle within twenty moves.
…
When it came to the twelfth battle, the prodigy from the Chunyang School who had not made a move until now finally moved.
Whoosh!
The prodigy from the Chunyang School's Hidden Sword Faction, Ye Qicai, stepped forward.
Ye Qicai's performance in the rookie group was stunning. He defeated his opponent within two moves. Moreover, his opponent was not an ordinary prodigy. When he was revived in the rookie group, he defeated his opponent within ten moves and regained his position.
Now, Ye Qicai had a calm expression on his face. It was as though he was not affected by his background.
"Tung Leng Province, Wang Yishan from the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness!"
Ye Qicai's opponent was the first to announce his background. At the same time, he grinned at Ye Qicai. "Brother, I see that you're from the Chunyang School. Speaking of which, we're both from Tung Leng Province.
"I've seen you fight before. I'm no match for you.
"However, I don't want to embarrass the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness, so I hope that you'll show me some mercy."
Ye Qicai's opponent was a young man. He was looking at Ye Qicai with a smile, but deep in his eyes, there was a strong sense of helplessness.
He had seen Ye Qicai's strength. He was no match for him.
Moreover, long before the Seven Prefectures Feast, he had heard of Ye Qicai, the prodigy from the Chunyang School. He was comparable to the most outstanding prodigies under the age of ten thousand in the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness.
"Chunyang School, Tung Leng Province, Ye Qicai," Ye Qicai said indifferently.
Ye Qicai said indifferently. His face looked calm, but deep inside his eyes, there was a flash of coldness.
"They're both from Tung Leng Province!"
"Haha … this is going to be interesting!"
…
Every time, as long as people from the same prefectures faced each other, many people from other prefectures would be happy to watch.
It would be even more interesting if people from the same power met each other.
"People from the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness?"
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow. At the same time, he felt sorry for Ye Qicai. He probably didn't know that Ye Qicai had a blood feud with the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness.
Otherwise, he would have admitted defeat.
"Uncle Ye, will you be okay?"
Zhen Pingfan asked Ye Chenfeng in a low voice. His expression was serious.
"I'm fine."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said calmly, "Lin Donglai isn't very strong, but it's not difficult for him to deal with a sudden situation between two juniors."
"That's true."
Zhen Pingfan nodded. "No matter what, Lin Donglai is still a medium Emperor God."
"What's wrong?"
Liu Fenggu, who was sitting at the side, heard their conversation.
Ye Chenfeng glanced at him and smiled. "Senior Brother Liu, it's nothing … It's just that this grand-disciple of mine already knows who killed his father and his family."
Back then, when Ye Chenfeng brought Ye Qicai back to Chunyang School, all the higher-ups of Chunyang School, including Liu Fenggu, knew about Ye Qicai's background.
Ye Qicai's family was killed by the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness.
Liu Fenggu's expression changed slightly when he heard Ye Chenfeng's words. "Didn't you promise not to tell him the truth back then? If the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness finds out … "
"I'm not the one who told him."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head. "He found out himself.
"Speaking of which, it's quite a coincidence. His surviving relatives were still in the city where we stopped."
"His mother, and his twin brother."
Ye Chenfeng's face was filled with emotion.
When Liu Fenggu heard Ye Chenfeng's words, he could not help but look deeply at Ye Chenfeng.
He did not believe that this was a coincidence.
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
This must have been arranged by Ye Chenfeng in advance.
However, when he thought about Ye Chenfeng's current strength, he did not say anything more. Even if the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness knew about this, there was nothing they could do to Ye Chenfeng.
If they forced Ye Chenfeng into a corner, he could just go to the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness and kill a few God Emperors.
Moreover, judging from Ye Chenfeng's words, it was obvious that he had already thought of a backup plan.
He would not leave any evidence that could be used against him.
"Why bother? He's still young. What if he's destroyed by such a big grudge? "
Liu Fenggu sighed.
"One can only rise above others after suffering the hardest."
Ye Chenfeng smiled. "Although it was my disciple, Ye Tong's idea, I still agree with it."
"Senior Brother Liu, you must have noticed Yang Qianye from Ping Sheng's branch, right?"
Ye Chenfeng asked with a smile.
"Yes."
Liu Fenggu nodded. "I didn't expect Yang Qianye to be so talented. He has already become a middle-level God Emperor. Moreover, it seems like he has already consolidated his cultivation base. "
In Liu Fenggu's opinion, this was a little unbelievable.
"Senior Brother Liu, do you know why Yang Qianye was able to rise so quickly in such a short time? It's because his father died. He wants to avenge his father, so he urgently needs to become stronger?"
Ye Chenfeng asked again.
