"Next, number four versus number thirteen!"
The middle-aged custodian announced.
Two more peerless geniuses were sent onto the stage. Without further ado, the battle began.
Both of them were geniuses who had won four battles, but one of them had reached the early-stage of the ninth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm, while the other was still at the peak eighth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm.
Naturally, the ninth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm geniuses had an absolute advantage and defeated their opponents.
The battles continued as the geniuses stepped forward one after another.
Lu Ming discovered that some of the geniuses possessed outstanding cultivations. One of them had reached the late-stage of the ninth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm, while the other had reached the mid-stage of the ninth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm.
Xuan Feng was sent onto the stage too. His cultivation had improved tremendously as well, reaching the mid-stage of the ninth-layer Martial Ancestor Realm, allowing him to enter the second round with an absolute advantage.
Two hours later, the eight pairs of geniuses had finished their battles. The eight geniuses who had entered the second round had all appeared.
Of course, including Lu Ming who had received a bye, there were nine of them in total.
The remaining eight geniuses were thus eliminated.
The middle-aged Enforcer took their jade tablets back, leaving only the jade tablets numbered one to eight, and of course, the jade tablet with the free pass.
The middle-aged custodian waved his hand and emitted his Qi, which encapsulated the nine badges and erased all traces on them.
This was to prevent anyone from tampering with the badges and leaving their auras or marks.
Following this, the nine badges floated in the air while emitting a faint glow.
"The rules are the same as before. There are eight badges numbered one to eight. Draw lots to determine your opponent. Number one against number eight, number two against number seven, and so on. The one who draws the bye jade badge will proceed to the next round."
The middle-aged custodian announced.
"I'll go first."
Zang Sheng was still extremely confident. He waved his hand and summoned a badge into his hand.
Following this, Lu Ming, Qiu Changkong, Xuan Feng, and the others each drew a badge.
"Who will draw the bye jade badge this time?"
In the spectator seats, everyone's eyes were bright and they were very curious.
Although the winner of the bye jade badge might not necessarily secure the throne of the Divine Guards of the Eastern Sky, it would greatly reduce the consumption of Qi and stamina, making the next round easier.
On the stage, the crowd checked their badges.
Lu Ming also flipped the jade token to take a look. He was instantly stunned at one glance.
Bye, another bye.
Lu Ming actually drew the Bye Jade Card again.
"My luck is too good! I've drawn the Bye Jade Token twice in a row!"
Lu Ming mumbled, somewhat speechless.
To be honest, if he could, he really did not want to get the bye jade token. If he always got the bye, how could he torture Qiu Changkong?
"Now, give me your numbers!"
The middle-aged man said.
"I'm number six!"
Zang Sheng was the first to speak.
"I'm number five!"
Qiu Changkong said.
"I'm number one!"
"I'm number three!"
The remaining people reported their numbers one by one.
As the number of people decreased, there were only two people left.
One was Lu Ming, and the other was a fatty with big eyes.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them.
"There are only two people left. That Lu Ming hasn't reported his number yet. Could it be that he's going to get a bye again?"
"That shouldn't be possible. How could he draw the empty round card twice in a row?"
…
"I'm number 8!"
While everyone was discussing, the fatty with big eyes opened the jade token. He looked at Lu Ming with a complicated gaze and reported his number loudly!
Immediately …
Swish, swish …
Countless gazes fell on Lu Ming.
"Nest, it's him again, it's actually him again!"
"It's really him, how is this possible? Did he run into dog shit luck? "
"He really ran into dog shit luck. After drawing the Bye Jade Token, he directly entered the third round."
The audience was in an uproar as they discussed animatedly.
In the elder's area, Lu Xiu was also a little stunned.
How could this be?
Didn't Lu Ming directly enter the third round?
Countless envious gazes fell on Lu Xiu.
If Lu Ming's luck was good, didn't that mean Lu Xiu's luck was good as well?
Although it was impossible for Lu Ming to obtain the throne of the Eastern Sky Divine Guards, the higher his ranking, the higher Lu Xiu's reward would be.
How could they not be jealous?
Jian Fengyun, Jiang Hongwen, and the rest were dumbfounded.
Even the middle-aged law enforcer looked at Lu Ming in astonishment.
Lu Ming smiled bitterly, rubbed his nose, and opened his jade token. He said helplessly, "I got the Bye Jade Token!"
As expected! It's him again!
Everyone roared in their hearts.
"Alright, now that the drawing of lots is over, the battle begins, number one against number eight!"
The middle-aged law enforcer announced.
Two figures walked to the center. One of them was the big-eyed fatty, and the other was Xuan Feng.
The others walked to the edge of the stage.
"Lu Ming, you're really lucky. However, it's useless to rely on luck. In the end, you still have to rely on your abilities. The higher you climb with luck now, the worse you'll fall in the future without any abilities!"
Qiu Changkong walked past Lu Ming and said coldly.
"Is that so? Let me tell you, I got the Bye Jade Token because your luck is good. I'll let you be rampant for a few more rounds. "
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
"Hmph, you're good at talking."
Killing intent flashed across Qiu Changkong's eyes. He walked to the side and did not say anything else.
"Qiu Changkong, I hope you can walk to the end. Otherwise, how can I beat you? "
Lu Ming thought to himself.
Boom!
A great battle broke out in the center of the stage.
"Yuan Feng Sword Art!"
"Gallop of the Barbarian Statue!"
Two loud shouts were heard.
Xuan Feng's sword Qi swept across the sky, as if it could cut the sky. It was extremely terrifying.
As for the big-eyed fatty, his combat strength was also very strong. He was like a giant barbarian statue, charging around and destroying Xuan Feng's sword Qi.
The two of them exchanged fifty to sixty blows. In the end, Xuan Feng's cultivation was higher, while the big-eyed fatty was only at the early stage of Martial Ancestor Realm 9. He could not defeat Xuan Feng and lost.
Xuan Feng entered the third round.
The spectators could not help but sigh. The geniuses from the Ancient Desolate City were indeed powerful. They were the best in the entire Eastern Tianxuan Region.
The battle continued.
Soon, it was Qiu Changkong's turn. His opponent was a Middle Stage Martial Ancestor Realm 9 genius, whose cultivation was higher than Qiu Changkong's.
But surprisingly, he was still no match for Qiu Changkong. Qiu Changkong defeated his opponent in a crushing manner.
"Intent realm, that's intent realm. Qiu Changkong has actually comprehended a trace of thunder intent realm. No wonder he's so powerful!"
"Genius, he's really a genius. As long as his cultivation reaches the peak of Martial Ancestor Realm 9, he'll be a half-step King!"
"This time, the Eastern Sky Divine Guard will most likely be him!"
There were many experts in the spectators, and many of them were half-step Kings.
Naturally, they saw through the secret.
"Lu Ming, do you see the gap between us? Do you feel despair? "
Qiu Changkong walked to the side and another voice entered Lu Ming's ears.
"Idiot!"
Lu Ming curled his lips and ignored it.
"You …!"
Qiu Changkong felt as if he had punched the air. He was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.
Next, it was Zangsheng's turn.
