Everyone was extremely excited when they heard Zhou Yu reveal his identity.
The Heavenly Dao Martial Palace was indeed worthy of being the strongest among the five academies. The most crucial Hidden Dragon Tournament of the five academies was hosted by the people from the Heavenly Dao Martial Palace.
"Everyone, you are the martial geniuses of the All-Heaven Saints' World. You represent the peak martial talent of the All-Heaven Saints' World. Your strength will determine the future of the All-Heaven Saints' World," Zhou Yu continued. His voice boomed like thunder, "I look forward to your spectacular performance."
The great era of martial arts was brought about by many martial geniuses.
The recruitment of the five academies was a grand event in the All-heaven Sacred World. Who didn't want to amaze the world on the Hidden Dragon Battle stage and become the most dazzling genius?
Afterwards, someone behind Zhou Yu stepped forward and introduced the rules of the Hidden Dragon Battle.
The Hidden Dragon Battle was divided into four stages. The first stage was the group battles. All the cultivators would fight five rounds. Those who won three rounds or more would enter the group of winners, while the others would enter the group of losers.
The second stage was the elimination stage. The cultivators in the group of winners and losers would fight sixty-four rounds each. Each round would be worth one point. Losses or draws would not be worth any points. After sixty-four rounds, the top one thousand cultivators in the group of winners would advance, while the rest would be eliminated. The top two hundred cultivators in the group of losers would advance, while the rest would be eliminated.
The third stage was the group battles. The top one thousand and two hundred cultivators would be split into four groups based on points. Each group would have three hundred cultivators. They would fight one by one until the top sixteen were decided.
The fourth stage was the Hidden Dragon Battle. The top sixty-four cultivators would fight one on one. The winners would advance, while the losers would be eliminated until the Martial Champion of the five academies was decided!
Everyone nodded after hearing the rules. They were clearly very satisfied.
The Hidden Dragon Battle was a grand event after all, so the rules were slightly more complicated but also fair. Even if one lost one or two rounds at the beginning, they would still advance as long as they were strong enough. The only exception would be if they were unlucky and encountered a strong cultivator in every round.
"Everyone, I have a few more things to say. Listen carefully." At this moment, Zhou Yu stepped forward again. He glanced across the crowd and said, "You are all rare martial geniuses. If any of you are injured, it will be a loss to the All-heaven Sacred World.
"But on the martial arena, it's a battle between experts, so accidents are inevitable."
"In order to reduce casualties as much as possible, we have arranged a referee for every arena."
"Martial artists can admit defeat during a duel. In a critical situation, the referee has the authority to intervene in a battle between martial artists. "
"Do you understand what I'm saying?"
After saying that, Zhou Yu's gaze swept across the crowd, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
"Sir, if the referee interferes in the battle, will he be too harsh on the warriors?" Someone shouted at that moment.
Zhou Yu's eyes darkened slightly, and he said loudly, "Don't worry, the judges are all students from the five academies, and they can be considered your seniors. They won't be too harsh on any of you."
"Well, that's good." Everyone nodded. Obviously, they agreed with the arrangement of the five academies.
"So those people are all students from the five academies." Nie Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was shocked.
Previously, he had thought that the hundreds of young cultivators behind Zhou Yu were teachers from the five great academies. In the end, they were actually students.
The hundreds of young martial artists were all very powerful. Most of them were Tianjue Saint Emperors. Even the weakest was at the ninth layer of the Heavenly Tribulation.
Then, Zhou Yu announced the official start of the Hidden Dragon Battle. The hundreds of referees moved and landed on the arenas.
"The first battle of the first arena, Hidden Dragon No. 999 versus Hidden Dragon No. 3796."
"The first battle of the seventh arena, Hidden Dragon No. 673 versus Hidden Dragon No. 4352."
"The first battle of the 166th arena, Hidden Dragon No. 8739 versus Hidden Dragon No. 3355."
"…"
Then, a series of voices rang out. It was the start of the Hidden Dragon Battle.
As the voices faded, the figures of the warriors landed on the arenas one after another.
Nie Tian smiled faintly. He took out his Hidden Dragon Token, and after sensing for a while, he confirmed that he was number 218.
It wasn't his turn in the first round, but he wasn't in a hurry. He could take the opportunity to see how strong these warriors were.
"Nie Tian, are you going to fight with these people later?" At that moment, She Tiankuang looked at Nie Tian and asked seriously.
"Yes." Nie Tian smiled faintly and agreed.
Originally, he didn't plan to bring She Tiankuang here, but the latter insisted on following, so he had no choice.
Moreover, he was worried that She Tiankuang would lose control again, so it was better to bring her with him.
At this moment, She Tiankuang's mind had returned to normal. She was like a normal twelve or thirteen year old boy, but she was a little more muscular.
"They're too weak." She Tiankuang frowned, crossed her arms in front of her chest, and shook her head with a smile.
"Uh …" Nie Tian was stunned, and didn't know what to say.
Indeed, to She Tiankuang, the warriors in front of her were indeed a little weak.
Although She Tiankuang was only at the ninth level of Heavenly Righteousness, her battle strength was probably enough to fight against a ninth level Heavenly Calamity expert.
And this was She Tiankuang's battle strength under the condition that she didn't cultivate martial skills. If she had cultivated martial skills, she would probably be able to fight against a Tianjue Saint Emperor.
Nie Tian had been thinking about finding a suitable martial skill for She Tiankuang to cultivate these few days.
Then, Nie Tian laughed, and didn't say anything else.
Soon, the first round of battles was basically over, and the second round of battles was about to begin.
"Stage 188, second round, Hidden Dragon 208 against Hidden Dragon 520." At this moment, a voice was heard, causing Nie Tian's eyes to tremble, and his eyes were filled with excitement.
He was indeed Hidden Dragon 208, and he didn't know who his first opponent would be.
"Xiao Kuang, I'm going to fight someone later. This is a battle between the two of us. No matter what happens, don't interfere, understand?" Before Nie Tian stepped onto the stage, he warned She Tiankuang.
He was worried that if he encountered an expert and was injured, She Tiankuang would suddenly attack, and that would be terrible.
"Yes." She Tiankuang nodded, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as you're not killed, I won't interfere."
Nie Tian couldn't help but be stunned. When did this kid learn to joke?
Then, Nie Tian's figure moved, and directly landed on stage 188.
At the same time, a figure also landed.
"It's you!" When Nie Tian saw the face in front of him clearly, his eyes couldn't help but narrow, and he exclaimed.
