Everyone was very clear about Shangguan Cheng's temper. No one dared to refute what he had decided. Moreover, everyone also knew that the situation this time really made the Shangguan Family feel ashamed, so they did not dare to plead for Shangguan Wenyang.
If Shangguan Wenyang lost to an opponent of the same realm, even if the opponent was the Chen Family, they would never be so angry.
They were angry because Shangguan Wenyang was also one of the outstanding young geniuses of the Shangguan Family. Now, he actually lost to a Chen Family Middle Dacheng Stage disciple who was weaker than their Shangguan Family.
This kind of thing was difficult to accept even if it was changed to several other families with similar strength as the Chen Family, let alone their Shangguan Family.
However, on such an occasion, although Shangguan Cheng was angry, he still tried to maintain his own demeanor and did not let Shangguan Wenyang kneel in front of him.
Shangguan Wenyang stood there with his head down. Although he felt that the punishment of 500 years was too heavy, now that the family head was angry, he did not dare to say more. He was afraid that he would be given another few hundred years, and then his life would be over.
However, such a thing happened today, he did not have the face to see people in the Shangguan Family. It was good to think about it to avoid embarrassment, but this 500 years was really too long.
The Shangguan Family was like a withered eggplant in this battle, while the Chen Family was jubilant. The haze of Chen Honghai's loss suddenly disappeared. For such a big victory, it was worth celebrating.
However, there was one person in the crowd who was not happy. This person was Chen Qiuhan, who had a bye in the first round.
It was not because of Chen Dong's victory that he was unhappy, but because of Chen Dong's sudden rise, which made him feel as if he had suddenly become the weakest person in the Chen Family.
In particular, he won the first round without a bye. Many people thought that he was just lucky, and he had no strength at all.
Therefore, the joy he felt from getting a bye had suddenly turned into humiliation for him.
In the next battle, Chen Hongyuan was fighting against Jiang Yunsheng of the Jiang Family. This person was only in the Middle Dacheng Stage, so Chen Hongyuan did not spend much effort to defeat him.
Chen Hongyuan's luck was also good. He only encountered an early dacheng Stage disciple, and he also advanced easily.
Batches after batches of people were replaced on the four arenas. Although there were a few dark horses, only a few people were able to make a successful counterattack. Most people were unable to do so.
Fifty-seven people. If one person got a bye, that would mean fifty-six people would have to fight. Twenty-eight groups of people would compete on four arenas, which meant that there would be seven matches on each arena.
Although some of the battles were very quick, many of the battles were of similar strength. As a result, the battles took a long time. In the end, it took a whole day for the first round to finish.
After the day's competition was over, each aristocratic family's mood was different.
Six out of ten people from the Ji Clan had entered the second round. This winning rate was very high. The Situ Clan ranked second in terms of number of people, with five out of nine people advancing to the next level.
Then, there were four people from the Chen Clan, three people from the Nangong Clan, three people from the Jiang Clan, two people from the Gongsun Clan, two people from the Shangguan Clan, two people from the Dongfang Clan, and two people from the Feng Clan.
There were a total of twenty-nine people who entered the second round. From the results of the first round, although the Ji Clan had the most people who entered the second round, the Chen Clan had the highest winning rate. Out of a total of five people, four people advanced to the second round. Their winning rate had reached 80%. Once again, they became a dark horse, attracting the attention of the other eight aristocratic families.
Apart from the Chen Clan, the Jiang Clan's performance was also not bad. Although Jiang Yunshan was counterattacked by Nangong Ke, out of five people from the Jiang Clan, three people advanced to the second round. Their winning rate was the same as the Ji Clan, reaching 60%.
However, with so many people from the Chen Clan and the Jiang Clan advancing, naturally, there were people from other aristocratic families who were eliminated. Among them, there were a few aristocratic families who were not in a good situation.
For example, the Nangong Clan's seven people only had three people left. The Gongsun Clan's six people only had two people left. They had lost more than half of their people.
Especially the Nangong Clan, after the first round, their Nangong Clan was ranked fourth. This was not good for them in the next round.
"Brother Hongyuan, I really have to congratulate you this time. According to the current situation, your Chen Clan has a very high chance of entering the top three!" After the first round of competition ended, Chen Hongyuan walked down, cupped his fists, and smiled.
Originally, they thought that the Chen Clan did not have much hope this time. However, they did not expect the Chen Clan to really become a dark horse. Out of five people, four people advanced to the second round. The following Clan Tournament was still very promising.
"Although today's situation was not bad, today was only the first round of elimination. Many of the weaker people were basically eliminated today. Therefore, compared to today, tomorrow's elimination will be a tough battle. It is hard to say whether our Chen Clan can maintain such an advantage! "Today's results made Chen Hongyuan very happy, but he did not become arrogant and complacent because of it.
Because today was only the first day of the Clan Tournament. From tomorrow onwards, the opponents would be stronger and stronger. Therefore, the difficulty of the Clan Tournament would also increase.
Especially in the semi-finals and semi-finals, the remaining people were basically in the late dacheng stage.
However, there were ten or twenty late dacheng stage experts in the entire Clan Tournament. Therefore, even the late dacheng stage experts would be eliminated in large numbers. It could be seen how fierce the competition would be in the future.
Therefore, what Chen Hongyuan was really worried about was the battle for the top three. Because he not only wanted a false reputation, but also hoped to help the Chen Clan get into the top three, so that the Chen Clan could obtain the qualification to enter the Dead Domain.
"Rest assured, I still have a lot of confidence in you. Even if the other families also have some experts, you are not worse than them, so your chances are still very high. Besides, the drawing of lots still depends on luck. If your luck is good, I believe it will be very easy for you to enter the finals.
If your opponents have bad luck and they meet some strong opponents in advance, then you will make a big profit. "Xinhai laughed.
"What if I meet a strong opponent in advance? Then wouldn't I be out soon? "Chen Hongyuan smiled bitterly.
There was a sentence in Xinhai's words that was right. This kind of drawing of lots, luck was really important. Before entering the ring, no one knew how strong their opponent was.
Just like today's round of competition, in fact, some people with good strength but bad luck were directly eliminated. For example, Shangguan Wenyang of the Shangguan Clan.
Even if his strength was not very powerful, but no matter what, he was also a late dacheng stage master, no matter what, it would not be bad.
But after the end of the first round of elimination, even many people in the early and middle dacheng stage advanced, but he was eliminated. Would he be weaker than these people? Obviously not.
