On the second day, there were twelve rounds of competition.
In all the even-numbered rounds, Chen Hao still managed to clear all the rounds by himself. In the odd-numbered rounds, Ye Feixue and Helian Wuzi finally had a chance to fight. But they were all stopped by Helian Wuzi's terrifying strength, which made Long Yukong unable to vent his frustrations for an entire day.
Moreover, Long Yukong also noticed that Helian Wuzi, who had the same result as him during the test, was ranked behind him due to the difference in realm. But now, Helian Wuzi's terrifying combat power was already much stronger than his … (Note: Helian Wuzi's test result was misremembered by Dark Mountain.) The front has been corrected. Helian Wuzi and Long Yukong both got 86. Sorry …)
Leng Yihan's performance was not inferior to Chen Hao's. Everyone was surprised, especially when they found out that Chen Hao and Leng Yihan were the first and second runners-up of the Hundred Empire Ranking three years ago and tied. Some meddlesome cultivators even gave Chen Hao and Leng Yihan a very awesome nickname — the "Legendary Twins"!
…
In two days, there were 22 rounds of competition. Other than the top ten sects, only the Zhaixing Sect and the Wan Dan Pavilion could maintain their winning streak. Now, more than half of the group Sect battles had been completed.
There were a total of 295 sects qualified. Groups one to five had 30 sects, and groups six to ten had 29 sects. This meant that the Zhaixing Sect only had six matches left.
By now, it was clear to everyone that Group 6's Star-Picking Sect and Group 9's Myriad Pill Pavilion, under the leadership of Chen Hao and Leng Yihan, the two monstrous geniuses, would take second place without much suspense. They were looking forward to seeing how Chen Hao and Leng Yihan would perform when the Zhaixing Sect met the Sky Sword Sect, and the Wan Dan Pavilion met the Piao Miao Sect.
If there were no surprises, the last match of each group would be between the strongest sect in the group and the ninth rank sect.
From the looks of it, Leng Yihan and Gu Xing, Chen Hao and Wu Ruochen would definitely face each other in the final round, which would be tomorrow's even-numbered sixth round.
How would the dark horses, Chen Hao and Leng Yihan, perform when faced with two veteran geniuses? Would it go dark all the way, or would it be suppressed by Wu Ruochen and Gu Xing?
Without a doubt, this was what everyone looked forward to the most. Especially since news of the conflict between Lone Star and Chen Hao had already spread. Almost everyone knew about it. If these two met, it would definitely be a battle of life and death!
…
The next day, at 7 AM.
The entire Martial Arts Practice Field was filled with a sea of people, so crowded that not even a drop of water could trickle through. The buzzing sounds of discussion resounded in every corner of the Martial Arts Practice Field. Ever since the first day Chen Hao, Xia Youyou, Leng Yihan, and Zhao Yuanqing sat together, the four of them had been sitting together for the past two days, regardless of whether they came early or late.
Moreover, he had undoubtedly become the center of attention of the entire Martial Arts Practice Field.
For the past two days, Wu Ruochen had a gloomy expression on his face, as if his father had died. Until now, although he was still unhappy, he knew that the Sect Master's arrangement was right. His opponents were Gu Xing and Chu Qingtian. Before he fought with the two of them, it would be unwise for him to expose some of his trump cards because of Chen Hao.
Gu Xing's expression still did not change, but the battle intent in his heart was rising. Leng Yihan, who was in the same group, had displayed strength that was no less shocking than Chen Hao. Moreover, Gu Xing could faintly feel that Leng Yihan had not displayed his true strength until now.
…
"The time has come. Let's begin!"
Following the Yuan Gate Master's words, ten judges suddenly appeared in the Ten-Sided Arena.
"First group, White Cloud Sect versus Sky Eagle Sect. Please enter!"
"Second group, Sword Rain Pavilion versus Tyrant Blade Sect. Please enter!"
…
"Ninth group, Floating Mist Sect versus Myriad Pill Pavilion. Please enter!"
…
Crash!
As the judges in the Ten-Sided Arena announced one after another, there were no abnormalities until the eighth group. However, when it came to the ninth group, the entire Martial Arts Practice Field was in an uproar. Including the numerous Sect Masters on the rostrum, they were a little surprised. What was going on?
The ninth group, the match between Myriad Pill Pavilion and Floating Mist Sect, was expected to be the most exciting match in the ninth group. If there were no surprises, the judges should have arranged for it to be the last match. However, no one expected it to appear in the first match.
The buzzing sound of discussion immediately resounded throughout the Martial Arts Practice Field.
They all expressed their dissatisfaction with the judges' arrangement. Yes, dissatisfaction. Because, in the ninth group, everyone was looking forward to the match between Leng Yihan and Gu Xing. However, if it was arranged in the first round, the order of appearance would be from the weakest to the strongest. No matter how powerful Leng Yihan was, it would be impossible for him to meet Gu Xing in the last round.
…
"Hehe …" Seeing everyone's gaze on him, the Floating Mist Sect Master smiled slightly and said without any embarrassment, "That's right. I specifically ordered it. This Leng Yihan's strength is not inferior to the top geniuses of our ninth-grade sects. If Gu Xing meets him at this time, you will benefit from it. I can't let Gu Xing suffer this loss. If they want to fight, let them fight when they reach the top twenty. That's only fair … "
"Brother Gu is right. Chen Hao is the same. Today's third round will be the match between our Sky Sword Sect and the Star-Picking Sect, haha … "The Sky Sword Sect Master smiled slightly and spoke in support. This guy and the Floating Mist Sect Master had met last night to discuss this matter and immediately hit it off. He believed that the others had nothing to say. After all, it was only the order of appearance. The Sect Tournament was a round-robin, so there was not much difference whether it was early or late. It could not change the result. It was also because of this that the judges had the power to arrange the matches on their own.
"You two old guys really can't take any losses … However, it seems that you don't trust your own disciples, haha …" The Yuan Sect Master said proudly.
…
"That's good too!"
Leng Yihan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the Myriad Pill Pavilion and the Floating Mist Sect would appear. The Floating Mist Sect did not want Gu Xing to expose his strength early, and Leng Yihan did not want to do the same. Leng Yihan did not have the perverted idea of defeating the Floating Mist Sect like Chen Hao. The disparity in numbers and strength was too great. It was simply impossible.
However, Chen Hao frowned slightly. Especially after he caught the conversation of the guys on the rostrum, he was even more depressed. It did not seem to affect the result, but that was what others thought. For Chen Hao, it was very different. If Chen Hao defeated Wu Ruochen, the momentum of the Sky Sword Sect would be greatly affected. As long as Chen Hao gritted his teeth and relied on his perverted physical talent and recovery ability, he might be able to exceed his limit and defeat dozens or even hundreds of people. The remaining people's cultivation would definitely not be as good as Long Yukong, Helian Wuzi, Tantai Lian, and Ye Feixue. Moreover, Helian Wuzi's recovery ability under the Mystery of Reincarnation was definitely beyond Chen Hao's imagination. Perhaps a miracle could really happen and he could achieve his "grand" goal …
But with this, it undoubtedly made the hope even slimmer. How long could the Star-Picking Sect last with only ten people? The Sky Sword Sect had nearly two hundred people …
Most importantly, under such circumstances, even if Chen Hao fought to the end, he would have exhausted his vital essence and overdrawn his essence, qi, and spirit. At that time, if he fought against Wu Ruochen in her peak state, what were his chances of winning?
These were two completely different concepts.
…
Gu Xing, who was sitting not far away, was also quite surprised. However, his expression did not change, and only the fighting spirit in his heart slowly retracted.
…
The competition began with a bang. Without a doubt, in the first round of the first round, the nine people became the focus of the entire martial arts practice field.
"Win as many rounds as you can. This is the time to show the true strength of our Myriad Pill Pavilion. A seventh-grade sect is too low for us. This time, not only will we be promoted to an eighth-grade sect, but we will also be the top existence among eighth-grade sects! Don't be afraid, fight with your spirit! When you return to the sect, you will be greatly rewarded! " The elder of the Myriad Pill Pavilion, when the sect's weakest disciple appeared, transmitted a message to his disciple at the same time.
Up until now, the Myriad Pill Pavilion's achievements had been quite dazzling because of Leng Yihan. They were already the top existence among seventh-grade sects. This time, there was no doubt that they would be promoted to an eighth-grade sect. If they performed better, they could definitely become the top existence among eighth-grade sects. Their sect's foundation was no less than that of an eighth-grade sect.
"Yihan, just do your best. Your real stage is after the top twenty. Don't expose your trump card for now!"
Hearing the elder's message, Leng Yihan nodded slightly.
…
The seventh-grade Myriad Pill Pavilion had a total of twenty-three people who were officially qualified for the competition. The ninth-grade Floating Mist Sect had a total of one hundred and eighty-four people, second only to the Yuan Gate and Sky Sword Sect.
After a vigorous battle for half an hour, the twenty-two people of the Myriad Pill Pavilion, except for Leng Yihan, were all annihilated. However, the results were satisfactory to the Myriad Pill Pavilion. Twenty-two people eliminated thirty-four people with the lowest cultivation from the Floating Mist Sect.
"Sigh, the twenty-two of us are not as strong as the nine of you …" Leng Yihan shook his head and said to Chen Hao. After that, his figure flashed and rushed to the arena.
As the first master of the Myriad Pill Pavilion and the only one left, the moment Leng Yihan appeared on the arena, the entire arena began to buzz with discussion again.
"Guess, how many rounds can Leng Yihan win in a row?"
"Right now, the Myriad Pill Pavilion has only eliminated thirty-four people, and they are all at the peak of the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. There are more than ten people at the peak of the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, followed by more than thirty at the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. Although Leng Yihan is at the early stage of the Incarnation Realm, I'm afraid fifty people is his limit … "
"More than fifty people? This guy has eliminated at least a hundred people … "Chen Hao said softly when he heard the crowd's discussion.
"Hao Hao, you know him very well?" Xia Youyou asked with a little surprise. If Leng Yihan could eliminate a hundred people, the last ten people would all be at the peak of the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. How strong would his True Essence be?
"I know him, but the most important thing is that this guy has to compete with me at all times. Since he went first, he will definitely challenge his limits and grit his teeth … "Chen Hao said with certainty.
