At Ouyang Lan's command, Hai Zhengming, the vice president of the Northern College, jumped onto the arena to be the referee for today's match.
In terms of the format of the Battle of Kings, the referee's main purpose was to ensure the safety of both teams. As for the outcome, whoever was still standing on the arena would be the winner.
Qin Haodong led the ten students of the Northern College to the preparation area. On the other side of the spectator stand, Tu Jiaojiao, the captain of the Southern College, also walked in with her students.
Although they were on opposite sides of the arena and were far away from each other, cultivators had excellent eyesight. The two of them nodded at each other from a distance.
At this moment, Qin Haodong was suddenly startled. His gaze fell on a man beside Tu Jiaojiao. It was You Wanjian.
But You Wanjian had clearly died in the Seventh Stage Pagoda, torn to pieces by the Cerberus summoned by the Little She-Devil. Why was he suddenly participating in the match?
He asked Murong Jinghong, who was beside him, "Is that You Wanjian?"
"That's not You Wanjian, but You Wanjian's twin brother, You Wanren." Murong Jinghong said, "You Wanjian and You Wanren are both outstanding students of the Southern College.
You Wanren was in seclusion at home this time and did not participate in the Seventh Stage Pagoda trial. "
Qin Haodong nodded, finally understanding what was going on.
At this moment, You Wanren also saw Qin Haodong and the others and strode over.
"You're Qin Haodong?"
Qin Haodong nodded. "That's me."
"Did you kill my big brother?"
Qin Haodong said, "Your big brother brought it upon himself. He was courting death."
He did not explain what had happened. Even if he had not fainted, he would have killed You Wanjian with his own hands.
"Then it was you who killed him." You Wanren's eyes were like those of a wild beast. He said, "Not only will I become the King of the Black Tortoise Institution in today's match, but I will also avenge my big brother."
Qin Haodong said indifferently, "Up to you. As long as you have the ability."
"See you in the arena!"
You Wanren turned around and returned to the Southern College team.
Murong Jinghong said, "You mustn't underestimate this person. The reason why You Wanjian is known as the number one of the south campus is because You Wanren admitted defeat in their battle.
Some people speculate that You Wanren's true strength is above You Wanjian's. "
Qin Haodong nodded, but he didn't take him seriously.
At this moment, Hai Zhengming, who was in the arena, said, "The competition has begun. Both North and South Academies, please send out your contestants."
Qin Haodong looked at his teammates and said to Song Junyu, "Senior Song, I'll leave the first battle to you."
For this special competition format, there wasn't much technical content in the beginning. Everyone used members with lower cultivation to exhaust the strength of their opponents.
The members who had a chance of winning the title of King would naturally be left to the back. After all, no matter how strong they were, they would not be able to win ten matches in a row.
What they needed to worry about were the last few people to fight. If they fought too early, their opponents would consume too much of their strength, and they might not be able to reach the end.
However, if he was too late and his companions managed to take down all of the opposing team's members, then the title of King would not be his.
According to this logic, the two people who could win the title of King would definitely be the last two students.
Song Junyu's face immediately sank. Although she didn't expect to be the King of today's competition, she also didn't expect that she would be the first to fight.
Because the earlier she fought, the more she could prove that she was just cannon fodder, paving the way for her companions.
However, Luo Dongqing had already told her that if she didn't listen to the captain's arrangement, she would be automatically disqualified. So although she was extremely dissatisfied, she could only walk to the arena with a livid face.
"A freshman who just entered the academy dares to use me as cannon fodder. I'll show you my strength later."
Song Junyu secretly swore. At this time, the best way to prove herself was to win. As long as she won a few matches in a row, it would be equivalent to slapping Qin Haodong in the face.
After she went to the arena, the South Academy also sent a male student named Gao Qi.
Murong Jinghong stood side by side with Qin Haodong and said in a low voice, "What do you think? Can Song Junyu win the first match? "
Qin Haodong shook his head and said, "We lost this match."
He had already clearly seen Gao Qi's cultivation. The late-stage of the Void Refinement Realm was one level higher than Song Junyu, who was in the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Tu Jiaojiao had sent such a tyrannical member at the beginning. It seemed that the South Academy attached great importance to the first match and wanted to gain the upper hand with a show of strength.
However, in this kind of competition, it didn't matter whether the first match was won or not, and it didn't matter how many matches they won in a row. What was important was who would laugh in the end.
In the arena, Hai Zhengming said to the two people, "I'll announce the rules of the competition. First, this is a competition within the academy, not a fight to the death. You must show mercy.
If you cause your opponent's death, you will be disqualified.
Second, except for summoners, you are not allowed to use magical beasts to fight … "
After hearing this rule, Murong Jinghong said, "It seems that your three-legged golden toad won't be used."
Qin Haodong smiled slightly. "It doesn't matter. I hope you can win the title of Challenger."
Murong Jinghong shook his head and said, "It's very difficult. Normally, I'm not a match for Sister Jiaojiao."
Hai Zhengming announced a few rules in succession and announced the start of the competition.
Song Junyu had already gathered her strength and wanted to take down Gao Qi in one fell swoop. After hearing the word 'start', the long sword in her hand immediately turned into a graceful thrust.
Gao Qi was extremely tall, but when he moved, he was extremely agile.
He did not use any weapons. His body moved like a ghost and easily dodged the sword. At the same time, he broke through the protective circle of the long sword and arrived in front of Song Junyu.
His fighting style was simple and violent. Before the long sword could be pulled back to defend, his two fists were like raindrops. Not only did they hit the face and chest, but they also completely sealed off all possible escape routes.
Song Junyu's long sword had already been thrust out, and it was too late for her to pull back to defend. She had no choice but to quickly retreat, trying to get rid of Gao Qi's attack and then reorganize her attack.
However, Gao Qi did not give her the chance. His body was like a sharp arrow that had left the bow, and he followed her like a shadow, punching out with both fists.
Both of them were experts in the Void Refinement Realm, and their speed was extremely fast. Almost in the blink of an eye, Song Junyu's back hit the guardrail of the arena, and there was no way out.
At the same time, Gao Qi's fist was also in front of her.
In desperation, Song Junyu raised her left hand and also punched out.
With a muffled bang, the two fists collided. Gao Qi's advantage in cultivation was obvious, and he knocked Song Junyu out of the arena with a single punch.
Song Junyu landed on both feet. Although she did not suffer any serious internal injuries, her face was livid.
She had wanted to show off her strength to prove herself, but she did not expect to be defeated in a single move. How could she put her face like this!
The spectating students immediately became noisy. They did not expect the match to end as soon as it began. There was indeed a huge difference in strength.
Murong Jinghong said, "The students of the southern campus are indeed very strong."
The southern campus had suffered great losses in this trial in the Seventh Stage Pagoda. Not only had they lost You Wanjian, but they had also lost eight other Void Refinement Realm students.
They had thought that their strength would be reduced, but they did not expect their performance to be so fierce as soon as the match began.
Qin Haodong shook his head. "Senior Sister Song is indeed not as strong as her opponent, but if she had not been careless, she would not have lost so quickly."
At this moment, Hai Zhengming, who was in the arena, said, "This round, Gao Qi of the southern campus has won. The northern campus will continue to send their students to the arena."
"Senior, I'll have to trouble you."
Qin Haodong sent another student to the arena to fight.
However, Gao Qi was indeed fierce. His cultivation was profound, and his fighting style was swift and fierce. The student was only able to withstand ten moves before he was thrown off the arena.
Then, the third, fourth, and fifth students. In less than half an hour, the northern campus had lost five consecutive matches, all at the hands of Gao Qi.
"What is the northern campus doing? Aren't they too weak? "
"Did you see that? This is the strength of the southern campus. The northern campus does not even have the ability to fight back! "
"If this continues, Senior Gao Qi will be able to win the final match alone …"
After losing five consecutive matches, the spectating students of the southern campus were all in an uproar. The northern campus was like a frosted eggplant, and there was not even a sound of cheering.
On the spectator stand, Ouyang Lan said to Luo Dongqing, "Old man, your cultivation has improved a lot, but your students don't seem to be able to do so. They seem to be losing more miserably than every year!"
Luo Dongqing did not care, "Old woman, it's too early for you to be happy. Our grandson-in-law is not that easy to deal with. I have a feeling that you will definitely lose this year."
Ouyang Lan said disdainfully, "Dead duck, you are so stubborn. You have already lost to this extent, but you are still stubborn."
On the reserve seats, Wang Zhiliang said with dissatisfaction, "Qin Haodong, how did you arrange your team? You have lost five matches in a row! "
"Don't worry, it will be fine if we lose one more match." Qin Haodong smiled at him, "You go this time."
"I'll go, I'll go."
Wang Zhiliang had been observing the team for a long time, and he had seen most of Gao Qi's cultivation methods. Both of them were in the Late-stage of Void Training.
Gao Qi had fought five matches in a row, and although he had won all of them, he had expended a lot of energy, so he was certain that he would win this match.
However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. "You want me to go, so let me go, but you want me to lose another match? Aren't you cursing me?
Damn it, I'll show you my strength today. "
He rushed into the ring angrily. As soon as the match began, he punched Gao Qi's chest hard with his fists.
Gao Qi did not back down. He also threw out a punch, and the two fists collided with a loud bang.
Wang Zhiliang took three or four steps back, while Gao Qi took seven or eight steps back.
The gap between their cultivation was revealed in this head-on collision. They were both in the Late-stage of Void Training, but Gao Qi had consumed a lot of energy.
Wang Zhiliang did not stop after gaining the upper hand. After one move, he continued to attack Gao Qi in an overwhelming manner.
For a moment, the situation on the field had changed dramatically. Gao Qi, who had been full of energy, was completely suppressed. After a dozen moves, he could only parry and could not fight back.
Seeing this scene, the students of the Northern Academy, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly became excited and began to cheer for Wang Zhiliang.
Fang Qiong 'er said, "It seems that we can finally win a match."
Qin Haodong said, "If Wang Zhiliang can control his arrogance, we can indeed win this match. But judging from the current situation, he can't win."
Yun Qianqian said, "How is that possible? We have such a big advantage, and it is only a matter of time before we win."
Qin Haodong said, "Gao Qi is more powerful than you think. Although he is at a disadvantage, it is definitely not as serious as it is now. It is all an act.
Just watch, he will fight back soon. "
