After the explosion of the Talisman, Ning Cheng once again took out another Talisman and threw it out. The cultivators on the sidelines were speechless, just how many low levelled talismans did this Ning Cheng have?
"Humph! Talisman! Try hitting me with a low-level talisman! Only an idiot would think that Ning Cheng relies on talismans. "
"Ning Cheng, you did a good job this time. The most important thing is that you know when to advance and when to retreat. I was afraid that you would not know when to advance and when to retreat, and would stay on the battle ring. "Rui Baishan was very satisfied with Ning Cheng's performance on the battle ring.
Ning Cheng once again returned to the battle platform, as he looked at the match on the stage and spoke in a somewhat lazy manner, "This kind of lukewarm water competition, it really is not exciting at all."
"It's Leng Yu, ranked third in the preliminary round. He's an expert from the Natural Law School. There will be a good show to watch this time."
The Rainbow Fall Sword Sect's Deputy Sect Master Tantai Fei gave a hearty laugh, "Good, this replacement is really good, but Ning Cheng should also come down. I didn't know he could win so many times in a row, so I didn't tell him some details … "
This was already Ning Cheng's 13th win in a row, but Ning Cheng found that something was wrong, because the interval between the people coming up was getting longer and longer. He had planned to win 80 matches in a row, but if things continued like this, it would be difficult for him to win 20 matches in a row.
"Heavenly Dao Academy's Leng Yu has come to ask for advice." This blue robed cultivator simply cupped his fists towards Ning Cheng as he spoke with an indifferent expression.
Saying that, Ning Cheng simply ignored Leng Yu's surprised look, and took the initiative to step down from the battle ring. Defeating Leng Yu was obviously not a problem. The problem was that he even defeated the cultivator ranked third. Who would dare to challenge him in the future?
Moreover, because Lu Ruman and Xi Yong were blasted out of the battle ring by Ning Cheng, and did not suffer even half a shred of injury, the number of people coming up to the battle ring to challenge Ning Cheng also increased.
"Warm water? In a while, in the competition for the last ten places, you will see what a life and death battle is. The cultivators on the stage are all fighting to the death, at this time they are just trying to obtain the qualifications for the final battle. "Liang Kexin, who was standing beside Ning Cheng, explained.
On the stage, Leng Yu had already won two matches in a row. It was obvious that he was going to win the third match. Ning Cheng suddenly felt a little dispirited, even in this kind of big competition, there was only a virtual Essence Birthing Bamboo Pith, causing him to feel happy for nothing.
Only he knew in his heart that Ning Cheng was definitely not as simple as he looked on the surface. He was sure that Ning Cheng's Talisman would not have even the slightest effect on him, but the reason why Ning Cheng used the Talisman was because he was afraid that he would show off too much power, and no one would come up to the stage.
Hearing the words of this Crucible Transformation Elder, the cultivator called Jin Lin forcibly suppressed his own killing intent. Although he did not fear Ning Cheng, but he still had to listen to the words of a Crucible Transformation Elder.
After Leng Yu stepped down from the stage, another golden-robed cultivator flew onto the stage, "Red Star Sword Faction's Jin Lin, I would like to ask for your advice."
Rui Baishan shook his head and spoke, "The Essence Birthing Bamboo Pith is such a precious thing, how could it be casually taken out as a reward? That was just a bluff. Don't take it seriously. Not to mention the fact that no cultivator can win 80 matches, even if you can win, you will eventually be interrupted by others for various reasons. But I've won fifty matches before. "
This Profound Core Cultivator spoke up in a puzzled manner, "Senior Apprentice Brother Jiang, in the preliminary round of the Profound Core Realm, I was evaluated to be ranked 9th. I've taken a look. So far, the one with the highest cultivation is only ranked around 30. "
"Why did Ning Cheng go up again?" Even Elder Bei and the others who had just spoken to Ning Cheng were somewhat puzzled. Ning Cheng and the Red Star Sword Faction had a conflict, as such it was not suitable for him to go up at this time.
"Since the Heavenly Dao Academy's Leng Yu came up, it means that he is not satisfied with you. Fortunately, you came down in time, and took care of everyone's face. Even if you want to fight with Leng Yu, you are not in a hurry, wait for the other major academies to obtain a certain number of points, then you can go and compete. "Tantai Fei also spoke with a smile.
… …
Ning Cheng had obtained 14 points for the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, which was already considered as one of the great contributors. Even the Crucible Transformation Elders here were all very kind towards Ning Cheng.
Then the crowd saw Ning Cheng sneak behind Xi Yong amidst the countless exploding talismans, and sweep out with his spear. It was a very simple process, but Xi Yong did not notice it at all.
Elder Bei patted Ning Cheng's shoulder and spoke with a smile, "This is very normal, after your consecutive victories on the stage, the other nine major academies rarely sent their top experts up, this is a kind of tacit understanding. Otherwise, if the experts from the major academies were to fight it out, then there would not be much excitement in the later stages. Now that the Great Meet of the Academies has formed this kind of tacit understanding, this kind of tacit understanding is recognized by everyone, that is why the Headmaster said that it was a good thing for you to come down in time. As for the competition for the first place, when there are only a dozen or so people left, only then would they go all out. "
Ning Cheng would always use the same set of techniques, the Ice Attribute Profound Ice Spear Art, coupled with countless low levelled talismans. Whenever anyone came up to the stage, Ning Cheng would always use the Profound Ice Spear Art to entangle the other party, and then take the opportunity to sprinkle out a handful of Profound Ice Talismans, and then successfully launch a sneak attack. Finally, he would sweep the other party off the stage, this was already the same old routine. But this set of methods, was a tried and tested method.
Even some of the judging elders, were frowning. The Tian Continent's Great Meet of the Academies, in fact, was mainly to select the top ten academies. Moreover, these rules had been settled down for countless years, and were known to all the academies. The rules of the tournament were not only worth watching, but were also something to look forward to. Looking forward to who would have the most victories in the end, and who would finally take the first place.
When Ning Cheng heard the words of the elders from the academy, he immediately spoke up, "In fact, it would be very difficult for anyone to obtain 50 points, and I was even thinking about the Essence Birthing Bamboo Pith."
Those bastards from the Red Star Sword Faction? Ning Cheng, without any hesitation, once again flew up to the battle platform. Liang Kexin did not even have the time to call out.
Some of the cultivators who knew him came up to ask him, but he just shook his head and spoke, "I was not careful and ended up getting sneak attacked."
All the people present understood the meaning of Tantai Fei's words, Ning Cheng now had 14 points, even if he did not take even a single point, this score was more than enough to reverse the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect's disadvantage. As for Ning Cheng coming down, it was just an unspoken rule that everyone was aware of.
Ning Cheng saw that Leng Yu had really won seven consecutive rounds, and with an expressionless face, descended from the battle platform.
The only thing that made everyone feel acceptable was that Ning Cheng's True Essence was limited, although he had thrown all the people off the battle platform, but there was no one who was truly injured.
As soon as Ning Cheng came down, Elder Bei immediately called Ning Cheng over.
Ning Cheng waited for a while, but still no one came up. Just as he was feeling depressed in his heart, a young man wearing a blue robe landed on the battle platform.
Ning Cheng looked at Leng Yu, and immediately knew that this person was a lot stronger than the previous Profound Core Cultivators.
"Humph, this kid really thinks that he is the best under the heavens." Some of the top ranked Profound Core Cultivators were already feeling uncomfortable in their hearts. They had not even fought a single round, yet this guy had already come up on the stage, did they still want to give out points to others?
No wonder Liang Kexin had said that the first place was the winner, moreover what kind of reward would be given out based on the number of points. Ning Cheng still did not understand and asked, "If that is the case, then why did you set the reward for a net win of 50 or 80?"
"What do you mean by knowing when to advance and when to retreat?" Ning Cheng asked with some doubts.
When Ning Cheng came down from the battle platform with 13 consecutive victories, a lot of people were feeling somewhat unhappy. It was reasonable to say that this was the time to see who was more powerful between Ning Cheng and Leng Yu, yet Ning Cheng unexpectedly took the initiative to come down.
"50 points is very difficult for people to obtain, but 30 points is not the first time someone has obtained it." Liang Kexin explained, Ning Cheng had come up too quickly before, causing her to not have enough time to explain.
Although many people knew about the tacit understanding between the academies, but more than 90% of the cultivators in the audience did not care about this, what they cared about was the level of excitement of the tournament. Now that Ning Cheng had come up on the stage, it immediately attracted a burst of enthusiasm.
A Crucible Transformation Elder spoke up from the side, "What Jiang Jun said is right, you are not a match for that Ning Cheng. That Ning Cheng's skill is more than enough to enter the top three, he could even enter the first place. He does not care about the feelings of the other academies, as he grinds for points, there would always be someone who would go up and deal with him first. "
However, they had now met a fellow who did not play his cards according to common sense. It was still far from the final stage to see who was more powerful, yet this Ning Cheng had already violated the rules. The problem was that even if they knew that Ning Cheng had violated the rules, they still had no reason to come out and stop the other party.
Ning Cheng was defeated in such a hypocritical way, he was still excited to win a bottle of Essence Birthing Bamboo Pith, he did not expect that he would be met with such a bucket of cold water.
With Xi Yong also being blasted down by Ning Cheng, the cultivators watching the tournament all knew that Ning Cheng seemed to have a few tricks up his sleeves.
Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness was very powerful, as such he was able to hear these discussions. Instead, he cupped his fists towards Leng Yu and spoke, "Elder Brother Leng looks very powerful, I might not necessarily be his opponent, I also want to go down and rest."
"Even a high level expert would not be able to block a handful of Talismans ….."
After all the people saw the long spear in Ning Cheng's hands, countless Talismans were blasted out. In the midst of the dense explosions of the Low Levelled Talismans, the sound of the True Essence explosions from the two people's Magical Weapons became insignificant.
Red Star Sword Faction's Jiang Jun stopped a Profound Core Cultivator covered in a murderous aura from rushing up the battle ring, "Junior Apprentice Brother Jin Lin, don't go up. This person is pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, you are definitely not his opponent. The hatred between me and him is as deep as the sea, I will definitely look for an opportunity to kill him. "
"Bang." Even if Xi Yong was wearing a silver armour, Ning Cheng's spear almost broke all of his bones. Just like Lu Ruman, he was directly swept off the battle ring. Even his few Defensive Magical Weapons, also fell to his side. After Xi Yong got up, he just patted the dust off his body and put away his Magical Weapons, while his face was very calm.
Ning Cheng had shown mercy, he was very clear in his heart.
Ning Cheng did not know that he had provoked the anger of the crowd, but he was aware that he had violated the unwritten rules. Even so, Ning Cheng was not the slightest bit afraid. In any case, after the tournament, he would fly away to a faraway place, so why would he care about the north, south, east or west? Regardless of the outcome of the tournament, as long as he took the prize and left, everything else would have nothing to do with him.
"The ten Major Academies, as well as some of the cultivators who are qualified to be promoted to the ten Major Academies, after winning a certain number of matches in a row, they will take the initiative to come down, leaving some points for the others. The real competition for the first place in the Profound Core Realm, will only start when there are only a dozen or so people left. The last person standing on the battle ring, without anyone challenging him, will be the first. Although in most cases, the first place will be the one with the highest score, but this is not absolute. "Elder Bei explained.
