Seeing that Ceng Tianshun was getting closer, Lin Jiexing finally could not hold it in anymore. While Ye Kong was not paying attention, he suddenly pulled out a zhanmadao and swung it!
"One with the saber!"
This Lin Jiexing was indeed a genius. At such a young age, he had already reached the pinnacle of mortal martial arts, one with the saber!
Lin Jiexing's body and the saber became one. With one slash, a crack immediately appeared in the group of Metal Metal Beasts!
Lin Jiexing used one with the saber because he did not want to fight with the Metal Metal Beasts. His body and the saber became one. When the saber broke through, his body followed.
He used it when Ye Kong was not paying attention, but a certain someone had been watching him. When he moved, a certain someone also moved.
The previously lazy Ye Kong had disappeared. His whole body was filled with power! His slow movements just now had also become as fast as lightning! This was his true speed! Frighteningly fast!
Ye Kong burst forth with his true speed. Although it was only for a moment, everyone on the VIP seats saw it. They were all True Monarchs, Divine Lord. How could they be so easily fooled?
Zi Yan Long's eyes lit up. He sighed, "I did not expect Great Scholar Ye's acting skills to be so good. I was almost fooled."
Ceng Ao also nodded, "If he really used his full strength, I am afraid he would still be number one."
Lin Weiming snorted, "Unfortunately, his character is too bad. He is so wicked!"
Huang Shishi felt good this time. She smiled, "Elder Lin, why are you so anxious? Isn't Lin Jiexing still number one?"
Lin Jiexing and Ye Kong arrived at the same time. According to the competition rules, they were tied for first place.
Lin Weiming said unhappily, "Jiexing used so much strength. That kid did not use any strength at all! He is so bad! "
Lin Jiexing and Ye Kong were teleported back to the main stage at the same time. The audience cheered loudly. A certain someone was too shameless. He did not kill a single spirit beast. He did not even use his fist. How could he get first place? This was too unfair!
Lin Jiexing, who had been taken advantage of by Ye Kong, smiled. He crossed his arms and said, "Ye Kong, did you hear that? Those boos are for you."
Ye Kong's eyes swept over them and he smiled faintly. "What does it have to do with me? Since they don't think highly of me, I don't need to please them."
"Looks like you're not that popular."
"En … as long as you're popular with women."
"That's true." Lin Jiexing laughed, then squinted at Ye Kong and said coldly, "I wonder when I can witness Scholar Ye's true strength?"
Ye Kong also looked at him with a smile, "Don't worry, I will give you a quick death!"
Not long after, Ceng Tianshun appeared. He had really killed his way here without any tricks. His whole body was drenched in the blood of spirit beasts. He was indeed a brave warrior.
It was different from the scene when the two of them entered. This time, everyone gave them a thunderous applause. Ceng Tianshun did not say anything. He cupped his fists and walked to stand beside Ye Kong.
"Thank you." Ceng Tianshun said in a low voice.
Ye Kong stared blankly, thinking, what is he thanking me for? But then he remembered that if he hadn't harmed Shao Chenzui, Ceng Tianshun would have been fourth.
"Don't mention it. I'm not helping you, I'm helping myself."
Ceng Tianshun said again, "But if we meet in the second round, I won't let you win."
Ye Kong stood up. This Ceng Tianshun was really honest. En, this person is worth befriending. I like to make friends with honest people the most.
"I don't need you to let me win, and I won't let you win! Even if you let me win, I won't win honorably … If I want to win, I'll win fair and square! "A certain person said righteously and forcefully, completely forgetting his despicable and shameless behavior just now.
Lin Jiexing immediately sent a look of contempt towards him.
But Ceng Tianshun seemed to enjoy it. He opened his mouth wide and nodded with a smile.
After waiting for another moment, the fourth contestant to pass appeared.
The one who appeared in the center of the field was the one who was framed by Ye Kong, Shao Chenzui. He was covered in blood and was staggering. It was obvious that he had suffered a serious injury.
This made Ye Kong a little surprised. He originally thought that this brat would not be able to withstand the attacks of so many spirit beasts. But he didn't expect that this brat would actually persevere. It seemed that this brat not only had some strength, but his will was also very firm. He would rather be injured than retreat.
"Great Scholar Ye, you really have a good method!" Shao Chenzui walked over. His words were filled with anger.
"Well said, well said. I also didn't expect Brother Shao's strength to be so extraordinary."
"I hope that in the next round, we will be able to get our turn earlier!" Shao Chenzui coldly snorted and no longer paid attention to Ye Kong.
After a while, the other contestants arrived one after another. But those who arrived later were basically all injured. It seemed that their journey was not that easy. There was no one who was as clean as Ye. All of them were dripping with blood.
The first round of the competition ended like this. More than one thousand and two hundred contestants were eliminated. There were also a few who died in the canyon of the Beast Hunter Realm. They were buried in the mouths of the beasts. Not even their bones were left. In the end, there were still more than one hundred contestants who finished the competition.
That day's competition ended here. After all, there were not many who could pass as easily as Ye did. The second round of the competition was scheduled to be held in three days.
The second round of the competition was a face-to-face fight. Lin Jiexing, Ceng Tianshun, and Shao Chenzui were all looking forward to fighting against Ye as soon as possible! Lin Jiexing let him take advantage of Shao Chenzui, and Shao Chenzui suffered a big loss. So they couldn't wait to teach this bastard a lesson.
After this round of competition, everyone in the Iron Painting Academy had a new understanding of this great scholar Ye. They had long heard of his reputation as a rogue. Now they finally saw it for themselves. He was indeed a rogue and despicable enough. Everyone was indignant. They began to remember the spirit stones they had bet on the City Well Devil Sect. In the end, who would win first place? Please don't let it be that despicable rogue scholar!
In these three days, it was unknown how many cultivators couldn't sleep. The City Well Devil Sect was also very cunning. Not only did they earn spirit stones, but they also earned money from mortals. After the first round of the competition, they immediately opened up a new betting area for gold and silver.
It was different from the previous spirit stone betting. Although the rogue was looked down upon, his popularity did rise. Many people thought highly of him, and many mortals came to bet on him.
Different from those gamblers, all the contestants were most worried about the announcement of the matchup.
Almost all the contestants hoped to be in the same group as Ye Kong. After all, with their strength, they couldn't see through Ye Kong at all. All of them thought that Ye Kong was just lucky. So they wanted to be the hero and beat this despicable person up in front of everyone.
Similarly, they were most afraid of being in the same group as Ceng Tianshun. This kid was simply a battle maniac. Thinking about his iron fists that beat up spirit beasts, if they were to be the ones to feel uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Ye looked very relaxed, but he was also waiting for the announcement of the matchup.
