Over the next few days, the rookie ranking competition was in full swing!
This year's rookie ranking competition was unprecedented in the Tai Ah Divine City for at least twenty years. It could be said that there were many experts!
Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran had charged into the top 3000 of the Earth roll on the second day of the ranking competition. This was indeed a result that people could be proud of.
Besides that, Gu Mu, who came from a commoner background, had also charged into the 4500 rank of the Earth roll.
Although he was slightly worse than Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran, it was still a ranking that the other rookies could not catch up to.
Now, Gu Mu was ranked third amongst the rookies with this ranking.
As for Yi Yun, who was highly anticipated and had a reputation above Gu Mu, he did not appear again.
The rookie ranking competition lasted for ten days.
The first four days were for the rookies to challenge each other. It was mainly for the average rookies to compete for a ranking. The matches were mostly from the top 10,000.
From the fifth day onwards, elites like Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran began to challenge the Earth roll's overall ranking.
According to the arena's rules, everyone could fight twelve battles a day. But these twelve battles were the maximum number of battles that could be fought when being challenged.
If one took the initiative to challenge others, then each person could only challenge twice a day!
Typically, rookies would challenge the Earth roll step by step. After all, these rookies were challenging the Earth roll for the first time. As for the strength of the veteran cultivators, they could only know after a battle.
Typically, rookies who aimed to enter the top 6000 would start from the 8000th place. They would slowly adapt to the veteran cultivators' fighting style and accumulate experience.
In six days, everyone could challenge twelve times. It was enough to determine their overall ranking.
And the rookie ranking competition's overall ranking was calculated in this way.
Every rookie would be ranked according to their highest ranking in history. The higher the ranking, the higher they would be on the rookie ranking. But if the rookies fought against each other, then the winner would be ranked higher.
The rules sounded complicated. It was actually very simple.
If Qiuniu was ranked 2900th and Chu Xiaoran was ranked 2800th, then even if Chu Xiaoran was defeated on the last day, she would still be ranked first! Then Chu Xiaoran would be ranked first amongst the rookies!
But if Qiuniu thought he was stronger than Chu Xiaoran, he would challenge Chu Xiaoran on the last day and win. [?] Ranked first is Qiuniu.
This rule was very fair. It could basically reflect the most impartial rookie strength ranking.
Otherwise, if the rookies were allowed to compete in the round-robin tournament, with over two thousand rookies, who knew how long it would take. According to the ranking rules of the Divine City, a person could only participate in a dozen or so matches at most.
The ninth day of the rookie ranking competition!
There were only two days left until the end.
At this moment, the rookie rankings were basically set. There were a total of three rookies that had charged into the top 5000 of the Earth roll. There were more than a hundred people in the top eight thousand.
As for Yi Yun. He was still absent from the competition! His ranking remained at 10,003.
For this, many people could not understand. What was Yi Yun doing?
"What happened to Yi Yun? I haven't seen him for so many days. Could it be that he was traumatized by Qiu Niu and Chu Xiaoran? "
Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran were too abnormal. Yi Yun had been absent the next day after watching their matches. He had not appeared until now, so it was inevitable for people to make guesses.
"He's not that weak. Besides, there's no need for Yi Yun to compete with Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran. He could charge into the top five thousand of the Earth roll and fight with Gu Mu for third place. If I can get third place, the rookie reward will be very enviable. "
There was a flurry of discussion. It was already the second last day. Even if Yi Yun were to participate in the arena battles now, he only had four chances to challenge. It was unknown what was going on in his mind.
But at this moment, not many people cared about Yi Yun.
Everyone's attention was focused on Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran. They all realized that. If there were no accidents, there would be a huge battle between Qiuniu and Chu Xiaoran in the last two days!
This battle would determine who was the number one amongst this batch of rookies!
Upon thinking of this battle, people could not help but feel excited.
At this moment, in the central divine tower, Elder Jian Ge was playing chess with the thin old man who brought Yi Yun to the saber tomb to understand the saber Dao Origins.
The two of them were old friends. For people at their level, it was not easy to have a confidant. This was because their lifespans were too long. In their long lifespans, many of their friends and family would slowly die of old age. There were very few people who could walk with them. []
"Cang Yan, how's that kid Yi Yun?"
Elder Jian Ge casually asked as he put down a piece. He had been paying attention to the rookie competition over the past few days.
"Yes, he hasn't come out yet."
The thin old man answered casually.
Elder Jian Ge frowned, "He hasn't come out yet? How many days has he been in there? For a Purple Blood realm junior to stay in the saber tomb for so long, what is he trying to understand? "
"He has been in there for 4-5 days." The thin old man played with the chess piece and chuckled, "I have been paying attention to him these few days. He has been meditating in front of the Saber Truth's 32 Words. Seeing him like this, I did not call him. Speaking of which, the price I gave the kid was one glory point for every day he stayed in the saber tomb. Now that he has been in there for so many days, I haven't even asked him for the glory points. I'm letting him off easy. "
"You …" Elder Jian Ge was speechless, "You still have the mood to joke around. This Yi Yun has been sitting in the saber tomb for so long, he must have gone astray in his understanding. Back then, Qin Haotian did not sit in the sword tomb for so long. "
The Saber Truth's 32 Words was too profound. It was not surprising for one to comprehend something wrong at the Purple Blood realm.
If he went further down the wrong path, it could affect his future development.
"Cang Yan, quickly bring that kid out. If he goes down the wrong path, correct him. Don't let him go further down the wrong path."
Elder Jian Ge always paid attention to the younger generation.
Many of the Tai Ah Divine City's Elders did not care about the younger generation that came to the Divine City for training. After all, even a genius like Qin Haotian only had a 1% chance of becoming a sage.
In the long lives of many elders, they were used to seeing geniuses. Slowly, they didn't care about them anymore. Only those who could become sages. Only those who could become sages could attract their attention.
"Sigh, you sure are long-winded. But the rookie ranking competition is coming to an end. It's time for that kid to come out. If not, he will miss it. "
The thin old man thought for a while before putting down the chess piece and walking towards the saber tomb.
At this moment, Yi Yun, who was in the saber tomb, was completely immersed in a trance-like state.
In Yi Yun's energy vision. Beams of energy flowed like dancing saber beams.
In Yi Yun's eyes, these words did not look like words, but more like dancing sabers!
The trajectory of every saber move was deeply imprinted in Yi Yun's irises.
In his soul sea, Yi Yun was constantly deducing and imitating.
He treated the strokes of the words as saber moves, and the energy flow in the strokes of the words. It also faintly matched the energy flow in Yi Yun's meridians.
"Every word and stroke's energy flow is the same as the energy flow in my meridians. It's amazing!"
Yi Yun muttered to himself. The person who carved the words had actually integrated the technique to control meridians' energy into the words. This method was unheard of.
This person's control over energy and nomological laws had clearly reached the point of perfection. It was no wonder that the first city lord of the Tai Ah Divine City wanted to use this tomb's dojo as the foundation of the Tai Ah Divine City.
Just as these thoughts flashed through Yi Yun's mind, he suddenly heard the "Zha Zha Zha" sounds of gears turning.
He turned his head to take a look. He saw the bronze door open and Cang Yan standing in the doorway.
This old man stroked his chin and looked at Yi Yun as if he was a caged animal. "Kid, do you know how many days you've been here?"
Cang Yan asked.
Yi Yun shook his head. "It shouldn't be short."
In the past few days, Yi Yun had been engrossed in cultivation. When he was hungry, he would eat the bone relics he brought with him. Yi Yun did not know how much time had passed in the ancient tomb.
"Yes, more than four days, not even five. So you still owe me three glory points. When the time comes, you will have to compensate me."
Cang Yan said with a chuckle. Yi Yun was stunned. It had been so long!
He really did not think so!
However, Yi Yun had gained a lot in the past few days. It was worth it to pay three glory points!
As for the rookie ranking competition, he had been absent for so long. With it ending in a day or two, he had to hurry.
Yi Yun also wanted the reward from the rookie ranking competition.
"Thank you senior for the reminder!"
Yi Yun cupped his fists and said. The old man was stunned. Eh, this kid was actually thanking him. Shouldn't he be denying the glory points?
"Kid, let me tell you. The Saber Truth's 32 Words in this ancient tomb points to the source. If you can understand it, it will definitely allow you to soar. It will allow you to be ahead of others the moment you start on the path of martial arts. You will not have to take many detours and you will have great achievements in the future."
"However, if one's cultivation level is too low, it's not easy to comprehend. In the past few years, I've brought many geniuses to the Saber and Sword Tombs to comprehend the essence of the Saber and Sword Tombs. However, only Qin Haotian managed to comprehend a trace of Sword Intent. As for Qin Haotian, he is a natural swordsman. His perception of the sword is extremely high! "
"Kid, you have to calculate your own ability. Try your best to understand what you can. If you can't, don't force yourself. You still have a long way to go. In the future, when you reach a higher level, it might be easier to understand again."
It was rare for the old man to say such words.
When Yi Yun heard this, he said again, "Thank you senior for your guidance!"
This kid!
Cang Yan stroked his chin. He could feel a trace of confidence in Yi Yun's eyes!
Not only did he not suffer a setback from understanding the Saber Truth's 32 Words, he had also gained confidence!
It was not a good sign for a person with a low level to gain confidence from understanding a high-level law.
Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for them to gain insight, so how could they have confidence?
To have confidence, it was most likely because they had gone astray, making them feel that it was easy!
"This kid, could he have gone astray? If he went astray, then his confidence would only have the opposite effect."
Understanding was something that could only be understood and not explained. Cang Yan could only rely on Yi Yun himself.
"I didn't let this kid come to the saber tomb, did I?"
Seeing Yi Yun's confidence in his bones, the skinny old man started to worry. This kind of person did not even know he was in the wrong.
At this moment, Yi Yun had already left the tomb's entrance.
He was rushing to participate in the rookie ranking competition.
It was still noon on the ninth day of the ranking competition. If Yi Yun signed up for the challenge, he still had four chances!
"Four chances should be enough!"
Yi Yun said silently in his heart as he walked towards the arena.
(The traffic during the Spring Festival might have been too congested, causing him to be late. I didn't sleep well last night. I slept during the day. The first two watch periods were before 12, and the third watch period was very late.)
