Gui Hongyun, who had been eliminated by Prince Zhang Yang, woke up. His expression was extremely cold.
Although he had woken up, he still sat there as if he had been petrified, not saying a word.
If it weren't for the flickering light in his eyes, he would have thought that he had not woken up.
Gui Hongyun had held on for so long and had always been in the top ten of the Saint List. There should have been no suspense, and he should have had a place in the top ten.
It was a supreme honor to be in the top ten. Not only for himself, but also for the family behind him. It was a great honor, a supreme glory, and a glorious achievement worthy of praise.
However, at the last moment, he, Gui Hongyun, the young talent of the Gui Family, one of the eight great ancient families, who had high hopes for him, was eliminated and fell out of the top ten.
Although his ranking was not bad, the eleventh place on the Saint List was considered a very good ranking.
But if he fell out of the top ten, the difference of one place was like heaven and earth.
The generous rewards were all for the top ten.
All the glory was for the top ten.
Losing one round made him fall from the sky to hell. What kind of blow was this? How could he accept it at this moment?
The top ten of the Saint List had been decided. Everyone was thinking about what would happen next. Would there be any new changes?
There were only ten people left in the Realm of the Gods. Would the Student Competition end here, or would it continue?
If it continued, would there be more people whose points would be reduced because of failure? If that was the case, wouldn't there be hope for those who were ranked at the bottom to return to the top ten?
If that was the case, wouldn't it be very strange?
At this moment, a brilliant radiance suddenly blossomed from the Divine Realm. Ten figures walked out from the Divine Realm at the same time.
Ying Long World God waved his hand and took back the Realm of the Gods. Qin Xiao and the other ten people landed on the martial arts platform.
Everyone's eyes fell on Qin Xiao and the others. Was the Student Competition over?
It was possible. If the top ten were to be ranked according to their points, they would have already been ranked. If it ended like this, there was nothing wrong with it.
Many people on the martial arts platform frowned.
After all, the ten of them had never fought with each other before. Therefore, it could be said that none of them were willing to submit to the other.
Who wouldn't want to be in the top five?
Who wouldn't want the number one ranking?
First place, that was a supreme honor. The highest honor was there. Who wouldn't want to take first place?
The first place and the other rankings were on two completely different levels.
"It's over? It can't be, right? "Qin Xiao and Zhang Yang looked at each other. Obviously, both of them did not want this to end so quickly.
Although Qin Xiao was currently ranked fifth on the Saint Rankings, he had achieved his initial ambition and goal of entering the top five.
But if there was a chance to fight again, Qin Xiao would definitely be willing to do so.
The question now was, was it going to end just like that?
Was the ranking decided just like that?
Qin Xiao hadn't had a chance to fight with a genius yet. He felt somewhat regretful about it.
"Well, everyone —" God Ying Longshi suddenly waved his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet.
God Ying Long World was about to speak. Naturally, no one dared to speak again. Soon, everyone became quiet.
After a period of silence, World God Raindragon turned his gaze towards Qin Xiao and the others. He said, "You were able to last until the very end of the competition and enter the top ten. Let me congratulate you in advance. Congratulations. You are all the best among the first batch of students of the Saint Academy. You are proud. "
"Although this kind of student competition might not be 100% fair, it should still be relatively fair."
"Since you have reached this step and entered the top ten, it is enough to prove your strength and talent."
"You will be the focus of the Saint Academy's training in the future. All the resources will be open to you, and you will be given priority."
Hearing God Ying Long World's words, a lot of voices came from the student seats.
In fact, everyone knew that if they could enter the top ten, they would definitely receive a lot of preferential treatment.
However, when World God Raindragon made this announcement, everyone felt rather uncomfortable. They couldn't help but feel as though they were being treated unfairly.
Ordinary people didn't care, but those who ranked at the top had a lot of complaints in their hearts.
In fact, they all had the strength to enter the top ten. It was not necessarily impossible for them to compete. It was just that their luck wasn't very good, so they couldn't enter the top ten.
For example, Gui Hongyun. Did you say he didn't have the strength to enter the top ten?
That was obviously impossible. Gui Hongyun definitely had the strength. He had been seventh on the Holy List for so long, which was enough to prove everything.
But unfortunately, he was defeated by Prince Zhang Yang in the last battle.
And Li Yuanji. Didn't he have the strength?
He was one of the most powerful contenders for the top five, but unfortunately, he was eliminated by Qin Xiao.
God Ying Long World glanced at the people in the student seats and said, "I know some of you may feel uncomfortable, unbalanced, and unfair."
"It's reasonable for you to have such thoughts. It's not a bad thing for young people to be hot-blooded, impulsive, and ambitious. "
"So you still have a chance in the future. Of course, you have to work hard to get the opportunity. It won't fall from the sky. "
"We'll talk about it later."
Hearing God Ying Long World's words, those who had the ambition to enter the top ten quieted down.
At least they still had a chance in the future. That was a good thing.
World God Raindragon once more turned his gaze towards Qin Xiao and the others. He continued, "You are in the top ten in terms of points, but I'm afraid that some of you won't be able to accept your current ranking."
"Besides, the Old Man said before that Emperor Xuanyuan would choose a personal disciple from among you."
"And the Old Man will also choose one or two personal disciples, so you have to continue to be tested."
"After all, in the Divine Realm, you are still restricted. You can't exert your strength in many aspects."
"Therefore, the next competition will be held on this martial stage. You can fight with real swords and spears, and have a good competition. You can decide the final winner and the final ranking based on your strength. "
"Now it's not about points. The points competition is over. The ten of you will start a new ranking competition."
"In the end, the personal disciples of Emperor Xuanyuan and the Old Man will be selected according to your ranking and your performance in the competition."
"Of course, the ranking is naturally the dominant factor."
Fight without restrictions?
Fight for the ranking based on strength?
Fighting for the ranking was not only a battle of honor, but also a battle of opportunities.
Emperor Xuanyuan would accept a personal disciple, and God Ying Long World would accept one or two personal disciples. Even if there were two, there would only be three places in total.
Fighting for three out of ten was still very fierce.
Therefore, he had to fight his way into the top five for this to be possible. He had to choose three out of the top five. This was probably the case.
If they could be in the top three, it should be basically a sure thing.
World God Raindragon's words instantly caused everyone's blood to boil once more.
"Haha, I knew it. How could it end like this? Well, it's very good. It's fair and just, and the opportunities are equal. Whether we win or lose, we are convinced. "
"Brother Qin Xiao, our opportunity has come. Haha, let's attack the top five together. We must make sure that we are in the top three. In this way, we will have a great chance to become a personal disciple. "
"Even if we can't become Emperor Xuanyuan's personal disciple, at least we will be chosen by God Ying Long World."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we can grasp it well, we will be rich." Prince Zhang Yang said excitedly to Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao smiled. He was also a little excited in his heart.
Although he ranked fifth in the points, it was a little embarrassing to be in the fifth place. He might not be chosen if he didn't move up or down.
If he had a chance to fight for the ranking again, he believed that his chances would be much greater if he could be one or two places higher.
"Let's do it. For this great opportunity, we have to fight for it. Brother, let's work hard together. "Qin Xiao said seriously.
Prince Zhang Yang also nodded seriously. Let's do it.
"Well, I will first announce the rules of the competition. You have to listen carefully. Don't break the rules. Otherwise, you will be judged to have lost directly. "God Ying Long World suddenly said.
Everyone quieted down and listened carefully to God Ying Long World's words.
"The first rule: You can't use your innate magical powers."
"The second rule: You can't use some rare treasures except for weapons below the level of holy objects. You can use auxiliary immortal treasures."
"The third rule: If there is a fight, the Old Man will decide the winner. If the Old Man wants to stop, he must stop. You can't hurt others' lives or foundation."
"The first rule is the rule that binds you. Now I will announce the rules of the competition and the way to play it."
"This competition is a one-loss elimination system. If you lose once, you will be eliminated."
"The specific rules and the way to play it is like this. First, the tenth place and the ninth place will fight. The winner will guard the arena. For example, if the ninth place is the winner, then the eighth place will fight in the arena."
"If the ninth place is still the winner, then the seventh place will fight in the arena. If the eighth place and the tenth place lose, they will fight again to determine the ninth and tenth place. "
"In the battle between the ninth and seventh ranked, if the seventh ranked person is the victor, then the sixth ranked person will fight in the arena. The loser between the seventh and sixth place will fight with the ninth place to determine the seventh and eighth place. "
"So on and so forth, until all the rankings are decided. From the bottom to the top. In this way, I believe it will be absolutely fair. Everyone's strength will be tested, and they will be able to determine the winner. "
"Does anyone have any questions about this?"
As soon as God Ying Long World finished speaking, Prince Zhang Yang said, "God Ying Long World, this kind of battle is not fair to the winner, is it?"
"The winner has already fought a battle and is exhausted in all aspects. If he continues to fight, he will be at a disadvantage."
World God Raindragon said, "You don't need to worry about that. I'll naturally help the victor recover and give him some time to rest so that he or she can continue on to the next battle in their best condition."
Childe Zhang Yang nodded his head. If that was the case, there would be no problem.
World God Raindragon was naturally capable of accomplishing something like this with ease.
