The second round had yet to begin.
The Rank-9 with the crown on his head suddenly said, "Deputy Commander Li, the purpose of the youth competition is to enter the God Territory. After we enter, we will still be allies.
"Now, the killing is too intense. Should we adjust?"
The old man with the sun halo on his head frowned slightly. "In the past, almost no one died in the Mentality-Vitality Unity state. Everyone could enter. "This is also the greatest guarantee that human martial artists can resist the God Territory martial artists.
"Now, the killing is too intense …"
The old man looked around, glanced at Fang Ping, and continued, "In the past, there were middle-stage and high-stage martial artists left, but very few. Most of them were Peak Rank-6 and Mentality-Vitality Unity.
"If the killing continues like this, it will be dangerous."
"In the past few years, everyone also killed, but not so ruthlessly. Even Mentality-Vitality Unity was killed.
The relationship between human countries was very complicated. They cooperated and killed each other, weakening each other's strength.
This year, however, other than Ka Meng and Tu He who had just played dead, there was no Peak Rank-6!
This time, among the participants, there were two Grandmasters, 7 Mentality-Vitality Unity, and 24 Peak Rank-6.
Now, there were 6 Mentality-Vitality Unity people and 16 Peak Rank-6 people.
The number of Peak Rank-6 people who died was more than the number of Upper-stage.
As the two of them spoke, the old monk from the Ancient Buddha Sacred Land also said slowly, "The killing is too intense. It has exceeded expectations."
Just like military exercises, there would always be some death indicators.
However, the number of deaths was also controlled within a certain range.
According to the past situation, it would not exceed 20%. In other words, the death toll of more than 14 people had exceeded everyone's expectations.
Now, there were already 16 people dead.
This was only the first round!
Now, the youth representatives from all sides were fighting with anger.
If this continued, although Sino Nation's performance was the strongest, they still had 15 people. They could not kill Fang Ping and the rest. If they were really in a killing frenzy, who would care about the identity of the peerless progeny? Half of the people from Stellarsky City would probably die.
Just as Li Deyong was deep in thought, on Sino Nation's side, Minister Wang set up a barrier and said in a low voice, "Fang Ping, we can't continue killing! If we continue killing, we will become the target of public criticism.
If we provoke the five parties, two Rank-7s and five Mentality-Vitality Unity people, half of our people will die … "
If that really happened, Wang Jinyang and the others would be in danger.
If the first Essence and Blood Fusion couldn't kill you, then the second would continue to challenge you. No matter how fast your recovery speed was, it was still limited.
If he managed to survive one, there was still hope, but if there were two, he would definitely die.
As for feigning death and admitting defeat, there weren't many martial artists who would do such a thing.
Most of the time, death was a small matter. The country and personal honor were the most important things.
Fang Ping glanced at everyone. Du Hong said in a low voice, "We've already intimidated everyone. It's not a good time to be ruthless. If we don't, they'll start fighting amongst themselves. This way, we can maximize our chances of getting more slots.
Fang Ping … The quota was the most important.
"One quota almost represents the birth of a Grandmaster. No matter how many Rank-6s we kill, it's not as important as one more Grandmaster."
The Youth Tournament was not just about fighting.
When you have the strength to intimidate everyone, you don't necessarily need to be cruel and ruthless. That will cause everyone to join forces to attack you.
Before this, there were still challenges between the various parties. However, in this round, if Sino Nation were to kill again, it would probably be Sino Nation's turn.
After hearing that, Fang Ping thought for a while and said, "I don't have the intention to kill. I didn't want to kill anyone from the beginning. But Carmon and the others … "
"This is a tradition. They're also the first person from Pantheon that I've killed …"
Although the death of his comrade saddened Du Hong, he was still rational.
Killing some people was a tradition in every competition. He was the first to kill someone from Pantheon to establish his dominance.
Similarly, the powerhouses from other countries killed to establish their status and prove their strength.
As he said that, Du Hong said in a low voice, "If you really want to vent your anger … enter the restricted zone first! After entering, it'll be extremely chaotic. No one will care if you die in the restricted zone. However, if you kill too much in the youth tournament, especially the descendants of the top … you might have to bear some consequences. "
Fang Ping understood. His eyes narrowed, and he nodded. "I understand."
After he finished speaking, Li Deyong and a few Rank-9s discussed in low voices for a while. Then, they said, "In the second round, representatives from various countries are allowed to replace the participants in the field to admit defeat!"
As soon as this was said, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
There were not many who could ask a martial artist to admit defeat on their own.
However, it was still possible to ask the elders in their family to admit defeat on their behalf.
Just like the martial arts university championship, there were not many participants who admitted defeat. It was mostly the Grandmasters from each school who did so.
This way, the casualty rate would be greatly reduced.
Each country had Rank-9s watching over them. They had extremely sharp eyes. It was easy for them to sense whether the other party could kill their own people in one hit and admit defeat in time.
…
Fang Ping curled his lips. The so-called rules of the top could not be changed.
However, when it came to the issue of a large number of casualties, it could still be changed easily.
These people deserved to be killed.
After killing so many, naturally, they would not dare to treat it as a game anymore.
He was really not too afraid. Even if he encountered the two Rank-7 powerhouses, he was not too worried. At the beginning of Rank-7, the strength of Mentality was limited, and so was Celestiality.
It was impossible to kill him in one hit.
If he could not kill him in one move, Fang Ping might not be able to exhaust the other party to death. However, in the end, the outcome would still be determined.
Grandmasters … might not dare to waste time with him.
Such young Grandmasters were not familiar with them. Obviously, they had just broken through. Fang Ping also sensed for a while. There were no Middle-stage Rank-7 existences.
The rules changed. Du Hong said again, "This round mainly eliminates the people from Pantheon of Gods and Totem City. The remaining two families have Grandmasters. Andes Mountain is the weakest and has a full team. The other families will not let them go. Let them fight it out! "
As for the World of Ten Thousand Pagodas, there were not many people left.
Carmon did not want Sino Nation to continue targeting them, so it was best to keep an eye on the other families.
Fang Ping nodded slightly. Du Hong stood up and said, "I challenge you!"
As he said that, he pointed at an Upper-stage Rank-6 martial artist from Totem City.
That person's expression changed slightly. He thought that Sino Nation's Mentality-Vitality Fusion was going to attack him. He could not help but look at his own Rank-9.
Totem City's Rank-9 was a tall, muscular man with tattoos all over his body.
He looked extremely ferocious!
Seeing this, he glanced at Du Hong and said directly, "Admit defeat!"
He did not even have the intention to send someone up. Upper-stage Rank-6 against Mentality-Vitality Fusion, they would be killed in three moves.
Du Hong won directly. Next was Luo Sais.
Luo Sais stared at Sino Nation's side for a long time. In the end, he chose a black-robed martial artist from Andes Mountain with an ugly expression.
…
Seeing this, Fang Ping lost interest in watching the battle. He looked at Minister Wang and asked, "Minister, now that I'm almost certain to get the quota, shouldn't you tell me about the restricted zone?
I still don't know anything. I don't know what to do. "
Minister Wang shook his head. "Don't ask because I'm not too sure either. When the quota is confirmed, there will be someone to answer your questions."
Beside him, Su Haoran said, "When the competition is over, we will tell everyone. President Fang, you don't have to be too anxious."
As he said that, Su Haoran seemed to hesitate, but he still said, "After entering the restricted zone, I hope that President Fang can take care of Li Fei and the others …"
Su Haoran added, "What happened to the Yang family doesn't represent Star City's attitude. Li Fei and the others have also interacted with President Fang a few times. President Fang knows their character."
The second generations of Star City did not have bad personalities.
Even after they found out that Fang Ping had tricked five Divine Weapons away, they did not say anything.
Because of their families and the strength of their ancestors, these people were naturally arrogant, but their temperaments were relatively simple.
Whether it was love or hate, it could almost be seen from the surface.
On the other hand, the martial artists from the outside world had more experience. Each of them was a wily old fox. When they reached Rank-6, almost no one would be a simple fool.
For someone as simple and honest as Tang Feng, if you treated him as an honest person, you would not even know how you died.
Fang Ping did not give any promises. He only smiled and said, "You're too kind, High Grandmaster Su. I still don't know anything yet …"
Su Haoran did not say anything else. It was fine if Fang Ping did not take care of the others. The key was that this guy did not enter the restricted zone and set them up.
…
In the second round, because the representatives could represent the contestants to surrender, the speed of the battles was faster. The death and injury rate was indeed greatly reduced.
Unless it was an evenly matched opponent, both parties would fight passionately. Sometimes, when the battle was really intense, the life and death of martial artists would be decided quickly. Sometimes, a Rank-9 might not be able to determine the outcome of the battle in that instant.
In this way, when the second round was over, only one person would die.
The two Rank-7 Grandmasters were still silent like statues. They did not challenge anyone. No one knew what they were thinking.
At this moment, Li Deyong walked over and said softly, "Don't use up all your challenge chances. After three chances, those two may challenge you.
"Du Hong, you must at least leave one challenge chance. Don't challenge again in the next round!
"The same goes for the others. Unless someone is sure to be eliminated and there are enough people, you must ensure that you get a place."
As soon as these words came out, Fang Ping suddenly came to a realization!
Yes, he almost forgot about this.
If he really used up all three chances and was challenged and lost, then he would lose his chance.
Fang Ping's three chances to be challenged had already been used up. However, this guy had arrogantly announced that Grandmasters would challenge him. Even if he used up all his chances, he would still accept it.
If he used up all three chances and was challenged and lost, then he would lose his place.
Although the rules of the competition were simple, they contained a lot of information.
Some strategic deployments even included the problem of a martial artist's patience.
If you could not last until the end and could not help but want to take advantage of others, then you might end up being taken advantage of by others.
Very soon, it was Jiang Chao's turn to fight.
Up until now, this fellow had never experienced a single battle.
No one challenged him. Before this, he did not have the chance to challenge anyone either.
Now it was his turn. Jiang Chao looked at the few Middle-stage Rank-6 martial artists for a long time. Finally, he looked at Su Zisu and said softly, "Zisu, why don't we spar? Just fight casually. Why don't you admit defeat?"
Su Zisu was about to explode!
This damn fatty was so shameless!
How could he say something like that?
Jiang Chao did not care about this. He said in a low voice, "The other Middle-stage Rank-6 are all outsiders. If they have some trump card and kill me in one move, then who am I supposed to reason with? "Don't you think this makes sense?
Zisu, let's fight. How about we decide the winner with rock-paper-scissors … "
Su Haoran's expression was dark. He said coldly, "Jiang Chao!"
Jiang Chao pursed his lips. Suddenly, he looked at Li Yiming in the front row and grinned. "Brother Yiming, that Ultimate Inner Armor of yours … Can you lend it to me for self-defense?"
Li Yiming gave him a look, slightly displeased. However, after some thought, he still took off his leather armor and threw it at him. He said angrily, "Don't lose it!"
"Of course!"
Jiang Chao was all smiles. He looked at Fang Ping and chuckled. "Fang Ping, can you lend me Rosais' door-plank sword?"
Fang Ping frowned. "You're using this? This is a Divine Weapon. If you lose it … "
"If you lose it, I'll compensate you!"
Fang Ping glanced at him. He was slightly helpless, but he still nodded.
After that, Fatty Jiang began to borrow things from everywhere.
After a while, Jiang Chao was fully armed!
He was wearing a peerless inner armor, an accessory that could block spiritual energy, a huge door-sized greatsword, and a full body armor that he had previously wrapped around himself, including a helmet.
Everyone was looking at him. Jiang Chao was still unfazed. He put on the damaged armor that Fang Ping had used to kill the Mentality-Vitality fusion opponent.
Only then did Jiang Chao go up the stage.
After going up the stage, he was not in a hurry to choose his opponent. Instead, he stabbed the giant door-plank sword into the ground. However, he realized that he could not stab it no matter what. This troubled Jiang Chao.
He did not have the ability to stab the sword into the solidified arena.
Fang Ping watched for a while. The corner of his mouth twitched. He said in a low voice, "He … Is he going to use the sword as a door plank? To block people? "
"Probably … I guess?"
Wang Jinyang was powerless. He did not want to say anything more.
Did this guy have to do this?
Jiang Chao dawdled for a while. When Li Deyong was getting impatient, he suddenly pointed at one of the people in Heaven of Gods and said loudly, "You, come up here!"
Su Zisu could not help but curse in a low voice, "Shameless! He prepared for a long time. I thought he would at least challenge someone of the same rank … In the end, he chose an injured Middle-stage Rank-6! "
There were a total of 5 Middle-stage Rank-6s in each country. These 5 people had fought before. Among them, the one from Heaven of Gods had fought twice and had some injuries.
In the end, Jiang Chao, an Upper-stage Rank-6 with extreme defense, went up to pick and choose, and chose this person.
"I should have guessed it!"
Fang Ping shook his head helplessly. This fatty did not look like a martial artist at all. He did not know how he cultivated to Upper-stage Rank-6. There was no justice in this world.
As for the other descendants of the Paragons, no matter how afraid they were of death, they would not show it too obviously.
As for the one in the Ten Thousand Pagodas World who pretended to be dead, that was also because he felt that there was a gap in strength.
Jiang Chao was a little higher than the other party, yet he was actually so afraid of death.
Li Deyong's face was a little dark. The person from Heaven of Gods was also dumbfounded. After this fatty did this, he even thought that he had achieved Mentality-Vitality fusion!
Otherwise, did he need to do this?
Speechlessness was one thing, but the battle still had to be fought.
When this person went up the stage … everyone witnessed an exciting battle.
Jiang Chao did not fight the other party at all. He ran from the beginning to the end, and only when he was free would he turn around and slap the other party with his greatsword.
He was fighting with the intention of exhausting the other party!
After all, the other party could not kill him in one move. It would be difficult for him to even penetrate his defense.
He was also a little higher than the other party, and his Vitality was stronger. If he dragged on until the end and ran out of Vitality, he could only rely on his physique to fight … the other party would not be able to penetrate his layers of armor.
This battle made Fang Ping doze off while watching.
The people from all sides who were watching began to chat. Everyone had almost forgotten that there were still two people competing on the stage.
Fang Ping even had the heart to take out his poker cards and play cards with Old Wang and the rest.
Fang Ping dozed off, but Wang Jinyang said in a low voice, "This fatty … do you think he's pretending to be weak to eat the tiger?"
"Him?"
Fang Ping raised his eyebrows slightly. "It's hard to say. But the degree of shamelessness he has some of the demeanor of a powerhouse. Powerhouses … the stronger they are, the more shameless they are!"
Beside him, the expressions of Minister Wang and the rest changed!
What the hell was this!
Could we be as shameless as this fatty?
Could an Upper-stage Rank-6 fight a Middle-stage Rank-6 to this extent?
The female vice-chancellor of FMS glanced at Su Haoran, who had an ugly expression on his face, and teased, "He's really amazing! Obtaining victory at the lowest cost. He's a good seedling. "
Su Haoran let out a soft snort!
Good seedling … I'll give you a good seedling. Do you want it?
The two of them fought for more than an hour. They fought until the sun was about to set. Jiang Chao finally won!
He won. He had worn down his opponent. He had worn down a Middle-stage Rank-6 martial artist until he was panting heavily. He really did not want to fight anymore, so he took the initiative to admit defeat.
This was the first contestant in the entire arena who took the initiative to shout "admit defeat".
He did not want to fight anymore!
No, he did not want to run anymore. He really could not run anymore. He could not chase anymore. That damn fatty was running with all his might. He was too tired from chasing, and he still had to guard against others hitting him with a greatsword. He really could not take it anymore.
At this point, almost no one wanted the two of them to continue.
As soon as he admitted defeat, Li Deyong accepted it immediately and said quickly, "Next!"
As for Jiang Chao, he walked back valiantly, his head full of sweat. "I won. It wasn't easy. I should be able to get a spot, right?"
When he said that, everyone was speechless.
No one spoke!
The challenges of the Upper-stage martial artists gradually ended.
At this moment, there was a slight commotion in the crowd.
The Middle-stage Rank-6 had begun!
And the right to challenge had once again fallen to Fang Ping.
This time, who would he challenge?
Fang Ping glanced at Carmon, then at Rosais and the others. After a while, he smiled and said, "I want to keep the third chance. So, the second challenge might be my last!"
When he said that, Carmon's expression changed slightly.
Fang Ping had his eyes on him since a long time ago.
Just when Carmon thought that Fang Ping was going to challenge him, Fang Ping suddenly looked at Butuoye, whose long hair touched the ground, and said, "Fake monk, why don't we have a match?"
When he said that, many people were a little surprised.
Du Hong and the others also looked at Fang Ping. They had agreed before that this round would be against Heaven of Gods and Totem City.
Fang Ping said in an inaudible voice, "The Ancient Buddha Sacred Land is too strong. They also have a Grandmaster. We must weaken their strength. The Andes are not that scary."
The Ancient Buddha Sacred Land was silent. Now, the remaining people were second only to Sino Nation. They had the most people and suffered the least losses.
As for the Andes, after the previous challengers, there were already people who were heavily injured. There would not be many who qualified.
When they heard him say that, everyone realized that the Ancient Buddha Sacred Land seemed to be too strong.
These monks were silent. Now there were still 9 people who were unharmed.
Among them, there was one Grandmaster, one Mentality-Vitality Fusion, and three Peak.
Butuoye looked at Fang Ping, stood up and said, "Since General Fang is interested, then Butuoye would like to experience …"
Before he finished speaking, his body shone with a golden light, like a real Buddha had appeared.
Fang Ping did not care about this. He smiled and said, "Monk, you're not bringing your staff?"
"It's just a worldly possession."
Fang Ping squinted and smiled. "It's a Divine Weapon, after all. Although it can't be used to its full potential, if I don't bring a weapon, wouldn't it seem like I'm bullying you, monk? You should bring it."
"No need."
"Monk, do you really want to fight to the death with me?"
Fang Ping's expression suddenly turned ugly!
When he said that, many people looked at him strangely!
The other party did not bring a weapon, but he said that he wanted to fight to the death with him. What kind of logic was that?
Alright, everyone understood what he meant.
If he did not bring a weapon, there would be no benefits to snatch, and Fang Ping would beat him to death.
If he brought a weapon, he might not beat him to death after snatching something.
Butuoye's expression changed. After a while, he said, "General Fang, please!"
He did not want to talk nonsense with this guy. Did this guy really think he had him?
As for not bringing his staff, he was indeed worried that it would be snatched away. He had seen Rosais's greatsword being snatched away earlier.
Now, even if it was not a draw, he could admit defeat.
Even if he was slightly injured, it was better than losing his Divine Weapon.
Seeing that this guy was so stubborn, Fang Ping was extremely annoyed. Out of five Divine Weapons, he had only snatched two. He still needed three more.
If he could not snatch them, would he not have to pay for three Divine Weapons?
…
Because Butuoye refused to bring a Divine Weapon to the arena, Fang Ping did not hold back either!
Without saying a word, he materialized his Mentality and self-destructed in the next moment!
Butuoye's entire body shone with a golden light. There was no sign of his Mentality being intimidated!
Now, Fang Ping knew that this guy had an accessory that could block Mentality.
As for Butuoye's golden light, Fang Ping observed it for a while. It was not a golden bone, nor was it a real golden body. It could only be said that it was a slightly stronger half golden body, but it might not be stronger than his half golden body.
An accessory that could block Mentality was still shockingly valuable!
Fang Ping stared at the other party. He did not hesitate. If one self-destruct was not enough, then he would do it again!
If the second time was not enough, then he would do it again!
Now, it was not a big problem for him to self-destruct thirty to fifty times.
No matter how strong the accessory was, it was impossible for it to completely block the self-destruction of a materialized object.
Under everyone's dumbfounded expressions, Fang Ping self-destructed seven to eight times in a row. Butuoye finally could not take it anymore. The golden light on his body began to dissipate, and blood flowed out of his seven orifices!
Even if he wore an accessory, it could not stop Fang Ping's attack!
Just as Fang Ping was about to step forward and end the other party with a slash, the Ancient Buddha Sacred Land's Rank-9 powerhouse roared, "Admit defeat!"
"Damn it!"
Fang Ping was furious!
The second round's rules had changed. To him, he was extremely unhappy.
It was not as satisfying as the first round. As long as the other party could still fight, then they could continue.
However, things had come to this. Everyone was staring at him. Fang Ping glared at Butuoye fiercely. He wiped his neck, his face ferocious. Butuoye's heart palpitated slightly.
A thug had really appeared on Sino Nation's side.
