Chapter 35: Scuffle
When Mu Feng came to the assessment square, it was already overcrowded, and on the huge square, I don't know when eight giant rings had been erected, each of which was the size of more than half a football field.
It stands to reason that such a big arena is not small, but when I think that there will be more than fifty cultivators fighting on it, it is too small to count, and the martial arts are fighting, and there are all kinds of martial arts, swords, guns, swords, and halberds.
And the ring is so big, I'm afraid that many geniuses won't be able to show their strengths, and they will be squeezed out by others. Of course, seeing the truth in the subtleties, people with real strength will not care about the environment.
Since there are only eight rings, and the second round will be divided into a total of sixteen groups, in this way, only eight groups of eight will be played at the same time.
didn't let the candidates wait too long, and the second round of assessment began in full swing. When all sixteen referees were in place, Ye Wufeng stepped into one of the rings and announced loudly:
"The second round of the enrollment assessment of the four schools and the four prefectures has officially begun. ”
When the scene was quiet, Ye Wufeng said loudly:
"First of all, let me talk about the specific matters and relevant rules of this round of assessment, please listen carefully to all candidates!"
"Because the number of people who passed the first round of assessment was so large that it reached 1,758 people, but there were only 16 groups, that is, there will be 30 groups with 55 people in the melee, and there will be two groups with 54 people in the melee. ”
After saying so much in one breath, Ye Wufeng paused, took a deep breath, and continued:
"Of course, these are not the main points, the key points are the following, first, it is not allowed to hurt people's lives in the melee. Second, it is forbidden to use contraband such as pills that can improve strength. Third, only the two who end up standing in the ring can advance to the next round. Of course, before starting the ring melee, candidates who passed the first round had to draw lots. ”
After another pause, he continued:
"One thousand seven hundred and fifty-eight lots, except for the fifteenth and sixteenth lots, which are fifty-four, the first to fourteenth lots, are all fifty-five, and those who draw the same lot number are divided into a group. Now, all cultivators, please line up and draw lots. ”
Ye Wufeng, who was turning around and wanted to leave, suddenly turned around again and said:
"I'm sorry, I forgot to make it clear before, and there is one sentence that I didn't say, that is, the signs in the hands of the major referees are all disrupted and then reassigned, so the ranking is the same wherever it is drawn!"
After saying this time, Ye Wufeng really returned to the referee's seat.
Next, the lottery ceremony, due to the arrival of sixteen referees at the same time, the draw time was very short, and it was completed in less than a stick of incense.
It's not that one person is lucky, it's that he is lucky to play later, so that he can watch the other groups play first and learn more about it.
After the lottery ceremony, two referees passed through each ring, one in front and one behind, and after the referees were in place, they called out the candidates who drew the No. 1 to the No. 8 lot. The rings are numbered from Ring 1 to Ring 8, and those who draw the No. 1 lottery go to the No. 1 ring, and so on.
Under the referee's order, all the candidates who drew the No. 1 to No. 8 lottery were like chicken blood, and everyone couldn't wait to jump into the ring corresponding to their own number, trying to occupy a better position, that is, the center of the ring, because it seemed that a misstep could be avoided here.
However, when the scuffle began, the faces of those candidates who thought they occupied a good position turned green, because the position was good, but it provoked the joint attack of other candidates who were not in a good position, and they were all in danger, and they were not embarrassed.
In a scuffle, the first to occupy a good position was the first to be eliminated. The dismal ending of the eliminated also sounded the alarm for other candidates who had not yet been eliminated, and for a while, a large number of the best middle positions were vacated, and all the candidates were fighting on the edge of the ring.
Mu Feng looked at the ring from ring to ring, and found that the first three rings were nothing special, until he saw the fourth ring, and then saw a familiar face on the fourth ring, a person who once had an intersection.
She is Murong Qingyi, the eldest lady of the Murong family, and the first day of Laiyang City. However, the first day was not very easy at this time.
There are still twenty-two people left in the No. 4 ring, and the twenty-two people don't know if it was discussed or for some other reason, anyway, the two of them are defending each other.
Murong Qingyi's opponent is also a woman, and both of them are beginners in Huahai, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Murong Qingyi at this time, under the attack of the opponent like a butterfly wearing flowers, looks extremely awkward, only has the ability to parry, and has no power to fight back.
Sure enough, after barely surviving eleven moves, he was knocked out of the ring by the other party's fluttering palm, and at this point, Murong Qingyi, who often regarded himself as a genius on the first day of Laiyang City, did not even enter the top thirty-two, and ended the freshman assessment journey of the four sects and four mansions.
has the same fate as her, as well as Mu Lin, the first day of the Mu family.
When Mu Feng saw the seventh ring, there were only fifteen people still standing in the ring. Except for a man in Tsing Yi in the ring, no one shot at him, and the other fourteen candidates were also fighting one-on-one, and Mu Lin's opponent was also a woman, and they were all beginners in Huahai.
However, Mu Lin was even worse than Murong Qingyi, because she only insisted on a pitiful five moves in the other party's hands, and was kicked away by the other party.
She has always been proud, but after getting out of the ring, she was reluctant to leave for a long time, and she didn't seem to figure out why the gap was so big as that of the first stage of Huahai.
At that moment, maybe all her pride had been shattered, but she didn't know if it would form a demon in her heart and affect her cultivation in the future.
Mu Feng looked at Mu Lin's dejected appearance, and there was no ridicule in his heart, after all, it is not necessarily a good thing to experience failure in youth.
In many cases, smooth sailing is far less important than a memorable failure.
Of course, this needs to test whether a person's psychology is really strong and whether they really dare to admit failure.
Mu Lin can be regarded as one of the best Tianjiao in Laiyang City, and Murong Qingyi is even more proud of the first day. Now that the two Tianjiao have fallen at the same time, I don't know if it will give a heavy blow to other Tianjiao in Laiyang City.
Of course, these are all afterwords, Mu Feng didn't pay too much attention, but shifted his attention to the No. 8 ring, at this time, there were only six people left in the No. 8 ring who were still competing for the final qualification.
In the No. 8 ring, Mu Feng saw another acquaintance - Mu Jing, a low-key genius who was a blockbuster in the Mu family selection competition, Mu Feng didn't know what attributes Mu Jing had.
But at this moment, watching her fight in the ring, she obviously has a calm breath and is at ease. The opponent is a male cultivator of the middle level of Huahai, who is a small realm higher than her, but the realm is slightly vain, and it is obviously not as solid as Mu Jing, so that when he really fights, he seems to be in a hurry, only has the ability to parry, and has no power to fight back.
A few rounds later, he was wrapped around by Mu Jing and kicked out of the ring with one kick.
Mu Jing ended the battle, breathed in place, and recovered her strength At the same time, she was also carefully observing the back-and-forth battle between the other two teams of opponents in the No. 8 ring.
At this time, as long as there is still the strength to fight, no one is willing to give up lightly. Sure enough, the two groups of candidates on the No. 8 ring were fighting inseparably at this time, with all kinds of ultimate, and the sound of weapons colliding was endless.
In this way, Mu Jing was given plenty of time to rest. Originally, the characteristic of this round itself was a scuffle, even if Mu Jing suddenly joined either side and knocked one of them out of the ring, it would be understandable, but she didn't do that.
Maybe she has her own ideas, after all, watching the game is also a good learning opportunity.
After about half a pillar of incense, the other two groups in the No. 8 ring finally decided the winner, and now only Mu Jing and a male cultivator wearing a black power suit, with short hair, was about the same age as Mu Jing, and another male cultivator in a gray robe with a medium build.
There are still three people left in the No. 8 ring, but in the end, only two people need to advance, so that the three of you look at me, I look at you, and no one took the initiative to attack for a while.
After all, the three of them are not stupid, and they all know that whoever attacks first will be easily targeted by the other two.
However, this confrontation did not last long, and after the two male cultivators secretly exchanged glances, they suddenly attacked Mu Jing in both directions.
The incident happened suddenly, Mu Jing didn't seem to expect that the two would attack her, and she was caught off guard and was almost knocked out of the ring.
Suffering from this danger, Mu Jing, who came back to her senses, calmed down, she had already stepped out of the ring with half a foot, her eyes were quick, she grabbed the hem of the man in the long shirt, and almost pulled the man in the long shirt out of the ring.
How could the man in the long shirt be willing to leave Lei Tai like this, as a last resort, he had to exert his foot strength and retreat, so that he did not get off the stage and pulled Mu Jing back to the ring.
Mu Jing, who narrowly escaped the catastrophe, reacted very quickly, and after gaining a new foothold in the ring, she clicked her feet and rose into the air.
As a last resort, the man in the long shirt could only roll on a lazy donkey on the spot, although he was embarrassed, he finally avoided Mu Jing's kick.
The man in the long shirt who dodged Mu Jing's kick, but he didn't know when the "ally" short-haired man in the dark night went around his back, and just as he was about to get up from the ground, the man in black suddenly attacked him from behind with a palm.
The man in the long shirt, who felt the danger, subconsciously thought that Mu Jing was behind him and wanted to fight back.
But when he saw that the person behind him was a man in black, he was slightly stunned, and he missed the best time to fight back and the best time to defend, and was caught off guard by the man in black.
With just one palm, the man in the long shirt was like a ball and was slapped by the man in black and stumbled towards Mu Jing.
Such a good opportunity, how could Mu Jing miss it. Seeing the man in the long shirt stumbling over, Mu Jing crossed her legs, swept the man in the long shirt, swept his feet off the ground, completely lost his balance, and then kicked him directly out of the ring.
"Despicable!"
The angry voice of the man in the long shirt dragged out a long tail note over the ring, and he said goodbye to the four new students of the four sects and four mansions with reluctance and regret.
The exit of the man in the long shirt is in line with the sentence: there are no eternal allies, and there are no eternal enemies. In the face of interests, it seems understandable to stab a knife in the back.
Ring No. 8 is the final ring to determine the winner and loser, so far, the top 16 of the top 32 in the top eight groups have been decided, I have to say that Mu Jing's performance has been recognized and respected by many people.
Mu Jing used her actions to tell many people that as long as they are willing to work hard, the small family can fly out of the Golden Phoenix.
Mu Jing was able to enter the top thirty-two, Mu Feng was naturally happy for her, in Mu Feng's impression, when he was said to be a waste, what really didn't dislike him was his fourth uncle Mu Duxing, but that guy had not been in Mu Mansion for a long time, so it was difficult to see him.
Mu Jing is Mu Duxing's daughter, Mu Feng is of course happy for her.
Mu Feng didn't do anything yet! Mu Jing ran over to him, her eyes full of gratitude:
"Thank you Brother Mu Feng this time!"
Mu Feng knew what she was referring to, and laughed:
"You're welcome, it's all the result of your efforts, come on, keep up the good work!"
"I will!"
After Mu Jing finished speaking, she showed a rare smile at Mu Feng.
Mu Feng and Mu Jing are the same year, and they are only a month older than her. However, that brother is still well deserved.
Next, through statistics, Ye Wufeng notified the list of the top 16 people who took the lead in the melee to enter the top 32.
After the briefing, it was announced that the second half of the melee would begin.
At the beginning of the game, Mu Feng said goodbye to Mu Jing and walked to the No. 7 ring without hurrying.
Since there are only eight groups of people, each group has a ring, so the nine groups of the No. 1 ring, the ten groups of the No. 2 ring, and so on, the fifteenth group where Mu Feng is located will naturally go to the No. 7 ring.
