With the black dragon's order, the eighteen huge obsidian rings suddenly lit up around them, which was a defensive formation specially prepared for the battle between the monks.

There are black dragons and dragon kings, the great cultivators of the Yuan Infant Stage, who are presiding over the formation outside, even if there are players from the Yuan Infant Realm fighting inside, as long as the cultivation is not higher than those who preside over the formation, then it will not be able to break the barrier outside.

And above the sky, eighteen huge phantom screens were neatly arranged above the ring.

Through these screens, the organizers will be able to broadcast all the events in the ring on a global scale.

The first session of the world's first martial arts meeting will be a global event, at that time, whether it is cultivation, abilities or all kinds of monsters and beasts, they will be unreservedly displayed in front of everyone.

This will be an important point in time, and from then on, mankind will enter a new era - the era of cultivation.

When the era of cultivation comes, human beings can develop the cultivation civilization without reservation, and with the efforts of all mankind and all races, it is foreseeable that a brilliant cultivation civilization is rising.

During this period, all the players who have made great contributions to this event or won unprecedented honors will surely go down in history and be remembered by future generations.

Therefore, this event will be more important than ever. Both the organizers and the contestants are extremely cautious, hoping to become famous in this competition.

"In order to ensure the fairness and impartiality of this competition, all the contestants will randomly choose their opponents, and our judges will also invite monks from the previous era to be judges. ”

"Here's our panel of judges!"

As the black dragon's words fell, eighteen ancient monks dressed in simple white robes and with long hair fluttering in the wind walked to the ring. And by sensing the aura on their bodies, Xia Ping was surprised to find that the cultivation of these people was all in the Yuan Infant Stage.

Some ancient monks who have cultivated to a high level have even approached the Dragon King's kind of people.

Others may be very surprised by the appearance of these ancient monks, but Xia Ping has long been mentally prepared, after all, he can be regarded as the first batch of people who have seen ancient monks.

In this way, the number of high-ranking monks on the earth far exceeded his expectations.

Originally, in Xia Ping's estimate, as the most orthodox Xiuzhen country on the earth, Huaguo can be said to be far superior to other countries in terms of quantity and quality.

Even the overall number of Yuan Babies in Huaguo will not exceed fifty, and this is still Xia Ping's consideration of some incognito masters in Huaguo.

If you speculate by this standard, there should be no more than two hundred Yuanying monks in the world, but now, counting the Four Elephant Divine Clan and the Ancient Monks, the real number will probably double.

However, this is a good thing for the earth, after all, only when there are more high-level cultivators, there is a better chance of resisting the invasion of demons.

Just when Xia Ping's mind was flying, a ball of light suddenly appeared in front of him, and in the ball of light, Xia Ping could still vaguely see the colorful points of light flickering inside.

"What is in front of you now is the lot you need to draw, and every point of light in the ball of light represents a player other than yourself. ”

"Once you select one of the dots, the player information represented by that dot will disappear from the other players' orbs, so you don't have to worry about your name being re-chosen. So now, start your choice. ”

Xia Ping looked at the ball of light in front of him, thought for a moment between his eyebrows, and then did not make a move immediately, but set his eyes on Xia Ling beside him.

At the same time, Wu Xinyu and Mao Tu also turned their eyes in unison. Seeing the glittering look on their faces at this moment, Xia Ping immediately understood that they were probably holding the same thoughts as himself.

"Master, can you see through the personal information of the contestants hidden in the light spots?"

Xia Ping and the three of them said in unison.

"Of course. ”

I saw Xia Ling yawning boredly and said, "Although the prohibition inside is a bit whimsical, it is still relatively easy for me." ”

"Why, you want to see who your opponent is?"

Xia Ling looked at Xia Ping with a curious expression.

"Hehe," I don't know what Mao Tu suddenly thought, and he involuntarily showed a foolish smile, which made Xia Ping and Wu Xinyu involuntarily take a step back.

"Master, can you see which of these contestants are in the foundation building period? There must be some of them, right? Can you help me choose one?"

Mao Rabbit said coquettishly while holding Xia Ling's arm affectionately.

Originally, because of his own strength, Mao Tu didn't have much hope for Yao Ji's requirements for him.

But after seeing today's lottery ceremony, hope suddenly rekindled in Mao Rabbit's heart.

Of course, even if he failed, he still had just recognized Master Cangyue Zhenren to take him in. But how can it be as comfortable as following Yaoji by the side of Cangyue Zhenren.

Cangyue Zhenren has a lazy personality and almost doesn't teach his disciples much, plus there are so many female disciples of the Cangming faction, he is inconspicuous when he arrives inside. It is likely that you will have to do your own tasks to earn a living.

But it's different next to Yao Ji, although Yao Ji is the only one there, a little lonely, but this is also beneficial.

As an ancient god, Yao Ji not only cultivates to the sky, but can also make herself feel free as long as she gives a little guidance to herself.

In addition, there are countless good things in Yaoji's mausoleum, and if you throw a little bit to yourself, you can use it for a lifetime.

Of course, the most important thing is because Yao Ji is the only one by her side. As long as she is still by her side, won't those good things be her own sooner or later?

"Okay, okay, it's not just a few foundation building players, it's simple. ”

Xia Ling didn't think about it that much, it was better to say that even if Xia Ling knew, he wouldn't care, it was nothing more than a little pet.

"Since you've already chosen, let's choose all of you. Pick all the foundation building period, and then you will be able to have an easier time in the qualifiers. ”

While speaking, Xia Ling couldn't help but cast some seemingly identical points of light to Xia Ping, Mao Rabbit and Wu Xinyu.

"I knew Master, you were the best. ”

After getting the information about his opponent, Mao Rabbit jumped up excitedly again.

Because her opponent turned out to be a player from Africa who was in the early stages of building the foundation. In the early days of foundation building, I can kill a small thumb, and the preliminaries are not too easy.

And although the opponent in Xia Ping's hands is stronger than Mao Rabbit's opponent, it is only the middle stage of foundation building, and for himself, there is basically no difference.

Don't look around, the opponents of their master and Wu Xinyu turned out to be players from Africa.

It seems that Africa's lagging development has also limited their cultivation, so much so that most of the players who can represent their entire continent are actually in the foundation building stage.

Thinking of this, Xia Ping couldn't help but feel a little silent for the brothers in Africa.

Originally, with their numerical advantage, they still have a high probability of entering the main competition. But providence made people, and they actually ran into Xia Ping's team of cheaters.

Although he was very sympathetic to their plight, Xia Ping still did not refuse the gift from his master. After all, I aim to enter the top ten, and if I can expose a little less strength in the early stage, I will expose a little less.

It's a big deal to help the brothers and sisters in Africa in the future.

"There are a total of 2,000 places in this competition, and there are 1,678 contestants. But only three hundred and sixty of you will be able to enter the main tournament and win the rewards. Now that everyone has drawn their opponents, I now announce that the preliminary round of the world's No. 1 martial arts club has officially begun!"

"Klein from North America vs. Adele from Oceania!"

"Zhang Hang from the Asian region against the white star of the White Tiger Ancestor!"

"From ......"

As the host Heilong read out the names one by one, two contestants suddenly appeared in the ring, where there was only one referee. All eighteen rings were like this, as if as long as the black dragon pronounced the name, it would be able to throw people in.

"In fact, it's true, those points of light have been entered into spatial coordinates and information by them. As long as we touch the point of light, they can lock on to each and every one of us. ”

Xia Ling explained.

"But isn't it in their hands that our lives and deaths are in their hands?"

Xia Ping frowned slightly.

"That's not it, the Yuan Infant doesn't have such a strong spiritual power. As long as you resist this force with your heart, you can still refuse to teleport. ”

As if to verify the correctness of what Xia Ling said, one less player was removed in the fifteenth ring.

"Ahem!"

At this moment, I only heard the black dragon cough lightly with a little embarrassment: "I just teleported you to the ring and will not harm you, so you don't resist this summoning force." Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I won't use force!"

Sure enough, after hearing the black dragon's words, the African player with a blindfolded face had already appeared in the ring.

Seeing that this African player only has the realm of building foundations, Xia Ping is really relieved. Even if he can resist this summoning force, then he must have no problem.

"Xia Ping in Asia, against Kiliza in Africa!"

"It's my turn so soon!"

Hearing the black dragon call his name, Xia Ping was obviously stunned, as the protagonist of all the attention, shouldn't it be the finale?

It's a pity that the black dragon couldn't hear Xia Ping's words, and Xia Ping at this time only felt that a strange energy suddenly enveloped his body. This force Xia Ping is familiar with, it is the power of space.

However, this spatial power was indeed very weak, and he felt that he could get rid of it with a little effort.

Of course, Xia Ping would not be stupid to do experiments at this time. Let go of his mind, and immediately after, he felt the scene in front of him change suddenly. An African in a grass skirt with his swarthy upper body exposed in the icy cold of the Antarctic continent appeared in front of him.

This should be his opponent this time.
