Chapter 202: Clever Tips
The nineteenth day of the lunar month is also the second day of the Ningzhou Hanxing Conference.
There was light snow and cold winds, and there was no sunshine from yesterday.
However, outside the Hanxing Monument where Xunyang Street and Hengluo Street meet, the crowd surging is several times more than yesterday.
After all, the cold wind and flying snow couldn't suppress the concern of the people of Ningzhou about this Hanxing Conference, especially after the battle between Xiao Mu and nearly ten disciples of the Tianque Realm yesterday, the people of Ningzhou were excited, and the people who came to cheer for Xiao Mu and the children of Ningzhou naturally became much more.
In all fairness, before today, the people who knew something about the situation of the Hanxing Conference were not optimistic about the results of the Hanxing Conference, or could not bear to ignore it, or could not accept such a failure, so some people chose not to come here to witness that scene. But yesterday's courage gave the timid Ningzhou a glimmer of hope, and hope, even if it was too slim, was an irresistible temptation for people in deep despair. Out of instinct, they will subjectively magnify this hope in their hearts, so at this moment, tens of thousands of people gathered in front of the ring where Xiao Mu was, staring at the young Zixiao Army General with bright eyes.
They expected him to be able to single-handedly repel nearly ten Heavenly Que Realm disciples as he did yesterday, and at the same time deter more alien disciples and let those foreigners run away. They longed for the miracle to continue......
The civil official in charge of this side of the ring has been replaced, and yesterday after the curtain came down on the Hanxing Conference, he impatiently submitted his resignation, so he can be regarded as a smart person, knowing that the people's anger is surging, and he will die if he touches it. The new civil official is a fresh face, about thirty years old, although he wears a Confucian robe unique to civil officials, but he can still see the angular figure under the clothes, and his body is filled with a solemn aura that although he tries his best to cover it, he still reveals a little hint of solemnity. It was the breath that could only be condensed after many years of crawling and rolling in the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and there was no precedent for the Sanxiao Army armor in Ningzhou to be transferred to the civil office, so it was conceivable who was promoted to the position of a civil official and happened to be in charge of Xiao Mu's ring, who was standing behind him.
......
"Today's Hanxing Conference begins, please go to the ring everywhere to register, and also ask the champion of the defending side to go to the designated ring nearby, once the challenge starts and does not arrive at the ring within half a pillar of incense, it will be regarded as surrender. Under the Hanxing monument, the civil officials in charge of reading out the Hanxing Conference read out the beginning of the Hanxing Conference, and the civil officials and officers and soldiers in charge of maintaining order in the ring suddenly took action. The people also looked nervously at the location of the first ring, after all, in their opinion, the Tianque Realm would obviously not be so resigned, and it would make a comeback today.
And what they expected was that the words of the civil official had just fallen, but after more than ten breaths, the person in charge of the No. 1 ring suddenly said loudly: "Tianque Realm Juning challenges Xiao Mu, the top of the list. β
As soon as these words came out, there were bursts of exclamations in the crowd.
Of course, they expected that the Tianque Realm would attack again, but they didn't expect that the attack would come so quickly and so blatantly, which was very different from yesterday's poor dagger.
A girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old jumped lightly and landed in the ring, the girl's body was petite, her face was lovely, like a beautiful embryo that had not yet grown, but it was difficult for people to associate it with the word so-called master.
"Wait a minute, the next challenger will come to the stage, and the winner will be determined before the top of the leaderboard can be played. The civil servant said again.
This is the original rule of the Hanxing Conference, the challenger on the second day must defeat a challenger before he can challenge the champion, and if the second challenger has not appeared, the challenger can directly challenge the champion after the registration deadline for today's challenge. This rule is also intended to give some relatively fair protection to the champion who has won the ranking after a battle between the parties on the first day. It is precisely because of the existence of such rules that the first two days can be set for the approximate rounds, after all, on the third and fourth days, the requirements for the challenger will become more and more stringent, and it will be more and more difficult to attack again.
And after the Tianque Realm disciple named Ju Ning came to power, the scene fell silent.
After a while, there was no second challenger on the stage.
After all, Xiao Mu's performance yesterday is obvious to all, and the other foreign disciples are either afraid of Xiao Mu's strength, or they also understand that the Tianque Realm is bound to win the top position, and if they fight at this moment, there is a high probability that they will not be able to win the top position, and secondly, it is very likely to offend the Tianque Realm, such a thankless and stupid move, naturally no one will do it.
And the disciples of the Tianque Realm would not be stupid enough to hinder the plans of the same sect. Of course, this also involves the singularity of the Han Star List, the north of the Nuo Da, there are nearly more than 100 states, and there is a Han Star Monument above the boundary of each state, this thing is extremely magical, it is rumored that it was left by the ancient gods, and the main household registration is stored in the place where the Han Star Tablet is located, then the Han Star Tablet will be ranked according to its age, and at the same time, once there is a competition such as the Han Star Conference within a radius of dozens of miles, this thing will automatically cover both sides of the competition, once one side stays in the hand, no matter how realistic the two of them play, they cannot escape the monitoring of the Han Star Tablet, and the above ranking will not changeγ Therefore, the Tianque Realm couldn't do it, and then sent another person to fight with this Ju Ning and send him to fight against Xiao Mu.
Time passed minute by minute, and no one came to the stage to challenge again, but the rest of the rings were lively.
The reason why most of them didn't choose to start on the first day was because at that time, the foreign races and the Tianque Realm had not yet made a move, and even if they achieved some rankings, they would change in the various attacks and defenses that followed, and Wei Lai did not taste a single defeat, but fell from the ninety-seventh place to the two hundred and fifty places is the best example. Although the second day of the shot will face one more round of opponents, but those who are confident to wait until the second day to shoot will either be strong and not afraid of two battles and two rounds, or they just want to win a relatively low position and be able to ensure that they can enter the mountain and river map, and the competition they face is relatively weak.
Whether it was for the sake of the former or the latter, the second day of the Hanxing Conference revealed an atmosphere full of gunpowder from the beginning, after all, although today's rules were harsh, they had not yet reached the point where they were completely unacceptable.
Today's war, no longer as yesterday, probably happened between the foreign clan and the disciples of Ningzhou, with the defeat of most of the children of Ningzhou yesterday, except for the first and second positions of Ah Cheng and Xiao Mu, most of the top rankings on the rest of the Hanxing list were occupied by foreign races, and today's foreign clans in order to win a good ranking naturally have to attack the foreign clan. This is also an important thing, although there is still a qualifying tournament on the last day, and its competition system is related to the lower, the lower one challenges the upper one, and no longer needs to consider the interference of the other challengers, but there is also a rule in the Hanxing Conference, and the challenger can challenge by crossing a maximum of fifteen places. In other words, if someone only finishes at the bottom of the rankings in order to avoid the fierce battle of offense and defense in the previous four days, and never retains his strength to enter the ranked battle, if he wants to advance to the first place, he needs to defeat at least 22 opponents in a row to do so. Therefore, such a plan is not feasible for normal monks, and achieving a ranking that is relatively in line with their expectations today is the most important thing.
As the battle for the ranking continued, as long as someone succeeded, many of the children of Ningzhou at the bottom of the ranking suffered from the pond fish, and the rankings were extended along with the losers.
After such a morning, Wei Lai's ranking had fallen to three hundred and seven, and this falling speed did not stop because of this, but with the fierce battle ahead, there was a trend of becoming more and more rapid, and it was only a matter of time before he fell out of the top three hundred and twenty-five.
The people around them who thought they would see the scene of Ningzhou's children being inspired by Xiao Mu yesterday and fighting back bravely today couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Although the children of Ningzhou have not been challenged today, no one has also mustered up the courage to attack the former position, just blindly watching their rankings fall again and again, and if this continues, it is estimated that on the last day, it will be difficult to find the names of half of Ningzhou's children among the top 325 on the entire Hanxing list. On the other hand, the Tianque Realm is fiercely offensive, even if it is to face two rounds of war, the disciples of the Tianque Realm have also succeeded one after another, and for a while, the top 100 positions on the Hanxing List have been occupied by the Tianque Realm, and they are still expanding.
"It's been a long time, what do you want to do as a son-in-law?" Xiao Baihe, who was sitting in a box at the entrance of the street, frowned and looked at the declining ranking of Ningzhou's disciples on the Hanxing list, and asked with a puzzled expression.
Xu was also a little uncertain, but remembering that Wei Lai was confident yesterday, he still gritted his teeth and said: "You know a fart, this is called waiting for work." β
"After today, it will be more and more difficult to hit the rankings again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Xiao Baihe sneered.
Xu Trapping's face was a little unbearable, and he was about to say something more at the moment, but before the words came out, Ning Luyuan on the side said softly: "The future of Ningzhou depends on these young people, since we old things have chosen to believe them, let's wait for the changes and don't add to the chaos." β
When the two heard this, they fell silent.
But at this moment, the shouts of the civil officials suddenly came from the ring at the end.
"The Immortal River Peak of the Hundred Deer Country won the same victory and obtained the qualification to challenge the ranking of two hundred and seventy-three. β
"Please come to the stage in half a pillar of incense!"
The sound was not loud, but the moment it sounded, the surrounding people began to surge towards the ring at the end, for no other reason, the champion named Xiao Jue was the first Ningzhou disciple to be challenged by foreign clans today.
And Xiao Baihe and the three of them who were sitting in the box of the wine shop also cast their eyes at that place at that time, although they also had the same thoughts as those people, but in addition to this, they also had another layer of relationship - this young man named Xiao Jue was not only a disciple of Ningzhou, but also one of the many disciples who were called by Wei Lai to the Juling Pagoda yesterday and gave them the so-called "trick plan". In their opinion, no matter what Wei Lai's plan was, now that the other party had knocked on the door at this time, there was no need to hide it anymore.
As the civil official's chant fell, the foreign disciple named He Butong jumped and landed on the ring, and Xiao Jue also came to the ring at the same time.
He Butong's body was surging, with a murderous posture, and the people around him were also excited when they saw this situation, they wanted to see the children of Ningzhou win today's first battle.
When the two sides took their positions, the civil officials shouted: "Bidu begins!"
He Butong's eyes lit up with murderous intent, and his body was about to kill suddenly.
"Wait!"
But at this moment, his opponent suddenly shouted.
He Butong stopped, frowned, and asked with a sneer, "What?
Xiao Jue smiled slightly, and then ...... in the eyes of many doubts and expectations
He nodded and smiled, "yes." β
