Concubine Xia seemed to notice Tang Jue's strangeness, turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Tang Jue thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's nothing. ”

"The draw is over, and the game is about to start." Concubine Xia didn't ask much, looked at the huge arena and the eight rings on the field, and said, "The eight games are going on at the same time and ending at the same time." ”

Tang Jue nodded, showed a hint of a smile, and said, "Eight battles are fought at the same time, I'm afraid it's very exciting." ”

"I advise you not to expect too much from them." Concubine Xia shook her head slightly, and said, "The martial arts of the first hundred and twenty-four people are uneven, and the main purpose of this first round is to eliminate those who have poor martial arts. ”

Tang Jueyan nodded, he also knew this truth, and said, "If the eight games are played at the same time, it will take a full sixteen groups. ”

"Hmm." Concubine Xia looked at the many participants in the waiting area on the periphery of the huge martial arts arena, and said lightly, "This first round is the most boring. ”

Just as Concubine Xia finished speaking, I saw the referee on the high platform get a list in his hand, hold the microphone in his hand, and say loudly, "Now, the first round has officially begun!" Players from one to the sixteenth are invited to arrive in their ring! ”

As soon as the referee's words came out, all the audience suddenly erupted in cheers! Amid cheers, the top sixteen players walked out of the waiting area.

Soon, each major sect confirmed whether there were any disciples of their own among the former sixteenth, but all of them would erupt into a huge shouting and cheering!

Don't think that a hundred people in a sect will have a very small voice, on the contrary, it will be very large. These people are all masters of the inner rivers and lakes, once they use their internal force to shout, it is the power of thousands of people!

In the midst of this frantic shouting, the sixteen contestants all assembled in their respective rings. There is a referee in each ring to ensure that the game is fair, impartial and to avoid casualties as much as possible.

The so-called fairness is to observe whether any contestants are taking illegal drugs. There are doping drugs in sports among ordinary people, and there are many drugs that tap the potential to improve internal strength in a short period of time in Neijianghu. This drug is difficult to detect with a single instrument and can only be observed by humans.

The so-called impartiality is to ensure that no player uses some underhanded means to win, such as using poison, using hidden weapons, etc.

There were no byes in the first eight fights, and everyone stood in the ring, staring at their opponents.

No one wants to be eliminated in the first round in full view, especially in this once-in-a-decade event, with so many eyes from the same door behind them, so everyone is more cautious than ever.

"Match!" The referees on the high platform shouted loudly, and then the referees in the eight rings raised their right hands.

"Let's go!" The referee on the high platform immediately shouted, and the referee in the ring retreated quickly!

Sou!

Ding Ding Ding!

In an instant, fierce battles began in five of the eight rings, intending to strike first! And the other three places are cautiously confronting, and no one dares to make the first move!

However, after the sound of weapons clinking in the other five places, these three places could not calm down, and they fought one after another!

With the belief that they can't lose, everyone bursts out with twelve points of strength! In less than a minute, blood was falling everywhere in the ring, and the battle was extremely tragic!

Tang Jue looked at the battles in the various rings in the distance with a solemn gaze, and didn't say a word.

Compared to Tang Jue's seriousness, Concubine Xia was not interested in the battle on the martial arts arena at all, and couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Tang Jue so serious, and asked softly, "Did you think of anything when you looked at them?" ”

Hearing this, Tang Jue's body shook slightly, turned his head to look at Concubine Xia, smiled, and said, "Yes, I remember that I have had such an experience before. ”

"In the Tang Gate?" Concubine Xia asked.

"Hmm." Tang Jue nodded and said with a smile, "I told you that the Tang Sect will have a martial arts competition before the Chinese New Year, and I have also participated. I still remember the first time I participated, I was beaten in the first round, and it was really uncomfortable. ”

Concubine Xia smiled when she heard this, and said, "I didn't expect you to have this kind of experience." ”

"What about you?" Tang Jue looked at Concubine Xia and asked, "Isn't there such a competition in your Heavenly Altar Divine Sect?" ”

"Yes." Concubine Xia didn't hide it, nodded slightly, and said, "But I've never participated." ”

Tang Jue was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Why?" ”

In Tang Jue's view, no matter how strong a person is, he has grown up from weakness, and in the process of growing up, he naturally has to participate in this kind of competition.

"Because it doesn't need to." Concubine Xia looked at Tang Jue, a cold mist appeared in her beautiful eyes, and said, "Everyone's fate is different, I am different from others, I have been destined to become the sect leader of the Heavenly Temple Divine Sect since I was born. ”

Tang Jue was stunned again when he heard this, looked at Concubine Xia a little stunned, and only reacted after a while, and asked, "Why?" ”

Concubine Xia didn't answer, but turned her head to look at the martial arts arena, but a cold air had already appeared on her face.

This is a kind of cold that rejects people thousands of miles away, which makes Tang Jue feel that even if Concubine Xia is by his side, it is as if he is standing on the top of an iceberg hundreds of miles away.

He knew that the answer to this question was probably where Concubine Xia was secret.

It's just that Concubine Xia doesn't answer, and he won't ask aggressively. Taking a deep breath, he had no choice but to turn his head to look at the competition in the ring again.

Three minutes have passed by now, and two of the tournaments have already been decided. Both the victors and the losers were scarred and blood splattered everywhere.

The eight games were all about the same quality, but they were all coming to an end after another three minutes. Soon all six matches were decided, several losers were already unconscious and were hurriedly carried away, and some were covered in injuries even if they won, making people doubt that he would be able to participate in the next round of fighting.

Tang Jue looked at these people's martial arts competition and his expression was serious, and he did not despise these people because their martial arts were not as good as him. On the contrary, he has enough respect for everyone.

The match was brutal, and no one would pause for the first match, and soon the next group of sixteen players gathered in their respective rings and began the game under the orders of the referee.

It was still a piercing staggered sound of weapons, and it was still a fierce and abnormal game, but there was a clear difference in strength in this group. A Shaolin disciple defeated his opponent within ten moves after the start, and another disciple of the Wudang Sect was not inferior, defeating his opponent in fifteen moves. After the game, the two of them were not injured, and even their internal strength did not consume much.

The other six matches were also over in five minutes, with heavy injuries still suffering from the victory. With the cheers and lifelessness of the surrounding sects, the second group also ended.

The game went faster than expected, and the two groups ended just half an hour later. Eight rings have begun to show a lot of cracks and rubble due to the two fierce battles, but the game will not repair these, but simply clean up the weapons or debris in the ring and start the next one.

After seeing that everything was cleaned up, the referee on the high platform looked at the list in his hand, took the microphone and said loudly, "Contestants from No. 33 to No. 48, take their places in their respective rings!" ”

At the beginning of a new round, all the people in the audience turned their eyes to the ring. There are some people from the big sect who have already gotten the news that Zuo Leng will appear in the No. 1 ring of this group!

As one of the two favorites to win the championship, all the sects and contestants wanted to really see how strong this big disciple of the summer resort really was!

Tang Jue was also looking at the ring, but what he noticed first was not Zuo Leng, after all, it was still difficult to see a person's face at such a distance, and the first thing he saw was naturally Su Jiao, after all, the big double ponytail and a pink body were too obvious.

"She's on the field." Tang Jue said.

"Hmm." Concubine Xia also noticed Su Jiao's figure, but her eyes were stunned, and then they darkened, and said in a deep voice, "Look at her opponent." ”

Hearing Concubine Xia's words, Tang Juecai turned his gaze to the person who was standing in the same ring as Su Jiao, and was shocked in his heart!

"Zuo Leng?!" Tang Jue's face was stunned, and then his face sank!

Although he has only met Zuo Leng once, some people's faces are easy to remember, this Zuo Leng is obviously a villain!

"Hmm." Concubine Xia's voice was slightly deep, and she said, "He is a ruthless person, although Su Jiao's martial arts are not bad, but he is a little far from him, and he will definitely lose this battle." ”

Tang Jue looked at Su Jiao, and then he knew why he felt that Su Jiao's pace was wrong when he drew lots. She must already know who her opponent is, but with her eldest lady's temper, it is probably absolutely impossible to admit defeat!

"She's going to get hurt." Tang Jue frowned, and his voice was very deep.

"Hmm." Concubine Xia nodded and said, "But there is no way, this is a game, and no one can interfere." ”

As she spoke, Concubine Xia's eyes looked at the tallest audience in the distance.

Next to the King of the East China Sea, sat an old man. The King of the East Sea seemed to have a lot of respect for the old man and kept talking to the old man.

A sneer appeared on the corner of Concubine Xia's mouth.

I'm afraid, this old man can't sit still now, right?
