There is a sentence in "Birds and Summer Flowers": "The vast desert passionately pursues the love of a leaf of green grass, but he shook his head, laughed, and flew away." ”

-- Inscription

An Yingyan came over and gently touched An Yiran's head.

"Congratulations."

"It's nothing."

Both of them spoke in a flat tone.

Now this group of people is not outstanding, and among the people in the Holy Spirit Palace, the most high-profile is An Yiran.

Ning Xiaotong and Li Gang both won the third match and won the right to participate in the preliminary round.

After elimination, a total of 3,500 people participated in the preliminary round, and more than 1,000 people were eliminated in this first game.

The preliminary test is a melee.

This is even more brutal than the previous fight.

Participating in the preliminary round is regarded as officially participating in this five-case competition, and the previous contestants are only those who have been eliminated.

This second round of melee is exactly the same as Qiu Hao described.

There were three thousand of them, divided into three groups of one thousand each. Standing on a large round platform, being knocked out of the round platform, and those who can no longer stand up are counted as elimination. Finally until there are 500 people left on the stage. The number of 500 means that at least 500 people must be eliminated, and the number of people left can only be less than 500, otherwise all the monks on this round platform will be eliminated.

The scuffle took place the day after the roster was decided.

The group in the Holy Spirit Palace all got their new numbers.

An Yiran and Gongsun Qi, Ning Xiaotong were in the first batch; An Yingjie is alone in the second batch, and Li Gang and Gong Ling are in the third batch.

In the previous game, An Yiran and Gong Ling did not meet, and this time they did not.

An Yiran did plan to solve Gong Ling, the green tea, but of course it couldn't be in plain sight. She planned to solve the palace as soon as the Five Sects Competition was over, but her brother was afraid of any accidents, so he forcibly asked to solve it with An Yiran. An Yiran thought about it, Gong Ling was in the late stage of foundation building, and her current cultivation was slightly lower than that of Gong Ling. If it drags on too long, it will be very detrimental to them.

Because An Yiran, with Gongsun Qi and Ning Xiaotong are in the same group. The three of them plan to discuss countermeasures in the evening. Although An Yingwei was not in the same batch as them, he still went with An Yiran.

"Melee refers to the engagement of no definite object or target. Wen Tianxiang's poem "Xuzhou Daozhong" '400,000 people fought at one time, and the sky was dark and the water was beautiful. 'In a thousand-man melee like this, if you want to win. It is more important to have a certain amount of skill. Although the rules say that only 500 people will be eliminated in each melee, the monks know to each other that this is not possible. It is impossible for anyone to accurately count how many people have been eliminated, and those who remain on the stage will fight as hard as they can, even if the target number has been reached, they will still do their best to eliminate their competitors. It's better to let the people who stay on this stage only have their own people. ”

"And among the thousands of people, the same sect will naturally gather together, and there will be a small group of our five sects fighting on the stage. The other group is the loose cultivators. There are also monks among the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, I don't know if they will gather together to deal with the monks of our five major immortal cultivation sects. This is a matter of great luck, and no one knows the distribution of these three batches of personnel, all of which are randomly divided. As we all know, in the Wu Great Sect, our Holy Spirit Palace, that is, the Liuyun Sect in their eyes, is the weakest, because we have been closed for a long time, so among the remaining sects of the five major sects, they will reject us, and it is very likely that they will want to solve the people of our sect. And in the eyes of the monks of the Scattered Cultivation and the Scattered Cultivation Alliance. We are a big sect, so we will not tolerate staying on the stage. Do you know what this form represents? ”

The breeze is blowing, and the inn at night has a quiet atmosphere. In a small private room, four people sit together to analyze the situation about tomorrow's scuffle.

Gongsun Qi talked a lot. All he said was the embarrassing situation faced by the people in their Holy Spirit Palace, all in one sentence. This made An Yiran look up to him a lot, worthy of being raised in the world, even if he always knew that he would have a lot of everything.

"This means that we are at risk of being attacked by two groups of people as soon as we come up."

Ning Xiaotong had been listening quietly and calmly answering the topic about Gongsun Qi. Just looking at her current appearance, she couldn't imagine that she had such a deep affection, all poured into the man in front of her.

"Yes." Gongsun Qi no longer dislikes Ning Xiaotong as a dirt bun. I don't know why, from a certain day on, even if Gongsun Qi sees Ning Xiaotong, he won't laugh at her anymore, "That's right, our team in the Holy Spirit Palace may be caught between the two teams, but!" We still have a chance......

"It's not possible for all of them to gather together, and in the midst of the practice, they will be divided into many small groups. And in the Kunlun faction, the Huangshi faction, the Luoyang faction, and the Qingcheng faction, the disciples led by Kunlun Mountain are naturally the most likely to win in the eyes of all the monks, but, in fact, between the disciples of different sects, it seems to be very harmonious, but as long as there is the slightest misunderstanding, this alliance will be disrupted. Gongsun Qi's smile was a little sinister, but everyone present sensitively understood what he wanted to express.

"It means secretly releasing dark arrows, right, and then blaming the people of other sects." An Yiran said with a smile, "But in this case, the situation on the scene will become more chaotic, and all alliances and small groups may be disrupted." ”

"Yes, that's what you do. While these alliances are shattered, we are striking at each of them. ”

An Yingwei didn't speak, and he had to admit that this person named Gongsun Qi did have some resourcefulness. But the method they said did not suit him, he did not know the monks in the second group, but if he was allowed to unite with the monks of the Holy Spirit Palace, he could not fully trust them, after all, they were just strangers who had nothing to do with each other, how could they establish the most crucial trust between each other at such an important moment?

However, Gongsun Qi's statement gave him a new way of thinking. He can cast a dark arrow, and on the round platform, there will inevitably be people who are alone with him, and those groups of alliances will also have lost members. After a certain number of people are eliminated, he will take advantage of the situation to unite with these people. This kind of alliance is much better than the fluttering promises at the beginning, after all, there are common interests.

"Okay, then we'll do that tomorrow."

"Then let's try it tomorrow."

An Yiran and Ning Xiaotong both said in agreement.

There was still a hint of entanglement in her expression and looked at Ning Xiaotong...... Some hesitation (to be continued.) )
