Chapter 59: The First Round Ends

This result can make these people led by Fan Ming of the Backer Branch very happy, they only know that Qi An is a young genius with a very fast cultivation speed, but they have never really seen Qi An make a move, and they have not even heard of him competing with anyone, they are all very worried about Qi An's lack of combat experience, and he is not the opponent of Mao Wuxi, after all, Mao Wuhui is the first place in the prefecture-level ranking in the Yiwu Branch, and his strength is extremely top-notch among all the prefecture-level powerhouses who participated. Who knew that Qi An impressed them, not only fought with Mao Wuxi, but even had a slight upper hand, and finally won the final victory with a protracted battle, which can be said to be a big surprise.

Everyone mistakenly thought that Qi An won Mao Wuhui by relying on a protracted battle, and no one knew that Qi An didn't even use half of his strength, and the reason why he did this was not to pretend to be low-key, but to use Mao Wuhui to test his moves, test and hone his newly created backer boxing method.

The result made Qi An very satisfied, although he only used the sealing fist style and the horizontal fist style in the battle, and the other styles have not yet been used, but a glimpse of the whole leopard, judging by Qi An, this set of backing boxing methods is already a very good combat martial art, and it will never be worse than other martial arts in the library of the backing mountain branch, and it still has a lot of room for improvement and improvement, and the potential is much greater.

The first round of knockout has been halfway through, the four groups of A, B, C and D have all completed the competition, and the competition of the next four groups will be held in the afternoon.

Judging from the twelve matches in the morning, except for three of the victors who were human-level peak martial sects, the rest were at least the powerhouses of the prefecture-level list, and the reason why those three people-level peak martial sects were able to win was also because their opponents were weaker. And in each group, there is a strong player on the prefecture-level list who has been eliminated, exactly four, namely Yu Hu of the Zhengwu Branch, Mao Wuyu of the Yiwu Branch, and Bu Feng and Wang Sheng of the Backing Mountain Branch.

The backer branch is a bit miserable, the three prefecture-level powerhouses were out of the game in the first round, and only one Qi An remained, but Qi An achieved gratifying results, and actually eliminated Mao Wuxi, the highest ranking of the Yiwu Branch, which not only surprised Fan Ming, but also made Hu Guangsheng blow his beard and stare at him, so depressed.

A few families are happy and a few are sad, but for the vast majority of the participants in the human level list, it is obviously a lot easier, because most of the powerhouses on the prefecture-level list appear in the first four groups, and among the fifteen powerhouses on the prefecture-level list, only Gong Qing from the Xiangfan Branch, Ouyang Ting from the Zhengwu Branch, and Wang Shanjun from the Fufeng Branch, and the remaining twelve people, including Li Changsheng of the heaven-level list, are all assigned to the first four groups. In other words, the afternoon game is basically a battle between human-level peak martial arts, as long as the luck is not too bad, if you happen to meet those three prefecture-level powerhouses, the chances of qualifying are not low.

In the afternoon, there will also be four groups of competitions, the first is Group E, and the first game, Bai Jianhong of the Backing Mountain Branch will face a human-level martial artist of the Zhengwu Branch.

Bai Jianhong is the only woman in the team of the backer branch, her complexion is very fair, and her weak appearance is a little pitiful, and she has attracted the attention of many people as soon as she appeared on the stage, her opponent is a burly strong man, and the contrast between the two is very obvious from the point of view of appearance.

Of course, in the world of martial artists, the foreign type does not represent strength, Bai Jianhong looks like a weak grass, but she can move her hands but is very wild and fierce, her weapon is actually a long-handled halberd, with a total length of one foot and three inches, and it is simply domineering when wielded, and the opponent has almost no power to fight back, and finally wins.

In the second game of Group E, Wang Shanjun of the Fufeng Branch played against a human-level martial artist of the Yiwu Branch, and Wang Shanjun naturally won.

The third game of Group E was a duel between human-level peak martial arts, from the Black Water Academy against the Xiangfan Branch, and the result was that the peak martial arts of the Xiangfan Branch were superior and won.

Next, it was the turn of the group, who knew that there was not a single master on the ground list in these three competitions, all of them were battles between human-level martial arts sects, and the winners were the Yiwu Branch, the Zhengwu Branch, and the Backing Mountain Branch.

Among them, it was Qiao Zheng who won the victory for the Backer Branch, known as the guy with the strongest defense in the human-level martial arts sect of the entire Backer Branch, and lived up to expectations, defeating the opponent with his best anti-defensive and counterattack play, and finally won the game.

However, Fan Ming and the others didn't have time to be happy for long, and in the first game of the Geng group, Chai Qiao was easily eliminated by Ouyang Ting from the Zhengwu Branch.

Chai Qiao is probably the oldest of the forty-eight contestants, although his strength is not bad, but he met Ouyang Ting. Ouyang Ting is much younger than Chai Qiao, but she is the strongest person in the first place in the prefecture-level list of the Zhengwu Branch, much more powerful than her brother Ouyang Shi.

In the second game of the Geng group, the Fufeng Branch played against the Yiwu Branch, and the two people on the court were both human-level peak martial arts, and the ending was that the Fufeng Branch won.

In the third game of the Geng group, the last strong person on the prefecture-level list appeared, she was Gong Qing, the strongest in the Xiangfan Branch, and her opponent was a human-level martial arts sect in the Black Water Academy, and she was also the last one in the ranking. There is no doubt that Gong Qing won with great ease and advanced to the next round.

At this point, all the powerhouses of the prefecture-level list have all appeared, and the remaining six people in the last group are all human-level peak martial arts, and the contestants of the Xin group who are about to play immediately feel that the pressure has been greatly reduced.

There are still three players from the branch who must be out, including Li Hualin of the Backer Branch, who was originally the weakest of the team participating in the Backing Mountain Branch, and it is reasonable that he will be eliminated. The winners were the Eupoo Branch, the Black Water Temple, and the Fufu Branch.

The first round of knockouts was over, and half of the contestants were out, including Yu Hu, Bu Feng, Wang Sheng, Mao Wuhui and other four prefecture-level powerhouses, two of whom were from the Backing Mountain Branch.

But judging from the situation of the qualifiers of each team, the worst is the Yiwu Branch, only Liu Cheng and two people-level peak martial arts sects are left, although there is only one Qi'an support scene left in the backer branch, but there are three people in the human-level peak martial arts sect, namely Qiao Zheng, Fan Teng, and Bai Jianhong, one more than the Yiwu branch.

Heishui, Xiangfan, and Fufeng didn't hurt their muscles and bones, and all the people who were eliminated were weaker human-level contestants, especially the Xiangfan Branch, four of the five people left behind were all strong in the prefecture-level list, except for being pressed by Li Changsheng of the Heishui Academy, it can almost be said to be the strongest team.

The second round of knockout matches will be held the next day, and there will be some changes to the matching rules, and people in the same group will not become opponents, and will be matched between groups.

After eating dinner, Qi An closed his door to meditate, first practiced for a while, and then began to reminisce about today's battle with Mao Wuxi, carefully thinking about the shortcomings in the backing boxing method, and soon it was late at night.

Qi An suddenly heard a slight sound outside the house, and when he looked up through the window, he happened to see a tall and thin figure climbing over the courtyard wall and disappearing into the night.

"It's Bu Feng......" Although the figure was very fast, so fast that only an afterimage was left, Qi An could still recognize him as Bu Feng, so he also got up and went out of the house, following the direction in which Bu Feng disappeared.

Outside the courtyard wall is a silent small bamboo forest, two tall and thin figures stand opposite each other, the atmosphere is a little weird, one of them is Bu Feng, and the other is Liu Cheng of the Yifeng Branch, that is, the zombie face who defeated Wang Sheng in front of the Fufeng County City Post House.

"What are you doing here?" Bu Feng asked with an unkind face staring at Liu Cheng.

"Get out of the way, Liu didn't come to you. Liu Cheng replied expressionlessly.

"Are you here to find me?" a voice sounded, and Qi An's figure also appeared in the bamboo forest.

"Yes, Liu wants to have a competition with you. Liu Cheng's gaze was a little eager, but the expression on his face was still indifferent.

"Do you want to avenge Mao Wuxi?" Qi An glanced at Liu Cheng lightly, probably guessing the other party's intention.

Liu Cheng replied indifferently: "Whatever you think, just ask if you dare to compare?"

Qi An nodded and said briskly: "Then let's have a game!"

Bu Feng glanced at the two of them separately, took a few steps back, and said to Qi An: "Be careful!"

Qi An showed him a smile: "Senior Brother Bu, please rest assured, Qi An has his own measure. ”

Just kidding, as a body refining cultivator, not to mention that Liu Cheng is only a peak martial sect, even if he breaks through to the Qi Condensation Realm on the spot, he may not be able to hurt Qi An, the only threat to Qi An at present may be Li Changsheng, and the others are not taken into Qi An's eyes at all, at most they are just stepping stones to hone their backing boxing skills.

Liu Cheng pinched his phalanges, and said to Qi An with an expressionless face: "Mao Wuyu cultivates the Wind Catching God Fist, and I practice the Giant Spirit Palm Technique, my strength is stronger than his, it depends on how many palms you can take." ”

After saying that, Liu Cheng stepped forward directly, raised his palm, and slapped his palm, and took Qi An's chest, and Qi An was not lazy, he tightened his abdomen and lifted his breath, and a fist burst out.

The fists and palms intersected, making a muffled sound, and the two of them each took three steps back, and they were evenly divided, and no one took advantage.

"How is that possible?" Liu Cheng looked at Qi An in disbelief, he almost used all his strength with that palm, even if it was replaced by Mao Wuxi, I am afraid that he would have to take two or three more steps back, and Qi An was actually equal to him, which was obviously a bit unexpected to him.
