Autumn goes to spring, year after year, in such a monotonous and boring life, Qi An gradually forgets everything, except for cultivation or cultivation, his strength is rapidly and steadily improving, getting stronger and stronger.

It has been almost two years since Qi An entered the Qianqing Academy, and he can feel that he is getting closer and closer to cultivating an iron body, and he should be able to complete it within this month or two.

Vajra is not bad and is divided into four realms, which are the four Dharma bodies of gold, silver, copper and iron, even if they are refined into the lowest level of iron body, they also have the strength of ordinary early stage cultivators of the Qi Condensation Realm. It's just that because the cultivation speed of the body refining method is slow, it is much inferior to the Qi refining method, so most of the people in the world who cultivate the truth are in the same vein of qi refining.

However, the strange thing is that this situation is exactly the opposite for Qi An, when he cultivated Vajra is not bad, it was extremely smooth, and the efficiency far exceeded that described in the book, but because of the influence of the dark blue flame in the dantian, the qi refining entered the realm to stagnate.

According to the introduction of the preface to "King Kong is Not Bad", if a person who cultivates this skill is extremely talented, he can reach the realm of the iron body within five to ten years, but Qi An has only been cultivating for less than two years, and the iron body is almost completed, which makes him feel incredible.

Thinking that the cultivation of the iron body would be equivalent to the early stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, Qi An, who was excited in his heart, became more and more excited, so he was considering whether he needed to temporarily stop practicing his fists, feet and body techniques during the next period of time, and make every effort to cultivate King Kong not badly, and strive to break through as soon as possible.

Qi An didn't have the heart to eat breakfast, and was about to meditate and breathe, when a short and fat figure pushed open the door and rushed in like the wind, shouting at him excitedly: "Fourth, why are you still cultivating? Hurry up and follow me!"

Qi An heard the voice, he didn't need to look at it, and he knew that this person was Ji Zhengyue, but he was a little surprised why the other party would break in at this time, in his impression, it seemed that the day had not yet come to go to the three major training grounds!

Ji Zhengyue dragged him out and replied: "Are you dazed? Today is this year's ring finals, and the ten champions will fight in the Yanwutang! Didn't you mention last time that you wanted to watch the battle with us? Why did you forget?"

Qi An suddenly realized, it turned out to be this matter!

In order to encourage students to learn from each other and improve together, Qianqing University has a ring competition, which is held independently by each county branch, which is divided into ten monthly competitions for one season a year, and students who sign up to participate can challenge each other.

Each person has three chances to challenge every day, three chances to be challenged and three chances to refuse, the winner will earn three points, the loser will earn one point, and the one with the most points per month will be the champion of the month.

After ten monthly competitions, there will be ten champions, and the overall champion of the season will be produced among these ten people, and the final winner will become the overall champion and can receive a lot of rewards.

Originally, Qi An liked to watch the martial arts fight, but after entering the backer branch, he was obsessed with self-cultivation, and rarely stepped into the martial arts hall, and even missed last year's finals, so this year he specially informed Ji Zhengyue that he must come to call himself when he arrives at the finals, which is almost equivalent to the battle between the strongest ten people in the entire backer branch.

Ji Zhengyue called Xiang Fang and Qu Han again, and a group of four went to Yanwutang.

There are many people in the usual Yanwu Hall, but today it is even more crowded, nearly 200 students almost all came, plus a few teachers and twenty or thirty stewards, more than 200 people gathered together, and the people were full of voices.

Yanwutang is not a building, but a field, in the middle is a wide square stone platform, three feet high from the ground, the length and width are nine zhang, there are step-like viewing seats built around it, there is no decoration on and off the stage, it looks simple and rough.

The game officially started at Chenshi, presided over by the chief steward Fan Ming, who first gestured to the surroundings to keep quiet, and the crowd on the table suddenly became much smaller.

Fan Ming first explained the specific rules of the game, and then asked the ten champions to take the stage.

Ten men and women climbed the stone platform from all directions and lined up in the order of the standing positions given by Fan Ming. This order does not indicate the level of strength, but rather the order in which they have achieved the title of champion in the season, for example, the first place on the left of the first month, the second place on the left of the second month, and so on, the tenth month's champion is on the far right.

Starting from the left, Fan Ming gave a brief introduction to the name and age of each champion one by one, and did not reveal any unnecessary information.

The first one on the left is a young woman, very handsome, with a very calm temperament, her name is Li Hongluo, she is twenty-five years old, and her weapon is a double sword.

Qi An couldn't be more familiar with the name Li Hongluo, every time he went to the Alley of Life and Death, he would see this name appear on the list publicly, and it was also the second place in the prefecture-level list, but it was the first time he saw a real person.

The second on the left is a young man with messy hair on his chin and a knife at his waist. This person's facial features are actually quite handsome, but the whole person is unkempt and feels very sloppy. His name is Murong Qing, he is twenty-three years old, and he is also a ruthless person on the prefecture-level list, it is said that he has not been admitted to the hospital for a long time, but as soon as he came in, he broke through the prefecture-level life and death alley, shocking the entire backer branch, I am afraid that the background and origin are not simple.

The third place is a big fat man with a smile and a little rich, holding an iron abacus in his hand, looking like a market businessman, but in fact he is a very powerful peak martial artist, his name is Huang Jue, the third place on the current human level list, and his age is a little older, thirty-six years old.

The fourth person is named Qiao Zheng, the same age as Huang Jue, also thirty-six years old, a bald man with a wooden expression, carrying a square shield on his back, and no other weapons are seen. This person's name used to be on the human level, even before Huang Jue, but unfortunately he was squeezed down by the people behind him a few months ago.

The fifth Bu Feng, twenty-six years old, with an unknown weapon, is a young man who is as thin as a bamboo pole and only has skin and bones left, the top of the human ranks, and the results of the five breaths have always shocked Qi An and others, and no second person in the martial arts sect of the entire backer branch can do it, obviously a master with extreme speed in his body.

The sixth person is a middle-aged man, with a moderate figure, not fat or thin, ordinary facial features, his appearance is not good, and he has a public face that people forget when they see it, this person's name is Chai Qiao, forty-two years old, relatively old, even if he is an older student, but he is also the fourth place on the current human level list, and he can't even see what a weapon is.

The seventh is a short, square-faced man, with tangled arm muscles, thicker than his thighs, and looks a little top-heavy, a little funny, but those who know him know that this person is powerful, with a pair of three-hundred-pound sledgehammers in his hands, almost invincible bravery, and he is now the second place in the human level list Wang Sheng, who is thirty-one years old.

The eighth is even more bizarre than the previous one, just like an old farmer in the countryside, wearing a simple gray linen shirt, a pair of straw sandals on his feet, a hoe on his shoulder, and a tattered straw hat on his head. But the vast majority of people present today know him, after all, he is too famous, and he has also been on the list of people, he is Wu Laoshi, nicknamed "Old Farmer", with an old face full of wrinkles, in fact, his real age is less than forty years old, only thirty-nine.

The ninth is a thin man with a sallow yellow face and cold eyes, triangular eyes, a hooked nose, a little bald on the top of his head, and a little hunched back, which makes people feel very uncomfortable. This person's name is Wei Ying, thirty-five years old, is a very withdrawn personality, a very bad temper of the old student, it is said that he has been in the backing branch for a long time, for more than ten years, but he has been low-key and cultivated, rarely appearing in the ring.

The last one was a middle-aged woman, plump, middle-to-top, and there was always a smile on her face, which seemed to be very hospitable and warm. This person's name is Sun Sanniang, who happens to be thirty-three years old, and has just risen to the fifth place on the human level list not long ago, and his weapon is a meniscus knife that he is carrying upside down.

At this point, after all the ten champions were introduced, Qi An suddenly thought of a question, and hurriedly asked Ji Zhengyue: "What about Gongsun Riyue, why is there no Gongsun Riyue among the ten?"

Gongsun Riyue is the first person on the prefecture-level list, and it is said that he is currently the strongest person in the entire backing branch, and he has defeated the early stage monks of the Condensation Realm, and his strength is unfathomable, and it is impossible to even get the title of champion.

Ji Zhengyue quickly gave an answer: "It is said that Gongsun Riyue is a cultivator, he rarely shows up in front of people, and he doesn't care about anything other than cultivation, so he has never participated in the ring at all. ”

Qu Han also said: "If Gongsun Riyue also comes to the ring to join in the fun, then there is no need to compare, no one can beat him, just award the championship to him, save trouble!"

Qi An'an thought that too, for a perverted martial sect like Gongsun Riyue, who could cross a realm and defeat a cultivator in the early stage of the Condensation Realm, he did have the capital to be proud of, and he should disdain to participate in this kind of competition with a certain showmanship.

The next step is to start the official competition, according to the rules, first divided into five groups to fight the team, and the winner will advance to the next round.

The rules of pairing are 1st vs. 10th, 2nd vs. 9th, 3rd vs. 8th, 4th vs. 7th, 5th vs. 6th, and the same goes for the order of battle, with one group finishing and the next group continuing until the five winners are determined.
