Chapter 170: The Race Begins
After all, Li Tong's small body and monk strength really didn't seem to be a threat to most of the other participating disciples who were Huangwu Realm Nine Folds.
But I don't know why, obviously Li Tong didn't say anything, and the expression on his face looked very indifferent, but everyone just couldn't help but feel excited in their hearts, and they couldn't underestimate Li Tong.
This is a person who has passed the additional test of the Spirit Palace, how can he really be an ordinary sevenfold disciple of the Yellow Martial Realm?!
Li Tong listened to all these discussions word for word, his face was still unwavering, and with the team led by the participating disciples, he slowly walked to the head of the Spirit Palace, reported his nameplate and verified his identity, and was put in safely under the sudden realization of everyone's various "sure enough" expressions.
Walking into the training ground, Li Tong saw that many acquaintances had already arrived.
Among them are Li Xiuqi and Li Yan, as well as Li Limiao's foursome.
Li Li Miao also saw Li Tong at a glance.
Because she couldn't make a loud noise in the training ground, Li Limiao didn't say hello to Li Tong, but winked at Li Tong.
Li Tong smiled slightly and gave Li Li Miao a look.
There is a tacit feeling of understanding flowing between the two.
Li Limiao suddenly became extremely strict again, and stood straight under the trial platform, without seeing a trace of abnormality.
Li Tong smiled slightly, walked over, and stood at the end of the line.
Soon, all the participating disciples and the spectators entered the venue before the small competition officially began.
Like the Li family potential competition, this time in the small competition, almost all the Li family elders were present except for the accident of the expatriate. And Li Xinghua, the current head of the Li family, sits high in the position of the head of the family, but the position of the wife of the head of the family is empty.
This discovery surprised many of the Li family disciples present.
Almost all the disciples of the Li family knew that their head of the family, Xie Guling, although she looked graceful and noble on weekdays, seemed to be disdainful of them ordinary disciples. But every time there are some important occasions in the family, such as various meetings or competitions, as long as it is a major event that the wife of the family is qualified to participate in, Xie Guling will hardly miss it.
Especially something like a small competition, it is a major event among the four major families, and in every previous small competition, Xie Guling has never been absent!
Everyone had some doubts in their hearts, but Li Xinghua didn't seem to notice the slightest abnormality, and he didn't mean to explain anything to everyone, so everyone had to keep this question in their hearts, and only knocked a few glances at Li Ruoman who was sitting in the audience from time to time.
Li Ruoman was furious by the seemingly nonexistent gazes around her, but she couldn't attack, so she could only endure herself, and her resentful gaze had been following her since Li Tong entered the venue.
It's all her fault!
If it weren't for her, how could my mother have been grounded by my father?! Even something as big as a big competition is absent!
Sensing Li Ruoman's resentful eyes, Li Tong only felt inexplicable in his heart.
Except for the one time she met Li Ruoman at the gate of the Spirit Hall seven days ago, she hadn't seen Li Ruoman at all these days. In this way, Li Ruoman can still hate her, then she really can't help it.
Originally, Li Tong thought that after he stabbed Li Ruoman at the door of the Spirit Palace, the other party would probably run to sign up for this year's small competition on impulse. But in the end, Li Ruoman actually endured it, which made Li Tong feel a little sorry.
She had planned to teach Li Ruoman a good lesson in the ring.
In the elder seat, in addition to the few elders that everyone occasionally saw on weekdays, there were three elders that no one recognized.
These three people also looked like middle-aged people, sitting only below the head of the family and above all the other elders, but no one introduced their identities, so that the disciples of the Li family had a lot to say about the absence of the wife of the head of the family, and also talked a lot about the three elders who suddenly appeared.
At the same time, the other three major families also sent an elder to watch the battle, obviously planning to take a good look at the Li family's children's table this year.
Coincidentally, the three elders sent by the three major families this time were the three that Li Tong saw when he participated in the potential competition.
"Silence!"
Li Yangping came forward to preside over this year's small competition on behalf of the Spirit Temple. As soon as he spoke, the sound of discussion that was still faint in the venue suddenly dissipated without a trace, and the silence was so quiet that people didn't even dare to come out.
After Li Yangping's simple opening remarks, he directly announced that this year's small competition has officially begun!
There were two knockout rounds in the first round, and among the 152 Li family disciples who participated, only 38 Li family members could advance to the second round of the semi-finals.
In the knockout round, as long as you lose one game, you will be eliminated immediately, and there will be no second chance.
With a wave of his hand, a white cloth full of the list of participating disciples suddenly shook in front of everyone, so that everyone could see the names on the white cloth clearly.
Li Tong saw his name at a keen glance.
Her opponent in her first match was a ninefold disciple of the Huangwu Realm named Li Kaicheng!
This name is really unfamiliar to Li Tong.
Except for the names of the participating disciples and the realm of monks, there is no information about this battle list.
Li Tong also saw the battle table of Li Limiao's foursome, Li Danxia, Li Xiuqi, Li Yan and others.
And among them, Li Limiao, Li Danxia and Li Xiuqi are all just monks of the Huangwu Realm.
The battle list has been hanging in the air and has not been removed.
There was an old-looking Lingdian master who came out of the queue and began to name the people who fought on the trial platform.
There were only four trial platforms in total, but there were one hundred and fifty-two participating disciples, so naturally they could only come in groups one by one.
The participating disciples began to take the stage.
The fifth elder of the Xie family, Xie Hefeng, smiled and smiled at Ke Jingsha, the sixth elder of the Ke family beside him: "It seems that the disciples of the Li family have been cultivating very hard in recent years, and in this year's small competition, the number of applicants for the Li family has reached one hundred and fifty-two!" Our Xie family has only put together one hundred and six people this year. Compared with the Li family, our Xie family's disciples this year are really a little out of their hands! ”
Ke Jingsha sneered: "What's the use of having more people signing up? What the final result will be, it depends on whether these disciples have the strength or not! ”
Xie Hefeng smiled and didn't say anything more.
Several elders of the Li family sitting next to him were very dissatisfied with Ke Jingsha's attitude of looking down on the disciples of the Li family, but after all, Ke Jingsha did not name any disciple of the Li family, and it was an honest sentence, and there was no way to refute it.
If you want to slap Ke Jingsha's ugly face back, you have to look at the appearance of their family disciple in the end.
The elders of the Li family all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and looked at the participating disciples in the audience with burning eyes, hoping that they would not let themselves down.
Feeling the eyes that suddenly came down from the stage, many Li family disciples suddenly became nervous in their hearts.
Of course, there are also many disciples of the Li family who still look calm and unaffected.
Among the first batch of disciples to come to the stage, there was an acquaintance of Li Tong, which made Li Tong can't help but pay more attention to the trial platform where her acquaintance was......
It's Li Danxia.
Li Danxia's current monk realm is the eightfold Huangwu realm. When Li Tong first saw her three years ago, she was only the seventh level of the Huangwu Realm.
In Li Tong's original estimate, it was impossible for Li Danxia to raise her monk realm within three years.
The main reason is that Li Danxia's heart is not enough.
But she didn't expect that she hadn't seen her for three years, and Li Danxia's progress was so surprising to her.
I don't know what she's been through in the past three years.
Sure enough, in this unpredictable world of monks, it is really impossible to underestimate the potential of any person.
Li Danxia's opponent was a middle-aged monk of the Yellow Martial Realm Ninefold, who looked much older than Li Danxia. This middle-aged monk's name is Li Feng, and it can be seen that he has been able to cultivate to this point, mostly because of his own penance, and after years of cultivation and precipitation, he has achieved such an achievement today.
This kind of monk is the type of person in the monk world who is most easily and cannot be underestimated.
Because no one knows how solid their skills are, and they can't see how many hole cards the opponent has in their hands that have never been revealed.
"Senior Brother Feng, please!" Li Danxia said respectfully.
Compared with three years ago, at least in this etiquette, Li Danxia's progress is really not small.
Li Feng looks like an honest person, in the face of Li Danxia's gift, Li Feng turned out to be flustered, and waved his hand again and again: "Senior sister Danxia doesn't have to be so polite, it's better for senior sister to please go first." ”
The elders on the high platform all frowned as they looked at it.
The competition for the other three benches has officially begun.
Li Danxia didn't want to be the focus of attention in the eyes of so many people present, she nodded and said, "Since Senior Brother Feng said so, then I'm not welcome." ”
Before the words fell, Li Danxia had already turned over her hand and sent out a long sword high-level magic weapon on her back, and the sharp edge flashed in the sun, almost stinging people's eyes.
Seeing that Li Danxia took out the magic weapon, Li Feng's face also became stern.
He changed his previous honest appearance, and took out a long knife high-level magic weapon that was also on his back, and the tip of the knife was pointed straight on the training table, leaving a trace that no one could ignore.
This person's entire strength is by no means as harmless as he appears on the surface!
Li Danxia's face was solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother Feng, please take it!" ”
Before the words fell, Li Danxia had already jumped out, and the whole person was almost a bolt of lightning, and she slashed at Li Feng's neck with a swing of her sword!
All the ordinary disciples who saw this scene raised their hearts to their throats.
The strength of Li Danxia's sword seems to have surpassed the strength of an ordinary Yellow Martial Realm eightfold cultivator! R1152
