Chapter 72: The end of the group stage
At the beginning of February, Fang Hao went to the Gathering Spirit Pavilion again and once again purchased tens of thousands of gold coins of medicinal materials.
After coming back, he said to Sun Ying: "This time the medicine will be used until we have played all the games, and we don't need to go out until the game is finished." β
Sun Ying asked, "Does this mean that you don't need to suppress your strength in the future?"
She still felt some regrets that Fang Hao chose to take the initiative to admit defeat to the opponent of the Acquired Sevenfold Realm in the group stage, because from the beginning when she knew that Fang Hao was a teenager, he was invincible and did not meet an opponent.
When she can obviously win over the other party, she takes the initiative to admit defeat, which makes her not very acceptable.
Although he knew that Fang Hao's worries were not unreasonable, he always felt that there was some pocket in his heart.
Although Fang Hao was only sixteen years old now, he was an old monster who had lived for 60,000 years in his previous life, and of course he would not have the spirit of a young man to fight and win.
Wen Yan smiled: "As long as you can win, it's fine, there's no need to be too high-profile." β
In the next games, he was still the same as before, and each game took a long time.
He didn't lose again, though.
In round after round of competition, more than two months slowly passed.
On this day, after Sun Ying took a bowl of carefully boiled decoction, on the way to dissolve the medicinal properties, she suddenly advanced to the Sevenfold Realm of the Day After Tomorrow.
In the previous few days, she had such a hunch that she was about to break through the realm.
When it came time to make a real breakthrough, I was very excited.
After the medicinal properties were dissolved, he bowed heavily to Fang Hao and said, "Brother Fang, your great kindness and great virtue, I will never forget it! Even if you can't repay it in this life, you must repay your great kindness in the next life!"
The Sixfold Realm of the Day After Tomorrow, although it can give her the possibility of entering the semi-finals, the chances of being selected by the five major sects are still very slim, and there is a high probability that after entering the semi-finals, she will be brushed down in one round.
However, if you enter the Sevenfold Realm of the Day After Tomorrow, the chances of holding on are much greater, and there is a high chance of entering the top fifty.
Because so far, the sum of the acquired sevenfold realm and above realms is less than forty, as long as the luck is not so bad, there is a good chance that they will survive the rematch and move towards the next round.
By this time, Fang Hao had paid her tens of thousands of gold coins for medicinal materials.
Tens of thousands of gold coins can cultivate a gifted martial artist from the acquired realm to the half-step innate level, but it will take at least twenty years.
And in two or three months, he could only raise a martial artist like Sun Ying, who studied hard and practiced hard, from the acquired fivefold realm to the acquired sevenfold realm - this had to be coupled with Fang Hao's careful guidance, teaching her the top-level luck method, and consuming so much demon beast meat.
Otherwise, it will only be able to improve one realm.
If it was ordinary time, Sun Ying was certainly reluctant to waste so many resources in order to improve one or two small realms.
Although she is the core child of the Sun family among the three major families in Jin Ge City, she is not qualified to enjoy such consumption.
Jinge City is only a small place after all, and she is not the only child of the Sun family.
But during this competition, as long as she can increase the chance of being selected by the five major sects, not to mention tens of thousands of gold coins, she is willing to bear even hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
The value of this opportunity is much more than hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
If you can enter the five major sects, even if you can only wander around the outer gate for the rest of your life, with such an identity, you can protect the Sun family for decades.
The disciples of the five major sects, even the Yi Dynasty did not dare to provoke.
It is precisely for this reason that she is so grateful to Fang Hao.
Fang Hao smiled: "Everyone is a person from the same place, and it is also natural to help each other, needless to say that it is so serious." β
As for him, Zhao Yu, and Qian Hao are also people from the same place, why they didn't help them, Sun Ying didn't ask this unhappy question, and he didn't explain it.
Zhao Yu has not participated in the game now, because he has lost too many games, and it is impossible to enter the rematch, so he simply gave up the game.
But he would visit every game and be on the field almost every day.
This is a rare opportunity to gain knowledge, and during the group stage, no outsiders can come to see the competition, and only those who are qualified will be able to visit other people's games.
After giving up his own game, he would go to other people's games almost every day, but he also learned a lot of experience.
It was also for this reason that he saw Fang Hao and Sun Ying advancing bravely in their respective group stages, and there was a great chance of entering the semifinals, which made him jealous.
ββThese two people, no matter which one of them is chosen by the five major sects, will affect the Zhao family to continue to dominate the family in Jinge City, which is not a good thing for the Zhao family.
Qian Hao continued to compete, and on days when there was no competition, he practiced martial arts hard in his room, and in the final stage of the group stage, he successfully entered the sixfold realm of the day after tomorrow.
It's just that his winning rate is not high, and although he is in the top ten in the group stage, there is still a big distance from the top two.
After he broke through to the Acquired Sixfold Realm, he wanted to show off his rapid progress during this period of time in front of Sun Ying, but when he found Sun Ying, he found that he had already reached the Acquired Sevenfold Realm, which made him very frustrated.
When he saw that Fang Hao was still in the Sixfold Realm of the Day After Tomorrow, he regained some confidence, and said to Fang Hao with mockery:
"Didn't you say that you were going to win the first place in this national rookie competition? Why are you inferior to Sun Ying now? Before you participated in the competition, you were already in the acquired sixfold realm, and Sun Ying was only the acquired fivefold realm. Now that Sun Ying is in the Acquired Sevenfold Realm, you are still in the Acquired Sixfold Realm, this is too embarrassing, right?"
Of course, Fang Hao wouldn't explain to him that he just wanted to keep a low profile, smiled, and didn't say anything.
Sun Ying was a little angry for Fang Hao, and said to Qian Hao: "Brother Fang is much more powerful than me, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." β
"What do I not understand?" Qian Hao said disapprerovingly, "I think this guy must have taken some amazing pill during the Jin Ge City Rookie Martial Arts Competition, which improved his strength and won the first place." Now that the potential has been exhausted, that's all there is to it. β
Sun Ying wanted to say something, but was stopped by Fang Hao.
"What you said makes a lot of sense," Fang Hao said to Qian Hao with a smile, "That's basically what the truth is. β
