It is the so-called prophet of the plumbing duck in the spring river, but the creatures that live and swim on the surface of the water will never be able to appreciate the undercurrent that is quietly surging at the bottom of the riverbed, and once the energy accumulated by the undercurrent at the bottom of the river is released, these creatures can only go with the flow in this storm and flood, or fight for their own destiny.

The disciples of the Lingshan Sect were like this now, and even Kong Yunzhen and the heads of the Lingshan Sect had not yet noticed this gradually attacking dangerous aura, and their attention was still attracted by the current assessment and rating.

When the third round of the assessment battle officially began, all the rings in the martial arts arena of the Lingshan Sect asked Tianshan were all merged into one, and the ring expanded again, forming a huge and incomparably large ring, one hundred meters long, ninety meters wide, and about twenty centimeters high.

There is a white line around the ring around the bottom of the ring, which is to prevent the stone flat of the upper ring from being broken, and it is impossible to distinguish the boundary and therefore cannot determine whether it is out of bounds or not.

However, because the area of the ring was enlarged again, this made the space for the monks to move larger, and the difficulty of being knocked out of the ring increased exponentially.

If you want to win, there is only one way: defeat the opponent directly!

But in the same way, because of the expansion of the range, this makes the weaker side have more room to move, which is more conducive to their maneuvering with the strong, and the strong have to come up with a way to deal with the opponent's guerrilla maneuver tactics, otherwise they may fall into an embarrassing situation where they have an advantage but no victory.

The Lingshan Sect has held many years of assessment and rating, and each round is carefully formulated with rules, and the purpose and pertinence are very obvious: the first round is to select outstanding disciples from the crowd as soon as possible, and at the same time, in order to protect some disciples with outstanding talents or disciples with excellent combat talents, so the ring at this time is smaller, which is not only conducive to the forced combat of the strong, but also ensures that the stronger disciples can break through, and at the same time, because the competition area is clear, the opponent is chaotic and unknown, this is to give those weaker but talented disciples a breakthrough to break through, so that they can take advantage of it。

In the second round, the ring will be expanded, the competition area is clear but the opponent is equally clear, at this time, the fight is often their own heritage and strength, and the tendency of the competition system is becoming more and more obvious: to ensure that the seeded players can break through smoothly, and at the same time, the expanded range of the ring gives some powerful but weak disciples a better space to play, so that they have a certain chance to break through.

Zhao Xiaobao is an obvious vested interest, and his fighting style is obviously that the larger the space, the greater his range of activities, the more unpredictable his actions will be, and the more difficult his attacks will be.

In the third round, the ring expands again, giving weaker opponents more range of movement and evasion, but again, due to the expansion of the range, stronger players can use spells with a larger range and more lethality, and both sides are also buffed, which indicates that the purpose of the assessment is starting to lean towards two words: fairness.

It not only gives the weak room to play, but also gives the strong a stage to show, this comes and goes, both sides are satisfied, and the rest is to fight wits and courage.

On the first day of the third round, the top 16 battled, and the first game was highly anticipated, it was Zhao Xiaobao against Ouyang Xiu of Zangxiu Pavilion!

One is a veteran seed player, since he entered the cabinet, he has never been absent from the third round of the assessment war, especially after the second assessment war, Ouyang Xiu reached the top eight in one fell swoop, and officially became a young disciple of the Lingshan faction with unlimited prospects.

The other is one of the three dark horses in this assessment and rating, Zhao Xiaobao of the Hidden Sword Pavilion!

The lightning sword in his hand perfectly matched Zhao Xiaobao's characteristics, making him fierce in melee combat, and his long-range attack was erratic, and the monks who had encountered Zhao Xiaobao before were extremely big and very painful.

Fight with Zhao Xiaobao in close combat, his figure is erratic, looking ahead, behind him, before the blink of an eye, he is holding a sword in front of him and attacking, but after the blink of an eye, he is dozens of meters away, no matter how fierce your moves and attacks are all in vain.

Fight with Zhao Xiaobao from afar, his two lightning swords are not vegetarian, Zhao Xiaobao can stand in the distance, control the two lightning swords to launch a tidal attack, the onslaught of the two long swords can be fought from beginning to end without stopping!

But if you go after Zhao Xiaobao, it will immediately repeat the embarrassing situation when you fought with Zhao Xiaobao in close quarters.

A good top-level magic weapon can bring earth-shaking changes to the user, and some magic weapons with extremely prominent functions will even make the user become a "slave" of the magic weapon, and they will make their whole person's practice direction develop in the direction of matching the magic weapon in order to maximize the power of the magic weapon.

Although there are huge drawbacks to doing this, if the power of a magic weapon is fully exerted, its combat effectiveness is very amazing, and Han Tianxing and Zhao Xiaobao are among the many cases.

Therefore, although the strength of this battle is obvious, but it is also full of suspense, Zhang Jinbao opened a handicap for this big battle, Ouyang Xiu is one to two, proving that everyone is still optimistic that Ouyang Xiu can win, and Zhao Xiaobao opened a odds of one to five.

Due to the high odds and Zhao Xiaobao fought all the way, although the battle was thrilling and lost, but when he became familiar with the lightning sword, Zhao Xiaobao entered the second round in a thrilling way, but then he won every battle, and every game made the opponent miserable, and he couldn't see the possibility of winning at all.

This also makes many gamblers willing to gamble and bet on Zhao Xiaobao, so that his odds have fallen from one to five all the way to one to three, and Ouyang Xiu's odds have risen all the way from one to one to one to seven.

Such a change in odds can be seen from the side that Zhao Xiaobao is a symbol of strength in the eyes of everyone after his sudden rise.

But Zhao Xiaobao was very bottomless in his heart, because Ouyang Xiu was the first strong man in the real sense he met.

Although Ouyang Xiu almost lost the battle against Huang Nishang, everyone knew that this was not a crime of war, because Shuangyue, the magic weapon of the demon clan, was too domineering, and Huang Nishang's identity was suspicious!

In addition, Ouyang Xiu's combat effectiveness in all the battles can only be described in one word: dominance!

This kind of dominance is even stronger than Huangfu Song!

Because Ouyang Xiu's fighting method not only relies on her own magic weapon, her strength also comes from her strategy and wisdom!

When encountering an opponent with comparable strength, she will patiently deal with the opponent and accurately predict the opponent's next move, and strike precisely at the opponent's moves: when encountering an opponent who is obviously stronger than her...... Among the younger generation of disciples of the Lingshan Sect, there was no opponent who was significantly stronger than her. Only Qianshan Xue and Senior Sister are obviously above her in strength, and the strength of the other Huangfu Song and Li Xuanming is not comparable to her, and the victory or defeat is only half open.

Therefore, in the war zone below the golden body, Ouyang Xiu has no natural enemies, her strength does not come from her absolute strength, nor from her ferocious combat style, but from her versatile combat style of bending and stretching, advancing and retreating, fast and slow, hard and soft, she has never had a fixed combat routine, and her fighting methods have always changed according to the characteristics of the other party.

Someone gave Ouyang Xiu a nickname, called: Golden Bell Jar.

It means that once she decides to cover herself, the opponent will not be able to attack, and once she decides to cover the opponent, the opponent will not be able to escape!

During the two days of rest, the more Li Chengfeng studied Ouyang Xiu's information, the more he felt that this opponent was very terrifying, and the reason why he wanted to study her in depth was because once Zhao Xiaobao and Ouyang Xiu were defeated, and he won and entered the next round, the opponent Li Chengfeng had to face was none other than Ouyang Xiu!

Among the three major obstacles at the moment, Huangfu Song's Heavenly Fire Holy Sword has a huge hidden danger, Li Chengfeng knows that he has a way to win; Li Xuanming has suffered a lot of consumption in the battle with Han Tianxing, if he wins the next battle, the consumption will be even greater, in such a consumption, he cannot go to the end, so there is no need to worry.

The real opponent is this Ouyang Xiu, who is unscathed, has not been consumed in any way, and may also hide his hole cards!

"Young Master......"

Before entering the ring, Zhao Xiaobao looked at Li Chengfeng worriedly, lowered his voice and said, "Can I win?"

Li Chengfeng pressed his hands on Zhao Xiaobao's shoulders, looked at him seriously, and said: "Xiaobao, you have fought all the way, is it just to lose and come to this point? You have to believe in yourself, even if everyone is not optimistic about you, I will support you! Look at ......?"

As he spoke, he shook the gambling slip in his hand and said, "I have already bet all my net worth on you, you know my vision, I won't look away!"

Zhao Xiaobao's heart was warm and moved: "Young master, I will definitely win!!"

Li Chengfeng patted Zhao Xiaobao's shoulder heavily, and watched him walk into the ring, but Su Yuehan next to him rolled his eyes and whispered: "How can there be such a shameless person as you?"

Li Chengfeng also rolled his eyes: "I'm not wrong, I bet all my net worth on Zhao Xiaobao, just bet on him to lose......"

Su Yuehan looked at Zhao Xiaobao sympathetically: "If Xiaobao knows that you bet on him to lose, I don't know how sad it is." ”

Li Chengfeng sneered and said, "How come? If he wins, I'm happy for him, and if he loses, he's happy for me, it's the best of both worlds!"

Su Yuehan: "......"
