The remaining eight people who did not appear on the stage, you look at me, I look at you, one by one silent.

This is also a challenge, even Jiang Zhong was knocked away with a punch, and when they go up, I'm afraid they will all be a punch.

No one wants to do the act of looking for death.

"No one dares to challenge it?"

Seeing that no one dared to step forward, Xiao Zhan snorted coldly, his face indifferent.

"You are all geniuses of my Great Zhou Dynasty, you should think more about how to survive in the next Five Kingdoms Competition and win a better ranking, instead of fighting among your own people. ”

"Lord Xiao Zhan, in this five-country competition, can there still be casualties?"

Someone couldn't help but say.

"What do you think? In the last Five Kingdoms Competition, a total of 116 young warriors from our Great Zhou Dynasty participated in the competition, and at the time of the first examination, 17 people died, and 39 people were seriously injured and disabled, and in the end, only 19 people entered the ring and had the qualifications to participate in the final competition. ”

Hearing Xiao Zhan's words, everyone present gasped.

They only know that the Great Competition of the Five Kingdoms is an opportunity, and the prizes are rich, as long as they get the ranking, once they return to the Great Zhou Dynasty, they will be called by His Majesty personally, and it will be no problem to add officials to the knighthood at that time.

But I never expected that the competition would be so cruel and the mortality rate would be so high.

Almost half of them were seriously injured, and one in 10 were killed in the course of the competition.

Xiao Zhan saw everyone's frightened looks, and said in a deep voice: "Although there is no large-scale war in the five northwestern countries today, in fact, there are constant conflicts between countries, and friction occurs one after another. ”

"Let's just say that our Great Zhou Dynasty and Qi Duan Kingdom, there are conflicts on the border every year, and there are thousands or tens of thousands of soldiers who die every year. ”

"And for a country, the number of geniuses is the greatest guarantee of a country's vitality, in order to weaken the strength of other countries, in fact, many geniuses in each country die at the hands of spies of other countries every year. ”

"In this case, the five-nation competition once every five years is a meat grinding ground for geniuses, and any country wants to try to kill the geniuses of other countries in this competition. ”

"And our Great Zhou Dynasty, among the five countries, although not weak, but not the top, and in addition to the five countries, there are also some other regional geniuses who will also join the big competition, such as some sects and sects in our northwest five countries. ”

This also makes the five-nation competition every five years very cruel. ”

The so-called Great Comparison of the Five Kingdoms, in fact, is not only the Five Kingdoms, but also some powerful sects and sects around it, as well as some small countries, will also join it, which is equivalent to a division of the northwest forces.

According to the results of the big ratio, there will be some changes in the previous interests of each country every year.

A young man gasped: "There are also some geniuses from the sect who will also participate in the big competition?"

"That's right. Xiao Zhan nodded.

The so-called five countries in the northwest are not only five countries in the entire northwest, but in fact, there are no less than dozens of large and small countries.

It's just that the five countries are the top five among them.

The rest of the countries, although weak, also want to cultivate geniuses in order to have more strong people in the future and successfully rise to become a strong country.

This reason is very simple, but some geniuses from the sect also came to participate, which made everyone puzzled.

"But what are they trying to do?"

Outside the territory of the Five Northwest Kingdoms, there are indeed many powerful sects, but what is the purpose of their participation in the Five Kingdoms Competition?

"Purpose?" Xiao Zhan sneered.

"The purpose is very simple, of course, it is for resources, for example, the quota of the Blood Spirit Pool this time, not all of us from the five countries in the northwest, Ling Tianzong, one of the major sects in the northwest, also has two quotas, and the same is true for the Ghost Immortal Sect, in addition, there are also some sects that also have quotas. ”

"They don't occupy many places, only one or two, but more of them, it's for the competition for resources. ”

Xiao Zhan's eyes flashed: "For example, more than a hundred years ago, the Great Liang Kingdom, one of the Five Kingdoms, discovered a medicine garden in a place north of the Demon Ancestor Mountain Range, but that area was only thousands of miles away from Ling Tianzong. When Ling Tianzong discovered the Medicine Garden in the Great Liang Kingdom, he also discovered it there. ”

"The Great Liang Kingdom directly sent tens of thousands of soldiers to guard this medicine garden, wanting to forcibly occupy the entire medicine garden, but Ling Tianzong naturally refused, so the two sides fought in this area. Although Ling Tianzong didn't have much manpower, he had a lot of masters, and they adopted a harassment policy, so that the Great Liang Kingdom could not defend the medicine garden with peace of mind. ”

"Even, Ling Tianzong's master also urged the demon beasts to slaughter the garrison of the soldiers of the Great Liang Kingdom. ”

"The final result of this battle is that the Great Liang Kingdom won a tragic victory, although it finally occupied the Medicine Garden, but in the same way, the Great Liang Kingdom also died tens of thousands of soldiers, and it was made to never be peaceful, and several famous generals were also beheaded by Ling Tianzong and died in the Demon Ancestor Mountain Range, which one is not the life of the real Spirit King Fourth Stage?!"

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, but they didn't expect that there would be such a grudge between the famous Ling Tianzong and the Great Liang Kingdom in the northwest.

"But Da Liang Guo has suffered such a big loss, don't you know to fight back?" someone couldn't help but ask.

The Great Liang State is also one of the five great powers in the northwest, how could it tolerate Ling Tianzong's provocation?

"The Great Liang Kingdom naturally had the same idea, and the monarch of the Great Liang Kingdom at that time was furious, and directly sent a large army to destroy Ling Tianzong. ”

"The number of troops assembled at that time was as high as hundreds of thousands, but Ling Tianzong was located in the Demon Ancestor Mountain Range, and it was difficult to march, Ling Tianzong, who got the news, sent a master, laid down a large array, and attracted demon beasts, and the two sides had a tragic confrontation in the Demon Ancestor Mountain Range. ”

"In that battle, the Great Liang Kingdom suffered heavy losses, hundreds of thousands of troops, nearly 100,000 died, and Ling Tianzong was also desperately killed by many masters, and in the end, if the battle continued, both sides would be greatly injured, so the war was stopped. ”

"Later, the Blood Spirit Pool and the medicine land near the Blood Spirit Pool were gradually discovered, and after the First War of the Five Kingdoms opened the Five Kingdoms Great Competition, several major sects around them also coveted the Blood Spirit Pool, so they joined the Five Kingdoms Great Competition. ”

"It is stipulated that the competition of the Five Kingdoms in each session is not only a competition of geniuses, the competition of the Blood Spirit Pool, but also the competition between the resources of the Five Kingdoms and the major sects in the northwest. ”

"Some conflicts between resources can be resolved by the Five Kingdoms, and the more geniuses one has in one force, the more initiative it will occupy. ”

When everyone heard Xiao Zhan's words, they were deeply silent.

They all thought that the so-called Great Competition of the Five Kingdoms was just a competition for the Blood Spirit Pool, and for these geniuses like them, it was also an opportunity to get ahead in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, there are so many hidden meanings.

For a while, everyone held their breath, and their hearts were heavy.

After this battle, the geniuses of the Great Zhou Dynasty present no longer had the slightest contempt for Ye Xing and the others, and Xiao Zhan's words also made their hearts heavy.

"A few of you, just stay here, three days later will be the day when the Blood Spirit Pool will open, you take care of yourself, and I will send someone to inform you when the time comes." ”

After bidding farewell to the ten people, accompanied by Xiao Zhan, Ye Xing and the others were taken to the location of the military camp inside.

These barracks are all small tents set up.

"Considering that you both have to cultivate, in order to let you not affect each other, I specially applied for a tent for two people for you, if you want to live with anyone, you can apply, otherwise, it will be arranged randomly. ”

The area of this valley is very tense, and there are too many forces stationed, so every place of force is very tense.

Like ordinary soldiers, there are ten people in a large tent, and the geniuses who come to experience the training are one of four, Ye Xing and them, two people and one, which is already considered a generous treatment.

Among them, the fourth prince must be alone.

As the fourth highness of the Great Zhou Dynasty, no matter how Xiao Zhan is, he will not let him live with other martial artists.

The rest ......

Lord Lingshan and Princess Zixun were arranged together.

Li Qingfeng and Zhang Yi shared a tent.

Ye Xing and Wang Qiming.

As for Qin Feng, he could only monopolize one tent in the end.

After arranging all this, Xiao Zhan and the others left immediately.

The rush for many days in a row made everyone quite tired.

"I'll rest for a while, and at night, I'll go out to practice and won't disturb you. ”

Living in the same room with Ye Xing, Wang Qiming didn't have any expression, and after saying a few words, he lay in the tent and slept in his clothes.

Even when he slept, he held the war knife, as if the knife was already a part of his body.

His whole person is like a vigilant cheetah, as long as there is any wind and grass, he can jump up in an instant and attack.

"What a knife idiot. ”

Ye Xing's eyes flashed.

Among so many geniuses, he has a good impression of Wang Qiming.

Being able to grow from a commoner to several geniuses of the Heavenly Star Academy in one fell swoop, this person's future achievements must be extraordinary.

And to be able to be under the powerful pressure of the Bloodclaw Green Eagle, it is really a great luck for civilians to be able to do it as immovable as a mountain.

Sitting cross-legged, Ye Xing began to run "Star Change".

These days on the Bloodclaw Green Eagle, Ye Xing has not wasted time and continues to cultivate.

At this time, the true qi in his body had reached the peak of the early stage of the spirit warrior, and he was only one step away from stepping into the middle stage of the spirit warrior.

If he wants, Ye Xing can break through his cultivation at any time.

But he didn't.

Instead, he ran the first two layers of "Star Change" over and over again, compressing the true qi in his body to the extreme, and constantly merging into the twelve meridians, filling his qi pool.

Reborn in a lifetime, what Ye Xing wanted was not just to become the Nine Heavens Martial Emperor, but to reach an unprecedented height.

At this time, Qin Feng's tent was in the middle of it.

"I didn't expect that there were so many troops stationed outside this blood spirit pool, it seemed that it would be a big trouble to kill Ye Xing. ”

Qin Feng's brows furrowed slightly.

He knew that the Blood Spirit Pool was located in the depths of the Demon Ancestor Mountain Range, and his original plan was to kill Ye Xing before entering the Blood Spirit Pool, and the person who did it did not know it.

Who knows, the place where they live is actually a military camp.

Here, there are soldiers walking around, and they are all two people in a dormitory, which also makes it difficult for him to kill Ye Xing.

But these are nothing, with their own strength, if you want to kill someone, it is not impossible.

But the most important thing is that in order to protect the safety of these geniuses, Xiao Zhan, the Lingwu King, lives nearby.

With the cultivation of the peak of the fourth-order Xuan level of the Spirit Martial King Xiao Zhan, no matter what he does, he is very likely to be discovered.

"It seems that if you want to kill that Ye Xing, you can only wait until later. ”

With a flash of his eyes, Qin Feng shook his head.

The top priority is to adjust the state, and after three days, use the power of the blood spirit pool to break through the third-order spirit king.

At that time, he will have nothing to worry about what he does.

"For this baptism of the Blood Spirit Pool, I have suppressed my cultivation for a long time, I hope this legendary Blood Spirit Pool will not let me down. ”

Exhaling a breath of turbidity, Qin Feng closed his eyes in this tent.

Night is coming soon.

When Ye Xing opened his eyes, there was silence all around, and Wang Qiming was no longer in the room.

After resting for half a day, Ye Xing was refreshed and in a good mood.

"Dine in the middle tent, you can come at any time. ”

Seeing Ye Xing walking out of the tent, a patrolling soldier reminded.

The genius here cultivates penance every day, day and night, so the meals in the barracks are served twenty-four hours a day.

Ye Xing nodded and strode forward.

In the dark night, a bright moon hung in the sky.

In the distance, the mountains are dangerous, the mountain shadows are heavy, and occasionally the roar of demon beasts can't help but come.

Suddenly, Ye Xing heard a whistling sound in the mountains and forests in the distance.

"Hey, someone is practicing knives, and the sound of this knife ......"

Ye Xing was stunned for a moment, and followed the sound to the mountain forest.

I saw that under the moonlight, a young man was dancing his sword, he stood like a javelin, the knife was held at his side, and he drew his knife again and again.

His moves are very simple, only drawing and retracting.

With each strike, the edge and the edge of the air emitted a sharp whine.

It was Wang Qiming.

Drawing and retracting the knife is very boring, and any person who only needs to practice a thousand times will not be able to bear it.

But this Wang Qiming, but his face is tenacious, he goes out again and again, without the slightest impatience, and every time he goes out, he condenses his spirit to the extreme.

"If you practice like this, even if you practice for another year, you may not be able to comprehend the sword intent. Ye Xing shook his head suddenly.

"Who?"

The boy woke up and turned his head sharply.

His eyes were like sharp blades, shooting out cold light, and with a flick of his body, he came to Ye Xing's front, and the terrifying knife momentum came out of his body, like a treasure knife out of the sheath, ready to be cut down at any time.

"Are you...... Ye Xing?"

Seeing that it was Ye Xing, Wang Qiming frowned, "What are you doing here?" Also, you also know knives?"

Wang Qiming knows very well that Ye Xing's strongest is his swordsmanship and boxing skills, does he also have a study of knives?

A martial artist can practice to the extreme in one direction, it is already enough, how can he have such terrifying attainments in other aspects?

"I know a little bit about it. ”

Ye Xing said lightly: "Your understanding of the sword intent now only appears on the surface, the move that defeated Zong Qiang before should be just the prototype of the sword intent, and it is still far from the real sword intent, if I guessed correctly, you should have been constantly capturing the prototype of the knife intent just now, trying to comprehend the knife intent from it, but unfortunately, if this continues, your understanding of the sword intent will go astray." ”

"Nonsense. ”

Wang Qiming's eyes were displeased.

He originally had a good impression of Ye Xing, but now when he heard Ye Xing's words, he was immediately dissatisfied.

He is a sword-wielder, does he know what a sword is?

It's ridiculous!
