Chapter 516: Rival in Love
Mobile reading
The five elders sat in the center of the stands, and the middle-aged people who followed behind the elders were the referees of this selection competition.
One of the referees stepped forward and raised his hand to silence the students around the ring.
Seeing everyone's eyes projected towards him, the referee was indifferent.
He cleared his throat and raised his voice: "The annual Inner Courtyard Student Selection Contest has officially begun. This year's rule is that the thirty inner courtyard students selected by the Elders' House take turns to defend the ring, and the outer courtyard students who win three rings in a row will officially become inner courtyard students. β
After talking about the most important rules of the game, the referee babbled on and on many precautions for the game, and half an hour later, the drums on the edge of the ring sounded, and the three inner courtyard students calmly walked into the three rings.
As soon as the three of them gained a firm foothold, three students from the outer courtyard jumped into the ring, and after each of them said hello, they heard the referee say "start", and six people in the three rings acted at the same time.
Almost all the students from the outer courtyard gathered here, but there was no noise on the training ground, and everyone's attention was on the ring.
Most of them looked nervous, and some occasionally whispered a few words.
The first game ended one after another, and only one student from the outer courtyard won the game, but that didn't mean that he had already won the place for the student from the inner house.
According to the rules of the competition, this student must win the other two rings.
After a match, the three rings change their defenders.
Xuan Liyue found through observation that the strength of those students who were selected to defend the battle was all in the middle level of the green section. But by watching the game, it is not difficult to find that these people are very capable of fighting.
This is the reason why students in the outer courtyard yearn for the inner courtyard.
With the same level of strength, the combat effectiveness is very different.
The college should not want to set the threshold too high to avoid the embarrassment of no one being admitted to the inner courtyard.
Thirty or forty people are guaranteed to enter the inner courtyard every year.
As for changing the defenders in every game, it is to avoid the fatigue of the defenders and give the challenging students a chance.
There is also a strict part of the rules of the game, that is, the foreign students who win one ring match must strike while the iron is hot and win the other two games in a row.
It can be seen from the rules of the competition that Imperial College attaches great importance to the students of the inner court.
The game was in full swing, and the student who won the first game narrowly won the second game.
It can be seen that the first one to rush into the ring is still very confident in himself.
It's a pity that in the third game, because of a slightly impatient mood, he was accidentally knocked out of the ring by his opponent.
Students who lose the ring cannot re-challenge, otherwise the selection competition will not be over in one day.
As for the rules announced on the same day, it was to prevent people from deliberately releasing water through favor trading in private.
Two hours have passed, and from the beginning of the competition to the present, only eleven people have successfully won the place to enter the inner courtyard.
Of course, such a small number of students is also related to the fact that many powerful students are patient to postpone their appearances.
Gu Xinning watched the game for a long time, and his hands were already itchy.
Last night, she was promoted to two levels in a row, and her heart was eager to try.
After hesitating for a moment, she looked at Xuan Liyue.
Xuan Liyue looked at Gu Xinning's bright gaze, hooked her lips and smiled, and said, "If you want to go, you can go." β
Gu Xinning nodded again and again, looked at the others again, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Partners, I'm going!" β
"Come on!" Everyone said in unison.
The sound here was not small, and it immediately attracted some onlookers from the students next to him.
Because of the previous incident, Xuan Liyue is also a little famous, whether it is a good reputation or a bad reputation, at this moment, many people do know her and recognize her.
These people looked at Xuan Liyue with different eyes, some were jealous, some were happy, and some were faintly expectant.
Xuan Liyue ignored everyone's gaze, and her eyes kept falling on Gu Xinning, who was slowly walking to the ring.
Three games in a row, such game rules do not have any advantage for Gu Xinning.
But Gu Xinning, this little guy, has a tenacity that impresses her.
What she was most worried about was Gu Xinning's stubbornness to give up everything and win the quota.
Gu Xinning went to the ring, and the few people around Xuan Liyue were not very relieved, so no one went to the competition again, and they all stared at the ring where Gu Xinning was located.
In the first game, I have to say that Gu Xinning's luck was really good.
Those students in the inner courtyard who were guarding took turns on stage, and as time went by, it was not the first time that everyone had taken the stage.
Although most of the students in the outer courtyard signed up with a fluke mentality, in fact, they couldn't make a few moves in their hands, but the defender that Gu Xinning encountered, he lost to a strong outer courtyard student in his last game.
Not only that, but the man also had a few minor injuries on his body.
Although Gu Xinning is usually very arrogant, once he fights, he seems to have changed as a person, he is quick and accurate, and he specifically greets the wounds of the guards.
Xuan Liyue looked at Gu Xinning's moves, with a look of appreciation in her eyes.
This Gu Xinning has a jumpy personality, but he must be serious in his usual training, and he has suffered a lot.
After seventy or eighty moves, Gu Xinning gradually gained the upper hand.
In the one hundred and thirty-second move, the defender was knocked out of the ring, and Gu Xinning won the first game.
Xuan Liyue and the others had gradually moved to the edge of the ring, and after Gu Xinning thanked the referee, he jumped down from the ring and landed directly in front of Xuan Liyue and the others.
Without waiting for Xuan Liyue and the others to open their mouths to congratulate, they directly gave Xuan Liyue a big hug.
"Liyue, thank you!" There was a rare choked sobs in her voice.
Xuan Liyue patted her on the back and said in her ear: "There are still two games, come on!" β
Gu Xinning let go of Xuan Liyue, looked at the other people, and said, "Wait for my good news!" β
"Come on!"
Speaking skills, there was already another ring vacant, because Gu Xinning won a game, and the vacant ring was naturally reserved for Gu Xinning.
Gu Xinning stood in the ring, and when he saw the inner courtyard students who were slowly walking into the ring, his face changed suddenly.
Under the ring, Su Yun saw the person in the ring, and his face was also bad.
"It's her!"
Su Yun's voice was not loud, but there was a heaviness in her voice.
Xuan Liyue looked at Su Yun and asked, "What's the matter?" β
"That senior sister likes Xin Ning's fiancΓ©." Su Yundao, with a rare trace of worry in his eyes.
"How's that guy's strength?" Feng Lian asked eagerly.
Su Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "Half a year ago, it was slightly better than Xin Ning, and now, I can't say it." β
