。

Three circular rings are placed in the largest square of the school.

Today is the qualifier, and 200 of the more than 1,800 students will be selected to enter tomorrow's semi-finals.

The first round of the draw decides their respective opponents.

Students who have cultivated at the tenth level of Qi refining and above had a bye in the first round, and the number of students in this group was extremely limited, with only more than eighty people in total.

The rest of the students who won the first round will be drawn by lot, the winner will face off by lot, and the loser will draw lots against the loser.

Everything was arranged by the spirit brain, and the draw was done almost instantaneously.

Five wins will advance to the semifinals, and three consecutive losses or loss of combat will result in elimination.

In terms of duel rules, killers are not allowed, poison is not allowed, and others are unlimited, and exercises, magic weapons, spirit runes, supernatural powers, and even secret weapons can be used at will.

However, there is a time limit for the qualifier matchup, only three minutes, and after three minutes, there is no winner or loser, and it has been tied and counted as the loser for the draw.

Yuan Longji, as the principal of the host school of the first Rising Star Competition, naturally had to give a speech before the competition.

Then the Director of the Department of Education delivered a speech, wishing the first Rising Star Championship a smooth success.

Then it was the lottery session, and behind the podium was a huge spiritual screen with names scrolling endlessly.

In just a few seconds, the duels of all the participating students were arranged.

The qualifiers are not held in the ring, and each student only needs to enter the net through their watch.

Fight in the too illusory realm of the spirit net, which saves time, and everyone can also fight at the same time.

Among all the people Li Daochong knew, more than half were not eligible to participate in the competition, Liu Feng, Ouyang Qian, Li Qingyao, Zhao Peng, Qiao Xinuo, and so on did not have the eighth-level cultivation of qi refining.

Ye Feiyue, Lu Ming and Situ Lan are among the few students who can participate in the competition.

There are still ten minutes left for the start of the competition, and both the participating students and the spectators have entered the spirit net.

Spectators can choose to watch the contestants they follow.

However, the attention of the qualifiers is naturally not very high, and the real masters have byes in the first round, and only in the second round will they be placed in the winners' list for the draw.

After entering the spirit network, the participating students will be directly teleported to the duel platform for battle.

Nearly 900 battle platforms are all open to the public.

For a while, the realm of the Illusory Realm on the Spirit Net was extremely crowded, and the eyes of the entire Tian Yuan City were focused on the First Rising Star Tournament held this time.

Although the number of spectators was large, the flow of people was still dispersed after so many matches in the first round of the qualifiers.

The audience's eyes were mainly focused on a few up-and-comers with good talents, although their cultivation did not reach the tenth layer of qi refining, their strength was not weaker than the tenth layer of qi refining, and they were all exceeded.

Among them, the most concerned are Tian Jintian, the first person of the Tian family in Tianyuan City, Lin Yuhan and Lin Jiahao, the two Lin families of Wanhai City, as well as Lian Fugui of the Lian family, Wu Hai of the Wu family, and Qiu Yunfei of the Qiu family.

The strength of these people all has the strength to challenge the tenth-level cultivation of Qi refining students.

In addition, there are several sophomores who are also attracting attention, the most prominent of which are Chen Lin and Zhou Wenshan.

Both of them are ninth-level Qi cultivators, although their talents are not very high, but after all, they are sophomores, and they are much more experienced than freshmen in terms of both exercises and actual combat experience.

Lian Fugui is a little fat man, an eighth-layer cultivator of qi refining, a member of the Green Wolf Society, and Zhan Honglie dealt with Li Daochong on the Ghost Hunting Star together.

At this time, Lian Fugui stood on the battle platform with a wicked smile on his face, and all the other students on both sides on the battle platform were ready, only there was no one opposite him.

At first, Lian Fugui was a little blindsided, thinking that the opponent was a Ma Daha, and there were still five minutes before the start of the game before he entered the battle platform.

But when Lian Fugui saw the name of his opponent clearly, he suddenly smiled, and his opponent was actually Li Daochong.

How can a dead ghost appear, he can win without a fight, and even Fugui smiles.

Even Fugui himself is one of the stronger players, so the battle platform where he is located has invited a lot of spectators to watch the game, and there are thousands of people.

There were also some people who entered out of curiosity when they saw Li Daochong's name.

After the news of Li Daochong's death spread, it was not very convincing at first, but in the following days, no one saw Li Daochong again.

Gradually, people began to believe that Li Daochong was dead, otherwise how could there be no shadow for nearly three months.

Incidents of early deaths of cultivators occur frequently, and unless everyone can be effectively protected later, there is nothing strange about this kind of thing.

Ouyang Qian sat in the audience with a gloomy expression, even Li Qingyao didn't know where Li Daochong was, it seemed that most of the rumors were true, as the so-called no wind and no waves.

"Sister, why are you here" After Qiao Xinuo entered the audience, he saw Qiao Ximo sitting at the front, and immediately asked with a strange look on his face.

"Let's take a look." Qiao Ximo's beauty is a little haggard, the Qiao family has fallen into crisis again in the past few months, and her unruly old man has caused trouble again.

And Li Daochong's unexpected counterattack made Qiao Ximo's heart a little more complicated, she never thought that this stupid young master would become so powerful now.

After Qiao Xinuo came back from the ghost hunting star, he told Qiao Ximo everything that happened, thinking that his sister would be happy, but after listening to it indifferently, Qiao Ximo said, We are divorced.

Qiao Xinuo looked at her sister with a shocked face at the time, speechless, thinking back to her behavior of calling Li Daochong's brother-in-law all the time, it was stupid and ridiculous.

"Sister, Li Daochong won't appear, I asked his sister Li Qingyao, and he never sent back the news after he left home to travel." Qiao Xinuo said with a sigh.

"yes, I know." Qiao Ximo nodded slightly, a trace of sadness seemed to flash in her eyes, recalling Li Daochong's various behaviors in the past, she suddenly felt a little sorry for him.

"Hahaha, even that kid from Fugui actually drew lots to draw a dead ghost, good luck, I don't know who reported Li Daochong's name." There was laughter from the seat next to him.

"Shhh, be quiet, I heard that it was Qian Changhai, the vice president of Xiuzhen Academy, who signed up for Li Daochong, and he valued Li Daochong very much." Another spectator pointed to the back of a thin old man standing at the front.

Qian Changhai kept watching the time, there are still three minutes to start, and if the contestant does not show up at the start of the duel, he will be disqualified.

Regarding the news of Li Daochong's death, Qian Changhai did not believe it, he had already signed up for Li Daochong, but until now Li Daochong did not appear, and the old man's heart began to waver.

That kid couldn't have really had an accident
