Chapter 66: The group stage is coming
In the end, the top 100 places on the ladder are decided.
These 100 people have passed the assessment and are already disciples of the outer sect of Yunxi Sect.
Therefore, the top 100 disciples were all relieved, and the first step into the Yunxi Sect was finally passed.
As for the one hundred after that, they couldn't help but be a little depressed.
However, they still have one last chance, that is, the group stage, as long as they qualify for the group stage, they can still become the outer disciples of the Yunxi Sect and participate in the final selection competition.
And Duan Chen, there are more than 170 ladders.
After everyone withdrew, Duan Chen felt a lot of regret, because he felt that the little sword jade pendant was not yet 'saturated', and he still had no way to completely control the little sword jade pendant.
And Duan Chen's ranking made many people puzzled, and they didn't know what the hell he was doing.
"Duan Chen, what's the matter with you, why didn't you make it into the top 100?"
Gu Yu, Meng Bei and the others came over to ask, thinking that something was wrong with Duan Chen.
"Oh, it's okay, it's just an accident, isn't there another group stage, I'm definitely going to qualify. β
Duan Chen said a little carelessly, but his eyes were staring at the ladder that had just been put away in Ge Yuan's hand from time to time, and he was still wondering why the ladder had a kind of qi overflowing, and why the little sword jade pendant needed to absorb this qi.
When Gu Yu and the others heard this, they didn't have anything to say, after all, this was also someone else's business, even if Duan Chen really gave up this assessment, they could only be surprised and couldn't control him.
However, when Ji Sangui saw Duan Chen's ranking, he had a feeling of seeing through Duan Chen's background, and he was very happy, because he happened to enter the ninety-seventh place, and Duan Chen was more than one hundred and seventy, it was self-evident who was more powerful.
"Huh, do you remember this dust, didn't you just rely on your physical strength to hit a six-squared combat power in the combat power pillar a few days ago, I thought it was a fierce man, but it turned out to be just a stupid person who can only brute force?"
"It's really speechless, although more than 170 people are also very good, but it's basically no play. Seeing that he is very young, I guess there will be another chance. β
"The physical body is so strong, he is still so young, and his cultivation also has a fivefold body refinement, and he is only more than one hundred and seventy, so how bad should his martial arts true intent be? β
Duan Chen's performance in the battle power pillar had left a deep impression on many people before, but such a ladder ranking was obviously unsatisfactory.
can't help but make people think that he is a papier-mΓ’chΓ© tiger, but in fact, his strength is not good.
"The group stage roster has been distributed, and it is all allocated according to your ladder ranking, so it is basically fair. This is your last chance, and whether you have it or not in tomorrow's tryouts will depend on your respective strengths. β
"As for those who have already passed the assessment, they can choose to leave or watch the game. β
Ge Yuan explained, and then the ten dueling platforms in the square opened at the same time, and the ten deacons of innate cultivation appeared separately and stood on each execution platform as referees.
Of the ten groups, all but three had 21 people, and the remaining seven groups had 20 people.
In the group stage, everyone has to play a game against other group members, and the two people with the highest points can qualify.
Duan Chen is in the ninth group, and the interesting thing is that there is an acquaintance in this group, it is Huang Ningzi from the Yanjing Martial Academy, she is one hundred and seventeenth in the ladder, so she also has to play in the group stage.
It's just that Duan Chen had some not-so-good accidents with Huang Ningzi before, and Huang Ningzi still looks at him with disgust.
At the beginning of the group stage, Duan Chen won five consecutive victories in a blink of an eye.
It immediately became the favorite to qualify.
However, there are three others who have won five consecutive victories like him, namely Ding Rui, Lao Shitian and Huang Ningzi.
There is no doubt that now that five rounds have passed, there are only four of them who still have the chance to qualify.
Among them, Ding Rui and Huang Ningzi are the ones who think they have the greatest hope of qualifying.
"Next game, Duan Chen vs. Ding Rui!"
The deacon referee shouted, and all the group players were shocked, and finally there was a hot player to touch.
Not only did the players pay attention, but the surrounding audience also noticed that the ninth group finally had a pair of strong collisions, and they also began to pay attention.
"I can't understand Duan Chen's strength now, his first five victories were all crisp, but he didn't show any crushing strength. However, such a strength ladder ranking should not be only more than one hundred and seventy, I really don't understand. β
"Whatever, as long as he still wants to enter the Yunxi Sect, he must win this game, otherwise the subsequent showdown will be difficult. β
On the dueling platform, Ding Rui and Duan Chen stood separately, facing each other.
Ding Rui held a thin sword, the blade of which was narrow but very sharp, and belonged to the kind of blade commonly used by assassins.
"You're no match for me. Ding Rui's eyelids drooped slightly, and his expression was indifferent.
Duan Chen smiled indifferently and was noncommittal, "You'll know if you have beaten it." β
Ding Rui raised his thin sword, and the tip of the sword flashed a little cold, sharp and dazzling, making people shudder.
Then he said: "If you still want to qualify, I advise you to admit defeat, I will see blood when I draw my sword." If you are injured, you will be defeated by Huang Ningzi or Lao Shitian in the future. β
Duan Chen was speechless again, he was not a person who liked nonsense, he directly straddled his legs, his whole body exuded a sense of dryness, and the temperature of the surrounding air suddenly increased.
This is the prototype of the fire intent of the Xiaocheng realm.
Seeing this, Ding Rui knew that Duan Chen was going to fight, so he couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "If you want to fight, then defeat!"
As soon as the words fell, a hazy mist suddenly appeared around Ding Rui, and his figure disappeared with it.
Purine!
Suddenly, a sharp sword roar sounded, and a thin sword stabbed out from a mist and pointed straight at Duan Chen's back.
Duan Chen's ears listened to all directions, and he was not confused by Ding Rui's fog from beginning to end, and Ding Rui's every move was under his observation.
Such a sneak attack seems a bit ...... Amusing!
Duan Chen's indifferent face showed a trace of disdain, and he suddenly turned around and faced Ding Rui's figure, and then the fire intent of his whole body condensed, and he punched out!
Bite!
Powerful fists and sharp swords collided, making a sharp sound of iron and stone intersecting.
The violent power poured down with the blazing fire, Ding Rui was like a thunderbolt, the tiger's mouth cracked, and the whole person flew directly upside down, crashing into the light curtain of the dueling platform, causing ripples layer after layer.
Burst!
Falling to the ground, Ding Rui could no longer hold back a mouthful of blood and spit it out, his expression was extremely shocked.
The true intent of the mist that he was proud of, combined with his assassin's sword, was almost invincible, and Duan Chen could see through it effortlessly?
Before he could draw his sword, Duan Chen's fist had already been punched.
The scene just now was as if Ding Rui took the initiative to hit Duan Chen's fist.
"Duan Chensheng!"
The deacon referee said expressionlessly, such a duel seemed to him to be the same as a child's house, and it was not interesting.
"In the ninth group, Ding Rui lost as the first favorite?
"It is said that Duan Chen is a little incomprehensible, Ding Rui's mist true meaning is an extremely difficult kind of true meaning, but it seems to be useless to Duan Chen, and I don't know how he can see through this fog true meaning. β
Seeing such a result, the audience and the players were taken aback.
Lao Shitian of the ninth group originally looked down on Duan Chen, but now it seems that this section of dust still has no ability to be revealed, so it should not be taken lightly.
In the ninth group, only Huang Ningzi didn't think that Duan Chen would lose, because she was someone who had really seen Duan Chen's strength, and that strength was definitely at the level of a seeded player.
As for why she is now reduced to playing in the group stage, she is also puzzled.
