Chapter Seventy-One: The Contest Begins
"This so-called reward is actually not very tempting for the disciples of these forces, but the title of the first place in the conference is what they are fighting for!" the man replied.
Seeing Kong Qing's silence, the man continued, "But you don't have to worry, those slightly larger forces will not participate in this kind of martial arts competition, after all, it is useless, and those who sneak in are just some small sects that are not famous."
"So that's the case" Kong Qing nodded gratefully, and just as he was about to leave, the man continued.
"In contrast, most of the martial artists who have won the first place every time are some of them who have no sect and no faction"
"How do you say that?" Kong Qing hurriedly asked.
"You don't know this, the big forces don't bother to participate, and the small forces don't have much strength to participate, so every time they compete in the martial arts conference, they will kill some dark horses," the man laughed.
Kong Qing pursed his lips, and then hugged the man with his fist, "Thank you seniors for informing me."
Seeing Kong Qing leave, the man scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, "Didn't you say that I am not a senior?"
As soon as Kong Qing returned to Yuan Yuanxiang's side, he saw a middle-aged martial artist on a chair in the far side of the square stand up, carrying Yuan Li and shouting, "It's an honor for me to preside over the martial arts competition in Baiyun City this time."
Hearing the words of the warrior of the City Lord's Mansion, the crowd gradually stopped talking.
After a pause, the City Lord's Mansion martial artist glanced around before continuing, "The young martial artists who want to participate in this martial arts competition can come over, and I don't have to repeat the rules."
After finishing speaking, the warrior slowly turned around and nodded to the strong man on the chair on the left.
The strong man was also from the City Lord's Mansion, and after responding, he stood up, walked slowly to the center of the square, and shouted, "The young warrior who wants to sign up come here!"
In order to meet the participation standards, in addition to being under the age of twenty, another condition is to reach at least the fifth stage of Lianyuan!
Hearing the strong man's shout, the figures of young warriors walked out of the surrounding crowd.
Seeing this, Kong Qing hurriedly shouted to Yuan Yuanxiang, "Senior sister!"
"I'm not going, you can go!" Yuan Yuanxiang replied with a smile.
Kong Qing was stunned, Yuan Yuanxiang was a martial artist in the Human Source Realm, if he participated, the first place in the conference would definitely be Yuan Yuanxiang, and he couldn't help but wonder, "Why, it's better for senior sister to go up."
Yuan Yuanxiang shook her head, "I can't go up!"
Seeing Yuan Yuanxiang's serious appearance, Kong Qing suddenly thought of something, so he nodded to Yuan Yuanxiang, "Okay, I'll go up first!"
"Go ahead, be careful," Yuan Yuanxiang smiled lightly.
After nodding, Kong Qing walked through the crowd towards the strong man.
Yuan Yuanxiang's strength, not to mention Baiyun City, even if it is the entire Xingyang County, I am afraid that there is no hand, once Yuan Yuanxiang goes out, it is certain that she will get the solid grass, but it will also expose Yuan Yuanxiang, once Yuan Yuanxiang attracts the attention of the City Lord's Mansion, it will only be more troublesome.
"There were seventeen people this time"
The strong man counted before nodding lightly.
The strong man was among the more than a dozen martial artists of the same age where Kong Qing was, his eyes froze, his hands quickly sealed, and his mouth murmured.
I saw the strong man stretch out his arm, put his palm upright, and a circular light mark appeared in everyone's eyes.
"Hit me with the best of your might!" said the strong man in a low voice.
After a dozen young martial artists hesitated, one of them took a few steps forward, and in the eyes of everyone, the source power quickly moved.
He immediately raised his arm and slammed his fist into the light seal.
Bang!
"Lian Yuan Fifth Stage, you can!" the strong man nodded.
With the beginning, the remaining warriors also showed their strength one after another.
Except for a few who did not pass, everyone else also passed the test of strong men.
"Bang!"
Another loud bang rang out, and after the sound, the young warrior returned to his place.
Feeling the power of this martial artist, the strong man slowly raised his head and looked solemnly at the young martial artist who had returned to his original place.
"Lian Yuan Qiduan! What a good seedling!" the strong man praised in his heart.
"Lian Yuan Qiduan, who is that kid?"
"I don't know, it's not a force disciple anyway!"
"It seems that this tournament has a wonderful time"
Kong Qing also tilted his head and looked at the martial artist who was only three people away from him, "If nothing else, the strongest opponent should be him."
The martial artist who was being watched by the audience was unusually calm at the moment, as if it was expected to cause such a shock.
Feeling the strong man's gaze, Kong Qingcai retracted his head and walked towards the strong man.
Now it's not in the Old Source District, and even if many of the supervisors in the Old Source District have cultivated the source power, their true strength is not very strong.
After all, those ordinary regulatory realms were all piled up with source stones, and many of them had been cultivating for more than ten years, and they hadn't even had a fight.
That kind of martial artist is like a bubble, in addition to shocking ordinary people, any martial artist of the same realm in the outside world can easily deal with it.
And the martial artists in the outside world are different, basically they don't use source stones to cultivate, even if they want to use foreign objects to cultivate, they will choose some elixirs with little side effects on the body, and more often absorb the source power of heaven and earth by themselves.
Although it is a little slower, it is the safest way to cultivate.
Kong Qing walked in front of the strong man, and after nodding slightly, he quickly raised his arm, and then the source power quickly spread into his fist.
"Bang!"
A heavy punch hit the strong man's light seal.
"Lian Yuan Sixth Stage!" The strong man nodded, and he didn't care much about Kong Qing's super results, after all, the results of the sixth stage could only be regarded as a medium level among everyone.
When Kong Qing finished testing, the last young martial artist walked up slowly.
"Is it him?" Kong Qing's eyes froze, and he grabbed the room with the white-robed warrior in the inn.
"I didn't expect him to come too"
Yuan Yuanxiang stood in the crowd and muttered.
Seeing this seemingly very ordinary white-robed martial artist, everyone didn't pay much attention to it, including the strong man, at first glance, it seemed that he was at most a relatively wealthy kind of son.
I saw the white robe warrior slowly raise his head, look at the light mark in front of him, raise his arm and shake his five fingers in the air, and then burst out with a punch.
Bang!
"Huh?"
The strong man was surprised, only to see a faint fist mark appear on the light seal, but it quickly dissipated.
"Shhh
The two City Lord's Mansion martial artists on the chairs in the distance suddenly sat up straight, and after the two looked at each other, they muttered in a low voice, "Eight Rank!"
"Eight Sections!" the strong man was stunned, even among the three major forces, such achievements belong to the middle and upper levels.
"Could it be the people of that force?" the strong man's eyes sank.
"Did you hear that, the City Lord's Mansion said that the kid actually reached the eighth rank!"
"I heard, it's been a long time since the young martial artist of the eighth rank appeared, and this time I can actually see one."
"I'm afraid that the seventh-dan kid just now has an opponent"
"What is an opponent, it's not a level at all?"
"I actually reached the eighth stage!" Kong Qing's heart sank, but he didn't have the slightest timidity, and even a little happy in his heart, this kind of realm was higher than Kong Qing's opponent, and Kong Qing's battle spirit in his heart was also even hotter!
Listening to the whispers of the crowd around him, the strong man looked at the white robe warrior heavily, and then said slowly, "There are a total of seventeen people, which means that one of you will have a bye and directly advance to the second duel."
Just as the strong man was speaking, a "source scholar" from the City Lord's Mansion walked up with a wooden box.
(Yuanshi: A warrior who cultivates by the source stone, like a soldier, a bronze helmet and armor)
Seeing Genshi come up, more than a dozen young warriors walked up to Genshi in turn, reached out and took out a paper ball in the wooden box.
Kong Qing also took out a paper ball according to the rules of the conference, and after opening it, a big "six" character was written on it.
Seeing that he was the sixth, Kong Qing couldn't help but think in his heart, "I didn't expect this kind of martial arts competition, and the one who chose the way to appear was actually to draw lots......"
However, this method is also very fair, and the City Lord's Mansion will not deliberately engage in some insider information, and this kind of monthly martial arts tournament does not need to engage in any insider information.
Seeing that everyone had opened the paper ball, the strong man took a few steps back and shouted loudly, "It's still the same, I won't repeat the rules much, and the martial artist who has drawn the number one can start!"
As soon as the strong man's voice fell, the two warriors slowly walked up, and the remaining warriors who had not drawn the number one took a few steps back and looked at the warriors who had already walked up.
"Let's get started!" the strong man nodded and said softly.
After the two warriors reported their names, they directly began to use their source power and rushed towards each other.
After a few rounds, a weaker warrior finally retreated.
