Chapter 222: Preliminaries: Battle for Resources
After taking his seat, Chu Jingtian asked directly: "How much do you know about the preliminaries?"
Mo Zikun shook his head directly, after all, he was just a non-sect martial artist, and his channels for understanding information were extremely limited.
Ye Leng nodded and said, "I know some." ”
"Regarding the news of this preliminaries, the shrine has been very tightly blocked, but there are still some versions circulating. However, one of the most reliable versions is that this preliminaries are a battle for resources. ”
"The battle for resources" Chu Jingtian looked at Ye Leng with some doubts.
"Hmm. Ye Leng nodded and said, "Eliminate rumors, we people will be taken to a place, where we will grab resources, and finally rank according to the total value of resources in each person's hands." ”
"It's a novel and simple approach. Chu Jingtian said.
Compared to some round-based competitions that rely on fighting to advance, he really thinks this way is much better.
"The way of the competition is very simple, but for the participants, it is not simple, and it is even more dangerous than the ordinary way of competition. Ye Leng said.
"That's just as well. Chu Jingtian nodded with feeling.
In the general way of competition, as long as you have enough strength, you can get a good ranking.
But this way is different, everyone grabs resources in one place, how to grab this resource, how to grab it, how to grab the most resources, and keep the resources after grabbing it, please, thank you
These are not only things that can be done with strength, but also require the resourcefulness of a warrior.
It can be said that the champion selected in the general way is only a powerful martial artist, and the one selected in this way is the one who can really survive in a dangerous environment.
"What will happen to the top 100 who don't need to participate in the preliminaries?" Chu Jingtian asked again.
"I should go to that place with other people, but I don't think I need to be in the rankings. Ye Leng said.
And after Mo Zikun heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but show a helpless look.
His strength was already at the bottom of the Tianjiao list, this time Chu Jingtian and Ye Leng did not participate in the ranking, he became alone, and he was destined to be eliminated in this preliminaries.
Seeing Mo Zikun's cousin, Chu Jingtian smiled and said: "Don't be discouraged first, let's see the situation tomorrow, if we can help you, we will naturally help, if you can't help, you can only rely on yourself, but the most important thing is to save your life." ”
"I know, if it doesn't work, I'll give up. Mo Zikun said. In fact, he knows very well that with his strength, he can come to this point, which is already a great luck, so his mentality is very good.
"It's good that you know. So now, let's all go rest and get ready for tomorrow's game. Chu Jingtian said, stood up and walked upstairs.
He has a hunch that this preliminaries will not be so simple, and it is even likely that it will be a fierce battle.
Early the next morning, the square where the stone monument of Tianjiaobang is located.
At this time, the wind and snow last night had just stopped for less than half an hour, and the 1,000 people who had climbed the Tianjiao list had already arrived.
After nine months of fierce competition, I finally got a place in the preliminaries, and at this time, no one will be late.
Chu Jingtian was also standing in the crowd, but he was leisurely teasing Xiao Fei on his palm, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
And unlike Chu Jingtian's ease and contentment, Ye Leng and Mo Zikun felt very uncomfortable.
Around them, the disciples of the Eight Great and Fourth Rank Sects all looked at them with a cold gaze.
Among the 1,000 people on the Tianjiao List, more than 600 people are from the Eight Great and Four-Rank Sects, and being looked at by so many people with that kind of murderous eyes, both of them feel a lot of pressure.
In fact, those people's eyes were mainly looking at Chu Jingtian, they were just incidental, but Rao was like this, they all felt a little unbearable.
At this time, the two of them threw themselves to the ground at Chu who was teasing the little crow, and they simply admired the five bodies.
"Whoosh"
Just when the two of them felt that they couldn't bear it, a figure came in the air and suspended above everyone, it was the old man from yesterday.
The old man glanced at everyone, and after confirming that the number of people was correct, he took out a round iron plate the size of a grinding disc and threw it out.
After the iron plate flew out of a distance, it stopped more than twenty meters above the ground, suspended in the void.
The old man flipped his hand and smashed more than a dozen handprints into the disc, and then a faint light on the disc sprinkled onto the ground, forming a huge projection with a diameter of more than fifty meters.
Such a magical scene made everyone in the audience feel extremely surprised, and it was very shocking to the means of the Ice and Snow Divine Palace.
Chu Jingtian also raised his eyebrows in surprise.
The thing that the old man took out he recognized, it was called the array plate. Its function is to form a temporary teleportation array.
To put it simply, the array disk is a kind of pre-arranged, movable teleportation array. And this thing needs at least a high-level rune master to be able to make it.
Being able to take out this thing can at least prove that there are high-level rune masters in the Ice and Snow Divine Palace.
"In groups of two hundred, they take turns to enter the formation. The old man in the void spoke lightly.
As soon as his words fell, a part of the people in front of him stood up, and the old man made a few more handprints, and the white light flashed, and those people teleported out.
A thousand people, in five batches, soon the transmission was over.
When the sense of space-time chaos of teleportation ended, Chu Jingtian found that he was already in a huge circular basin.
The basin was more than a hundred miles in diameter and was surrounded by mountains that were thousands of feet high, and they were completely surrounded by them.
And where they are now is a grassland, with tender green grass and all kinds of wildflowers, a scene full of life and beauty.
"This is where the preliminaries of the Heavenly Selection Contest take place. In the void, the old man spoke, "There are a large number of various cultivation resource treasures in this basin, and your task is to obtain as many resources as possible. ”
"In two and a half months, the people from the Divine Palace will come to pick you up, and when the time comes, you will be ranked according to the value of the resources you have handed over. ”
"As for the top 100, the resources you get are completely owned by you, so how much you can get depends on your respective chances. ”
"Everyone has it," Chu Jingtian sneered in his heart.
On the one hand, telling others to rank resources by their value, and on the other hand, telling them that resources belong to individuals, isn't it a clear idea that others will rob them of their resources?
This Ice and Snow Shrine nominally allowed the top 100 to directly enter the finals, but in fact, the pressure faced by the top 100 in this preliminary round was probably greater than others.
This kind of method is really clever
Immediately, the old man's gaze scanned everyone sternly, "However, I warn you, the scope of your activities is limited to this basin, and if anyone goes out of the range, they will be directly disqualified from joining the Divine Palace." ”
In the end, the old man waved his hand and said, "Okay, you all disperse, the preliminaries will begin, Chu Jingtian, you stay." ”
Hearing this, the crowd was stunned for a moment, and then dispersed in all directions, but when they left, everyone looked at Chu Jingtian with envious eyes.
In their opinion, being left alone by the old man would definitely have some kind of benefit, and even the old man might even tell Chu Jingtian directly where the resources were.
But they also know that this is not enviable, who makes the family the first on the Tianjiao list
Lin Yan glanced at Chu Jingtian with extremely resentful eyes, and then he was very unwilling to take people away.
This honor should have belonged to him, but it was Chu Jingtian who snatched the honor that originally belonged to him, and he couldn't wait to cut Chu Jingtian with a thousand knives.
Originally, he really wanted to attack Chu now, but as soon as the old man did this, his plan could only fail.
Ye Leng and Mo Zikun also walked away for a distance and waited for Chu Jingtian, the old man didn't leave them, they didn't dare to get too close.
"Thank you, seniors. Chu Jingtian bowed slightly to the old man. He saw Lin Yan's eyes when he was leaving, so he also knew that the old man had helped him again.
Regardless of his impression of the Ice and Snow Shrine, this old man had really helped him, so he should be grateful.
"That's all I can do to get you here. The old man fell to the ground, looked at Lin Yan who was walking away, and said, "I have already told the Divine Palace about your matter, and the senior management of the Divine Palace attaches great importance to you." ”
After a slight pause, the old man continued: "Actually, your top 100 contestants, even if they don't have resources, can enter the preliminaries, and with the talent you show, as long as you can achieve a good result in the finals, the resources you can get after joining the Divine Palace will definitely be more than here." ”
"So, I hope you understand that the big husband can bend and stretch, and it's best not to covet those resources. You know, without life, everything is fake. ”
Chu Jingtian frowned, "The meaning of the senior is to let me hide"
"The finals are completely fighting for strength, with your strength, as long as you can enter the finals, the first choice, ten of the best is yours. Although the old man did not answer directly, the meaning of his words was obvious.
"I see. Chu Jingtian nodded.
Cultivation resources are of great effect on a martial artist, how could he be willing to give up.
However, he couldn't tell the old man directly, his strength was not afraid of Lin Yan and the others at all, so he could only say this, he was afraid that if he didn't agree, the old man would continue to persuade him.
"Well, it's good to understand. Sure enough, hearing his words, the old man nodded happily, and then left directly.
Looking at the back of the old man leaving, a faint smile appeared in Chu Jingtian's eyes, and then he walked towards Ye Leng and Mo Zikun.
He is looking forward to what kind of resources he can find in this basin~ so that he can search for basket colors, and he can read the following chapters as soon as possible
