Chapter 506: The Tournament Begins
Although Xing Shuchen was angry, he did not lose his mind. His hands-on behavior succeeded in giving Lei Xiao a false hint that he was not really strong.
In Lei Xiao's opinion, this Xing Shi had already shown anger just now, so if he was strong enough, Xing Shi would definitely be eager to fight with himself and his subordinates.
But he didn't do this, but used the name of Wudian to pressure himself and coerce himself not to do anything, which shows that he is not able to deal with his own confidence, but is just talking fast.
Of course, his idea was wrong, but unfortunately Lei Xiao didn't know that he had fallen into the trap set for him by Xing Shuchen at this time, and he would fall deeper and deeper into this trap.
After Xing Shuchen went back, he fell into a state of seclusion again, and even Emperor Caitong couldn't help but say that he was a cultivator, and the registration was originally scheduled for three days, but because of the large number of participants this time, it was extended to five days.
Many young backbones who are hidden by the forces have almost come out this time, and this Liu Feng City has also become extremely lively. In fact, it's not just Liufeng City, it's every city in this Mufu.
And on the third day after the registration deadline, it was finally the Liufeng City division that ushered in the martial arts. All the contestants were divided into five groups, and each group took the top 10, and then the 50 people played against each other to win the top 10. In the end, these ten people will represent Liu Feng City to participate in the official martial arts ceremony held by Mu Mansion.
There were twenty-two cities in the territory of Mufu, and this was true for each of them. In the end, these two hundred and twenty people, as well as the twenty people selected by Mufu Futai, a total of 240 people, participated in the final competition.
Xing Jichen and the three of them were actually divided into three groups, which means that before the second round of screening, the three of them will not meet each other.
However, coincidentally, Xing Shuchen was actually assigned to a group with Lei Tingting's brother, not the eldest brother Lei Xiao, but his second brother, Lei Li.
The Lei family has a total of three brothers, okay, let's count Lei Tingting as a younger brother for the time being. As the third child, he is not strong enough to participate in the martial arts, but his eldest brother and second brother have this strength. Xing Shuchen failed to meet this sissy eldest brother, but he didn't expect to meet his second brother.
Although Lei Li's strength is a little worse than Lei Xiao, if it is compared with Lei Tingting, who is neither male nor female, it is much higher. However, it is only enough to meet the threshold of Wudian's participation, and the seven lights are gradually brightening.
This kind of strength is basically a cannon fodder-like role in the martial arts, and Xing Shuchen didn't care about it at all. If he can meet it, then he will clean it up, if he can't meet it, it doesn't matter, he doesn't think this guy can get the top ten in the group at all.
As for that Lei Xiao, he was actually assigned to another group other than the three of them, and his luck was really good, Xing Shuchen did not find the monk in that group, so the chance of Lei Xiao coming out was still very high.
After the group is divided, the lottery competition begins. The draw is very simple, if the group is double, then the people who have the same serial number are drawn to play together, and the order is from the first to the bottom.
If the number of people is single, then there will be an empty lot, and the person who draws the empty lot has a bye, and the others are the same as the people in the double array. Five rings compete together.
The number of people in Xing Shuchen's group is an odd number, and he was lucky to draw an empty lot, that is, he won a round without doing anything.
However, he seems to be the only one who is full of luck, the number of people in Emperor Caitong's group is also an odd number, and she has also drawn an empty lot.
As for Xiao Lin, the number of people in their group is not an odd number, no matter how lucky he is, he can't empty his turn. So he could only wait for the competition, and he drew the thirty-eighth, and was ridiculed by Xing Shuchen.
This first round of competition is the longest round of competition in the entire selection competition, and those who have a bye will be very happy. Xing Shuchen is now, and he doesn't know what to do when he is idle.
Emperor Caitong is in a similar situation, and I really don't know what to do. Xiao Lin's game still has more than 30 rounds to start, and he is actually quite idle.
Unlike those guys who meditate and meditate before the competition, trying to adjust their state to the best or something, Xiao Lin just needs to play on time. With his five-fold strength, if he really wants to fight, even if the players in their group go together, he can push it horizontally.
So the three of them got together, and suddenly found that he was the number four in the group of Lei Xiao on the billboard, and the playing time was very early, so the three decided to watch his game.
The first three groups of them competed quite fast, and it didn't take long for the three of them to come over, and it was Lei Xiao's turn. The strength of their pair can be said to be equal, the other party is also a gradually bright nine lights, and like Lei Xiao, it is the late stage of nine lights, the strength of the two sides is about the same, it seems that it will be a dragon fight.
Of course, this is what the audience thinks, but Xing Shuchen and the three of them don't think so. The three of them could see that Lei Xiao had hidden his strength, he was actually not in the late stage of the Nine Lights, he was just disguised like this.
The two of them obviously knew each other, and after announcing the start, neither side rushed to make a move, but first talked about the old days.
The opponent who only heard Lei Xiao was the first to speak: "Lei Xiao, I really didn't expect to meet you in the first round." ”
"Yes, Zou Cheng, I didn't expect to meet you in the first round. Lei Xiao still smiled and spoke. The more he looks at it, the more annoying he gets, and every time he looks at it, he feels hypocritical.
Xing Shuchen really wants to clean up this guy now, if he can meet it in the second round, he doesn't mind making this thing laugh again.
"I remember that the last time we competed was a year ago, the last time I lost to you by one move, I was really unwilling, I didn't expect to give me a chance to take revenge today. The man's expression was strange when he said this, and his eyes flashed, as if there was something deep in his words.
"Really? I'm afraid you don't have this opportunity. Lei Xiao still laughed.
Xing Shuchen looked at the two of them, and even smelled a smell of gunpowder, and at this moment, a voice came to their ears:
"His name is Zou Cheng, he is the deputy commander of the patrol battalion in the city, and he lost to Lei Xiao a year ago, but Lei Xiao used some not very honorable means at that time. So in fact, he really doesn't look down on this Lei Xiao, but he can't help the other party. ”
Feng Hao and Lao Luo didn't know when they appeared, so they came to the three of them and solved the confusion of the three who were puzzled.
"How did you find us?" the three of them had already noticed their arrival, just wondering how they had found them among so many people.
"Coincidentally, we actually came to see Lei Xiao's game, but I didn't expect to see you, so we came over. Feng Hao explained.
"Okay. Xing Shuchen understood why they paid so much attention to Lei Xiao, mainly because he was afraid that he could also achieve the top twenty in the martial arts.
At that time, even if Xing Shuchen denounces it in front of the mansion master, if this Lei Xiao is selected by the mansion, even if the Law Enforcement Institute is punished, if Lei Xiao is fine, it will still be a disaster for them in the future.
But Xing Jichen didn't think he had this opportunity, after all, he had already found five of the contestants. This is just one city, a total of twenty-two cities, plus the twenty people selected by the prefecture, this Lei Xiao wants to get the top twenty, the chance is almost zero.
Although he didn't think Lei Xiao had a chance, Xing Shuchen still comforted Feng Hao and said, "Don't worry, even if he can survive the first round, as long as he meets one of the three of us in the second round, he won't let him enter the top ten." And even if he enters the top ten, the official martial arts canon is not so easy. ”
When Feng Hao heard this, his tense expression was also slightly better-looking.
While they were talking, Na Lei Xiao and Zou Cheng had already exchanged hands. This Zou Cheng's palm method is very strange, every time he comes out with both palms, one palm is empty, and the other palm is solid. But he couldn't feel or see the reality of his palms, because the wind felt the same, so Lei Xiao had to guess every time.
This Lei Xiao obviously hasn't seen Zou Cheng's palm technique, because there is no countermeasure at all, so he is very passive now.
"This Zou Cheng's palm technique is not ordinary, one virtual and one real, changing back and forth, making Lei Xiao stumble left and right. Xing Shuchen squinted his eyes and commented.
But Feng Hao was a little puzzled: "Since you don't know which side of your palms is virtual and which side is real, then you can defend it." Why is this Lei Xiao so difficult to fight?"
"It's not that simple. Xing Shuchen shook his head: "The so-called defense is to resist the force with force, and use your internal force to resist the external force of the other party." But this is mutual, Lei Xiao is defending on both sides, but you must know that of the two points he defends, only one point can be solidified, and the other point is equivalent to failure. If the opponent's palm misses, so does the power of defense.
If the internal force can't get out, it can only be withdrawn, and this recovered force is actually a burden on the body. Therefore, every palm of Zou Cheng will cause a little damage to Lei Xiao, even if he defends it. Do you think he can not be passive? What's more, his palm technique is far more than that. ”
Xing Shuchen had cultivated the Dragon Shaking Sutra and had studied the force very thoroughly, so he was able to tell the first terrifying point of this palm technique that even Zou Cheng himself couldn't tell the specific reason.
Feng Hao reacted quickly, and after listening to Xing Shuchen's words, he immediately asked, "Could it be that this palm technique is even more powerful." ”
"Of course, you'll have to wait and see. Xing Shuchen smiled, and then his eyes condensed slightly:
"Lei Xiao is going to fight back!"
