276.Chapter 276: The Final Round, the Battle of the Rankings
In the early morning of the third day, the observation tower was already full of people, and obviously no one wanted to miss the real highlight of the title battle of the gold list. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Marshal Jin stood in the center of the ring, glanced around, and said loudly: "In the third round, the battle of rankings, everyone has three chances to challenge, if you win, you can continue to challenge, the first is to compete for the ninth place, Shao Zichen and the eldest princess, your rankings are the ninth and tenth on the gold list respectively, can the eldest princess challenge?"
This ranking is the initial ranking of the second round of competition, for example, Yi Qiu defeated Gu Tianhe, who ranked fourth, then he will temporarily rank fourth on the gold list, and accept the challenge of people with lower rankings than them, of course, if no one is willing to challenge in the third round, Yi Qiu can sit firmly in the fourth place on this year's gold list.
Just like Jiang Yu, basically no one has challenged his first position on the gold list for three consecutive years.
The eldest princess, Ji Nujiao, defeated the tenth-ranked student, so she is now the tenth on the gold list, and only she is eligible to choose to challenge Shao Zichen, who is ranked ninth.
The eldest princess flew out from the third floor of the observation tower and landed in the ring, with a hint of arrogance in her beautiful face, and said: "I challenge the ninth grandson not to lift!"
Gongsun Buju did not come to the stage, but replied directly: "Since the eldest princess is interested in the ninth seat, then I will give it to the eldest princess." ā
Gongsun did not raise it, but he abstained.
The appearance of such a scene can't help but surprise people.
However, many people understand in their hearts that this Gongsun Buju has been pursuing the eldest princess for a long time, and there is not much difference between the ninth and the tenth, so Gongsun Buju directly made a favor and gave up the ninth seat to the eldest princess.
The eldest princess didn't seem to appreciate it, and after a flash of disgust in her eyes, she said, "Then I will continue to challenge Shao Zichen, who is in ninth place." ā
Shao Zichen, who ranked eighth, came to fight. ā
Shao Zichen also flew out of the observation tower and landed in front of the eldest princess.
Marshal Kim retreated, and the two men immediately fought.
Both of them use swords, but the characteristics are completely different, the eldest princess's swordsmanship is smart and elegant, and the sword path is strange and tricky, which is unguardable, while Shao Zichen's sword is like a cheetah, extremely fast.
Now Shao Zichen's cultivation has also reached the ninth level of blood soul, so the cultivation of the two is comparable, and the power of swordsmanship is not equal, so the winner and loser are completely on the sword in their respective hands.
If it was placed in the past, maybe Shao Zichen had already been defeated, after all, the eldest princess's sword was a Xuan-level high-grade sword with two sets of inscriptions, but now Shao Zichen's sword was re-refined by Yi Qiu, and it was engraved with a hegemonic inscription, so Shao Zichen's swordsmanship not only contained the speed of the past, but also the strength was fierce, complementing the swordsmanship he cultivated, and the power increased several times.
"Starlight Chase!"
Shao Zichen shouted, stepped forward, and the brilliant sword burst out in an instant, making the eldest princess's eyes involuntarily close, and when she opened it again, Shao Zichen's sword had already appeared less than an inch in front of her pink neck.
Shao Zichen naturally didn't dare to hurt the eldest princess, so he immediately withdrew his sword and said respectfully: "The eldest princess is offended." ā
The eldest princess blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Shao Zichen's tall body, couldn't help but tremble a little, and said softly: "Brother Shao's swordsmanship is superb, this palace is convinced, and if there is a chance in the future, this palace will also find Brother Shao to learn." ā
Shao Zichen responded with a smile: "The eldest princess can find me at any time." ā
The eldest princess nodded with a smile and floated away.
In this way, the battle for eighth place is over.
However, Shao Zichen did not go down, but stood in the ring and said, "I want to challenge the seventh place Sun Yang!"
The eighth place is Sun Yang of the Imperial Academy, this person uses a spear, which is extraordinary, but it is too bulky, and it happens to be restrained by Shao Zichen's swordsmanship, so after Sun Yang came to power, he was also picked off the platform by Shao Zichen in less than dozens of rounds.
Shao Zichen won two games in a row, which impressed everyone.
Marshal Jin glanced at Shao Zichen and asked, "Are you still going on?"
Shao Zichen took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Go on!"
At this time, Li Xingkong also went to the battlefield, since the beast tide hunting, after being severely injured by Yi Qiu, this month, he has been in retreat to heal, and now although most of his injuries are healed, he has not recovered his peak strength, so in the face of Shao Zichen, whose strength has increased greatly, he still has a trace of fear.
Before Shao Zichen came here, he had been told by Yi Qiu that Li Xingkong had been seriously injured by him, so when he competed, Shao Zichen did as Yi Qiu said, and attacked the right side of Li Xingkong's body, and sure enough, Li Xingkong was immediately suppressed by Shao Zichen, and he had no power to fight back, and it didn't take long for him to be defeated!
Win three games in a row!
Shao Zichen went straight to the sixth place on the gold list, and the Sword Martial Arts Academy was also demoralized.
Just when everyone thought that Shao Zichen would rush into the top five in one go, Shao Zichen directly gave up the challenge.
Shao Zichen knew that although there was only one difference between the sixth and fifth on the gold list, their strength was like heaven and earth, even if Yan Xiaoxiao, who was fifth on the gold list, had already reached the peak of the ninth level of blood soul, which was a lot higher than his cultivation, even if his sword was sharp, it was impossible to make up for the gap between his cultivation, after all, he was not the pervert of Yi Qiu.
Of course, being able to rush to the sixth place on the gold list was already an unexpected surprise for him, and he also understood that he was able to have such an achievement entirely because of the sword refined by Yi Qiu, otherwise with his strength, it is estimated that even the eldest princess would not be able to resist it.
Shao Zichen gave up the battle for the fifth place, so the next battle was directly for the fourth place, but Yan Xiaoxiao knew that he was not Yi Qiu's opponent, so he also gave up the challenge directly.
At this moment, it was finally Yi Qiu's turn to make a move.
Yi Qiu's figure flickered, and he appeared in the ring with a calm expression, and said, "I want to challenge Jin Caiyue, who is third on the gold list." ā
Jin Caiyue chuckled, and before anyone could say anything, she arrived first: "Boy, this third, this girl has been sitting for too long, since you want it, you can take it." ā
As soon as these words came out, the hall was in an uproar.
Jin Caiyue, who is third on the gold list, actually took the initiative to admit defeat! This sun didn't come out of the west!
Murong Qingyu knew Jin Caiyue's thoughts, and pursed her lips and smiled: "Do you want to fulfill Yi Qiu?" In this way, Senior Sister is not at all confident in him. ā
Jin Caiyue smiled and said, "I believe that he can defeat Ji Rulong, but I don't believe that he can defeat Jiang Yu, because Jiang Yu is likely to have entered the Blood Sect." ā
When Murong Qingyu heard this, the smile on his face disappeared, and he sighed and said, "If that's the case, then I don't want him to challenge Jiang Yu, after all, the Blood Sect and the Blood Soul are two different things!"
