Chapter 314: Bad luck.
"In the fifty-fifth ring, the Muchen team advanced to the mid-term round and transferred to the Imperial College Arena. The Ombudsman said with no surprise on his face.
"In Ring 76, the Crane squad advanced to the mid-term tournament and transferred to the Imperial College Arena. There was another low shout in the distance.
Mu Chen and the others looked towards the No. 76 ring in unison, it was Qiu He who was standing in that ring, at this time Qiu He was dressed in white and Shengxue, I don't know if there was an illusion, Ye Shuangshuang Xiaohu and others always felt that Qiu He's dress was almost similar to Mu Chen's, his expression was indifferent, and several people behind him stood straight.
Mu Chen's spiritual power instantly spread out and completely enveloped the seventy-sixth ring, and after a while, Mu Chen withdrew his spiritual power with a smile and said, "Let's go, Qiu He was able to pass the preliminary round without any accidents, their team turned out to be all at the level of the Eighth Ring Martial Artist, and Qiu He himself had reached the First Ring Great Martial Master." ”
Qinglei pursed his lips and smiled, "Is that really the case? That kid is chasing very fiercely, it seems that he can't be lazy in the future." ”
Ye Shuangshuang said, "Not really, he belongs to an ordinary martial artist, and his cultivation speed is many times faster than ours, so the effect of taking Juyuan Dan on him is far greater than ours, and he can break through so quickly because of the effect of Juyuan Dan." ”
Mo Qing squeezed Ye Shuangshuang's hand and said, "You can't veto people like this, his efforts are obvious to everyone, he is chasing us, so we can't have a trace of slackness." ”
After speaking, Mo Qingshuirou's eyes secretly looked at Mu Chen, and the corners of her mouth raised and said softly, "Because... We've got people to chase..."
Of course, Mo Qing's words were only heard by her, Mu Chen took a step and said, "Let's go." ”
Xiaohu and the others automatically gave up half of their positions, this kind of action was already to regard Mu Chen as the backbone of them, and Mu Chen could only smile helplessly.
The Imperial Academy Arena is a special place, although it is an arena, but the Templar students almost don't use it, so most of the people who use this arena on weekdays are students from the outer circle, and Mu Chen once came to see it once when he was bored.
To be honest, Mu Chen was attracted by its magnificent architectural form and gorgeous decoration when he first saw this building, which is simply a work of art.
Its entire form is dynamic, with a large circular plane at the top, which is getting smaller and narrower like a spinning top from top to bottom. But even so, it stands upright and the outer layer of the building is constantly rotating, and the construction of this kind of building is a miracle from the point of view of common sense.
On the periphery of the building, there is a wall more than ten meters high, the wall is milky white, the wall is carved with the appearance of countless warriors and warriors fighting, and it is more artistic to feel that the door is cast by a huge long sword and a huge shield, when closed, the shield and sword intersect, making people feel that there is a sense of killing at a glance, when the shield and sword are separated, but there is a feeling of saber rattling.
Gently putting his palm on the giant sword, the gate retracted into the wall by itself as if sensing the things around it, and Mu Chen couldn't help but sigh The greatness of the architect.
Xiaohu's eyes have long been overwhelmed, he has grown up in the primitive orc tribe, in addition to tents and grass huts in the tribe, he has never seen these magnificent buildings a few times since he was born, let alone such a strange building.
Entering it, there are stone carvings of warriors on both sides, in short, everything here is inseparable from the battle, the arena, as it should be...
The location of the mid-stage competition is at the top of the arena, where there are ten wide competitive rings, and it is very easy for martial artists to walk to the top of the building from here, Mu Chen and they belong to the first team to win, so they are naturally the first to arrive.
The weather in the Xuanling Empire is very stable, this completely open battle stage is in the open air, Mu Chen was not too surprised because he had been here once, Qinglei Moqing and Ye Shuangshuang were both standing in place and looking around, but Xiaohu was like a curious baby jumping and jumping up close, and from time to time everyone couldn't help but laugh.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, there was a noisy sound under the arena, and Mu Chen and the others immediately looked towards the door, and sure enough, after the first person entered, countless students rushed up from below, what about the instructors? Of course, they all flew up in the air.
Only 600 of the 6,000 participating students arrived in this arena, and in just one hour, more than 5,000 students were eliminated, and when they arrived here and advanced again, there were only 60 people around them. Mu Chen looked around, and soon found the familiar thirty-five people in the crowd.
Seeing Mu Chen come over, the students of the Demon Castle smiled at Mu Chen, and Mu Chen also smiled back, "It seems that everyone has really improved a lot." ”
Seeing that everyone was here, he nodded a little black bald and said, "Children, the competition is cruel, after the first round of elimination, the number of participants from 6,000 has been suddenly reduced to 600, but this is just the beginning, because you have only advanced to the preliminary round, and as for this, this is the place where your mid-term competition will take place." There are ten arenas, each with ten teams competing in the same way as the preliminary round, and again, here you will only be able to leave a tenth of them. ”
Hearing this, Ye Shuangshuang said, "In this case, the chances of our Demon Castle students encountering it will be much higher." ”
Mo Qing nodded and said, "Yes, but this is also unavoidable." ”
Mu Chen didn't have any idea about this, since it was a competition, there would inevitably be winners and losers, only in the competition, could he find out his own shortcomings, and only after experiencing defeat could he make himself stronger, so the magic castle needed such competition.
"There's not much time, let's hurry up, and the captains of all the teams below will come out to draw lots. With a wave of his arm, the ten obscura that had already been prepared had already been taken up by various mentors.
Mu Chen didn't go out, he had already said just now, the next draw gave Xiaohu full agency, so Xiaohu ran up with a red face, and the other captains saw that it was Xiaohu who drew lots, so they didn't deliberately let go, which shows how unique Mu Chen is in their hearts.
After lining up two people, it was finally time for Xiaohu, rubbing his hands, Xiaohu reached into the camera obsccura and pulled out a white note, which was written with three words.
The mentor glanced at the number Xiaohu had chosen, and said loudly, "Muchen Squad, No. 3 Ring." ”
As soon as this voice was announced, countless sighs were immediately heard, not for others, those sighs must be the squad in the same ring as Mu Chen.
Under the leadership of Mu Chen, Mo Qing and the others had already come to the bottom of the No. 3 ring, and here, Mu Chen saw a team of familiar players, this team was none other than Qiu He's team.
Mu Chen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Qiu He, why are you also the third ring?"
Qiu He nodded helplessly and said, "I have bad luck, I thought I could continue to sprint forward a few places, but I didn't expect to meet the squad leader here, but this is also a kind of luck, after all, I can fight the squad leader early, even if I know that I will lose, but I can't help but be excited." ”
Mu Chen smiled, "This is what I like about you, if you can keep this mentality, you will definitely not be worse than me, come on!"
"Hmm. ”
After getting Mu Chen's affirmation, Qiu He was obviously a little excited, I don't know why, he always felt that the man named Mu Muchen in front of him would one day stand in a position that even people couldn't look up to, and getting his approval was even more happy than getting his own recognition.
"Alas. Qing Lei glanced at the No. 5 ring and sighed, "It seems that all the students of the Demon Castle are going to be planted in the No. 5 ring." ”
Hearing this, Mu Chen looked at the No. 5 ring strangely, it didn't matter what he looked at, and suddenly there was a feeling that God was playing tricks on people, the students of the Demon Castle were originally only thirty-five people, Mu Chen, Mo Qing, Xiaohu, Qinglei, Ye Shuangshuang were just five teams, and now the No. 3 ring occupies two, but the other four teams are all in the No. 5 ring, is this the rhythm of death?
It was obvious that Qiu He had also discovered this phenomenon, and just shook his head and looked at Mu Chen with a wry smile. Mu Chen smiled slightly, and said indifferently, "It's okay, anyway, we didn't come for the reward this time, we just wanted to hone ourselves, and to be able to fight with people of our own strength, but it was the most important meaning of this competition." ”
Qiu He suddenly realized, "That's what I said." ”
After the words fell, every team in each ring had already finished standing, but the people who were supervising in each ring this time were no longer students, but mentors.
A Sven tutor wearing a red robe and a scholar's mirror walked over with a black box, "Students, come up and draw lots." ”
His voice is very gentle, just listening to it has the feeling of a literati and ink writer, Xiaohu was sent by Mu Chen again, this time Xiaohu gave a hand, and actually drew the number one, what does the number one represent, it represents the opening, as long as he wins this one, then he doesn't have to wait for others to finish the game.
The second one to go up was Qiu He, Qiu He's luck seemed to be really bad, he actually got the tenth, there were four battles ahead, and he still had to wait for some time.
After Qiu He stepped down, he took a deep breath and said, "I didn't meet the squad leader in the first game, I don't know if it was good luck or bad luck." ”
Mu Chen said, "It's all the same, anyway, the last thing to meet must be our two teams." ”
"That's right. ”
The remaining eight captains also walked up one after another and drew their own numbers, Mu Chen didn't pay attention to the others, he just needed to see the team that took the second team, the second team is an outer circle team, but judging from the appearance of the captain, their average age is not young.
"In the first battle, the Muchen team in the outer circle and the Xue Wen team in the outer circle will fight, and the two teams will be invited to come on stage..." )
