Chapter Seventy-Seven: Bye

Si Jinghui saw that Chen Qiang's attitude was resolute, so he stopped mentioning the matter of the head of the house, and after asking for the detailed path to the fierce tiger slope, he said goodbye and left.

The big competition is in full swing, Chen Qiang's opponent in the third round is still an unknown person, and after he easily defeated his opponent, he successfully entered the fourth round.

Maybe it really got the favor of the goddess of luck, there are a total of 25 players in the fourth round, and there will definitely be one bye, and the bye place was lucky to be drawn by Chen Qiang.

Since then, the number of people in each round has been an odd number, and there will be one bye in each round, and Chen Qiang is like opening a certain aura, and the bye in each round will be drawn by him.

It wasn't until the semi-finals, when the top four places were born, that the number of people was doubled, and this trend was stopped.

The top four are Qin Chengyu, who has five pairs of combat power, Tong Zhen, who is good at sword array attacks, Lang Ming, who is not prestigious, and Chen Qiang, who is unknown.

Qin Chengyu crushed his opponent all the way to advance, and no one was able to survive twenty rounds in his hands, including many Tianjiao figures, such as Yao Fang, a disciple of Tianjiao in Piaoxue Peak, who only lasted eighteen rounds under Qin Chengyu before being eliminated.

Innocent, he actually practiced a single sword formation, the sword formation was shrouded, like ten thousand arrows firing at once, no one could survive the three breaths in the sword formation, and like Qin Chengyu, he was the favorite to win the championship.

The name of Lang Ming is widely spread among Tianjiao characters, but for ordinary martial arts cultivators, it is not so famous, I only know that this person is Qin Chengyu's follower, as for the strength, everyone does not have any intuitive impression, and they are just passable if they think about it.

As for Chen Qiang, this is an accident for many people, a joke, a guy who has taken shit luck, and he has a bye all the way to the semi-finals, a result that even the organizer Xingluo Academy did not expect.

For this reason, the elders who presided over the big competition also held a temporary meeting to conduct a heated debate on whether Chen Qiang was qualified to enter the semi-finals, and finally came to a unanimous conclusion that the draw was absolutely fair and just, and there was no possibility of fraud, so Chen Qiang's qualification to enter the semi-finals could not be canceled, but the fourth place reward was canceled.

Since the past sessions, the top four in the big competition have been rewarded, but this year made an exception for the Chen Qiang incident, and the thirty best spirit stones in the fourth place were all awarded to the winners of the first place.

The rewards of the previous competitions are as follows: the first place, 70 top-grade spirit stones, plus a spirit treasure, the second place, 70 top-grade spirit stones, the third place, 50 top-grade spirit stones, and the fourth place, 30 top-grade spirit stones. Only the first place has a spirit treasure reward, which shows that the spirit treasure is rarer and more precious than the best spirit stone.

And this year, the rewards for the second and third places remain the same, the fourth place does not have any rewards, the first place can get one hundred top-grade spirit stones, and the spirit treasure rewards remain the same.

......

The semifinals began, and the draw results of this semi-final were, Chen Qiang VS Langming, Qin Chengyu VS Tong Zhen.

The semi-finals were held and moved to Douwu Peak, where the fighting ring is larger, the fighting arena can accommodate 100,000 people at the same time, and there are eight huge holographic crystal projection screens erected outside the fighting arena, which can ensure that people who cannot enter the fighting arena can also watch the game in real time.

The ring in the center of the arena is a square battle platform with a length of 500 meters and a width of 500 meters, and the ground of the ring is paved with incomparably solid spiritual materials.

The ring is surrounded by a gentle slope that gradually rises and climbs the steps, which is no different from a modern stadium, which can ensure that the spectators in the arena can see the game in the ring from all directions.

Chen Qiang was alone, walking out of the passage below, and seeing the dense martial arts cultivators in all directions, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.

His fighting spirit was ignited, his eyes became more and more determined, and he involuntarily let out a long howl, but he was greeted by a huge boo.

One hundred thousand martial cultivators booed at the same time, and the momentum was extremely huge, and the clouds in the sky were directly dispersed.

"Shady!"

"Shady!"

......

I don't know who started it, the word 'shady' gradually spread, until it swept the entire Douwu Arena, and a huge sound seemed to overturn Douwu Peak.

"Quiet!"

Suddenly, a flat thunder sounded, the martial arts arena instantly quieted down, Chen Qiang raised his head and looked, this elder had a majestic face and was not tall, but at this time he looked infinitely tall.

After the scene quieted down, the majestic-faced elder continued: "Everyone, the annual martial arts competition is a grand event of Star Luo Academy, there are countless applicants, and some accidents are inevitable, I solemnly promise here that there will never be any shady scenes as you say. ”

"Chen Qiang, right? You can stand out from the first three rounds, you still have the strength, but from the fourth round onwards, you can rely on byes to advance, whether it's because of luck or some other reason, it's a little unreasonable. Therefore, we, the judges and elders, have unanimously decided to cancel the prize for fourth place this year, and if you really have the strength, you will strive for the top three, if it is just luck, then this is the end of it. ”

What the majestic elder said to Chen Qiang was not untargeted, the best spirit stones are very precious and rare, only the rich spirit stone mine can produce them, and the output is not high, a rich spirit stone mine can only produce one or two best spirit stones every year.

The role of the best spirit stone is not only currency, or to provide aura for martial arts, because the aura contained in the best spirit stone is very pure, without the slightest impurities, it has an extremely important role for martial arts to break through the barriers, and has a similar effect on all realms of martial arts, which is a very important strategic resource.

Just imagine, how could such an important strategic resource be enjoyed by a disciple who only had luck? The one who could obtain the reward of the best spirit stone must be the Tianjiao who came out of the battle, the hope of the future of the human race, and the person who can carry the banner of resisting the demon race.

Chen Qiang stood at the bottom of the ring, listening to the elder's words, his face did not change in the slightest, and his eyes were as resolute as ever.

Being able to advance all the way to the semi-finals was something he didn't expect in advance, and he didn't participate in a single game for several days in a row, which was not a good thing for him, and his lack of experience in fighting against the second-level Tianjiao made him somewhat passive.

However, he didn't care too much about it, things had come to this point, there was no possibility of backing down, he was confident in his strength.

"Okay, now I invite Lang Ming and Chen Qiang to the stage, I hope the two of them can bring you a wonderful showdown!"

Seeing that Chen Qiang had nothing to say, the majestic-looking elder directly announced the start of the game.
