Chapter 181: Ranked Battle
At this time, it was just dawn, and the qualifying battle started at eight o'clock in the morning, and there was a simple opening ceremony at that time, and the qualifying battle of the three grades was separated, first of all, the lower grade and the middle grade, and the middle grade ranked in the afternoon, and the lower grade ranked in the morning.
Therefore, there is still a morning left for Ye Fan to adapt, and after the end of the ranking battle between the lower and middle grades, it will be the turn of the senior grades, mainly because the strength of the senior grades is stronger than the other two grades, and it is arranged at the end, which is conducive to the students of the remaining two grades to watch the battle, which is very beneficial to them.
The time of the ranked battle is not continuous, according to the records of previous years, it will take at least twenty days, not all students in each grade can participate in the ranked battle, first of all, they must go through the selection of classes, there are ninety-nine classes in each grade of Purple Wind Academy, and the number of people in each class is different.
With the addition of the three classes of the Purple Wind Hall, there are exactly three hundred classes in the entire Purple Wind Academy, which is a tradition that the Purple Wind Academy has maintained since its establishment.
The top ten in each class are selected in nine hundred and ninety, plus the top ten students in the previous ranking battle as seeded players, a total of one thousand, these students have to go through rounds of battles before they can enter the ranked battle, although the ranking battle is to select the top 100 in each grade, but it is also a rare experience for other students, so every student will go all out.
Among these students, there are many people who are evenly matched, and it takes a lot of time to distinguish the winner from the loser, so although there are many rings prepared by the Purple Wind Academy, it will still last for a long time.
The rules of the qualifying battle are very simple, first a thousand people will be randomly divided into fifty groups, each group of twenty people, these twenty people will have a round-robin match, everyone will play against each other, the winner gets two points, the tie gets one point, the loser has no points, a total of nineteen rounds of competition, the three people with the highest score enter the next round.
Each group of three people, fifty groups are one hundred and fifty people, the one hundred and fifty people who enter the next round are divided into ten groups, and the reincarnation competition is carried out again, the top five directly advance to the top 100, and the remaining 100 people are randomly assigned to conduct a round of elimination, select the remaining top 100, and the rest are all eliminated.
Overall, although there is still some luck component, but in general it is relatively fair, after the top 100 are decided, the top 25 will be directly selected by the knockout round, these 25 people continue to play, the order is discharged, and the rest will no longer fight, because although the ranking battle is to select the top 100, but the real ranking is only twenty-five.
The ranking battle of each grade takes a lot of time, and the three grades need more time, so each battle is arranged very tightly, and in the later stage, it is likely that several battles will be fought in a day, which is not only a competition of combat power for the students, but also a competition of willpower and resilience.
Ye Fan didn't go to the Absolute Wind Valley, but came to a martial arts training ground at random, because today is the time for the start of the qualifying battle, so there are very few people in the martial arts training ground, and although Ye Fan's reputation in the Purple Wind Academy is not small, but not many people have really seen him, so he is not recognized.
After entering the martial arts training ground, Ye Fan randomly found a remote place, there was not only a large open space on the martial arts training ground, but also some things to assist in cultivation, but those did not have much effect on Ye Fan, because most of them were just used to exercise ** strength, and what Ye Fan needed now was to adapt to the current state.
After coming to a remote open space, Ye Fan directly took out the Xingchen Sword and began to practice swordsmanship, wanting to adapt to the current state as quickly as possible, only through battle, but now there is obviously no one to fight with him, so he can only adapt by practicing martial arts by himself.
Ye Fan practiced the earliest swordsmanship he cultivated, the Qingfeng Swordsmanship, although this set of swordsmanship is only Xuan-level, but it is very good for building a foundation, and now Ye Fan is using this set of swordsmanship to adapt to today's strength.
Although the Xingchen Sword is called a sword, there are still some differences between it and the sword, so when Ye Fan first performed the Qingfeng Sword Technique, he was still a little uncomfortable, but he quickly changed it, and now although Ye Fan cannot be said to be a master in terms of swordsmanship, it is also rare among his peers.
And the Qingfeng Sword Technique is a set of swordsmanship that Ye Fan has practiced for the longest time, and he has already completely mastered the essence of it, with the practice of the Qingfeng Sword Technique, Ye Fan feels that he has finally begun to adapt to the current state, although he has not fully adapted, but he can also exert his combat effectiveness.
Ye Fan thought about it for a while, and decided to use other swordsmanship as well, although he only participated in the middle-grade ranking battle, but there must be a lot of strong people among them, such as Dugu Zhan, as well as Xue Qing and others who participated in the assessment at the same time as him, none of these people are weak.
Moreover, there are also the top few in the last ranking battle, and if they want to be promoted to advanced students, they can only do it in the promotion assessment a month later, so now they have the strength of senior students, and they may not be able to threaten Ye Fan.
It is very difficult for Ye Fan to win the championship in his current state, and if necessary, he may expose more strength, so it is better to adapt in advance.
After thinking of this, Ye Fan began to display his martial arts one by one, first the Yan Lie Sword Technique, and now Ye Fan has already completely cultivated the Yan Lie Sword Technique, but because the fighting spirit is restricted, it is a little difficult to perform the last few tricks.
After that, there were three thousand yin fire claws, the last time he fought with Li Tianxiang, Ye Fan had already cultivated the three thousand yin fire claws to the point of one hundred claws, but now because of the restrictions on his fighting spirit and physical strength, Ye Fan can no longer use them, unless he completely adapts to his current state.
After the three thousand Yin Fire Claws, there is also the Fire Yuan Sword Technique, the Fire Yuan Sword Technique is Ye Fan's self-created sword technique, and it is also one of his hole cards, its strength is obvious, the last time he was able to force Huang Liang to use the Qingtian Seal to resist, he can see one or two.
In the end, the last thing left is the body method, the body method he uses is still the Flame Meteor Step, and now the Flame Meteor Step is not very helpful to Ye Fan, but the Meteor Nine Flashes in it are still very useful, and he has no better choice now, so he did not replace it.
After being sealed by the Vulcan Lock, the biggest impact is undoubtedly the body method, Ye Fan's body method has dropped several grades compared to before, after Ye Fan finished cultivating, he estimated his current strength, I am afraid it is worse than Dugu Zhan, but he and Dugu Zhan should not fight too early, as long as there is a buffer in the middle, Ye Fan can quickly adapt in the battle, there should still be some hope.
After finishing his cultivation, Ye Fan was already sweating a lot, and after returning to the dormitory to wash up briefly, he went directly to the restaurant to eat, Zifeng Academy is worthy of being one of the three super colleges in the mainland, both the teaching quality and the quality of life are outstanding, and the meals in the restaurant are no worse than the hotels outside.
Ye Fan simply asked for two dishes, plus a few steamed buns and eggs, because most of the cultivators' meals were not small, so the quality of the meals in the Purple Wind Academy was very high, and these things were enough for Ye Fan to eat.
Randomly found a table, Ye Fan just sat down, Tianhuo left Ye Fan's wrist and ran to the table, every time when Ye Fan cultivated, Tianhuo would wrap around Ye Fan's wrist, which was also very helpful for its strength, and now Tianhuo, who had just woken up from his slumber, naturally would not stay on Ye Fan's wrist all the time.
Tianhuo, who ran to the table, did not have the slightest politeness, and ate the meat dish directly in a bowl, and only after taking a bite, Tianhuo stopped, and then shook his head, as if to say that this dish was not delicious.
In fact, it is completely okay for Tianhuo not to eat, as long as it stays by Ye Fan's side every day, it can maintain life by absorbing aura, but some foods also have a lot of energy, and the taste is very good, just like the barbecue made by Ye Fan, which contains rich fire attribute energy.
After feeling that the dishes in the bowl were not delicious, Tianhuo no longer paid attention to it, but swam around the table at will, and when there were students or teachers passing by, they would occasionally look at it in surprise, but they didn't have too many expressions, they naturally couldn't see the magic of Tianhuo, but they just felt that this snake looked a little special and beautiful.
Ignoring the constantly swimming Tianhuo, Ye Fan quickly finished eating, then grabbed the Tianhuo, put it on his shoulder, and then rushed towards the place between the middle grade and the senior grade.
This is the largest martial arts training ground in the entire Purple Wind Academy, with a length and width of more than a few kilometers, and it is also a place for important activities in the Purple Wind Academy, and the location of the qualifying battle is here, in this martial arts training ground, a whole ten rings have already been built, and these rings are all built with hard Qingxuan stone, which is very hard, even if Ye Fan is full of strength, he may not be able to break it up.
When Ye Fan came here, thousands of people had already gathered here, and although the time had not yet come, many people had already come here.
The audience around the ring was divided into different areas, Ye Fan quickly found the area where the middle grade was located, and then found the intermediate class in it, although Ye Fan was a student of the intermediate class, but he had never been to the intermediate class and did not know anyone, Xia Lan had not come over at this time, so Ye Fan could only stand there and wait.
As time went by, there were more and more students around, there were tens of thousands of students in the Purple Wind Academy alone, and it could be described as a sea of people at a glance, and on the day of the entrance assessment, Ye Fan had never seen so many people gathered together, and he couldn't help but feel a little distracted for a while.
