Chapter 62: Elimination
"Song Qing, your son is really hiding deep enough, and he usually allocates his own resources to him, right?" At the judging table, Song Yang looked at Song Qing beside him and pouted.
"What is hidden and not hidden, Yi'er just has less contact with outsiders, and when others are playing and relaxing, he spends his time cultivating. Although Song Qing said this, there was still undisguised pride on his face.
Song Yi's victory was in their expectation, although the way was a little peculiar, but the result was to win, and under the competition stage, Song Mumu also showed a surprised look because of Song Yi's competition, she saw it very clearly, knowing that Song Yi not only did not use the power of vitality in the fight, but also did not even use martial arts, he just relied on the kind of fighting skills that no one had ever seen, and beat Song Yuan to the point where he had no power to fight back.
"Hmph, I can do that too. Snorting coldly, Song Mumu still thought that no matter what method Song Yi used, she would only be the one who could stand to the end next.
At this time, many contestants were talking about the fighting method used by Song Yi, but no matter how they discussed, no one could say why, so they could only hope in their hearts that they would not run into Song Yi next, but the fact is that all the contestants, if they want to stand out, then there will be a high probability of meeting Song Yi, so everyone has to prepare for this possibility.
And for the people of the Yang family in the Taiyun Martial Arts Pavilion, this time this is an eye-opener.
"This guy is not simple, and a lot of things have something to do with him lately. Yang Chen looked at Song Yi and said, the elder also nodded when he heard this: "In the future, in addition to Song Yan and them, this one is called Song Yi, and we also need to pay more attention to it." ”
"Southern District, seventeen-year-old twenty-sixth group, on stage!"
"West District, fifteen-year-old twenty-third group, on stage!"
"North District, sixteen-year-old twenty-fifth group, on stage!"
......
The competition on the competition platform continued, and the referee's voice continued to spread, and in this way, the surrounding onlookers were also diverted from the battle between Song Yi and Song Yuan, and the subsequent battles of the contestants regained the focus of the people around them.
Song Yi stood under the competition stage, because there was almost no consumption, so he continued to observe the competition on the stage, although he won the competition just now, but he knew that this was only the first round of the knockout round.
The knockout competition is like a ladder, half of the people will be eliminated at each level, Song Yi won one, it only means that he has the same qualifications as the other winners to step on the second ladder, and according to the number of sixteen-year-old groups to make a guess, this ladder will have at least five or six layers, Song Yi wants to continue to go up, it is bound to face off against four or five other people, and there may be Song Mumu among them, therefore, Song Yi is still holding the mentality of learning and continues to observe.
Because there are too many people in the sixteen-year-old group, the total number of knockouts will be more than other groups, and half an hour after Song Yi won, the thirteen-year-old group with the smallest number of people has taken the lead in the final result, and this group of only sixteen people at the beginning has gone through four elimination competitions, a total of more than a dozen duels, and finally a winner stands out.
It was a young man from the Heavenly Trumpet Hall, named Song Tong, he was only thirteen years old, and he had already let his own nine main meridians successfully sense the vitality, such an achievement, so that some fourteen-year-old or even fifteen-year-old competitors sighed to themselves, some people even speculated that with such a talent, if you continue to work hard, plus have enough resources, then there is every hope to break through to the Spirit Condensing Realm before the age of fifteen, and at that time, you will have the qualification to enter the Bafang Garden to practice, which is undoubtedly enviable.
However, because Song Tong is too young, only thirteen years old, so according to the rules of the previous junior competition, after standing out from the knockout round, the winner of the thirteen-year-old group will have the right to choose freely, and can choose not to conduct the following cross-age competition, but will not be classified as a waiver and admit defeat, and the reward will still be obtained.
Under the persuasion of an internal clansman in Tianhao Hall, Song Tong made the choice to withdraw from the competition in order to avoid the harm that he might encounter in the next cross-age competition, and Song Yuan and several other hall masters also directly awarded him a reward, which was thirty heavy gold coins, enough in exchange for all the resources to maintain Song Tong's cultivation for two years, but in fact, according to the survey of previous years, many thirteen-year-old group winners will receive most of the rewards after returning home. Confiscated in the name of keeping it for him, and this kind of thing, even the hall master level can't manage it, and it's very helpless.
After the winner of the thirteen-year-old group knockout stage withdrew, all the next competitions only revolved around the age of fourteen to seventeen, in fact, there were not many people in the fourteen-year-old group, more than thirty contestants After five rounds of elimination, there was a teenager with the strength of the ten veins of the spiritual realm, as the winner, he no longer needed to compete on stage in the next knockout rounds, until the winner of the other three age groups appeared.
At this point, more than an hour has passed since the junior competition started in the morning, but the onlookers around the competition platform are still enthusiastic, after all, such a grand event is only once in two years.
Soon, half an hour passed again, and during this time, the fifteen-year-old group had already played four knockout rounds, and at this time, only the last three were left, namely Song Puppet, Song Xiaoxuan, and the child of an elder in the family, the result of the duel between the three is not difficult to predict, the first to be eliminated is the child of the elder of the family, although his cultivation has reached the twelve veins of the sense, but in the face of the young master of the Tianhao Hall, who has been sitting on various cultivation resources since he was a child, and the only daughter of the master of the Qinghao Hall, he has no power to parry, and he is quickly defeated.
At this point, there are only the last two people left in the fifteen-year-old group, that is Song Puppet and Song Xiaoxuan, a young master of Tianhaotang, and a young lady of Qinghaotang, the two are about to have the final competition, and this scene also makes many defeated contestants a little gloomy, they deeply feel how important it is to be born with a good father, even if it is a gentleman like Song Puppet, he can easily go to the final round of the knockout round.
It's just that the duel between Song Puppet and Song Xiaoxuan will be different from any previous competition, this is the first time that the competition has progressed to this moment, and the first competition between two contestants above the Spiritual Realm is very exciting.
"Brother Song Puppet, you are really amazing!"
"It's really worthy of Brother Song, as long as you win one more game, you will be the first in the same age. ”
Under the stage of the competition, Song Puppet was making adjustments and preparations before the final competition, and beside him, dozens of younger brothers kept praising him, and some people were massaging Song Puppet, pinching their arms, beating their shoulders and the like, most of them were defeated in the competition, and their strength was basically between the eight or nine veins of the Spirit, for them, Song Puppet, who had stepped into the Spirit Meditation Realm, was simply the existence of the same goal in life.
"When I win that Song Xiaoxuan, I'll take you to the restaurant..."Enjoying the praise of the younger brothers around him, Song Puppet was also very proud, he was about to say something, but suddenly stopped talking, he remembered his current situation, and immediately changed his words: "I'll take you out for a wave!"
Hearing Song Puppet's sudden words, those little brothers were also quite speechless, they were waiting for Song Puppet to say that he would take him to the restaurant for a big meal, but Song Puppet actually changed his words temporarily, which was too pitiful.
"Sister Xuan, come on!"
"Sister Xuan is invincible!"
On the other side of the competition platform, some of the young people in the Qinghao Hall were cheering for Song Xiaoxuan, and in the midst of the shouts, Song Xiaoxuan just clasped her hands in front of her and closed her eyes to breathe.
At this time, in the special audience, Song Lingtian and others were also discussing.
"Haha, Song Yan, your younger brother is not bad, I thought he only knew how to play, and he didn't have the heart to cultivate at all, but I didn't expect him to still cultivate to the Spirit Condensing Realm, this time let's go back, we can talk to Elder Moyan, let him come over to do the audit, and bring Song Puppet over to hone and hone." Song Lingtian said with a smile.
"It's nothing, in terms of resources, he has at least three times more cultivation resources than other internal clansmen, so he can barely reach the Spirit Condensation Realm, which shows that he is absent-minded. Song Yan said expressionlessly: "When I was the same age as him, I had already reached the peak of the second stage of the Spirit Condensation Realm. ”
However, not everyone is as talented as you, Song Yuqing and the others complained in their hearts, and then Song Yan said: "Between Song Puppet and Song Xiaoxuan, who are you more optimistic about?"
"I think... It's still Song Xiaoxuan, after all, she has the same resources as Song Puppet, but she is more diligent. Song Yuqing said thoughtfully.
"Well, it makes sense, I also bet on Cousin Xiaoxuan to win and bet five gold coins. Song Lingtian nodded and said.
"Who will compensate you if you don't bet on it? Don't bring back the habits in the Bafang Garden. Song Yan glanced at Song Lingtian.
"It's a little gambling. Song Lingtian shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and he looked at Song Yan again: "Our genius hasn't spoken yet, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Song Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, he looked at the martial arts platform not far away, and after a while, he shook his head and said, "I can't say for sure." ”
"I think you're more of your own brother, right?" Song Lingyun patted Song Yan on the shoulder and said with a smile.
And just when Song Lingtian was joking, Song Yan suddenly looked at a contestant's gathering point under the competition stage and said, "It seems that Song Yi's side is about to start the second round." ”
Hearing what Song Yan said, Song Yuqing and the others also looked at it directly, and then they saw that in front of the lottery box, more than 60 sixteen-year-old contestants, including Song Yi and Song Mumu, were starting the draw for the second round of elimination duel, and at this time, it was Song Yi's turn to draw lots.
"Southern District, fifteen-year-old finals group, Song puppet, Song Xiaoxuan, come on stage!"
When Song Yi was drawing lots, there was also a highly anticipated call on the competition platform, which meant that the decisive battle of the fifteen-year-old group was coming.
At this time, in the sixteen-year-old group, Song Yi, who was drawing lots, just touched his duel group, and when he pulled his hand out of the draw box, there was a call for the final of the fifteen-year-old group behind him.
"Has it already started?" Song Yi turned his head and glanced at the Southern District Martial Arts Platform, where Song Mumu and Song Puppet were on stage far from each other, and Song Yi was also very concerned about this battle, but when he turned his head again and looked at the sign in his hand, he knew that he had no chance to watch the battle between Song Mumu and Song Puppet in the audience.
Because the duel group he drew happened to be the first group of the second round.
