Chapter 37: When the Contest Goes Through (Part II)
The first round of the tournament consisted of 526 matches, divided into 20 competing tables, but it also took more than five hours to finish, and it was already noon. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a short break, the second round of the tournament began directly.
"It's still the same as in the first round, all 526 of the winning players will go to the front to draw lots again, and then the major referees and deacons will announce your matchup combinations. Elder Sanyuan announced again.
All the 526 people who won chose their numbers in turn, and Lu Hao chose No. 324 this time.
"Stage 1, 11 vs. 319!"
"Stage 2, 123 vs. 425!"
"Stage 3, 234 vs. 78!"
All battles are also randomized.
Lu Hao's opponent in the second round was very weak, only the True Qi Realm Xiaocheng was at the peak of cultivation, and his swordsmanship was not very good, so he was easily defeated.
In the second round of the game, Lu Hao didn't pay much attention to it, and by the time it was over, it was almost time for the sun to set, so the third round of the game could only be played until the next day.
It's night.
"Liang Bo, accompany me to practice basic swordsmanship. Lu Hao said to Liang Bo.
"Good. Liang Bo was also interested, practicing swords with Lu Hao, and he found that his progress was also huge.
The two fought against each other in the small courtyard to practice swords.
After a day of watching the battle and fighting in the Blue Mountains a few days ago, Lu Hao's comprehension of swordsmanship seems to have reached another level, and he is one step closer to the realm of the unity of man and sword, so he can't wait to practice swords.
Although Lu Hao once reached the realm of a swordsmanship grandmaster and comprehended a trace of sword momentum, after coming back in this life, he still has to go through the road he has traveled before, but now he has a deeper feeling for swords, and he is more touched, which is relatively simple compared to breaking through the swordsmanship grandmaster.
This night, the two of them practiced for two hours, although Lu Hao's basic swordsmanship was still at the advanced level, he felt that he had made great progress, and it was only a matter of time before he stepped into the realm of human and sword integration.
On the second day, the third round officially began.
As before, the winning 263 people draw new numbers, but there is one lucky winner, and the winner of the 263 number can get a bye and go directly to the fourth round.
Lu Hao's luck was obviously average, he failed to draw No. 263, he drew No. 145.
With the announcement of the major referees and deacons, the 20-seat competition platform immediately set off a wonderful battle.
"Look, that's Xiao Longyun, the number one dark horse in this year's Outer Sect Disciple Competition, it is said that he has only been in the Outer Gate for less than a year, and he can defeat Li Yuanyang, who has a perfect True Qi Realm, what a combat genius!"
"Cut, don't you know, this Xiao Yunlong is only fourteen years old at a young age, but do you know that he is the grandson of a core elder of our Nanling Sword Sect, but he is relatively low-key, so most people don't know it. ”
"I see, since it is such a background, it is understandable to have such strength, do you think it is possible for him to compete in the top sixteen?"
"Top sixteen, with a core elder behind him, it is estimated that Xiao Longyun can at least enter the top ten!"
"That's amazing!"
As everyone discussed, Lu Hao also noticed the two people fighting on the No. 9 platform.
The person who was said by everyone was a young man who was one year younger than Lu Hao, with an immature face and short green hair, but his swordsmanship was not immature at all, and he was very exquisite.
Xiao Longyun's sword was like a tide, and he said proudly: "Senior brother, you are not my opponent, take my set of thunder swordsmanship!"
Xiao Longyun's own cultivation was only in the late stage of the True Qi Realm, and his opponent turned out to be a disciple of the True Qi Realm, but his swordsmanship was average, so his reputation was not obvious.
"Senior Brother Xiao, don't underestimate people, look at my Mianyu swordsmanship!" The senior brother who was in the perfect realm of true qi was aroused to anger, and he fought back with the same ferocity.
Xiao Longyun's sword speed was very fast, and the azure sword rays continued to cut through the void, as if one by one thunder exploded, rapidly attacking the senior brother who was in the perfect realm of true qi.
Although that senior brother's Mianyu swordsmanship was also practiced to the Dacheng realm, it was a pity that his soft swordsmanship was just overpowered by Xiao Longyun's Falling Thunder Swordsmanship, and he didn't have any advantage in either defense or attack.
In less than ten moves, Xiao Longyun defeated him, and he still seemed to be at ease, obviously retaining his strength.
"Xiao Haozi, this kid's swordsmanship seems to be very powerful, how does it compare to yours?" Liang Bo looked in his eyes and asked.
"His swordsmanship talent is good, but it's a pity that he doesn't pay attention to the basics, and pursues the skill, power and gorgeousness of sword moves too much. Lu Hao left a comment.
......
The rostrum is a place for a group of elders and peak master-level bigwigs to watch the game
"Master, our Nanling Sword Sect has another rare talent! Elder Xiao's grandson's swordsmanship talent is extremely high, and he may become the pillar of our Nanling Sword Sect in the future. On the rostrum, Elder Sanyuan whispered to the head of the sect, Tian Xingzi.
"Yes, Xiao Longyun's swordsmanship is remarkable, it is a good jade, it is carved well, and it can become atmospheric in the future. Tian Xingzi nodded.
"In this way, the outer disciples have two objects worthy of our close attention, one Xiao Longyun and one Lu Hao, but speaking of this Lu Hao, it really makes me a little incomprehensible, I carefully read his information, I was still an unknown boy more than two years ago, and the progress of the past half a year can be called a godspeed, it can be a demon-level genius, and can actually obtain the inheritance of the ancestor, this time I don't know why, I dare to challenge Hong Guangzong, although Hong Guangzong has not yet met the requirements of our special training, but his own talent is not bad, and he is favored by Elder Zhao, and he is ready to accept him as a disciple。 Elder Sanyuan said.
"I don't know what basis he has, he actually proposed a life-and-death battle to him, I think his few fights are relatively ordinary, and there is nothing brilliant, I don't know if he retains his strength, but if he fights with Hong Guangzong with such strength, he will definitely lose. ”
Tianxingzi pondered for a while before he said: " I don't think that the more Lu Hao looks at it, the more he can't see it, the basic swordsmanship that he has been using until now, not a single sword move, maybe he just regards these competitions as honing his swordsmanship, if he can see his mastery of swordsmanship and swordsmanship, I can see some clues, but for his training, I still say the same thing, wait for him to become an inner disciple, maybe this outer disciple competition is a good test, to see if he is worthy of our attention so much, and the cultivation of him in the future. ”
In the third round of the game, Lu Hao's opponent's strength was still average, there was no suspense, and he still passed.
Liang Bo also won the third round after a hard battle.
The fourth round began in the afternoon, with 66 winners from 132 players.
In the fourth round, Liang Bo met a powerful opponent and finally lost, but he was already very happy to be able to reach the fourth round, after all, his cultivation was only a small achievement in the True Qi Realm.
Lu Hao's opponent in this round was also a disciple of the True Qi Realm, but he still couldn't pose a danger to him, and he passed the fourth round easily.
"Xiao Haozi, I think your strength is strong enough to hit the top sixteen. Liang Bo said excitedly.
Lu Hao just smiled faintly and didn't say anything, he is not the kind of person who likes to put the target on his lips.
