Chapter 57: The Newcomer Qualifying Tournament Begins
Time flies by like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, three months have passed, and it is the day when the rookie qualifying tournament begins!
At this time, the six thousand rookie disciples on Dengxian Peak came to the summit square of Dengxian Peak one after another, gathering in groups of three or five, loudly discussing the newcomer qualifying competition that was about to start.
The hundreds of newcomer disciples of the Great Zhou Empire Branch gathered in a corner of the square to loudly exchange their gains in the past three months and their expectations for the newcomer qualifying competition.
Ji Wushuang, Zhang Han, Wang Lei, and Song Yu quickly approached Yang Rui's side, and Song Yu looked at Yang Rui with anticipation on his face and said, "Brother Rui, are you sure to win the title of rookie king?"
"Nine out of ten!" Yang Rui replied with a confident look on his face.
"Yang Rui, have you been promoted to the Mana Realm?"
Seeing the confident look on Yang Rui's face, Zhang Hanjiao's beautiful cheeks moved slightly, and a look of shock flashed in her eyes.
"That's right, I've already been promoted to the Mana Realm!" Yang Rui nodded in response.
"Yang Rui, how many acupuncture points did you open up before you began to condense your divine soul and advance to the Mana Realm?" Ji Wushuang frowned slightly and said with concern.
The six thousand newcomer disciples who were able to enter the cultivation of Dengxian Peak were all at the peak of the Great Grandmaster's cultivation strength, and they could step into the Mana Realm at any time.
It's just that there is a big gap between the mana realm and the mana realm.
With one hundred and eight acupuncture points, condense the divine soul to advance to the mana realm, but it is just an ordinary mana realm monk, and the combat power is very weak, and it is easy to be killed by people who skip the level and kill them.
Nothing else is bad, just saying that Hong Wentao, who is second in the points ranking of the Immortal Martial Sect Headquarters, can easily kill the Mana Realm and even the Yin-Yang Mirror Monk with the peak cultivation strength of the Great Grandmaster.
And the mana realm that Hong Wentao was able to kill, and even the Yin-Yang Mirror monk, just opened up one hundred and eight acupuncture points, and he condensed the divine soul and promoted the monk guy.
If it was a monk who had opened up a hidden cave and condensed a high-quality divine soul, it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, for Hong Wentao to kill him!
Because the monk who condenses the high-quality divine soul, the condensed mana is extremely pure, and the power is very terrifying, which is not at all comparable to the condensed qi of the great grandmaster, it is completely qualitative difference, and it is not at all that the quantity can make up.
The more acupuncture points are opened, the higher the quality of the condensed divine soul, the faster the speed of refining the aura, the better the quality, and the condensed mana is also pure and powerful.
Because of this reason, many geniuses, the pride of the sky, will not easily condense their divine souls and be promoted to mana realm cultivators, but will open up as many acupuncture points as possible to condense better quality divine souls, with greater potential and stronger combat power.
It's just that the two hundred and fifty-two hidden acupoints after one hundred and eight acupuncture points are extremely difficult to open up, the energy consumed is too huge, it requires a huge amount of resources to invest, and a lot of time and energy is consumed.
In fact, most of the geniuses will open up the seventy-two hidden acupoints and condense the middle grade divine soul, a small number of heavens will open up one hundred and sixty-two hidden acupoints to condense the high-grade divine soul, a very few will open up one hundred and ninety-eight hidden acupoints to condense the best divine soul, and a few days will open up two hundred and fifty-two hidden acupoints to condense the perfect divine soul.
The further back you go, the more difficult it is to open up, the more energy you need, and the more time and energy you consume.
The last thirty-six hidden acupuncture points, each hidden acupuncture point consumes the energy consumed by the sum of the energy consumed by all the previous acupuncture points, and if you want to open them all up, the energy required is extremely huge, and most martial artists can't afford it.
Even if the young martial artist can withstand the energy consumption, he doesn't have so much time and energy to slowly open up the last thirty-six hidden acupoints.
Therefore, a martial artist who can open up three hundred and sixty hidden acupoints and condense a perfect divine soul is an extremely rare existence even in the Immortal Martial Sect, with an average of only one in a hundred years.
Ji Wushuang originally thought that Yang Rui had 125 million points, and he would exchange a large amount of resources, open up as many acupuncture points as possible, and condense high-grade divine souls, and even top-grade divine souls, and he was promoted to the mana realm, but he didn't expect that Yang Rui had already been promoted to the mana realm, which made Ji Wushuang a little disappointed.
After all, Ji Wushuang didn't think that Yang Rui would be able to condense a high-grade divine soul in just three months.
In Ji Wushuang's opinion, Yang Rui was able to condense a middle-grade divine soul within three months, which was good!
"I opened up three hundred and sixty acupuncture points and condensed the perfect divine soul before I was promoted to the mana realm!" Yang Rui replied with a smile on his face.
"This is impossible! How could you condense a perfect divine soul in just three months!" Ji Wushuang said with a shocked look on his face, his eyes were full of incredulity, and he couldn't believe Yang Rui's words at all.
"Nothing is impossible!" Yang Rui shrugged his shoulders and chuckled.
"Yang Rui, how many points do you have left?" said Wang Lei on the side, with a gleam in his eyes.
"Not a single one!" Yang Rui replied without hesitation.
"Brother Rui, you actually spent 125 million points in three months, this is too much of a loser!" Song Yu looked at Yang Rui with a speechless face.
Song Yu only spent hundreds of thousands of points in three months, but Yang Rui actually spent 120 million five hundred points, which shocked Song Yu and felt very speechless at the same time.
"The points were originally used to spend, can't they be rusted there!" Yang Rui said nonchalantly.
Seeing Yang Rui's uncaring appearance, Song Yu, Zhang Han, Wang Lei, and Ji Wushuang were all a little speechless, and secretly sighed that it was too easy for Yang Rui to get points, and he didn't know how to cherish them.
In the eyes of Song Yu, Zhang Han, Wang Lei, and Ji Wushuang, the points are very precious, and it is very difficult to obtain, so they cannot be wasted.
Yang Rui's practice of spending 125 million points in three months made them feel very speechless and regretful, thinking that Yang Rui was completely a loser and a waste of resources and opportunities.
While Yang Rui and the others were talking, an old man in a black robe and an old man in a white robe stepped on the void and slowly walked to the top of the summit square of Dengxian Peak.
The black-robed old man's name is Hong Tao, and the white-robed old man's name is Wang Yu, the two are elders of the Xianwumen headquarters, and they are responsible for presiding over this year's newcomer qualifying competition.
Looking at the six thousand rookie disciples in the square, the white-robed old man Wang Yu said to the black-robed old man Hong Tao on the side with a smile on his face: "Elder Hong, your son Hong Wenxuan is also a rookie disciple of this year, what do you think is his chance of winning the rookie king?"
The black-robed old man Hong Tao said with a smile on his face: "Elder Wang, the title of Rookie King is very important to other rookie disciples, and you can use the title of Rookie King to gain the attention and resources of the sect, but for my son Hong Wenxuan, it is not very important, it is just a dispensable title!"
After all, my son Hong Wenxuan has my support, and the resource tilt brought by the title of rookie king is not very important to him!
However, under my full cultivation, my son Hong Wenxuan is very good, and his combat power far exceeds that of martial artists of the same level, and the title of rookie king is none other than my son!"
As soon as Hong Tao's voice fell, Wang Yu chuckled and said, "Elder Hong, what do you think of Yang Rui, who is at the top of our Immortal Martial Sect points rankings, do you think Yang Rui has a chance to win the title of Rookie King?"
Hearing Wang Yu's words, Hong Tao shook his head and said, "Yang Rui, this disciple, I also know something! Yang Rui is just a person from the remote and small country of the Flame Kingdom, although he is a top genius of the Flame Kingdom, but among our Immortal Martial Sect, he can only be regarded as a genius with middle and lower qualifications.
The reason why Yang Rui was able to reach the top of the points ranking was entirely because his luck was too good, his true combat power, among the six thousand rookie disciples, could only be ranked in the middle at most, not to mention the rookie king, even if it was the top 100, he might not be able to enter!"
Seeing Hong Tao shaking his head, Wang Yu's eyes flashed with a gleam and said: "Elder Hong, since you are so optimistic about Yang Rui, why don't we gamble!" If Yang Rui enters the top 100 in the rookie qualifying competition, you will give me the ice crystal on your body, if Yang Rui does not enter the top 100 in the rookie qualifying competition, I will give you the fire crystal on my body, I don't know what you think, dare to bet with me!"
Hearing Wang Yu's words, Hong Tao shook his head and said, "Elder Wang, I, Hong Tao, like to step on strength the most, step by step, and don't like gambling, so although I am not optimistic about Yang Rui, I also don't bet with you!"
Seeing that Hong Tao shook his head and rejected his proposal, Wang Yu chuckled and said, "Elder Hong, it's really boring for you to be like this!"
After speaking, Wang Yu released a powerful aura that enveloped the audience, making the six thousand rookie disciples in the square quiet down one after another and set their eyes on Wang Yu's body.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Wang Yu's face turned straight and he said loudly: "I am Wang Yu, the elder of the Xianwumen Headquarters, and I am responsible for presiding over this year's newcomer qualifying competition.
The rules of the rookie qualifying tournament are very simple, that is, you, the six thousand rookie disciples, enter the Dao Weapon Void Ring Ring together, randomly assign opponents, and conduct a ring battle, each person who defeats one person will get one point, one person who draws has zero points, and one person who loses one point will be deducted one point.
Each of you has to fight 5,999 battles, and then you will be ranked according to the number of points! The first person will be awarded the title of Rookie King, and during the ten years of cultivation of the rookie disciple, you will enjoy the treatment of the true disciple, and the second to tenth places will enjoy the treatment of the core disciple!
The eleventh to the hundredth enjoy the treatment of elite disciples of the inner gate, the one hundred and one to the thousandth enjoy the treatment of ordinary disciples of the inner gate, and after the thousandth, there is no special treatment and they receive the treatment of normal newcomer disciples.
Now, I declare the 2,000th Rookie Qualifying Tournament officially begins!"
As soon as Wang Yu's voice fell, he waved his hand, and a silver ring flew out of his body, entered the air at a height of thousands of meters, and quickly enlarged, turning into a huge and incomparably huge void ring.
Immediately afterwards, the huge Void Ring automatically divided into three thousand spherical rings with a diameter of three thousand kilometers, and white light sprinkled down from the Void Ring, wrapping Yang Rui and the others and teleporting them into one spherical ring after another.
At the same time, above the major peaks of the Xianwumen Headquarters, a huge energy screen appeared, and the scene in the void ring clearly appeared on the energy screen, entering the field of vision of the disciples of the major peaks of the Xianwumen Headquarters.
