Two days after Xia Fan's team entered Yanshou City, all the contestants of the Youth Martial Arts Competition finally arrived, and the Youth Martial Arts Competition finally began.

The Youth Martial Arts Competition is composed of county colleges and is used to screen students, which is divided into three stages: preliminary round, semi-final and final, of which the preliminary competition is held in the county seat of the top ten counties under Yansang County.

As the county seat of Yantou County, Yanshou City is naturally one of the places where the preliminary round of the Youth Martial Arts Competition is held, so before this competition, tens of thousands of foreign martial arts monks have gathered in Yanshou City.

These tens of thousands of people are not contestants, but martial arts monks in Yantou County, who came to Yanshou City to watch the Youth Martial Arts Competition, after all, this is a triennial event.

This time, there were nearly 10,000 young players in Yantou County participating in the Youth Martial Arts Competition, and the number of 1,000 people who passed the test in Xiajiabao was only 12/12 of them.

In addition, thousands of young powerhouses came from this Yanshou City, and their number was already comparable to that of hundreds of young players from hundreds of families such as Xia Jiabao.

After all, Yanshou City is not only the county seat of Yantou County, it is also one of the four major war fortresses that defend against the various fierce beasts in the Yandang Mountain Range to attack Yansang County in depth, and there will be no young strong people in such a war fortress.

However, even the young powerhouses in these two places together only account for two to three percent of all players.

The remaining seventy percent of the contestants come from small families all over the county, as well as casual families.

On the Southern Wilderness Continent, among the human races, there may be many strong people in medium and large families, but the main force that really fights against the beast tide is still the small families and scattered cultivators scattered all over the place.

No matter how strong the strong are, they can kill all kinds of high-level fierce beasts, but when you face an overwhelming beast tide, you will definitely be powerless, even if this beast tide is composed of a large number of low-level fierce beasts.

Only an army of warrior monks composed of the same number can resist the attack of the beast tide head-on with a strong defensive fortress.

And the main members of this huge army of martial cultivators were not those large and medium-sized families, but the small families scattered all over the Southern Wilderness Continent and countless scattered cultivators.

In order to effectively resist the attack of fierce beasts, these small families and the descendants of scattered cultivators have naturally become one of the main companion targets of the academy.

The venue for the preliminary round of the Youth Martial Arts Competition is located in the large competition field in the north of Yanshou City, which is the largest competition venue in Yantou County, which can accommodate 100,000 spectators and hold hundreds of competition competitions at the same time.

Even if they knew it beforehand, when many young players saw this competition venue, they couldn't help but be amazed by its huge architectural marvel.

Even Xia Fan, who has the memory of his previous life, was also amazed when he saw this building, this large-scale arena is a large-scale stadium in his previous life, and it is also a step worse, not to mention that this is just a county-town arena.

The arena was full of people, and 100,000 martial arts monks sat in the audience, enthusiastic, watching the battle of the young players in the arena.

There are hundreds of rings in the arena and competitions at the same time, but the competition of nearly 10,000 people, even if there are 100 rings, it will take 100 games to complete the first round, but there is no way, after all, it is a competition of tens of thousands of people.

The order of the battle between the players in the field is to choose the opponent according to the level of combat power, that is, the player whose combat power reaches the peak level 10 of the third layer of Qi refining against the player who has reached the fifth level of the third layer of combat power refining.

The players of the third layer and the ninth level of Qi refining fought against the players of the third and fourth levels of combat power refining qi, and so on, until the players of the sixth level of the third layer of qi refining played against the players of the third layer and the first layer of combat power Qi refining.

The winner advances to the next round, and the loser enters the lower bracket, where another knockout round is played, and the winner advances to the next round of the tournament with high power against low power. ...,

Such a graded competition may not be fair, but after two eliminations, the underdogs can be eliminated as quickly as possible, leaving only the really strong players.

Xia Fan's first round was in the third and seventh game, and his opponent was a thin boy whose combat power had reached the third level of Qi refining.

The thin young man's name is Zhuzhu Jian, and he is a child of the low-level peak family Zhuzhu in Yanshou City.

Don't look at the small body of this Zhuzhu Sword, but he can reach the third level of qi refining at the age of thirteen, no one is weak.

And in Xia Fan's observation, although the young man seemed to be thin, all the muscles in his body were extremely tight, revealing a powerful explosive force, and the attack speed was bound to be amazing.

Xia Fan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, he didn't expect that his first opponent was an agile flow powerhouse who hid his own strength, this Zhuzhu Sword was definitely more than a third-level combat power of Qi refining, in Xia Fan's divine sense, the Zhuzhu Sword had at least a strength similar to that of Wu Ziqi.

Although there are not many players who deliberately hide their strength, it is not nothing, there are always people who hide their strength for various reasons, and obviously this Zhuzhu Sword is one of them.

At the same time, Zhuzhu Jian was also very distressed, he had heard of the name Xia Fan, and the two major wastes of the Xia family had some reputation in Yantou County.

Will the combat power of the waste talent reach the eighth level of the third layer of qi refining?

But it is impossible for the dynamometer to go wrong, then Xia Fan's combat power to reach the eighth level of the third layer of qi refining is real.

"The third layer of qi refining is the eighth level, it is really a difficult guy to deal with, however, I heard that Xia Fan did not use his true qi during the test, and seeing that his qi refining realm still has not broken through, the combat power of the third layer of qi refining is only derived from the strength of the body" Zhuzhu Jian secretly analyzed:

"If that's the case, then, as long as I can give full play to my strengths, with my true strength, I may not be able to defeat this Xia Fan!"

"Zhuzhu Clan, Zhuzhu Sword, please advise!"

"Boom!"

Zhuzhu Jian pulled out the short sword at his waist, and the expression on his face changed instantly, turning into an assassin with a cold expression and a murderous aura.

The Zhuzhu clan was originally an assassin family, good at assassination, and had repeatedly assassinated leader-level fierce beasts in the beast tide, and was famous throughout Yansang County.

Seeing this, Xia Fan's eyes flashed, but his expression remained unchanged, he pulled out the giant axe behind him, and smiled indifferently: "Xia Fan of the Xia family, please!"

"Huh!" Zhuzhu Jian was speechless, and the short sword shook, turning into a sword shadow, and stabbed straight towards Xia Fan's heart.

"Ding!"

But it was Xia Fan's giant axe, and the foot-wide axe surface was already like a shield, blocking the short sword of the Zhuzhu Sword in front of him, and he could no longer enter the slightest.

For his own stabbing being blocked, Zhuzhu Sword had already expected it, if Xia Fan couldn't even block his sword, he would also be the owner of the third-layer eighth-level combat power of Qi refining.

With a slight touch of the short sword in the hand of Zhuzhu Jian, he borrowed the strength of Xia Fan's giant axe, and the thin figure turned around and had already come behind Xia Fan, and the short sword in his hand swung out, turning into a bolt of lightning and stabbing towards the heart of Xia Fan's back.

This is a backstab, is the most commonly used attack method of mortal assassins, but the power is extremely powerful, today the sword is used, but the power is dozens of times stronger than the mortal assassins, fully showing the ruthless, accurate, fast characteristics of this sword.

"Ding!"

Xia Fan advanced to the fourth level of qi refining, his divine sense had been completed, and within three meters of his body, everything could not escape Xia Fan's divine sense, although the backstab of the Zhuzhu sword was strange and fast, but it could not escape the induction of Xia Fan's divine sense.

Therefore, Xia Fan's style of Su Qin's back sword had already placed the giant axe in his hand behind his back, blocking the fierce backstab blow of Zhuzhu Sword.

The attack was blocked again, and the Zhuzhu Sword was not angry, and his body turned again, turning into a Dao figure and rotating around Xia Fan, and at the same time, the right hand holding the sword waved rapidly, and the Dao Dao Sword Shadow struck all the key points around Xia Fan's body.

"Ding!Ding!Ding!·"
