Early the next morning, Mo Ming was woken up from the practice by the sloppy jumping and jumping in the big tent, this guy participated in a large-scale activity of hundreds of tribes for the first time, and his heart was excited, coupled with the end of the ranking battle, it was rare to be able to relax, so this guy basically didn't have a good rest all night, early in the morning, the genius was just dawning, and he couldn't wait to rush out of the big tent to grab a good position and watch the battle between the top clans on the grassland.

And when the group arrived at the slaughterhouse, it was already a matter of satisfaction, and many tribes came early to seize the position relatively close, most of them came to join in the fun, and some wanted to observe the fighting methods of the big tribes and steal the art of stealing from the teacher.

The participants in the battle for the sword bearer are the young and strong people of each tribe, because the older elders are not allowed to participate, it will be considered disrespectful to the gods, and theoretically every tribe, regardless of the ranking, can participate, but in fact, the small tribe is just a number of participants, and the position of the final knife bearer has always been controlled by the three giants, so many years, it has always been alternating between the three, and others have no chance to get their hands on it at all, and over time, most tribes simply no longer send people to participate, only a few powerful tribes are still trying。

"This time, there are a total of eight tribes participating in the battle for the knife holder, in addition to the three super tribes of the Hong tribe, the hermit and the Hanfeng tribe, there are also several top tribes such as the Yun tribe, it is said that these big clans have emerged a group of young and strong people, and their strength is better than before, so they will participate in this sword holder competition. Ma Long was explaining to Mo Ming the situation of the battle between the knife wielders.

"But this time, the biggest hit among the various tribes is still the disciples of the three super tribes, Hong Tiancheng of the Hong Clan, Mu Shaofeng of the Hanfeng Tribe, and Hidden Jade of the Hermit Tribe, although there are many people among the other five tribes who participate, but the only ones who can compete with these three people are Yun Xiao of the Yun tribe and Mu Lin of the Muya tribe, another top tribe. The war elder also explained on the side, and almost all tribes had heard of these things.

"Hong Tiancheng, Mu Shaofeng!" Mo Ming's eyes condensed slightly, but he muttered secretly in his heart, "Ying Wushuang is sandwiched between these two people." What is the purpose?"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

There was a sudden burst of noise in the crowd, and the crowd automatically gave way to a way, Mo Ming raised his eyes and saw a group of people walking from the center of the Hong Clan station to the slaughterhouse, walking in front of three middle-aged men, in the middle was a burly man, with a square face and thick eyebrows, and a majestic face, and walking on the left was a middle-aged man who was always smiling. Squinting. An amiable and good old man. Walking to the right was a middle-aged man wrapped in a black cloak, with sharp facial features and a cold expression, different from the other two who were constantly talking along the way. The man remained silent the entire time, only occasionally nodding and shaking his head in response to the other two.

"Hmph, the images of these three people are really obvious, and their origins can be recognized at a glance. Mo Ming smiled dumbly, thinking secretly in his heart, and sure enough, Ma Long's introduction confirmed what he thought in his heart, it was Hong Huang, the leader of the Hong tribe, who walked in the middle. Walking on his left was Muhan, the leader of the Hanfeng tribe, and the man in black who didn't say a word on the right was Yin, the leader of the hermit tribe.

"Hidden?" Mo Ming raised his eyebrows and asked strangely.

Ma Long shrugged helplessly and explained: "The hermit tribe is very hidden, not only because of their strength. Even the full name of its leader is unknown, and the outside world only calls him hidden. ”

Mo Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the leader of the hidden clan, he always felt that there was something strange about this person.

"The five people who followed closely behind these three people were the other five big tribes that participated in the battle for the sword wielder, and the one who walked on the far left was the leader of the Yun tribe, and next to the leader of the Yun tribe was the leader of the Muya tribe. Ma Long's eyes moved, crossed the three people in front of him, fell on the people behind, and continued to explain to Mo Ming, but the five people were followed by a group of young people, and the one who walked in the front was Hong Tiancheng and Mu Shaofeng, who had clashed before, and the relationship between the two seemed to have not eased in any way, and it seemed to be more serious.

And there was a young man in the same row as them, dressed like the leader of the hidden clan, and even his expression was exactly the same, but occasionally when he looked up, he would expose the essence that flashed in his eyes, Mo Ming noticed that when this person looked at Hong Tiancheng and Mu Shaofeng, his eyes would inadvertently reveal a strange look.

"This person?" Mo Ming's expression moved, but he was secretly puzzled in his heart, he always had a feeling in his heart, this pair of hidden father and son seemed a little strange.

"Hmm, is it Ying Wushuang?" continued to look, but Mo Ming's expression moved, behind these young people, Mo Ming actually saw Ying Wushuang's figure, "This woman was also mixed into the team of knife wielders. ”

Ying Wushuang lowered his head, followed by the person in front of him, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Huh?" Ying Wushuang suddenly felt as if she was being watched by a pair of gazes, and more importantly, this gaze actually made her feel a familiar feeling in her heart, and she couldn't help but raise her head and look towards the source of the gaze, and at this moment, Mo Ming withdrew his gaze.

"It's him!" However, Ying Wushuang saw Mo Ming in the crowd at a glance, although at this time his clothes had already changed into the animal skin costume of the Qi clan.

Hong Huang and the others walked to the center of the slaughterhouse, and after standing still, Hong Huang and Mu Han stopped talking, their faces were straight, their eyes turned, and they glanced at the people below, and the loud voice suddenly spread.

"Ladies and gentlemen, because of the gift of the gods, our tribes have been able to settle here and stay away from the strife of the outside world, and we must thank the gods for their mercy every year, so every year on this day, we gather here to thank the gods with our most sincere hearts. The sound of the desolation was loud and majestic, echoing in the sky above the slaughterhouse, and a pious look appeared on the faces of every native, and Mo Ming sighed in his heart, the supremacy of the gods had long been ingrained in the hearts of these people, and it was difficult to shake.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the sacrifice of the gods is the most solemn thing in our great Mo Yuan, and the rules set by the gods must be followed by each of us, and we must not disobey them, and the sword bearer is a sacred title, and you want to obtain this glorious title. You must have a ...... in your heart" What followed was a large series of righteous and pious speeches, and Mo Ming, who listened directly, was sleepy, but on the contrary, these natives were excited one by one, and even Ma Long nodded again and again, although he had just scolded the flood before.

"Now I announce the rules for the sword-wielding contest," Hong Huang's speech was finally finished, and just before Mo Ming was about to fall asleep, he said the point of the day, "the sword-wielder contested." As long as it is a young and strong person from all tribes, it can participate. The way of competition is to eliminate the system. Only the strongest can hold the sword, so it must stand the test, and the contest is held in three rings, which can be challenged freely. Alright, I declare that the battle for the Blade Bearer now begins. ”

"What is the three-arena style?" asked the old man for advice suspiciously, and just as he was speaking, a disciple of a top clan walked out, standing in the middle of the slaughterhouse, looking around at the other young powerhouses, with satisfaction in his eyes as a challenge.

"The so-called three-game ring style means that no matter who is in this ring, as long as they get into this ring. You need to win three games in a row to advance to the next game. Zhan Lao explained in a low voice.

"Oh," Ma Sloppy nodded as if he didn't understand, and said to himself: "Oh, you can only advance to the next round by winning three games, so wouldn't you have to eliminate more than half of them in the first round." ”

Hear the words. Zhan Lao shook his head and said with a smile: "No, it's not more than half, but there is not much left." ”

"How is it possible, if you win three games in a row, you will only have to eliminate three opponents, and then you will have a quarter of the people left in the end. Sloppy argued suspiciously.

The old man grinned and explained: "Hmph, if that's the case, wouldn't it be a lot less fun? The so-called strongest must be the strongest, which means not just three wins, but the focus is on the winning streak, that is to say, once you stand in this ring, then you must accept the wheel battle of three people, there is no halftime, and you must win all three games to pass. ”

"Uh!" Ma Hu was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "After the big battle, one person is tired, where can I have the energy to deal with the second or even the third person?"

"That's why it is said that only the strongest can serve as the sword wielder. Zhan Lao said with a smile.

Mo Ming's eyes condensed slightly, and he suddenly said: "In this way, this actually contains a lot of luck in it, just now the leader of the Hong clan said that the challenge is free, that is to say, everyone can come to the stage at any time to challenge, there is a lot of volatility in this, if someone has won two games in a row, and in the third game, a super strong opponent suddenly comes up, and even if it is an opponent of equal strength, how can he continue to win after two consecutive battles?"

"Hmph, so he's not the strongest, it's normal to be eliminated, even if he barely passes, he will be defeated in the end, and the requirements for the knife bearer are to be overwhelming. Malone also chimed in.

"If that's the case, then as long as you don't make a move until the end, wouldn't it be better, that is, you can preserve your strength, and you can do it in one step, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone. "I thought about it for a long time, and finally suddenly came up with a way to win.

Hearing this, Ma Long and Zhan Lao both looked at him with speechless expressions, and Zhan Lao shook his head and sighed: "Xiaohu, can't you just use your brains? Do you think that even you can think of things must be necessary, and those big leaders can't think of them?"

Ma Huo's face suddenly turned red, he touched his head awkwardly, and smirked embarrassedly.

"No one can use this method of stealing the opportunity to survive to the end, if you don't enter the second round first, you are not qualified to compete for the final battle, even if the last person is eliminated, you can't get the number of people, there is also a way to deal with it, if you want to get the honor of the knife bearer, the only way is strength, only overwhelming strength can get the final victory. Malone explained in a deep voice.

And just as everyone was talking, the first battle was over, and it was the first person to win the game, at this time he was scanning the audience with a smug face, but Mo Ming looked at him, but it was already the end of the strong crossbow, and the strength of the previous challenge opponent was not much to lose, and the discerning people knew that he must have been a strong man after a hard battle, and now as long as he goes up to a person, as long as the strength is not too bad, he can easily win, so it is equivalent to easily winning the first victory.

"Hmph, you are less proud, I have long seen you unpleasant. Suddenly, a person rushed out, as if he had a deep hatred for this person, and said angrily.

"This guy is too cheap, and he actually let him take the lead. He took a slow step and scolded in a low voice.

The competition is constantly going on, but the people on the field are constantly rotating, and the three ring-style competitions seem simple. But it is difficult to achieve, so far, no less than a dozen people have been eliminated, but no one has been able to win three games in a row and enter the next round of competition.

"Tut-tut, this is really difficult, if no one can meet the requirements in the end, can't no one enter the next round?"

Zhan Lao glanced at him and explained, "This situation is simply impossible to happen. Although only the eight tribes participated in the war. But you look at the number of people. Each clan will have at least five strong men, and these people are not only there to increase their chances of winning the final victory, but more importantly, they can also be used as outcasts at critical times. Helping your fellow citizens. ”

"And don't you notice? Although there are a lot of people on the field now, almost all of them are inconsequential guys, and none of the really strong people have shown up, but as the competition progresses, these people should also have some movement. Ma Long's eyes were slightly condensed, and he said in a deep voice.

As Ma Long said, although each of the eight clans participating in the competition has several children participating, there are not many of them combined, only in the number of fifty. And now it has eliminated more than a dozen people, if these people don't make a move, the number of people is getting smaller and smaller, then the probability of encountering strong opponents will be greater and greater, and no one will want to meet other strong people in the first round of the elimination battle.

"Yunxiao is on. ”

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd. Yun Xiao, one of the five strongest contenders for the knife wielder, finally couldn't help but be the first to play.

Mo Ming's eyes froze, and he looked at Yun Xiao carefully, although this person looked delicate, but there was a lot of anger between his eyebrows, he didn't smile, and looked indifferently at the opponent who was standing opposite him with a blue face.

"Let's do it!" Yun Xiao said coldly.

"I threw in the towel. The opponent's face changed drastically, and then he raised his hand weakly and surrendered, Yunxiao's prestige was outside, and at this time it was even more prosperous, how could he be his opponent when he was already exhausted, so it was better to simply admit defeat, so as not to bring humiliation on himself.

After Yunxiao came on the field, the originally lively battle was cold for the first time, and no one came on the field to challenge.

"Hmph, this situation will not last long, in fact, the major tribes have a tacit understanding with each other, in the first round of the elimination battle, they will try to avoid these strong competitors encountering each other, but they will not watch this kind of cold situation appear, and this is also one of the reasons why so many inconsequential people participate in the war. Malone explained.

Before Ma Long's words fell, one person suddenly came out of the crowd and stood opposite Yun Xiao, but it was a young strong man of another clan, and his strength was obviously much worse than Yun Xiao, Mo Ming noticed that this person's face was not very good, and it was obviously not his will to play at this time.

"Cannon fodder?" Mo Ming's eyes moved, and he thought secretly in his heart.

The so-called fame is not a vanity, Yunxiao is famous, but the strength is really strong, although the people who challenge are just cannon fodder arranged by other clans, but they can participate in the battle is by no means a general, anyone who comes out can win the sloppy, and although these people are cannon fodder, but when they fight, they are also full of strength, the gods sacrifice is solemn and solemn, and how can they be allowed to deliberately release water, fooling things, if they do not do their best, it is disrespectful to the gods, and they will be punished by the gods.

However, even if these people did their best, they couldn't stop Yun Xiao's progress at all, and Yun Xiao even solved the opponent effortlessly and was the first to enter the next round of competition.

Following Yunxiao's pass, the other powerhouses finally couldn't sit still, and they shot one after another, and whenever a strong man made a move, other tribes would send people to the field as cannon fodder to help them pass the test, and this is no secret for a long time, on the one hand, this is to avoid encountering strong and strong encounters, but the two sides are not in the same state, and on the other hand, it is also to test their strength, if even the ordinary three people can't be defeated, then there is no need to continue.

The first round of the battle was over soon, Hong Tiancheng and the other five strongest all successfully advanced to the next round, and at the same time there were three young powerhouses from the other three clans, and the next battle was to use the elimination system of two and two battles, until the last person was decided.

The slaughterhouse is divided into four areas, each of which is judged by the strong men sent by the Hong tribe, and eight people will fight at the same time, and four people will be decided, without rest in between, and continue the second battle to determine the two, and then immediately carry out the final battle, which means that the final winner must also win three consecutive victories to get the title of the knife bearer.

"However, unlike the first round, as long as you can solve the opponent quickly, you can buy some rest time when the second person is free, and once the second person decides the winner, then the second match will be played immediately. Zhan Lao explained the detailed rules of the competition for Ma Hu and Mo Ming.

"In this way, it is more beneficial for the first and third and fifth and seventh odd-numbered opponents, and they can also get some time to recover. Mo Ming said with a smile.

"That's right, this is also where these people should pay attention to themselves, the competition is not only about their own cultivation, but also about their brains, to calculate the right time to end their battles, and you see that there is no obstacle between the four battlefields, just to facilitate these people to observe the situation of the other people while fighting. Malone nodded, pointing to several battlefields and explained.
