Chapter Eighty-Eight: Drawing Lots
Outside the Martial Arts Tower, Wu Weizong and the others waited for a long time, but they didn't see any signs of Luo Chen coming out.
There was not a trace of movement in the tower, and it stood there.
"Why hasn't he come out yet?, is he still breaking through?" said Zhuo Jianbing of the Thousand Hands Sect.
"In my opinion, most of them are already fierce and lucky!" Han Huanyun said rather unceremoniously.
Yu Ziqing glanced at him coldly and said, "What do you mean?"
Ju Shuyun shook the knife fan in his hand lightly, and said: "Brother Han's meaning couldn't be clearer, the more the martial arts tower goes to the back, the more dangerous it is, the first level of the second and third layers is to face the legendary characters in the same realm as themselves, if the chai officials are really as shown by the martial arts tower, breaking into the fifth layer, I am afraid that they will really encounter the threat of death, not to mention that now, the martial arts tower has a vision." ”
At this moment, Yu Ziqing and Wu Weizong's faces changed, especially Yu Ziqing was particularly worried, could it be that Luo Chen really had an accident in the Martial Arts Tower?
"Squeak!"
At this moment, the door of the Martial Arts Tower opened, and Luo Chen walked out of the Martial Arts Tower, not only did he not die, but he only had a slight injury on his body, and there was no major problem.
Seeing Luo Chen come out, Yu Ziqing's face was suddenly full of smiles, the expressions of the other martial artists were different, Han Huanyun and Ju Shuyun were slightly embarrassed, because they said Luo Chen's words, they didn't dare to look at Luo Chen's gaze.
Qi Guan Wenlian's eyes narrowed, and after watching Luo Chen come out, the hand that touched the scabbard was wrapped around his chest and kept tapping his arm.
The two girls, Lian Mengyu and Zhong Lingxiu, were also very surprised, especially Zhong Lingxiu, her eyes flashed, although she was shocked, her face was still peaceful and she maintained her usual calm.
Wu Weizong had a smile on his face and said, "How are you?"
Luo Chen thought for a moment and replied, "The fifth layer, the second level." ”
"It's okay! There is something wrong with the Martial Arts Tower, and the prime minister is still very worried about your safety... Wait, what did you just say?"
Wu Weizong's whole person froze for a moment, as if he had heard some earth-shattering news, and the scalp on his head was numb.
Yu Qichen beside him was also shocked.
You must know that in the history of the Lingwu Monarchy, only a few people broke through to the second level of the fifth layer in the Martial Arts Tower, and besides, most of them were able to pass the second level for the second time or even the third time.
And Luo Chen, it was the first time he entered the Martial Arts Tower, and he achieved such good results.
Han Huanyun's face changed slightly, and said: "Chai Guanren, don't lie, if you lie in front of the military minister, you know what the consequences are." ”
Luo Chen said: "Why, it's just the second level of the fifth layer, and it's not that the martial arts tower has been cleared, which is also worth your fuss?"
When the others heard Luo Chen's words, their faces showed unnatural looks, especially Han Huanyun's face was embarrassed, this Luo Chen actually said that he had passed the second level of the fifth layer so lightly, which made him embarrassed.
Is this showing off?
"Okay, I believe in Chai Guanren's words, today's test ranking will be announced in detail later. ”
Wu Weizong glanced at Luo Chen, and then left with Yu Qichen.
There is only one crowd left, waiting for the results of the final test rankings and the draw for the final knockout round.
"The first place in today's martial arts tower test is Chai Guanren!"
"Second place, Zhong Lingxiu!"
"Third place, Qi Guan Wenlian!"
"Fourth place, Yu Ziqing!"
“。。。。。。 ”
Soon, the official in charge of sorting out the rankings read out the results aloud.
Although the thirty-two warriors already knew it, they were still embarrassed when they heard the result.
Many martial artists of the Great Perfection are not weak in strength, but they have been eliminated one after another.
And some martial artists who were not optimistic about themselves were promoted instead.
At this point, the top 16 rankings are all out.
They are the scattered cultivation of firewood officials, Zhong Lingxiu and Wei Fenming who adhere to the rules, the scattered cultivation of Qiguan Wenlian, the holy poison peak Yu Ziqing, the sixth prince Chu Zibu, the witch faction He Xuanke, the wind and rain faction of Lianmengyu, Shaoyang Sect Han Hengyun, the self-propelled sect Li Cheng, Zhang Zidan, the iron claw gate Han Yuanbo, the knife gate Zeng Yanqing, and two scattered repair room concessions and Feng Xingyi.
Fang Chengrang and Feng Xingyi, two eighteen-year-old and nineteen-year-old boys, are two indefinite numbers other than Qiguan Wenzhuan and Luo Chen, and they are also martial artists of the Great Perfection.
"Is the casual cultivation so powerful now? It's really terrifying, the times have changed!"
The official who read out the ranking muttered, glanced at the sixteen martial artists who had advanced in a circle, and said loudly: "You are all the sixteen people with the strongest comprehensive strength in this year-end assessment, the ranking of the martial arts tower test is not important, the next knockout match is very important, only the strongest martial arts strength can have the last laugh!"
"Now, you will come up and draw lots in order of ranking, and the people who draw the number one and the sixteenth are the players who will fight in the first match in the knockout round!"
"Number Six. ”
Luo Chen was the first to walk to the lottery table, took out a note, read it silently, and handed it to the official.
The note flew away from the officer's hand and floated in the air, clearly displaying the numbers on it to the crowd.
Zhong Lingxiu was the second to take the stage and drew the number one.
Everyone was slightly surprised, but they didn't expect that in the opening game, the strongest Zhong Lingxiu would appear.
The next warriors all hope that they will not draw the sixteenth, because whoever draws it will have to compete with Zhong Lingxiu, and the results of the competition will be clear at a glance, and they will definitely lose.
"Buddha bless! Buddha bless!"
Han Huanyun whispered this, put his hand into the lottery box, took out a note, and slowly opened it.
With the number revealed by the note, he laughed, "Great, I'm number thirteen!"
As long as Zhong Lingxiu is not right, other martial artists, even the sixth prince, he is not worthy.
On the spiritual list, the sixth prince is fifty-four, and he is only sixty-sixth, but he doesn't think that he is worse than the sixth prince, and in the same early stage of the Great Perfection, he has to practice for one more year than the sixth prince.
Practicing in the Reiki Realm for one more year can be described as a world of difference.
"I'm in Shaoyang Sect, and I'm only under Lu Shaohuan. ”
Feng Xingyi came to the stage to draw lots, he opened the note, glanced at Luo Chen silently, and handed the note to the official.
When the note floated, Luo Chen knew why Feng Xingyi was looking at him.
"Nine!"
Luo Chen's opponent is Feng Xingyi.
The draw ended quickly, and the seaside student of the Liewu Gate did not look good, because he drew the sixteenth and became Zhong Lingxiu's opponent.
Han Huanyun walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Hai, mourning! With your strength, if you don't go to Zhong Lingxiu, no one else should be your opponent." ”
Haibiansheng shook off his hand and said, "Han Huanyun, you don't say cool words, I have entered the loser's group, and I can still be killed." ”
Han Huanyun said with a smile: "The competition in the loser group is very fierce, I just don't know if Brother Hai's physical strength can persevere." ”
The rules of the knockout round are very cruel.
First of all, the sixteen warriors fought against each other eight against each other according to the results of the draw, and then the eight defeated warriors fought again with each other, and the eight warriors were divided into two groups, and the two warriors with the most wins in each group entered the loser's group.
Then continue to determine the two warriors with the most wins, and qualify against the top four in the upper bracket to determine the top three.
The loser needs to play more battles, so the first battle is especially important.
The true qi in the martial artist's dantian is limited, and if you fight for a long time, your strength will definitely be greatly reduced.
It will be very difficult for Haibiansheng to face Han Huanyun in his heyday, if his strength declines, Han Huanyun is equivalent to one less opponent, so he is naturally very happy.
When leaving the Martial Arts Tower, Yu Ziqing quietly followed Luo Chen again and walked side by side with him.
"Miss Yu, the eighth brother just died, you are messing around with this person, this person is suspected of killing the eighth brother, aren't you afraid of the queen mother's coldness?"
The sixth prince, Chu Zibu, stood in front of them, and a group of royal family members surrounded them, showing a fierce face.
Yu Ziqing was displeased, and said: "Concubine Chen and my father are brother and sister, and I have never had anything to do with the eighth prince. Moreover, the king of the county also personally cleared the suspicion of Chai Gongzi, and the sixth prince should not slander people's innocence when he speaks. ”
Chu Zibu's eyes were cold, and he said, "You want to be the enemy of this prince for such a waste?"
Yu Ziqing just wanted to speak, but was blocked by Luo Chen's hand.
Luo Chen frowned and said, "Sixth Prince, are people in your royal clan all one bite and one waste?" I originally thought that there was only one eighth prince, but I never thought that His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince was also uneducated. ”
"Bold!What is your identity, dare Your Highness to speak like this?!"
The sixth prince's family member was bright in his hands, and he took a few steps to surround Luo Chen tighter, and he was about to make a move.
"Your Highness Six!"
The family members looked towards the sound and looked at the corner of the palace, and when they saw that person, they showed a frightened expression on their faces, and they each took a few steps backwards behind Chu Zibu.
Chu Zibu's face also showed a hint of jealousy and solemnity, and said, "Yu Qichen, you also want to get involved in the affairs of this prince?"
Yu Qichen stood on a palace building at the foot of the Martial Arts Tower, the ghost martial arts mask was particularly eerie under the light of a beam of sunlight. He was dressed in black armor, and his whole body exuded a terrifying murderous aura.
Chu Zibu looked at Yu Qichen's murderous gaze, and unconsciously felt fear in his heart, but he forcibly suppressed his mood, and his body did not move at all, but meticulous people could find that he was trembling slightly.
Not to mention the royal family behind him, they each took a few steps back, looking at Yu Qichen with deep jealousy.
"What a murderous aura!"
Yu Ziqing and Luo Chen looked at Yu Qichen, and made an evaluation in their hearts at the same time.
Yu Qichen said: "Sixth prince, give me a face, don't embarrass the officials." If you have any grievances, please stay on the martial arts platform in two days. ”
Chu Zibu snorted coldly and said, "Is this what you mean or what Wu Xiang means?"
"Chai Guanren is now the top 16 in the year-end assessment, protected by the royal family, and the county king attaches great importance to Chai Guanren. ”
"You said that the father is the king?"
Chu Zibu's face was cloudy, and he glared at Luo Chen fiercely, and said, "You wait! Even if it is your father, you don't want to have a good life!"
Luo Chen's eyes were also cold, but he didn't expect that this Chu Zibu was also the same as his younger brother Chu Zishu, a person who couldn't think with a brain, and said: "If the sixth prince has any tricks, he will follow next." ”
Chu Zibu flicked his sleeves, looked at Yu Qichen, who was as immobile as a mountain above, and strode away with his family.
