Seeing that Xiao Ran didn't have much reaction, Ou Yezi and the others didn't say anything anymore.

Although he knew that Xiao Ran's cultivation had also reached the Sword Emperor realm.

But a competition between the early stage Sword Emperor and the middle stage, or even the late stage Sword Emperor, they are not optimistic at all.

Although they said the top twenty, in their impression, this should be the biggest estimate Xiao Ran made, right?

If they knew that this was just Xiao Ran's casual perfunctory, I don't know how they would feel?

After talking about some other things again, they went back to their rooms.

On this day, Xiao Ran didn't continue to cultivate, tonight, as long as he slept well, as for the competition, tomorrow is just a preliminary round, Xiao Ran didn't care about it at all.

Time, passing slowly.

One night passed so quickly.

On the vertical day, the sun did not rise in the entire Wolong City, and the entire Wolong City was completely boiling.

Today is destined to be the most lively day in the entire Wolong City, and it is also the most lively day in the entire swordsman union.

Because from today onwards, for three consecutive days, the entire swordsman union will be completely open to the outside world, and even ordinary people can enter it unconditionally.

Therefore, as soon as it was dawn today, countless people on the street rose up and poured into the swordsman's guild, just to enter it in advance and grab a powerful position.

Xiao Ran also got up relatively early today, took out an ordinary long sword in the courtyard and waved it slowly, repeating the simplest swordsmanship over and over again.

Despite this, every time, Xiao Ran was very serious and did not have the slightest idea of hastily doing things.

It wasn't until the early morning that Xiao Ran stopped practicing swordsmanship, and when he returned to his room to freshen up, he found that Ou Yezi and the others had already come out.

"Let's go, it's still early. Let's go have some breakfast first!" Changzhi smiled.

"Yes. Naturally, the other two would not have any opinions.

The three of them went out to eat breakfast slowly before walking towards the other side of the swordsman union.

The Swordsman Guild covers an area of more than ten miles, of which only half is used for buildings and offices, and the rest, most of the halls where the tasks are issued still have a place for competitions.

And the venue used for today's trial is the location within the Swordsman Guild.

The position where Xiao Ran and the others walked was from within the Swordsman Guild, while those others entered the venue directly from other positions, so Xiao Ran and the others did not see the scene of the crowd.

About the time of a stick of incense. Xiao Ran and the others finally heard the boiling life, in the past ten miles, although everyone has increased their speed very quickly, but they still walked for a stick of incense, there is no way, they can't fly directly, right? That would be a little too presumptuous.

Stepping out of the last vermilion lacquer gate, Xiao Ran and the others were suddenly shocked by the sea of people in front of them.

At a glance, there are countless miles of dense crowds, and there is nothing else to be seen. There was not even a trace of the competition ring.

Fortunately, when it was originally designed, the rings were not clustered together, but divided into twenty rings, so the crowd would be a little sparse. Otherwise, there will be more.

After Xiao Ran and the others followed Ou Yezi and the others in the outermost circle, they finally found a special passage to enter the venue.

Under the gaze of countless people, Xiao Ran and the others walked in.

Just got into it. Xiao Ran and the others found that there were a group of more than a dozen people in front of them.

The person in front glanced back at Xiao Ran and the others, and did not continue to speak, while Xiao Ran and the others. didn't care about them, walked over directly, and behind Xiao Ran and the others, someone also came in.

And these people are more or less hostile to Xiao Ran.

At first, Xiao Ran thought that something was wrong with him, but later he realized that any of these people could be opponents, and it was normal to be hostile, so he stopped thinking about those things.

As the flow of people entered the field, it was immediately seen that there was a position close to a mile around the field.

Those who are onlookers can only watch from outside this range.

And inside, a large number of seats are set up over there, and there are already quite a few people sitting in it to rest.

After Xiao Ran and the others followed Ou Yezi and the two in, they immediately became the focus of everyone, without him, just because the number of people who came was really pitiful.

"Who are they? Why are there only three? Isn't this a bit exaggerated? The others are at least a dozen, right? Do they know that they don't have a chance, so they are too lazy to bring too many people?" A person on the periphery saw Xiao Ran and the others walk in, and muttered quietly.

As soon as this sentence came out, it immediately attracted more onlookers, almost like a wave, and everyone looked towards Xiao Ran and them.

For these, Xiao Ran and the others directly ignored them.

Looking around, Xiao Ran and the others came to an empty place and sat down, and then Xiao Ran closed his eyes and stopped looking at them.

The competition is decided by drawing lots, not by designating opponents, after everyone is present, the competition is decided, and those who win will draw lots again.

After a few games like this, you can completely eliminate some of the ones with poor strength, and Xiao Ran also nodded slightly about this rule.

Time, unconsciously, the admission of defeat in the field has gradually increased, a cursory glance, there are more than a thousand people, and the people watching from the outside of the field are countless, some people, even run to some tree tops to watch the situation here.

Fortunately, it is daytime, and the people who practice martial arts have excellent eyesight, so they can see clearly from such a distance.

boom

Knock knock

Three melodious bells suddenly came from nowhere.

The sound of the bell rang for a long time, just one time, Xiao Ran knew that the person who rang the bell cultivated to the realm of the Sword Emperor who would never rain, because everyone present could hear it.

This kind of control is also rare.

"The president is here, Xiao Ran, pay attention!" Ou Yezi commanded in a low voice, outside, he would still call Xiao Ran by his name, not for the sake of face, but to avoid trouble.

Almost at the same time as Ou Yezi's words fell, several figures suddenly appeared in mid-air at a certain position of the Swordsman Guild, and then came step by step.

"There are actually five Sword Sects, one Intermediate Sword Sect, and three Sword Emperor Peaks!" Xiao Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the sky in the distance, and with just a glance, he could see the cultivation of these people.

I don't know if it's a deliberate display, or what, the ten figures in the sky are all walking towards this side step by step in mid-air.

Although it seemed slow, they were steady with each step, as if there were stairs in the sky, and they stepped on those stairs to walk down.

"The cultivation of the elder adult, I don't know how far it has come now, I actually managed to step into the air, it's really amazing, I'm afraid I have broken through to the early stage of the Sword Sect, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately rolled his eyes, and then thought about it and understood, these people must have deliberately hidden their cultivation under the Sword Emperor, after all, not everyone has his perverted spiritual power to observe others thoroughly.

When Xiao Ran was thinking about this, those people in the sky had already come to the sky above everyone, and then they stepped directly to a position due south. There, there were dozens of seats.

After the group of people came to the sky, they came directly to the position of the chair, but the old man who took the lead was suspended in mid-air and did not go down.

"That person is the president of the headquarters of the Swordsman Guild, and no one knows what level of cultivation he has reached. Ou Yezi whispered to Xiao Ran on the side.

Xiao Ran looked towards the sky.

It was an old man with a white beard, and the old man looked about fifty or sixty years old, but the old man's skin was ruddy, and if it weren't for the silver hair, he would look like a middle-aged man.

The old man's figure was not very thin, his eyes looked around attentively, and then he nodded with satisfaction, his eyes wandered around the dozens of sword emperors, and finally stopped at a young man in a black robe.

The young man held a silver sword in his hand, and the hilt of the sword seemed to be the shape of some kind of demon beast.

The young man seemed to be aware of this, and glanced up at the old man before withdrawing his gaze.

Xiao Ran also noticed this person, this person was the genius Lin Chen that Ou Yezi said to him, only nineteen years old, he had already reached the peak of the Sword Emperor, and he had stepped into the realm of the Sword Sect with half a foot, and was known as the most powerful genius in the entire Wolong Continent.

"Welcome to this year's Swordsman Guild Ranking Challenge, this time, it's the thirty-fifth, I hope it can be a complete success, next, please ask the Great Elder to come up and explain the rules for everyone, everyone pay attention and listen, if you violate it, you will be punished!" the old man said and finally snorted coldly, making everyone's hearts flutter.

After saying these words, after the old man went down, the old man came up again.

This person, dressed in a gray robe, with a pair of sword eyebrows hanging upside down, his face was full of murderous aura, and he just glanced coldly below, and the original noise disappeared immediately.

"Okay, let's introduce the rules for everyone, and the rules that are not allowed to be violated, if they are violated, they will not be eligible to continue the competition, and if they are serious, they will be abolished!" After the old man finished speaking, his fierce gaze swept over everyone below.

Those people almost all lowered their heads to avoid his gaze.

Only a few people's eyes did not change in the slightest.

Among them were a few people that Xiao Ran didn't know, as well as Xiao Ran and that young man from Lin Chen dared to look directly at it.

Lin Chen retracted his gaze and looked at Xiao Ran with some surprise, this junior Sword Emperor realm person dared to look at the Sword Sect like this, which made him couldn't help but feel a little surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Ran a few more times.

However, Xiao Ran was too lazy to look at them, and sat back again, the old man was rambling in mid-air, nothing more than not intentionally hurting people, not killing people, and so on, and after saying this, the time for a stick of incense had almost passed. (To be continued......)
