Chapter Ninety-One: Shaded
The rules of the selection competition are clearly written, in previous years, the selection of Luo Tian Academy was in the form of a knockout competition, but this time it was held directly in the 'Ancient Secret Realm'.
'Ancient Secret Realm' Xie Xing didn't know before, but now it is clear that this is an ancient relic that only opens once every thousand years. That is to say, it was a thousand years ago before the last opening, and this time the selection of Luo Tian Academy coincided with the opening of the 'Ancient Secret Realm', I don't know for what reason, not only Luo Tian Academy, but even several other academies have used the opening of the 'Ancient Secret Realm' as a place for selection and trials, and even a place for treasure hunting.
Not only Xie Xing can think of it, but all people can think of it, a secret realm that has not been opened for thousands of years, once it is opened, how much spirit grass and treasures should be inside. Moreover, it is said that the 'Ancient Secret Realm' used to enter the trial of Star King and Star Venerable level masters, but later due to various reasons, only star cultivators below the star master could enter, while star cultivators above the star master could not enter the secret realm.
However, with the opening of the 'Ancient Secret Realm' this time, there were not only trialists from the major academies who entered, but also disciples from the major sects, as well as many scattered cultivators, and so on.
Xie Xing also thoroughly understood why Luo Tian Academy's enrollment was so popular, it turned out that although every trialist who entered the 'Ancient Secret Realm' had a jade plaque, only the jade cards of the three major academies of Luo Tian Star Cultivation Academy, Ganges Star Cultivation Academy, and Datang Star Cultivation Academy could be used to spread out the secret realm at the most dangerous time. However, this jade plate can only be used by myself.
The other jade plates are just a key to enter the secret realm and come out at the end, without any life-saving function.
Even if you don't go in, you can imagine the dangers in the 'Ancient Secret Realm', not to mention the tens of thousands of star cultivators who will go in, and there are also masters at the peak of the star generals, if a star person enters and meets the star general, it can be said that there is no other way than to seek death.
The reason why these three academies have this kind of death-free jade plaque is because these three academies have Star Emperors in charge, and this kind of jade plaque that is transmitted in time can only be made by Star Emperors, but what the specific situation is, Xie Xing does not know. However, he knows that even if you have this kind of jade plate, it does not mean that it is safe, and maybe the danger is that you have not activated the jade plate, and it is not necessarily that you have already died.
And the selection conditions of Luo Tian Academy are to distinguish between high and low according to the number and level of spirit grass collected. A first-level spirit grass is one point, a second-level spirit grass is ten points, a third-level spirit grass is a hundred points, a fourth-level spirit grass is a thousand points, and a fifth-level spirit grass is ten thousand points. As for the spirit grass above level five, it is generally not available to people below the star master, not to mention level five or above, even the spirit grass at level five is not available to ordinary people.
Moreover, Xie Xing also heard that if the results are in the top three in all the college selections, there will be another reward, and this reward is jointly provided by the three colleges.
These spirit grasses belong to the collectors, but they can also be exchanged with Luo Tian Academy for the corresponding spirit pills and star stones, Xie Xing thinks that collecting spirit grass may be the main purpose of Luo Tian Academy. However, if he got the high-grade spirit grass, he would never take it out to exchange it for the star stone, even if he took it out to increase his score, he would not be able to take it out, because once the high-grade spirit grass was taken out, it would immediately be targeted, unless you sold it to Luo Tian Academy.
Three days after participating in the competition of the remaining 1,000 people in Luo Tian Academy, of course Xie Xing signed up. Although there were many people participating, he was sure that there were a full 1,000 people in the selection quota for admission.
However, because Xie Xing didn't know what Li Shaoye was doing in Luotian Academy and what he was thinking about, Xie Xing was very careful when he acted, and even went out of his way to buy a mask to wear. He didn't want any accidents to happen before entering the secret realm, for him, entering such a secret realm that had never been opened for a thousand years was the guarantee of cultivation resources in the future.
Three days later, the selection arena of Luo Tian Xiuxing Academy was even more crowded. Fortunately, it is a knockout round, Xie Xing only needs to participate in three competitions, and if any of them loses, he will be eliminated immediately. With all three wins, there is no doubt that you will enter the top 1,000, but you don't need to compete later, because as long as you choose 1,000 people, the ranking will automatically be divided in the secret realm.
There were 8,000 people who participated in this 1,000-person competition, and even some Gathering Source Star Cultivators came to try their luck, maybe they met three Star Cultivators who were lower than him, and they also mixed in with the top 1,000 people.
However, this kind of luck is very rare, more than 80% of the people who come to sign up are stars, and some are stars and generals.
The first thing Xie Xing met was a star man, he just sent out the momentum of his star warrior, and this star man took the initiative to admit defeat, and he didn't even make a move.
However, Xie Xing didn't do it, it didn't mean that others didn't do it either, and there were constantly serious injuries and deaths in the field. There are no rules to speak of in this kind of competition, just bloody elimination.
In the second game, Xie Xing's opponent was still a star, and Xie Xing just took out a medium-grade magic weapon this time to defeat the opponent, without using any of his signature moves. However, Xie Xing is not so cruel, as long as he defeats the other party, Xie Xing still disdains the matter of asking for the other party's surname at every turn.
Even if he kills the other party, he won't get any benefit, so why bother.
Xie Xing's performance in the two games was very mediocre and didn't attract much attention, but there were two fierce star cultivators in the field who attracted the attention of most people, and even Xie Xing noticed these two in the end.
One of them is a fierce star warrior with a face full of spots, I don't know if it's his bad luck or the other party's bad luck, the two test objects he drew are actually star warriors, but this star warrior with spots on his face only used less than ten moves before and after, and killed these two star warriors respectively, without leaving his hand.
Xie Xing watched very carefully because he ended early, and when this person made a move for the second time, he seemed to snort, and then Xie Xing saw a trace of confusion in the eyes of the star soldier opposite him, and then he was killed by this guy with spots on his face. This person is so simple, it can be seen that he is a powerful character.
Another young man with a white face was cruel and abnormal, and the two star people who did it with him were directly torn apart by him. Xie Xing thought in his heart that this person was very likely to be a murderer, or a pervert. If you don't want to let go of the other party, you will kill it, but this cruel way makes Xie Xing very disgusted.
Xie Xing's last match was on the second day, but his opponent was a woman in her thirties. There is actually a mid-stage cultivation of the star warrior. Although her cultivation was nothing to Xie Xing, Xie Xing couldn't expose his several major killing moves, so he was a little shrunken when he moved.
"You are not my opponent, you give up fighting with me, I will give you a thousand star stones. Seeing that Xie Xing only had a medium-grade magic weapon, the woman barely blocked her attack.
Xie Xing was secretly amused, and decided to take out the lower grade treasure weapon flying sword, but it was too simple for this woman to buy him with a thousand lower grade star stones.
"You are not my opponent, you give up the fight with me, I will give you 10,000 star stones. Xie Xing finished with a sneer, and took out the lower grade treasure weapon casually.
"What you said is true?" The woman suddenly slowed down her offensive, but before Xie Xing could continue to speak, she said again: "Okay, I admit defeat." ”
Xie Xing looked at this woman admitting defeat with a bitter mouth, but he didn't expect that there was really such a person. However, 10,000 lower-grade star stones were nothing to Xie Xing.
"You don't think you're going to regret it. Seeing that Xie Xing ignored her, she just walked directly to the registration office, and the woman followed behind and said.
Although he wanted to ask if this woman was premeditated, just for the sake of these ten thousand star stones, Xie Xing held back, anyway, this woman didn't know him. He threw a bag of gifts to her and said, "This is a star stone, don't follow me." ”
The woman took the star stone, smiled at Xie Xing weirdly, and disappeared into the crowd in a blink of an eye. Xie Xing suddenly had a bad premonition that there was something wrong with this woman.
Xie Xing handed over the three numbers he won to the registration office, and the people at the registration office looked at the three number plates, and suddenly said, "Your selection has been eliminated." ”
"I obviously won three games, how could I be eliminated?" Xie Xing stared at the person in charge of the registration office inexplicably.
"Someone just accused you of cheating, this is a whistleblower crystal ball. After speaking, the person at the registration office picked up a crystal ball and threw it to Xie Xing.
Xie Xing picked up the crystal ball, and inside was the picture of him handing the woman a gift bag.
It was shaded.
Who is Yin He? Xie Xing thought that he had come here and wore a mask, and no one would be able to recognize him. But Xie Xing also knew that Yin He was definitely a familiar person, after all, this thousand places were not a precious thing, and even if others brought him down, they might not necessarily be able to replace him.
Therefore, the person who said that he must be the one who knows him and has an enmity with him.
Xie Xing's first thought was Ji Ming, Ji Ming was also from Thousand Purple Valley, he must have known that he had left Thousand Purple Valley during this time, and Ji Ming had a secret plan, maybe he could find him Xie Xing.
If it was Ji Ming, then his own purpose was probably to make himself unable to get the jade plate of Luo Tian Academy, but he calculated that he would go to the 'Ancient Secret Realm' and then kill himself in the secret realm.
But the 'Ancient Secret Realm' is so big, how did Ji Ming know that he would definitely be able to find him? No, didn't he come to Luo Tian with a mask? If it was him, did he really find himself through investigation? Or was he lucky?
He's put a tracking mark on himself, absolutely. But who has the ability to unknowingly leave a tracking mark on himself? When he left Qianzi Valley, he only came into contact with three people, namely Wen Lei, Tong Hanshan, and Li Kai.
Wen Lei shouldn't help Ji Ming do this kind of thing, so who are Tong Hanshan and Li Kai?
