The summer in the Tianchi Empire is not very hot. After nightfall, Qin Wushuang walked on the pine and cypress path in the backyard of the Songhe Inn. This Songhe Inn is quiet in the middle of noisy, and the backyard is very quiet, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Qin Wushuang liked this feeling very much.

Qin Wushuang looked up at the clouds, the starry sky was bright, the stars were dotted, vast and far-reaching, every star seemed to contain countless secrets, which made people incomprehensible.

Qin Wushuang's heart was like water, strolling on this path, he suddenly heard a slight footstep behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a white-clothed figure, under the starry sky, looking personable.

"Senior Brother Qin. When that person saw Qin Wushuang, he also smiled slightly and walked over.

"Senior Brother Wei, are you also taking a walk here?"

"Well, in four or five days, the Three Kingdoms Exchange Tournament will begin. Wei Yi sighed softly.

"Yes, the masters of the younger generation of the Eastern Three Kingdoms, whether it is a mule or a horse, are going to be pulled out and slippery. Qin Wushuang followed.

Wei Yi raised his head and looked up at the vast starry sky, and said in a condensed voice: "Senior Brother Qin, you have been in the first year for a year, and there are many things, and you may not know much. Do you know why the three major empires attach so much importance to this exchange competition between the three eastern kingdoms?"

"I really don't know about this, please ask Senior Brother Wei to solve your doubts. ”

Wei Yi sighed: "Speaking of which, it's really hard to say. To the east of the three eastern empires is the endless East China Sea. This endless East China Sea is a mysterious area where the entire Tianxuan Continent is one of the best. The vastness is boundless, at least a thousand times wider than our human kingdom. The endless East China Sea is a forbidden area for the human kingdom, a place that cannot be touched. But because of this, the human kingdom is full of curiosity about these forbidden areas. According to legend, this endless East China Sea is full of adventures and all kinds of magical things. In the past, the Eastern Three Kingdoms also had adventurers from time to time to challenge the endless East China Sea, but in the end, there were few survivors. Therefore, later, the three eastern countries agreed to blockade the Endless East China Sea, and no adventurer was allowed to enter the territory of the Endless East China Sea without permission......"

Qin Wushuang listened patiently, when he first started, he had heard Master Tan Zhongchi talk about several place names, saying that they were places that the human kingdom could not easily offend.

One of these names is the Endless East China Sea. It turns out that there is such an allusion.

"Senior Brother Wei, what does the Endless East China Sea have to do with the Three Eastern Kingdoms Exchange Competition?"

Wei Yi nodded and continued: "After the agreement between the three eastern kingdoms reached an agreement, it was calm for decades, but then I felt that there was such a huge treasure house as the endless East China Sea that I couldn't explore, and I always felt a little unwilling. Therefore, the three countries agreed that once every 20 years, the three countries would have an exchange competition. According to the ranking of the exchange competition, the endless East China Sea is collectively explored every 20 years. The number of places is decreasing according to the ranking. The champion can have ten people, while the runner-up can only have six people, and the bottom one can only have four places. ”

"Exploring the Endless East China Sea?" Qin Wushuang couldn't help but be a little suspicious, "Since that place is listed as a forbidden area, why do you want to explore it?"

"This kind of exploration is naturally a matter of taste. If you go deep into an area of 3,000 miles at most, you can't go any further. The sea area within 3,000 miles, although it is threatening, is still a degree. Once out of the 3,000-mile sea area, it is a crisis step by step, the waves are more empty than the sky, the water is as rapid as boiling, and the whirlpool waves are full of tsunami, which may be visited at any time. Wei Yi sighed, "These, I just heard the elders talk about it, but I don't know what it's like to explore the Endless East China Sea." ”

Qin Wushuang finally understood that the exchange competition of the three eastern kingdoms, to put it mildly, was still a battle for a place. In this way, exploring the endless East China Sea is certainly a great opportunity. The three empires will compete for this place so much.

"Senior Brother Wei, since ancient times, have you made any great gains from exploring this endless East China Sea?"

"I've never heard of the Great Harvest!" Wei Yi smiled, "But all the sects and factions have obviously tasted the sweetness, otherwise, how could they be so enthusiastic about this Eastern Three Kingdoms Exchange Tournament in the past thousand years?"

Qin Wushuang thought about it and made sense, if he didn't gain anything at all, why should he care so much about an illusory ranking? Naturally, the battle for places was also of great significance for exploring the Endless East China Sea.

This world is similar to the laws of the previous life, and it is not profitable to be early. There must be an internal reason why the three empires work so hard.

"Nominally, this Three Kingdoms Exchange Tournament is something that all the major sects of the Three Kingdoms are eligible to participate in. But in fact, those small sects and small factions are just foils after all. The Three Kingdoms Exchange Competition is mainly a competition between the Star Luo Palace, the Tianji Sect and the Dragon and Tiger Gate. Everything else is a dispensable vignette. ”

Wei Yi smiled heartily and suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Qin, do you have any personal goals for this exchange competition?"

Qin Wushuang was stunned and shook his head: "The junior brother doesn't know anything about the rules of the Three Kingdoms Exchange Competition, let alone what the competition is. Naturally, there is no personal goal. But I see that the hall master and my family master are very enthusiastic about this Three Kingdoms Exchange Competition. You can see that they take it very seriously. The elders are so eager, and those of us who are juniors can only go all out to get the championship and make them happy. ”

Wei Yi nodded solemnly: "That's right." Since Senior Brother Qin doesn't know anything about the rules, I happened to study the rules, and I am idle at the moment, so I will listen to you. ”

Qin Wushuang said happily: "I really can't ask for it. ”

Qin Wushuang has been living in seclusion in Qinjiazhuang for half a year, and when he returned to the Star Luo Palace, he also left when he saw his master. And Tan Zhongchi is also preparing to tell him the rules after arriving in the Tianchi Empire, so as not to distract him. And just gathered in one place today, Tan Zhongchi didn't even have time to explain the rules.

Wei Yi opened his mouth and said: "The Eastern Three Kingdoms Exchange Competition is somewhat similar to the year-end assessment of our Star Luo Palace, but it is not the same. It is divided into three parts. Each country can only send sixteen young disciples to participate. And these sixteen young disciples are also exquisite. The first congregation of each country sends ten slots, and the other denominations send six slots, making a total of sixteen slots. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Yi paused for a moment before continuing: "The first link, which is not scored, is a knockout round. Out of a total of forty-eight people in the Three Kingdoms, half of them will be eliminated. The remaining half will automatically enter the second link and start the official exchange competition. ”

"Half of the elimination? Will all countries eliminate half of them, or will they eliminate half of them, regardless of nationality?"

"Regardless of nationality, eliminate half!" Wei Yi said solemnly, "This first round began to be scoreless, but the competition started from the first round." The performance of this round will determine the number of places for each country to enter the semi-finals. Just imagine, if the results of the first round are not ideal. The number of places in the semi-finals is below the average of eight, so it will be troublesome. Because in the semifinals, the difference between one more person and one less person is sometimes determined by the surname. Unless there is a country where there is a top two. ”

"One top two?" Qin Wushuang smiled, "Senior Brother Wei and I, top two primordial spirit martial artists, shouldn't it be a problem?"

"That's bound to be fine. Wei Yi also explained with a smile, "However, all countries have middle spirit martial artists, so this advantage sometimes cancels each other out. Of course, this time, our Star Luo Hall has two Zhongling Martial Artists at the same time, and this advantage may become a deciding factor. If the other two countries don't have hole cards, and each has only one spirit warrior, then we will take advantage of this link. To a large extent, it may even determine the final direction of the trilateral exchange competition. ”

Wei Yi sighed: "Along the way, I can also feel the expectations of my fellow disciples and the pressure of me as a senior brother. At that time, I thought, if Senior Brother Qin is here, the situation of our Star Luo Hall will definitely be very different. Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Qin was still there. You don't know, you appeared, and the pressure on my shoulders can be said to be half removed. ”

"Wushuang is also looking forward to fighting against Senior Brother Wei together and fighting for the supreme honor of the Star Luo Palace. ”

Wei Yi smiled: "To get back to business, the rules of the first round of the knockout round are somewhat similar to that martial arts trial, the form is similar, but there are some deviations in content. You have a spectrum in your heart, and you will naturally know the detailed rules when the time comes. Compared to your martial arts trial, there will be relatively fewer accidental surnames and more inevitable surnames. For the realm and strength, as well as the test of all aspects, it is relatively strict. Stronger, weaker, manifested, will be very distinct. Therefore, the chance of an upset cannot be said to be 100% non-existent, but it is also very small. ”

"After the end of the knockout round, the second round is also a variety of assessments, and the assessment also has score evaluation; and then the third round, the third round, is the real main theme - the competition!"

The competition can be said to be the most popular and direct way of competition on the Tianxuan Continent. This way, although primitive and monotonous, is the most convincing.

Qin Wushuang now understands why the Star Luo Hall has to conduct a year-end assessment every year. This assessment is so frequent, it turns out that there is a surname for the surname, and it is not a completely meaningless assessment.

And this is for the surname, naturally it is this Eastern Three Kingdoms Exchange Competition!

The form is similar, the content is similar, Qin Wushuang heard this, and he also had some bottom in his heart, if this is the case, then everything is not unfamiliar.

However, Wei Yi said: "Senior Brother Qin, this martial arts competition is different from our Star Luo Palace's round by round promotion competition. There is absolutely no lottery element to be allowed. In other words, it wasn't a knockout ranking tournament, but it also had the brutality of a knockout tournament. There are also two possible surnames that are either continued or out. ”

"Oh?" Qin Wushuang was curious, "May I ask Senior Brother Wei, what about the specific content of this martial arts competition?"

Hearing Wei Yi say this, Qin Wushuang couldn't help but rekindle his interest in the rules of this martial arts competition.
