059. The Hunter and the Prey
There are rules in the competitive ring, but those who admit defeat and leave the ring will be deemed to have abstained and admitted defeat and are not allowed to pursue again.
However, those who leave the ring will only lose the qualification to compete in the original ring and compete for the ring master, and it is completely feasible to go to other rings to challenge.
This rule was deliberately erased by Elder Zou from this year's newly issued jade talisman, just to exploit loopholes and make Mo Fan and the others suffer a dumb loss. But he never expected that Mo Fan's monthly rules would be deducted too seriously in the deacon's office, so that he finally simply got the jade talisman from Ji Jianming's early years (anyway, this rule follows the spirit of ancient martial arts and will never be changed), so he read each one carefully and carefully, without any mistakes or omissions.
And since Mo Fan knew that the owner of the ring was decided by the referee elders, he immediately informed all the people who had been in contact with him, telling them to be careful. It doesn't matter if you become the ring master in the first round first, anyway, one-third of the one hundred and eight rings are allocated to the disciples of the Qi refining period below the Mortal Realm, even if they give up an opportunity, the rest of the time is definitely enough for them to try one by one!
As long as you perform well enough after that, what if you lose the first round?
Wouldn't it be nice to pull back the impression score later, and finally defend the ring and become one of the ring owners?
No one has to be in the same ring from beginning to end!
"What are you angry about?" Elder Lan pretended to be puzzled, and when Elder Zou was about to refute Mo Fan and the others, he just remembered appropriately, "They are completely in line with the rules of the competitive ring competition, can you find out something?"
Elder Zou had barely reached the Baoyuan realm, and even among the disciples below who were competing, there were also many people who had cultivated several ranks higher than him. This first batch of ring masters who have been eliminated is no problem for her and Yinghua Zhenren, there is no reason for Elder Zou to come out and see that there is a violation of the rules!
"Nope. Elder Zou naturally knew that he was inferior to the two around him, and he couldn't say that he had secretly changed the rules in the jade talisman he had issued, so he could only eat the yellow lotus dumbly, and said with a bitter smile, "I just think that they are so young, and they are just embarking on the road of cultivating immortals, and they are so opportunistic in doing things, which is really not a good thing...... That's why I want to talk about them, hehe!"
It seems to be a simple and well-intentioned explanation, but it is full of many provocations and provocations, which makes many elders who did not pay special attention to the new disciples frown, and obviously they are also not very optimistic about the character of Mo Fan and others.
Some people even suggested that the points and ratings of several people should be downgraded, so as to make an example of the monkeys.
"It's too early to say anything, so you don't have to waste that effort. Yinghua Zhenren said lukewarmly at this time, "Maybe they are just too nervous, so they just give up this first game first, and adjust their state well, so as not to make themselves unable to fight seriously in the next place because of carelessness." He slowly turned his head to Elder Zou, whose face was blue and white for a while, and said unhurriedly, "We all have eyes to see for ourselves, so we won't let Elder Zou interject here!"
"Hey, don't make any noise, don't make any noise!" Elder Wen came out to see Mo Fan's performance today, and he was the most impatient with the other people's verbal warfare and sword shadows at every turn, which seriously affected his mood of watching, and immediately said out loud in displeasure, "If you don't want to choose a disciple so much, and you don't bother to be this referee, you can quickly take leave and go back to your cave mansion, so as not to be an eyesore!"
"That is, if you like to get out early, then you don't need to criticize the good apprentice who others look at here!" Elder Lan grinned and grabbed Elder Wen's arm, and quipped innocently, "Everyone else is tired of watching from the side!"
Everyone knows that she is talking about Zou Zicheng, who made serious mistakes in the entrance assessment of new students, and even made Yinghua Zhenren publicly question his character, and after entering the entrance, he entered the inner gate under the escort of Elder Zou and led the lowest status, but after all, he was under the shadow of his own ancestors, and the resources he received were not lost to the first and second class inner disciples.
After that, he was inexplicably poisoned, and his whole body was covered with abscesses, itchy and painful, and he couldn't cultivate at all. It is said that Zou Zicheng's wailing was so terrible that many inner disciples walked around his residence, and they would rather spend an extra half a day than never approach!
And Elder Zou left the work at hand and begged people everywhere to help him make an antidote, and finally managed to cure Zou Zicheng reluctantly, but the progress of cultivation was completely stagnant, and even if he could defeat many disciples with poor qualifications, it was absolutely impossible to become a ring master.
This can be regarded as a joke that is constantly circulating among the elders of the Aoki Gate, but because Elder Zou still has a great right to speak in front of the Lord of the Xu Sect, most of the people only dare to talk and laugh in private, and they definitely don't dare to say it as arrogantly as Elder Lan.
"Don't want your favorite disciple to be beaten to death, even if you have potential, it's in vain!" Elder Zou seemed to be very angry, and his words began to be straightforward and ugly, "At least I still have the possibility of a comeback, your apprentice is only afraid that he will have to find the basis for reincarnation in the vast sea of people again!"
The few elders who sat close and could hear clearly couldn't help but gasp when they heard this, and they just wished that they didn't sit in this position today, so they quickly found an excuse to escape, for fear that they would be affected for no reason.
Elder Lan and Yinghua Zhenren were backed by Elder Wen and Elder Shui, and it could be said that even the Lord of the Xu Sect had to knock out his teeth and swallow blood. They are just small elders, guest elders, where do they dare to watch the excitement here?
There was chaos in the ring, and the atmosphere in the elders' seat was also bleak and weird.
"Mo Fan, do you dare to fight me!" Suddenly, a voice roared loudly in the ring.
"Isn't that Cui Yong?" a disciple whispered in the audience.
"I thought he would go out to practice and not come back!"
"How is that possible, he is Elder Zou's beloved disciple, if something happens, where will the old man be willing to give up!"
"Didn't you just rush back to give your master a head?"
Cui Yongcai didn't care what the others said.
He stood tall in the ring, overlooking the young man who was still so conspicuous and unforgettable even if he stood in the middle of the crowd, and said loudly and defiantly,
"Isn't it the person who came out of the slaughterhouse who is known as full of warriors? Could it be that I was scared in the first round of the ring just now, and now I don't even have the courage to compete with others fairly? I specially grabbed the qualification of a ring master first, just to fight with you!"
As he spoke, the spear in Cui Yong's hand slammed into the floor of the ring, smashing a hole through the ring, scattering debris and smoke and dust, causing bursts of screams.
"Don't let me down!"
In the crowd, the corners of Mo Fan's lips, in Li Daren's frightened eyes and Ji Jianming's helpless shaking of his head, slowly opened a brilliant arc.
"Don't dare to disobey!"
The refreshing voice was accompanied by a thin and tall extremely black shadow that rushed into the ring, and raised his hand with a sharp palm wind carrying the scorching fire, just like that, Cui Yong's face burned over!
"Be careful!" Elder Zou was frightened by this sudden change, and subconsciously wanted to remind Cui Yong.
But I don't want to be sitting in the stands at the moment, full of people waiting to find fault on the left and right.
What's more, he is sitting so far away at the moment, no matter how fast he speaks, it is completely impossible to help Cui Yong......
"Yo! It seems that the road is dead, I don't know yet!" Elder Lan said loudly to Yinghua Zhenren with a smile on his face, "And I want to help my disciple cheat, it's really shameless!"
"The sneak attack is shameless!" Elder Zou said in a hurry, "This kind of person who acts against the way of heaven should not be shielded!"
"You can say a few words!" Elder Lan was not afraid of him, and said with a disdainful face, "The disciples who rushed up to fight the ring master in the first round all did their actions in one go, and they were all sneak attacks!
The two choked on the stage, and Mo Fan in the ring was already playing Cui Yong like a ghost.
After breaking through the Nine Levels, his cultivation to the Ascending Realm was no longer as fast as before. But with the "Mixed Yuan Condensation Qi Technique" in hand, his cultivation is strong and the accumulation is extremely deep, even if he is still only in the metamorphosis stage of the mortal realm, as long as he is willing to break out, he is also invincible in the same realm.
In addition, the divine soul is at the level of an old monster, and all of Cui Yong's movements seem to him to be as slow as a turtle, and he is not even in the mood to take out some refining gadgets that have been prepared a long time ago. The long knife given by the Yinghua real person in his hand picked it up in the east and stabbed it in the west, and there was no pressure to play with Cui Yong in the palm of his hand, and he even studied the jade talisman that was inserted into the knife technique with great interest.
And Mo Fan's leisure, in the eyes of others, is as terrible as the devil.
You must know that Mo Fan is now only the seventh layer of qi refining in their eyes, and Cui Yong has just stepped into the mortal transformation stage of the mortal realm, and it is not a problem to use spiritual power to consume several Mo Fan. What's more, Cui Yong has been training outside all the year round, so in terms of combat experience, he should have to suppress Mo Fan and beat him......
How did it turn it completely upside down?
"This stinky boy!" Ji Jianming muttered to himself in a cold sweat as he stood under the stage, proud, and pinched, "He has completely brought himself and his opponent into the state of mind of a hunter and a prey...... The man who was supposed to be the prey has now become the most terrible hunter, and the most embarrassing thing is that the person being hunted still knows nothing and thinks that he has fallen into some trap......"
As everyone knows, he has already been crushed in terms of strength in all aspects. ”
