Chapter 196: The First Round of Elimination

After a few hours passed, the sky above Shenzhou Mountain gradually turned golden, and soon the heavenly space echoed with the sound of the Great Dao, as if telling the thirst for something, and then the golden clouds began to roll, and a huge golden bell the size of a house slowly emerged from the golden clouds.

Knock! Knock!

The golden giant bell rang three times in a row, and the quaint bell suddenly spread throughout the entire Shenzhou Mountain, including Ling Xi, fifteen people couldn't help but look up at the golden giant bell in the sky, the golden giant bell rotated slowly in the sky, and there were many golden words floating around it, as for what the golden words recorded, it is said that only the old man of Hongshan knew about it, because only the old man of Hongshan could decipher some of those golden words, but the old man of Hongshan did not reveal the content of the golden text to the outside, so the content of the golden text was a mystery from the beginning。

Ling Xi looked at the golden giant clock suspended in the sky, a little confusion appeared in his eyes, and he muttered:

"Is this the Shenzhou Bell?"

Ling Xi heard Sun Mochen say that the Shenzhou Bell is the treasure of Shenzhou Mountain, the grade is the high-level imperial soldier, and it also plays the role of a referee in the Shenzhou Trial, and the rules of the Shenzhou Trial are drawn up by the Shenzhou Bell, it is said that when the old man of Hongshan persuaded the enemy to retreat from the tens of millions of troops on the border of the Hongling Empire, he took the Shenzhou Bell with him, but in the end, the tens of millions of troops of the enemy country took the initiative to retreat, and the old man of Hongshan did not use the Shenzhou Bell, otherwise the tens of millions of troops of the enemy country are very likely to become the souls of the Shenzhou Bell.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The Shenzhou bell rang four times in a row, and then four golden rays of light shone on the four people of Jinlun, Qin Tianci, Li Wuchen, and Guan Fan, and the stone platform under the feet of the four people was immediately raised, and finally it was seven or eight zhang higher than the stone platform under Ling Xi's feet.

Ling Xi knew what was going on, according to the rules of the Shenzhou Trial, the top four in the third stage of the trial could directly advance to the final in the fourth stage of the trial, that is to say, Jin Lun, Qin Tianci, Li Wuchen, and Guan Fan had already obtained the qualification to participate in the fourth stage of the trial finals, except for the four of them, the remaining eleven people, including Ling Xi, would have to go through several rounds of elimination to compete for the other four places, how to compete specifically, because Sun Mochen did not say it clearly, so Ling Xi did not know.

When Ling Xi was still wondering how the fourth stage of the trial was going, a voice sounded above his head, and that voice said:

"The top four in the third stage of the trial will directly advance to the final finals, the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth places will be determined, the ninth place will have a bye, and the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth places will choose your opponent, and then the first round of the fourth stage of the trial will officially begin. ”

After that, Ling Xi immediately understood the rules of the fourth stage of the trial, as the voice said, at the beginning, the last six will determine the three winners, these three winners plus the ninth trialist will decide the four winners with the fifth to eighth trialists, and then the last four winners and the top four will determine the last four winners, and the last four winners will also be eligible to leave their names on the Shenzhou Tablet.

Such rules are naturally more beneficial to the people at the top of the ranking, after all, they will not expose some hole cards prematurely, and the more their bottom is not known by others, they will naturally have more advantages in the battle, but Ling Xi is miserable, he is the last place, he must go through two rounds of knockouts and one round of finals to become the final winner, fortunately there is enough rest time after each round of elimination, he doesn't have to worry about consumption, he still has to think about how to advance to the finals without exposing too much strength, so that some of his killer moves will play their due role in the finals。

Ling Xi is still thinking about it, the top four directly advanced to the finals, the fifth Luo Qianyi, the sixth Qin Xuexin, the seventh Qin Tianmian, and the eighth is the masked man in black, these four are to be determined in the second round of elimination, and Liu Lei fell to the ninth place because of the strong addition of Luo Qianyi and the masked man in black, but he has a bye, which is similar to being determined in the second round of elimination, as for the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth places, they have already begun to choose their opponents.

The tenth place was a woman with three swords embroidered on her shoulder, indicating that she was from the Heavenly Sword Sect, one of the four major forces, she raised her eyes to look at Ling Xi, obviously wanting to choose Ling Xi as her opponent, but when she was about to choose Ling Xi as her opponent, she suddenly stopped talking, and then chose the fourteenth place as her opponent.

In this regard, Ling Xi guessed that the woman of the Heavenly Sword Sect should not know that he was Ling Xi, and when she was about to choose him as her opponent, she received a transmission from Li Wuchen or Liu Lei, saying that he was Ling Xi, so the woman of the Heavenly Sword Sect suddenly changed her mind and chose the fourteenth place as her opponent.

Ling Xi guessed correctly, the woman of the Heavenly Sword Sect thought that the masked man in black was Ling Xi at first, and she would not have thought that the last place was Ling Xi, when she had just selected her opponent, she was about to choose Ling Xi as her opponent, and she received a transmission from Liu Lei, only then did she know that the last place was Ling Xi, she had heard that Ling Xi had eliminated Jin Lei before, so she was not Ling Xi's opponent, and she also hurriedly changed her mind and chose the fourteenth place as her opponent.

After the women of the Heavenly Sword Sect chose their opponents, it was their turn to choose the eleventh opponent, the eleventh one was a relatively thin man, and his strength was in the late stage of Haodi Yin, but it was only one step away from the consummation of Haodi Yin, looking at the outfit, it should not be a person from the four major forces, but most likely from a super family, he didn't even think about it and chose Ling Xi as his opponent, after he chosen, the people around him looked at him with sympathetic eyes, making him confused, I don't know what happened, how did the eyes of the people around him suddenly change, of course, if he knew that the opponent he chose without hesitation was Ling Xi, he would know what was going on。

Although the eleventh didn't know that he had chosen Ling Xi as his opponent, his family members outside were clear, his name was Tang Jing, and the Tang family behind him was also well-known in the Hongling Empire, it was a super family, when he chose Ling Xi as his opponent, the faces of the Tang family were full of bitter melons, knowing that he was already finished, it was a coincidence that he chose Ling Xi as his opponent.

Tang Jing chose Ling Xi as his opponent, and the twelfth place had no choice, he could only choose the thirteenth place as his opponent, but he was glad that Tang Jing chose Ling Xi as his opponent, otherwise he would face Ling Xi, and it can only be said that this Tang Jing was a wronged leader for nothing.

After all three of them chose their opponents, the first round of eliminations officially began, first the twelfth and thirteenth places went to the White Rock Ring for the first round of elimination, the strength of the two was similar, but in the end, the twelfth place narrowly defeated the thirteenth place and qualified for the next round of elimination.

After the twelfth and thirteenth places decided the winner, the thirteenth place was teleported out of Shenzhou Mountain, and then it was time for Ling Xi and Tang Jing's knockout match, many people were interested in guessing how the game would end, and how many rounds Tang Jing could survive in Ling Xi's hands.

In this way, under the sympathetic gaze of the surroundings, Tang Jing and Ling Xi both walked to the white stone ring, and Tang Jing took the lead and said:

"In Xia Tang Jing, please advise. ”

"On the eve of the next midnight, please advise. ”

Ling Xi also reported his name.

"What!You're Ling Xi!?"

After hearing Ling Xi's name, Tang Jing's face first appeared in disbelief, and then slowly became bitter, he knew that it was no wonder that the woman of the Heavenly Sword Sect did not choose the fifteenth place as an opponent, no wonder after he chose the opponent, the people around him would look at him with sympathy, it turned out that the opponent he chose was Ling Xi, which he never expected, he and the woman of the Heavenly Sword Sect had the same idea, thinking that the masked man in black was Ling Xi, but he was not as lucky as the woman of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and someone said that the fifteenth place was Ling Xi, otherwise how could he choose Ling Xi as an opponent。

"Yes, I am. ”

Ling Xi knew very well what Tang Jing was thinking in his heart at this time, he nodded with a smile, only then did he know that he still had some bad reputation in the Shenzhou trial, which could attract many people to be so jealous.

Although Tang Jing regretted it extremely at this time, it was always Ling Xi who he chose as his opponent, and the outcome was decided, even if he didn't want to face Ling Xi, he had to compete with Ling Xi, of course, unless he gave up the knockout match with Ling Xi now, then he wouldn't have to compete with Ling Xi, but that was undoubtedly a coward's performance, he naturally wouldn't choose to give up the knockout round, so he could only do his best to compete with Ling Xi, even if the final result was doomed, he had to play his own blood.

It's a pity that the difference in strength between Tang Jing and Ling Xi is too big, just thirty or forty rounds, Tang Jing was defeated by Ling Xi.

"Thank you for your mercy, I'm convinced. ”

Tang Jing hugged his fists, and he only knew how strong Ling Xi was when he fought with Ling Xi, if Ling Xi didn't show mercy to his subordinates, then he would probably lose under Ling Xi in less than ten rounds, and Ling Xi could be regarded as saving him some face, so that he would lose less ugly.

Ling Xi smiled and nodded, and then Tang Jing disappeared from the White Stone Ring, probably teleported out of Shenzhou Mountain.

After the elimination match between Ling Xi and Tang Jing ended, it was time for the Heavenly Sword Sect women and the fourteenth place knockout round, the strength of the women of the Heavenly Sword Sect was even deeper, plus there was also the Heavenly Sword Sect's unique sword trick Heavenly Dance Silver Snow Sword, the women of the Heavenly Sword Sect defeated the fourteenth place extremely easily.

Ling Xi was the first time he had seen the Heavenly Dance Silver Snow Sword of the Heavenly Sword Sect, although the women of the Heavenly Sword Sect used it a little roughly, but they could still see the mystery of the Heavenly Sword Sect, which could support the Heavenly Sword Sect to become one of the four major forces, and the Heavenly Dance Silver Snow Sword really lived up to its reputation.

The first round of the knockout round of the fourth stage of the trial ended like this, except for the first knockout game that lasted for a long time, the last two knockout matches ended not long after, so the first round of knockout did not delay much time.

According to the rules, Ling Xi and the others had a three-hour break after playing the knockout round, and then the second round of the knockout round would be played.

Boom!

Three hours passed quickly, and at this time, the Shenzhou bell rang, and Ling Xi immediately opened his eyes and looked at the white stone ring in the middle, he knew that the second round of eliminations was about to begin······
