Chapter 791: The Race Begins
With the passage of time, the Dan Formation Contest in Xiaoyao City officially entered the itinerary, and there were many applicants for the Dan Array Contest this time, with more than 10,000 people participating in the Dan Skill Contest alone, the number of people in the formation competition was the smallest, only 2,000 people, and the number of refiners was the largest, reaching more than 30,000 people.
However, there are a lot of indiscriminate fillings, in the first round of qualifying, the Danji side asked to refine a fourth-order elixir, but there were less than 2,000 people left in the first round; because some formations were more troublesome to arrange, the examination time was a little longer, and the starting point was also a fourth-order formation, requiring each contestant to arrange a fourth-order magic array, and as a result, there were only more than 600 people left in the first round; the refining weapon was slightly better, and nearly 20,000 people were qualified, after all, this refining weapon is still often tried, but many people can't do such things as engraving the formation on the finished product。
Lu Yi did not participate in the first round of the competition, which was also deliberately arranged by the Fairy, she did not let Lu Yi play, and also whetted the appetite of many people who rushed to see the demeanor of the white-haired Dan God. The second round of the qualifying tournament has already raised the elixir to be refined to the fifth order, and this time, Lu Yi appeared on the stage, but his appearance was not even an hour, and he successfully refined a fifth-order elixir - Yingqi Dan. This is a relatively common elixir that helps monks recover their spiritual power, it is not troublesome to refine, and the materials required are not much, many fifth-order pills will refine it, and its price is reasonable among the fifth-order pills, so the sales volume on the market has been very high, and there are many monks who know it. After obtaining the qualification, Lu Yi quickly disappeared from the audience's field of vision, and it seemed very mysterious to come and go in a hurry. This round took half a day to declare the end, and the qualified players all chose the popular pill that is easier to refine, so as to ensure the success rate and not expose their strength too early, which shows that the players still put some thought into it. After this round, there are less than 500 people who can meet the standard.
The second round of the formation competition is still the fourth-order formation, because there are very few people who dare to call themselves fifth-order formation mages when they sign up this time, less than 100 people in total, according to the assumption, when entering the knockout round, about 100 people need to be retained, so only a little bit of the fourth-order formation mages can be retained. This time, the test of the formation is that the Xiaoyao Alliance has come up with a fourth-order ancient formation diagram for everyone to understand and arrange, and the final promotion ranking will be determined according to the chronological order of completion. Not surprisingly, all the players who claimed to be formation mages above the fifth order had all passed the test, which showed that there were no boasting and deceitful among them, and in addition to these people, there were more than a dozen fourth-order formation mages who also quickly comprehended the formation and achieved their goals, and successfully ranked among the top 100.
The competition on the refining side is relatively cruel, the second round of qualifying directly requires the refining of fifth-order magic weapons, and as a result, 14,000 people are brushed down at once, and only less than 6,000 people are considered to have passed, and they will face the third selection, and it is said that the third round is to refine sixth-order magic weapons.
The selection of array mages ended early, after all, the number of participants was small, and there were fewer masters, and the third round of Danshi and refining selection started as scheduled. In terms of pill skills, it is required to refine fifth-order pills and the quality must reach the middle grade or above, and as a result, nearly half of the contestants are eliminated;
When the Dan Technical Examination School raised the standard to the fifth-order upper grade, the number of Dan masters who met the standard was only more than eighty, and these were the final players who entered the knockout round.
After the refining side raised the quality to the difficulty of the sixth-order high-grade magic weapon, only more than 300 people were retained, and the first round of the Dan Array Competition was considered to have come to an end, and the second round of the competition would officially start after the players had rested for five days.
In a luxury inn in the Escape City, three people were sitting in one of the top rooms.
"Miss, we are still late, I didn't expect to be missed when the most people were there, and we all blame that damn Fairy Ru Yue, who actually set such a big trap for us, and caused us to go around such a big circle before we found out that we were deceived. One said.
"Uncle Feng, we can't blame anyone else, we were playing a game of cat and mouse with them, so they must have tried their best to waste our time and create all kinds of illusions to confuse us. The three of them were none other than Zhu Ji and his entourage, who had just arrived in Xiaoyao City. Before, they were still a little worried about Zhu Qi, so they quietly followed Zhu Qi for a long distance, until they confirmed that Zhu Qi was indeed not the person they were looking for, and then turned back and headed in the direction of Extinguishing Cloud City. Along the way, they also heard the news that two major events were going to be held here, and the three of them felt that this might be an opportunity to find Lu Yi, so they stepped up and went straight to Xiaoyao City. After arriving in Xiaoyao City, to the surprise of the three of them, the excitement of the early stage had passed, the preliminary round had ended, a large number of players had been eliminated, and they would no longer appear in front of people, so there was Feng Dongming's complaint.
"Well, Miss is right, I also found out through other channels, this Cloud Extinguishing City is also a node for the undercover agent to be planted in the Law Enforcement Hall this time, but the situation here is complicated, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away, people like Lu Gongzi belong to the junior talents who have been trained by the Law Enforcement Hall, and they need to be taken care of, and they will not be arranged to this kind of dangerous place, so we don't have to have much hope when we come here to look for it, just come and see the excitement and relax." And this Cloud Extinguishing City has been turbulent recently, I heard that some time ago I discovered a high-level demon race, and now there is a free city in plain white, it can be seen how chaotic it is here, we must pay more attention when we stay here, Miss, don't run out by yourself, otherwise the three elders will blame us. "The monk known as Baili was very cautious and always on high alert.
"Don't worry, Uncle Baili, I'm not a child anymore, I'm quite curious about here, I want to stay here for a few more days, I heard that there are other ring matches, which reminds me of the game we had with demon beasts on the Huadu Plateau, otherwise, I'll also go and sign up, learn from the monks here, and see how I have entered the country over the years?" Zhu Xi had already taken off her veil at this moment, and there was a playful smile on her delicate face.
"Miss, don't mess around, otherwise it's really hard for us to go back. Feng Dongming was taken aback by Zhu Xi's sudden idea. , You must know that when the three of them went out, the three elders of Wenfeng told them to protect Zhu Xi's safety, these years, the three elders have spoiled Zhu Xi to the sky, and now all the monks of the three elders of Wenfeng have not offered Zhu Xi as a princess.
"If you don't say it, I won't say it, who can know? The three masters looked at me so strictly all day long, and everyone was going to suffocate to death. Zhu Xi pouted, that expression was really a disaster for the country and the people.
Lu Yi has not returned to the Danshen Building since the opening of the game, but has lived back to the Yanzi Garden according to the arrangement of the Xiaoyao Fairy, and now this Yanzi Garden has become Lu Yi's "palace" in Xiaoyao City. Mei Qingzhu entered the puppet again, and appeared in front of people as the great protector of the Xiaoyao Alliance, and it was precisely because of her appearance that Shi Tiancheng and the others did not dare to make a mistake, and they were obediently driven away by the Xiaoyao Fairy.
Now Lu Yi is discussing with Mei Qingzhu, "You said, will Zhu Xi and they not come, according to calculations, they should arrive earlier than Lu Ying, but after the competition these days, I haven't seen them show up." ”
"It's better not to come, it saves you from worrying all day long, what's the matter? Are you still looking forward to her coming?
"Well, didn't I feel unsure? I wished she had really come, and then left without being able to see through my identity, so that I would have a better life in the future. It's really not a taste to be in suspense at all times!" Lu Yi sighed.
"Don't think about it, you still have to think about the future competition, but I saw that there are quite a few guys with good strength who came to participate in the competition this time, at least seven or eight of them are at the level of a sixth-order Dan master, and even I feel that the level of two or three of them is definitely not lower than yours. Sister is now helping the Xiaoyao girl shake the field, I can't follow you, you have to be careful when you play again, don't smash it for me, it's not just you who will be embarrassed at that time, I boasted about Haikou with the Xiaoyao girl, don't bury my sister's fame in the first life. "Mei Qingzhu is a serious way.
"Don't worry, I can't guarantee anything else, but the Danding in my hand makes me full of confidence, don't forget, I have a sixth-order Danding and a seventh-order Danding, now I'm just using ordinary goods, and when it comes to the real big competition, I'll let them open their eyes, hehe!" Lu Yi smiled.
"Cut! After all, it is with foreign objects, and if you win, you can't win!" Mei Qingzhu poured a basin of cold water on Lu Yi's head.
After a quarrel between the two, Mei Qingzhu left to find the Xiaoyao Fairy, Lu Yi was curious about what kind of relationship she had with the Xiaoyao Fairy, but Mei Qingzhu never said anything, leaving him alone in the Yanzi Garden and depressed.
Time flies, in the blink of an eye, the five-day recuperation period has passed, and now, the most exciting knockout round of the Dan Array Competition has officially kicked off.
The selection of opponents in the knockout round is based on the ranking of the previous qualifiers, such as the Formation Mage side, the top 50 against the bottom 50, the first pair 100, the second pair 99, and so on. This can ensure that some strong players will hold on to the end, and some lucky ones will have nowhere to hide, which is relatively fair.
Lu Yi didn't show too much in the qualifying round, and at the moment he was playing against a fifth-order Dan master in ninth place.
