Chapter 22: The Contest Begins
Ziyang Square is crowded with people, and it is black. Under the statue of the upright Sword Saint is the player's viewing seat, the city lord sits in the center, and the elders of the other sects sit beside the city lord like stars holding the moon.
Lu Haoxuan and Chu Xin finally managed to squeeze out of the crowd and came to the contestant viewing area.
Just as he wanted to go up, two tall soldiers blocked the way, and the two saluted: "Please show the player token before you can go up and watch the battle." ”
"Well, this ......" Lu Haoxuan was stunned, he had never heard of any player tokens?
"Hehe, brother, don't worry, City Lord Gu gave me the token a long time ago, but I forgot to practice the Qianyuan palm yesterday."
Chu Xin stepped forward and handed the two tokens to Binghan, who carefully examined and confirmed them before getting out of the way.
The two came to the stage, and Chu Xin handed Lu Haoxuan's order to Lu Haoxuan, and Lu Haoxuan tied it around his waist.
"Nephew Lu Xian, come quickly!" Seeing the two of them coming to the stage, Gu City Lord hurriedly greeted them.
Lu Haoxuan walked to City Lord Gu's side and found that the attention of the representatives of the surrounding sects had been on him.
"City Lord Gu, who is this?" Someone asked curiously, after all, there are not many people who can be treated like this by the city lord.
"Huh. This is the young city lord of Kaiyang City, the son of Lu Ying. ”
"Oh, Lu Xian's nephew is really heroic, and his aura is extraordinary!" The elders of the sect here are all old fritters.
Tie up Lu Haoxuan, but it's not so much to tie up Lu Haoxuan, it's better to show favor to the Kaiyang City Lord's Mansion.
"Seniors have praised it! I don't dare to be a shallow learner, I don't dare to be it! Lu Haoxuan said.
He was born in the City Lord's Mansion, of course, he knew their purpose, but the etiquette was still to be thoughtful.
The salute rang out three times, and the hour had come.
Under the leadership of City Lord Gu, everyone went up to the statue of the Ziyang Sword Saint to worship.
After a while, Lu Haoxuan stepped forward to worship, but as soon as he arrived in front of the statue, the array pill in his arms suddenly vibrate, but when Lu Haoxuan sensed it, did he find anything abnormal.
Looking at the magnificent statue, it is hard to imagine how the craftsman carved it.
I can't imagine the demeanor of the peerless powerhouse of that golden age.
"Maybe this array of pills has something to do with the Ziyang Sword Saint. When the time comes, we will find out when the Purple Sun Realm opens. Lu Haoxuan thought to himself.
The worship was quickly completed, and then it was time for the most exciting jousting time.
Many young leaders in Ziyang City are gearing up and eager to try.
They all want to show their strength at this once-in-a-decade event, and it would be better if they could capture the hearts of beauties.
There is a five-sided ring in the middle of the square, and the lord of the castle will divide all the players into five groups.
There are about twenty people in each of the five-party rings, and the four people who are still standing in the ring will advance to the next round of battles.
And the ranking is discharged, and the top five can be rewarded.
The first place will get a seventh-rank divine soldier, the second and third will get a sixth-rank divine soldier, and the fourth or fifth place will get a fifth-grade divine soldier.
This is definitely a big deal, you must know that the divine soldiers above the fifth grade are not easy to buy.
It is also a scarce resource in the major sects of Ziyang City, and it is not something that ordinary people can get.
So when they learned that the top prizes were so rich, many people's eyes lit up with greed.
A referee from the Yudan Realm said some corresponding rules, which were nothing more than things like not to kill the dead, and to value peace.
The referee then began to organize the draw of lots for grouping.
Fortunately, Lu Haoxuan and Chu Xin both drew three and were assigned to a group.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then flew to stand in the corner of the ring.
Under the referee's order, a scuffle began.
The air was suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the eyes kept clashing, and the leaders of all parties did not want to lose their momentum.
Obviously, there are a lot of leaders in the world who have already made friends in advance before the competition.
So there were several factions in this ring, and Lu Haoxuan, the duo, was instantly targeted by others.
Although the strength is good, after all, the number of people is the smallest.
Moreover, the leaders of all parties present are all key figures in the sect, so naturally they will not back down because of Lu Haoxuan's identity.
On the contrary, because they wanted to be in the limelight, everyone wanted to meet Lu Haoxuan and the others.
"Whoosh"
A person flies forward, and this person opens the Pulse Realm Triple Heaven, which can be regarded as decent in this group.
"Qianyuan Palm!" Chu Xin used the Qianyuan palm to face the enemy, and at this time, Lu Haoxuan picked up the piccolo and leaned it against his mouth, and the sound of the flute was clear.
Although it has just been mastered for a short time, it is still a first glimpse of the door, and it has a certain power, but it is better than the consumption.
The man was stunned by Chu Xin's palm, fell out of the ring, and was eliminated.
"Pretty, crisp and clean!"
"It is worthy of being a genius who came out of Kaiyang City, and it is terrifying!"
"I heard that this Lu Haoxuan caused eight visions when he was born, which can be said to be unparalleled in the world!"
"What? Don't be kidding, even if Fan Yanxi, the young sect leader of the Fengyan Sect, was born and triggered a vision. ”
"But after all, I'm still too young, I don't know if I can compete with Murong Ke and Monk Xuanming!"
Seeing Lu Haoxuan and Chu Xin's sharp posture on stage, the audience talked a lot, and many people were amazed by the tacit cooperation between Lu Haoxuan and Chu Xin.
"Dare to hurt my junior brother! Damn it. ”
Several people dressed in the same clothes as the sect disciples who had been shot down before shouted angrily.
Several people stepped forward, and the release of various attacks was dazzling, but Lu Haoxuan did not panic at all.
Chu Xin's domineering qi leaked out, and the true yuan diffused to form a protective barrier in front of Lu Haoxuan.
The flute sound suddenly changed, and more than ten sword qi flew out in the melody.
The sword qi condensed by the True Yuan collided with the dazzling attacks, and only one or two attacks broke through the flying sound and landed on Chu Xin's True Yuan barrier.
However, through the offset of sword qi, it no longer has its original power, and it is easily blocked.
"Isn't it too much for you to bully too much, but that's the end of it!"
Lu Haoxuan played "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix", everyone on the stage was slightly stunned, and then they came to their senses, realizing that this was in the ring, and hurriedly defended but played, and everyone was hit by the sword qi.
"Poof!"
The people who wanted to take revenge before were also the most seriously injured because they were standing in the front, and their skin was cut open by the sword qi, and blood spurted from their mouths.
The people behind them didn't feel much better, and many of them were also slightly or severely injured by the sword qi.
Immediately, more than a dozen people fell down and lost their combat effectiveness, and only two masters of the Fifth Heaven of the Pulse Clearing Realm woke up faster and hurriedly defended before they could prevent it.
"Hey, there are only four referees, won't you pronounce the verdict?" Lu Haoxuan said lazily, and stretched his waist.
"Uh...... Oh, and the winners and losers of the three districts have been decided. "The referee obviously didn't react, after all, it ended too quickly.
At the same time, District I.
Facing the leaders of all parties who came hand in hand, Murong Ke unhurriedly put his hand on the hilt of the sword.
looked at the people in front of him playfully, and then smiled slightly.
A sword light swept through, as if the sun in the sky had lost its brilliance.
"Qingyang Slash!"
The name of this move was shouted out by Murong Ke.
"What?"
"I'm not mistaken, Qingyang Slash, a powerful blow that can only be performed by the Qingyang Sword Technique."
"At such an age, he can reach Dacheng, and this son is destined to be extraordinary in the future!"
Today's shocking slash will definitely go down in history, and his name of Murong Ke will also be sung in Ziyang City for generations.
On the other side of the four-zone ring, Monk Xuanming stood majestically on the side of the ring.
I saw a flash of golden light, which made people's eyes flicker, and I couldn't help but close my eyes.
When his eyes fell on the ring again, only Monk Xuanming was left standing on it.
The audience instantly caused an uproar, because no one noticed how Xuan Ming won.
"Amitabha, don't fight, don't fight, after all, the fewer people the better."
Monk Xuanming looked at the contestants in the ring, not only said, but also touched his bare head as he spoke.
"The winners and losers of the three districts have been divided, and four people have advanced!" The referee of the third district announced.
"The winner of the first district has been divided, and one person has advanced!"
"The winners and losers of the four districts have been divided, and one person has advanced!"
Only one person in District 1 and District 4 were promoted, but everyone was not too surprised, after all, District 1 and District 4 were the areas where Xuan Ming and Murong Ke were located, so it was reasonable that only one person would advance.
"The winners and losers in the second district have been divided, and three people have advanced!"
"The winners and losers of the five districts have been divided, and the amount is ...... Zero people made the cut. "The fifth district was shaved bald, and it was obvious that the players were seriously injured at the same time, so no one advanced.
In the end, all the rings were decided, but only nine people advanced in the end, and one person in a group of two or two had a bye.
Lu Haoxuan thought to himself: I won't have a bye......
It can be said: "The heroes are in the dark, and the phoenix is even!" ”
