Chapter Eighty-Seven: Tied for First Place
Standing alone on the top of the mountain, he remembered his hometown, remembered his father, looked at the sea in the distance, and shouted, "Father, where are you!" Tears rolled in his eyes and flowed down the corners of his eyes. "What's wrong, missing your father?" a sweet, soft voice appeared behind him. Mo Lun hurriedly wiped away his tears, turned around and said, "Xian'er, it's okay, maybe the wind is too strong, and there is sand in your eyes." Narcissus didn't feel the presence of the wind at all, but she didn't expose Mo Lun either, and said, "When the matter here is over, I'll accompany you to find your uncle." I'm sure I'll be able to find it. After speaking, he grabbed Mo Lun's hands tightly, and Mo Lun took Narcissus in his arms, and the two of them stood on the top of the mountain for a long time.
There was the sound of footsteps from the bottom of the mountain, but the two of them were still hugging each other tightly as if no one had heard them, they were both enjoying this good time, they could feel each other's heartbeats, they could hear each other's breathing, and Mo Lun was intoxicated by this beautiful mood. Suddenly, I heard two coughing voices, "Princess, we have arrived." This was Haiwei's voice, the two of them reluctantly separated, looking at the four people who walked up from the bottom of the mountain, Haiwei walked in the front, followed by Liehero, behind was Tsunami, and finally Liehero.
Mo Lun looked at the order in which they went up the mountain, laughed, and said, "It seems that we are going to tie for the first place!" In the council hall of Hairun City, Haicheng stared at the mirror with good eyes, saw this situation, and hurriedly said: "Patriarch, they may have to tie for first place." "How is it possible to tie for first place?" the patriarch also walked in front of the mirror. I looked at the face. "Do you all think it should be tied for first place?" Judging only from the order of reaching the summit, they should be tied for first place, but from the process, the southern city of Leh should be first. The waves came over and said. "Tell me what you think. The patriarch sat down and looked at the waves and said. "Patriarch, you can also see that if it weren't for the people of Southern Leh City to get rid of the two spirit beasts, do you think that our people from Hairun City would be able to reach the top of the mountain effortlessly?" "There's some truth to what you're saying, and that's true. If it weren't for Mo Lun, Xian'er would not have reached the top of the mountain so smoothly, and they would have to fight with spirit beasts for a while. In terms of strength, the Southern Islands should be number one. The patriarch said.
Hai Cheng looked at Hai Po, and Hai Po stood up and said, "The rule we set is who gets to the top of the mountain first, and the one who takes the shortest time is the champion, but we didn't say that it depends on the process." Besides, before the start of the competition, no one knew that there were two spirit beasts whose strength had reached the middle stage of the god transformation there. "If we change the rules now, the other islands won't agree." Sea Breeze also said. The patriarch thought for a moment and said, "Okay then. Just according to the original rules, but when the results were announced. Be sure to make it clear. "Yes!" Haeden happily agreed.
Half an hour after the people from the Southern Islands and Hairun City reached the top of the mountain, Huang Fei walked up with two people, and after seeing Mo Lun, he sat down on a rock and said breathlessly: "Mo Lun, you guys are really fast, didn't I see you fell under the cliff, why are you much faster than us?" "We have been blessed by misfortune, and there is a shortcut below, so we walked in front of you." "I said big brother and brother, you guys are too fast! As soon as Mo Lun finished answering Huang Fei's words, he heard the voice of the merry. "You're not bad, you're finally able to make it to the second round. Huang Fei said with a smile. "In the last tournament on the island, if my cousin hadn't played with an injury, we would have been in the top three. Merry said.
"It doesn't matter how many people he has, he can enter the second round, and I don't know how this second round will be compared?" asked Molun. "This year's rules are different from the past, no one can guess now, and when the time comes, we will know, so let's not guess. Huang Fei said nonchalantly.
The road down the mountain was smooth sailing, and they returned to Hairun City along the way they came, and after saying goodbye to Xian'er, Mo Lun and the others did not go to the square, but chose to recover their physical strength and spiritual power in the post house, because none of them could say what the next round of competition would be and when it would start. It wasn't until the next morning that Mo Lun had just come out of the artistic conception of meditation and cultivation when he heard a knock on the door, and Mo Lun opened the door and saw Wu Ye and a few other brothers. Wu Ye clenched his fists and said, "Congratulations to the fourth brother and the elder brother for successfully entering the second round, our brother has come to see you." Mo Lun hurriedly let them into the house, poured tea for the brothers, and then said: "Thanks to the blessings of the brothers, I finally fulfilled my mission and was able to enter the second round." ”
While they were talking, the people of the inn, the elders, told them all to go to the square, there was something important to announce. When they came to the square, it was already crowded, and many of them didn't know the results of the first round, and they were still guessing there, when they heard the haiheng on the platform say, "Everyone, please be quiet!" I didn't see how much effort he used, but his voice could be heard clearly in all corners of the square. The square immediately fell silent, and some people swallowed back the rest of the words when their mouths were still half-open in the middle of their words. When Chang, a pleasant sound came from a distance, and the toy in the hand of a child fell to the ground, and the sound came far away.
"I would like to announce the results of the first round of the competition, which are tied for the first place in the Southern Islands and Hairun City, the third place in Huanghuai Island, and the fourth place in Tempest Island. I would like to explain here that the Southern Islands and Hairun City, which are tied for the first place, should be the first in the Southern Islands from the perspective of the process, but from the perspective of the competition rules, since the time it takes them to reach the top of the mountain is the same, they are tied for the first place, so I would like to explain here. Hai Cheng said unhurriedly.
Just when Haicheng's words fell, someone below began to discuss, "I heard that the Southern Islands were the first to reach Seagod Peak, but they met two spirit beasts whose strength belonged to the middle stage of the transformation of gods in the middle of the mountainside, and the three of them wasted three hours to get rid of the two spirit beasts, and then the people from Hairun City arrived, because they consumed too much spiritual power and physical strength when fighting with the spirit beasts, so they didn't get rid of the people in Hairun City, so they also got the first." "This person seems to know the inside story, and what he said is not bad at all. "Then according to you, Southern Leh should be the first, not a tie. Someone said unconvinced. "Haven't you heard that the rule is that the one who reaches the top of the mountain first is the first, no matter what you do in the middle, no one sees it, and the rule is to only look at the final result. Someone explained to the person who was not convinced just now. "If you put aside the rules, wouldn't the Southern Islands be much stronger than Hairun City?" someone drew a conclusion from their arguments.
"Now I announce the rules of the second round, the four teams that enter the second round draw lots to determine their opponents, and after the opponents are determined, each group will play three matchups, three best-of-two games, and decide the order of their play. Once you admit defeat, the other party must not make another move, otherwise the results of the game will be cancelled and handed over to the Discipline Hall, which will be punished by the Discipline Elders. Haicheng said with a serious face. Looking at the silent crowd below, Haicheng waved the sleeves of his robe, and four glittering balls appeared in the air, and the ball of light fluttered up and down in the air, changing its position at any time. "The four teams that have made it to the second round send representatives to choose your opponents. Seeing the ball of light appear in the air, Haifeng shouted to the people below. Lie Yinghao, Hai Wei, Huang Fei and Merry Fei came to the front of the stage, "The Southern Islands are selected first, then Hairun City, the third is Huanghuai Island, and finally Tempest Island." "Sea Breeze gives them the order in which they choose the ball of light.
Lie Yinghao stretched out his hand, a stream of spiritual power erupted from his hand, and the spurted spiritual power wrapped a ball of light, and then Lie Yinghao put his hand back, and a ball of light flew towards him quickly, Lie Yinghao grabbed the ball of light in his hand, and a wooden card appeared in his hand, and the number on it was "2". The others grabbed the ball of light in their hands with different techniques, and they all knew their numbers, and they all handed their numbers to Hai Feng, who raised the numbers in his hands and said loudly: "The opponents of the second round have been determined, they are ??????" He deliberately lengthened his voice, "It's South Leh City vs. Tempest Island, and Hairun City vs. Huanghuai Island!"
When Mo Lun heard the result of this match, he didn't have any expression on his face, none of these three teams was what he was willing to play against, there were narcissus in Hairun City, he had no way to make a move, and the other two teams were all his brothers, how could he bear the fratricide between brothers. But there is no way, since he participated in this competition and promised Lie Changfeng, he always has to face one. The brothers had already discussed with each other that once they matched, as long as they didn't hurt each other's lives, they would do their best. They try to avoid direct confrontation between brothers.
Lie Yinghao returned to Mo Lun's side and said, "How can we line up to defeat Tempest Island?" Mo Lun had already thought about the order of the battle when Lie Ying Hao came back, and when he asked, he said with a smile: "We only have one way to line up, and there is no other choice." Lie Hero said: "Brother, why don't you understand, Merry is your sworn brother, neither of you can meet him, then only I can fight against him, as for the direction of the wind and the windmill, you two can do it casually, no matter how desperate you are, you are not the opponent of any of them, they are all strong in the middle stage of the transformation of the gods, and you are still in the early stage of the transformation of the gods, so the key lies in the battle of the Morun brothers." When Lie Yinghao heard the words of Lie Yinghao, he also suddenly realized, and said: "Mo Lun, you can arrange it, and I will listen to you." ”
"Who is more powerful, the wind or the windmill?" asked Morun. "As far as I know, the windmills are a bit stronger. "Then hand over the windmill to me" Mo Lun listened to Lie Yinghao's words, and directly settled the opponent. (To be continued......)
