In fact, although Thousand Phantoms likes darkness, he prefers to take the dark space into his own hands. And although he couldn't see the Shadow Blade, he clearly knew that the Shadow Blade must be hiding somewhere and quietly observing him.

Good at seizing opportunities that can be seized by a qiē, this is the survival experience that Thousand Phantoms have learned after several deaths. So Wu Jiechao is dead, Che Fei is dead, but he himself is getting better and better.

......

"How many points do you have now?"

Having eliminated the last of the contestants who had chased them, the quagmire swamp seemed to have become deserted. In the past, when he was in the dense forest, he would find a contestant when he walked a few steps, but now after a long time, Ji Chen did not find the breath of the contestant nearby.

"196 points. Stone said with a little excitement.

"56 points. This point has exceeded Bai Xiangtang's expectations, so despite the difference of more than 100 points, Bai Xiangtang still seems very happy.

"What about you?" Ji Chen looked at the others around him again.

"15 points. ”

"9 points. ”

A contestant with a red silk arm said in frustration: "It seems that only my lowest is 5 points." The guy sighed helplessly and hung his head in frustration.

"It's okay, I'll try hard next time. The stone went over and patted him on the shoulder, a word of comfort. For a contestant who didn't even have a fraction of him, this downfall made Stone inevitably feel sympathy.

"I'm afraid there won't be such a good opportunity next time. Instead of letting him come out of his loss, the stone made him look more and more depressed.

This sentence made everyone nod in unison, and an opportunity like this is simply hard to come by. After so many years of the battle of the inner gate, the current quagmire and swamp will only happen because of a single epoch. Seeing the people around him stand out one by one, but they are standing still, this obvious contrast is far more vivid than other people's children, and it also makes people's confidence in themselves shaken.

"Actually, you don't have a chance. Just when everyone didn't know how to comfort him, Ji Chen pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "Judging from this period of time, the number of participants in the quagmire swamp is about 800 people, and we have monopolized 80% of the points, and there are still more than 100 people left in the quagmire swamp, and their points will not be too many, and the contestants with 5 points are even more minority." If you divide the more than 100 points equally, you will find that the number of people who survive is less than half of the required number of people. According to the old rules, the quagmire swamp should be closed soon, so you still have a chance to qualify. ”

"Really?" he raised his head and looked at Ji Chen nervously.

These words may not be convincing enough from others, but when they came out of Ji Chen's mouth, the contestants who were still depressed immediately felt that they saw hope again.

"If my judgment is correct, I believe it will not be long before the quagmire and swamp will close. Ji Chen smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "So you don't need to be lost now, just stare at your number plate." If your numbered plate appears to be shining when the quagmire is closed, congratulations, you're on the cut. ”

As soon as Ji Chen's words fell, the contestants in the quagmire swamp with red silk in their hands lit up one after another, and the number plate marked with their race number rotated around the number plate with a yellow-colored light.

"Really, I really qualified. ”

This guy's heart finally fell into his stomach, and he yelled with joy. Originally, Ji Chen didn't think that qualifying was something to boast about, but he suddenly saw a long-lost passion from this jubilant guy.

Before everyone's excitement had time to calm down, the light under their feet had already appeared. In a moment's effort, all the people in the quagmire swamp were heard. Ji Chen counted carefully, only to find that the original worry was really redundant. Because the number of people who survived the entire quagmire swamp was less than 50.

Those who were apprehensive in the quagmire swamp finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ji Chen, thank you. If it weren't for you, maybe I wouldn't have been able to make the cut this time. ”

Several contestants with red silk on their arms around Ji Chen nodded after hearing this, if it weren't for their speed and rushing in front, they became teammates with Ji Chen by chance, and now they would definitely not be among the 50 people.

"We're all reciprocal and hopefully we'll be teammates in Game 2. ”

The second game of the Battle of the Inner Gate will divide all the players who have previously advanced into a desolate secret realm. Although the area of the Flood Desolate Secret Realm is vast, and the way to harvest points this time is mainly to destroy demonic beasts, who can know that the other players who have advanced will not become a huge team because of sects and friends.

"Definitely. Someone said hopefully.

"I'm not worried about the second game. Bai Xiangtang said with a smile: "In the second game, if we are lucky, we can also become teammates if the distance is relatively close." But the third personal competition can't be tricked, if anyone is against Ji Chen, I'm afraid it's too late to cry. ”

In the face of everyone's compliments, Ji Chen shook his head very calmly: "Even I don't dare to say that I can rush all the way to the first place in the third game, not to mention those contestants who don't know but hide their strength, just a few friends around me are enough of a headache." ”

This is not Ji Chen's deliberate weakness. Not to mention that Fan Yingli has an immortal weapon in her hand, her body is enough to give people a headache, even Li Bojun and Xu Yaoting are enough for him to drink a pot.

"Is there anyone better than you?" exclaimed the contestants with a headache.

"There are more people who are better than me. Ji Chen smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Only by turning pressure into motivation will people not stagnate." No matter how powerful others are, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can also defeat them. There is no one in this continent who is the first in the world. ”

Ji Chen's serious and proud voice lifted the spirits of many people. Yes, as long as you are willing to work hard, there will be hope. Even if he can't compete with these masters, he will continue to improve, so that he will not be surpassed by those juniors, and he will not even have the power to fight back.

"Ji Chen, I heard that you are from Tianya Acacia Pavilion?" Bai Xiangtang was not as excited as others, taking advantage of the joy that everyone was quiet in the promotion, Bai Xiangtang whispered: "Is Tianya Acacia Pavilion still recruiting people now?"

"What, do you have an idea?" Ji Chen looked at Bai Xiangtang curiously. He should have a sect in the outer gate, otherwise it would be impossible to participate in the battle of the inner gate. It's just that turning one's back on the teacher at this time will inevitably make people look down on it.

Bai Xiangtang saw a suspicious look flashing in Ji Chen's eyes, and immediately understood that Ji Chen was thinking badly, and hurriedly explained: "It's not me, it's a friend of mine." She has physical problems and has never been suitable for cultivation. I've heard that the people in the Acacia Pavilion are all strange people, and they may be helpful to her. Saying that, Bai Xiangtang paused and continued: "I wanted her to ask to see Senior Sister Jiuye before, but I was worried that it would be too abrupt. Okay now, maybe you can help with a referral. ”

"Okay, yes, after the battle of the inner gate, you ......"

The two were talking, but they saw the stone walking out of the side angrily, just when Ji Chen was surprised by the stone's move, he saw the stone angrily blocking in front of a person, and shouted: "Mo Yu Arrow, where do you want to go?"

"Didn't want to go anywhere, just to find a friend. ”

"Friend?" Shi grabbed Mo Yu's shirt and said with a sneer: "People like you also have friends? ”

"Stone, what's wrong? Why are you two arguing?"

Ji Chen smiled and lightly tapped on the stone's arm, and the stone arm let go of the hand holding Mo Yu's arrow's coat as soon as it was numb, which also made the stone quite puzzled by Ji Chen's actions: "Ji Chen, you are such a smart person, you can't see that this guy deliberately let us divert the pursuers so that he could escape by himself when he was in the quagmire swamp before, right?"

"Stone, have you thought about it?" Ji Chen smiled disapprovingly, and said: "At the beginning, everyone decided to run separately, and we didn't discuss how to run beforehand, so it was reasonable for Mo Yujian to see that he ran in the same direction as us, and then reversed the direction. How long have we known Mo Yu Arrow, I believe that Mo Yu Arrow is not such a person, how can he be a timid villain who abandons his friends, so you must be thinking too much. ”

In the first half of the sentence, Mo Yujian kept nodding in agreement, and when he heard the second half of the sentence, Mo Yujian's face became very ugly, especially the sentence that Ji Chen ended at the end, hearing Mo Yujian's ears was like someone had uncovered the fig leaf in public. If it weren't for Ji Chen's explanation being very serious, Mo Yujian would almost have thought that Ji Chen was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.

"Ji Chen, you ......"

"Okay stone, we're all friends. Ji Chen smiled and stopped the stone from continuing, and said, "If there is any misunderstanding, it would be good to explain it clearly, and we will need to work together in the second game after that." ”

"Teaming up with these people, I'm afraid we don't even have any hope of qualifying. Shi snorted dissatisfiedly, and what did he want to say Seeing Mo Yu Arrow looking at him gloomily, Shi opened his mouth and swallowed the words back.

"That's right. Ji Chen smiled and nodded: "Everyone is friends, a little misunderstanding ......" Ji Chen said, and suddenly felt a tremor in his body for no reason. This sudden cold wind was like someone lying on the back of his neck blowing cold wind, which made him uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?" the stone asked, noticing Ji Chen's anomaly.

Ji Chen shook his head, looked around, and said, "Maybe I just came out of the secret realm, and I'm just a little uncomfortable." It just so happens that Mo Yu Arrow has also come out of the secret realm, so let's discuss how to contact in the second game. ”

"I don't ......"

The stone was reluctant to continue to team up with Mo Yu Arrow, but Ji Chen smiled and pulled the stone towards Bai Xiangtang's side.

The Mo Yu arrow that followed behind him stared at the reluctant stone, and the cruelty in his eyes flashed.
