Chapter 179: Shao An's Competition
Because the top 25 rosters had to be determined in one day, the contestants had a hard time fighting. Because everyone's cultivation is basically the same, it will be very difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser, and the further back you go, the stronger the opponent's cultivation will be, and the more difficult the battle will be.
This is not only a test of a person's strength, but also a test of his ability to endure.
At the end of the first round of battles, the list of the top 50 was born.
This time, there were nine cultivators in the Mingyan Empire who were in the top fifty, and they had ten people selected in the first selection, and now the probability of promotion in the first round had reached ninety percent, which undoubtedly surprised everyone.
Luo Wujian, Zang Feng, Shao An, Sima Wushuang, and Jin Lier all advanced to the next round, and He Guang also passed because of his weak opponent. Coupled with Lin Menghan, Lian Zhiyin, and Xun Qiu, who directly advanced to the top 20, they made it to the first round of the game.
This achievement ranks first with the Kaiping Empire among the five major countries and sixteen small countries.
But you must know that at the time of the preliminary selection, there were enough eighteen people in the Kaiping Empire who passed the preliminary selection.
Because the Mingyan Empire and the Kaiping Empire tied for first place, the second place was the Tian Yuan Empire, with a total of eight people in the top fifty.
Seven people from the Ruoshui Empire entered the top fifty.
The Flame Red Empire is at the bottom of the rankings, with only six people in the top 50.
In this way, in the top 50 list, the five empires accounted for a full thirty-nine people, which was compared to the fact that the five major empires accounted for only half of the total number at the time of the preliminary selection, and it was also reflected in their advantage in elite combat effectiveness. After all, the cultivation conditions provided by the big countries are good, and the base of participants is also large, which helps them to select carefully.
For this achievement of the Mingyan Empire, Xun Qiu was also very surprised, to be exact, surprised.
And after the first round of screening, the list of the top fifty is all extraordinary cultivators, even the weakest one is also the cultivation of the Quadruple Condensation Soul Realm.
After the first round, the second round of the competition is also in full swing.
Next to the second group of competition venues, countless contestants from the Kaiping Empire had gathered at this time. Since this was their game, these people seemed extremely happy and intended to cheer for their others.
They play at home, and there is no shortage of manpower.
Looking at the excited appearance of those contestants, Hei Lei Shao An smiled: "If I win this battle, they may each have a sword and stab me to death here." After saying that, he said with a smile.
Yan Jingyue and Cheng Tao both showed a hint of strangeness, they couldn't imagine that he would still be able to laugh at this time, maybe he was cheerful by nature and didn't care much about so many things.
Zang Feng smiled: "Don't worry, if you don't have the strength to resist those people's swords after victory, you still have me." I still have a way to deal with ordinary swords. So work hard, I'm waiting to help you block the sword. After saying that, he patted him on the shoulder, with encouragement in his eyes.
Cheng Tao then walked to the sidelines and looked at the opposite side, where a group of Su Guanglu people were gathering. Since Zang Feng and Shao An both won the game against the Kaiping Empire contestants in the morning, today's game has become a gathering of rivals, and it is particularly eye-catching. Those Kaiping contestants all had unkind looks in their eyes, obviously haunted by the previous game.
"By the way, who is this Zhou Zhang on the other side?" Lin Menghan's beautiful big eyes looked around the other side and asked suspiciously.
"That Zhou Zhang was originally ranked sixth among the rookies of the Kaiping Empire, under Shang Yuhua, Su Hu, Bai Wufang, Yan Bo, and Zhang Luo, but before the Holy Tower cultivated Yan Bo and Zhang Luo, the two of them didn't know how to do it, and they came out in less than two days, but this Zhou Zhang persevered for five days, and his cultivation had reached the Sevenfold Condensation Soul Realm, surpassing Zhang Luo and Yan Bo, which was not easy to deal with. As the team leader, Cheng Tao is familiar with the characteristics of these contestants.
"I see, it looks like I'll have to show half of my skills to get through. Shao An said with a smile, and everyone was also amused by his humor.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Xun Qiu said softly: "Shao An, be careful, I feel that Zhou Zhang has a strange aura on his body, and that aura is very powerful, be careful." ”
Shao An said in a deep voice: "I understand, don't worry, wait for my good news." After speaking, he suddenly smiled, and his body shot straight into the field.
On the opposite side of the fighting platform, a young disciple slowly walked up, thinking that it was Zhou Zhang. This Zhou Zhang, dressed in green clothes and holding a long sword, quietly looked at Shao An. And Shao An also looked at him coldly, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
Zhou Zhang looked at Shao An, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "I am Zhou Zhang of the Kaiping Empire. I heard that you are the Shao An who defeated Zhu Yuncheng yesterday, today I will take a good look at your black thunder superior Gangyuan, and see if there is anything surprising, don't let me down. ”
Shao An said with a solemn look in his eyes: "I heard that Zhou Zhang practiced with swordsmanship, and Jin Gangyuan had extraordinary combat power because of his innate sword intent, and I also wanted to ask for advice, I don't know if you will disappoint me?"
Zhou Zhang's face turned cold, and he said in a gloomy voice: "You'll know right away, don't beg for mercy and be embarrassed when the time comes." After speaking, he shouted violently, and a sword was raised, accompanied by the unique aura of the golden Gangyuan, and the surrounding martial arts platforms were cut out of shallow marks.
"Hmph, pretending. Jin Lier sneered and mocked.
Xun Qiu looked at this scene, but his face was slightly dignified, this Zhou Zhang's Jin Gangyuan is logically weaker than Shao An's Black Thunder Gangyuan, but it has not been suppressed at all, it is obviously extraordinary, how it is, we will see it when the battle comes.
Shao An was not ambiguous, as soon as he turned the Dharma seal in his hand, his body suddenly formed a light black light shield flashing with a thunder arc, quietly enveloping him in it.
On the field, a big war is about to break out. On the sidelines, everyone watched the two people in the game intently.
"The green dragon explores the sea. ”
With a sneer, Zhou Zhang's body suddenly shot forward. With a swing of the long sword in his hand, countless sword shadows blurred and overlapped in the air, forming a cyan sword light that directly killed Shao An.
"Black Tiger Roar!"
On the side of his body, while Shao An's body was moving three feet horizontally, a pale black cold flame suddenly condensed in the palm of his hand, which expanded rapidly, and then turned into a black tiger with thunder flashing around his body, and rushed forward.
Rumble!
The collision caused a violent explosion, and both men retreated from the battle circle until they reached the edge of the fighting ring.
This time, the two switched directions. Shao An looked at Zhou Zhang coldly, and Shao An showed a heavy look on his face.
The first encounter, although it was a draw, the surprise in his heart was extremely obvious. After just one move, Shao An understood that there was a certain gap between his cultivation and Zhou Zhang. Because of this blow, he at least showed more than eighty percent of his strength, and looking at Zhou Zhang's indifferent appearance, he understood that he only used about seventy percent at most.
"Hmph, the power of black thunder, it seems that this is not enough. Zhou Zhang looked at Shao An with contempt, with obvious disdain in his eyes.
Shao An saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but be slightly angry in his heart, and his body flashed. The palm of his hand flew again and again, and in an instant, it converged into a dense black thunder net, enveloping Zhou Zhang in it.
Zhou Zhang sneered, the long sword flipped on its side, and a powerful momentum was emanating from his right hand, instantly permeating the entire martial arts arena.
When the thunder net approached, Zhou Zhangyin laughed, his right hand suddenly went up, and the long sword in his hand gathered a wild force full of explosions, and suddenly rushed towards the attacking thunder net.
With a loud bang, the powerful explosive force was vented everywhere, startling the onlookers on the side.
In the flying dust, two figures shot out in opposite directions, each retreating two feet away, cautiously vigilant against the other. Zhou Zhang's expression was indifferent, and he looked at Shao An who was dressed as a wolf with a calm face, and there was a hint of meaningful meaning in his eyes.
At this time, Shao An's hair was a little messy, the clothes on his chest were torn a little, his face was solemn, and he looked at Zhou Zhang indifferently.
Zhou Zhang said coldly: "I can tell the winner by looking at the next move." ”
Shao An's eyes changed slightly, knowing that Zhou Zhang's ability to attack at the gathering point was extremely strong, and the black thunder offensive with a larger range would not have an ideal effect. And when Shao An hadn't thought of any countermeasures, Zhou Zhang had already attacked with a sword again.
In just a flash, Zhou Zhang had already arrived in front of Shao An.
Shao An's face changed greatly, he couldn't imagine that the other party's speed was so fast, and even the figure was so fast that it left an afterimage in the air. When the crisis came, Shao An couldn't take care of it, and all the power of the black thunder in his body was condensed on the two arms, and the two fists were like weapons forged by black thunder, which shook Zhou Zhangsheng stiffly.
This time the fight is undoubtedly much more fierce than Fang Cai.
Bang!
With another loud bang, Shao An's body was suddenly shaken back, and after he landed, he retreated five steps in a row, and before he could stand firmly, Zhou Zhang appeared in front of him again. The blue light burst out, and the sword qi crisscrossing the sky was sandwiched with a deafening roar and powerful power, drowning Shao An in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Zhang's sword moves are as fast as lightning, and each sword is a sword qi that is extremely powerful, and it is difficult to resist.
Here, the people of the Mingyan Empire couldn't help but exclaim, seeing Shao An in danger, everyone was very worried. Xun Qiu looked at the cold look in Zhou Zhang's eyes, as well as the appreciative look in Su Guanglu's eyes, Xun Qiu also saw it in his eyes, which made him slightly angry in his heart.
Shao An's face was shocked, and he secretly hated Zhou Zhang's fierce methods. At the moment of crisis, he didn't have time to think about it, his hands were clasped in front of his chest, and he shouted in his mouth: "Black Dragon Spit Na, Thunder Borrows the Law, Open!"
When the words fell, the black thunder gang yuan in front of him instantly condensed into a black dragon head, and the black dragon's mouth opened suddenly, and a blue thunder ball spit out from the black dragon's mouth.
It was a bit strange that a dragon composed of dark energy would unleash a pure thunder attack.
Zhou Zhang didn't care too much when he saw this thunderball coming, but raised his sword and stepped forward and slashed viciously.
Looking at this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of Xun Qiu's mouth.
This week's cultivation is not weak, but his IQ is not high.
