After looking at the list for a while, Wang Xiao asked suspiciously: "Why do I see that the most powerful one above is only the fourth place in the last session? Why are they not in the first and second places in the last session? Are they deliberately giving up their positions?"

Liu Zhenwu laughed and said: "Wang Xiao, I'm afraid you have forgotten, the role of this young Fengming is to select disciples with high qualifications to enter the main sect." Last time, there were already a lot of people who had already been elected to the Shesheng Sect and the Qinglian Sect, and the first and second places in the last session, Chu Binyu of the Yunmeng Sect and Li Zisheng of the Dedication Sect respectively, have been favored by the Shesheng Sect and the Qinglian Sect and brought back to the main sect. Moreover, the reason why the young phoenix is called the 'young phoenix' is that only young disciples can participate, but anyone over the age of thirty is not allowed to participate again. Moreover, no matter which sect the disciples are, they can only participate in this grand event three times at most. Therefore, generally speaking, for the sake of the reputation of the sect, it is often necessary for one's own disciples to participate after the age of twenty. In this way, you can participate in three editions, and you can accumulate experience in the first two editions and achieve good results in the last one. ”

Wang Xiao was puzzled: "Since you usually participate after the age of twenty, how can you say that you participated at the age of sixteen, senior brother?"

Liu Zhenwu was stunned, his face suddenly turned red, and then he said angrily: "What do you care about so much, anyway, I can already enter the top ten for the first time I participate, you don't care how old I am to participate!"

Seeing Liu Zhenwu's expression, Wang Xiao was even more happy: "Hehe, senior brother, it seems that there is a story! By the way, second senior brother, do you know what the matter is?"

Zhou Zhenggang said honestly: "Although I entered the door only half a year later than Senior Brother, I only knew how to practice hard at the beginning, and I really don't know why Senior Brother would participate in that session of Young Fengming." ”

Wang smiled and wondered, "Could it be that we have only a few senior brothers in our Lotus Root Hall for so many years?"

Liu Mingfeng said with a smile: "How is it possible? There are several senior brothers who have already left the school, and those who were selected into the Qinglian Sect went to the Qinglian Sect, so now they are respected by Senior Brother Liu." ”

I see. A disciple who has already graduated from the school is equivalent to a graduate, and although it still belongs to the "Lotus Root Hall Graduate", it is no longer in the category of "current students". So at present, the senior brother of Liangentang is Liu Zhenwu.

If Liu Zhenwu also graduated one day, then the senior brother would be Zhou Zhenggang.

However, it seems that Zhou Zhenggang and Liu Zhenwu should belong to the "same class", so if Liu Zhenwu graduates, most of them are Zhou Zhenggang and Liu Mingfeng, and Lu Fuzhong is also about to graduate. Then as long as the Lotus Root Hall accepts other disciples, it will be Wang Xiao's turn to be a senior brother at that time.

Wang Xiao fantasized about his majesty as a senior brother, and imagined it.

Liu Zhenwu was unhappy, but when he saw that Wang Xiao was still showing a smile at this time, he was even more unhappy, and said coldly: "Wang Xiao, what do you kid think! Cough, be serious, now I'll tell you the basic rules of the young phoenix, you listen to me well!"

Wang Xiao hurriedly gathered his thoughts: "Senior brother, please speak, junior brother listen!"

Liu Zhenwu nodded and began to come one by one.

This young phoenix is divided into preliminary and semi-finals.

There are a total of twenty-four large and small sects in Chu County. According to the rules of Xiao Fengming, each sect is eligible to send three disciples to participate. Only three can be sent out. Whether it is the Yunmeng Sect, the boss of Chu County, or the Zhanghua Sect, which is at the bottom of the cultivation realm of Chu County, there are only three places, which is not too much.

The preliminary round is divided into six fields, and each field is divided into the winner's group and the loser's group after a round of competition. Then the lower bracket has a chance to play again, and then the top two in the upper bracket will go straight to the semi-finals. The third and fourth places in the upper bracket will be challenged against the first and second places in the lower bracket. If the top two teams in the lower bracket can beat the third and fourth places in the upper bracket, they can also enter the semi-finals. If they lose, the third and fourth places in the upper bracket will enter the semi-finals.

So generally, there are twenty-four in total who can enter the semi-finals. But this is not for all the participants in the semi-finals.

In the last session, Xiao Fengming entered the final top eight, if he participates again, he can directly enter the semi-finals without going through the preliminary round. It is considered to be a seeded player.

If there are already teachers in the top eight, or those who are over 30 years old and have participated in more than three competitions and have lost the qualification to participate in the young phoenix, then they will be selected from the semi-finals and not in the top eight according to the previous ranking, in short, eight seeded players will be selected in the end. Together with the twenty-four disciples who were decided in the preliminary round, the thirty-two competition disciples formed the semi-finals.

Then there are the top 32 into the top 16, the top 16 into the top eight, the eight into the fourth, the semi-finals and the final.

Of course, those who can finally enter the top eight are often only disciples of a few major sects. To be precise, often the first four of Xiao Fengming are covered by the Yunmeng Sect and the Dedication Gate every time, which is the first month near the water. Occasionally, there can be a Lotus Root Hall Heavenly Sect or something to enter, but there are not many opportunities like this, unless the Dedication Sect and the Yunmeng Sect meet too early.

In fact, for the average small sect, it is not easy to enter the semifinals. As long as you can make it to the semifinals, it will be a big victory. It's a pity that in fact, most of the people who can enter the semifinals are the seven major sects, including Liangentang. Other small sects need a certain amount of luck to enter the semifinals.

In fact, this young Fengming is very important when it comes to luck. If you are unlucky, even if you are at the peak of the middle of the human rank, you may not even be able to enter the rematch.

Although in order to avoid the early encounter between the strong and the strong, the promising disciples were defeated very early, the organizers of Xiao Fengming had already made many rules. For example, the top eight in the previous session will directly enter the semi-finals, and for example, the participating disciples in the preliminary round can come back from the loser's bracket. But if you are really unlucky, it is not uncommon to meet two masters in a row and not even make it to the rematch in the end. Fortunately, Xiao Fengming can participate three times, even if he declines, it is difficult to meet a master three times.

Of course, it really decays like that...... It's also a kind of strength.

As an event like a sports meeting, there are naturally judges or judges.

The referees who served as the referees of the rematch of the young phoenix were the envoys sent by the three major sects—the Holy Words Sect, the Shesheng Sect, and the Qinglian Sect, and the elders selected by the Yunmeng Sect.

In fact, the greatest significance of the existence of Xiao Fengming is to select disciples for the three major sects. Even if they are not affiliated sects of the three major sects, as long as they can achieve good results in the young phoenix song, they will have the opportunity to be favored by the three major sects and be selected to become a disciple of the three major sects. Of course, the Yunmeng Sect will also select some to recommend to the Yunmengze Sect. Although the total strength of the Yunmeng Sect is not as good as that of the three major sects, after all, it is also the leader in Chu County.

The Shura world has been at war for many years, and the pursuit of power is not a wrong thing. Therefore, although it is very important to respect teachers and respect the Tao, unlike ancient China on earth, there are not many differences between sects.

If a disciple of the Heavenly Doctrine Sect is favored by the Sacred Word Sect and becomes a disciple of the Sacred Word Sect, it does not mean that he has betrayed the Heavenly Doctrine, but it is only equivalent to studying abroad or going abroad for further study or something. As long as he saw that the master who had been in the Heavenly Sect before still shouted out to the master and still treated him with courtesy, it would be enough.

As for the young head of the dedicated sect or something, he has been favored by the Shesheng Sect, and when the time comes, even if he goes to "further study", after graduating from the Shesheng Sect, he will naturally be able to come back to be the next head. The premise is that the techniques learned in the Shesheng Sect cannot be passed on at will, even if you see a good seedling, you must report to the sect.

Of course, the three major sects choose to be close to their own sect when they choose their own sects. For example, in addition to accepting the disciples of the Silent Sect, the Shengyan Sect will generally only accept the disciples of the Tianli Sect, the Reward the Good and the Punish the Evil Sect, and the disciples of the Chongxu Sect, and most of them will not accept the disciples of the Lotus Root Hall, Yunmeng Sect, Li Ge Hall and other sects. And the direction in which the Blue Lotus Sect chose its disciples was naturally the opposite of that of the Holy Words Sect. Therefore, in Chu County, the Yunmeng Sect is friendly with the Lotus Root Sect, and the Dedication Sect is friendly with the Buyu Sect, the Tianli Sect, and the Suffering Sect.

After introducing the general situation of Xia Xiao Fengming, Liu Zhenwu scratched his head: "These people on the list, I am familiar with the ones who entered the semi-finals last time, and most of these people have directly entered the semi-finals this time, such as Meng Ziyao...... I will definitely defeat him this time!" Speaking of this, Liu Zhenwu suddenly looked angry, and his face was not angry.

Lu Fuzhong explained in a low voice: "In the last session of Xiao Fengming, the senior brother was eliminated by Mencius Yao. ”

Liu Zhenwu shouted: "Whatever was eliminated by him, it was his good luck! Hmph, my flying general broke the army at that time, and he had not yet trained to the state of unity of people and generals, so he was broken by his 'do nothing, and did not want to do what he wanted'! This time, no matter what trick he makes, I will definitely defeat him!"

After shouting for a while, Liu Zhenwu still sorted out the above lists and cleared the names of those who would still participate in the preliminary round.

These opponents from famous families are the most dangerous if they encounter them in the preliminary round. If you are accidentally eliminated by these people in the preliminary round, then Liangentang's face will be lost.

Of course, the only one who is really dangerous is Wang Xiao, this time Xiao Fengming and Liu Zhenwu are seeded players. And Zhou Zhenggang is at the top of the human rank, so it is impossible to lose in the preliminary round. Therefore, what really needs to be paid attention to is only Wang Xiao, who can't use the power of the Demon Control Sect, can't use the Demon Pill, and can't use the new poem.

The greatest skill of the demon master is to drive monsters, but Wang Xiao didn't dare to summon Lao Hei to help in front of everyone, especially when there was the existence of the Tianli Sect.

At this time, Wang Xiao's actual combat ability is actually a small master, if it is a battle of life and death, Wang Xiao is even above Liu Zhenwu, because Lao Hei's strength can be counted in Wang Xiao's strength. After all, the hundred-year-old demon and the old black are Wang Xiao's strongest strength. However, under many restrictions, among the three Lotus Root Hall disciples who participated in the Young Phoenix Ming at this time, Wang Xiao was the most dangerous.

Of course, this danger does not mean that life is at risk, but it is a matter of face and honor. If you can't even make it to the rematch, then you will really be embarrassed and thrown home. Not only did Wang Xiao lose his own face, but also advocated that Wang Xiao replace Liu Mingfeng and Lu Fu to participate in Xiao Fengming's master and sister. This is the most difficult thing for Wang Xiao to accept.

After removing the six people who directly entered the semi-finals (in addition to Liu Zhenwu in the top eight of the last session, there was also a disciple of the Chongxu faction, who was not on the list), and there were still twelve people who may have met in the preliminary round.

These twelve people are: Zhang Sheng of the Dedication Sect, Chu Yihui and Qu Shengyu of the Yunmeng Sect, Yang Wude and Yang Yongqing of the Tianli Sect, Su Xiaoyue and Yang Si of the Guisheng Sect, Liu Junjie of the Reward and Punishment of the Evil Sect, Qi Shima, and then the three of the Buyu Sect.

And Meng Ziyao, Meng Shiwen and Liu Zhenwu and other eight people will directly enter the semifinals, so they will not meet in the preliminary round.

In addition to these people, there are actually some young masters in Chu County, but in general, it is difficult for the disciples of other sects to pose any threat to Wang Xiao.

In fact, the things on this small note are not very detailed, after all, the power of Liangentang in Chu County is not very large, so a lot of information is not accurate. Liu Zhenwu immediately made a decision, and simply went separately to collect the intelligence of these opponents now, and then put it together tomorrow.

Among these six major sects, the Yunmeng Sect and the Lotus Root Hall have always been good friends and are very familiar with each other, so there is no need to go out of their way to investigate. Then there were five sects left, and the five brothers and sisters acted separately, and one person went to collect the intelligence of one sect.

Everyone applauded this decision, Zhou Zhenggang thought about it, and said with a smile: "Well, I'm quite interested in that Guisheng Sect, so let me investigate them." ”

This choice made the other brothers and sisters admire, because among these sects, the most low-key one on weekdays was the Guisheng Sect. Therefore, the information of the Guisheng Sect is the most difficult. Zhou Zhenggang chose Guishengzong, obviously picking the most tiring job.

Liu Mingfeng finished copying a small notebook and said indifferently: "I usually have a friendship with a disciple of the Tianli Sect, so let me check the information of those two Yang brothers." ”

Lu Fu smiled and said: "There are several properties in the heart of the door, and there are still some connections with my family, just let me ask." "As the second largest sect in Chu County, this dedication sect is naturally not only the power of the cultivation realm, but also the power of the secular realm. Naturally, there are many industries, and Lu Fuzhong's father is a big businessman, so he naturally has some friends with him.

Liu Zhenwu chose the Silent Sect. It seems that Liu Zhenwu is disdainful of Huang Ziwen on the surface, but he actually cares a lot.

So in the end, what was left for Wang Xiao was to reward the good and punish the evil.

Rewarding the good and punishing the evil? If this sect can really do this, it is really an upright and righteous sect!
