Chapter 1578: The Last Opponent

"Lord of the city, is this son really that powerful?"

"Champion's Choice? You have to have a landslide advantage. I think these geniuses have a lot of qualifications that will not lose to him. ”

"I didn't expect the city lord to speak so highly of this son!"

Xie Wuxian waved his hand: "Do any of you know the specific information of this son?"

One of the staff members inquired and said, "This son only entered the City of Sin not long ago, and there were several skirmishes with the city guards during this time. By the way, he also did a few good deeds and did a few good deeds. ”

"Good deeds?" everyone was stunned.

In the city of sin, people only do evil, and doing good is really rare. Otherwise, it cannot be called a city of iniquity.

"Yes, not long after entering the City of Sin, this son came to the rescue of a middle-aged monk who was poisoned and was on the verge of death. ”

Later, he clashed with the city guards, and after resolving the conflict, he easily rescued the wife of one of the city guards. ”

This news was originally not much important information for the high-level officials of the City Lord's Mansion. So no one paid attention to it earlier.

However, as Jiang Chen's performance in the selection competition is getting better and better, this information is also constantly being excavated, and everyone's curiosity is also constantly being excavated.

Even Xie Wuxian was also a little aroused.

"Which commander of the city guards?"

"The commander of the third army, the eleventh team, whose name is Yongpeng. ”

"What is the specific situation, is there accurate information in the intelligence?" Xie Wuxian's interest was obviously hooked.

The intelligence ability of the City Lord's Mansion is very rebellious. This matter, since it has been investigated, naturally has detailed details.

Soon, the staff member told the specific details of the information, and added: "This Yongpeng's wife is suffering from a strange disease, and he invited many Dandi to treat his wife. However, none of them were able to find out the cause of his wife's illness. I don't know why this Yongpeng would invite a strange young man to go for treatment, but as a result, he hit it crookedly!"

Xie Wuxian was speechless for a long time: "This young man is not simple. ”

"Yes, in that case, no one in a normal person would have thought that his wife's illness was actually related to his cultivation. It's no wonder that most Dandi can't diagnose it. ”

"So, this young boy is really a good seedling. ”

"Lord of the City, we really picked up a treasure in this selection?"

Xie Wusheng smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that this selection is the request of Lord Zongshou." The selected geniuses are nominally enshrined in the City Lord's Mansion, but in fact, they will eventually have to be handed over to the Chief Shou to arrange and deal with. ”

Hearing Xie Wuxian say this, everyone's eyes showed envy.

"City Lord, in this way, aren't these guys who have selected people lucky?

"There must be a reason why Lord Mamori attaches so much importance to it. Perhaps, there is a great chance waiting for these lucky guys!"

For the people of Dongyan Island, it doesn't matter how high you cultivate. Basically, their first dream in life is nothing else, freedom.

They are completely different from the people outside, they are not born with freedom, so restoring freedom is an obsession in the hearts of everyone on Dongyan Island.

These staff, in terms of status and cultivation, are much stronger than these participating geniuses.

However, when they heard that these lucky contestants might be given freedom by the chief keeper, they were inevitably a little envious and jealous in their hearts.

Xie Wuxian said lightly: "I can't guess the intention of Lord Shou." If they were to be given freedom, they would have to pay a price. Freedom is not a pie-in-the-sky thing. You don't have to be too envious. ”

After thinking about it carefully, the staff members also felt that this was the truth.

Lord Commander-in-Chief has been in control of Dongyan Island for so many years, when did he give anyone freedom for no reason? There is no such thing as a free lunch.

If you want to be free, chance is important, but your own strength and luck are also very important.

If you don't have that strength, even if you encounter an opportunity, you won't be able to catch it at all.

......

The knockout rounds continue to be in full swing.

As the knockout rounds progressed, the battle became significantly more intense. Sixty-four people fought against each other before, and the battle situation was over.

Now it's the top 32, competing for the sixteen-man list.

The scene of this battle is obviously much crazier. Don't look at Jiang Chen, he won more easily before. But in most of the ring fights, the strength of the two is comparable, the battle situation is very tragic, and there is not too much overwhelming advantage.

The more you get to the end, the less likely it is that an overwhelming advantage will occur.

Although Jiang Chen watched the battle, his mood of watching the battle did not fluctuate too much because of the evolution of the battle situation, and at this point, he was able to face it calmly.

"And then there's the final round, and that's where the quarterfinals are born. I only need one more win to come out of this elite race. ”

Jiang Chen thought of this, and suddenly, his gaze moved slightly, shooting towards a certain place in this hall. His gaze swept like a dragonfly, and then he looked away.

Jiang Chen could basically be sure that the city lord must be in a certain corner, watching their battle the whole time.

In the second round of the knockout round, after a tragic duel, all 16 groups of duels were finally completed.

Sixteen were eliminated and sixteen winners were decided.

"The two rounds are over, and now, the sixteen of you have qualified for the final competition. Half of you will be the lucky ones of this selection and will receive the title of Enshrinement in the City Lord's Mansion. You will enjoy the high-class treatment of the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"It's still two hours to rest. Two hours later, the third round of competition, the final round, will officially begin!"

The time to rest is still two hours, which is very urgent.

Especially after two rounds of fighting, the consumption of many people is very strict. In this case, the two-hour break is even more urgent.

At this time, all the contestants who had consumed too much would not spare any resources at all, and they kept escaping the elixir that restored their strength and energy and stuffed it into their mouths.

It's all come to this, and there is only one step left before the final victory.

This is only one step away, no one wants to give up, everyone wants to be the one who has the last laugh.

Jiang Chen is now a relatively relaxed one. Because, he has two consecutive knockout matches, and he can't talk about much consumption.

Although the second battle was more complicated than the first battle, it did not pose much of a test and threat to Jiang Chen.

At this moment, at least half of the other fifteen people were praying in their hearts, praying that they would fight one last time and not meet Jiang Chen.

Obviously, Jiang Chen's performance has psychologically shocked these winners.

Two hours flew by.

The person in charge smiled slightly: "Okay, time is pressing." I'd like to give you more time off, but that's the rule. I hope you're in shape!"

"Now, it's the final round of the showdown. You know better than anyone what the winner of this round means. Alright, now let's start renumbering and playing against the draw!"

Each round of duels will be renumbered to avoid confusion.

Now, there are only sixteen people left, and only sixteen numbers are needed. This time, Jiang Chen's number is six.

And the opponent he drew was No. 9!

"Tsk, it's the two of them, thank goodness!"

"Haha, this is a battle between dragons and tigers, great. All of a sudden, it lightens the burden on other people. ”

It turned out that the No. 9 drawn by Jiang Chen, in the previous two rounds of elimination, was also a very strong deposit. In the first round, he directly killed his opponent in seconds, and in the second round, he knocked his opponent out of the ring.

This person and Jiang Chen are the three or four most popular candidates.

Now, he and Jiang Chen are pumped together, and the strong encounter is undoubtedly a relief to others. This kind of duel between the strong and the strong is equivalent to making everyone lose the two most terrible opponents at once. For the most people, it is undoubtedly the biggest piece of good news.

After that person drew Jiang Chen, his cold and arrogant gaze also looked at Jiang Chen a few times, obviously, when he drew an opponent like Jiang Chen, no matter how proud he was, he had to fight with his spirit.

Jiang Chen faced the man's scrutinizing gaze, but his expression was indifferent.

He had also noticed this person before, and if he remembered correctly, this person was called Su Hong. A body of combat effectiveness, unfathomable.

In the previous two levels, this person did not use all his strength.

Therefore, Jiang Chen didn't know much about this person's fighting style. However, Jiang Chen did not have much psychological ripple because of this.

He didn't particularly care who the opponent was.

Although this Su Hong is unfathomable, it is only for others. For Jiang Chen, anything unfathomable is nothing in front of him.

The staff members of the City Lord's Mansion were also excited.

"These two are against each other, but it's a peak duel. ”

"Haha, this little guy surnamed Jiang has met an opponent this time. This Su Hong, I have heard, is a young man who has risen rapidly in Dongyan Island in the past twenty years. It is said that among the younger generation of Dongyan Island, this Su Hong is also the top three. The call is very high on the rivers and lakes. ”

"Indeed, this Su Hong's name is really not small on Dongyan Island. He was willing to participate in the selection this time, and everyone was surprised!"

"It's not an accident that is not an accident, is it? no matter how famous he is, he is also a wandering cultivator. In Dongyan Island, people who have no foundation still have to find someone to attach to after all. It was a wise move to take refuge in the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"Haha, let's look at this Su Hong, fighting with this Jiang kid will definitely be very exciting. ”

"City Lord, look at these two fighting, what are the chances of this Jiang kid winning?"

Xie Wuxian didn't rush to speak, and after a long time, he sighed lightly: "Su Hong is good, but this city lord has a hunch that he will not have any chance of winning." ”

"What?" everyone thought they had the wrong ear. Su Hong is so strong and has such a high voice, he is a well-known genius among the younger generation of Dongyan Island.

He has no hope for this unknown Jiang boy?

The judgment of the city lord made everyone a little confused, and they couldn't accept it psychologically. I640
