Among the sixteen contestants in the competition in the courtyard of Houtu Academy, the top nine people on the forbidden dungeon palace list are all well-known monks, and among the candidates for the four elders, three of them are all people who have the right to fight for the line by virtue of their strength, and their strength should definitely not be underestimated, perhaps only the candidates of the new elder Xie Jintian, the monks of the Cao family of Qihu and the Zhang family of Jiangshui are slightly weaker, but they are not sure, in short, the monks who can be on this stage are not simple.

Of course, among the sixteen people, there are also recognized people with super strength, that is, the top three on the list of talents, Xia Lingyan, Li Junfeng and Liang Yicheng.

Yin Ze'an began to announce the order of the battle, and all the contestants were praying not to meet these three people in the first round, except for Lin Xiuqi, of course, he was not familiar with the three of them, and only knew that the three of them were the top three people on the Houtu Academy's list of talents, but he didn't care too much, if he was to judge the victory or defeat by the list of different talents, he was also the top of the list of barbarian forbidden relics, so he was not afraid of the three.

After listening to the battle arrangement of the sixteen people, Lin Xiuqi remembered two of the three familiar people, a young man around twenty years old named Zou Liang, who was the male cultivator who was robbed of his partner by Zhou Keji in public in the canteen of the forbidden dungeon palace of the Houtu Academy, but he didn't expect that this person was equivalent to his cultivation at the beginning, but now he has also become a monk in the spirit period, and his cultivation speed is not slow.

The thirty-year-old steady male cultivator's name is Tang Mingyang, when Lin Xiuqi first arrived in the Five Elements Sect, he had been to the Internal Affairs Pavilion once, and he planned to take a look at the mission, and it happened that Tang Mingyang, who was a monk of the food group, was recruiting newcomers, and he had seen it once, but he didn't expect this person's strength to be good.

Lin Xiuqi's opponent in the first battle was named "Liu Zheng", the competition was in the third ring, he stepped into the ring, and found that his opponent was the monk who looked a little familiar, at this time, the opponent's pair of triangular eyes were looking him up and down.

"Lin Xiuqi, I heard that your cultivation speed is very fast, so you must have used some special means to advance quickly! I advise you to admit defeat obediently, so as not to ask for hardship! I might as well tell you, my exercises are powerful, and the strength is difficult to control, if I accidentally hurt you for a while, and ruined the friendship of my fellow disciples, don't blame me!"

Someone under the ring shouted: "Yes, yes, it's just a guy who has just started for more than a year, and he is actually impatient to confront the famous Senior Brother Liu Zheng?"

"That's right! That's right, Senior Brother Liu, come on! Teach this guy who doesn't know the height of the sky!"

Lin Xiuqi looked helplessly at the two monks who were trying their best to praise Liu Zheng next to the ring, and thought, bring your own cheerleading team, and diss me, and you can't rhyme, you spent this money a little unjustly!

When Lin Xiuqi heard this person's name, he remembered where he had seen the other party, Liu Zheng did have a relationship with him, this person was the person who embarrassed Tian Chun in the dark market that day, and he also gaged the person in front of him, at that time, Xia Lingyan and Xia Luyuan were also present, and Bai Hanyu was also there.

Lin Xiuqi sighed softly and said lightly: "I have admired the name for a long time! If you are an opponent, I really want to ask for advice!"

"Remember what you said, don't regret it!" Liu Zheng said angrily.

Seeing Liu Zheng's reaction, everyone showed puzzlement, and they didn't know why this person was so irritable when he was not fighting.

At the same time, he paid attention to the situation of all the contestants in the courtyard, knowing that the vitality of the Mu family in Dijing was greatly damaged, and the genius disciples in the spirit period were not in good condition, so he deliberately implored Xie Jintian to choose the representative of the Mu family as the opponent in the first round, as long as he could win the first round of the competition, he could become the top ten of the Houtu Academy, even if all the subsequent competitions failed, it was nothing, at least this name could bring him many benefits.

However, he didn't expect that the representative of the Mu family was not a monk of the Mu family, how could he not be annoyed by this.

All sixteen people were ready, and Yin Ze'an said, "The competition begins!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an exclamation from the side of the No. 7 ring, Lin Xiuqi followed the prestige and found that a person had fallen on the ring, and a woman stood on the ring with an indifferent expression, as if nothing had happened, it was Xia Lingyan.

Just when everyone was sighing at the strength of this woman, Li Junfeng and Liang Yicheng ended the battle within three moves, attracting cheers from everyone.

At this moment, everyone, including Lin Xiuqi, was surprised, the opponents of these three people were not ordinary, they were all the top nine people on the list, but they didn't expect that they would have no power to fight back in front of the three of them.

Seeing Lin Xiuqi's looking left and right, Liu Zheng said coldly: "What about the different talent list, it's just a group of guys who rely on foreign things to make a name for themselves, maybe only these three people are deservedly strong." Don't be delusional about fighting against others, see if Lao Tzu accepts you!"

Liu Zheng found that the other party completely ignored his words, and continued to look at the other rings, he was furious in his heart, his arms flashed yellow, and in an instant, layers of rock and soil firmly wrapped his arms, and gradually formed two rock and soil gauntlets.

Although the gauntlet is transformed by spiritual magic, it is not ordinary, its surface flashes with silver light, it looks like two spiritual hammers, it is very strong, if it is hit, it will either kill or be injured.

Liu Zheng screamed, his feet suddenly exerted force, and he went straight to the other party.

Maybe it's because the weight of the gauntlet is not light, or maybe it's because Liu Zheng's speed is not fast, his full speed is not fast in the eyes of everyone, and he doesn't even look like a monk in the Spirit Period. Qiyin

After two breaths, Liu Zheng came to Lin Xiuqi and punched out with both fists, and steadily hit the other party's body, at this moment, Liu Zheng's face showed an excited smile, he was confident that even if Xia Lingyan and the three of them received his full blow without dodging, they would not be able to retreat with their whole body, let alone a newcomer who had just entered the agile period.

Liu Zheng, who was in joy, found that the other party's expression was a little strange, and he didn't know what he was thinking, as if it was a feeling of "indescribable", and he said indignantly: "Ignorant people, dare to take my stunt defenselessly, it's really bold......"

"Click!"

With a crisp sound, the rock armor on Liu Zheng's right arm shattered, and all the onlookers, including the person concerned, were stunned for a moment, and before everyone could react, there was a crisp "click", and the arm armor on his left hand shattered, and everyone's surprise became even stronger.

Lin Xiuqi calmly rubbed the place where he was hit, moved his shoulders slightly, he took a step forward and punched the opponent's lower abdomen, and the next moment, Liu Zheng's body drew a perfect parabola in the air, and smoothly crashed into the formation of the ring, losing consciousness.

Everyone let out a burst of cheers, they didn't expect that Lin Xiuqi, who had blown up all over the Four Pavilions and had also won the top spot in the Four Pavilions assessment, would have such strength.

"I didn't expect Senior Brother Lin to be not only a potential technician, but also a powerful monk!"

"Yes, I really didn't expect that if it were me, with my extensive knowledge enough to live a leisurely life, how could I have the heart to hone my strength!"

"Hmph, how can you compare with Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother's pursuit is higher, this is the real monk, the model of my generation!"

"Learn from Senior Brother Lin!"

"Salute to Senior Brother Lin!"

Everyone cheered, but there were two people whose emotions were different from others, and in mid-air, Xie Jintian watched the person he recommended being easily defeated, and his face was a little ugly.

On the No. 4 ring not far from Lin Xiuqi, Liang Yicheng looked at Lin Xiuqi, his eyes were shining, and an excited smile appeared on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

In a short time, all the geniuses won one after another, Xia Luyuan met the people of Jiang Shui's Zhang family and won easily, and the people of the Cao family of Bird Lake were also easily defeated, but the other few competitions were not easy, the two sides were either monks with different talents, or people who got the quota after several battles, and the winners were quick to lose, but the winner paid a lot of price!

According to the rules, there is a quarter of an hour of monk time after each round of competition, Xia Lingyan, Liang Yicheng, Li Junfeng, Xia Luyuan and Lin Xiuqi won easily, and there was no need to breathe at all, but the other three hurriedly took the healing pill and seized the time to adjust their state.

A quarter of an hour later, Yin Ze'an announced loudly: "The second round of the competition begins! The eight winners of the first round will compete first!"

Everyone didn't understand the meaning of the courtyard, they had clearly said that it would be carried out at the same time, but for some reason the order was changed, and what was even more strange was that no one raised any objections at the first time, they all looked at the eight people who failed in the first round, and immediately understood what Yin Ze'an meant.

Among the eight people, the people who fought against Xia Lingyan, Liang Yicheng and Li Junfeng were still in a coma, and among the five people who were sober, Cao Yifeng of the Cao family of Qihu, Zhang Lewen and Liu Zheng of the Zhang family of Jiang Shui were too weak and had no ornamentation, and Fan Yi, who was eighth on the list, and Zhang Tong, who was ninth on the list, were not lightly injured and could not start the competition immediately.

"Change!"

Yin Ze'an gave an order, and many monks gathered around the eight rings, and they all worked together to push the huge rings, and the eight rings were combined into four within three breaths.

Lin Xiuqi thought to himself, the designer of the ring seems to be from playing "Lego".

Yin Ze'an continued to announce the battle list, Lin Xiuqi was puzzled, and said in his heart: "Brother worm, why don't you say that there is no battle table?

"Boy, today is just a competition in the courtyard, do you think that as the head of the courtyard, you prefer to fight to the death in the courtyard, or get good results in the competition in the sect tomorrow!"

"Understood!"

Not long after, the four groups of opponents were announced, Lin Xiuqi's luck was not good, and his opponent in the second round was Xia Luyuan, who entered the sect at the same time as him.
