Chapter 207: Potential

defeated Li Yuanlong, and Cheng Ling's reputation instantly rose to the top. Although the battle between the two is not long, the momentum is amazing, and every move is breathtaking.

And careful disciples have discovered that Cheng Ling has always taken the initiative. Li Yuanlang's moves did not pose much threat to him, so it can be inferred that Cheng Ling's combat power was far above Li Yuanlang.

What is this concept?

Li Yuanlang ranked eighteenth in the last big competition, and after three years, his strength will only be stronger, even if he can't advance a few places, it should be no problem to stay within twenty.

So Cheng Ling, who defeated Li Yuanlong, how many of his strengths can be ranked in the top 20 or even higher?

The audience is not calm, and they are all guessing Cheng Ling's true strength.

"In my opinion, Cheng Ling will definitely be able to enter the top ten, you must know that in the last big competition, the top three did not participate, plus the strength of defeating Li Yuanlang, the top ten must not run. ”

"I think it's more than the top ten, haven't you noticed, although the duel between them is very strong, but Cheng Ling didn't make a few moves, the battle time is very short, obviously there is still room for power, I believe he can enter the top five. ”

"Six new stars, Cheng Ling should be the strongest!"

Everyone guessed differently, and there was no accurate answer, but the attention to Cheng Ling rose in a straight line.

On the rostrum, Jian Lao Dao stroked his beard and said secretly: "The old man is really right, his achievements are by no means more than this, and the top five can be competed for." ”

The elder of the martial arts was depressed for a while, and he had told the elder of the sword that Cheng Ling was going to be defeated by Li Yuanlang's men. But in less than a while, he was slapped in the face, when did Cheng Ling's combat power rise so strongly, even Li Yuanlong, who was ranked eighteenth in the last session, was defeated.

Looking at the disciples in the No. 8 ring, except for one seeded player, Li Yuen Long is already the highest ranking. So now it seems that Cheng Ling's entry into the third round is a sure thing, and even the ranking in the ring will be very high, at least second.

Ten seeded players, the court attendants generally don't let them play too early. The tournament is 1,000 out of 100, with each player having to fight at least 10 games, and only when the game is interrupted will the seeded players play.

As a result, no one knows which seeded player will be assigned to each ring. If you meet the bottom five seeded players, you may still be able to play a dozen, but if you meet the top five disciples, I am afraid that you can only be ranked second.

But even so, in just over a year since Cheng Ling joined the inner gate, it is appalling to have such combat power. The Martial Dao Elder couldn't help but feel a trace of envy, in the past two years of the Kendo Academy, outstanding disciples have emerged one after another, and they have the strength to compete with the Dharma Dao Academy.

On the other hand, in his own martial arts academy, except for the top few disciples in the previous session, there was almost a fault line among the junior disciples, and he reluctantly selected two new star disciples, which was still based on the fact that he did not encounter a strong enemy.

The strength of the Kendo Academy has indeed gradually caught up. In addition to the wonderful performance of Cheng Ling in the No. 8 ring, Bai Yiyi in the No. 2 ring and Gu Youlan in the No. 6 ring have all won four consecutive victories. Combined with another rising star in the third ring, Gao Feng, there are four players who maintain their winning streak.

Even Wu Chenlong in the No. 1 ring, with his cultivation in the late Yuan Infant period, has achieved three victories. However, Cheng Ling is not optimistic, Wu Chenlong's first four games, except for the one that failed, the opponents he encountered in the other three games were not strong, and the victory was also very hard.

Unless the next six games are good, don't run into too strong disciples, win five wins first, so that you can still have a good chance of fighting when you meet a strong disciple and advance to the final ranking match.

As for Bai Yiyi and Gu Youlan, Cheng Ling is not worried about them. The combat power of the two women, in his eyes, is not less than ten seed disciples, and even surpasses, and this year's big competition has a chance to enter the top five.

The match continued, and Cheng Ling ushered in his fourth opponent. The other party was a disciple of the Kendo Academy, and when he saw that it was Cheng Ling who was fighting, he didn't wait to get into the ring, and said directly: "I abstain!"

The court referee nodded, didn't care, and directly announced Cheng Ling's victory.

In the ring match, each disciple has to fight ten games, and if he encounters a strong enemy too early and consumes too much true yuan, it will be very detrimental to the later battle. Cheng Ling even defeated Li Yuanlang, asking himself if he was an opponent, maybe he would be injured, for the sake of insurance, it was better to retain his strength first!

Cheng Ling smiled slightly, he was happy to win without a fight.

The rostrum and the audience were disappointed. Cheng Ling played three battles, each with a different style and different swordsmanship. They also wanted to take a closer look and find out Cheng Ling's strength, but who knew that the other party had directly abstained.

"The people of the Kendo Academy are really obscene, and when they meet the disciples of their own Dao Academy, they directly abstain from voting, and they don't send points like this. A disciple of the Dharma Dao Academy said sourly.

"Fart, Senior Brother Cheng's strength is obvious to all, you have the ability to try it yourself, and the appropriate concession is to preserve your strength. Immediately, a disciple of the Kendo Academy retorted.

"According to what you say, if Cheng Ling encounters all the ones from the Kendo Academy in the future, won't they all be able to win without a fight?"

"What's that, if you have the ability, don't admit defeat to the disciples of your Dharma Dao Academy!"

"Cut, my Dharma Dao Academy disciple will never admit defeat easily!"

The arguments in the audience were non-stop, but Cheng Ling didn't care, he was observing Wu Chenlong's battle. This time, that kid ran into Cheng Hongliang, who was ranked seventy-second in the last session of the Dharma Dao Academy, and the two had been fighting in the ring for half an hour.

Cheng Hongliang's spells are very powerful, and the casting frequency is super fast. Wu Chenlong was suppressed in the center of the ring, and the long sword in his hand danced incomprehensibly. He knew that his attack power and body skills were not strong, so he could only defend and consume the opponent's true yuan to the maximum.

Wu Chenlong's defensive sword move is the "Sword Condensing Technique" taught by Cheng Ling, and then improved it according to his own characteristics. The defense ability is extremely strong, ordinary attacks cannot be broken, and it has been resisting the sword qi of the bamboo forest for a long time, and it is quite experienced in defense.

Cheng Hongliang attacked fiercely for half an hour, and the true yuan in his body gradually failed, Wu Chenlong still waited patiently, until a stick of incense, he grabbed the flaw of the other party, approached in an instant, burst out with all his combat power, and won the fourth game with difficulty.

He let out a long breath and returned to Cheng Ling's side.

Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction and said, "Now that your defensive sword moves have reached a very high level, in the future, you will have to work more on your body and attack power." ”

Wu Chenlong nodded silently, he was very convinced of Cheng Ling's eyesight, every time he pointed out, he could improve himself a little.

Cheng Ling continued: "Now that you have won four games, you have a 60% chance of entering the third round, and as long as you win one more game, you will have 80%. If you lose the next game, you will only be 50%, and if you lose two games in a row, you will have no chance of entering the third round. ”

Wu Chenlong was solemn and said, "Boss, I will definitely work hard." ”

"The next game is key, when the seeded players will come in and it will be up to them to see if they can draw a good draw. ”

As the game continued, the clock passed slowly, and by now, the sun had set and night had fallen. The presiding elder announced that this is the end of today's game, and the rest of the game will continue tomorrow.

The crowd was still unsatisfied, but the disciples of the competition had been in the spiritual turmoil for a long time, and they also needed to rest, so they could only give up and disperse one by one. Some disciples have decided to grab a good seat directly in the audience so that they can watch tomorrow's game.

The heat of the inner door competition continued to burn, and after a day of competition, most of the disciples saw some clues. What has endured for a long time is the struggle for strength between the three courts.

Now, the number of disciples who have maintained a winning streak, the Dharma Dao Academy and the Kendo Academy, have gradually caught up, and only the Martial Arts Academy is not much different from the previous results.

At the residence of Sun Yuanliang, the head of the Dharma Dao Academy, the two elders reported on the current situation of the ring match. He had a gloomy face and said, "What's the matter, in this big competition, the results of the Kendo Academy are about the same as ours?"

An elder said bitterly: "The courtyard master, mainly Bai Yiyi, Gu Youlan, and Cheng Ling, according to the old man's view, all three of them have the top ten combat power. ”

"We can't go on like this, it's not easy to suppress the Kendo Academy, if they let their strength improve again, I'm afraid that our Dharma Dao Academy's life will be difficult, and even the head of the academy will ask. ”

"But the ring match is a lottery form, and we can't do anything about it!"

"You don't have to do anything, you explain to the disciples of Bai Yiyi, Gu Youlan, and Cheng Ling, as long as they encounter it, even if they are seriously injured, they must try their best to injure the other party and consume their combat power to the greatest extent. ”

The two elders' eyes lit up, and they hurriedly said, "The courtyard master is wise, this method is feasible. ”

"Go ahead, go down, don't let the Kendo Academy resurrect!"

The two brothers, Jian Wuya and Jian Wuregret, sat opposite each other. Jian Wuregret said: "Second brother, according to the current situation, we have a better chance of winning in this competition, and the resources of the academy will be tilted towards us again!"

Jian Wuya said: "You can't take it lightly, Sun Yuanliang will definitely not sit still, and with the support of the head of the general courtyard, it is likely that some insidious means will be used." Also, the disciple's side should also explain that for those who go to the Martial Arts Academy, try to avoid two hundred injuries, so that the Dharma Academy can pick up the cheapness in vain. ”

"Well, I'll explain. Second brother, what do you think Cheng Ling's combat power has reached now?"

Jian Wuya smiled and said, "Why, can't even you see it?"

Jian Wuregret nodded depressedly and said, "This kid has only fought three times, and he doesn't feel like he has much strength, I can't see it." ”

Jian Wuya said cautiously: "This is his mastery, the style and swordsmanship used in each battle are different, making people confused about the depths. In the future battles, as long as he maintains this style, the other disciples will be even more afraid of him!"

"Why?"

"It's a potential!"

"What do you say?"

It can be seen as sword power, power, might, and so on. But Cheng Ling's potential is a more powerful kind of 'potential' that surpasses those potentials, just like the wolf king standing in the wolf pack, which can play an advantage and a deterrent in nature. ”

Jian Wuxian opened his mouth wide and asked in disbelief: "No, he is only in his twenties, and he has such a strong 'potential'?"

Jian Wuya said: "Don't underestimate him, his combat power is very strong, and his resourcefulness is also excellent, creating this 'momentum' is so that our Kendo Academy can compete with the Dharma Dao Academy." ”

Not only that, but under his leadership, Yiyi and Youlan's combat power increased rapidly. Even if he is a hero, although his own strength is extremely strong, he is still inseparable from him. His future achievements will definitely be above you and me!"
