Chapter 39: The Challenge Begins
The dawn broke, and the faint light on the horizon ended the dark dance.
Yuqing had a sweet dream. On the lake of the moon, a pair of young men and women hugged each other, looking at the beautiful lake and mountains. There are big fish in the lake that jump up and splash white water. The scales on his body shimmered and sparkled with the breeze, emitting a beautiful rhythm. The boy held a bouquet of flowers in his hand, gently tore off the petals, and sprinkled them along the surface of the lake. The petals rise and fall in the clear and bright water, rippling layers of ripples, plucking the heartstrings of the girl.
The quiet and peaceful scene gradually blurred, the lake began to be rough, the boat shook violently, and Yuqing woke up from his dream with an "ah".
She uncovered the brocade quilt on her body and rubbed her sleepy eyes. I suddenly remembered that today is the day of the battle for the top 10 rankings. "I'm going to cheer for Brother Shi. He got up from the bed and rushed out of the door with a gust of wind.
On the arena, Ruan Ruan and the other top ten disciples were already neatly lined up, waiting for the notice.
Lin Xiangrou is as charming as ever, "Starting today, it will be a competition to determine the top ten rankings. I believe everyone is already eager to try, and the format of this ranking tournament is different from the previous ones. ”
Everyone was puzzled, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the teacher's gourd.
So far, Ruan Ruan has replaced the position of Bai Jintao, the tenth place in the last session, and the top nine are Qin Yufeng, Chu Feiyan, Yuankong, Liu Qingyi, Shi Meng, Wang Konghui, Chen Sankong, Wu Changli, and Liu Yi. This ranking tournament adopts the method of challenge, Qin Yufeng, as the final champion, each other can get a chance to challenge, and can only challenge a player who is one player higher than his current ranking. The winner can continue to have the right to challenge, and the loser loses the right to challenge and can only use the right to challenge once per round. After everyone exercises their right to challenge, it is your final ranking. The order of the challenges is determined by drawing. Lin Xiangrou raised the pot in his hand.
Lin Xiangrou's eyes rolled, "The nine of you can come up and draw lots." ”
Nine disciples came to the stage to start the draw, and everyone was quite excited, only Ruan Ruan was the most stressed. He needs to challenge one by one to climb the rankings, and the more times he needs to challenge if he wants to be at the top. The top nine are all outstanding in the academy, and it seems that a fierce battle is inevitable.
Lin Xiangrou saw that everyone had finished drawing lots, and began to announce the results of the lottery, "The first to play is Shi Meng, who is ranked fifth, and Liu Qingyi, who is ranked fourth. ”
Liu Qingyi is the only female student among the top ten contestants, not only is she beautiful, but she is also amazing in whipping with one hand.
Shi Mengchang was thin and tall, and he looked urbane, but it was the opposite of his name. The two are also old rivals, Liu Qingyi was slightly better in the last competition, Shi Meng has been honing himself throughout the year, and at this time, both of them are surprisingly cautious.
For Liu Qingyi, if he loses the challenge, he will be ranked fifth, and there is no chance to continue the challenge, so this battle is inevitable. Shi Meng looked more like a big boy next door, and he didn't exude any amazing momentum from him, just stood there relaxed and natural, which was diametrically opposed to the earth-shattering movements that erupted as soon as the previous contestants came on the field.
Soon the two of them fought together, but they were both first tried and did not fight with all their might. They all know in their hearts that if they lose, they will definitely stagnate compared to the previous ranking, and even have the danger of falling behind, because they will accept the continued challenge of those who come after them, and they still have to have reservations when they are not necessary.
The disciples in the audience saw the two fists and feet, and the scene was quite intense, and the crowd cheered one after another. Insiders saw it in their eyes and knew that the two were just warming up and did not try their best.
Although Liu Qingyi is a woman, the exercises she practices are extremely fierce, with a golden true qi in one hand, invincible, and fierce.
Shi Meng's earth-based exercises are impermeable to defend.
The two of them have a spear and a shield, one is aggressive, the other is heavily defensive, and it is difficult to distinguish for a while.
Ruan Ruan watched the two fight and nodded secretly. At the beginning of the Jindan realm, the elements of heaven and earth began to comprehend, and the five elements were mutually reinforcing each other, and each had their strengths and weaknesses. In addition to the depth of the realm, it also depends on the degree of perception of the power of the elements. Those who have a deep understanding can use more powerful exercises and more subtle variations. Therefore, the degree of perception and perception of each person determines the height of future development. Perception represents advanced speed, and perception represents reflexes and manipulation. The high level of comprehension is fast, and the realm is improved quickly. Perception reflects the mastery and application of the exercises, as well as the speed of adaptation in battle.
was thinking about it, and the battle between the two on the stage had entered a white heat. The two no longer tested each other and began to fire at full power.
"Senior Sister Liu is usually not such a reckless person, why is she so anxious at the moment. Some disciples were puzzled.
"Senior Brother Shi has improved his skills compared to the last competition, and Senior Sister Liu does not use all her strength, I am afraid that it will be difficult to win. "Someone saw some clues.
Liu Qingyi was a little helpless on the field, and there was a certain rhythm implied in Shi Meng's defense. Every time he attacked, he easily defused it. And every time the other party stepped out, her qi and blood fluctuated, like a giant elephant running, leaving deep footprints on the ground. His attack has not been effective, but his body has been driven by him to slowly retreat, and if he continues to stalemate, I am afraid that he will be forced out of the arena by him.
Liu Qingyi was holding a soft whip with blue oil in his hand, and the golden true qi was running, like a green snake, dexterous and vicious, specializing in breaking the true qi of the body. Shi Meng didn't dare to let her whip it softly, with a small hammer in one hand and a small shield in the other, no matter how clever the opponent's tricks were, he only cared about defending himself tightly. In addition to resisting, the ground vibrates with the hard step, which seems to be moving at will, but in fact, it is a mystery.
Liu Qingyi couldn't attack for a long time, and the opponent's footsteps constantly disrupted her offensive rhythm, and she was faintly anxious.
The soft whip in his hand was really puffed up, shaking straight like a spear, and poked straight into the opponent's chest.
Shi Meng's left hand shield protected his chest, and the small hammer in his right hand smashed into her shoulder, forcing her to change her moves.
Liu Qingyi's soft whip stabbed on the small shield, but it was a turn of true anger, and the soft whip wrapped the small shield layer by layer and picked it up hard. Shi Meng naturally couldn't let go, and was carried into the air by a soft whip like a kite.
The disciples in the audience watched it wonderfully and applauded one after another. It's just that Ruan Ruan saw that although Liu Qingyi stopped Shi Meng's strange footsteps on the surface, Shi Meng also acted according to the plan, and with the power of the soft whip, he slammed into Liu Qingyi from the air.
Liu Qingyi's soft whip wrapped around the small shield, and he couldn't shake off Shi Meng at this time, but if he retreated, he had already reached the edge of the arena, and the situation was very dangerous.
Shi Meng's small hammer was infused with earth-based true qi, although it was not as aggressive as gold-based true qi, but at this time, it had a geographical advantage, forcing Liu Qingyi to collide with him head-on.
"It's over, Senior Sister Liu is going to be bad. Apparently, Liu Qingyi's supporters exclaimed in a hurry.
Ruan Ruan didn't think so, Liu Qingyi ranked fourth on the celebrity list, and it was impossible to use these means.
Sure enough, something changed on the field.
Liu Qingyi seemed to be at a disadvantage, and with a hard pull of the soft whip in his hand, Shi Meng was in the air, and was pulled straight by her, and the small hammer in his hand with the earthy yellow true qi was about to smash into Liu Qingyi's body.
Liu Qingyi's body leaned back, his body was parallel to the ground, and his left hand pressed on the ground, sliding forward like a loach. Staggered with Shi Meng's body, dodged the attack of the small hammer, and instead threw Shi Meng out of the arena.
At this time, between the light and fire of calcium carbide, the offensive and defensive conversion was completed, and everyone in the audience was dazzled.
Shi Meng's body was in the air, unable to retract his momentum, and his thin and tall body fell on the sidelines.
He bowed deeply to Liu Qingyi on the stage, "Senior Sister Liu is amazing." ”
He smiled, his words showed no discouragement, and there seemed to be some joy in his eyes.
"Bang bang. ”
The audience burst into applause and applause. Liu Qingyi also stood up from the field, although she was dangerous and clumsy in her skill, but it was quite dangerous to win, and she didn't have much pride in her heart, but the result was good after all, she nodded at Shi Meng.
A smile appeared at the corner of Ruan Ruan's mouth, Shi Meng was interesting. It stands to reason that he shouldn't be so easy to be tricked, he behaved like this because he liked Liu Qingyi and deliberately gave in to her, in order not to be too obvious, he also took great pains.
