"Finally, I wish you all a victorious start and return home with a victory!" Wu Fang's last sentence raised the morale in the hall to the peak. Subsequently, under the leadership of the Tong gang leader, the large army of the Loyal Bone Gang marched towards the competition venue.

At this moment, in Guan Jiu City, the road from the headquarters of the Loyal Bone Gang to the competition venue has long been cleaned by a gang of people, and pedestrians can only stand at the bottom of the building or in the teahouses on both sides to pay attention to this team. Every time you pass through an intersection, there will be two flags into the team, so that the momentum of the whole team is getting stronger and stronger, and the number of people is increasing, and when the team arrives at the competition venue, the momentum has reached its peak.

The gang waiting here opened the gate from afar, and the Loyal Bone Gang team entered the huge arena unimpeded. Zhou Xiang looked at it, the entire venue was extremely wide, and the place where the Loyal Bone Gang was located was painted a piece of cyan, and everyone was dressed in the same color of Taoist robes, which looked particularly neat.

The seats in all four directions of the arena were already filled with monks and mortals who had come to watch the battle. There are also many spectators who have no seats and can only stand in place, looking around on tiptoe and craned their necks. Zhou Xiang was obviously surrounded by supporters of the Loyal Bone Gang, and when he saw them coming, there was a burst of cheers.

The high-ranking members of the Loyal Bones Gang and the monks who participated in the competition must not be on the side of the audience, and there is a special room for everyone to rest.

Zhou Xiang and them, as foundation building monks, were naturally treated better, and they were arranged in a room on the second floor of the outermost part, where they could not only see the process of the competition, but also rest and meditate.

As the monks of the Immortal Charm Sect, who are the upper sects, they have better three-story elegant rooms for them to use.

Zhou Xiang stood on the second floor and looked down, and the other three groups of monks were also entering, their robes were red, green, and yellow, making the entire venue distinct. There were also many monks over there who surrounded a few people to enter the third floor, and they should be the disciples of the great sects behind the gangs.

Looking at the room, a bumpy figure came to Zhou Xiang's side, Zhou Xiang turned his head to look, and found that it was Zhuang Xiaolu, today she was wearing a tight-fitting robe, convex and backward, with that slightly pale face, it looked even more pitiful.

"What is Protector Zhou looking at?" Zhuang Xiaolu asked softly.

"Nothing, feel the atmosphere of the fight. ”

"It seems that Zhou Protector is very relaxed, and he has the ticket to win the battle that is coming soon?" Zhuang Xiaolu said with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"You can say so. Zhou Xiang responded.

"Aren't you worried about Mo Wuxie's tricks?"

"No matter what tricks he uses, just defeat it in the open. ”

"Then I wish Zhou Protector a victory in advance!"

"Thank you, you didn't come to tell me this, did you?" Zhou Xiang asked, "By the way, how about you please help me place a heavy bet?"

"Are you afraid that I will be greedy for your 20,000 spirit stones?" I have staked all my net worth on you!" Zhuang Xiaolu said angrily, "If I lose, my savings for many years will be lost, and you will have to be responsible for supporting me at that time!"

"No problem! If I lose, I will never leave you alone!" Zhou Xiang admitted.

"For the sake of your conscience, I'll tell you about the information I've just gotten. It's about the four monks of the Five Tigers. Zhuang Xiaolu shrugged.

Zhou Xiang naturally would not refuse her kindness.

"The first is known as the first person under the Jindan, Yin Chunhui, the first one of the foundation building monks, this person is extremely strong, he is an immortal talent in the Divine Hunting Pavilion, he once defeated two monks in the late stage of foundation building with the cultivation of the middle stage of the foundation, and he also used the cultivation of the late stage of the foundation to win a fellow Jindan disciple. Legend has it that in the Great Contest of the Tsukiji Monk of the Kamikaku Pavilion, he defeated ten challengers in one day and achieved great fame. ”

"The second is Deacon Tian Jin of the Five Tigers Gang, who cultivated in the later stage of foundation building, and his people became famous for their insidious cunning and ruthless tricks. When it came to Tian Jin, Zhuang Xiaolu looked resentful, "I didn't kill him at the beginning and let him live for a few more days, now that I met him this time, I hope you can take the opportunity to get rid of this person, Xiaolu is grateful here, if you need it in the future, even if it is to serve the pillow, Xiaolu will not refuse." ”

It seems that this Tian Jin really offended Zhuang Xiaolu to death, otherwise he would definitely not be able to say such explicit words.

Zhou Xiang sighed: "Don't worry, as long as it's right, Tian Jin will definitely not get out of the arena alive." Xiaolu, you have helped me a lot in Guan Jiu City, and killing him can be regarded as a reward for you. ”

Zhuang Xiaolu gave Zhou Xiang a deep salute: "In this way, Xiaolu is here to thank Zhou Protector in advance." ”

"The third is a monk newly recruited by the Five Tigers Gang, named Miao Chengkong, this person defeated another foundation building monk of the Five Tigers Gang the day before yesterday to obtain the qualification for the competition, and the information we got is that this person's body method is extremely strange, and he can't see the teacher, but his strength assessment definitely surpasses Tian Jin, ranking third among the four monks on the other side. Don't underestimate it!" Zhuang Xiaolu introduced again.

When Zhou Xiang heard that the other party's name was Miao Chengkong, his heart moved, Ding Yi, this kid really got in! Isn't Miao Chengkong a combination of Miao Shou Zong, Chengtian Disk, and spatial attributes? This is because he was afraid that he didn't know that it was him, and he was worried that he would be injured by mistake in the competition, so he gave such a name? But this kid is fast enough. Now that one of the two is under the Divine Hunting Pavilion, and the other is within the power of the Immortal Charm Sect, there is no need to worry about future intelligence problems.

"The fourth person is called Zhong Shaoyang, this person is treacherous, and he can't find out his origin at all, but it should be certain that he is the Jindan monk invited by Mo Wuxian, but I don't know what method he will use to fool around and participate in the competition. ”

After introducing the four monks, Zhuang Xiaolu added: "The monks of the other two groups should be careful, because they are usually friendly with us on the surface, and everyone will stop there." It's not like the Five Tigers, who have gone through hundreds of years of hatred and entanglement, and they will kill each other as soon as they meet. ”

"Yes, the information in the gang is very sufficient, so that I can prepare well and have a heart!" Zhou Xiang smiled at Zhuang Xiaolu.

"You're welcome. Zhuang Xiaolu punned, "Protector Zhou concentrates on the competition, remember to take care of your life, you can achieve the best of my request just now, and it's nothing if you can't achieve it, after all, the future is long, and you don't care about it." ”

"Don't worry, it may be difficult to clean up the Jindan Monk, but the Tsukiji Monk is absolutely fine. Zhou Xiang nodded.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a drum sounded, interrupting the conversation between the two and marking the official start of the competition.

An old man dressed in a Danshi robe walked up to the central high platform, he bowed his hand to the Quartet, and the entire competition venue was instantly silent: "Hehe! I believe that many people know the old man or have heard the name of the old man, and I am Lu Zhi, the elder of Mudingmen!"

As soon as the old man's voice fell, there was a burst of excited voices from the audience.

"Lu Zhi is one of the six elders of Mudingmen, his cultivation is in the middle of the Yuan Infant, and he is still a seventh-grade alchemist, and I heard that he has touched the threshold of the eighth-grade. He is highly respected in the Muding Gate, even the Divine Hunting Pavilion and the Immortal Charm Sect will sell his face, and it is most suitable to invite him to the town this time. Zhuang Xiaolu introduced on the side of Zhou Xiang.

While the two were talking, Lu Zhi on the field had already completed a short speech, and the audience responded with warm applause.

Then the second drum sounded, and the Qi refining monks who participated in the first stage of the competition were invited to the field, and after standing in the four directions, there were special monks to read out the rules and precautions of the competition, and then the formal competition began.

The first stage of the knockout rounds will be played in multiple venues, and the subsequent challenges will be held one by one.

Zhou Xiang was not very interested in the competition of the Qi refining cultivators, so after listening to the arrangement of the competition and watching the first few battles, he found a quiet seat and began to close his eyes and recuperate.

Zhuang Xiaolu was always by his side, like a protector of the Dharma.

Although there were many fights for the monks, they actually went on very quickly, and in just one morning, the elimination round was over. Many low-level monks watching the battle in the audience saw all kinds of brilliance flickering on the stage, water, wood, gold, fire, earth, puppets, and demon beasts constantly appeared, and some monks were flying away and fighting happily, so they cheered loudly.

Those mortals watched it for a while, were happy for a while, and dizzy for a while, although they couldn't understand the matter of the immortals fighting, it was rare to have the opportunity to watch it once, and it was strange if they weren't excited.

After the elimination round, the top ten were ranked according to the level of points, and the largest number of people in them were actually the Grass Farmer Gang and the Scattered Cultivators, both of which were three Qi Refining Cultivators, while the Loyal Bone Gang and the Five Tiger Gang each had two monks in the top ten.

The fundamental reason for this situation is that when the Grass Peasant Gang or the Loose Monk Monks come on the field, the two sides of the battle are basically merciful and will not fight to the death, but once the Loyal Bone Gang and the Five Tiger Gang meet, both sides will inevitably go all out, and it is impossible to draw with serious injuries, and all of them will end with the death of one side.

Therefore, the Five Tigers Gang and the Loyal Bone Gang, which suffered huge losses, are naturally inferior to the other two gangs in terms of points. However, it is the elite who can fight to the end, and in the next challenge, the Five Tigers Gang monks are even stronger, taking the final championship into their arms, and the second place is won by the grass farmer Gang monk fisherman. As for the rest of the rankings, everyone is not interested in paying attention.
