Chapter 207: The Contest Begins

Due to the large number of participants, the preliminary round was held at the beginning. Tens of thousands of monks entered the competition, some of them won and lost with a single blow, while others fought so hard that it took several days. The judges are all god-turning monks with strong divine senses, and each of them covers hundreds of games, protects the contestants, and decides the winners.

Su Aotian's aura reserve is undoubtedly outstanding among the Yuanying monks, especially the first stage is at most the middle Yuanying stage, and he is even more invincible. But he didn't show his strength to destroy the withering and decaying, on the one hand, to keep his eyes on the light, and on the other hand, to learn from his opponents.

His cultivation is all his own exploration, although the aura is strong, but he is really lacking in the use of skills, and in this regard, the elite of the sect who have advanced exercises since he was a child and have been taught by his teacher Dun Dun have obvious advantages. In the case of the lack of difference in the reserves of aura, these people were able to combine more subtle supernatural attacks and use aura to the extreme, so that they could defeat opponents who were equal in cultivation.

It's some casual cultivation, and in the years of cultivation, he has also explored and summarized many methods and techniques that are suitable for him, and these, through his powerful divine sense, Su Aotian can clearly observe in the battle, as if it was specially drilled for him, and he really benefited a lot.

Su Aotian's game dragged on until the opponent had no tricks left every time, and then relied on his strong aura to force the opponent to admit defeat or defeat. Due to the large number of participants, and the fact that it was now the preliminaries, there were not many people paying attention, so he did not attract much attention tepidly.

However, some players from small and medium-sized sects wanted to stand out in this conference and pursue a faster and better end of the competition, which won a lot of attention and attracted everyone's attention. Murong Qiubai and others also went to cheer for him, but the venue was empty, and the competition was randomly assigned, so it was not easy to find him, but I was also very happy to see him win every game.

There is also Yuan Hengbo who pays attention to him, so it is much more convenient for her, and she can know Su Aotian's match and battle situation today without going to the scene. After Su Aotian of Weiyang Palace showed his strong strength, Yuan Hengbo knew that Su Aotian had no problem standing out from the preliminaries, but he was worried about the rematch. The opponents are all in the late Yuan Infant period or the Great Perfection realm, not to mention, although the top forces such as Chengtianmen have given up the direct election quota, but their disciples are even more powerful than the owners of these direct election quotas, and they do this just to sell personal favors to other sects to avoid the disciples of these first-class forces being eliminated prematurely.

Although Su Aotian's matter in Weiyang Palace was suppressed by the major forces, how could they not tell their contestants after they went back, and they must not be careless when they meet such a person. And this is an official game, not a gambling fight that is close to a game in Weiyang Palace, both sides will go all out, no one will be as arrogant as *, standing and being beaten and not fighting back. After knowing Su Aotian's power, maybe he will take the lead. Su Aotian showed a level far beyond that of the Yuanying Cultivator, the disciples of those top forces are not without such strength, the painstaking cultivation of the sect is not in vain after all, when encountering such an opponent, who dares to say that he will win?

The preliminaries lasted for a full month before they came to an end. Since there were more than 10,000 monks in the late Yuan Infant period who signed up for the competition, the preliminaries were stopped when there were more than 90,000 people left. Coupled with the more than 10,000 monks in the late Yuan Infant period, there are more than 100,000 people in total, divided into more than 10,000 groups, ten people in each group, drawn lots, two-by-two, and the loser is eliminated.

The five winners will draw a direct place and enter the final round, and the remaining four will face off in pairs, and the winner will compete for the last place in the final. Only the last winner will be determined in each group, and the more than 10,000 winners will be drawn completely randomly, with 10 people in each group, and another game will be played. More than 1,000 people were decided to enter the semi-finals.

When there are fewer or more than 1,200 people in the semi-finals, several of the groups are reduced or joined. The competition method is the same as above, the final 120 people will enter the final competition together with the eight predetermined direct selection quota contestants, and these eight direct selection places will lead the way, and they will not meet each other in advance, and they will face off in pairs, eliminating half of each round until the final winner is determined. The two losers in the final will have an additional round of duels to determine the third place.

After the preliminary round of the preliminaries, a three-day break was arranged. During this period, many monks have emerged and become famous. In addition to the cultivation of Murong Qiubai and the others, they also watched a lot of games, and they also informed Su Aotian of some news about these people. According to them, the most popular one of them is the only one in the Yuan Ying group of this competition, who was specially allowed to participate by Nishang Yuntian, and he actually passed all the way and broke through from the first round, which is impressive.

The three days passed in a hurry, and the group draw was all over, and Su Aotian was assigned to the 877th group, and the leading monk of the late Yuan Infant period was from the Shennong Sect of Zhuque Prefecture, which was only a medium-strength sect and was known for its alchemy. The contestants who can pass the first round are basically no weaker, there are very few in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, and Su Aotian's cultivation in the middle of the Yuan Infant is almost the weakest.

In the first round of the competition, Su Aotian passed smoothly. Although the opponent is also in the middle of the Yuan Infant period, and his water attribute supernatural powers are also quite extraordinary, after studying the use of his supernatural powers, Su Aotian used the wood system to defend, step by step, and finally forced the opponent to admit defeat helplessly. In the second round, he was not so lucky to draw a direct place, so he had to compete with the other four again. This time, the opponent is a female cultivator, a double cultivation of wood and water, which is somewhat similar to his situation, and he has changed the water attribute supernatural power and practiced it into an ice-based supernatural power, which is even more wonderful. This time, Su Aotian used water against ice and wood against wood, relying on his strong aura to bully people, consume his opponent, and win again.

In the third round, he ran into the late Yuanying monk of this group, the contestant of Shennongmen. Because the opponent is good at alchemy, his divine sense is quite extraordinary, and he is particularly meticulous in the use of supernatural powers, and basically does not waste a trace of spiritual energy. Moreover, this person is a wood fire dual spirit root, and he has also cultivated compound supernatural powers, Su Aotian fought fiercely with him, and saw the ingenuity of the other party's composite supernatural power combination, and after careful consideration, he benefited a lot. Although it took a lot of effort, he still won the battle, and in the chagrin and surprised eyes of the other party, he entered the final competition for the final place after conceding.

The opponent is also a monk in the middle of the Yuan Infant, and he is infinitely close to the late stage, and when he sees that it is not the late Yuan Infant monk who has entered the finals, he is not only overjoyed, but also feels that the victory is in his hands. However, as soon as I fought, I felt that I was restrained everywhere, and I was at a disadvantage in an all-round way, and I didn't find a chance to win from beginning to end.

Su Aotian made it to the final without much effort, but under his control, this group of matches was not the first to be completed. Before him, six or seven out of ten groups had completed the competition, and among them, the most prominent was the monk who was in the limelight. According to Murong Qiubai, this person's competition is basically a one-trick victory, and Yuanying Monk rarely has his opponent. Su Aotian was also interested, so he asked for his name and learned that it was a disciple of the Gu family, one of the four famous families in Xuanzhou, named Gu Yuntian.

This time the break was a bit longer, as some of the group matches were very close, and some of the participants took days to decide the winner. By the time all the group winners were decided, and the winners were given three days to rest, Su Aotian had already rested for half a month.

The final list and grouping appeared on crystal boards large and small in various parts of the city. Murong Qiubai and the others had already gone to see it, and came back to tell Su Aotian that the current contestants, in addition to Gu Yuntian, the monk of the Jiedan, there were three people in the middle of the Yuan Infant Period, not counting Su Aotian, and the other two, one was Xiao Moyan from Chengtianmen, and the other was Du Shenglong from Fengqingmen in Suzaku Prefecture. The rest of the contestants are all monks above the late Yuan Infant stage, including the favorite to win the Yuan Infant Group in this conference, Sima Shucai of Chengtianmen.

Su Aotian was drawn to the thirty-sixth group this time, and one more person was randomly added to the same group, a total of eleven people. After the draw, one person was lucky enough to enter the second round directly, Su Aotian and the other nine people were randomly assigned to two groups, after eliminating five people, the remaining six people will face off in pairs, and the three winners will have to draw lots again, and the unlucky two will have to play one more round to compete for the qualification of the final competition.

The first opponent this time is a female cultivator, not to mention that she looks like a flower and jade, her magical powers are much more powerful than the monk in Shennongmen, and a woman is a rare golden spiritual root, and under her seemingly weak appearance, she is really extraordinary with a golden supernatural power. Su Aotian used the wooden shield as a wall to block her sharpness, and finally squeezed her into a corner, irresistible, still struggling, and finally was sentenced to defeat by the judge monk, only to stare at Su Aotian hatefully and leave, as if he was blaming him for not understanding the amorous feelings, and destroying flowers with his hot hands.

The second round was drawn to the lucky person of the first round, this person was very happy, he felt that he had a bye in the first round, and the weakest person in the group was drawn in the second round. It's a pity that others are not as good as heaven, and they never expected that this weakest monk in this group was precisely the strongest aura in this group, so that in the end, Su Aotian was not consumed, but he died first. With a look of disbelief, this person said goodbye to this conference.
