Chapter 30: The Drawing of Lots

The journey went quite smoothly, Yao Xueqing finally brought Li Sibai out of this doomsday swamp,

At this time, the sun was about to set, Yao Xueqing wanted to go back to the sect with Li Sibai to resume his life, but Li Sibai did shirk and had something to do, so Yao Xueqing left first.

Li Sibai was relieved that Cai Yao was in a hurry, afraid that Cai Yao would be in a hurry.

The wounds on his body have almost recovered at the moment, since the innate fighting qi was activated by the old tree spirit, his injuries seem to be getting better quickly, Li Sibai was very surprised for a while, and he couldn't think of a reason for it, but every time he was injured, there was a cool feeling from the wound.

Although the wound recovered, the true qi did not recover safely from me, and Li Sibai did not dare to go too deep into this dark forest, but he went in a few dozen meters and found a big tree that looked very thick, so he sat down and meditated and cultivated by himself, so that on the one hand, he could accelerate the recovery of his true qi, and on the other hand, he could wait for Cai Yao's arrival again.

Sure enough, after a cup of tea, Li Sibai felt a lightness on his body, and something seemed to fall on his shoulder.

Li Sibai opened his eyes and looked sideways, it was his sister, Colorful Xuanniao Caiyao.

Cai Yao looked at him with a concerned face at the moment, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.

"Brother, how is the mission, you are not injured!"

Li Sibai hurriedly showed the wound to Cai Yao, "Don't worry, everything is already healed, I have completed the task!"

"Really, that's great!" Cai Yao was so happy that she pecked Li Sibai lightly on her face and hands, although she was still a bird at the moment, Li Sibai still blushed, but quickly recovered her look.

"Let's go, let's go home!"

Cai Yao flew into Li Sibai's arms, and they quickly returned to the Xuantian Sword Sect.

There were no words that day, and all the outer disciples returned to rest, waiting for the second round of competition.

After the first day's Xuan-level hunting mission, a total of fifteen people entered the second round of exams this time.

In the second round of the exam, all the disciples will be divided into 8 groups for a 1-on-1 competition, and the competition will be completed in one ring.

Li Sibai was called to draw lots early in the morning, the place of the lottery was in the vestibule of the inner door, Li Sibai came here early, it was no one else who presided over the lottery ceremony, Li Sibai also knew, it was He Tianshu, the disciple of the head of the Xuantian Sword Sect, who sat down,

He Tianshu saw Li Sibai coming, and said to him with a smile:

"Xiaobai is here, but I heard Xue Qing say how powerful you were yesterday, let's open our eyes in a while,"

Li Sibai's face flushed, he wasn't treated like this before, he was often called a waste of wood,

"Senior Brother He, don't laugh at me, if it wasn't for Senior Sister Yao yesterday, I wouldn't have been able to get out,"

He Tianshu looked at Li Sibai's appearance and smiled:

"You know, don't run around next time, that place isn't for fun. ”

Li Sibai looked embarrassed and nodded.

He Tianshu continued: "The people haven't come yet, you wait first, and we'll start drawing lots when the people are here." ”

"Okay, Senior Brother He", Li Sibai arched his hand and waited to the side.

Soon the disciples who participated in the lottery for today's exam all came, among them, Li Sibai knew and unfamiliar, He Tianshu cleared his throat and said: "Junior brothers and sisters, there are a total of fifteen people participating in the second competition this time, I have a wooden box here, there are 16 balls in it, there are 16 numbers in the balls, and each person will draw a ball for a while, which is his own number," As he spoke, he pointed to the open space on the right side of the hall, and everyone looked at it, only to see that there was a large mahogany box there, boxy, with only a small hole on the upper side that allowed an arm to stretch into.

"After the draw this time, from No. 1 to No. 16, No. 2 to No. 15, and so on, the winner of No. 1 and No. 16 in the second round will play against the winner of No. 2 and No. 15, so that the winner is decided in the end, do you understand?"

Everyone nodded their heads one after another, and then a slightly older disciple asked:

"Senior Brother He, there are fifteen people here, and these sixteen balls, isn't there one person who has a bye in the first round?"

He Tianshu looked at him and nodded: "Exactly, there is no opponent's fellow door in the first round of the draw who can have a bye, which is also extremely lucky." ”

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard him say this, and there were many introductions, but they all hoped that they could draw the lucky ball, so that although they could not necessarily enter the inner door, they could have a bye, and the consumption of physical strength and true qi was extremely advantageous.

He Tianshu saw that everyone was discussing, so he said: "You still have any questions, if not, start the lottery now, after the draw will start the first round of 15 into 8 competition, tomorrow the second round of 8 into 4, the day after tomorrow the third round of 4 into 2, the last day to decide this year's champion, the champion of the reward is very rich, to the last day of the head will tell you." ”

"Wow~~" As soon as everyone heard that there was a reward for the first place, there was another discussion, and everyone was even happier this time, but everyone agreed with He Tianshu's statement, so they began to draw lots.

At this time, everyone was staring at the wooden box, He Tianshu paused and said,

"Then everyone will come to the lottery at one time, and after the lottery is completed, come to me with the number to register. ”

After speaking, looking at everyone, everyone gave in and lined up in front of the wooden box.

Li Sibai stood on the edge of the corner before, He Tianshu called the lottery, he didn't rush over, just stood silently at the end of the line, he was called waste wood at the outer gate before, and many people only heard his name and didn't see him, and no one noticed him.

When Li Sibai drew lots, there were only 2 balls in it, He Tianshu smiled at him,

"Xiaobai, it depends on your luck. ”

Li Sibai also smiled at He Tianshu and took a ball casually,

Because he was the last, He Tianshu took out the remaining ball in the box and opened it to see that it was No. 15,

At this time, Li Sibai also opened his ball and looked at his number, which was No. 2.

He Tianshu's eyes widened, he obviously saw Li Sibai's number,

"Xiaobai, are you No. 2?"

"Yes, Senior Brother He, is there any problem?" Li Sibai only looked at his number, and did not pay attention to He Tianshu's movements.

He Tianshu showed the number in his hand to Li Sibai, and Li Sibai was also surprised to close his mouth, and suddenly his whole body had a feeling of pleasure.

At this time, the disciples next to him also reported their numbers to He Tianshu, He Tianshu recorded them one by one, and then quickly filled in their names on a battle map that had already been made, pasted it in the front hall, and everyone gathered around at once.

He Tianshu said: "Let's prepare, fifteen minutes later, No. 1 against No. 16, No. 5 against No. 12 will start first." ”
