Chapter 36: The Contest Is Approaching
Tang Tianyu's words of threatening Lin Yan before leaving had already spread among the disciples of the Fourth Mountain Peak, during which Li Shiyi also came to Lin Yan several times, telling him that if he wanted to leave the Fourth Mountain Peak, he must call her, or ask his grandfather to take him.
Lin Yan knew that Li Shiyi was afraid that he would be hacked by Tang Tianyu, what the disciples of the Tang Sect learned was poisoning and assassination, Tang Tianyu was the best among them, and Li Shiyi's worries were not out of nowhere.
In order not to let her worry about herself, Lin Yan also agreed to come down, but she still went to the back mountain to practice every morning.
Li Shiyi also knows Lin Yan's habit, but the back mountain he went to also belongs to the boundary of the fourth peak, as long as he doesn't go to the deep mountains, Li Shiyi won't say anything.
In the eyes of everyone, Lin Yan seemed to be really afraid of Tang Tianyu's intimidation in the months before the competition, and he never went out once.
Li Chunfeng has also been busy in the past few months, and he did not guide Lin Yan as before, but also taught him the basics of some other secret weapons, Lin Yan basically mastered almost everything, and the rest is only practice makes perfect.
Tangmen's annual ring tournament has finally begun in the long-awaited wait.
On the first day, the atmosphere of the entire Tang Gate seemed to be lively, and Li Chunfeng took almost all the people from the Fourth Peak to the main peak together. There were thirty people in attendance, and the rest basically didn't want to miss the event, even as spectators.
Although the main peak was more than twice as large as the other peaks, it didn't seem to be able to accommodate all the disciples of the Tang Sect together. Lin Yan followed Li Chunfeng and nearly a hundred disciples of the Fourth Mountain Peak to stand in a clear space and form a square formation.
Lin Yan looked around, this open space was very large, and there were several teams like himself, and he roughly counted them, and it was exactly seven. And judging from the position where he came in, his team was exactly the fourth.
Although everyone is a disciple of the Tang Sect, they are not on the same mountain peak on weekdays, and there are few opportunities to meet each other, and most of the seven teams are looking around curiously and whispering in whispers.
Lin Yan noticed that Li Chunfeng and a few old men were all together, talking and laughing and greeting each other, Lin Yan secretly observed those old men, presumably they should be the elders on other mountain peaks.
Looking at the clearing, there are probably more than 800 people, these more than 800 people are not ordinary people, all of them are martial artists who have been cultivating for many years, Lin Yan couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly, it was the first time he had seen so many people who practiced martial arts gathered together at the same time.
Not long after, Tang Ao led more than a dozen people to appear in everyone's sight, and the more than ten people behind him were old and young, and Tang Tianyu was among them.
Tang Ao came to the front of the eight hundred people, stood still, cleared his throat, and suddenly there was silence in the clearing. Tang Ao nodded with satisfaction, and then spoke: "Yes, you are all the elites of my Tang Sect, the pillars of the future, it is precisely because of your existence that our Tang Sect will endure for a long time!"
This was the first time Lin Yan had seen Tang Ao himself, he didn't have an excited expression on his face like the other disciples, but carefully observed the old man.
I'm about the same age as my grandfather. Lin Yan thought in his heart, although his face was pale, but he was indeed full of temperament when he spoke, he was neatly dressed in a white shirt, and his hands were unusually wide in sleeves, just standing there simply, not angry and arrogant, Lin Yan only felt that a momentum went straight to the sky, only in his grandfather's body did he feel such a momentum, although he was practicing hidden weapons and poisonous skills, but the momentum emanating from his body really made people feel angry.
Tang Ao said again: "I won't say anything more, compared to you, you all know the rules and importance of this game, and a few of us old immortals will also watch your game the whole way, come on, boys." ”
Lin Yan was very sensitive to breath, and he clearly felt that Tang Ao was just a few simple words, and the many disciples around him were all gearing up, and their spirits were extremely excited, and they wanted to show off their skills.
"The elders lead your disciples, come with me!" Immediately after, Tang Ao took the lead in turning around and leading these people towards a spacious mountain road.
The disciples of the Tang Sect have basically experienced this kind of competition many times, and even the newcomers have more or less heard about it from other people's mouths, and the venue of the competition will naturally not be the main peak.
Although there were many people, they were not flustered at all in the process of walking, as if they had rehearsed many times, and the speed of the disciples was still very fast, and after a while, they came to an open space that was more than ten times larger than before.
Lin Yan took a cursory look, it seemed that this place was not an empty land before, but was cleared out later. There were nine high platforms in the clearing, one in each of the eight directions, each with a marking, and eight high platforms around a larger platform in the middle.
Needless to say, Lin Yan also understood in his heart that this was the ring used for the game. There are many small seats around the ring, which should be for other disciples to watch. In the north and south, there is a row of audience seats, this row of seats are all carefully made, you can see the difference at a glance, it should be the position of Tang Ao and others.
Sure enough, after Tang Ao came here, he took the lead in the middle of the place and sat down unceremoniously. The rest of the things are naturally arranged, and he doesn't need to worry about it anymore. Tang Tianyu and the others who followed behind him did not come over, but they all had their own places. Since Tang Ao was here, Tang Tianyu didn't dare to be presumptuous at all, and he didn't see Lin Yan's team.
All the disciples also followed the elder to the place where they belonged to the mountain peak, and they all found a place to sit.
Because of the competition system, this competition will last for several days, and the names of the disciples participating in the competition are also reported by the elders, and there are many deacons from the Tang Sect
Referee, disciples who do not participate in the competition can leave at any time, but they are not allowed to affect the people who are competing, and the participants must wait here, if it is his turn, the referee will naturally call his name and tell him to go to the number one ring to compete. Until then, theoretically, no one knew who the opponent was.
In the first round of the competition, more than 300 registered disciples drew lots to conduct a one-on-one duel, and the loser entered a group, and the winner entered a group. The losing disciple will play a game in the losing group, and the loser will be eliminated again, and the winner will also enter the winning group.
Such a rule will make these 300 people brush down 100 people in the first round, and this cruel competition system also makes everyone do their best, which is even more exciting.
