In previous years, when the third round had just begun, there would be thirty or forty outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to participate.

Among these outer disciples, there are those who are strong, but there are also those who are slightly weaker. Under normal circumstances, among the thirty or forty disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, maybe half or so were only at the level of being able to pass the previous two rounds of tests. The strength of these Golden Sword disciples is naturally far inferior to those scattered cultivators.

Even if they had gone through the first two rounds of testing and were much more prepared than the scattered cultivators, the gap in strength would still be an obstacle that would be difficult for them to overcome.

In this case, even those casual cultivators may not have entered the state at the beginning and cannot exert 100% of their strength, but after one or two rounds of fighting, their state will slowly be mobilized as the battle progresses.

Eventually, when it was time for these casual teenagers to face the real test, they were basically ready.

However, this year, because of He Zhi, the number of Golden Sword disciples who can enter the third round of selection has been greatly reduced. Moreover, the remaining fifteen Golden Sword disciples could be said to be the most powerful group of people in the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

And those casual cultivators who have just arrived, they don't even know what level of opponent they are facing!

They could only judge the strength of their opponents from their past experience and some information they had heard in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. As a result, their judgment was greatly skewed from the beginning.

Originally, according to the experience of previous years, the scattered cultivators all felt that the strength of these outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect should be slightly inferior to them. But after the two sides really handed over hands, these casual cultivators suddenly realized that their prediction in advance was simply wrong!

First of all, He Zhi came up and made a move to directly kill one of the scattered cultivators. But the battle started and ended too quickly, and the other cultivators didn't have time to react to what was going on. So they were not affected by He Zhi's battle.

But then, not long after He Zhi's battle ended. Another "genius boy" also ushered in a crisp defeat.

Moreover, it was one of the most representative figures among this group of scattered cultivation teenagers who was defeated this time - that Huo Gongzi from the Xiuzhen family!

It should be said that Huo Gongzi's luck was really bad, and he actually won Wang Lu in the first round.

Although when Huo Gongzi inquired before, he also knew that Wang Lu was the most powerful disciple among the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. But Huo Gongzi felt that even if Wang Lu was the strongest among the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he was also one of the strongest cultivators invited by the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!

As the so-called strongest is the strongest, who is afraid of whom? What's more, as we all know, their performance in the selection of the inner sect is often better than that of the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

Therefore, when Huo Gongzi fought on both sides, he felt that he would not lose too much to Wang Lu. But the results are obvious. Huo Gongzi really thought too much. In front of Wang Lu, Huo Gongzi didn't even have the strength to fight back!

Of course, compared with He Zhi, Wang Lu still has to be "gentle" when he treats Huo Gongzi.

After all, he is the strongest outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect in a hundred years, and he always has to pay attention to some demeanor, and it is impossible to ignore it like He Zhi and directly blow the other party out with one move. Therefore, Wang Lu still let Huo Gongzi make two moves.

However, after fully saving Huo Gongzi's face, Wang Lu was also not interested in entangling with Huo Gongzi. Moreover, in the face of an opponent of Huo Gongzi's level, Wang Lu didn't even have the interest in making a sword. He simply reached out directly, and used a move that was very similar to the Heaven Turning Hand, and directly snatched the long sword in Huo Gongzi's hand!

Huo Gongzi himself didn't understand what was going on, and looked at Wang Lu with a confused expression.

"I conceded. Wang Lu turned the long sword around with a smile, pinched the tip of the sword, and handed the hilt back to Huo Gongzi.

After holding the long sword again, Huo Gongzi suddenly understood what had just happened. His face suddenly turned red, and he looked at the long sword handed over by Wang Lu for a long time, and then grabbed it in his hand.

Wang Lu and Huo Gongzi never knew each other, so of course they didn't want to humiliate him. After handing back the long sword, Wang Lu smiled again and arched his hand, and retreated directly to the side.

Huo Gongzi stomped his foot hard, and then walked away with a depressed face. He really didn't expect that he would be defeated in front of Wang Lu so powerlessly!

However, after this round of fighting just now, Huo Gongzi also understood. Wang Lu's strength was too much higher than him, so high that he couldn't even get up from resentment.

Isn't he an outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect? Cultivation should be the same as me, just entering the Dao realm! But how can he be so strong? Everyone is an initiation monk, why is he so strong that I feel like a baby in front of him?

Huo Gongzi walked to the sidelines in despair and was silent for a while, before he remembered and looked at the other competitions that were going on in the field again.

Of course, Huo Gongzi didn't mean anything else. He simply remembered that if he lost this game, it didn't mean that his inside selection journey was over. He's got other games to play in the future.

Moreover, Huo Gongzi also comforted himself that although he lost the first game, it was not painful to lose. Wang Lu's strength is so much higher than him, and it is also a little good for him. That is, the opponent wins easily, and he loses just as easily.

Whether it was Wang Lu or Huo Gongzi, neither of them even sweated, and the battle was over. Then in the next second battle, at least Huo Gongzi's state should be a little stronger than his opponent.

For Huo Gongzi, maybe this can barely be regarded as good news. After comforting himself, Huo Gongzi reluctantly turned his gaze to other battles.

Since he lost his first game, Huo Gongzi naturally wanted to focus on his opponent in the next competition. Therefore, Huo Gongzi directly aimed his eyes at the two people who were numbered one behind him.

However, Huo Gongzi only watched it for a while, and was shocked to find that the competition in this group was almost over!

The Golden Sword disciple from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had already achieved a huge advantage in the battle, and the scattered cultivator boy on the opposite side was just struggling to support himself!

In fact, Huo Gongzi also knew the young man who was a loose cultivator opposite the Golden Sword disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect! Although the other party and Huo Gongzi and their small group of people were not all the way, he still left a very deep impression on Huo Gongzi.

Because when this person first came to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he was extremely arrogant - this is also the reason why he has always refused to join the small circle of Huo Gongzi and Qian Gongzi. This young man was so proud that he didn't bother to praise the stinky feet of Huo Gongzi and Qian Gongzi at all.

Moreover, Huo Gongzi also had a little conflict with him because of this. In the end, with Huo Gongzi's temper, he couldn't do anything to the other party. From this point, you can actually see the strength of this teenager.

He is definitely one of the few people among the many scattered cultivators who make Huo Gongzi deeply fearful.

However, such a proud and powerful guy actually fell into a bitter battle from the beginning!

The outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect are really so powerful? Huo Gongzi only felt unbelievable, and even had a feeling as if he had fallen into a terrifying illusion.

Next, Huo Gongzi hurriedly turned his gaze to the side of the arena again—that was the direction of Qian Gongzi.

Although Huo Gongzi and Qian Gongzi have been fighting openly and secretly in small groups, and they don't look down on each other, but for Qian Gongzi, the son of Jindan Zhenren, Huo Gongzi still has to recognize his strength.

Moreover, when Huo Gongzi drew lots just now, he focused on the opponents drawn by Qian Gongzi. After all, both of them are characters in the same small circle, and it is inevitable that there will be some different meanings.

Huo Gongzi saw just now that what Qian Gongzi drew was a little-known figure among the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. At that time, Huo Gongzi was still a little jealous of Qian Gongzi's good luck. I felt that he had pinched a soft persimmon. Among all the opponents who can be drawn, it may be that He Zhizhi is better than Qian Gongzi's sign.

However, after a little glance, Huo Gongzi realized that he was still very wrong! In this test, none of them had any good signs at all!

Every lottery they draw is a lot!

In the confrontation of the little-known outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Qian Gongzi's situation was even worse than the person Huo Gongzi had seen before!

Even, Huo Gongzi didn't have time to turn his eyes again, and saw that Qian Gongzi had been killed by the other party with several swords in a row. After barely supporting it for a few times, he was stabbed in the right arm by the opponent's sword, and the long sword in his hand was also twisted and flew up, falling more than ten meters away.

Seeing this, Huo Gongzi's heart was already half cold. He hurriedly bricked again, roughly swept around the entire arena, and then found that on almost every field, their casual cultivation was at a great disadvantage.

And the only few places where they were inextricably separated were the battles between these scattered cultivators—because the number of scattered cultivators was greater than those outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Therefore, there were several scattered cultivators who could only be placed in the same group as the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect when they drew lots.

Originally, these casual cultivators thought that these people were some unlucky people, and they were a little gloating about them. But now they suddenly realized that these guys were unlucky, and they were clearly the lucky ones who escaped the disaster!

The first competition came to an end quickly. In this battle, many of the scattered cultivators were almost completely defeated. Fifteen casual cultivators who faced He Zhi and the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were not able to achieve victory!

In the first battle, Wei Yue'er also faced an outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and he was also defeated. However, compared to the vast majority of other casual cultivation teenagers, Wei Yue'er's battle was much better to lose.

At least, Wei Yue'er and that outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect fought until the end! This battle of hers dragged on even longer than the battle between the two teams of loose cultivators!

Moreover, after losing to her opponent, Wei Yue'er showed obvious unconvincing on her face.

In the process of fighting, Wei Yue'er obviously saw several good opportunities to defeat the enemy! However, Wei Yue'er's own body was obviously not prepared. She tried to seize the opportunity several times, but each time she was half a beat slow to react, and her opponent barely coped with it.

As a result, when it was delayed to the end, Wei Yue'er herself revealed a flaw, and she was immediately caught by the opponent with great acuteness.

However, although Wei Yue'er lost this battle, she was more confident than before. Because Wei Yue'er could feel that after practicing the exercises taught by He Zhi, she had obviously become stronger than before! At least the outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect just now was much worse than herself!

It's just that the other party's preparation for this battle is too sufficient. Mentally and physically, the other person is in the best shape. However, because Wei Yue'er had been greeted by people in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect for a while ago, her own cultivation was inevitably a little slack.

So in the first battle, Wei Yue'er obviously hadn't entered the state of really fighting a strong enemy!

Fortunately, this round of competition does not end with one game. If you lose this game, you still have a chance to win it back! Wei Yue'er pursed her lips and thought unconvinced.

After the first round of competition, everyone quickly exchanged opponents, and then the second competition began immediately. In the middle of this, the few Inner Sect disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who were in charge of presiding over this selection did not even have a second of rest left.

With the lessons learned from the previous round of competition, when it came to this second battle, the attitude of the scattered cultivators was obviously much more solemn than before. They all restrained their arrogance when they first came to the arena, and they all honestly fought with the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

Although in this round of battle, these scattered cultivators were still completely at a disadvantage, it was obvious that the time they had held out under the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had obviously increased compared to the first battle.

In the first game, almost half of these casual cultivators ended up in defeat within ten moves. However, in the second battle, the vast majority of the scattered cultivators had supported more than thirty moves—after all, their own strength was actually no worse than these outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. The huge gap between the two sides in the first round of the meeting is not a reflection of real strength at all.
