Chapter 981: Contradictions intensify

The first round of the competition was held for three consecutive days, and the first round had a total of more than 30,000 games, which was the competition with the largest number of participants, the largest number of games, and the longest time.

There are not many highlights in the first round, because the cultivator number is completely randomly assigned, and there are not many cases where opponents are evenly matched, and even many games have people who automatically admit defeat, and Xiao Cheng's opponent in the first game automatically admits defeat.

On the fourth day of the preliminary round, he entered the second round, and the number of cultivators in the second round had been eliminated by half in the first round, and the number of games was reduced by half, and the progress was also accelerated, and the second round of the competition, which was completed in only one day, Xiao Cheng also did not encounter an opponent worthy of a battle.

On the morning of the fifth day, from the preliminary round to the third round, the third round of competition was completed in just one morning, and in the afternoon, it quickly entered the fourth round, with only sixteen cultivators left in each group.

The sixteen cultivators in each group have come up by relying on their strength after three competitions, and their strength should not be underestimated, they are all the leaders of the younger generation, and the battles in the ring are becoming more and more exciting and intense, regardless of victory or defeat, the number of injured cultivators has gradually increased, and even some people have fallen.

As the competition became more and more exciting, the passion of the cultivators outside the court became higher and higher, and the shouts came and went, many people roared their throats, and the betting funds in the competition market also increased.

In the past five days, Xiao Cheng has competed four times, except for one Western cultivator, the other cultivators seem to have discussed it, and they all collectively admit defeat and surrender, and the Western powerhouse was defeated by him in three moves, and the journey was smooth sailing, without encountering obstacles.

In the past five days, Xiao Cheng's attention has been almost entirely focused on selling pills and collecting information on cultivators, because there are tens of millions of cultivators gathered in Kyushu City, and his pills are in good condition, in large quantities, and selective, so the sales are very good, and the price is relatively high, and he has made a lot of money, nearly a thousand pills, and sold more than 4,000 high-grade spirit stones.

Counting the spirit stones sold for the sale of pills, plus the spirit stones for the sale of goods, he can barely scrape together enough 10,000 high-grade spirit stones, 10,000 high-grade spirit stones is definitely not a small amount, a first-class sect can't hold so much money at one time, and this 10,000 high-grade spirit stones will be used as his gambling capital.

With 10,000 high-grade spirit stones in his hand, Xiao Cheng was inevitably a little excited, with this money, and it was not a problem for him to use the pill to manipulate the doubling ratio.

Although there are a lot of forces in this ring, no one has the advantage of pills like him, how many alchemists in the world can refine five or six pills in batches?

In order to manipulate the results of the game and win the profits, most of these forces use some indiscriminate means, such as spending money to buy off the cultivators, making the cultivators fake and releasing water, directly admitting defeat, seizing the cultivators' handles to blackmail the cultivators, or more directly, making the cultivators stumbling and making the cultivators unable to play.

These methods have a certain effect, but they don't dare to stretch their hands too long, especially they don't dare to attack the cultivators of the Great Gate Sect, and they also have to take care of the nine places, so the later they go, the less able these forces are to manipulate the competition.

The cultivators left in the later stage are basically cultivators of the Great Gate Sect, and these forces don't dare to use their means on these people, and in the later stage, how can those strong people be so easy to be manipulated?

However, Xiao Cheng's methods are different from those of these forces, directly sending forbidden pills to people, etc., these forces are trying their best to make people lose, and he is trying his best to make people win, which is more smooth and easier to succeed at a glance, and who doesn't want to win? These cultivators will also be grateful to him.

Of course, Yiqiē is operating in secret, he will not let others know that he is involved, he doesn't care about the gratitude of others, and making a fortune in a muffled voice is the key.

As for the unlucky ones who may lose the fight or even die because of him, he is not a good man and a woman, and he does not have a bodhisattva heart, so he can't care so much, but he will try his best to make some cultivators of hostile forces become unlucky, such as cultivators who have a grudge against the Sword Pavilion, such as evil cultivators, such as the strong people in the West.

This contest is not only a contest between the East and the West, but also a contest between the two camps of good and evil and a contest between various forces.

In the evening, the remnant sun was like blood, and the fourth round of the preliminary round ended miserably, and many of the winning cultivators had blood on their bodies and were helped down from the ring by their senior brothers and younger brothers.

The fourth round was much more intense than the first round, all the cultivators did their best, and no one was willing to give up the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Inner Ruins to practice.

The afterglow of the sunset shone on the sparkling Lihu Lake, and the Ghost reflected the afterglow of the sunset, gently swaying with the wind, Xiao Cheng in the cabin was busy at this time, constantly combing through the useful information collected by Nie Mingfeng and Tu Yuanjia.

Tomorrow morning, the preliminary round will be held from the fifth round to the seventh round, which will be the most fierce competition in the preliminary round, and the number of people in these three rounds is relatively small, and there are only eight people in the fifth round, so the number of matches is relatively small, and it will be completed in the morning, and it will enter the semi-finals in the afternoon.

The fifth to seventh rounds are all connected together, and there is no time to operate in between, so it is necessary to complete all the arrangements for tomorrow tonight, although there are only eight people in a group, but there are more than 1,900 people in two hundred and forty teams, and it is a huge amount of work to sort out.

There are three conditions for selecting cultivators, one of which is that the attention of this competition is relatively high, and both cultivators are relatively famous, and they are disciples of the Great Gate Sect, etc.

Second, the disparity in strength between the two is quite obvious, and most people know that only in this way can a cultivator who is considered to be the most likely to lose turn defeat into victory, and he can have a high return.

Third, the unlucky ones who will be defeated into victories are best hostile cultivators, and must not be cultivators who are familiar with each other or cultivators of their own sect......

In this way, the range of choices has become much smaller, and the uncertainties of manipulating the competition by other forces can be avoided, and these people are not so easy to be indulged in.

At the same time, it is not only necessary to consider the fifth round of the competition, but also to deduce who and who may meet in the sixth and seventh rounds, etc., because there is no time to operate in the middle, so it is necessary to use tonight's time to lay out in advance, and the further you go, the more you will make money.

Xiao Cheng himself and the two clones continued to sort out the collected cultivator information, and it took three hours to screen out the cultivators who were worth investing in, and a total of fifty cultivators were screened, covering more than forty rings, and in principle, they did not operate twice on the same cultivator.

Xiao Cheng rubbed his aching eyebrows, since he didn't go to school, it was the first time he had read so many words, his eyes were a little painful, and he commanded at the door: "Le Cheng, go and call Commander Nie and Commander Tu!"

Soon, Tu Yuanjia and Nie Mingfeng came to the cabin, Xiao Cheng handed over the two written lists to Tu Yuanjia and Nie Mingfeng, and instructed: "I have told you in detail about the competition before, and now I will send the pill out according to the list."

Everyone has a note behind them, and they will be given different pills according to the notes, which are forbidden pills and healing pills!"

Xiao Cheng said, handing over the prepared pills to the two of them, several of the cultivators he chose were injured today, and the injuries of the cultivators today are obvious to all, which will affect the judgment of gamblers, and it will also become a condition for him to operate.

"Remember, don't let them know who we are, you two take your descendants to finish, it's best to cover your faces, if they ask, just say that we live by gambling, hope they can win, we earn money, they also want to win, each takes what he needs!" Xiao Cheng advised.

"Yes, my lord, my subordinates will definitely go all out to complete the task assigned by the adult!" The two took the pill and the list, nodded in unison, and excitedly took the order.

After the two left, Xiao Cheng came to the window, looked at the stars outside the window, rubbed his hands, was slightly excited, and said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of harvest will be tomorrow, I hope I won't be disappointed, the emperor has lived up to his wishes, he has been preparing for so long, he should have a little harvest!"

On the second day, the sky was gloomy, there was a light rain, the wind seemed to be colder, winter seemed to have come, but the weather did not affect the enthusiasm of the cultivators in the slightest, and before the competition began, Wanliu Mountain was already crowded with people, and the voices of people were extremely lively, all talking about who won and who lost.

In just one morning, if you want to stand out from the eight people and enter the semi-finals, you need to fight three high-intensity battles, with little rest time in between, and if you are injured halfway, it is likely that you will not be able to enter the semi-finals.

Therefore, the fight is more intense and fast, and the temptation link is omitted, and the strongest killer weapon is used to end the battle, on the one hand, to avoid injury, and on the other hand, to save true qi.

As the competition progressed, soon the fifth and sixth rounds passed, and the seventh round began, and there were only two people left in each group, and the cheers on Wanliu Mountain were even more enthusiastic, and everyone's faces were full of excitement, and it was inevitable that their blood would boil in it.

This is the last round of the preliminary round, to decide who can enter the semi-finals, the competition is the most fierce, the strong people who can stay in the group are the leaders of the younger generation, there is no weakling, this round is full of highlights, which 240 people can enter the semi-finals?

Xiao Cheng sat in the stands, not aware of the imminent play, and was still calculating how much money he should be able to make in the first two rounds.

In the first two rounds, he bought twenty-five cultivators to win, fifteen cultivators got his wish, and the other ten cultivators all failed miserably, no way, the elixir is not omnipotent, but the profit is more than the loss.

The remaining twenty-five games are all invested in the final round, and there are fewer cultivators in the last round, and the attention of the off-court cultivators is more concentrated, and the amount of funds betted on the handicap has also increased several times, and the profit will be more.

"Hey, what do you want, it's time for us to play, this is the last game of the preliminary round!" Ye Lingdie stood up, saw that Xiao Cheng was wandering, patted Xiao Cheng's shoulder and reminded.

Xiao Cheng immediately came back to his senses, and saw that many cultivators had risen into the air one after another and flew towards the floating light ring, and the people in the stands had left for a while, so he immediately got up and said with a smile: "It's good that Ling'er reminded me, otherwise I would have forgotten about it!"

"You, I really don't know what to say about you, the last game is very critical, your opponent is not weak, he is a Western Quadruple Heaven Magician, it is said that he is well-known in the West, be more careful, lest the boat capsize in the gutter!" Ye Lingdie was slightly annoyed, and glanced at Xiao Cheng.

"En, what Ling'er said is!" Xiao Cheng smiled, remembering that his opponent was not too weak, he immediately raised his spirit, and then said: "Ling'er should also be more careful, your opponent is not weak!"

"You still need to say this!" Ye Lingdie gave Xiao Cheng a big roll of the eyes again, and flew to the ring in the wind, Xiao Cheng smiled, crossed the sword in the air, and rushed to the ring......

This round is the last game of the preliminary round, and only 480 people are left from more than 60,000 people, leaving behind all the young powerhouses with superb strength, including almost all the famous powerhouses of the younger generation, Jing Jihai, Yan Taiqing, Ning Qianxi, Ye Lingdie, Si Yixiu...... Almost everyone who could be named flew into the ring.

Xiao Cheng flew to the ring, and at the same time, a huge black shadow also flew to the ring, a pair of dragon wings were extremely eye-catching, of course he was Jing Qihai, the two nodded tacitly and flew to their respective rings.

Xiao Cheng and Jing Qihai flew to the ring at the same time, immediately causing the cheers of tens of millions of cultivators in Wanliu Mountain, and the sound waves were rolling, wanting to tear apart the clouds of the high sky.

There is no doubt that the two are the most famous powerhouses of the younger generation, putting aside the special case of bloody and ruthless people who were born out of nowhere, the two are definitely the strongest of the younger generation, and they are the two most powerful people in the East this time, which attracts the most attention.

"These two people are both strong men in our Kyushu, one is the Immortal Sect, the other is the Demon Sect, I don't know if the two of them will meet, which one is stronger and which is weaker?"

"Don't worry, with the strength of the two of them, they will definitely be able to enter the finals, and they will meet sooner or later, I think it should be that Uncle Xiao is stronger, Uncle Xiao has never lost!"

"That's not necessarily, the Great Demon King broke through the Yuan Infant one step ahead of Uncle Xiao, and his cultivation may be higher than Uncle Xiao's!"

"I hope that the two of them will meet at the end, if they meet at the beginning of the finals, they will definitely lose one, it is better to kill more Western powerhouses, these Western powerhouses are too vicious, they have killed many cultivators in my East, and my senior brother almost died in the hands of the dragon knight. ”

With the progress of the competition, the contradiction between the Eastern and Western cultivators has also been completely intensified, this time there are more than 30 Quadruple Heaven powerhouses in the East, which is equivalent to the Dongfang Yuanying powerhouse, and most of them can win the group stage in the group, so they snatched the place for the Dongfang cultivators to enter the semi-finals.

Moreover, Western cultivators were extremely ruthless, and many cultivators were lost in the hands of Western cultivators. Western cultivators immediately became the number one public enemy of Eastern cultivators, eager to kill and then kill quickly, and the battle between the two camps of good and evil had been put on the back burner.

Just when everyone was talking, someone suddenly shouted: "Look, Uncle Xiao's opponent is the Western magician Cowell!"

Wanliu Mountain was immediately quiet, and everyone's eyes looked at the No. 10 ring where Xiao Cheng was, Xiao Cheng's opponent was really a blonde man, and countless cultivators were indignant, this Cowell had already killed two Eastern powerhouses, it was really hateful.

"It's really retribution, I met Uncle Xiao!"

"Uncle Junior, kill him, kill him!" shouted countless people.

――

The state has not been good in recent days, some Kavin, there is only one change tonight, and I will make up for it tomorrow, I'm sorry......
