Chapter 0715: Top Eight (I)
No one would have thought that in the process of selection, there would be people who would enter the foundation building period, although building the foundation does not mean that they will be able to enter the inner door, but in the selection of the battle to achieve the foundation building, this understanding is naturally different from usual. γMairuo Debutγ
Although many people want to see the genius in trouble, but at this moment, Meng Jinan has entered the foundation building period, and all the disciples still have to come forward to congratulate him.
Among all of them, only the enemy did not come forward to congratulate, in his opinion, it doesn't matter whether Meng Jinan has built a foundation or not, even if he enters the inner door, it is just a foundation, even if Meng Jinan really finds his own way, it is even more difficult to get married.
Seeing that the enemy did not move, the knife madness hesitated, and did not step forward, and the behavior of the two couldn't help but be seen by Hu Tongfang and Qian Ji, although they didn't say anything, but they were always a little dissatisfied with the two of them in their hearts.
Qian Ji sighed, originally he admired the hatred spirit, not for anything else, but because the hatred spirit had been able to break through in his dojo, but now looking at his behavior, it was inevitably disappointing.
Seeing that everyone was also congratulated, Hu Tongfang announced the end of the competition, and at the same time, also announced the first eight candidates for the second round of selection.
"Qi refining double heaven disciple Xu Bansheng, enter the winner's group, and advance to the top eight!"
As soon as these words came out, many disciples came back to their senses, yes, Xu Bansheng actually entered the top eight, and they couldn't help but look at each other, which means that Xu Bansheng will almost inevitably get one of the five places.
Not to mention the inner gate's ambiguous attitude towards Xu Bansheng, just because he was able to enter the top eight with a mere Qi refining double heaven, there must be one of these five people. This has nothing to do with whether Xu Bansheng is Xu Bansheng or not, any disciple who can do this, I am afraid that he will be taken seriously by the inner gate, not to mention that the inner door attaches great importance to Xu Bansheng.
The enemy spirit seems to be unconcerned, but his heart is also extremely unhappy.
The rest of the disciples were a little distracted, and they didn't know if it was time to step forward to congratulate Xu Bansheng.
It was Meng Jinan, although he was defeated, he became the core of the audience, and at this moment Hu Tongfang announced the result, he knew that it was time for him to return the position of the protagonist to Xu Bansheng. So he bowed his hand to Xu Bansheng again and said: "Congratulations to Senior Brother Xu for being in the top eight, and at the same time, I wish Senior Brother Xu to make persistent efforts in the next game and win the selection in one fell swoop." Senior Brother Xu can defeat me, but he deserves it. After the selection, the junior brother will go down the mountain to practice, and I can't wait to go back to my hometown to visit my parents. See you in the future, when you and I return to the sect, I will thank my junior brother again for today's great gift. β
This is very serious, one is to express his gratitude again, but to help Xu Bansheng block the mouths of many people.
Even Meng Jinan said that Xu Bansheng's victory was well deserved, and who would dare to question it to the face of others except the enemy soul? Moreover, because Meng Jinan had entered the foundation building period, at this moment, even if the enemy soul, who had been ranked above Meng Jinan on the strength list, I am afraid it would be inconvenient to weaken the gold content of Xu Bansheng's victory. If you don't accept it, you can pass Mengjinan Pass first.
Hu Tongfang announced that the fifth disciple would come forward to draw lots, and everyone then shifted their eyes to the light curtain.
Pan Dongliu and Niu Stool also had a lot of emotion, they were actually ready, if Xu Bansheng drew any of them, they would not hesitate to give up this game, so as to ensure that Xu Bansheng entered the quarterfinals. Unexpectedly, Xu Bansheng won the first game without controversy, and after drawing Meng Jinan's signature, although Meng Jinan's practice of challenging the Yin and Yang Positive and Negative Five Formations will definitely make some disciples have a lot of contempt for Xu Bansheng in the future, but Xu Bansheng won after all, and the two of them couldn't help Xu Bansheng if they wanted to, and Xu Bansheng didn't use the Suixing Gate given to him by Pan Dongliu at all.
Immediately didn't bother to care what kind of lottery the No. 5 disciple drawn, the two walked in front of Xu Bansheng together, one of them took one of Xu Bansheng's hands, and said together: "Senior Brother Xu, congratulations, the quota for this training and walking has already fallen into the bag." β
Xu Bansheng smiled faintly and said, "But not necessarily, no one knows what the inner door thinks." β
As soon as he said this, Pan Dongliu and the cow stool were immediately stunned, and then their brows were deeply entangled.
I thought that the rules were changed even so that Xu Bansheng could smoothly enter the list of five, but no matter which round of the lottery, it seems that the inner door did not really intervene, could it be that everyone guessed wrong, the inner door actually did not want Xu Bansheng to go down the mountain?
However, if a genius like Xu Bansheng didn't go through some things, how could he grow up quickly? Could it be that the inner door was timid, thinking that Xu Bansheng only had the dual heaven of qi refining after all, and was worried about his safety, and worried that his genius would be exposed while walking, so he wanted to hide him for a while?
It's not impossible, otherwise, how could the inner door know that Xu Bansheng would definitely be able to pass these two rounds of competition?
Unusual!
The two also looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
And at this moment, in the martial arts arena, the first round of the duel between the fifth disciple has also produced results. There was a slight disparity in the strength of the two sides, and the No. 5 disciple won this battle without blood.
Immediately drew lots again, this draw does not have much to repeat, compared to the first round of lottery, the fifth disciple this time is to draw a strong opponent for himself, although it is not an absolutely invincible opponent such as the hatred soul and Pan Dongliu, but the victory or defeat is only in a thought, it depends on who plays better on the spot.
The two fought fiercely, and in the end, the No. 5 disciple fell short.
Then the sixth disciple drew lots, and he was not very lucky, and he actually drew a disciple who was tied for fifth in the strength list with the same strength as the cow stool and the sword maniac, and he was defeated without the slightest suspense.
Disciple No. 7 has been defeated by Chen Yuanliang and entered the loser's group, and the next disciple to draw lots is Disciple No. 8.
In a hard battle, the eighth disciple finally won a miserable victory, and he drew his second opponent with a happy face, but Yu Jian just flipped over, and saw the words eighteen written on it, this disciple's face suddenly changed, this luck, it is really the ancestor who has no virtue, seeing the enemy walking out expressionlessly, this disciple is already disheartened, he knows that his previous victory is like flowing water, useless.
The result was naturally not anyone's expectation, and the Hatred Soul's Great Fireball Technique plus the Burst Technique directly sent the No. 8 disciple out of the Cave Heaven Battlefield. And the enemy spirit, as if he had never moved at all.
At this point, it was the turn of the disciples of the ninth sign to continue fighting, and among the twenty-four disciples, only Xu Bansheng entered the top eight. And those who have definitely entered the loser's group have also produced eleven people.
At the same time, there are five disciples who won one game because they were drawn, namely the ox stool of the eleventh lot, the disciple of the sixteenth lot, the hater soul of the eighteenth lot, the nineteenth lot, and the pan Dongliu of the twenty-third lot.
Disciple No. 9 can also be regarded as Xu Bansheng's old acquaintance, and that is Fan Zheng, who broke through from the same group as him.
Fan Zheng's luck was not bad, the opponent in the first round drew the number 10 next to him, although the fierce battle lasted for a long time, but he finally won this victory without danger. But in the second draw, he once again drew the disciple of the nineteenth lot, who had already won one game.
The disciple of the nineteenth sign and the ox stool knife maniac are tied for fifth on the strength list, which is already an insurmountable mountain for Fan Zheng, even if he tries his best, he will not escape the fate of defeat, and can only watch the disciple of the nineteenth sign enter the winning group.
Generally speaking, at this moment of selection, there are already fourteen people in the loser's group, and there are only two in the winner's group, and the disciple of the nineteenth sign will definitely go to say hello to Xu Bansheng, the junior disciple who first entered the winner's group, that is, entered the quarterfinals. But for some reason, this disciple seems to look down on Xu Bansheng very much, and he doesn't have the meaning of stepping forward at all.
Xu Bansheng nodded at him, but the man turned a blind eye and did not respond, Pan Dongliu and the cow stool looked at it, but he couldn't say anything.
Disciple No. 19 has no conflict with Xu Bansheng, and he is not a person from the same path as the enemy, probably because of that inexplicable hatred of geniuses. I have to say that this kind of short-sightedness, this kind of narrow-mindedness, even if his qualifications among the outer disciples of the Taiyi Sect are not bad, but his future achievements are only limited.
The road of cultivating immortals has always been the genius of two types of people, one is open-minded and chic, and the other is to drill the horns of the bull in everything. Judging from the current performance, Pan Dongliu and Niu Stool both belong to the former category, while the enemy soul belongs to the latter category, although paranoia will also become an obstacle on the road to cultivating immortals, but it will also produce bonuses in some aspects.
The disciple of the No. 10 lottery entered the loser's group early because he lost to the No. 9 lot, and next, the bull bench of the No. 11 lottery appeared.
Xu Bansheng smiled and said to the cow stool: "Wait for you to come." β
The cow stool was also full of pride, and laughed: "It must be!"
Pan Dongliu didn't say anything, just secretly clenched his fists, in his opinion, unless Niu Stool was unlucky enough to draw an opponent like the Evil Spirit, it shouldn't be a problem to win this one.
And the result can only be said to be expected, the cow stool was drawn by the sixteenth disciple who had already won the next game in front, the cow stool didn't matter, but the sixteenth disciple was slightly depressed.
The two stood outside the martial arts arena, and the sixteenth disciple hesitated for a moment, and said, "Senior Brother Niu, you and I met in a narrow way, but we can't do it, and I hope that my subordinates will be merciful." β
Niu Stool smiled and said: "I don't dare to show mercy to this, after all, if you lose, you will enter the loser's group, and I don't know what the situation will be in the next round." Just let go of your hands and feet, the two of us will have a good fight, and we don't have to worry about who wins or who loses. β
This sentence also aroused the pride of the sixteenth disciple, he was encouraged by the cow stool, nodded heavily, and said, "It is a happy thing to be able to fight with Senior Brother Niu. No matter who wins or loses today, we have to have a good drink after the auditions. β
Niu Stool laughed and said, "Okay, that's it." β
The two entered the martial arts arena one after another, and then pressed their hands on the pillar of light and entered the Dongtian battlefield.
The result was that the cow stool won, although it was not easy, but the sixteenth disciple also felt hearty. In any case, fighting against the cow bench, even if you lose, it will not make people feel aggrieved.
Niu Stool comforted the sixteenth disciple a few words, walked towards Xu Bansheng with a smile, and said proudly: "Fortunately, I don't disgrace my life, haha." β
Disciple No. 12 has also been defeated, and disciple No. 13 doesn't seem to have good luck, and it turned out to be an enemy soul in his draw.
It was another contest with a huge disparity between the enemy and me, and the enemy still won easily and entered the winner's group, while the thirteenth disciple could only enter the loser's group aggrievedly.
No. 14 won one and lost one, eliminated disciple No. 24, but lost to disciple No. 20 and also entered the loser's group.
The fifteen-sixteen two disciples have been eliminated, while the eighteen-nineteen have entered the winner's group, and the twenty-twentieth disciple won this game and directly drew lots.
