Chapter Ninety-Nine: Foundation Building Conference (3)
Looking at such a domineering banner, and hearing the constant drum noise in his ears, Tianhuo's handsome face was about to turn the color of pig liver, and he desperately waved to the senior brothers, asking them to quickly remove such a shameful banner.
Su Xing in the distance was leading his juniors and disciples to shout the slogan on the banner, and when he saw Tianhuo waving desperately on the player's seat, he thought that Tianhuo was very happy and excited, and he also became more excited, and turned around to command Lu Qiming and Qingniu, who were holding the banner, to hold the banner higher and shout louder!
The other brothers were also excited, this group of activists scurried around in the stands, the uniform yellow domineering robes were very eye-catching in the stands, they continued to promote the Xuanji faction to the people around them, and also pointed out to them the legendary Tianhuo in the players' seats.
Tianhuo couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground at this time, and the other four children around him couldn't help it, and they leaned back and laughed, and even Gu Qingliu, who was usually not smiling, couldn't help laughing.
Suddenly, a yin and yang voice came from behind: "Hehe, this group of clowns who can only grandstand don't know which sect they belong to? Didn't the division commanders follow? It's ridiculous that everyone is thrown to the foundation building conference." ”
Then another voice said: "Brother Yan, this clown sect seems to be called the Xuanji faction, I haven't heard of it before, it may be a sect that has newly joined the Imperial Family Cultivation Alliance, so there are no rules."
Their robes have the Big Dipper on their chests, and the vertical version of the word Xuanji on the back, and the robes are still bright yellow, which is too eye-catching and funny. ”
When Tianhuo heard this, he immediately forgot about his embarrassment, turned his head and glared at the person who spoke, only to see two eighteen or nineteen-year-old teenagers not far behind him, both of them were dressed in brocade clothes, and they didn't look like they were of the same sect, and one of the teenagers looked a little familiar, and Tianhuo couldn't remember where he had seen them for a while.
The two teenagers looked at Tianhuo and turned their heads, and also glared back at Tianhuo, and the second young man who spoke said, "What are you looking at? Didn't you see Young Master Yan Bingshi of the Heavenly Dao Sect and Young Master Ryazan of the Lingyun Sect here? A small disciple of the Xuan-level Sect is so rampant, and he can't come to kneel down and salute!"
As soon as Tianhuo heard these two names, he finally suddenly realized, no wonder this Yan Bingshi looked a little familiar, it was the younger brother of Yan Bingyu, a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect who had come to the door to make trouble before, and should be the leading figure among the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect this time.
Tianhuo stood up, and the other four small members of the Northern Yunnan Alliance also stood up, Yan Bingshi and Ryazan did not get up, but more than a dozen people immediately stood up beside them, and they should be disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Lingyun Sect.
Tianhuo Gong gathered his eyes and seriously looked at the disciples of the two factions, Yan Bingshi turned out to be the realm of the eleventh layer of Qi training, and Ryazan actually had the cultivation of the tenth layer of Qi training, breaking through the extreme, no wonder he spoke so arrogantly.
The rest of the disciples of the two factions who got up were all at the ninth level of Qi cultivation, but there were three disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect who did not get up, and one of them was also at the tenth level of Qi training, which made Tianhuo's eyes light up.
Ryazan of the Lingyun faction saw that Tianhuo did not speak, thinking that Tianhuo was suppressed by the names of the two of them and many fellow players, and said even more proudly: "What's the matter, boy? Now that you know you're scared, then hurry up and kowtow to apologize, and then take off your-yellow clothes, and wipe the boots clean for our two disciples, maybe we are in a good mood and will let you go." ”
Tianhuo smiled: "Which green onion are you, the reincarnation of the toad?
Ryazan obviously didn't quarrel with worldly people, he was stunned by Tianhuo's words, and after thinking for a while, he realized that Tianhuo was scolding him, and he was immediately angry and about to go crazy, only to hear Tianhuo continue: "Your name is Yan Bingshi? Your brother's name is Yan Bingyu, and the stone is obviously not as valuable as jade, it seems that most of your family doesn't like you, so they sent you to be a Taoist priest, right?"
Yan Bingshi sneered: "Boy, your mouth is quite poisonous! A disciple from a small Xuan-level sect dares to offend our Heavenly Dao Sect and the Lingyun Sect at the same time, it is simply unbelievable! What's wrong with insulting you? It's because I can afford you to insult you, you should be grateful!"
Tianhuo smiled and said: "Haven't you two been weaned yet? Wherever you go, your sect is so powerful! Tell you, you are really powerful, if you miss today, the master will definitely let you know that those who drink milk will never be able to eat meat by themselves!"
Ryazan was so angry that he jumped like thunder, but Yan Bingshi was not too excited, and continued to say coldly: "Boy, don't be hard-mouthed, don't wait for the game to end, the game will make you cry in a while." Brother Ryazan, don't be like this mad dog that can only bark. ”
Ryazan said with an angry face: "Boy, you remember for me, I am Ryazan of the Lingyun Sect of the prefecture-level sect, remember my name, and let you kneel and beg for your life at my feet in a while!"
Tianhuo laughed: "Haha, I remember the two of you, I am the Tianhuo written on the banner, and I will send you home to drink milk in a while!"
Sikong Nana suddenly dragged Tianhuo and pointed behind him, Tianhuo saw two Taoist priests dressed in Da Luo faction coming over from the stand, it seemed that they were here to maintain order, and he immediately turned around and sat down again.
The disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Lingyun Sect also saw the staff of the Great Luo Sect coming over, and in order to avoid any extraneous complications, they had to sit down as well.
Two Taoist priests from the Da Luo faction walked to the east side of the contestants' seat, one of the Taoist priests stayed behind to supervise the contestants' seats to avoid some disputes in advance, and the other Taoist priest walked directly to the north side of the audience seat and asked the Xuanji sect disciples to put away the banners.
The Taoist priest walked to the center of the competition platform, raised his hands, and pressed down a few times, and the venue quickly quieted down, only to hear the Taoist priest say: "Fellow cultivators, here is the host of this conference - Weichen, under the order of the Yundian Provincial Daolu Division, the order of the Master Qingquan, once again reminded the contestants and the audience,
First, the foundation building conference is a selection ceremony within the Imperial Family Cultivation Alliance, and the death of players is not allowed in the competition, so please take a restrained attitude, and any player who deliberately hurts the opponent will be severely punished.
Second, watch the game in a civilized manner, do not have excessive behavior or excessive assistance, and do not interfere with the players in the game to avoid unnecessary conflicts. ”
These words were obviously directed at the Xuanji faction, and the disciples of the Xuanji faction were a little embarrassed, but Xuanjizi still pointed out the beautiful scenery of Dianchi Lake with the four masters with an unchanged face, and the calm attitude made the four masters admire.
After the moderator's rectification, the order of the venue was restored a lot. Soon after, after all the contestants had completed the verification, the head of Qingping handed a note to Weichen, who took the note with both hands and looked quite respectful.
Weichen carefully looked at the note in his hand, then walked back onto the competition platform, and said loudly to the audience: "Okay, everyone, be quiet, the conference will start soon!"
After shouting three times in a row, the stands completely regained silence, and the Weichen Daoist said loudly: "Spectators, players, the long-awaited and much-anticipated foundation building conference of the Imperial Family Cultivation Alliance of Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces is about to begin! On behalf of the Yundian Provincial Daolu Division, I welcome all fellow cultivators to participate in this foundation building conference tirelessly!"
Thunderous applause and whistles erupted in the audience and players' seats.
The Weichen Daoist pressed his palm twice, the applause stopped, and he continued: "This foundation building conference is hosted by the Yundian Provincial Daolu Division and co-organized by the Heavenly Dao Sect.
First of all, please allow me to introduce the chief referee of this conference, the Yundian Provincial Daolu Division, the commander of the envoy Qingquan, the executive referee Qingping, and the special guest of Tiandaozong, the helmsman Cui Zhe and Cui Helm, the three of them will form the referee group of this conference to ensure the fair holding of this conference. ”
There was another round of applause from the audience, among the three of them, Master Qingquan and Cui Zhe were masters of the Transformation Period, and Master Qingping was also a cultivator at the peak of the Yuan Infant Period. Among them, Qingquan and Qingping came from the Daolu Division, which ensured the fairness of the conference to a certain extent, and joined Cui Zhe in order to give the only heaven-level sect a face.
Weichen continued: "A total of 127 sects from Yunnan and Guizhou provinces participated in this conference, including one heaven-level sect, seven prefecture-level sects, twenty-two Xuan-level sects, and ninety-seven yellow-level sects.
There should be 177 contestants, 175 actual contestants, two abstentions, all contestants are in line with the regulations of the conference, please ask the chief referee to instruct, whether to start the game at this time. ”
The Venerable Master Qingquan and Cui Zhe sat at a table next to the competition platform, while the Venerable Master Qingping stood beside the table with his hands solemn.
Master Qingquan stood up and said, "I announce that the foundation building conference of the Imperial Family Cultivation Alliance of Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces will begin now!"
The applause rang out again, and Weichen waited until the applause fell before continuing: "The competition system of this foundation building conference adopts a two-stage elimination system, which is divided into two parts: the qualifying round and the qualifying competition.
The first is the qualifying round, which adopts an open selection mode, that is, there is no limit to the number of promotion places, as long as the players who meet the promotion criteria can participate in the second stage of the qualifying competition. ”
The sound of "hum~" came, and the audience and the players' seats immediately became agitated, and everyone began to discuss the way to qualify.
This is the first time since the first foundation building conference was held that this selection mode has been adopted in the qualifying competition, instead of limiting the number of places to enter the finals, so many small sects are naturally very excited when they see the hope of their disciples entering the qualifying competition.
The big sects are even happier, the previous battle mode will always make some sect disciples meet the same sect in the preliminary stage, and there will definitely be disciples eliminated in the middle, the selection mode of this conference means that there will be more disciples of the big sects shortlisted for the final stage, why not?
And some of the players in the player seat who were just going to go through the motions and leave with a Tsukidan also had a glimmer of hope in their hearts at this moment.
Zhong Xingmin leaned over to Tianhuo and whispered, "Senior Brother Tianhuo, if the qualifying tournament is not a battle, but an assessment of skills, I may still have a chance." ”
Tianhu comforted: "Don't be impatient, it should be what you think, come on, how can you enter the qualifying competition, otherwise we can't help you if we want to." ”
Gu Qingliu also whispered: "Such an arrangement, it seems that the qualifying tournament has given the disciples of the small sect some opportunities, but in fact, it is even more unfair, and it is the Heavenly Dao Sect that benefits the most from such a setup!"
Their disciples avoided being eliminated by their own sect's powerful peers in the qualifying round, and the more disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect entered the competition, the greater the advantage in numbers and scale, so that other sects would have nothing to play. ”
Ding Feng and Sikong Nana frowned, at first they were as happy as Zhong Xingmin, but after listening to Gu Qingliu's analysis, they realized that this was an irrefutable conspiracy.
However, most of the audience and players are short-sighted, and many players and spectators are praising the competition system as very reasonable and applauding.
Tianhuo laughed twice, and said confidently: "More people don't necessarily make it stronger, the key is to be united, anyway, I don't like the Heavenly Dao Sect, even if I can't defeat them, I can't let them get the Three Talents Zhuji Dan happily! I think there are many people who think the same as us, and I don't know who will kill the deer when the time comes." ”
The rest of the four elementary schools also looked at the Heavenly Dao Sect unpleasantly, anyway, no matter whether they won or lost, they would get a Zhuji Dan in the end, why not follow the Tianhuo crazy, at least their hearts would be a lot happier! Unconsciously, the tension of the four people eased a lot.
Weichen continued: "Next, I will explain to you the rules of the qualifying tournament, please take a look!"
With a wave of his hand, two more Taoist priests immediately came up to the stage from the west side of the competition platform, grabbed the two corners of the northwest and southwest of the curtain, and slowly retreated backwards.
Then there were bursts of exclamations from the stands and the players' bench!8)
