The disciples suddenly began to get nervous, some of their palms were sweaty, some looked nervous, and some of their eyes were a little straight.

Taking a deep breath, the first disciple slowly stepped forward, pulled out the first stick, opened it, and saw that there was a number thirty-seven on it.

At this point, his draw has ended, and now is the time for him to wait, all he needs is to wait for the next disciple who draws the number thirty-seven, which is the opponent of his selection competition.

Zhang Xiaomai's lottery arrangement is relatively high, and probably the tenth is himself.

On the stage, Zhang Xiaomai was not as nervous as the previous brothers, but he just touched it in the sign bar casually, and found a sign out, just got off the stage, Shangguan Yanran immediately came up, and asked with a smile, "How many numbers have been drawn?"

Zhang Xiaomai opened it and said, "No. 22." ”

By the way, none of the previous disciples were drawn on the twenty-second, so Zhang Xiaomai's opponent has not appeared yet, which means that he has to wait for a while.

At this time, what Zhang Xiaomai didn't know was that Venerable Huangshi suddenly moved his lips slightly in his seat, and said something to one of his disciples in the distance with his secret supernatural power.

When the disciple heard this, he immediately left his seat...... More and more disciples began to draw lots on the stage, and after thirty disciples, finally some disciples drew the same number as before, which was drawn together, and the first pair were two disciples who had drawn the eighteenth.

When the two disciples saw this result, they were stunned for a moment, and they glanced at each other, it turned out that they were usually very good friends.

As two good friends, but to decide a winner to participate in the following competition, this is probably a little unwilling for both of them, and this meeting is suddenly a little embarrassing.

But friends are friends, and games are competitions, even if they are usually friends, they will not show mercy when they are in such an important competition, after all, it is a matter of whether they can participate in the small competition, which in the eyes of the two disciples, is a matter of honor.

The draw continued.

The results were naturally varied, with some people feeling elated when they encountered a weaker opponent, while those who thought they were having a stronger opponent looked cautious and nervous.

Of course, there are also disciples who usually have a little festival on both sides of the sect drawn together, and the result is naturally that the two sides are on a pair, and immediately the sparks are shining, and the fighting spirit is continuous.

Zhang Xiaomai waited for more than a dozen rounds, but still did not meet his opponent.

But at this moment, suddenly on the lottery table, everyone's eyes looked in one direction together, and the crowd was emotional, and a sound of discussion sounded.

"Look, it's actually Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan who came, and he also came to draw lots. ”

From a distance, I saw a disciple with a baby face, dressed in a strong suit, and with very vigorous movements, walking towards the stage with strong and confident steps.

"What, Sun Zhanyuan didn't enter the top 100, and he still had to draw lots, how could this be possible!" a disciple seemed to not believe his eyes.

This disciple's name is Sun Zhanyuan, originally a martial arts master in the world, and was later discovered by Venerable Bishui, cultivated, and his strength improved very quickly, he is a very powerful young disciple under Venerable Bishui, in the eyes of everyone, a very bright star of hope, and even some disciples think that with Sun Zhanyuan's strength, he can at least be ranked in the top fifty, but I don't know why, in this nomination, he was defeated in the top 100" I heard that Sun Zhanyuan should have been the top 100 in the internal designation, but I don't know why, Venerable Huangshi and Venerable Zijin did not agree with him to be directly selected, just the insistence of Venerable Bishui was not enough for him to be directly selected, so in the final result, he actually had to participate in the lottery. ”

Another disciple immediately said disdainfully, "Isn't this nonsense, Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan is actually not qualified to enter the top hundred, this kind of ghost thing is actually believed, what is the matter between Huangshi Venerable and Zijin Venerable, is there something wrong with their vision!"

"Yes, Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan, he became an immortal with martial arts, he was originally a very promising new star in our lower court, but he still had to participate in the selection competition, isn't it too outrageous!" another disciple chimed in.

"I don't know who Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan will draw?" a disciple said with some schadenfreude, "But no matter who is drawn, I'm afraid it's anyone's bad luck, with his strength, among the two hundred disciples who participated in the lottery, they can all go sideways, and that's not who will kill whom." ”

"Yes, I don't know who the unlucky guy who smoked with him is, so let's pray for him and hope he doesn't lose too badly. A disciple shook his head regretfully.

Zhang Xiaomai, who was on the side, heard all this, and his heart was immediately moved.

"Unexpectedly, a disciple like Sun Zhanyuan was not directly selected, but wanted to participate in the selection, this is really a strange thing every year, there are a lot of them today!" Shangguan Yanran on the side couldn't help but sigh.

Before, when she was doing miscellaneous labor, Shangguan Yanran had heard of Sun Zhanyuan's name, and heard about his martial arts immortal technique, which was extremely powerful and very pioneering.

I hope that Fujun will not draw such a strong opponent, as long as it is not this person, if it is replaced by any other person present, I believe that Fujun should be able to win, Shangguan Yanran couldn't help but say in her heart.

At this time, he saw Sun Zhanyuan walking to the lottery table with a dissatisfied face, and pulled out a lot from it casually without care.

Obviously, Sun Zhanyuan was extremely dissatisfied with himself and participating in the lottery ceremony, after all, his partner, who was weaker than him with him, had also been directly selected before, and he wanted to participate in the lottery instead, which was naturally very uncomfortable in his heart.

"Twenty-two!" The disciple in charge of reading the sign on the stage suddenly said, "The one who was drawn together with Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan is this year's rookie Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai!"

As soon as the words came out, Shangguan Yanran's eyes suddenly widened.

How could it be so coincidental that Xiao Mai actually drew together with Sun Zhanyuan, the strongest of these two hundred people!

There was a sudden uproar on the field.

"Who is Zhang Xiaomai, this unlucky bastard, he actually got together with Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan, do you still need to compare now, Zhang Xiaomai is doomed!"

"Yes, yes, this disciple is finished, it's easy to enter the candidate, and I lost the opportunity like this!"

"Not necessarily, I heard that this Zhang Xiaomai took the pseudonym Li Dami some time ago, and occupied the top 100 places on the contribution list of the Yin-Yang Pavilion!

"What, Zhang Xiaomai is that Li Dami!"

"The contribution list of the Yin-Yang Pavilion is nothing, many masters in the upper and lower courtyards have no habit of finishing tasks due to their abundance of money, Senior Brother Sun Zhanyuan is like this, without these masters, this Zhang Xiaomai Tiger is not at home, and it is not surprising that the monkey is the overlord, so it is not surprising to get a good ranking. ”

"It's miserable, it's miserable, it seems that this Zhang Xiaomai was originally a good newcomer, but he was separated from Senior Brother Sun, and it seems that he is destined to miss the two factions to participate in this small competition!"

Venerable Bishui on the seat on the stage saw this scene, and immediately frowned.

Sun Zhanyuan and Zhang Xiaomai were originally the top 100 disciples she had designated, but they didn't expect to be vetoed by Venerable Huangshi and Venerable Zijin successively, but in the end, they were so coincidentally separated.

Venerable Bishui couldn't help but look at the Huangshi Venerable and the Zijin Venerable on the side, and a hint of conspiracy rose in his heart.

It's just that at this moment, the two Venerables are sitting upright, with solemn expressions, completely the taste of heaven and earth's selflessness and self-indulgence, and there is no abnormality on their faces.

There is no evidence, Venerable Bishui scolded in his good heart.

If the two of them have nothing to do with this matter, Venerable Bishui doesn't believe anything, where is there such a coincidence, his two very strong disciples were actually vetoed by the two of them, and then they had to eliminate one, this is not a conspiracy, what is it!

Venerable Bishui was angry at the moment.

Oh, I didn't expect that I, Zhang Xiaomai, would draw such a strong opponent, interesting, really interesting...... Hearing that everyone around him was talking about the strength of his opponent, the sympathetic gaze towards his head, and the fact that everyone was unanimously not optimistic about his situation, Zhang Xiaomai felt a sense of excitement in his heart.

If you usually go to participate in this competition, even if you win, it will not be tasteful, and now with such a powerful opponent, you can just test some of your recent shortcomings in cultivation, Zhang Xiaomai's heart is very excited.

After Sun Zhanyuan confirmed that his opponent was Zhang Xiaomai, he also cast a questioning look at Zhang Xiaomai, but then found that Zhang Xiaomai's face was actually a complete newcomer this year, and after he had never seen it before, he immediately snorted in his nose, looking very contemptuous.

Sun Zhanyuan was originally very dissatisfied with the disciple who listed himself as an alternate to participate in the selection competition this time, but now he saw that his opponent was a pure newcomer, and he had already made a plan to knock the opponent out directly, in the face of such a newcomer, even if he couldn't win quickly within ten moves, it was actually a failure.

At this moment, Sun Zhanyuan has already determined his goal for the game.

At this time, Zhang Xiaomai's eyes had already converged, and the eyes of the two collided in the air, and they immediately retracted.

For Sun Zhanyuan's side, he disdains a rookie opponent like Zhang Xiaomai, and for Zhang Xiaomai's side, he has a preliminary understanding of Sun Zhanyuan's strength.

The strength, physical fitness and flexibility in the middle of the knot are excellent, the strength is also outstanding, all aspects are relatively balanced, it seems that there are no obvious weaknesses, and it is not an easy opponent to deal with, Zhang Xiaomai secretly made an evaluation of the opponent in his heart.

This opponent is definitely not ordinary.
