Chapter 74: The First Battle
An hour passed quickly, and order was restored on the Falling Star Flat, and the eight contestants who were about to start the competition walked into the center of the square, and Cui Sixiu glanced at them, and his eyes fell on the youngest of them.
Xie Ling, the owner of the inferior immortal root from the Xie family, who was once considered useless by himself, stood in the ranks of the top disciples of this academy today with an astonishing appearance, which was quite unexpected.
The disciples who were fighting outside the arena also let out bursts of exclamations.
"Look, that's Xie Ling of the mosaic room!"
"By the way, I heard that he only has the realm of intermediate apprentice, I didn't believe it at first, how could a disciple of the intermediate apprentice level break into the courtyard on behalf of the inlay room, now it seems that the rumors are true, I don't know if he is as powerful as rumored!"
"It shouldn't be too weak, otherwise you would be so easy to deal with when Shu Zichun, who represented the pavilion last year?"
The voices of discussion came and went, and the originally quiet Luoxingping became noisy as Xie Ling stepped into the square.
"Senior Brother Xie's reputation is not smallβ" Jingyi smiled.
"Maybe there will be a different excitement today!" Lian Chengbi remembered the howling sound of that day, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
On the sidelines, the most ugly face was Qiu Kuohai, and the two extremely excellent disciples just turned into other rooms, looking at Xiao Mo with a trace of terrifying fierceness in their eyes. "If he doesn't enter Dabi this time, it seems that it is time to take back some of his power. β
At this time, the eight people in the field began to draw lots in turn, single and double duels, large vs. small, that is, No. 1 vs. eight, No. 2 vs. seven, and so on.
Xie Ling drew a No. 5, then his opponent will be Tong Kun, who won the No. 4 lot!
Tong Kun saw that his opponent was Xie Ling, and a smile appeared on his face, in his opinion, no matter how powerful Xie Ling was, he was only at the realm of intermediate apprentices, maybe a little stronger than ordinary senior apprentices, but he was definitely the weakest among the fifteen people who entered the academy examination today.
He has a simple appearance and a deep scheming, otherwise he would not have thrown off his armor and surrendered when he faced Yang Ying.
Xie Ling didn't know much about him, seeing that he was smiling but not smiling, he knew that he must have thought that he had picked up a big bargain, and he would return it with a smile, the lighter the enemy, the better, if he was strict with himself, it would make people worry.
After the eight people are drawn and divided into groups, the second round of knockout rounds will begin!
Xie Ling and Tong Kun's venue was leaning against the cliff, and the two first gestured to each other, and then each retreated backwards.
The second round is the knockout round, so no one will slack off, all of them are mentioning the spirit of twelve points, which makes the onlookers outside the field hold their breath, around the field, four groups of competitions, each group has an irresistible charm, and it really makes people feel that they lose the other.
"Senior brother, please!" Tong Kun arched his hand.
Xie Ling knew that the other party would not make the first move because he cared about face, so he smiled and said, "Then the junior brother will be offended!" After speaking, he sacrificed the black water heavy sword, and immediately a black water surrounded him, like a black dragon.
Tong Kun's understanding of Xie Ling was even more limited, seeing that the magic weapon he sacrificed was very strange, and it was rare to use a sword weapon to drive the water to practice the exercises, so he was a little more vigilant at the moment.
Xie Ling saw a hint of hesitation in the other party's eyes, and stroked it out with one hand, and the black water pulled out and went straight to the opposite side.
Tong Kun's information is very simple, the basic exercises are cultivated in the 'Thick Earth Technique', and the intensive cultivation method is the 'Hercules Technique', which belongs to a typical strength-type opponent.
For this kind of opponent, the best way is to make it impossible to get close and powerful, so Xie Ling's initial plan is to put the battle outside of his own five zhang and not give Tong Kun any chance to get close to him.
Tong Kun saw that the other party had killed him directly, sneered, sacrificed the 'crescent shovel', and smashed it from top to bottom. In his mind, with his high-level apprentice-level Qi cultivation stage thirteenth-level perfect cultivation, this shovel would be able to smash it apart.
With a bang, the crescent shovel smashed on the black water and splashed the water, but for the black water, which is wide and five feet long, this movement is not painful at all, and the water continues to flow forward.
The onlookers around were all experts, seeing that Tong Kun had just smashed it tentatively, but at least he had used three successful forces, and the 'Crescent Moon Shovel' itself was a heavy attack weapon of Xiao Zhou Tian that had been sacrificed to the six prohibitions, and it didn't take up half of the face, which was too incredible!
Tong Kun heard the boo, his face turned red, and at that moment the spiritual power urged the 'crescent shovel' in the air, this time he moved ten percent of his strength, and the 'crescent shovel' smashed down with a strong wind.
Xie Ling sneered, and his hands flicked towards his coat, and the black water split into two streams, letting go of the attack of the 'Crescent Shovel'.
There was a loud bang, the ground shook, and the people around pushed the turbulent wind backwards sharply, and after settling down, they saw a huge pit on the ground in front of them, and the one-foot-long 'crescent shovel' was still exposed and trembling outside with only its tail exposed.
Xie Ling saw that as soon as his hands were closed, the rolling black water gathered again, and in the blink of an eye, the 'crescent shovel' below was swallowed inside and disappeared!
Tong Kun hurriedly pinched the trick and urged the 'Crescent Shovel' to take it back. But no matter how hard he tried, the Crescent Shovel was stuck and couldn't break free.
"Good!"
There were cheers all around, and this move was just right for Xie Ling, and he trapped the opponent's magic weapon at once.
"Do you see, this is the fighting method, how can it be like you and Long Xiang, two brute bulls, they only know how to use force!" Yun Yazi glanced at Lin Fan and said.
Lin Fan blinked, and for the first time did not refute Yun Yazi's words.
"Hey, I heard they're both in the same room!"
"Well, they're all in the smelting room, but one is in the smelting room and one is in the gravel yard. But now it seems that the gravel yard is a little bit more powerful. β
Tong Kun tried several times but couldn't take back the 'Crescent Shovel', and when he heard the surrounding discussions, his square face became extremely ugly.
"It's not good, Senior Brother Tong is going crazy!" said a disciple in the Fire Refining Room.
"I remember the last time Senior Brother went crazy, even Senior Brother Xiao Mo couldn't stop him!"
"Look, it's Hercules!"
"Why is it so small?"
"You know what, the further you go, the smaller the phantom of the Hercules statue becomes, it's stupid!"
Long Xiang's saliva was about to flow out, his 'Hercules Technique' had just entered the fifth layer, and the Hercules Phantom behind Tong Kun could be seen that he had at least cultivated to the seventh layer realm!
Although Tong Kun was in the fire refining room and had cultivated the 'Fire Alchemy' to the Great Perfection, the strongest was the 'Hercules Technique' that had not yet been consummated.
'Fire Alchemy' only has six layers of mental methods, which are mainly used to cultivate how to control fire, a real auxiliary exercise. And the 'Hercules Technique' has thirteen layers, which belongs to the method of dual cultivation that can be used in the body, even if it cannot achieve immortality because of this, it is much more profound and profound than other intensive cultivation methods.
Xie Ling saw Tong Kun use the 'Hercules Technique', and the smile on his face became even stronger.
