Chapter 160: The Eve of the Final
Chapter 160 – The Eve of the Finals
After this, Xu Chuniang realized why Senior Sister Lan Wei always held her frame and didn’t care about people.
If she had acted more approachable, with the adoration and admiration these senior siblings had for her, it would have seriously hindered her cultivation life.
It was a good thing that Xu Chuniang’s goal was to enter the top ten of the Grand Competition in this final round, obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill and thus building her foundation.
Although her reputation had caused her some trouble, as long as she succeeded in building her foundation she would be able to enter the inner sect and thus stay away from these troubles.
After all, no matter how fanatical these senior siblings were, they wouldn’t be able to chase them to the inner sect.
Taking a step back, if they were inspired by her and were able to cultivate hard to enter the inner sect by their own strength, it would not be a bad thing.
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, putting these things aside for the time being and concentrating on recovering her spiritual energy.
There were a total of four matches in the finals, two each tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and the intensity and frequency were both very high.
Every win would increase by one point, losing would not add or subtract points, and the person with the most points from the four fights would be promoted to the top ten of the Grand Competition.
If there was a situation where the scores were the same, then the other two would add a match to determine the winner, which was not rare.
In the fight, try to make sure that you don’t get too seriously injured, otherwise even if you win the fight, it will be unfavorable for the next few fights.
But in the finals, the crowd tried to win at all costs, with all sorts of tactics coming out.
Even powerful disciples such as Lan Wei and Xia Changge couldn’t do the absolute crushing of their strength and couldn’t guarantee that they could easily win every battle.
In the last outer door competition, blue Wei is in the duel with Tang Li suffered some injuries have not been well, and then a series of fight injuries on top of injuries, and finally lost to another disciple in the group with a one-point difference, and the top ten lost.
Xu Chuniang first participated in the outer door competition, naturally do not dare to have the slightest carelessness, tomorrow’s fight she will go all out.
She had the confidence of not losing to any of her contemporaries, and she would never let go of the chance to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Xu Chuniang took a deep breath and calmed down, meditating quietly and waiting for the arrival of dawn.
At three minutes past the hour, the practice field.
Elder Lu, the Jindan cultivator presiding over this Outer Sect Competition, swept his gaze faintly over the entire field of disciples and spoke in a solemn voice.
“All of you who have made it this far are bound to be the most powerful people in the Outer Sect. It has been thousands of years since the Easy Sect opened its doors in the Qian Luo Realm. The Grand Competition was established since the date of the opening of the Sect, and since then it has been continued to this day, and the rules have not changed so far, so I think that every disciple in the audience is clear about it.”
Elder Lu paused briefly and continued, “You may all understand the rules of the Grand Competition, but I still need to reiterate them here. The top ten of the Grand Competition will be issued a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, an extremely high-grade spiritual weapon, and will also be granted the qualification to enter the Little Zephyr Realm.
Of course, you can also choose not to enter the Little Zephyr Realm, the Little Zephyr Realm has both opportunities and risks, so you guys can discern for yourselves.
As for the disciples who failed to enter the top ten, the sect will distribute a top grade spiritual weapon and a bottle of top grade Yuan Qi Dan as encouragement, hoping that you will be able to go even further in the next Outer Sect Competition.
Alright, that’s all for the rules, all of you will be grouped by drawing lots, and then you will fight two by two starting from the first group.”
Fifty disciples stepped forward in turn and began to draw lots, whichever group was drawn would be whichever group was drawn, and no changes would be allowed.
Many people secretly prayed in their hearts, hoping that they wouldn’t be unlucky enough to be grouped with Lan Wei, Xia Changge, Gan Yiqiu and the others.
If they were assigned to other groups, they still had some chances.
However, if they were in the same group as these long-famous experts, they were basically considered to be hopelessly out of luck with the top ten of this Grand Competition.
“It mustn’t be groups three and six, it mustn’t be groups three and six.”
A female cultivator pinched the jade card in her hand and prayed twice before nervously flipping it open.
After seeing that she was assigned to group four, she let out a long sigh of relief; so far, she hadn’t heard of any very powerful people in group four.
“I’d like to go to groups three and six, and compete with Lan Wei and Xia Changge on the same stage to fight it out.” A male cultivator with a handsome appearance and some elegant charm, however, smiled and casually took a jade card on the table, and it was precisely Gan Yiqiu, who was on par with Lan Wei and Xia Changge.
The surrounding people couldn’t help but look at him expectantly when they heard this, if Gan Yiqiu really went to the third and sixth groups, then there would be even more opportunities left for the crowd.
Gan Yiqiu flipped over his jade card and glanced at it, somewhat regretting, “Ah, it’s group four, no fun.”
He was a bit bored and pinned the jade card on his body, four groups is four groups, when he arrived at the Little Ze Realm, he was still afraid that he wouldn’t have a chance to fight with those two.
Oh, when the time comes to snatch the Foundation Establishment Dan from their hands, that would be fun.
I just hope that the two of them will not dare to enter the Little Ze Realm because they are afraid of losing the Foundation Establishment Dan.
The female cultivator who was previously celebrating because she drew the fourth group, her face suddenly turned ugly.
“It’s over, being in a group with Senior Brother Gan is better than being divided into groups three and six.”
Gan Yiqiu was a complete battle madman, the more he fought, the more ferocious he became.
When he encountered female cultivators, he wouldn’t even be half as merciful, and even more times, he had pieced beautiful female cultivators into pig heads.
This is also the reason why, Gan Yiqiu strength is superb, like and support him less cultivators.
It is really …… that he is too ferocious!
The rest of them all looked at her with sympathetic faces, “When you meet Senior Brother Gan, you’d better hurry up and admit defeat.”
So as not to be beaten to a pulp and not be able to leave the door for half a month.
The female cultivator nodded with tears in her eyes, she would see what happens.
Only when the jade tags were almost claimed did Xu Chunniang unhurriedly step forward and casually take one of the jade tags on the table.
“Tenth group, number two.”
Xu Chunniang pinned the jade token to her chest and walked towards the tenth group’s position, and it didn’t take long before she met the remaining four opponents.
Of these four, three were male cultivators and one was a female cultivator, and they were separated by some distance, vaguely harboring hostility towards each other.
Seeing that the ones who came were not any long established experts, the few people were obviously relieved, and the atmosphere actually eased a little.
“This fellow Daoist is quite a stranger, is it your first time participating in this Outer Sect Competition?”
A thin male cultivator sized up Xu Chuniang and spoke with a smile, “It’s rare to enter the top fifty on your first time.”
Every year, many “dark horses” were always born in the preliminaries.
Most of these “dark horses” would lose in the first two matches of the official competition, and those who were able to win three matches in a row in the official competition and enter the final could be considered rare.
“She has a red birthmark on her face, her name is Xu Chuniang, haven’t you heard of her?”
Another female cultivator present picked up the conversation, “Senior Sister Xu has made quite a name for herself these days by winning consecutively all the way.”
“Oh, it’s that Senior Sister Xu who is famous for her water arrow technique and possesses a green-colored tripod weapon.”
The thin male cultivator suddenly realized, and then said meaningfully, “But now it’s the finals, and I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for Senior Sister Xu to win if she only has these tactics.”
