Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 557 Accident
"Soochow stepson lost?"

"Who did you lose to? Mo Hua? Why didn't you mention the name of this practitioner before?"

"Northern Wei... eh? Not a disciple of Beihan Pavilion?"

"The people around the stepson of the Northern Wei Dynasty? Where is the teacher's inheritance? Could it be the disciple of the Sword Master?"

Except for Jiang Yuanyuan and others who were getting into embarrassment when the face slap came too fast on the high platform, the practitioners and the public who were watching from the outside were also talking about the result of the chess game.

Mo Hua, an unknown practitioner who has been silently following by his stepson in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Ying Baoyue raised her head and looked quietly at the unattractive young man sitting opposite Zhao Guang's chessboard.

Although Zhao Guang was hailed as the stepson with the least sense of presence in this elementary ceremony, this practitioner named Mo Hua's sense of presence was even lower than Zhao Guang.

Ying Baoyue did not find any information about this person's background when he checked the information of the participants before.Usually at the scene of the elementary ceremony, this person is even more low-key and inconspicuous, and she has never seen him talk to anyone other than Meng Shi.

The deepest impression this young man left on her before was the brilliant sword that this young man swung when Meng Shi was ambushed by someone in the fight for the first place after the Ji Xia Banquet.

But that was just a very short moment of brilliance.

Most of the time, this young man is like Meng Shi's shadow, silently guarding behind him.

People can't see his purpose, let alone his depth.

"The third person in the quarterfinals has appeared!"

"I didn't expect it to be him..."

Listening to the discussions of the surrounding people, Ying Baoyue narrowed her eyes slightly.

Although this young man named Mo Hua is low-key and mysterious, his achievements are not low-key.

In the crowd battle, he kept hiding behind Meng Shi and was hard to be found, but in the first round of the personal battle against drugs, he achieved No.2 results, even surpassing Meng Shi for a while.

And this time in the war game, he also entered the top eight.

He even defeated Zhao Guang, who had an advantage in war chess battles.

Ying Baoyue quietly watched Mo Hua who was walking to the edge of the battle stage. This young man was obviously very capable, but how strong he was and why he appeared here were all a mystery.

Besides Ying Baoyue, there were several pairs of eyes staring at the young man with scars on his face.

"Who said just now that wind magicians have the advantage in war chess?" Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at Ji Jiashu beside him with a half-smile.

Both Chen Zihan and Zhao Guangke are wind masters.

But just after Chen Zihan won, Zhao Guang lost.

"I'm just saying you have an advantage, but whether you can win or not depends on the strength of your opponent," Ji Jiashu, who was ridiculed but didn't care, said calmly, "As long as the opponent is strong enough, no matter what school you belong to, you will still lose."

"Isn't Zichu like this this morning?"

Jiang Yuanyuan was taken aback when he heard the words, he almost forgot that Chen Zichu, his step-son, was also a law-breaker.And the wind magician representing Nanchu lost the first game of chess, just because...

Met that woman.

It's not that one's side is too weak, but that the opponent is too strong.

Ji Jiashu's words are equivalent to affirming the strength of that woman at the same time.

Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at the young man with a calm expression beside him, and was silent for a moment, just about to speak when two bells sounded one after another to signal the end of the chess game.

"The chess game between Jizi Meng and Young Master Ye is over!"

The crowd became commotion for a moment, because both Meng Shi and Ye Siyuan were already very famous young practitioners.

And the results of these two people did not live up to the hopes of these people.

"No. [-] chessboard, Northern Wei Dynasty, Meng Shi wins!"

"On the seventh board, Nan Chu, Ye Siyuan won."

Both were victorious.

Six games have been played on the eight chessboards on the battle stage, and there are only two places left in the quarterfinals.

After another half an hour, almost when the allotted time was about to run out, the two places were finally decided.

The two chessboards belonged to the stepson of the Later Liao Dynasty and the stepson of the Middle Tang Dynasty respectively.The final result was that the step-son of Hou Liao lost, and his opponent's Beihan Pavilion disciple entered the quarter-finals, while Song Qian, the step-son of the middle Tang Dynasty, won, becoming the only practitioner in the mid-Tang Dynasty to enter the quarter-finals.

"Sure enough, the middle Tang people who are good at doing business are not good at practice, but they are all smart," Jiang Yuanyuan sighed, "Is this Song Qian Qionghua's nephew?"

"That's right," Ji Jiashu nodded upon hearing the words, "Jun Qionghua is good at chess, even if you are ranked fifth, you may not be able to beat him."

At this time, the sky was completely bright, and the sun was about to rise to the mid-heaven. Ji Jiashu finished speaking and looked towards the battle stage.

"The 16-man battle is over, and now all eight people have been selected."

Jiang Yuanyuan shuddered when he heard the sound, and looked at the eight practitioners beside the high platform.

In the second round of the Southern Chu Elementary Ceremony, the top eight members of the war game, commonly known as the top eight members, have been decided at this time.

The winners in the end were Ying Baoyue, He Lancheng, Chen Zihan, Mo Hua, Meng Shi, Ye Siyuan, Song Qian and a boy from Beihan Pavilion.

These eight people will conduct an eight-person battle with a time limit of four hours.

The sun has become extremely hot. Since the game started yesterday, the chess game has been going on for a day and a half.

Many people who watched the whole night were exhausted and almost couldn't stand upright, and the audience who came this morning after a whole night's rest all opened their eyes wide when they saw the list of the top eight, completely unaware of what happened what.

Many examiners on the high platform were too sleepy to hold on, but the rules of the war chess game were like this, and the chess game continued.

After only an hour of intermission, the number of chessboards on the battle stage was reduced from eight to four, and the draw box was still the same, but the examiner who drew the lot was changed.

This is how the battle of eight began.

The first one to be called was of course Ying Baoyue.

And when they saw the examiner reaching out to the check box, everyone held their breath.

"Who will she draw this time?" Jiang Yuanyuan on the high platform laughed and said, "Could it be a disciple of Beihan Pavilion?"

If this is the case, this girl will probably be able to obtain the title of "Beihan Pavilion Disciple Killer" soon.

"The former Qin Ying Baoyue is right..."

But after hearing that person's name, Jiang Yuanyuan soon stopped laughing.

"Southern Chu, Chen Zihan!"

Chen Zichu, Guichen, Xu Yishan and others beside the battle stage raised their heads when they heard this name!

There were only two practitioners left in Southern Chu, and Chen Zihan met Ying Baoyue.

"Let's see if your junior sister can avenge you," Chen Zichu patted the shoulder of Xu Yishan who had just lost chess.

Xu Yishan frowned, and raised his hand to pat Chen Zichu's shoulder, "I'll see if your brother can avenge you."

The smiles of the two were stiff, and there was a love-hate relationship.

"I met Chen Zihan unexpectedly..." Tuoba Xun also showed a playful smile on the high platform, "This girl is really capable of fighting against the strongest criminal."

Shanhai Continent recently had a saying that Chen Zihan was the strongest among the young practitioners.

Wind magicians have the upper hand in war chess, and the one she meets is the strongest one.

"Who will win in the end?" Tuoba Xun said meaningfully.

While this pair is indeed complicated, the crowd continues to focus on the results of other people's draws.

And He Lancheng who went up second... got his junior.

Except for the Northern Wei people, no one should care about what he drew.

Anyway, he won't suffer.

Next, Mo Hua and Meng Shi were called one after another, Meng Shi drew Song Qian, and Mo Hua...

Ye Siyuan was drawn.

　Then a miraculous picture appeared.
