I can travel between two planes

Chapter 88 Darkness, too dark

"I have to say with regret that only one player from the Tianji Sect can participate in today's competition."

Sima Yuan said in a low tone.

"This is our relapse and we are very sorry."

There was a lot of scolding in the audience.

These are the voices of those who support the Tianji Sect.

Li Yuying is the only one left in the Tianji Zong competition group.

It's a ghost!
Might as well pack up and go home early!
And at this moment, Song Gucheng's voice suddenly came from the arena:
"Wait a moment, Lord Sima, can I speak?"

Song Gucheng floated above the Tianji Sect's viewing seats, with his hands behind his back, looking confident.

The sound on the field suddenly became much quieter.

Many people looked at him with puzzled eyes.

Is this a protest against the competition?
Also, if the match started like this, the Tianji Sect would undoubtedly lose.

It's better to take advantage of being sympathized with at this moment, and get more benefits for your team.

Even if you bring an extra weapon or a pill, that is still an advantage.

But what Song Gucheng wanted to say was different from what most people thought.

"According to Article 2859 of Supplementary Clause 12 on page 7 of the "General Rules of the Bay City Zongmen Tournament", contestants who are forced to be absent due to accidents may submit an application by the sect themselves to exchange with players from other groups .

Therefore, there will not be only one player from Tianjizong.

We will draw two players from the refining group or the alchemy group as supplements, and they will participate normally! "

Song Gucheng's remarks caused an uproar in the audience.

"Ah? Is there really such a clause?"

"The rules of the game are so thick, who can read it all."

"The dignified Pavilion Master of Tianji Sect will definitely not speak big words."

"It's really a pity that Tianjizong is careful, otherwise, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

Sima Yuan was also surprised when he heard this.

Turning to look at his daughter Sima Tong beside him, he asked, "Is this true?"

The person who wrote the "General Rules of the Bay City Zongmen Competition" back then.

It was none other than Sima Tong.

This work was drafted by her and several legal experts in Bay City.

But at the moment Sima Tong was also surprised.

She did remember the supplement and was impressed.

Because this is the back door she deliberately left in the rules to prevent accidents.

Sima Tong has his own thoughts.

She predicted that no one would seriously read such a large book of competition rules.

Find that little list of rule loopholes in the fly-sized font.

Sima Tong originally planned to stand up and rescue Tianjizong after Sima Yuan finished speaking.

In this way, maybe a few more trade agreements can be finalized during the celebration banquet at night.

The function of this backdoor clause is to sell favors.

That is, as it is now.

After all, Gulf City is just an island, not as vast and abundant as Tianji City and Great Xia Kingdom.

They have been greedy for imported materials from the Tianji Sect for a long time.

As for fairness?

She never thought about it.

Zongmen Dabi is just a means for Haiwan City to achieve prosperity.

As long as the superficial fairness is maintained and the game continues, there is no need to care about the rest.

Besides, she didn't let anyone suffer, did she?

But Sima Tong never expected it.

Someone would actually study that tome that was deliberately extended to be thicker than a brick.

And accurately found out the backdoor clause.

This was the first time she had stumbled in a calculation.

Sima Tong smiled wryly, then showed an open-minded smile, and nodded to his father.

"Yes, that's true."

"It turned out to be so."

Sima Yuan supported his long beard in surprise.

This statement came out.

There was another commotion under the stage.

Song Gucheng raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and nodded approvingly to Jiang Xian: "Fortunately, you are careful."

"It's not my fault alone. We searched for it separately."

Jiang Xian said modestly: "Tong Wulei, Xiao Yan and Gu Mengwan all helped a lot."

Li Yuying's mood was like riding a roller coaster, and the cloudy turned sunny on the spot.

Laughing and patting Jiang Xian and Tong Wulei on the back.

Then hug Xiaoyan and Gu Mengwan one by one.

The other disciples of Tianji Sect also slowly came to their senses.

Immediately, they surrounded Jiang Xian and the others, curiously inquiring about what happened.

No one paid attention to the Ye family father and son with gloomy faces in the corner.

"How do you know that there are loopholes in the competition rules?"

Lu Hongshang asked curiously.

Jiang Xian explained for her.

In fact, this is also a helpless move.

From the time they learned of the accident, to the start of the game the next day.

Also less than 7 hours.

There is a limit to what they can do in such a short amount of time.

Therefore, Jiang Xian chose to focus on the rules of the Zongmen Grand Competition.

He has been wondering about one thing.

In such a serious game of the Zongmen Grand Competition, they didn't even consider a 'substitute'.

It's unbelievable.

The whole event seems to have no room for maneuver in the face of unexpected situations.

At least that's how it generally appears from the outside world.

Because it never happened before, no one cared about it.

But when something really happened, he was caught blind at once.

No wonder Jiang Xian was suspicious.

Whether it is the Zongmen Grand Competition or the rules of the competition, Sima Tong decides to draft them.

It's still pretty famous.

During the communication with Sima Tong, Jiang Xian couldn't tell that this was a stupid female monk.

On the contrary.

She is extremely intelligent and knowledgeable.

Does a person like this fail to take the unexpected into account when making the rules?

It's impossible to think logically.

But why there has been no statement about this.

Even people like Song Gucheng, who lived long enough to participate in every sect competition, were numb.

Who concealed it?

For what purpose?
Jiang Xian was too lazy to speculate on Sima Tong's mental journey.

But he is [-]% sure.

Sima Tong probably hid something in the competition rules that they didn't know.

when they find that book.

Seeing that thickness, Jiang Xian knew that he had made the right bet.

The rules of the game are laid out to make people daunting.

A normal rulebook wouldn't be that troublesome.

It's not criminal law, it doesn't need to be rigorous to that degree, as long as people can understand it is enough.

Anyway, the power of interpretation always rests with the referee.

It's a big tome, and it's obvious that I don't want people to delve into it.

At that time, the two corners of Jiang Xian's mouth curled down, revealing Batman's classic expression - suspicion.

Suspicious, too suspicious.

Sima Tong must have left a back door in it to benefit her or Haiwan City.

And it's a well-planned plan.

Perhaps that is the key to solving this crisis.

Now it seems that Sima Tong's purpose of hiding such a loophole clause is very clear.

It is to sell favors to the four major sects.

This is a conspiracy that can only be used once.

After using it once, everyone will know it and lose its effect.

But that time.

It is enough to earn enough benefits for Bay City.

And the price is just to write a thick book, and then be more perfunctory when outsiders understand the rules.

It can be called a steady profit without loss.

For Sima Tong, this should be just an idle move.

It doesn't matter if you can make money or not.

The important thing is to create such a possibility for the future to blossom and bear fruit.

Who knows if this move of leisure will change the fate of Bay City in the future.

An idler like this doesn't know how much Sima Tong let go.

But it doesn't matter.

Now, Jiang Xian wants to be thankful for her little thought.

We should also be thankful that they were sharp and persistent enough to seize this flaw.

But it's just the beginning.

What they did was to barely pull the number advantage of Tianji Sect to the same level as other sects.

I want to get a ranking in the competition of the competition group.

Still busy.
