Chapter 229 The Battle for the Top Ten

Chapter 229 The Battle for the Top Ten

After the last round of battles, the top fifteen contestants of this Zongzong martial arts competition have all been decided.

Bi Daocheng stood up and announced the rules of the game.

"According to your performance in the competition, the Zongzong Elder Council has formulated a five-group match for the next round, which is also an elimination system, but for the sake of fairness, every loser has a chance to challenge the top ten players. If you win, you'll be in the top ten."

Obviously, the next round of five matches is to eliminate five more players and determine the top ten.

And this also means that all the seeded players will play. As for the direct disciples, it is obviously not yet time for them to make a move.

This kind of competition rules shows the superiority of the rankings. The higher the ranking, the fewer the number of battles. This avoids many unnecessary and one-sided battles and improves the efficiency of the competition.

"Now, Miss Shui Qingrou, please announce the list of the five teams."

After Bi Daocheng's words fell, Shui gently got up slowly, his eyes like autumn water swept towards the contestants area, and he gently parted his red lips and said: "The first group is against Ling Hantian and Duanmu group."

Before Shuirou's voice fell, the entire auditorium was boiling.

Ling Hantian and Duanmuqun are both branch warriors, but Ling Hantian is more famous because Ling Hantian once defeated the seed player Meng Tuo.

As for Duanmu Qun, although his strength is not weak, not many people are optimistic about him.

This can be seen from Duanmu Qun's dignified face.

"Jie Jie, Ling Hantian, although I am very surprised that you defeated Meng Tuo, I hope you can pass the test of Duanmuqun."

Fujita Zhanming looked at Ling Hantian jokingly, but after he finished speaking, he quickly said something to Duanmu.

Originally, Duanmuqun's expression was a little solemn, but after hearing Fujita Zhanming's words, his expression became very calm.

Ling Hantian naturally noticed this detail, apparently what Fujita Zhanming said to Duanmuqun.

"Brother Ling, be careful with this Duanmu group. The Duanmu family has an ancestral secret technique called Poison Erosion Demon Hand. It is extremely poisonous. With Duanmu group's cultivation base, even a master in the late stage of the Acquired Heaven Realm will suffer hatred if he masters the Tao."

Dai Qisi obviously knew the Duanmu family better, and when she saw Ling Hantian getting up, she reminded her.

"A secret technique that can hurt late masters in the Houtian realm?"

Ling Hantian was secretly startled, if it wasn't for Dai Qisi's reminder, maybe he would really fall into Duanmuqun's way and capsize in the gutter.

After secretly remembering this point, Ling Hantian nodded to Dai Qisi to express his gratitude, and immediately walked towards the martial arts stage with steady steps.

Duanmu group had already swept to the martial arts platform one step ahead of Ling Hantian, looking down at Ling Hantian from a high position.

"Ling Hantian, you can defeat Meng Tuo, which shows that you are very strong."

Duanmuqun hugged his arms, Ling Hantian's indifferent face, and his regular pace made him very unhappy, so he couldn't help but coldly said: "Ling Hantian, it seems that you think you can win me?"

Ling Hantian directly ignored Duanmuqun's provocative words, and stretched his muscles. Since defeating Mengtuo, Ling Hantian hadn't made a move for a long time.

"Ling Hantian, how dare you ignore me like this, okay, fine,"

Duanmuqun had the feeling of punching cotton, and Ling Hantian ignored him, which hurt his proud self-esteem. A ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and he shouted sharply: "Ling Hantian, you will do it for"

"If you want to fight, fight, then there is so much nonsense."

Ling Hantian rudely interrupted Duanmuqun's words, making the latter look as if he had eaten a dead fly, his face flushed, and his body trembled slightly because of anger.

"Poison Devil's Hand!"

Duanmuqun was completely enraged by Ling Hantian, he shouted violently, the black real essence boiled, his hands drew a mysterious arc, bent into the shape of ghost claws, and covered with a thin layer of black mist.

From a distance, Ling Hantian smelled a disgusting stench, and even the black mist spilled over the ground, corroding a small hole in the ground of the martial arts platform.

Apparently, the black mist above Duanmuqun's pair of ghost-clawed hands was highly poisonous.

"Ling Hantian, go to hell!"

A stern look flashed in Duanmuqun's eyes, and he rushed towards Ling Hantian waving his ghost claws.

Before getting close, Ling Hantian closed his mouth and nose, and even closed his eyes to prevent being hurt by Duanmuqun's poisonous gas.

The powerful soul force was mobilized, and everything on the martial arts field was within Ling Hantian's perception.

Seeing that Ling Hantian had closed his eyes, Duanmuqun sneered. Of course, he would not think that Ling Hantian was waiting to die like a fool. He could see that Ling Hantian was very afraid of his poisonous gas attack.

"Haha, Ling Hantian, do you think that by closing your mouth, nose and eyes, you can resist my poisonous devil's hand? You are so naive!"

Duanmu group laughed wildly, and grabbed Ling Hantian's face, the thick black mist almost enveloped Ling Hantian.

"It's over, it's over, although this Ling Hantian is very powerful, if he is shrouded by the Duanmu family's poisonous demon, he will inevitably be defeated."

An old student from Tianxuanzong turned his head, unable to bear to see the scene where Ling Hantian was hit by the poison-eating demon.

"That's right, this poisonous demon from the Duanmu family is very domineering, even I have to deal with it carefully."

A disciple of Tianxuanzong who was at the early stage of Houtian Realm also nodded in agreement. If Ling Hantian was enveloped by this poisonous demon, he would definitely be defeated.

"Brother Ling, why don't you flash?"

Dai Qisi frowned tightly, she didn't believe that Ling Hantian had no way to dodge, but she couldn't think of any trump card Ling Hantian had that could defuse Duanmuqun's domineering attack.

Meng Tuo folded his arms in one hand and rested his chin in the other. As the only contestant present who had fought against Ling Hantian, he deeply knew how powerful Ling Hantian was. .

"Meng Tuo, don't worry, this Ling Hantian is very strong, and Duanmu Qun will be defeated."

With a calm expression, Qingyun turned his eyes away from the martial arts stage, saw Mengtuo's puzzled expression, and said calmly.

Almost at the moment when Qingyun's voice fell, Ling Hantian, who had been standing on the martial arts stage and had not moved all this time, moved.

It was just an extremely simple movement, and a bunch of blue flames appeared in Ling Hantian's palm, followed by a fiery breath.

The cyan flames grew stronger against the wind and turned into billowing flames. The raging flames swept out and directly rushed Duanmu group out of the martial arts platform.

Duanmuqun didn't have the slightest resistance, and was burned by the flames released by Ling Hantian. His clothes were naked, his hair was scorched black, and his body was burnt to pieces.

Second defeat!

Another second defeat!

The audience was stunned!

No one guessed the outcome of the game!

After a short period of astonishment, many people gasped and looked at Ling Hantian on the martial arts stage with deep shock in their eyes.

Most of the people present could see that the raging flame that Ling Hantian used just now was the top fire.

The top fire is definitely not Chinese cabbage, even Tianxuanzong only has two.

Ling Hantian, who has always been quiet, revealed such a trump card in the top ten competition, which made many people feel frightened!

In particular, the faces of the five major direct disciples all became serious.

Although Ling Hantian didn't fully use the power of a top fire seed just now, who knows how much power Ling Hantian can use the top fire seed?
If Ling Hantian can use all the power of the top fire, then who is his opponent in this Zongzong meeting?
However, judging from Ling Hantian's realm and cultivation base, no one wants to believe that Ling Hantian can use [-]% of the power of a top fire.

But even judging by the power Ling Hantian just showed, Ling Hantian can at least use one-third of the power of the top fire, which is about the attack power of the middle stage of the Houtian realm.

If this is Ling Hantian's limit, the several personal disciples still have the confidence to fight Ling Hantian.

The referee opened his mouth, looked at the somewhat thin figure in front of him in disbelief, and loudly announced that Ling Hantian had won.
