Fighting the Happy Emperor

Chapter 154 The battle for the top rankings begins!
Canaan College, inner courtyard, central square.

At this time, it was early spring and March, the snow had almost melted, and new shoots had sprouted. The warm sunlight broke through the thick clouds and sprinkled on the largest site in the inner courtyard.Although the weather is still slightly cold at this time, it is not a problem at all for these inner courtyard students.Everyone was wearing long-sleeved shirts, or just wearing an undershirt, regardless of the strong wind that blew from time to time.

Although the weather is a bit cold, the central square is full of bustling and noisy crowds, bringing a bit of enthusiasm to this cold early spring. The central square is the largest venue in the inner courtyard. This square is not open to the public on weekdays.Only when the Inner Court holds competitions, the Cultural Society will open it, and as the most exciting "Strong List" competition in the Inner Court, it is naturally the place to hold it.

Although it occupies a very large area in the central square, today, it is still filled with countless dark heads. Looking around, the bustling crowd spread around with noise, and finally gathered into a stream, heading straight towards Yunxiao. .

Standing on the high platform, looking down, I saw that the spacious field was neatly divided into five platforms. Obviously, this should be the battle for the top ranking of the competition venue!As students in the inner courtyard, undoubtedly the bottom-level training opportunities of the 'Tianfeng Qi Training Tower' are the most important to them.Although the 'Tianfeng Qi Training Tower' was destroyed in a disaster half a year ago, as long as it can break into the top ranking list, there are still other rewards.

Therefore, this competition is almost a symbol of the confrontation among the most outstanding students in the inner courtyard. As geniuses gathered from all over the place, these contestants, who are not arrogant If you stand out in this competition that is not weak in competitiveness, if you don't have a little foundation, you may only become a stepping stone for others to go up.It can be said that no matter the scale or level of the competition for the top rankings, it is far inferior to the selection competitions in the inner court.

Anyone who has reached the Dou Ling cultivation level can sign up for the competition for the top list, and four people including Han Yue, Lin Yan, Lei Yun, and Liu Qing can naturally also participate.However, the inner court at this time can be said to be at its peak state, and there are even a few students who are Dou Wang, let alone nearly ten Dou Ling peak powerhouses.Therefore, Han Yue and Lin Yan had some self-knowledge, so they didn't go up to join in the fun.

However, their non-participation does not mean that Liu Qing and Lei Yun will not participate. Although they may not be able to enter the strong list, they can at least exercise themselves. Stepping into the Dou Ling Six Stars, Han Yue and Lin Yan are naturally incomparable.

A total of more than 50 people signed up to participate in this competition for the top list. In addition to the original 300 people for the top list, at least nearly 11 people participated, which shows the scale of this competition for the top list.In fact, this is not surprising, because Great Elder Su Qiansu once promised before signing up that if he wins the top ten places in this competition, he can get an extra sixth-grade pill Yijin Forging Bone Pill and a Five-rank pill Yiling Dan, ten four-rank restorative pills; those who get No.30 to No.[-] can get the same rewards as the top ten except for sixth-rank pills!As long as they can enter the strong list, ten fourth-grade restorative elixir is a sure thing.And at the worst, they can also get a participation award: three fourth-grade restorative elixir!
Remember, this is just an additional reward, that is to say, the rewards that can be obtained in the previous top ranking battles are still the same!

"Wow" At that time, Su Qian's voice just fell, and all the students were boiling.Why?It's easy!
We all know that fists and feet have no eyes, so every time you participate in a battle, you will often be injured, but the inner courtyard is not responsible. That is to say, unless your injury is serious, otherwise it is like the cost of a restorative elixir Whatever, you have to come out by yourself.Undoubtedly, there are still many people in the inner courtyard who are reluctant to part with this elixir. After all, there are so many talented people in the inner courtyard, and they don't have the strength to advance to the next level. If they go up and get abused, it will hurt people and money!However, it is different now, with those three elixirs, at least after one round, even if he is eliminated, he can still keep two elixirs.Furthermore, those who can participate in the strong list battle have some means at the last time, (those who try to fish in troubled waters will naturally be banned when they sign up.) Fighting, it is not bad for your own cultivation!
In this way, the number of participants reached the highest level ever!
Boom!
In the extremely noisy venue, the ancient bell rang suddenly again, and the bell lingered in the square. Under this bell, the noisy sound also gradually decreased until it finally disappeared completely.

laugh!
The chime of the bell quietly fell, and there was a sudden burst of wind in the sky. When everyone looked up, they could only see a fleeting blurry figure, and then looked down, but they saw more than a dozen elderly figures. There were elders from Canaan College on the seats on the special high platform in the square, and there were also some people from the forces that had good relations with Canaan College.After all, the students in the inner courtyard still have to be sold. Except for some geniuses who are bound by family power, the rest of the students from ordinary families often choose to join a certain power after graduation.The so-called fat water does not flow to outsiders, naturally, those who can stand out in the top rankings and have a clean net worth are also kept by the academy.Worst of all, those forces that are vassals under the academy or allied with the academy can also get a share of it.

At this time, Su Qiangao was sitting on the main seat, and the one on the right was Li Qi, who had made a big splash in the catastrophe half a year ago.At this time, Su Qian tapped the pear wood handrail with his fingers, his eyes gleaming, and asked: "Li Qi, what are you doing this for? Don't tell me that you are just for fun. Since it is for fun, why are you doing this?" How could it be possible to give out such a generous amount of pills as a reward?" Indeed, Li Qi gave so many pills to the academy for free as rewards for the battle for the top rankings. People are vigilant.

"Didn't I say that Li Xiaoyao and Suzaku can enter the top [-] ranking competition without passing the knockout round? That's my condition. Isn't that enough?" Li Qi happily sipped the tea , eating an unknown melon and fruit, a trace of complacency flashed across his face, even Su Qian, who had been paying attention to Li Qi, didn't notice anything wrong.

"It's strange to believe you! These pills are enough to bankrupt a medium-sized family, but they only get two places? If it weren't for the fact that you helped the academy, you didn't have any malice towards the academy. How could this old man be so easy?" So I promise you?" Su Qian slandered, but there was still a smile on her face, showing no dissatisfaction at all.A city like Su Qian's can be called a fox among foxes, he can be called a vixen!
Knowing that Su Qian would not trust him so much, Li Qi was not surprised.If you trust yourself with only a few words, then there is really a ghost!
"Anyway, that's all my purpose. No matter how you defend yourself, it's still useless!"

"Great Elder, let's start!" A middle-aged man sitting at the bottom stood up, with a gangster look that made people look sideways.But it would be wrong to think that he is just a bandit guy. The storm-like powerful aura hidden under the bandit aura is his true face.He is Kabalu, who is called "the mad dog in the academy" by the hostile forces of the Canaan Academy, nicknamed "crazy".During the catastrophe half a year ago, he was alone in the outer court and blocked another force except Han Feng from attacking the inner court.Although later he had the help of Hu Gan and other high-level officials from the outer court, he was still seriously injured and has not recovered to this day.However, it is enough to serve as the referee of this battle for the top rankings. After all, one must have strength to stop the game at a critical juncture. After all, all the players participating in the game are treasures in the academy, and it is difficult to be disabled or dead. Estimated loss!

"En." Su Qian nodded slightly.

Kabalu walked forward slowly, pressing his hands together. Immediately, the whole square was filled with the sound of breathing.Kabalu's eyes slowly swept across the audience, and finally stopped on the densely packed contestants on the high platform, with a faint smile in his eyes, and a slightly hoarse and deep voice, which was heard by everyone in the audience. rings in.

Those who rank above the strong list are exempted from the test and enter the venue!The rest will pass the knockout round in five points, and each person will only have one chance!
As Su Qian's voice fell, for a moment, only the figures on the high platform flickered, one after another figure drew arcs in mid-air, and finally landed in the square randomly, raised his head, and looked at the countless people around him. In the head, a fiery fighting spirit quietly swelled!

The competition is coming! !

Under the leadership of some guiding elders, these forty strong men who temporarily represented the highest combat power in the inner courtyard were ushered into another stand one after another.

"Since the number of people is complete, the competition can begin." Kabalu said with a cruel smile on his lips, "However, before the competition, I still have to remind that although the atmosphere in the inner courtyard is open, it is often It is difficult to kill. After all, you are still students, and you are not in a place where people cannibalize people like the Black Corner. Although the inner courtyard has a slightly bloody place like the arena, the original intention is to temper you, not to fight hard. It's a life-and-death situation, so everyone still controls the scales. But "

Speaking of this, Kabalu raised his tone a little, and said with excitement, "It's different now, just for those rewards and to get a better ranking, who can guarantee that he will be merciful! So, For the sake of your lives, so that you will not lose too badly, I still suggest that you do your best and treat every match as a battle of life and death! Only in this way can you go further on the road of martial arts Far! Of course, you don’t have to worry about hitting too hard, once there is a dangerous situation, I will stop it as soon as possible!”

Hearing Kabalu's words, some contestants nodded slightly, but most of them were noncommittal. In this kind of competition, who would not go all out in order to enter the top ten?Under full force, strength is difficult to control, accidents are always inevitable, your speed is fast, can you beat the people on the court?
The sunlight swept across the faces of those contestants, and Kabalu shook his head in disdain. The atmosphere in the inner court is still not tough enough. In that arena, some rookies who didn't know how to fight, although they have already had a bit of fighting They looked like experienced prairie wolves, but it was a bit difficult to fully arouse their ferocity.

"The rules are the same as before, draw lots to determine the opponent." Seeing that what he said didn't achieve much effect, Kabalu stopped talking nonsense and said in a deep voice.After all, only one who has experienced hardships knows how dangerous the journey of cultivation is.Now, these students are nothing more than flowers in the greenhouse.

As the words fell, his sleeve robe lightly waved, and suddenly a piece of torn black cloth not far from the people waiting on the high platform fell down.The stone platform below is exposed. On the stone platform, there is a large wooden tube, which contains many bamboo sticks.

"There are only red, white, blue, and purple even-numbered lotteries in the tube, with numbers from one to fifty on them, and the numbers are relative. For example, if you draw a blue lottery with twelve, then your opponent is a red-backed lottery with twelve." Holder. If the white-bottom lottery 39 is drawn, the opponent is also the purple-bottom lottery 39! After the first game is completed, it will be against opponents of the same number in other colors." Kabalu briefly explained the lottery rules, this thing It's not complicated, so students who experience this for the first time can understand it immediately.

"Alright, the lottery begins!"

One by one, the contestants walked to the stone platform in an orderly manner.Then he took out a bamboo stick from it, and after reading out his own number, he backed away.

"This Kabalu is still the same as before, but will it be too cruel to those students?" An elder sitting next to Su Qian asked.

"No." Su Qian shook her head and said bitterly: "You all know about the catastrophe half a year ago. If everyone in our inner court is as fierce as Kabalu, why should we be afraid of Han Feng? So, today I That’s why Kabalu was arranged to be the referee!”

Everyone was silent when they heard the words.Indeed, Kabalu was able to block the wave of forces comparable to Han Feng and others with his own strength, which was far beyond his reach.

"Yeah, since I got Kabalu all these years, I've been less exposed to these bloody things. The fighting spirit in my chest has been worn away in these comfortable days!"

All the elders on the stage are reflecting on themselves, and the field assignment has been completed.A curtain with a size of more than ten square meters was hung on the high platform, with densely packed names all over it, connected with threads of different colors.There are two people standing next to them. Once one of the contestants fails, one of them will be responsible for crossing out that person's name, and at the same time determine the contestants for another duel; Notify to go to the four major arenas.

When the lottery is over, take your place.

Boom!
The battle begins
