Ning Qian felt envious of Dugujian's talent, but it was just envy.

Because he knows that two people take different paths, and many things cannot be generalized.

Dugujian can specialize in one thing, but if he specializes in one thing, it will be difficult for the system to be used to its fullest extent.

Being omnipotent may make the road to martial arts go slower, but the benefits are obvious.

The methods are more diverse and the fighting methods are more flexible.

Of course, this does not mean that there is anything wrong with choosing to specialize in one. It is just a choice. It only depends on whether it is suitable. There is no good or bad distinction.

However, at this moment, Ning Qian's heart also aroused strong fighting spirit. He could see that Dugu Jian was definitely a very powerful warrior.

Even more powerful than the previous Yang Wucheng, fighting him may be a tough battle, but it will definitely allow Ning Qian to examine more of his current problems.

Although martial arts have different realms, if you want to find out the deficiencies, you must see them through combat.

Without fighting, everything you learn is just behind closed doors, and there will definitely be many flaws.

Just like the concrete on a certain floor of a high-rise building is not strong enough, when it reaches a certain height, there will be a risk of overturning.

So from this moment on, Ning Qian also began to look forward to the possible battle with Dugu Jian.

This Qianlong competition seems to have become interesting.

……

No matter how much Ning Qian looks forward to the next battle, the competition must continue according to the process.

Therefore, his meeting with Dugu Jian may have to wait until a long time later.

But finally, the appearance of Dugujian brought a bit of brightness to this competition, making him feel that this competition was not so boring.

And at the same time, he was also very curious about something.

That is, why hasn’t that demon taken action yet?

According to his speculation, Xia Xuanfeng's purpose in holding this competition must be to find blood food for the demon.

But why, when so many people gathered to catch them all in one fell swoop, the monster didn’t appear?

Could it be that the demon is not confident in taking down so many people?

Ning Qian was not a tapeworm in the monster's belly, and of course he didn't know what the monster was thinking, so he could only tell Nan Shuyuan to be more vigilant in case problems really arise.

Fortunately, the Grand Master had no complaints. Otherwise, even Nan Shujie would not be able to handle the emotions of a Grand Master.

Of course, this great master is actually Nan Shujie’s great-grandfather.

The Grand Master's lifespan is as long as five hundred years.

Zhennan Prince's Mansion has been operating for so many years, and of course there are several great masters who have taken care of it.

It's just that it's very difficult to break through the Grand Master. Most of the princes died in the innate realm and are not qualified to have a glimpse of the Grand Master's realm.

So even the Grand Master of Zhennan Palace only has three or two big cats and kittens.

Each one is very valuable.

Being able to have one this time is mainly because I am worried about the safety of the two daughters of Zhennan Palace.

After all, the capital is a place of right and wrong. If the Xia family plans to overturn the table, with the protection of the Grand Master, the two of them can safely return to Zhenguo Mansion.

Precisely because the Grand Master accepted this task, he had no objection to Ning Qian's ideas.

After all, if there really is such a monster, whether it is Nan Shuyuan or Nan Shujie, the safety of both of them is very important.

Even if not, just treat it as personal protection for Nan Shuyuan.

After all, compared to Nan Shuyuan, Nan Shujie seems to be more aware of the reason why the son of a rich man cannot sit down in court, and is very protective of himself.

That is to say, Nan Shuyuan is a little willful in doing things, so he needs to put more thought into it.

But no one knew that tonight, when all of them returned to the inn, those young foreign geniuses were kidnapped the moment they left the capital.

The capital seems to have become a place that you can only enter but not leave.

Those young geniuses who failed in the competition were taken away as soon as they stepped out of the gate of the capital.

In an eerie underground darkroom, these young geniuses were tied up and brought in, and thrown into a huge pool in the center of the room.

There is a stone pillar in the center of the pool, and sitting on it is a young man with an ordinary face.

The man looked very thin, with a gloomy look in his eyes. He was wearing a red robe and looked very scary.

The geniuses raised their heads.

I don’t know why, but they couldn’t clearly see the man’s appearance.

The brave ones raised their heads and shouted: "Who are you? Why did you bring me here?"

But the man didn't talk to me.

What’s there to talk about about food?

With just a gentle pressure from his hands, the geniuses instantly felt endless pressure and tried to mobilize their true energy to resist, but they found that their true energy had already been locked and they could not do anything at all.

I can only watch all this in horror.

Soon, countless black swarms of insects flew out from behind the men and rushed towards the young men like overwhelming sun!

Then, the swarm of insects completely enveloped the young men, and terrifying chewing sounds were heard.

"Ah..."

The geniuses screamed in pain, but in such an underground darkroom, no one could hear their screams.

The man looked at this scene with joy and excitement on his face: "Eat! Eat! These are your rations."

His smile was perverted and terrifying, and the entire basement was covered by his smile.

Not long after, the insect swarm returned.

"Ah——"

The man looked comfortable and enjoying himself, but at his feet, those geniuses had nothing left. The entire darkroom was empty, with nothing left except dust.

This swarm of insects didn’t even leave a trace of bone meal behind!

……

The knockout rounds have been going on for a few days.

It's in full swing.

Thanks to Xia Xuanfeng's powerful ability to conceal information, no one knew that those young geniuses who had left the capital had begun to die in batches.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The young geniuses who will leave the capital are all from the border areas or whose families are not in the capital, and it will take a certain amount of time for them to get news about their geniuses.

And this time difference is what Xia Xuanfeng needs.

Of course, he never thought that he could hide the news forever. As long as he could delay it for a few more days, he felt it was enough.

As long as the time delay is long enough, he will not have to block the news, because by then, he will have enough strength to suppress all dissatisfied voices!

Ning Qian didn't know what Xia Xuanfeng was thinking, or everyone present didn't know what Xia Xuanfeng was thinking. Their goal was just to defeat their opponents.

Of course, they just don’t know that their efforts are meaningless.

Lu Zhengying always finds it uninteresting to watch this kind of battle in the acquired realm, because to him, such a battle is like a child playing around, with no meaning at all.

If it weren't for Dugu Jian, he would never have watched such a boring competition.

And there was another thing that he felt a little puzzling about, which was that Xia Xuanfeng had been delaying giving him the Demon Sealing Order during this period.

This incident made him a little annoyed, but he was not the type to lose his temper at will, so he could only face Xia Xuanfeng's words with indifference.

It's just that Xia Xuanfeng speaks nicely, and there is a high-ranking emperor by his side, who is on his side, so even if he intends to shame him, for a while he doesn't know whether he should be angry with him because of this incident.

In his opinion, Xia Xuanfeng's purpose is obvious.

Just to hold him back and let him watch this Qianlong competition.

Thinking of this, he looked at the competition in front of him with some interest.

Because in this world, it is difficult to find another emperor who is willing to do these things for the geniuses under his command.

Although Lu Zhengming is not an emperor, from the perspective of an ordinary person, such an emperor is indeed good.

Xia Xuanfeng didn't know that he had been imagined as a good emperor who loved his people like his own son.

At this moment, he was still feeling a little happy that Lu Zhengming had not left.

Because he knows very well that the people in Canglan Academy should be very arrogant. Faced with such a boring competition, it is probably impossible to calm down and watch.

But what he didn't expect was that Lu Zhengming came here rain or shine in the past few days, and he would not fall behind in every competition.

Xia Xuanfeng didn't know the reason for this, so he could only attribute it to Lu Zhengming's bad taste.

He may never know in his life that his behavior moved Lu Zhengming.

Ning Qian slowly stepped onto the competition ring, and the next competition was his.
