One Lu Feng and Tang Yuan participated in the formation competition and the other participated in the martial arts competition. Although they participated in different events, the competition venues were not far away.
The square in Nuoda was filled with onlookers.
There are three independent huge stone platforms in the center of the square, where the spirit fighting arena is located.
Before the game, Lu Feng and the two had already obtained the list of participants, and also knew their respective appearance numbers, time and other things.
The requirements for the Soul Fighting Competition are very strict. All participants must be above the Fourth Soul Realm and be in the first year, that is, under the age of twenty-five.
So the number of people participating was not very large.
The martial arts competition is the one with the largest number of people, reaching more than 300 people.
After all, martial arts masters are the mainstream in mainland China.
Fighting formations and medicine fighting are second best, with less than a hundred people taking part.
After arriving at the arena, Lu Feng and Tang Yuan dispersed.
Lu Feng came to the arena of fighting formation, which had many more rules than fighting martial arts.
A martial arts fight only requires two to fight to determine the winner, but this is not the case in a battle formation.
The battle formation competition held by Tianyuan City is divided into three stages: in the first stage, a total of 68 people participated, and they competed for basic theoretical knowledge of formations. In the end, the top 20 with the best results were selected based on comprehensive rankings of answering speed and accuracy.
name;
In the second stage, there will be an inscription competition to select the top twelve;
In the third stage, the top six will be selected through a competition;
Finally, they were divided into three groups and played against each other in pairs to determine the top three.
Tianyuan City's Soul Fighting Competition is organized by Tianyuan City's Prison Palace and the major palaces. The scale is so wide that even the soul masters from several neighboring towns came here to sign up for the competition.
Prison officer Xia Xuhua announced the rules from a high position, and his subordinates arranged order.
Everything is very orderly.
Lu Feng listened to the arrangement and came to the stone platform in the fighting area. Among the sixty-eight stone tables, he found the seat that belonged to him.
Ranked last.
After everyone was seated, the three supervisors came on stage at the same time and distributed the scrolls prepared by many formation masters of the Blue Sky Formation Association for this round of competition.
After the distribution was completed, the supervisor rang the gong and announced that the first round of competition had officially begun.
This is a contest about formation knowledge.
It is also the most direct and effective way to test the foundation of an array master.
…
"On the use of psychic patterns?"
“What is the difference between gold accumulation lines and moistening lines?”
"How to arrange a four-corner array with three jade stones?"
…
Lu Feng looked at the extremely simple questions on the scrolls displayed on the stone table. Without any pause, he started writing quickly.
To him, these rough formation knowledge were not even as good as the entry level of Linglong Valley, and it was effortless to answer them.
He even answered multiple questions and gave many novel answers one after another.
There are a total of three supervisors who maintain order in the examination room. Their strength has reached the Chakra Realm. They are out-and-out Chakra Realm Formation Masters and belong to the Blue Sky Formation Association around Tianyuan City.
The prison officer spent a lot of effort to invite them to supervise this competition.
One of them was walking leisurely. When he came to Lu Feng, he couldn't help but stop. He frowned and stared at the scroll in Lu Feng's hand, his eyes gleaming with surprise.
He waved to the other two people and motioned them to come over and check.
When the other two people arrived, they stood there in astonishment just like him.
The three of them formed a triangle and surrounded Lu Feng. After repeatedly confirming that Lu Feng was not suspected of cheating, a trace of surprise arose in their eyes.
Lu Feng slowly raised his head and looked at the three stunned supervisors around him. He immediately realized that he answered the questions too fast and attracted attention.
I really can’t keep a low profile even if I want to.
There were a hundred questions in total. It would take an ordinary person an hour to answer them, but it only took him half a cup of tea, which was several times faster than others.
Lu Feng handed over the completed scroll in his hand to one of the supervisors and slowly walked down the stone platform.
Three wooden chickens were left with shocked faces.
There is still a lot of time before the second stage of the engraving competition, and Lu Feng can just go and watch Tang Yuan's competition.
"Give this answer sheet to the supervisor," a supervisor said after carefully examining Lu Feng's answer sheet, his eyes became even more surprised.
He found that Lu Feng's answer sheet not only had perfect answers, but also contained some knowledge and methods that even he had never heard of. He secretly thought that there was something feasible about it.
"Genius, absolutely genius!"
This is the first impression the three supervisors had on Lu Feng.
In addition to the three supervisors, at the moment when Lu Feng handed in the papers, there were many young girls on the court with sparkles in their eyes. They had mixed feelings when they saw Lu Feng's leaving figure.
"Writing so fast? You must be cheating, right?"
"I only wrote a third of it...he must have written it blindly."
"It's so fast. I'm sure I haven't finished writing. I guess I know I won't pass, so I'm just pretending to show off!"
The boys and girls made random guesses in their minds, none of them were optimistic about Lu Feng.
Fighting arena.
Compared with the fighting arena, the order in the fighting arena is much more chaotic. The huge stone platform is subdivided into three areas for two-by-two battles.
Each time there are six people on the field, fighting hundreds of moves.
If there is no winner within a hundred moves, it will go to the next round, and the loser will be eliminated directly.
"It's not your turn yet?" Lu Feng came to Tang Yuan and found that he was still waiting.
Tang Yuan smiled helplessly: "It's over."
Lu Feng looked at Tang Yuan in surprise.
Tang Yuan helplessly shrugged his shoulders: "I just met an opponent in the Soul Gathering and Soul Realm, and the opponent gave up before he could do anything."
Lu Feng couldn't help but smile. With Tang Yuan's current strength, there were few opponents in the Chakra Realm. If an opponent in the Soul Gathering Realm matched him, they would probably have to give up in despair.
Tang Yuanchao Lu Feng got closer, with a hint of joy, and said softly: "I have discovered a sonic spiritual skill, which was inspired by the previous eagle roar."
Lu Feng was surprised and said: "Spiritual skills?"
You must know that there are very few people who know spiritual skills in the entire Qinglong Town. Tang Yuan can have spiritual skills by just comprehending them at will?
Lu Feng couldn't help but realize that the Beast Yuan Jue that Tang Yuan had cultivated might be much more powerful than he expected.
Tang Yuan nodded, "Although it is still immature, I can feel that the 'Black Dragon Roar' is at least a spiritual skill level, and as my strength improves, its power will also increase."
Lu Feng looked at Tang Yuan in horror. If what he said was true, how could this Black Dragon Roar be just a spiritual skill?
Techniques that can increase power as one's strength increases, obviously transcending the constraints of rank.
After being surprised, Lu Feng quickly regained his composure. Black Dragon Pill was so rare after all. Even if Tang Yuan discovered a more powerful technique, there would be nothing surprising.
Looking towards the fighting platform, Lu Feng asked: "How is the fighting going now?"
Tang Yuan's face was still filled with joy, "There are still more than 200 people left, among whom there are dozens who have reached the Chakra Realm and seven or eight who have reached the Core Condensation Realm."
Lu Feng's expression became more serious after hearing about the Condensing Core Realm. Although he couldn't stop Tang Yuan from competing, he still warned: "If you encounter a strong enemy, fight if you can, and retreat if you lose. The outcome is not important.
.”
Tang Yuan nodded solemnly: "If the opponent has not learned spiritual skills and has not understood the means of life soul attack, even if he is in the Condensing Core Realm, he will still be able to fight."
With the arrogant animal nature brought by the Black Dragon Pill and Tang Yuan's own mysterious body training techniques, with the blessing of the two, Tang Yuan's strength far exceeds the ordinary chakra realm, and is close to the condensation realm.
After Lu Feng watched several fights, he returned to the fighting arena.
There are still many people there who are still staying on the stone platform, thinking hard about 'esoteric' topics.
"Time's up, stop writing!"
The supervisor gave an order to stop all the contestants and took away the answer sheets in their hands one by one without mercy.
All the answer sheets were saved after being reviewed by three supervisors. Except for a few excellent answer sheets that were submitted to the supervisor, the others had no value.
After a short break, the supervisor came to Shitai with the approved and arranged list.
Announcing the results to the crowd, announcing the top twenty people in the written test!
"Lu Feng!"
There is no doubt that the first name the supervisor read out was Lu Feng, which made him the target of public criticism and attracted everyone's attention in an instant.
When Lu Feng came to the stone platform and stood in the first position, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Many people recognized Lu Feng as the person who submitted the answer sheet first in the first round, and they were even more shocked.
What he doesn't know how to do is he loves to be pushy.
They clearly do it quickly and accurately!
Soon, the twenty people gathered together, and many formation masters who had not heard their names lamented over and over again and sat downcast in the audience.
Lu Feng felt some hostile glances. He looked back and found that several men lined up behind him were staring at him fiercely.
He seems to regard himself as his biggest competitor.
Lu Feng couldn't help but feel helpless, "It seems that the next competition should be more low-key!"
Don't expose your identity as a student of Linglong Valley.
However, judging from the formation attainments of those present, even if Lu Feng fully exposed his strength, probably no one would be able to tell his inheritance.
"The second stage begins now, which is to engrave the bond patterns required for the spirit bond formation."
The supervisor stood on the stage and announced the contents of the competition.
"All contestants will be assigned three pieces of jade and two carving knives. Within the specified time limit, each person must carve at least two pieces of jade. Those who have given priority to carve the seals matching their own strength can enter the next round.
"
Lu Feng smiled helplessly. The secular formation competition was too monotonous, just these tricks going back and forth.
Just like the star horn formation that he fought with Qu Kan in Qu Mansion, this spirit formation can also carve formation patterns corresponding to his strength.
It can be said that Lu Feng is very familiar with contract formations. The "cloud" contract formation that Jiang Ruoyun laid out for him is the simplest kind of contract formation.
However, due to the presence of Jiang Ruoyun's mysterious and terrifying aura, this contract formation instantly became very difficult to decipher.
The supervision arranged for the twenty people on the field to line up in an orderly manner, and sent people to distribute uniform carving knives and jade stones one by one.
After everything was distributed, the supervisor took out a gong and shouted to everyone.
"The sound of the bronze drum sounds, and the inscription begins."
