This is a competition for recruiting disciples in the Haotian Palace, and Xiao Muyang is the master of the Haotian Palace, so it is up to him to decide how the competition will be conducted.
Therefore, even though Xu Feng was dissatisfied, he could only endure it. He was not qualified to change Xiao Muyang's will.
"If you don't want to join Haotian Palace, stand up now. The next competition will have nothing to do with you, and you will not bear any price. Anyone who does not stand up is a disciple of Haotian Palace. If you give up the competition later, it will be regarded as
Betray the sect and bear the consequences at your own risk."
Xiao Muyang spoke loudly to the crowd, with a sense of majesty in his voice, which made many people startled and faintly shocked by these words.
They could tell that Xiao Muyang was not joking, but serious.
If you don't take the initiative to leave now, but are unwilling to join Haotian Palace later, then the meaning will be different, and you will openly become an enemy of Haotian Palace.
Haotian Palace will naturally not show mercy to such a person.
Xu Feng's eyes were cold. Although Xiao Muyang didn't specify who he was talking about, he could feel that it was a warning to him.
"I give up." Xu Feng said and walked towards the bottom of the fighting platform.
Xiao Muyang looked at Xu Feng's leaving back with no emotion in his eyes. No matter how outstanding Xu Feng's talent was, there would be nothing to regret if he didn't want to join the Haotian Palace.
"I give up too." Another voice came out, and everyone turned their eyes and realized that the person who spoke was He Chengzhou, who was also a talented person.
Xiao Muyang turned his eyes and looked at another figure on the eighth stage. It was Zhou Jing, who seemed to be waiting for Zhou Jing's decision.
Zhou Jing, Xu Feng, and He Chengzhou have similar backgrounds, and both come from first-rate forces. At this moment, Xu Feng and He Chengzhou have given up, and the possibility of him giving up is very high.
At this moment, Zhou Jing raised his head, looked at Xiao Muyang through the air, and asked via voice transmission: "I have a question. I wonder if Hall Master Xiao can answer it?"
"Tell me about it." Xiao Muyang responded, feeling a little curious as to what Zhou Jing would ask him.
"How far does Master Xiao plan to make Haotian Palace go in the future?" Zhou Jing asked.
Xiao Muyang's eyes narrowed when he heard this. Seeing that Zhou Jing's face was as calm as usual, it didn't look like he was joking, so he responded: "The number one force in Beihu County."
"The first force!"
Zhou Jing's heart trembled violently. He thought Xiao Muyang would answer the top power, but he didn't expect that the palace master of the heavenly realm was more confident than he imagined, and could even be said to be arrogant.
Even the current Qin family does not have the confidence to claim to be the number one power in Beihu County, and Xiao Muyang wants to make Haotian Palace surpass the Qin family. This is such a terrible ambition.
If these words spread, I am afraid it will cause ridicule from people all over the world.
However, after a brief shock, Zhou Jing gradually regained his composure. He had a different purpose from Xu Feng. He did not want to prove his own strength, but wanted to see Xiao Muyang's style.
But at this moment, he saw it.
It is admirable for a person in the realm of heaven to say such high-spirited words, whether they are arrogant or not.
At least he couldn't do it, and Xu Feng and He Chengzhou couldn't do it either.
The three top forces have invited him before, and he can become a core disciple at any time if he wants.
However, he knew in his heart that even if he became a core disciple, his life would not change much. After all, his talent was not the best and he was destined not to become a man of this era.
He was unwilling to give up and wanted to seek change, but the comeback of Haotian Palace gave him a faint glimmer of hope.
After joining the Haotian Palace, the future will be full of variables. Maybe he will be forgotten by everyone, and all the glory in the past will be in vain, but maybe he will grow into a generation of influential figures, standing at the top of Beihu County, and proud of the world.
He is willing to gamble for his own destiny.
Zhou Jing's expression became serious, he stared at Xiao Muyang's eyes, and slowly said: "In that case, I would like to accompany the master of Xiao to witness the growth of Haotian Palace."
A look of surprise flashed in Xiao Muyang's eyes, and then he replied with a smile: "You won't be disappointed."
Countless people stared at Zhou Jing, but he always stood there with no intention of standing up.
"Zhou Jing, he didn't give up!"
The crowd was trembling in their hearts, and their eyes were all filled with shock. Only two of the five geniuses gave up in the end.
Below the battle platform, Xu Feng and He Chengzhou looked at Zhou Ji in surprise. They thought Zhou Ji would give up like them, but they didn't expect that he would make a different choice, which was somewhat beyond their expectations.
"Everyone has the right to make his own choice, but in the end, he will have to pay the price for the wrong choice." Xu Feng suddenly said.
Although Xu Feng's voice was not loud, everyone present heard it clearly. Many people looked at Xu Feng with meaningful eyes, naturally understanding the meaning of what he just said.
In his opinion, Zhou Jing made a wrong choice and had to pay the price in the end.
If this sentence were said elsewhere, it would not matter. After all, everyone can express their own opinions. However, the master of the Haotian Palace and many elders are here, and he said such words without any concealment,
What does it mean?
Provoke them?
Xu Feng's dissatisfaction with Haotian Palace was relatively subtle before, but now his remarks can be said to be very obvious.
"This kid is too presumptuous!"
An elder of the Haotian Palace spoke indifferently, his face full of anger. He was a Tiangang figure, and he should not argue with a descendant of the Heavenly Palace.
Put it in your eyes.
Not only him, but also many elders showed anger and looked at Xu Feng with displeasure. If they were not concerned about their identity, they would have wanted to go down and slap Xu Feng to death.
Xiao Muyang lowered his head and looked at Xu Feng, only to see that Xu Feng looked at him without fear, as if he was not worried about what Haotian Palace would do to him.
He came here to participate in Haotian Palace's competition and did nothing. He just expressed his opinions. If Haotian Palace takes action against him, it will definitely make everyone in the world laugh. The Xu family behind him will not give up easily.
.
Haotian Temple had just come back not long ago, so he would never do such a stupid thing.
Xiao Muyang naturally knew where Xu Feng's confidence came from, but he never planned to do anything to Xu Feng. He was just a talented person with some talent and not qualified enough.
"Is anyone still giving up?" Xiao Muyang looked at the crowd below and asked again.
I saw some more figures walking out of the crowd of hundreds of people, making the same choice as Xu Feng.
Xiao Muyang's expression did not change, he looked at an elder beside him and said: "Elder Wu, choose someone from among the eliminated candidates to fill the position."
"As ordered." Elder Wu responded, shooting downwards and landing in front of the eliminated crowd.
After a while, Elder Wu selected some people from the eliminated crowd to fill the vacancies among the top 100 disciples.
"Congratulations, you have become the first batch of disciples recruited by Haotian Palace after its comeback. In the future, we will witness the glory of Haotian Palace with you." Xiao Muyang looked at the top 100 disciples and said loudly.
"See the Palace Master."
Loud voices came out one after another, shaking the space, and all the disciples bowed to Xiao Muyang at the same time. From this moment on, they are all disciples of Haotian Palace.
"Come here and give the disciple a token." Xiao Muyang said.
As soon as he finished speaking, an elder's figure was seen walking forward. He waved his palm and shot golden rays of light towards the figures below.
Everyone stretched out their hands to catch the light, and a golden token appeared in their palms, with two words engraved on it: Haotian.
"What you are holding in your hands is the outer disciple token. After entering Haotian Palace, if your status changes, you can use this token to exchange for a new token." The elder said, and everyone nodded, naturally.
Understand what to do.
Ren Xiao stood up, walked to the void in front of him, and said: "The next step is the battle of the top ten. Those who think they have the ability to compete for the top ten will go to the battle stage."
The original rules were not like this. Because Xiao Muyang temporarily decided to let those people give up their qualifications in advance, Ren Xiao changed the rules for the top ten battle.
The current rules are very simple. Whoever wants to compete for the top ten can go to the battle stage to compete.
After Ren Xiao's words fell, he saw figures flying onto the battlefield without hesitation. Leng Wuyun, Zhou Jing, and Hua Chen were among them, as well as several people in the late stages of the Heavenly Rank.
At this moment, a figure in white clothes was seen stepping into the void, and landed steadily on the battle platform. The figure was dressed in white clothes and was pure and pure. There was a bit of otherworldly temperament on his body. It was Chen Chi.
"Chen Chi really wants to compete for the top ten!" Mu Feng said with a rather excited expression. Xiao Muyang smiled and said: "With Chen Chi's strength, it is not difficult to enter the top ten. He can even compete for the top five."
"We'll see." Mu Feng grinned, having great expectations for Chen Chi.
In the end, a total of thirteen people stepped onto the fighting stage, which means that the top ten in this competition will be born from these thirteen people.
"Leng Wuyun, Zhou Jing, Hua Chen, the three of you have a bye, and the other ten will each choose their opponents for the competition." Ren Xiao looked at the thirteen people and said.
"Direct bye!"
The crowd below were all shocked when they heard this, but they soon felt relieved.
Zhou Jing and the others are all candidates for the first place. There is really no need to take action in advance. If they take action, it will affect the fairness of the competition. Maybe their opponents are in the top ten, but because they met them, they were kicked out of the top ten.
Ten, what a pity.
So Zhou Jing, Leng Wuyun and Hua Chen stood still, while the remaining ten people went to other battle stages in groups of two and competed at the same time.
Seeing the scene in front of them, the endless crowd could not help but beat their hearts a lot faster. Every battle that followed was a strong showdown. Each one has the strength of the top level and should not be underestimated.
But some people remained calm, such as Xu Feng and He Chengzhou.
In their eyes, the only opponents worthy of attention are Zhou Jing and the other ten, and they can be completely ignored!
[The author has something to say]
Guess how the plot will develop and who will be first?
I saw some readers questioning before, why are the powers of fire, ice, thunder and lightning, and the earth every time in the secret realm, and no other powers?
It's actually easy to figure it out.
Why do primary schools only test subjects other than Chinese and Mathematics? Why don’t they also test physics, chemistry, biology, history, geography, and even university courses?
Even if I teach him, he won't be able to understand it... I can only start from the most basic ones.
