Chapter 186: First round bye, Xiao Xuan digs a hole
"Welcome everyone to the Ten Thousand Dao Festival. After the exciting competition in the secret trial in the past few days, we finally ushered in the second round of the most exciting high-level showdown today!"
"This battle will determine the final ranking of the top ten sects! We will also witness the peak showdown between the three major families, the nine major sects, and the Hongmeng Sect. Let's wait and see!"
"Now I announce that the high-level showdown at the Ten Thousand Dao Event has officially begun!"
Under Wei Jiu's instruction, a Jin Dan period referee announced loudly, with a loud voice that spread to every corner of the capital.
As soon as he finished speaking, a majestic and vast aura suddenly erupted in the originally extremely quiet arena.
The four-sided sky-gazing mirror also flashed with light, clearly displaying the names of all the sects in the high-level duel and scrolling at the same time.
In the high-level duel, each force sends three high-level people to form a team to participate in the competition. The rules are that one team versus one team competes, and the winner can advance to the next round.
Of course, the gap between the strengths of these senior leaders is not that big, and their tacit cooperation can even lead to extraordinary performance.
Therefore, this kind of team duel competition system is completely in line with the purpose of the Ten Thousand Dao Festival of "Exchange of Ten Thousand Daos, Different Paths to Immortality".
"coming!"
“Looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, it’s finally about to begin!”
"I have been looking forward to this battle for a long time, and I can finally see a real showdown between strong men!"
"I don't know what Hongmeng Sect is like when it appears in front of people as a dark horse. I hope Xiao Xuan and the other three can create miracles!"
"Xiao Xuan has always given me a mysterious and unpredictable feeling, and today the mystery is finally revealed!"
After the referee's voice fell, a thunderous exclamation suddenly erupted in the entire capital city, and all the spectators shouted excitedly.
One after another, their eyes were looking towards the sky-gazing mirror, full of expectation.
Soon, the words on the sky-gazing mirror stopped.
"A match between Taixu Sect and Taixuan Sect!"
"Second game, Lingjian Sect versus Tianjian Sect!"
"Three games, Qingxuanmen versus Wanfengmen!"
"Four games, Qin family versus Wang family!"
"Five games, Changsheng Sect versus Lin Family!"
"Six games, the Tyrant Sword Sect versus the Divine Sword Sect!"
"Hongmeng Sect, bye!"
When the last paragraph of text finally appeared, the sounds of exclamation suddenly resounded through the sky and throughout the entire country.
"Hongmeng Sect, actually got a bye?
!”
"If you get a bye, doesn't that mean that in the first round of the competition, the Hongmeng Sect will advance directly without having to appear!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! This luck is so incredible that it is enviable!"
"..."
Seeing the final result, countless people were shocked with their mouths wide open and their eyes as wide as copper bells, dumbfounded.
No one expected that in this round of high-level duel, Hongmeng Sect actually got a bye and advanced directly.
After the commotion, the tens of thousands of spectators present immediately turned their attention to the square and looked at the three young men and women quietly.
At this moment, Xiao Xuan was sitting on the chair with his old spirit still present, with a leisurely look on his face, as if everything was under control.
Zhu Xuan and Liu Meier on the side also had frosty faces and twitching eyes.
With such an attitude, they did not regard this bye as something that shocked and surprised them.
"The hearts of these three people from the Hongmeng Sect are too big!"
"Direct promotion means that even if they lose directly in the next round, Hongmeng Sect can at least squeeze into the seventh position among the ten major sects. It has jumped from a small sect with nothing to the seventh sect of Great Qin. They
Still so calm?
!”
"What a piece of bad luck! Now we have one less chance to teach the Hongmeng Sect a lesson!"
In the square, the leaders of the three major families and the seven major sects were discussing one after another, and their eyes full of jealousy and regret were all cast on Xiao Xuan and the others.
The three of them seemed not to care about this, and their faces remained calm and calm.
In Xiao Xuan's opinion, among the more than thirty so-called strong men present, except for the heads of Wanfeng Sect and Taixu Sect who were a bit interesting, none of them could fight.
So for him, whether he has a bye or not has no impact at all.
But if the bet fails, wouldn't it mean that tens of thousands of top-grade spiritual stones have been lost in vain?
"Everyone, our Hongmeng Sect is not very lucky. After this round of byes, I don't know how to determine the outcome of the bet between us."
Just when those aristocratic families and sects were sighing with emotion, Xiao Xuan suddenly spoke.
As soon as he said these words, the comments of the people around him suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Xuan.
"Hahaha! Is this kid a fool?
You finally got a bye, but you still didn’t forget about the gamble?
I was worried that I wouldn't have a chance to win back what I lost yesterday, but now it seems that I have saved a lot of effort!"
When the Qingxuan Sect Master heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The leaders of several other major families and sects also had mocking smiles on their faces.
"Then how do you think we should determine victory or defeat?"
The deputy sect leader of the Changsheng Sect glanced at Xiao Xuan lightly and asked jokingly.
"There are a total of thirteen sects participating in the high-level duel, and there are ten sects that have made a bet with our Hongmeng Sect. According to the competition system, even if our Hongmeng Sect does not have a bye, if we win every round, we will be the most talented.
If we compete with four of them, wouldn't it be very unfair to the other six!"
Xiao Xuan smiled lightly and said calmly.
Hearing this, everyone was slightly startled.
The head of the Qin family frowned, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "Then what does Head Xiao Xuan think can be done to be fair?"
"Well..."
Xiao Xuan narrowed his eyes, smiled faintly, and said: "How about we decide the winner and loser based on ranking?
"
"Um?
How can this be done?
!”
When the head of the Qin family heard this, he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, almost spitting blood on the spot.
"You are good at cheating, but I am not that easy to fool. I, the Ba Dao Faction, refuse this proposal!"
"I, the Qingxuan Sect, also refuse!"
"Taixuanzong refuses!"
"..."
The leaders of other aristocratic families and sects present also expressed their opposition and did not agree with Xiao Xuan's proposal.
If Xiao Xuan's method is used before the lineup is released, there is indeed a certain degree of fairness.
But now Hongmeng Sect has had a bye, which means that no matter how bad the Hongmeng Sect is, it has been promoted to the seventh place among the ten major sects.
At this time, Xiao Xuan proposed this proposal to determine the outcome based on rankings, which was equivalent to several players being destined to lose before the fight even started.
Isn't it clear that they are digging a hole for them to jump into?
Definitely not!
"Haha! Everyone, are you all so unsure of yourself?
This is fighting for seventh place or above, so it’s too timid to start timidly, right?”
Xiao Xuan shook his head and said with a faint smile: "If you don't dare, you can withdraw from this bet. Xiao didn't stop you with a knife!"
Hearing Xiao Xuan's provocation, the people from the three major families and the seven major sects were so angry that smoke was coming out of their nostrils.
But there was nothing he could do about it, and he could only stand there in frustration.
On the side, Zhu Xuan and Liu Mei'er couldn't help covering their mouths and snickering when they saw the flabby looks of these people.
"Junior Brother's mouth is really powerful. He caught these guys' weak points in one fell swoop and left them speechless... But what they don't know yet is that Junior Brother has just made his first shovel into this pit!"
Zhu Xuan looked at Xiao Xuan, a pair of beautiful red phoenix eyes flashed with brilliance.
