When the duel began, Lin Yun took out a gold coin and said that this was his weapon.
Everyone thought that Lin Yun was joking. But they never expected that Lin Yun really used this gold coin as a weapon to defeat Nangong Yi.
Because they really couldn't imagine that a small gold coin could exert such a powerful lethality, which completely subverted their ideas.
After Lin Yun was dismissed, several imperial doctors hurriedly boarded the martial arts platform to treat Nangong Yi.
For a time, the entire scene was hotly discussing Lin Yun's strength.
They originally thought that the reason why Lin Yun was able to kill the demon was because the Third Marquis fought the demon first and both sides suffered losses. He just took advantage of it, relying not on strength but on luck.
It wasn't until today's battle that they had a new understanding of Lin Yun's strength.
After Lin Yun appeared, almost all the disciples from the prefecture and county martial arts families had already appeared. The next ones to appear were almost all geniuses from the Wangcheng family.
When the sun sets in the west, the promotion competition also comes to an end.
A total of forty people successfully entered the semi-finals.
Except for the unlucky Nangong Yi who faced off against Lin Yun, the other geniuses from the three major families in the kingdom all won and entered the semi-finals.
Among the disciples of the Prefecture and County Martial Houses, except for Lin Yun and Yu Ruoxi, no one has entered the semi-finals.
However, this has already broken the previous record.
In the previous martial arts competitions, no disciples from any state or county martial arts government could reach the semi-finals.
But in this session, two martial arts disciples from two prefectures and counties entered the semi-finals. This is definitely the most proud session among the eight prefectures and counties.
Ren Tan Qian held a banquet in the restaurant that night to reward Lin Yun and Yun Ruoxi.
He originally thought that only Lin Yun could reach the semi-finals. However, he did not expect that even Yun Ruoxi could successfully reach the semi-finals.
All of this is Lin Yun's credit. If it weren't for the sword skills that Lin Yun taught Yun Ruoxi, Yun Ruoxi would not be able to defeat Duan Yu and would have to stop at the promotion competition.
…
Early next morning.
Wu'anmen Square is still crowded and crowded.
The semi-finals of the Wangcheng Martial Arts Conference will be staged here today.
Different from the promotion round, the rules of the semi-finals are no longer one-on-one mode, but a multi-player melee mode.
There are a total of forty disciples who have passed the promotion competition.
These forty people will be divided into eight groups by drawing lots, with each group having a total of five people.
Five people took the stage at the same time to have a melee and decide a winner.
From eight groups, eight winners will be born.
These eight winners will directly advance to the finals, where they will compete with the three legendary monsters of the kingdom to determine their respective rankings.
After a quarter of an hour of drawing lots, the final allocation results finally came out.
The elder came to Wu'anmen and announced the list of players for the first group in public.
The first group of disciples who appeared were all geniuses with extraordinary strength, and their realms were all above the late eighth-level warriors.
Two of them are peak eighth-level warriors, and two are first-time ninth-level warriors.
And the last man wearing black clothes and a black mask has reached the peak of the ninth level warrior, and is only half a step away from the realm of a martial artist!
As soon as the masked man came on stage, the other four people involuntarily moved closer to each other, forming a united front to fight against the masked man.
Although the game is a free-for-all, the five people fight on their own. But if one of them has overwhelming strength, the others don't mind uniting to eliminate the strong enemy before a civil war breaks out.
Although the four people on the stage reached a consensus to join forces, the onlookers in the audience were still not optimistic about these four people.
"It seems that the result is already obvious. There is no suspense in this group. The winner is definitely Shangguan Yehua."
"Even if the four of them join forces, they still can't defeat Shangguan Yehua."
"That's natural. After all, Shangguan Yehua is one of the six geniuses in the royal city."
Hearing everyone's discussion, Yuan Xiaofeng couldn't help but curiously asked: "Who are the six geniuses in Wangcheng? Are they very powerful?"
He had heard of the famous Three Great Monsters of the Royal City for a long time. But he had never heard of the Six Great Geniuses of the Royal City.
A noble prince from Wangcheng rolled his eyes at Yuan Xiaofeng, and then said to him with contempt, "Which state or county are you from? Even the six geniuses of Wangcheng don't know, but you know the three monsters of Wangcheng, right?"
"Of course I know that." Yuan Xiaofeng nodded.
The noble prince continued to say to Yuan Xiaofeng: "The three great evildoers in the royal city have all awakened heaven-level martial spirits, so they are called evildoers."
"Below the three great demons of the Royal City, there are six geniuses who have awakened earth-level martial arts. They are collectively called the Six Great Geniuses of the Royal City, and they are second only to the three great evildoers of the Royal City."
Having said this, the noble prince pointed to the martial arts stage: "The man wearing a black mask on the stage is Shangguan Yehua, one of the six geniuses in the royal city."
As soon as the noble master finished speaking, the duel on the stage had already begun.
The four of them mobilized their vitality at the same time, condensed their martial spirits behind them, and simultaneously surrounded and suppressed Shangguan Yehua.
Just as they were encircling and suppressing them, a black cube suddenly formed behind Shangguan Yehua.
The surface of this black cube blooms with blue light. It is Shangguan Yehua's martial spirit - the black coffin.
The structure of the black coffin is very unstable. It is obviously not solid, but made of energy. It is terrifyingly black, like a bottomless black hole, as if even light falling into it cannot escape.
After the black coffin appeared, it expanded at an extremely fast speed, forming a huge black cube. In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire martial arts platform, completely hiding the people on the martial arts platform.
The spectators in the audience could not see what was happening in the black cube, and could not even hear a sound.
In just a few breaths, the black cube shrank back to its original shape.
However, the Wutai had become stained with blood, and the four people fell in a pool of blood, with wounds all over their bodies that were deep enough to show the bones.
Only Shangguan Yehua was still standing unscathed, and even his clothes were not damaged at all.
Seeing this shocking scene, Yuan Xiaofeng and Hu Jin couldn't help but take a breath.
They simply couldn't imagine what terrible thing happened in that black cube?
In just a few breaths, several powerful geniuses were transformed into this!
Shangguan Yehua's power is really terrifying!
"The winner of the first group is Shangguan Yehua."
After the invigilator announced the result of the melee, Shangguan Yehua walked down the stage without saying a word.
Immediately afterwards, the melee in the second group also began.
In the second group, it was Yun Ruoxi's turn to appear. Unfortunately, one of Yun Ruoxi's opponents also had one of the Six Greatest Geniuses in the Royal City. This opponent was Nangong Qian, the core disciple of the Nangong Family.
