Ning Xiaoyao originally wanted to take the opportunity to thank Shen Lang. After all, Shen Lang killed the Yellow Lion King for him last time and also found his father.
But seeing that Shen Lang seemed to be a little disgusted with her, Ning Xiaoyao's mood suddenly deteriorated a lot. She was very angry and naturally she was not willing to lower her status to please Shen Lang, so she simply did not talk to Shen Lang again.
Although Ning Xiaoyao is as cold as ice on the surface, she is quite curious about Shen Lang in her heart. She feels that this man is very mysterious and unpredictable.
Mysterious is Ning Xiaoyao's evaluation of Shen Lang.
She wanted to see what Shen Lang could do in the Qianqiu Martial Arts Competition.
Neither of them spoke anymore, and Shen Lang glanced around.
There are almost more than 3,000 disciples of the Ancient Artifact Sect participating in the Qianqiu Martial Arts Competition, second only to the Zhaoyang Sect and corresponding to the ranking of the seven major immortal sects.
The seven major immortal sects in Qianqiu Peak are headed by Zhaoyang Sect, and the others in order from strong to weak are: Ancient Artifact Sect, Tianzhi Sect, Divine Weapon Temple, Voodoo Sect, Blood Wood Palace, and Yu Beast Mountain.
There are no hard conditions for disciples of the Seven Immortal Sects to sign up to participate in the Qianqiu Martial Arts Competition. They only need to have a bone age of less than one million years old. After all, the hunting trial only allows monks with a bone age of less than one million years old to participate.
Shen Lang's bone age is more than 100,000 years old, and he is considered very young among many half-immortal monks.
There is no monk among the seven immortal sects who can break through to the realm of human immortality before one million years old, so the opponent Shen Lang encountered this time was only at the peak level of a half-immortal.
As long as you go all out, there is not much pressure to compete for the top twenty.
Not long after, the Qianqiu martial arts competition officially began.
The person who presided over the Qianqiu Martial Arts Competition was an elite disciple from the Seven Sacred Palaces. His name was Luo Cheng, and his cultivation was in the early stage of human immortality.
Except for the Seven Saints Palace, which has a fixed quota to participate in the hunting trial, the other monks participating in the hunting trial are all selected from various immortal sects in Meishan Qianfeng. The Seven Saints Palace will send corresponding monks to supervise and preside over.
"Today, young heroes from the seven great sects of Qianqiu Peak gathered here for a selection battle. The twenty monks who were finally selected have the qualifications to participate in the hunting trial. The Seven Saints Palace attaches great importance to the young heroes who participate in the hunting trial.
I hope that all the disciples of the Seven Immortal Sects will use all their strength to fight!"
In the center of the square, Luo Cheng made some brief speeches, which shocked everyone.
"good!"
The scene was filled with thunderous sounds, and the disciples of the seven immortal sects responded one after another.
Luo Cheng suppressed his hand and said seriously: "The rules of the battle are very simple. It adopts a knockout system. If one side surrenders or is physically defeated, the other side will be considered the winner. If there is an accident in the arena battle and one side is killed, the other side does not need to
Take responsibility. Okay, no more nonsense, now let’s start distributing battle number plates.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Cheng waved his sleeves.
The sky full of jade tokens flew out from his sleeves and scattered in all directions of the stand. All the disciples of the Seven Immortal Sects stretched out their hands to catch the jade tokens.
Shen Lang also casually grabbed a jade plaque with the number 1087 written on it. The number represented his battle number, and his opponent was the number 1088.
"The Qianqiu Martial Arts Competition officially begins!"
Luo Cheng shouted loudly, and the much-anticipated Qianqiu Martial Arts Competition finally began.
Qianqiu Huiwu is also a one-on-one duel, and the process is not complicated. The monks go on stage to fight in order according to the number cards.
Because it is a knockout competition, the Qi sect disciples participating in the martial arts competition will have to go through almost ten or more rounds of duels before they can decide on the last twenty monks who have obtained the hunting trial quota.
The first round took the longest, at least for more than half a month, because there were more than 13,000 people participating in the martial arts competition.
Shen Lang's serial number is more than a thousand digits, and his appearance order is relatively high.
It is worth mentioning that the two sides in the duel were arranged in random order according to the numbers on the jade cards. There is no distinction between sects. The opponent of the monk of the ancient weapons sect may also be a monk of his own sect.
Not long after, the first arena battle began.
Two monks numbered one and two came on stage. These two monks came from the Bloodwood Palace and the Divine Weapon Temple respectively. Both of them happened to be in the middle stage of semi-immortal cultivation, and they looked quite young.
"start!"
Luo Cheng gave the order.
The two monks began to fight. Since the two monks were of equal cultivation, they refused to accept the other. They fought for a full ten minutes before the winner was decided.
The monk in the Divine Weapon Temple summoned a huge golden spear and penetrated the body of the monk in the Bloodwood Palace, causing his body to collapse and winning the victory.
However, the monk from Bloodwood Palace did not die. He relied on the ability of the Three Flowers to Gather to Restore his physical body.
Generally speaking, in a fight between half-immortals and half-immortals, it is difficult to truly kill each other.
Because all monks who have cultivated the immortal body have mastered the ability of three flowers gathering at the top, even if the physical body is destroyed by ordinary immortal magic, it can be restored through the gathering of three flowers at the top.
Unless you are a half-immortal who has mastered the Earth Immortal Technique, it will be difficult for a half-immortal to kill a half-immortal.
Half-immortals like Shen Lang are definitely an outlier among half-immortals.
In addition to earthly immortal arts, ordinary half-immortals still have methods that can kill half-immortals, such as some unique immortal arts and some cursed artifacts, which may cause irreparable damage to the physical body of a half-immortal.
Shen Lang watched more than a dozen shows in a row and was very interested.
First of all, the strength of the disciples of the seven great immortal sects is much higher than that of the casual cultivators such as the Panshi Village and the Kuangshi Village, so they are not worthless.
The seven immortal sects are good at different magical powers. The monks of the Zhaoyang Sect are good at metal magical powers and Yang attribute spells, the monks of the Ancient Artifact Sect are good at sword techniques and wind and thunder magic powers, the monks of the Heavenly Corpse Sect are good at controlling blood corpses, and the Divine Weapon Temple is good at controlling blood corpses.
In the art of controlling weapons, Voodoo Cult is good at poison spells, Blood Wood Palace is good at transformation techniques and wood magical powers, and Beast Control Mountain is good at controlling beast-shaped puppets and formations.
In short, the variety of magical powers is eye-opening.
Occasionally, one or two monks perform amazingly, making the audience inside and outside the venue burst into applause and cheers.
The first monk to appear in the Ancient Artifact Sect happened to be Shen Lang's acquaintance, Xia Shan'er.
"Xia Shan'er, the 31st Ancient Artifact Sect, versus Zheng Long, the 32nd Royal Beast Mountain!" Luo Cheng shouted in the center of the square arena.
At the ancient artifacts gate stand, Xia Shaner stood up a little nervously.
"Come on, Junior Sister Xia!"
"Junior Sister, let the guys from Yushou Mountain see how powerful our Ancient Artifact Sect is!"
The monks from the Ancient Artifact Sect cheered for Xia Shan'er one after another, and the scene was lively.
"Junior sister Shan'er, this is your first battle, don't let me down, senior brother." Lu Peng smiled at Xia Shan'er.
"Okay, senior brother."
Xia Shan'er tugged on the hem of her skirt, her pretty face flushed, and her mood became more and more nervous.
She walked through the stands and happened to come to Shen Lang and Ning Xiaoyao.
"Senior sister, come on." Shen Lang smiled lightly and signaled.
Xia Shan'er only nodded slightly, with a hint of apology in her eyes.
"Silly girl, don't be nervous, that guy won't be your opponent, just perform normally."
Ning Xiaoyao stood up and touched Xia Shan'er's head, encouraging her.
"Um!"
Xia Shan'er responded and then flew onto the ring.
