In the main hall of Diyang Sect, Yang Renyi was tricked by Liu Hao once.
Moreover, it is an aboveboard calculation and a conspiracy.
Yang Renyi couldn't lose his temper at all.
Furthermore, the other party is just a small person.
For someone like him, who is the leader of the Diyang Sect, to specifically target such a small person, that is a very dishonorable thing.
He couldn't let go of his body to do such a thing.
Therefore, this time, he took this opportunity to teach Liu Hao a lesson.
In the draw of the top 16 matches, the Diyang Sect has certain conveniences and can make some manipulations during the division.
However, after the partition, he could no longer do anything.
At that point, it will be a very fair draw.
Therefore, he must make arrangements in advance.
Let Liu Hao be surrounded.
In his heart, Liu Hao is very powerful.
Maybe, he is indeed qualified to compete with his disciple, his grandson Yang Qinghu, for the first place.
However, he still felt that Liu Hao was still slightly weaker than Yang Qinghu.
After all, Yang Qinghu still controls many trump cards given by him.
However, he is also afraid of unexpected situations.
As he said himself, Liu Hao's actual combat ability is stronger than Yang Qinghu's.
In this kind of life-and-death fight, sometimes, a single thought can determine the outcome, life or death.
Therefore, while this plan is plotting against Liu Hao, it is also paving the way for his grandson.
…
Except for the people of the Diyang Sect, naturally no one else knows about the plan of Yang Renyi, the leader of the Diyang Sect.
Well, to be precise, except for the few elders of the Diyang Sect who were surrounding Yang Renyi, no one else knew.
Even those Diyang Sect disciples who are preparing to participate in the battle for resources under the arena don't know.
"That Liu Hao's strength is a bit stronger than expected!"
The first person to speak was Chen Tianqiang, the chief disciple of the Diyang Sect.
"Yes." Ximen Zhi nodded and acknowledged, "From the battle just now, Liu Hao still has some remaining strength and has not exerted his full strength. If he exerted his full strength, even I might not be his opponent.
.”
When Chen Tianqiang heard this, he frowned and said, "Are you not sure?"
"I'm not sure," Ximen Zhi said. "In terms of hard strength, I think I'm at least 50% sure if I'm fully prepared. If coupled with his actual combat experience and his almost no fear of death or injury,
His style of play, if I meet him, I will lose nine times out of ten."
"lose?"
Chen Tianqiang said in a deep voice, "Remember, if you really meet him, you must not lose. Even if you die, you have to fight."
"This person's fighting style is too fierce."
"His attacks are almost always killing moves."
"Never give the other party a chance to react and fight back."
"When facing such a person, you must not be afraid, just fight him tooth and nail."
"Otherwise, you will have already lost the battle at the beginning."
Hearing this, Ximen Zhi was stunned.
However, he quickly nodded, "I understand."
Then he asked, "Senior Brother Chen, how confident are you?"
Chen Tianqiang smiled faintly and said, "It may be a little difficult to win against him, but it doesn't mean that I am not sure."
He added, "At least, based on the strength he has shown so far, I think I can still easily win against him."
"That's good."
Ximen Zhi nodded, "You are sure of winning against him, and then Junior Brother Yang should be sure too. Then there is still only one person we need to pay attention to."
Chen Tianqiang shook his head and said, "It's meaningless to think about this now. When the time comes, they will be divided into different areas. It remains to be seen whether we can meet each other."
He added, "Besides, the sect leader will definitely consider it."
…
A quarter of an hour later.
This round of battle is finally over.
After this battle is over.
The final eight challengers have come out.
"Give you a quarter of an hour to rest."
At this time, in the center of the arena, the judge's voice came, "In half an hour, the ranking battle will officially begin."
…
"The ranking battle is about to begin."
On the Fire Spirit Sect side.
Wang Zhongyun came to Liu Hao's side and asked, "You have already passed the information on the eight seed players before. Who do you think you will be more confident about facing?"
"you?"
Liu Hao didn't think much and turned to Wang Zhongyun.
"..."
Wang Zhongyun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard Liu Hao's answer.
Then, he said, "We are disciples of the same sect. In the first round of the ranking match, there is a rule that disciples of the same sect will not encounter each other."
Originally, the Fire Spirit Sect did not have a quota for seed players.
However, before the war started, no one knew what was going on. Another sect with a seed player suddenly said that it would give up its seed player spot to Wang Zhongyun.
There was no objection from other parties.
Therefore, Wang Zhongyun eventually became one of the seed players.
"Hey, that's not right!"
Suddenly, Wang Zhongyun frowned at Liu Hao and asked, "In your eyes, am I so weak? Not even qualified to become a seed player?"
"No."
Liu Hao shook his head and said, "It's just that if I meet you, I think you will surrender and let me enter the next round."
"..."
Hearing this, Wang Zhongyun smiled bitterly and said, "So, you have such a plan!"
Then he asked, "What if you exclude me now? Who do you think you are more sure of meeting?"
"It's all the same." Liu Hao replied, "No matter who I meet, I have no excuse for losing, so whether I am sure or not, I have to win. Anyway, every battle is regarded as the last battle, and then,
Just try your best."
Hearing this, Wang Zhongyun was stunned again.
He knew Liu Hao was a ruthless person.
But I didn't expect Liu Hao to be so cruel.
He actually came with the idea of desperate efforts.
…
A quarter of an hour is not a long time.
It passed quickly.
At this time, a middle-aged man walked out from the trial stage in the center of the arena.
"Okay, everyone, please pay attention, the ranking battle is about to begin."
The middle-aged man said, "Before the battle begins, I need to tell you a few things."
"First of all, the battle for resources this time is of great importance, so the people from all your forces will definitely try their best."
"However, every one of you disciples who came to participate in this battle for resources is a genius that the sect has spent a lot of money to cultivate."
"So, this time, I want to remind everyone that if you know you are losing, you must admit defeat in advance."
"You have to admit defeat when something is really going to happen. Then, I'm sorry, we may not be able to save you."
"Secondly, the gravity fields of each arena are different."
"Furthermore, the later battles may have different intensity of battle, causing fluctuations in the gravity fields of different arenas."
"So, you also need to pay attention to yourself."
"Don't wait until then. When the battle reaches a critical point, the gravity suddenly doubles and you don't have time to react."
"Finally, this time the ranking of the resource competition will follow the old rules, and the battle will be divided into two half areas."
"Then, the challenger will draw the opponent for the challenge."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a box suddenly appeared next to him, "Now, I will draw the top half of the contestants first."
"No. 1 in the upper half, Longyang Sect Hermione!"
"Second, Gu Xuanzong, Zhong Qiyue."
"Third place is Xingsha Sect Wei Tianqi."
"The fourth place is Xingsha Sect Wu Tianshu."
"The first place in the lower half is Diyang Sect Chen Tianqiang."
"The second place is Ximen Zhi of Diyang Sect."
"The third place is King Zhongyun of the Fire Spirit Sect."
"The fourth place is Wang Gang of Ghost Spirit Sect."
As the middle-aged man finished speaking, the characters in the upper and lower sections were selected.
The next step is for the challenger to draw his opponent.
The way of drawing is that the person who ends the battle earlier has the priority to draw.
Therefore, the first person to draw lots was naturally Liu Hao.
When Liu Hao came to the ring, the middle-aged man put the box in front of Liu Hao.
"This is the box in the upper half." The middle-aged man said, "Draw your opponent."
Liu Hao didn't waste any time. He reached into the box and pulled out his opponent.
However, when Liu Hao saw the name on the note, he was stunned.
A slightly condensed look appeared on his face.
"In the first half of the area, the first battle will be between Longyang Sect Hermione and Fire Spirit Sect Liu Hao."
At this time, the middle-aged man reported the results, and then said, "Next, please invite Jiang Chenglong to come up and draw your opponent."
Jiang Chenglong was the person with the second fastest finishing time.
So, the second one draws the opponent.
However, when it was Jiang Chenglong's turn, he was in the lower half.
This is also one of the rules.
"In the lower half, the first battle will be between Xingsha Zong Jiang Chenglong and Diyang Zong Ximen Zhi."
The middle-aged man reported again, "A third person is invited to come on stage to draw his opponent..."
…
The drawing process ended quickly.
Although it is said that Diyang Sect cannot directly decide who the two sides of the battle are.
However, through reasonable application of rules, Diyang Sect still successfully obtained the results it wanted.
Since Yang Qinghu deliberately delayed the end of his battle to the fourth position, he was placed in the lower half with Jiang Chenglong as he wished.
"People in the upper half of the area go to the arena on the left, and people in the lower half of the area go to the arena on the right."
The middle-aged man on the stage immediately said, "Follow the number and find your own fighting stage."
As his words fell, people from all sides also headed towards their own arena.
…
On the Longyang Sect side.
When Hermione knew that her opponent was Liu Haozhi, she was stunned for a moment.
However, then, she stood up very calmly.
Heading towards the arena.
"Sister, come on!"
Behind, among the disciples of Longyang Sect, someone suddenly shouted.
Hermione didn't look back or pay attention.
He just walked towards the arena on his own.
…
Outside the arena.
Beyond the mountains.
Xingsha Sect.
When the sect leader heard the results of the lottery, his face became solemn.
There was a deep gloominess in his eyes.
"This Yang Renyi is indeed a good calculator!"
He murmured and said gloomily, "The upper half of the area is for us to have two heavyweight opponents. Even if our people succeed in breaking through, they will suffer heavy losses."
"As for the lower half of the area, our Diyang Sect is three to one."
"He would rather give up his second position than suppress our Diyang Sect!"
Hearing what Zhong said, the faces of the elders around him became sad.
"Sect Master, it shouldn't be as serious as you think, right?"
"In this upper half, Zhong Qiyue will definitely not be able to stir up any big trouble. As for Liu Hao, with the strength of Wei Tianqi and Wu Tianshu, it shouldn't be difficult to win, right? In this case,
In the lower half, as long as Jiang Chenglong can cause enough heavy losses to the Diyang Sect, we still have a chance!"
"Yes, I also think our chances should be very good."
"..."
Listening to the elders' words, Wen Zhong snorted coldly.
He said in a deep voice, "Liu Hao dares to make a bet with Gu Xingyuan to enter the top five. Do you really think he will be weak?"
"Wei Tianqi and Wu Tianshu don't say whether they can win or not. Even if they do win, it will definitely be a miserable victory."
"Then Zhong Qiyue is also not a fuel-efficient lamp."
"The chief disciple of the Ancient Xuan Sect, this is the trump card that the Ancient Xuan Sect has cultivated over the years."
"In the past two hundred years, he never appeared in the battle for resources. He was just going through training."
"I brought him here specially this time. Do you really think he will be weak?"
"You guys stay safe. Even if the two people in the upper half of our area are lucky enough to escape, they will definitely be seriously injured."
"I definitely no longer have the ability to compete for first place."
"As for the lower half..."
Saying that, Wen Zhong sighed, "Now, I can only say that we are resigned to fate."
Originally, under normal circumstances, people from the Diyang Sect would be separated.
At least, that's what everyone thinks.
In previous resource competitions, the people of the Diyang Sect were separated. There has never been a situation like today where they were directly assigned to the same area.
In this situation, it is clear that they are targeting Jiang Chenglong!
Therefore, there is nothing we can do about Wen Zhong now.
We can only wait for the final result.
…
"Okay, are you all ready?"
At this time, on the stage, the middle-aged man asked.
"Ready!"
Everyone on each stage nodded in agreement.
"I declare a battle..."
The middle-aged man immediately waved his hand and said, "Start!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The battle for ranking has finally begun.
…
While the battles in other arenas had begun, the two people in the upper half of the area, on the first arena, were still standing there, not moving.
"Sister, you are no match for me!"
Liu Hao said, "It's better to admit defeat!"
Hermione asked, "Are you so sure?"
"Yes." Liu Hao nodded.
"Then what if I don't admit defeat?"
Hermione asked, "Are you going to kill me?"
"..."
Liu Hao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No."
"good!"
Hermione nodded, then raised her hand, "I give up!"
