"In the upper half of the area, on the third stage, Hermione of the Longyang Sect admits defeat, and Liu Haosheng of the Fire Spirit Sect!"
As the words of the judge fell in the center of the arena, the judge's voice fell.
The fastest competition in the first round of the top 16 qualifying competition was released.
Due to Hermione's surrender, Liu Hao won the game in less than three breaths.
And as the judge's words fell, the surrounding area fell into silence once again.
However, this time, everyone was just stunned for a moment, and then turned their attention to other competitions.
For them, Liu Hao's instant victory was nothing new.
Hermione would admit defeat, which is reasonable for many people.
Naturally, there is nothing to make a fuss about.
Moreover, the other seven battles are all classics, so they naturally need to be played well.
…
at the same time.
Gu Xingyuan, the third elder of the Fire Spirit Sect who was far away in the first domain of the human race and in the main domain, also received a message.
"Liu Hao has entered the quarterfinals!"
"Besides, he wasn't injured at all. Hermione just admitted defeat."
"So, he has saved a lot of strength for the next battle."
When he received this news, Gu Xingyuan's expression was also very difficult.
Fourth Elder Yang Hai and Seventh Elder Yang Jiang are still imprisoned in the Fire Domain at this time.
There is no way to deliver the message.
However, as the third elder of the Huo Ling Sect and the most well-connected person in the Huo Ling Sect, it is still very easy for him to know the situation of the battle for resources.
However, what he never expected was that Liu Hao would win so easily in four consecutive battles.
However, among these four battles, three were contributed by the Longyang Sect.
What puzzled him very much was that in two of the battles, Liu Hao killed two people from the Longyang Sect.
Then no matter how good her relationship with Liu Hao is, Hermione will never admit defeat at this time!
To be honest, if he hadn't been unable to escape at this moment, he would have asked He Tianlei, the leader of Longyang Sect, in person what this meant.
However, at this time, he couldn't leave here.
Naturally, he had no way to deal with this problem.
What he should be most concerned about now is that he must not let Liu Hao win the next battle.
Because, once Liu Hao wins, something will happen to both Yang Hai and Yang Jiang.
And he will also completely eliminate the opportunity to become the leader of the Fire Spirit Sect.
Even after returning to the Huo Ling Sect, his status may be reduced.
This was something he couldn't bear.
So, after hesitating for a moment, he took out a spar.
This is a sound transmission crystal.
Weng!
With the input of Yuanli, the light on the sound transmission crystal flickered.
After about a moment, the sound crystal stone opened.
A voice came from the other side, "Elder Gu, I wonder why you are looking for me at this time?"
"Master Wen, you must have an idea of what I am looking for you for."
Gu Xingyuan said in a deep voice, "Now, the people with the strongest fighting power in the upper half of the area are your Xing Sha Sect and Gu Xuan Sect."
"Liu Hao has already won this battle."
"The people Liu Hao needs to meet in the next match should be people from your Xingsha Sect and Gu Xuan Sect."
"I have only one request. No matter what, Liu Hao must not be allowed to move forward."
"We must suppress Liu Hao at all costs."
The other end of the sound crystal was none other than Wen Zhong, the leader of the Xingsha Sect.
After hearing what Gu Xingyuan said, Wen Zhong also frowned.
He said in a deep voice, "Elder Gu, don't you think this is a joke?"
"I'm not kidding you!"
Gu Xingyuan said solemnly, "As long as your people can stop Liu Hao, then no matter what problem the opponent has, I will try my best to help him recover."
"In addition, I will train another person of equal strength for your Xingsha Sect."
"Moreover, I will also compensate your Xingsha Sect with some high-quality elixirs."
"These high-quality elixirs will not only cultivate two people of the same level, but at least ensure that your Xingsha Sect has one more disciple of the Yuanhuang level. That won't be a problem."
"And it will only take a thousand years at most."
Hearing this, Wen Zhong's face changed slightly.
There was even a touch of excitement in his eyes.
"Does Elder Gu really mean what he said?"
As long as they win this battle.
That would be equivalent to the Huo Ling Sect cultivating a figure at the peak level of the Yuan Emperor for free.
Moreover, no matter how much the opponent is hurt, they will do their best to recover.
What kind of sect is the Huo Ling Sect?
Who is Gu Xingyuan?
That is the best alchemy master in the third realm.
With his words, then Wen Zhong hardly needs to consider the issue of injury.
And, within a thousand years, if we can train another person in the early Yuanhuang realm and another person in the peak Yuanhuang realm, it will be even more of a windfall.
You know, it took them nearly five thousand years and a lot of resources to train these three genius disciples.
Therefore, Gu Xingyuan's promise really moved his heart.
"When have I, Gu Xingyuan, ever deceived anyone?"
Gu Xingyuan said, "What I say will definitely be true!"
"good!"
Wen Zhong immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry, as long as our people encounter him, we will definitely try our best until the last minute to help you stop him."
"I will contact you again after success!"
Gu Xingyuan said immediately, "I hope to receive good news from you."
After saying that, Gu Xingyuan cut off contact with Wen Zhong.
After the connection was disconnected, Gu Xingyuan immediately began to contact another person.
…
The third domain.
Territory City.
Outside the realm and battlefield.
On the territory of Xingsha Sect.
When Wen Zhong came back again, the excitement on his face was still very strong.
"Sect Master, does your expression suggest any good news?"
An elder asked.
"Well, there is indeed good news!"
Wen Zhong nodded and replied, "However, how good this news is depends on the results of the next round of battle."
"..."
Everyone immediately looked at Wenzhong in confusion.
Wen Zhong smiled slightly and did not hide anything, but directly stated the results of the exchange just now.
When everyone heard this, they immediately became excited.
"Sect Master, this is great news!"
"Yes, as long as Wei Tianqi draws Liu Hao and Gu Xingyuan's promise, we will get it directly!"
"I'm looking forward to the next round of battle more and more now."
"..."
Hearing the slightly excited words of the elders, Wen Zhong also smiled.
In any case, this news is definitely good news for their Xingsha Sect.
As for how good it is, we will know after the next round of draws.
…
the other side.
Ancient Xuanzong.
Sect leader Zhong Hanxuan was still focused on the battle on the field.
This time, his son Zhong Qiyue's opponent was not that strong.
At this point, it's almost coming to an end.
But just at this moment, Meng Hu, the great elder of the Ancient Xuan Sect, suddenly left in a hurry.
For the great elder Meng Hu, Zhong Hanxuan had no way to deal with him.
In terms of status, his sect leader is slightly worse than the other party.
Naturally, he has nothing to do if the other party wants to leave or stay.
Therefore, he just frowned slightly and ignored it.
After about a hundred breaths, the battle with his son Zhong Qiyue ended.
There was no accident for Zhong Qiyue, he easily won the first round of the top 16 and entered the top eight.
And at this time, the great elder Meng Hu came back.
After he came back, he took a look at the sect leader Zhong Qiyue.
He said in a deep voice, "Sect Master, please contact the people below immediately and ask them to inform Zhong Qiyue. If Zhong Qiyue's opponent is Liu Hao, then no matter how high the price, he must win."
Hearing this, Zhong Hanxuan frowned.
He said in a deep voice, "No matter what the price is?"
"Elder Gu Xingyuan has already said that no matter what kind of injury Zhong Qiyue suffers, he will take care of it."
Meng Hu said, "With Elder Gu's words, what else does the sect leader have to fear?"
Hearing this, Zhong Hanxuan sneered and said, "I have nothing to be afraid of. The person I am fighting is not me."
Then he said, "Can't you just go and give orders to the people below?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Hu frowned, his face darkened, and he asked, "Does the sect master mean that he doesn't want to take care of it anymore?"
Zhong Hanxuan asked, "I don't care, so what?"
"If you don't care about it, Sect Leader, then I won't care about matters within the Guxuan Sect from now on."
Meng Hu said, "Elder Gu Xingyuan has such a deep friendship with our Gu Xuan Sect because of my relationship."
"Over the years, among the talented disciples trained by our Gu Xuan Sect, which one has not received the favor of Elder Gu Xingyuan?"
"Now, you don't agree to such a small request of his."
"That would break my trust."
"In this case, does the sect master think it is necessary for me to do my best against Gu Xuanzong again?"
As soon as Meng Hu said these words, the elders around him nodded and agreed.
"Yes, Sect Master, we cannot let the Great Elder and Elder Gu Xingyuan feel chilled!"
"We all see how much the Great Elder has paid for the sect over the years. We all know how many elixirs Elder Gu Xingyuan has made for us. If, on this condition, I can't even agree to Elder Gu Xingyuan's
, then, others will refer to us as Gu Xuanzong in the future?"
"Sect Master, I also agree with the Great Elder's statement."
"If the sect master firmly opposes it, then my attitude is the same as that of the great elder."
"Yes, me too."
"Sect Master, you can't let everyone feel cold!"
"..."
Immediately, the elders spoke one after another and began to press for Zhong Hanxuan.
After hearing what everyone said, Zhong Hanxuan's face instantly darkened.
There was a deep coldness in his eyes.
The so-called sacrifice in Meng Hu's words is nothing more than for himself.
The elixirs that Gu Xingyuan took out were basically given to their own disciples.
His son Zhong Qiyue, of course, also asked for elixirs from the Huoling Sect.
However, those are all equivalent exchanges.
There is no friendship at all.
But now, in the mouths of these elders, it has become a favor.
However, the other elders also helped the elder, which made Zhong Hanxuan lose his temper at all.
However, there was nothing he could do.
If these elders really no longer cooperate with him, he, the leader of the Ancient Xuan Sect, will have no meaning in his existence.
So, he gritted his teeth and finally contacted the people below.
Due to the existence of rules, he could not contact Zhong Qiyue directly.
The only way to contact Zhong Qiyue is through the judge.
The judge was arranged by Zhong Hanxuan, and he was one of his own.
Therefore, only his words have an effect.
Meng Hu's words have no effect on the people below.
…
When Zhong Qiyue returned to the position of Ancient Xuanzong with victory.
A piece of information was passed on.
After receiving this information, Zhong Qiyue frowned.
In his eyes, there was even a slight glimmer of concentration.
However, he did not refute, he just replied, "I understand."
…
"The top 16 ranking battle, the first round is over!"
At this time, a voice came from the trial platform, "Next, you will have half an hour to rest."
"In half an hour, the second round of competition will take place."
"In addition, all parties are asked to step back ten meters, wait where they are, and do not move."
"We are going to integrate the arena."
As soon as these words came out, people from all sides immediately retreated and began to wait in place.
…
The so-called arena integration is to integrate sixteen arenas into four arenas.
Due to the next round of the quarterfinals, the intensity of the battle will increase.
Therefore, the scope of the arena will increase.
Naturally, some arenas need to be merged.
Moreover, the quarterfinals only require four arenas, so they have to integrate all the extra venues.
…
On the Fire Spirit Sect side.
"Are you OK?"
Liu Hao glanced at Wang Zhongyun, who was seriously injured, frowned and asked, "Do you want me to help you treat him?"
Wang Zhongyun smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "No need!"
"My goal is to enter the top eight. Now that the goal has been achieved, there are no other requirements."
"and……"
With that said, Wang Zhongyun gestured towards the field and said, "We have the remaining four people in the lower half!"
"Besides me, which one of the other three is not the favorite to compete for first place?"
"With my strength, even if I am not injured at all, I cannot be their opponent."
"I don't want to die, and I don't want to humiliate myself."
"When the time comes, just surrender."
In the lower half where Wang Zhongyun is located, the battle is the most intense.
This is mainly because of the two wars.
One of the battles was that of Wang Zhongyun.
His opponent is not simple either, he is at the level of Queen Yuan.
Therefore, the fight is quite difficult to distinguish.
The winner is decided at the end.
For this reason, Wang Zhongyun was seriously injured.
And the other one was between Jiang Chenglong of Xingsha Sect and Ximen Zhi of Diyang Sect...
