In the Hidden Dragon Competition, only the top 100 people need to determine the specific ranking.
Of course, from the 31st to the 100th place among the top 100 people, the rewards in the Qianlong Competition are all the same. Ranking in order actually just earns face.
On the other hand, for the top thirty people, the higher the ranking, the richer the rewards will be.
Especially for the top ten people, the rewards are the richest. As far as is known, everyone can get an Emperor-Connecting Divine Fruit, a magical elixir that allows the upper-level God-King to ignore bottlenecks and break through to become a God-Emperor.
However, even if the rewards for the seventy people behind the top one hundred are the same, the ranking battle is still very fierce, and everyone is working hard to climb up.
"It seems that these people are very smart."
Hou Qingning laughed.
"That's natural."
Ding Yan said matter-of-factly: "There are no fools who can cultivate to their level...Although the rewards are the same regardless of whether they are ranked 31st or 100th, as long as they are in the limelight enough, they may be beaten by some black dragon elder.
If you like it, take it under your wing."
"Is it possible to become the disciple of Elder Jinlong?"
Hou Qingning asked.
"Basically impossible."
Ding Yan shook his head, "Elder Jinlong, there are not many in the Tianlong Sect... Each of them, placed in the Tianlong Sect, has the same status as the three elders of Yunyin Sect, Yunwu Lei."
"Not to mention those ranked 31st, even those ranked 11th to 30th, whose status is as high as Elder Jinlong, I will definitely look down on them."
"There is still a glimmer of hope for those in the top ten, but it is not absolute."
Ding Yan is still aware of some situations in the Tianlong Sect.
In the Tianlong Sect, the Black Dragon Elder is not the highest among all the elders... Above the Black Dragon Elder, there is the Golden Dragon Elder, who is the most powerful person in the Tianlong Sect, and there are only a handful of them in the entire Tianlong Sect.
The Golden Dragon Elders are all top-notch beings among the upper-level God Emperors.
Even the current leader of the Tianlong Sect is slightly inferior to them.
In today's Tianlong Sect, the Golden Dragon Elder is the strongest, followed by the Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master, and then the Black Dragon Elder... Of course, the strength of the few Black Dragon Elders is not as strong as the current Sect Master and those few of the Tianlong Sect.
The deputy leader is weak.
"Elder Jinlong..."
Duan Lingtian stood aside and listened quietly to the conversation between Ding Yan and Hou Qingning. He had only heard that there were several Golden Dragon elders in the Tianlong Sect, and their strength was close to that of the God Emperor.
There are one or two more who are only one step away from the God Emperor.
…
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
This day is also the day when the specific rankings of those ranked thirty are determined.
As for the order of the duel, who will duel with whom, it is still arranged by the ten Tianlong Sect elders... Thirty people, divided into fifteen duels.
It's all strong versus weak.
Ding Yan played earlier than Duan Lingtian and lost to his opponent.
The one who defeated Ding Yan was Murong Luofeng, a direct descendant of the Murong family, who was also Murong Yinyue's cousin. When Ding Yan came on the stage, Murong Yinyue said in private that Ding Yan was probably not her cousin.
Brother's opponent.
After a duel, Ding Yan was defeated.
The secrets of the law that Murong Luofeng understood were not weaker than those of Ding Yan. Although the power of his bloodline was not as good as that of Ding Yan, he still easily defeated Ding Yan with his cultivation as a god king that was far superior to that of Ding Yan.
Ding Yan was not surprised by his defeat this time.
His personal cultivation is his biggest flaw.
Of course, at his age, it is actually quite good to have the cultivation level of a lower god king.
He is less than three thousand years old, while Murong Luofeng is nearly ten thousand years old.
Moreover, Ding Yan has long been mentally prepared, knowing that with his own strength, even if he can squeeze into the top thirty, he will definitely be at the bottom of the top thirty.
While Ding Yan was defeated, Hua Tiandu on the other side also defeated his opponent after ten moves.
Now Hua Tiandu and Ding Yan, the seventh girl on the field, also defeated their opponent, but only after twenty moves.
Of course, this does not mean that Hua Tiandu is better than the seventh girl.
The difference in strength between the two opponents is not small.
In terms of strength, Duan Lingtian's judgment on the strength of the seventh girl's opponent would make it easy for them to break into the top twenty.
As for Hua Tiandu's opponents, even if they are not at the bottom, they are at most around twenty-fifth.
"Ouyang Jianchen and Ji Wuchang also won..."
After Hua Tiandu and Qiniang, Ouyang Jianchen of the Ouyang Family and Ji Wuchang of the Hanchu Sect also won one after another.
Then, in the other five duels, after a lot of fighting, five people also won, but it was more difficult.
Up to now, the remaining people are basically very strong.
Except for those who are particularly strong, the rest of the people are not much different in strength.
"Now, ten people are tentatively designated as the top fifteen."
In the battle for the top thirty rankings, the top fifteen will be determined first, and the people temporarily ranked in the top fifteen will also be challenged by the people temporarily ranked in the bottom fifteen.
Of course, if you fail the challenge, you will also be punished according to the previous rules.
Unless you have enough self-confidence, the challenge is to seek abuse.
"Duan Lingtian, it's your turn."
There were ten battle arenas in total. After the top twenty people decided on the ten winners, the remaining ten people, including Duan Lingtian, also boarded the arena again.
This time, there are only five duels.
Among these five duels, the most eye-catching ones are two of them...one of them is Duan Lingtian's duel.
Duan Lingtian is no stranger to everyone present.
In fact, Duan Lingtian can be regarded as a well-known person in the area around Tianlong Sect, and he is also a popular candidate for the top three in the Hidden Dragon Competition in everyone's eyes.
The most important thing is that Duan Lingtian is less than three thousand years old!
Moreover, it is said that he is more than a hundred years younger than Ding Yan, who is less than 3,000 years old and is in the top 30!
Originally, Ding Yan's popularity was already strong enough.
But Duan Lingtian's limelight completely overwhelmed him. Many people even whispered in private that Ding Yan was unlucky and that Duan Lingtian had completely stolen the limelight.
Ding Yan, as the person involved, naturally heard these whispers, but he didn't care.
In his eyes, Duan Lingtian is a pervert, and he will not compare with Duan Lingtian!
"Ding Yan, how many moves do you think Duan Lingtian can use to defeat his opponent this time?"
Hou Qingning asked with a smile.
This was also Duan Lingtian's second time taking action. Since his last action, Duan Lingtian's strength showed that the ten Tianlong Sect elders who presided over the Qianlong Competition directly gave Duan Lingtian a place in the top thirty.
This kind of treatment is only available to a few dozen people.
And after these ten people were tentatively ranked among the top thirty, no one challenged him. First, they all knew that they were powerful, and second, they all believed in the ten elders of the Tianlong Sect to a certain extent.
vision.
"Duan Lingtian's opponent this time is from the God-Emperor Sect Rakshasa Sect. He is a close disciple of the Rakshasa Sect's master and one of the two most outstanding geniuses among the younger generation of Rakshasa Sect... If he didn't hide any trump cards before
If so, there is no suspense that Duan Lingtian can defeat him within ten moves. If he has any trump cards, he should be able to last longer."
As Ding Yan spoke, he was obviously full of confidence in Duan Lingtian.
The conversation between the two was not quiet, and was also heard by several disciples of the Rakshasa Sect who were standing not far away. The other party's expression suddenly became unpleasant, and he glared at the two of them fiercely.
"A loser, do you have the nerve to talk about my disciples of Sha Zheng Humen?"
The current leader of the Rakshasa Sect, Sha Zhenghu, a middle-aged man with a strong build, a resolute and stern face, glanced at Ding Yan and Hou Qingning lightly, and said with a sarcastic smile.
"Your disciples will soon become losers like us."
Different from Hou Qingning's slightly fearful frown, Ding Yan directly retorted, not giving them any face because the other party was the leader of a god-king-level sect.
At this time, Hou Qingning also gave Ding Yan a thumbs up.
ox!
It's different when there's a backstage.
At this moment, while Hou Qingning felt that Ding Yan was majestic, he felt a sense of loss in his heart. Why don't I have a supporter who is a black dragon elder in Tianlong Sect?
In the Tianlong Sect, even if you are a worshiper from outside, if you want to have the identity of the Black Dragon Elder, you must at least have the strength of the Black Dragon Elder.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to give such a high status.
It is not difficult to guess the strength of Ding Yan's uncle, who is at least a high-ranking God Emperor.
As for the upper-level God-Emperor, even if it is just an ordinary upper-level God-Emperor, it is not comparable to the leader of the Rakshasa Sect who only has the cultivation level of the lower-level God Emperor.
"Boy, you are looking for death!"
Sha Zhenghu was furious after being provoked by a boy at the lower god-king level. When he looked at Ding Yan again, his eyes flashed coldly and his tone was filled with murderous intent.
Bang!!
Almost at the moment Sha Zhenghu finished speaking, a loud noise was heard, causing the ten people in the five-party fighting ring who were about to take action to temporarily stop their movements.
"puff"
Under the eyes of Duan Lingtian and others, Sha Zhenghu, the leader of the Rakshasa Sect, flew backwards, blood spurting from his mouth, and flew hundreds of meters before barely stopping.
"This is just a warning... If I hear anyone dare to dare to kill my disciples of Tianlong Sect again, I don't mind sending him on his way."
The voice of Black Dragon Elder Lan Yushan sounded at the right time.
He was the one who took action against Sha Zhenghu,
Sha Zhenghu's face was as gloomy as water, and a look of fear and fear flashed in his eyes. Only then did he remember that the man who spoke so shamelessly was a disciple of the Tianlong Sect, just like his disciples.
And he actually said that he wanted to kill the disciples of the Tianlong Sect in front of the Black Dragon Elder of the Tianlong Sect.
At this moment, he only regretted that he should not have used his words.
"Master!"
Duan Lingtian's opponent, a disciple of Sha Zheng Humen, a young man wearing a scarlet robe with a stern face, also suddenly changed his face at this time.
Of course, he did not dare to vent his inner anger on Lan Yushan, the black dragon elder who took action.
After he glanced at Ding Yan coldly, his eyes fell on Duan Lingtian again, his eyes flashing coldly, "Duan Lingtian, it seems that your friend has great confidence in you."
