The arena was clearly divided into two camps. Ling Xuewei, Xiao Yifeng, and Huangfu Chen were in the same camp, and Yu Dongyi, Chang Yao, Chang Yu, and Huo Yunqi were in the same camp.
Huangfuchen looked at the other four people gathered in a group and whispered, and he immediately became alert.
"You don't know what these people are planning?" Huangfu Chen said, squinting his eyes.
"They are probably discussing how to get more of their people to enter the second round!"
Ling Xuewei touched her chin. She didn't even need to think carefully to know what the elders and disciples over there were planning.
"So one of the two of you's opponent will most likely be Senior Brother Yu. Senior Brother Yu's current cultivation level has reached the realm of Emperor Martial Arts. It will depend on which of you is more unlucky."
"No matter who my opponent is, I will try my best." Xiao Yifeng said expressionlessly, and there was even a bit of expectation on his face.
"No matter what their plans are, I am very confident in the championship this time. Anyway, my goal in this trial has been achieved. Now that it has reached this point, I don't mind playing with them even more." Ling Xuewei He said nonchalantly, "We just have to see how they plan to attack."
"That's what I said. This time, Xuewei, your number one position, Xiao Yifeng and I will try our best to keep it for you." Huangfu Chen followed up.
"You guys just relax and try your best!" Ling Xuewei patted Huangfuchen on the shoulder.
"Senior Brother Yu, it's just choosing an opponent for the ring competition. Is it that difficult?" Huangfu Chen walked to the center of the ring, "I don't know if you are going to choose me or Junior Brother Xiao."
"Junior Brother Huangfu..." Yu Dongyi showed a helpless smile.
Originally, he was not planning to make any small moves in this arena.
In this kind of arena competition where you can choose by yourself, it is common sense to choose the weakest opponent in order to ensure that you advance.
If Yu Dongyi really had to choose, he would definitely choose between Chang Yu and Chang Yao.
What he has to do now is to eliminate Huangfu Chen and Xiao Yifeng, who are very competitive in the arena.
Yu Dongyi has a good relationship with Huangfuchen and Xiao Yifeng, so he can't make this decision.
Now Huangfuchen directly exposed his little thoughts, which made Yu Dongyi even more embarrassed.
"Senior Brother Yu, I don't know how long it has been since we entered this trial tower. I believe everyone is already tired, so there is no need for us to worry about these things."
Huangfuchen no longer wanted to waste time.
"Senior Brother Yu, if you don't know how to choose, then I will help you choose, and I will be your opponent!"
"Junior Brother Huangfu, thank you very much!" Yu Dongyi glanced at Huangfu Chen gratefully.
It's not because of him, but Yu Dongyi has an absolute advantage in the first round of this group competition. Whether he chooses Huangfu Chen or Xiao Yifeng, he will definitely be the winner in the end.
This also means that whoever he chooses is destined to be eliminated in the first round.
What Huangfu Chen did was equivalent to voluntarily giving up on the eighth floor of the trial tower.
"Huangfu Chen?" Xiao Yifeng grabbed Huangfu Chen's elbow. He didn't know why Huangfu Chen did this.
"This trial is insignificant to me, but don't forget, this is a great opportunity for you to prove your strength." Huangfu Chen said, "Don't have any burden, just give it your best."
Huangfu Chendu offered to let Yu Dongyi choose him as his opponent, and Yu Dongyi naturally would not refuse.
The two people ranked second and third have already found their opponents, and the only thing left is for Xiao Yifeng, ranked fourth, to make a choice.
There is nothing pleasant about Xiao Yifeng's choice. In order to ensure that he can advance, he chose Huo Yunqi, who has the worst cultivation level.
After Xiao Yifeng finished selecting his opponents, only the two disciples of the Third Elder, Chang Yao and Chang Yu, were left. They could only be assigned to the same group.
Chang Yu and Chang Yao are brothers and sisters under the same elder, but they are fighting for the same spot.
Chang Yu and Chang Yao's expressions were very calm, because they were competing for a spot in the second round, which meant that one of them could guarantee entry into the second round of the arena competition.
Now Chang Yu and Chang Yao are no longer fighting for their personal reputations, they are fighting for their master's face.
Two of the apprentices of Third Elder Qi Feng finally entered the eighth floor of the trial tower. If they couldn't even pass the first round of the arena competition and were all eliminated, they would not be able to see their master.
Not to mention that the current eighth-level arena competition is still hosted by their master Qi Feng himself.
If one of the two of them can enter the second round of the arena competition, let’s not say whether they can advance smoothly in the second round, but at least one of the disciples of the third elder Qi Feng has entered the second round of the arena competition, and he will lose even if he loses.
It won't be that ugly.
Huo Yunqi gritted his teeth in anger. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Yu Dongyi's choice, but it turned out that it was not him who took advantage, but the two disciples of the third elder.
When Xiao Yifeng selected him, Huo Yunqi knew that his hope of passing the first round of the group competition today was slim.
The opponent is Xiao Yifeng, and now he simply cannot see through Xiao Yifeng's strength.
This can only mean one thing, that is, Xiao Yifeng's cultivation level is higher than his.
After the six people who participated in the first round were divided into groups, the arena competition quickly began.
The first round of the arena competition didn't have many highlights.
In the competition between Huangfu Chen and Yu Dongyi, although Huangfu Chen performed very well, the huge gap in strength between him and Yu Dongyi was not something that Huangfu Chen could make up for by relying on other aspects.
It is not an easy task for a cultivator of the Dzogchen realm of Martial Lord to defeat a cultivator of Martial Emperor realm, even if he is the first level of Martial Emperor.
Huangfuchen regretfully lost the competition, but Yu Dongyi successfully advanced.
This was the result that Huangfuchen had expected all along, so he didn't feel too disappointed.
After losing the competition, Huangfu Chen silently stood aside.
A total of seven people entered the eighth floor of the trial tower, and in the end only one person was able to enter the ninth floor of the trial tower, so the elimination was not as harsh as the previous floors.
Huangfu Chen did not leave the trial tower, but was allowed to watch the battle in the trial tower.
After all, it is much more convenient to stand directly on the edge of the ring and watch the competition than to watch through the light curtain outside the trial tower.
There is no suspense in the competition between Xiao Yifeng and Huo Yunqi. Xiao Yifeng is a killer and has walked on the edge of life and death countless times, giving him rich experience when facing enemies. This is something that disciples who have been practicing in the sect for many years cannot have.
experience.
Xiao Yifeng easily caught Huo Yunqi's gap and knocked Huo Yunqi away with just one palm.
Xiao Yifeng also successfully advanced to the second round of the group competition.
As for the last game of the first round of the arena competition, the competition between the two disciples of the third elder, Chang Yao and Chang Yu.
This competition was even more unremarkable.
Chang Yu and Chang Yao fought very politely. After a few rounds, Chang Yao won with a slight advantage.
At this point, the list for the second round of the arena competition has been decided.
Ling Xuewei, Yu Dongyi, Xiao Yifeng, and Chang Yao.
Ling Xuewei watched this boring competition and almost fell asleep.
Fortunately, each competition was very short, and we entered the second round after a while.
"Elder Qi, since you said that you will choose your opponent based on ranking in this competition, as the first person to enter the eighth floor of the trial tower, do I also have the right to choose my opponent for the next group competition?"
Ling Xuewei spoke first before Qi Feng announced the lineup for the second round.
"Ling Xuewei! There are only four people in the second round. If you are asked to choose your opponent, wouldn't you have the final say in this match?" Huo Yunqi was the first to call out.
There are four people in total. No matter who Ling Xuewei chooses as her opponent, the remaining two people have no choice at all.
"You have been eliminated, do you still have the right to speak?" Ling Xuewei glanced at Huo Yunqi disdainfully, and shut up Huo Yunqi obediently with just one sentence.
"This..." Qi Feng laughed dryly, "Yun Qi is right. If you were asked to choose, there are so few people in this round, and others would have no choice at all."
"Anyway, only one person can enter the ninth floor of the trial tower at the end. Who should we fight with in this arena? How about we let the four people who enter the second round vote and see if everyone agrees.
Should I choose my opponent first?" Ling Xuewei sneered, "Are you all scared? You don't even have the courage!"
"I agree!" Xiao Yifeng always stood firmly on Ling Xuewei's side no matter what Ling Xuewei said.
"Ling Xuewei, do you think your provocation method will be effective?" Chang Yu said angrily.
"Can those who have been eliminated please be quiet?" Ling Xuewei frowned, "Don't forget, you have been eliminated, and you are actually leaving the trial tower. Now I want you to stay and continue to watch the next game, isn't it?
You are here to influence our trials!"
After speaking, Ling Xuewei looked at Yu Dongyi.
As for Chang Yao, Ling Xuewei never expected to win her vote from the beginning.
"I agree!" Yu Dongyi said without hesitation.
Just now, Yu Dongyi was forced to have no choice by several junior brothers and sisters, so he had to agree to their request and eliminated Huangfu Chen in the first round.
Yu Dongyi already felt very sorry for Ling Xuewei, so Ling Xuewei proposed that she choose her opponent in the second round. Yu Dongyi never thought of objecting.
Yu Dongyi felt that this was also a kind of compensation for Ling Xuewei and the others.
"Senior Brother Yu, thank you first." After Ling Xuewei finished speaking, she looked at Qi Feng, "Now three of the four of us have agreed. Elder Qi, I wonder if I can choose my opponent now?"
