After the twenty-five names on the surface of the stone tablet were washed away by the aperture, ten names were left, and the remaining fifteen names all disappeared.
The ten names left behind are the ten clearest names on the stone tablet, and they are also the names of the top ten registered disciples this time.
At this moment, the twenty-five named disciples who had just left their names on the stone tablet felt nervous, and their eyes scanned back and forth among the only ten names left on the stone tablet.
Yang Ze is no exception. After all, what you just saw with the naked eye can only be seen roughly. Only by judging the aperture can you see whether your name is really on it.
He began to search, and when he finally found the ninth name, he saw his own name. He felt happy and had a joyful expression on his face.
When he was happy here, the other fifteen registered disciples around him turned into dead faces, looking at Yang Ze as if they wanted to chop Yang Ze into pieces.
Yang Ze's strength was nothing in their eyes, but Yang Ze had a sharp weapon with him. It was with that sharp weapon that Yang Ze snatched a spot. If Yang Ze hadn't been there, each of them would have had a little more.
Chance.
Even the strongest among their registered disciples did not have sharp weapons. They were jealous of Yang Ze's sharp weapons, and even thought that Yang Ze had taken away their places.
Yang Ze was naturally aware of other people's gazes, but he didn't care. He finally became one of the top ten registered disciples. Why should he suppress such joy?
Chang Jingyan and the others looked at Yang Ze with completely different eyes, and said in a low voice: "After so many years, there is finally another registered disciple of the ninth level of true vitality who has become one of the top ten registered disciples."
She was chanting in a low voice, but Yang Ze didn't hear it, but the next moment a voice came down from the high platform, making the happy Yang Ze look solemn.
"Congratulations, you have become the top ten registered disciples in this martial arts tournament." It was Xie Yuan who spoke.
In the next breath, the stone tablet stuck on the ground was pulled up by a strong force, flew directly to the high platform, and disappeared from their sight.
Xie Yuan waved his hand, and his true energy turned into a gust of wind and swept out, wrapping up the fifteen eliminated registered disciples and rolling them to the side of the stand.
"This martial arts competition is much more exciting than in previous years, especially this time there is a registered disciple of the ninth level of true vitality who breaks into the top ten. This situation has not happened for thirty years.
Yes, Yang Ze, you are very good!"
Under the gaze of everyone, Xie Yuan named Yang Ze's name for the first time. He was the only person who received such treatment in this martial arts competition.
When the other disciples in the stands saw Yang Ze who was praised by the Zhangfeng elders, they all remembered this name firmly. To be named by a fifth-level master is not a treatment that just anyone can have.
When Yang Ze saw that he was named, he didn't pay too much attention to the matter. Instead, he heard what Xie Yuan said. Thirty years ago, there were people who had reached the top ten registered disciples with the cultivation of the ninth level of true energy.
.
He really wanted to know who that person was, who was able to achieve this step. He was only able to achieve this step with the help of Black Stone. If the other nine levels of true vitality could achieve this step by relying on their own strength, it would be serious.
horrible.
"The top ten registered disciples have been decided. Now, we are going to start the final round of this martial arts competition, the ranking battle among the ten of you!"
As soon as Xie Yuan said these words, the chaotic scene suddenly became quiet. It was finally the last round, and this will also be the most exciting round.
"The top ten named disciples are the ten of you. Sort according to your previous names, which is your current ranking. Let's start the challenge here. Those of you who are ranked lower can challenge those who are ranked higher. If the challenge is successful, you will replace
Position, challenge failed, this martial arts tournament ends here, do you understand!"
Xie Yuan's voice clearly reached everyone's ears. This was the last battle of the martial arts competition in the past. The challenge determines the outcome.
Yang Ze remembered that his name was ranked ninth, which meant that there was only one person who could challenge him. If the person succeeded in the challenge, he could continue to challenge. If the challenge failed, he would lose the qualification to challenge.
After clarifying the rules in his mind, Yang Ze made a decision. He looked at the high platform and suddenly shouted out.
"Elder Qi, I have something to say!"
Yang Ze had gathered his true energy, and his voice echoed through the entire venue. Xie Yuan and the other elders on the high platform all looked towards Yang Ze at this time.
"Yang Ze, what do you have to say?" Xie Yuan asked.
Being watched by these people, Yang Ze's mind did not waver, and he said in a firm tone: "Elder Qi, I am willing to give up the qualifications for this last round of challenge and be demoted to tenth place!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate sensation in the venue. No one expected that Yang Ze would give up his qualification for the challenge after reaching this point.
Even though they are all top ten registered disciples, if they can go one step further, if they can enter the top three, the rewards will be even more generous.
After hearing Yang Ze's words, there was a lot of discussion in the venue, all discussing this matter.
Xie Yuan, who was on the high platform, looked calm at first, but when he suddenly heard Yang Ze say these words, his expression immediately changed.
He had just seen that Yang Ze had really become one of the top ten registered disciples. He was still a little emotional and was surprised by Ning Teng's eyes. However, Yang Ze's sudden abstention made him startled and anger arose in his heart.
For many years, no one has fought hard for such an honorable status as one of the top ten registered disciples. No one has ever said that he would abstain on such an occasion and would rather just be ranked tenth.
"Give me a reason." Xie Yuan's calm voice came down from the high platform. This voice was so calm that everyone shuddered.
"The reason is that the disciple doesn't want to fight anymore." Yang Ze said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"Then why didn't you wait until the battle started before giving up, instead of causing such a thing at this time?" Xie Yuan continued to ask.
"That's because I don't think that I am no match for others, I just don't want to waste my energy on it. If I give up now, I'm giving up the chance to fight. If I don't give up until the moment of action, I'm giving up the fight and running away.
As a warrior, I don't want to give up the fight, but I can give up this opportunity."
Yang Ze explained his reasons. In fact, he was too lazy to take action again. If he continued fighting, he would not be able to enter the top three. Besides, except for the top three, the rewards were the same.
Why go to all the trouble, maybe even get hurt, and finally strive for something that you can't get at all.
Besides, I can accept giving up the opportunity, but giving up the fight is impossible.
As a warrior, when faced with challenges, you should move forward without hesitation in order to maintain a positive attitude. If you run away from the battle and your morale is damaged, how can you practice well in the future?
It was with this in mind that Yang Ze decided to do this and give up the opportunity so that others would not have the chance to challenge him. This would neither waste his energy nor lose his morale.
As for his reputation, his reputation has improved a lot in this martial arts competition, which is completely enough for him.
Xie Yuan's sophistication could see through Yang Ze's thoughts at a glance. For a moment, he never expected that Yang Ze, who looked young, could be so smooth and old-fashioned and could say this shamelessly.
"Have you really decided to give up the opportunity to challenge?" Xie Yuan asked again, his tone having changed a little.
"This disciple has made up his mind, please ask Elder Zhangfeng to make it happen!" Yang Ze said, cupping his fists.
Xie Yuan's face turned a little ugly, but he just said: "Okay, then you can go to the stage and wait."
After saying that, a ray of true energy wrapped around Yang Ze's body and threw Yang Ze directly to the side of the stand. The force was so strong that Yang Ze's body was almost thrown off directly and he fell to the ground.
Yang Ze didn't care about other people's eyes, patted the dust on his body and stood up. No matter what, the goal was finally achieved. There was no need to use such meaningless hands, it was exactly what he wanted.
Yang Ze, who was standing on one side, found a place to sit down. In the center, nine other registered disciples were already standing there, starting one challenge after another.
After the continuous fighting, the sky also turned dark at this time. There were pieces of jade around the platform that emitted light. The light was like small suns, illuminating the entire platform like daylight.
It has been quite a while since he came to this world, and Yang Ze now has some understanding of these things. The stone that can illuminate in the dark night is called luminous stone, which is quite magical.
The moment the Luminous Stone lit up, the first battle began. Two half-step first-level warriors fought fiercely on the ring.
There are only nine people left in the ring at this moment, but everyone is watching the remaining battle intently, just because this will be the most exciting battle.
The same goes for Yang Ze. He doesn't take action, but he is still very interested in this battle. He wants to see how far he is from the strongest among the registered disciples.
In the end, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it. Once he looked at it, he felt that his decision was right.
When the disciple who was originally ranked tenth and the disciple who was ranked eighth started fighting, he was not sure he could deal with the momentum that broke out.
Both of them are stronger than Shui Ziming, and the tyranny of their true energy is simply not comparable to that of Shui Ziming's newly developed true energy.
Fortunately, he did not join the battle blindly, otherwise he would have been injured and his subsequent cultivation would have been delayed.
This round of challenge lasted for a day and a night before it was over. Yang Ze was a little surprised when he fell in the final place.
Because the first place winner turned out to be Chang Jingyan, and the second place winner turned out to be Meng Liwei!
