Cao Shun had already admitted defeat, but Shen Chen did not act aggressively or humiliate him. Shen Chen still admired a man like Cao Shun who had worked hard and fought hard. He took back his iron sword, turned around and stood quietly aside.
"This round, Shen Chen wins!" Later, Elder Situ Chuan also announced the result of the competition at the edge of the ring.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the disciples who had recovered from the shock immediately started to erupt into an unprecedented excitement.
"One move? Shen Chen really defeated Iron Hammer Cao Caoshun with one move. Why do I have such an unreal feeling!" Some disciples have not yet fully recovered.
"Haha... How can this be false? I was testing it before. With one strike of the sword, the outcome is determined..." Some people were also smiling bitterly.
"Is that the Purple Electric Current Cloud Sword, our sect's martial art? Oh my God, I didn't even see how Senior Brother Shen Chen used the sword."
"Yeah, it's incredibly fast!"
"Beyond one level to defeat the enemy with one move. This should have never happened before in the history of the sect, right?"
…
Compared to Shen Chen's victory over Cao Shun, these disciples of Liuyun Sect were obviously more concerned about the former's shocking methods.
Some people even couldn't help but exclaim, why it wasn't them who picked up the "Purple Lightning Cloud Sword", and why they weren't the ones who were punished...
"Grandpa, big brother has won, big brother has won!" A little girl with a ponytail was jumping up and down in the crowd, extremely excited.
The little girl is Wang Yue's younger sister Wang Zixin. She has put on a new outfit today. She came with her grandfather to watch the Liuyun Sect competition. Seeing Shen Chen shine like that just now, the little girl's eyes were almost happy. It curved into two crescent moons and kept giggling.
"Haha, when I first rescued him, I felt that his bones were amazing and he was definitely not something in a pool!"
Next to the little girl, Wang Yue's grandfather Wang Hao was also happy with Shen Chen's performance. His cultivation was average, but his medical skills were very good. When he rescued Shen Chen from the back of a dead dragon-scale flowing cloud horse, I feel that this young man's physique is very unusual, and I can't even see through him. The old man has always been curious about the young man's identity...
"Grandpa, the eldest brother has already appeared, what about my brother?" Wang Zixin was excited for a long time, and suddenly thought of something. She turned around and looked at Wang Hao with hopeful eyes. The little girl was not tall, and among the crowd, her eyesight She could only see the top of the ring, and she was very concerned about her brother Wang Yue's situation at the moment.
"That kid probably hasn't had his turn yet, but if he stands with Brother Shen Chen, he should be qualified to take the stage. I hope he won't embarrass me." Wang Hao touched Wang Zixin's head, his eyes full of kindness.
In fact, it is not that Wang Yue has not taken the turn, but has already taken the turn. The reason why he did not take the stage is very simple - the person he challenged was Lin Hai's former party member Hu San. That kid had a ranking of more than sixty. But he admitted defeat very simply, which allowed Wang Yue to get a good ranking in vain, and even saved the process of getting on stage, but the old and the young didn't know it at the moment...
And while there was an uproar around the arena, Shen Chen's actions just now also caused quite a commotion in the VIP seats.
"Haha, this boy is extremely talented. Sect Leader Liao is really discerning. No wonder he teaches the Zhen Sect martial arts."
"Yes, yes, my Yi'er is also well-known among the inner disciples, but compared with that little friend, he pales in comparison."
"I wonder if Sect Leader Liao intends to take it into his sect. If so, He Mansion does have some high-quality Ganoderma lucidum that can be given to high disciples for the purpose of tempering their bodies and strengthening their bodies..."
In the VIP seats, some people with high status within a hundred miles were also sighing at Shen Chen's amazing performance. However, they also seemed to be testing Liao Yan's tone.
The significance of the "Purple Current Cloud Sword" to the Liuyun Sect is basically known to all family heads and clan leaders with some status within a hundred miles. If this unique skill is really passed down by Liao Yan, how will they treat Shen Chen, a previously unknown disciple? Attitudes may really undergo earth-shaking changes.
Relying on the big tree of Liuyun Sect, naturally no one does not want to curry favor with those who have a good status in the sect. Compared with those hall masters and deacons, what can be better than winning over the next generation successor of Liuyun Sect? What about foresight?
For a time, some of the old monsters present had even begun to think about what generous gifts they would send to them when they returned.
"Haha, don't get me wrong. That kid just picked up the martial arts of our sect by luck. I have already severely punished him. It was definitely not Liao's intention!" Liao Yan's mood was quite exciting, but on his face, he couldn't help but Pretending to be filled with hatred for Shen Chen, although Liao Yan valued the latter very much, it was obviously not the time to reveal his thoughts. If he went too far at this time, there would be many disciples. , the elders are so noisy...
However, the more Liao Yan was so quibbling, the more solid his intentions were in the eyes of a group of old monsters around him. As a result, instead of looking down on Shen Chen, they valued him more and more.
"You can still survive after stealing martial arts from the Zhen sect. Master Liao is really rich." The leader of the Tao Ma Clan sighed with emotion.
"Well, the Liuyun Sect has been passed down for hundreds of years. It has always convinced people with virtue, and it has always treated disciples who made big mistakes with generosity. It has to be admired." The old woman from the Feng family also said.
"It can only be said that that boy was lucky enough to meet such a broad-minded person as Sect Leader Liao. If he were in another sect, he would have been dead long ago." The head of the Zhao family sneered again and again.
These old monsters were very sophisticated. On the surface, they followed Liao Yan and denounced Shen Chen's crimes, but secretly, they felt more and more that they must establish a good relationship with the young man as soon as possible, and it would be best to let their juniors have more contact with him in the future.
Beside the ring, Shen Chen, who had already walked off the stage, had no idea that he had become a favorite in the eyes of others. He, like Zhong Ling and others beside him, were all waiting for Elder Situ Chuan. Announce the upcoming competition.
Looking at the expectant eyes, the old man didn't show off, and said directly in front of everyone: "If the disciples who have successfully maintained their rankings want to go further, they can choose their opponents again, or they can choose to give up and do their best. Let’s do it!”
After hearing the old man's words, except for the top-ranked disciples who had not come on stage before, there seemed to be not many people who came to register with Deacon Fei. Many disciples who successfully maintained their rankings chose to return to their original place after a slight hesitation.
They know very well that after the performance, the next step is the real fight between dragons and tigers. The ranking of the top fifty sects has always been a competition between outstanding disciples. Without that ability, they will only ask for trouble after taking the stage.
As a result, the number of people participating in the second round of the competition was reduced by more than half. Many disciples who were ranked outside the 70s consciously withdrew from the field and competed with the disciples who had not received the wooden cards before. Stand together and watch the fun.
At the end, Shen Chen roughly counted and found that there were only about fifty or sixty people left around the ring, and they were all ruthless characters around the fifth level of the Blood Fusion Realm. He and Wang Yue stood here, seemingly Became the worst group of people.
"Okay, since you choose to stay, let's start with the lowest-ranked person here." Old Man Situ Chuan said leisurely on the stage, glancing at Deacon Fei in the audience.
Deacon Fei quickly understood and nodded, then turned around and said to the fifty or sixty outstanding disciples left behind: "After you have finished writing, hand over the letter in your hands!"
Previously, he had distributed a blank letter to everyone who stayed, asking them to sign and then write down the name of their opponent. This was a method that had been used in the first round. After all, there were so many people. If the champion appeared, If there are not enough places to be challenged, coordination must be made according to the rules first.
In addition, the order of appearance must also be arranged from low to high.
After Deacon Fei finished speaking, the fifty or sixty disciples present immediately handed over the letters in their hands.
Immediately afterwards, Deacon Fei and several subordinates had to use a short period of time to browse through all the letters and make arrangements for the appearance. However, this was originally a small matter that could be done in half a cup of tea. When they read one of the letters, , the expressions of several people suddenly stiffened.
"Deacon Fei, what's wrong?" Situ Chuan asked doubtfully as he stood on the ring. He noticed that there seemed to be some trouble over there.
"Deacon Fei, hurry up, it's getting late, and the competition process can't be delayed for too long!" Liao Yan, the leader of the VIP table, also said calmly. Considering that many guests who came to watch had to rush back in the dust, he The timing of the sect competition must be grasped.
"Reporting to the sect leader, Elder Situ, this..."
Holding the letter in question in his hand, Deacon Fei had several black lines hanging on his forehead, and his expression was extremely exciting.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Liao Yan said with an unhappy look on his face.
"This...this...this letter is not in line with the rules!" Hearing the sect leader's scolding, Deacon Fei's face became even more ugly.
"Bring it here and let me see!" Liao Yan held out his palm without getting angry. For some reason, he had a very bad feeling.
On the stage, Elder Situ Chuan's mouth twitched slightly, as if he had already guessed something.
The next moment, Deacon Fei handed the letter to Liao Yan with a strange look on his face. After the latter took it, he saw two words written on the front of the envelope - Shen Chen!
It is immediately obvious who the letter belongs to.
After seeing that name, Sect Master Liao Yan's pupils shrank slightly, but he still suppressed the turmoil in his heart and slowly unfolded the letter paper. Then, when the three lines of wet ink on the letter paper fell, The moment it entered his eyes, Liao Yan almost turned to stone and felt the urge to vomit blood.
I saw three names written crookedly on the letter paper...
Yuan Xiao!
Fang Han!
Qi Zheng!
Seeing these three names, Liao Yan finally understood why Deacon Fei had a dark face just now. Immediately, he raised his head and glanced around the ring with a vicious gaze. Soon, he locked onto Shen Chen in the crowd. figure.
"Ahem...I'm just trying to save trouble," Shen Chen looked embarrassed when the sect master stared at him like that. In fact, from the moment Deacon Fei said there was something wrong with the letter, he knew he was in trouble again.
It does seem like a prank to write down the opponents you want to challenge three times in a letter at once, but in Shen Chen's opinion, it is natural. That is his original intention and there is no need to hide it.
It's a pity that Shen Chen thinks that way, but others don't think so. The sect leader Liao Yan threw the letter out in anger. At this moment, it was picked up by several curious disciples and they rushed to circulate it!
