The splendid temple shines brightly in the morning sun, with divine splendor.
In the spacious square in front of the palace, hundreds of young geniuses gathered and were divided into six groups.
Most people looked solemn, with worries hidden between their brows and eyes.
After all, everyone knows that the Glacier Mine is a bitter, cold and dangerous place.
Once he was sent to a divine mine to serve as a divine servant, he lost his freedom and his future in martial arts became slim.
However, many talents have gained great benefits in the secret realm after completing their training, and their strength has improved a lot.
No one can guarantee that they will definitely enter the top fifty.
Only the top ten geniuses have this kind of confidence.
In the middle of the square, there is a huge golden shield, covering an area of thousands of feet.
That area is the arena for ranking battles.
Not long after, the Great Protector came to the square with six divine envoys.
The Great Protector did not waste any time and directly announced the rules of the ranking battle.
"You are not allowed to use battle pets, and you are not allowed to rely on the strength of others.
As long as the point is reached, injuries and disabilities are allowed, but no death is allowed.
Draw lots to determine your opponents, compete against each other in pairs, determine the outcome in one battle, select each level, and finally determine the ranking."
This is the default rule in the martial arts world, and many geniuses have no objection.
Therefore, the Great Protector announced the start of the ranking battle.
The six divine envoys each took out a dozen jade slips and threw them into the sky.
There are ninety-nine jade slips in total. Each jade slip has a name and mark, representing the ninety-nine geniuses participating in the ranking competition.
The Great Protector waved his sleeves, creating a ball of dazzling light that enveloped the jade slips.
The dazzling light rotated extremely fast, disrupting the order of all the jade slips.
After a few breaths, the ninety-nine jade slips were distributed and suspended in pairs in the sky.
There is only a single jade slip floating in the air, which means that a lucky person does not need to participate in the first round of competition and can advance directly.
The Great Protector took down the jade slips in the sky one by one and read out the names on the jade slips.
"Luo Haolin, versus Dai Jianqing.
Wen Yuchun fought against Gu Yunfeng.
Yin Wuque fights against Wu Qingshan.
Qian Feiyang, fighting against Lei Qianxun..."
Soon, the Great Protector finished reading the forty-nine pairs of jade slips.
Ninety-eight young geniuses are about to fight each other in pairs for the first round of competition.
Everyone's expressions became extremely complicated, and there was a commotion and discussion among the crowd.
Some people secretly rejoiced, thinking that they could defeat their opponents and be sure of victory.
Some people looked solemn and even more worried, obviously they had encountered a powerful enemy.
There are also a small number of people who are depressed and unable to express their suffering.
Because their opponents are the geniuses of their own country, it is equivalent to civil war.
But everyone knows that this is the result of a random draw and cannot be changed.
The last jade slip turned out to be Qin Cangqiong's.
He does not need to participate in the first round of competition and advances directly to the next round.
Although everyone thought it was too coincidental, they had no objections.
After all, Qin Cangqiong is the well-deserved number one.
In addition, many people have discovered a problem.
Among the ninety-nine people participating in the ranking battle, Ji Tianxing’s name is not included!
This discovery made everyone feel mixed and started discussing in a noisy manner.
"Ji Tianxing, not only did he not participate in the secret realm experience, he also didn't even participate in the ranking battle?"
"He is so arrogant, he simply flouts the rules of Fengshen Mountain!"
"This is unfair! Why doesn't he participate in the ranking battle?"
"Oh... don't be angry, everyone. Who is the son of the oracle? Of course the Great Protector must take special care of him."
"This bastard just got lucky, otherwise how would he have the right to be arrogant?"
Everyone is anxious and anxious to participate in the ranking battle to determine their future destiny.
Ji Tianxing does not need to participate in the ranking battle and can lie down in Tiansheng Palace and sleep.
The huge contrast made everyone even more depressed, and their impression of Ji Tianxing was extremely bad.
However, everyone could only discuss it and vent their grievances.
Ji Tianxing's status and treatment were beyond their jealousy.
No matter how much they talk, nothing can be changed.
Not long after, the ranking battle began.
Pairs after pairs of young geniuses walked into the defensive formation from around the square and started a fierce battle in the middle of the square.
This is a fateful battle, and no one dares to take it lightly.
Many young geniuses are fully armed, unleashing all their strength and using all their trump cards, just to defeat their opponents.
The process of competition was very fierce and exciting.
Almost everyone showed their strongest side and used their most powerful tricks.
The colorful magic brilliance filled the entire formation and illuminated half of the sky.
Various powerful secret arts collided fiercely in the formation, causing a loud "rumbling" sound that echoed in the sky.
The ground was shaken so hard that violent shock waves continued to bombard the defensive formation.
Many geniuses watched the competition intently to understand the strength and special skills of others.
As time passed, one battle after another ended.
The winner walked out of the formation filled with joy.
The losers looked gloomy, most of them were injured, and their eyes were full of despair.
Three hours later, the first round of competition was over.
The forty-nine winners and Qin Cangqiong all successfully advanced.
These fifty people are the ones who advance, and they will continue to draw lots and compete to determine the final ranking.
The forty-nine geniuses who lost are the eliminated ones.
If nothing else happens, they will all be demoted as servants of the gods and sent to the Glacier Mine.
However, they will continue to draw lots and compete to determine the final ranking.
If you can rank in the top ten among the eliminated ones, you will be eligible to challenge the promoted ones and have the opportunity to change your destiny!
These are the rules set by Fengshen Mountain. Although they sound complicated, they can ensure fairness to the greatest extent.
So, round after round of competitions continued.
Eight hours later, it was late at night.
The night wind was cold and cool in the square, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.
The ranking battle is finally over.
The huge stone tablet beside the square lit up with dazzling golden light, showing everyone's ranking.
Ninety-nine names are arranged on the stone tablet in order.
Most of the people looked tired and had minor or serious injuries on their bodies.
However, some people were filled with relief, with expressions of luck and surprise.
They are the top 50 promotions and can stay in Fengshen Mountain to continue their training.
Some people were in a state of despair, covered in blood, dressed in rags, with disheveled hair, and looked quite embarrassed.
Especially their expressions and eyes were full of pain and despair.
They are the eliminated ones and will be sent to work in the Glacier Mine.
In addition, the rankings of the top geniuses have changed, which has attracted many people's attention and discussion.
The top three have not changed, Qin Cangqiong is still first, Song Zhanyu is second, and Jiang Ningxue is third.
The fifth place has not changed, and it is still very impressive.
However, the fourth place is an unfamiliar name.
Yin is intact!!
No one expected that this person would make it into the top five!
