"Look, Senior Qin Yu and the other three have also defeated their opponents."
At this time, one of the students of Tianyan Academy noticed the battle between Lei Meng and Gu Yunle and exclaimed in surprise.
After hearing this, Ying Yuanzi and the others no longer paid attention to the bald old man with a face full of resentment, and all looked up at the light screen projection in the sky.
But I saw light curtains in the three war zones in the east, west and north.
Qin Yu, Lei Meng, and Gu Yunle defeated their opponents on the fourth-level stage almost at the same time and successfully advanced.
As a result, Tianyan Academy alone has occupied four places in the top 20 list of the Hundred Colleges Competition.
This number means there is one more place than Wuling Academy, which has always been at the top of the list!
In response to this, many academic forces in the square could not help but be shocked.
After all, Tianyan Academy is only an academy of a small dynasty.
In all the previous Hundred Colleges Competitions, it has never been able to make it into the top 20.
But this time, four dark horses emerged and directly overshadowed Wuling Academy.
"Brother Ying, your Tianyan Academy has produced many talented people this time. Congratulations."
"Isn't it? The top 20 take up four places. Looking at all the schools in the Sky Continent, who else can do that?"
"These four young men have a bright future ahead of them."
For a moment, the leaders of the surrounding academic institutions all came forward to congratulate.
"Thank you for your kind words. This is the result of the hard work of these young people."
Ying Yuanzi's face was flushed, he bowed and clasped his hands, and complimented each other with a smile.
As if it was an intentional flattery, the crowd began to disperse.
Let Ying Yuanzi and others from Tianyan Academy walk to the front of the square, the best area closest to the light screen projection.
And this area is currently occupied by the powerful group of Wuling Academy.
The old man in the lead was about seventy years old, with gray hair and a golden crown on his head. He had a rather grim expression.
This person is none other than the current head of Wuling Academy, Jiang Du.
He stood with his hands behind his back, glancing at Ying Yuanzi and others who had already entered the area with a slightly cold look in his eyes.
That subtle reaction seemed to make him feel that Tianyan Academy had a sense of usurping the throne.
"Master Jiang, how are you?"
Ying Yuanzi came closer, clasped his fists and greeted him.
However, despite such politeness, he was responded with silent indifference.
Jiang Du ignored him and stood where he was, still looking up at the light screen projection in the sky.
contempt.
Absolute contempt!
The atmosphere in the field suddenly became a little tense.
Some of the academic forces that were defeated by Lin Hao were secretly gloating over their misfortune.
The students of Tianyan Academy suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.
But this place is the territory of Wuling Academy, so they dare not speak out.
In response, Ying Yuanzi smiled faintly and withdrew his hand, also looking up at the sky, as if nothing had happened.
His expression seemed calm, but inwardly he snorted, "Lin Hao, you four brothers, if you beat those guys from Wuling Academy to death, I will reward you handsomely!"
At this time, Lin Hao was walking slowly in the dark passage.
The same was true for Qin Yu and the other three.
They had no idea what kind of humiliation their Tianyan Academy had suffered in the outside world!
After moving forward like this, Lin Hao finally reached the end of the passage.
After passing through the gate, an extremely vast battlefield appeared in sight.
However, the battle platform here is not the enclosed type like before, but an open-air battle platform.
Looking around, the vast land is all within sight.
Lin Hao discovered that he was now in the middle area of the pyramid, like halfway up a mountain.
There is a suspended fighting platform at regular intervals around.
If the positions are not all on parallel lines, then there are mismatches up and down.
Judging from the range, if you go around a circle, there are exactly twenty battle platforms, corresponding to the top twenty contestants.
"Each person has a battle platform, how do we fight?"
Lin Hao looked around and couldn't help feeling a little confused.
Next, figures appeared one after another on the surrounding battle platforms.
After a brief moment of joy, everyone obviously realized what was happening and became puzzled.
Time passes by every second.
The contestants from the twenty battle platforms finally gathered together.
"First of all, congratulations to everyone on being promoted to the top 20 list."
Immediately afterwards, a calm and indifferent voice suddenly sounded from the void.
Lin Hao was not unfamiliar with this voice. It was the silver-haired man in charge of this year's Hundred Colleges Competition, Wei Ping.
"In order to ensure fairness and justice, the following competition will also be conducted in a random selection mode."
"Whether the opponent you meet is strong or weak depends on your luck."
The silver-haired man's calm voice echoed in the ears of the twenty contestants.
"I'd like to take this opportunity to repeat that although ranking is important, the Palace Sect does not select talents based on ranking. We mainly look at their performance in battle."
"The competition for the top ten begins now."
The silver-haired man's voice suddenly stopped.
“Buzz——!”
Suddenly, a burst of rune light rang out from the twenty battle platforms.
Then, it began to move slowly like a machine, making a heavy sound.
A hint of surprise flashed across Lin Hao's eyes.
As he moved, he also saw the contestants on other stages.
Those people were both men and women.
Each of them has a powerful aura and those who can make it all the way here are definitely not ordinary people.
"Boss! I'm here!!"
At this moment, Qin Yu's voice suddenly came from the side.
"Second brother."
Lin Hao looked in the direction of the voice, and saw Qin Yu on a slightly higher platform on the left, waving at him with ecstasy on his face.
"Boss!"
"Boss, I'm here too!"
As the battle stage turned, Raymond and Gu Yunle also appeared in Lin Hao's sight.
Seeing this, Lin Hao was secretly happy in his heart, but his face couldn't help but look a little strange.
Because of this random screening, there is almost a one-fifth probability that the four brothers will be assigned together.
By then, fighting between brothers in order to advance on the ranking list will be inevitable.
As Lin Hao changed his mind, the smiles on Qin Yu and the other three people's faces slowly stiffened, as if they had also realized this.
All of a sudden, all the previous joy disappeared.
They couldn't help but pray secretly in their hearts that even if the meeting was unavoidable, they would try not to run into each other at this time.
It would be more meaningful if at least four of them could make it into the top ten at the same time.
Just like that, the twenty battle platforms rotated from slow to fast.
After going around twice, it started to slow down from being fast.
Obviously, the allocated time has arrived.
As the two battle platforms where Lin Hao and Qin Yu were located slowly rotated, they were quietly approaching each other.
“No…I guess so!”
Seeing this, Qin Yu's pupils shook violently.
Lin Hao sighed in his heart, then looked at Qin Yu with a faint smile.
“Crunch!”
However, just as the two were preparing for a fight, there was a sudden vibration from the axle of the fighting platform.
Immediately afterwards, the two battle platforms that were about to approach each other were offset up and down, and slowly passed by each other.
"praise!"
Qin Yu's slightly tense expression suddenly relaxed and he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Lin Hao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw that the contestant next to him on the battlefield was from Wuling Academy.
On Qin Yu's side, the opponent he encountered was also from Wuling Academy!
