Chapter 2065 Aren’t You Afraid at All?
Those who were defeated were almost all those with low cultivation. The few with low cultivation who managed to grab the number plates either had allies with good cultivation or were lucky enough.
Then, the contestants who grabbed the number plates went to register and prepare for the second round.
There was a number on the number plate. After they registered their names and numbers at the boarding counter, Bai Lingtian told them the rules of the second game.
"Everyone, the second game is to enter the misty forest. The task is to seize the magic crystals of the monsters. The time limit is eight hours. There are many monsters in the misty forest, and it is extremely dangerous. I hope you will take good care of the number plates on your body, because they are a transport talisman. Once you encounter danger in it, you can break the number plates in your hands, and then it will send you back. However, if you do so, it will be considered as automatic forfeiture, and even if you obtain the magic crystals before that, it will not count. Then when eight hours are up, the number plates will automatically shatter, and you will be automatically sent out. In the end, the ranking will be calculated based on the number and grade of the magic crystals. No matter what means you use, the result is the only thing that matters." Bai Lingtian said.
Regardless of the means, only the results are considered, which means that you can seize the fruits of other people's labor.
This may sound dishonest and shameless, but the reality is so cruel. If you don’t have the ability to protect your own things, then don’t you deserve to lose?
There are many magical beasts in the foggy forest. The existence of magical beasts is also harmful to the world of cultivation, so they hold a martial arts competition every three years to kill the magical beasts.
Magic crystals are crystals condensed in the bodies of magical beasts, but not all magical beasts have magic crystals. It depends on luck.
If you are lucky, you may encounter it easily. If you are unlucky, you may encounter dozens of monsters, but none of them have magic crystals.
However, they would have to kill the monster to know whether it had magic crystals, because they did not have X-ray vision and could not see through the monster's body.
Therefore, as long as there is a battle, they will consume time and physical strength. If they kill more than a dozen monsters without magic crystals, they can only consider themselves unlucky.
However, Gu Ning has the ability of X-ray vision, so he is not too worried about this problem.
Cultivators can also use magic crystals to practice, and the effect is no worse than elixirs, but the prerequisite is that the magic crystals are from high-grade monsters. Low-grade magic crystals are only useful to people with low cultivation. People with high cultivation will not be of much use using low-grade magic crystals.
Although there are many magical beasts in the Misty Forest, the spiritual energy is scarce now, and the speed of magical beast cultivation is very slow. Therefore, the grades of magical beasts in the Misty Forest are mostly low-level, with a few mid-level.
Even though it is of low to mid-level, it may not be easy to deal with for a cultivator of average level.
Moreover, for the sake of their own lives, they did not dare to go deep into the foggy forest.
There may be high-level monsters in the depths of the foggy forest, but they are very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be doomed.
Therefore, even if Baili Zongyang won the championship three years ago, he only obtained seven magic crystals, two fourth-level crystals, one third-level crystal, three second-level crystals, and one first-level crystal.
Dongfang Ziyu, who ranked second, obtained a total of one fourth-level, one third-level, three second-level and one first-level.
Although the top ten will be selected, they will be selected from those who obtain the magic crystal. If only seven people obtain the magic crystal, then only these seven people will get a ranking.
"Also, no fighting is allowed within one hour. Otherwise, it will be a foul."
After Bai Lingtian finished speaking, he started the registration process.
Leng Shaoting was number 52 and Gu Ning was number 56. The number plates were picked randomly, not in order, and they deliberately chose the ones at the back.
By registering in this way, it will be easier to record other things later.
After registering, everyone entered the transmission array together, and then disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
In just a moment, the scene in front of Gu Ning and the others changed. They were standing in a deep forest. The forest was filled with thick white fog, which created considerable obstacles for people to move forward.
Moreover, the foggy forest was eerie and mysterious, which made many people feel creepy, especially the timid ones, who all thought about leaving.
"Oh my god! This place is so spooky!"
"Yeah! It's really creepy."
“I have the urge to quit...”
“······”
Although some people said they had the urge to quit, it was just talk. They had managed to get to the second round of the competition, so they naturally could not quit easily.
At worst, if there is any danger later, I can just break the license plate and get out.
Some people have been here before, so they didn't feel anything too bad. However, because they had been here before and knew how dangerous this place was, they became more vigilant.
Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning came here for the first time, but they were not afraid or nervous at all. At most, they were just alert and cautious.
Wanqi Lin and Baili Zongxue were also afraid, but they never thought of retreating.
Dongfang Ziyu and the others also paid attention to Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning's reactions. Seeing how calm and relaxed they were, they couldn't help but raise their eyebrows and feel aggrieved.
Are they really not afraid or worried at all?
"Okay, time is running out, let's take action!"
Someone said this, and then everyone stopped talking and walked into the deep forest in a group.
Gu Ning, Leng Shaoting and Wanqi Lin formed a team. Baili Zongxue originally wanted to follow them, but she didn't say it in the end. The girl just saved her, and she couldn't just rely on her.
Therefore, Baili Zongxue left for another place with his allies.
Jing Yunyan, Dongfang Ziyu and others also walked in different directions with their allies.
At the beginning, they would not attack their opponents because fighting was not allowed within an hour, otherwise it would be a foul.
Moreover, they also need to rely on each other to kill monsters and seize magic crystals, and then they can take them for themselves.
Because the fog was thick in the deep forest, everyone was about seven or eight meters away and could not see each other. In addition, the air in the foggy forest was chaotic and the sounds were mixed, so it was not easy to sense each other's breath or hear footsteps.
"Senior Brother Qingfeng, Senior Sister Qinghe, aren't you afraid at all?" After getting away from everyone else, Wanqi Lin felt even more uneasy, but looking at Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning who were as calm as usual, he asked curiously.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Gu Ning said disapprovingly, "It's just killing the monsters and taking the magic crystals."
