Chapter 156 I Challenge Danxiang Pavilion
No, isn’t Junior Sister’s weapon a mace? How come she suddenly became a swordsman?
"Junior sister, are you good at swordsmanship? Or you can use talismans. You have a better chance of winning with talismans."
"Don't worry, I'm also very good with a sword."
Bai Luochen looked at his junior sister and wrote the word "sword cultivator" on the registration booklet.
The next step was to draw lots. Zhong Linger ran over to draw the lot and unexpectedly drew Wuji Sect.
Gu Yanze slapped his forehead, feeling that he was extremely unlucky. He was thinking of giving up directly to preserve his strength for the next challenge.
Zhong Ling'er felt that she was extremely lucky. She was a person who liked challenges, and it was very good that she could give this advantage to her ally.
Then everyone began to prepare for the match. Xiao Haotian walked up to Zhong Ling'er and whispered, "Junior sister, be careful if you encounter people from Danxiang Pavilion and Tianyu Sect. Ji Bochao and Li Senting will choose to fight you."
Zhong Ling'er smiled. Although competitions were not allowed to hurt people's lives, there were many people who were beaten to death or disabled in every competition. If someone wanted to kill her, it would be a good opportunity to do so on the ring. She had already expected this.
Zhong Ling'er didn't care much about the competition. She was thinking about going to the Tianyun Battlefield. Unfortunately, when she searched the forum for information about the Tianyun Battlefield, she didn't get much information.
She wanted to find people who had come out of the Tianyun Battlefield to ask about the situation inside, so she focused on looking for people who had come out of the Tianyun Battlefield alive in the past few thousand years, but the information she collected was very intriguing.
Almost everyone who went in died inside, and not many people came out, but they all had one thing in common, they were either from the Tianji Pavilion, or they eventually became the elders of the Tianji Pavilion. But if we count the people who went in, all of them were rare geniuses of the time.
The geniuses from other forces keep dying, and those who survive are all from the Tianji Pavilion. This is a bit scary. After so many years, haven't other forces discovered this?
Her intuition told her that something bad was going on, so she had to speed up and rescue her senior brother as soon as possible.
Zhong Ling'er had been very tired recently and fell asleep on Second Brother's lap without realizing it. When she was woken up, it was already their turn.
After inquiring about the situation, it was found out that the first batch of winning teams were Feixing Sect, Danxiang Pavilion, Wanluo Sect, Tianyu Sect, and Fengming Sect. Zhong Linger glanced at Danxiang Pavilion and Tianyu Sect, chuckled, and then came to the stage.
Bai Luochen and Gu Yanze discussed the candidates for the battle, usually each sect would take turns proposing one at a time. Gu Yanze said directly: "Let Junior Sister arrange it. We have no objection."
Zhong Linger smiled, "That's easy, you fight my second senior brother, Senior Brother Liu fights my third senior brother, and so on, how fair it is."
Everyone had no objection, so the competition began.
Such a simple arrangement was beyond everyone's expectations. Zhong Ling'er was not acting weird at all. She was so well-behaved and honest. This was totally not her style. There must be a conspiracy!
The result was as everyone expected. Bai Luochen in the Jindan stage lost to Gu Yanze in the Nascent Soul stage; Zhou Yizhuo in the Nascent Soul stage won against Liu Bin in the peak Jindan stage; Yu Chengpeng won against Fu Xiu Mengyan; Qi Haoran in the early Jindan stage lost to Meng Lingjun in the seventh Jindan stage; Zhong Ling'er in the first Jindan stage lost to Feng Zeyang in the fourth Jindan stage.
So, 2 to 3, Taiqiong Sect actually lost in the first round. This surprised many people and felt it was unbelievable. How could Taiqiong Sect actually lose?
"This result is too normal, but why does it always feel so normal?"
"Yes, but I can't tell what's wrong. What does Taiqiong Sect want to do? What big move is it holding back?"
"The key is Junior Sister. She was sleeping just now. Was she trying to paralyze her opponent, or has she already given up on this match? After all, they are already in first place!"
"Alas, without Junior Sister's help, the match feels mediocre and boring!"
The Wuji Sect, which won the game, also felt incredible. Why did they win for no apparent reason? How could they win just like that?!
Ji Bochao and Li Senting discussed for a long time but still couldn't figure out what Zhong Ling'er was going to do. This was definitely not her style. They suspected that Taiqiong Sect was letting them win, but Zhong Ling'er's arrangement was also very reasonable. The opponents were of similar strength and they fought very seriously, so there was really no fault to be found.
The second round of competitions also ended in the afternoon. The winners were Wuji Sect, Lingjian Sect, Huiying Valley, Lingxi Valley, Zixiao Sect, and Qingshuang Sect.
Of the original twelve major sects, only the Taiqiong Sect, which had always been in the lead, failed to make the list!
Then it was time for the challenge. Everyone's eyes were on the Taiqiong Sect. After all, other sects had little chance of succeeding in the challenge. Only the Taiqiong Sect could make it out of the top eleven.
The Lingxi Valley was the most uncertain. They had no friendship with the Taiqiong Sect, and were weaker than the five major sects. It would be easiest to squeeze them out without offending anyone, so they probably couldn't escape.
The previous sects all failed in their challenges. When it was the turn of Taiqiong Sect, Zhong Linger pointed her finger at Danxiang Pavilion and her crisp voice echoed throughout the venue, "Danxiang Pavilion, I, Taiqiong Sect, challenge Danxiang Pavilion."
The whole audience was in an uproar and many people stood up.
"Did I hear correctly? What is Junior Sister thinking? Why did she pick the most difficult bone to chew?"
"Danxiang Pavilion has two Nascent Souls. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be the first in this match. She actually challenged them. She will definitely lose."
"Junior sister, what's wrong with your brain? Lingxi Valley has ready-made targets. Choosing them will make you feel better, won't offend anyone, and will ensure a win. What are you thinking?"
"Junior sister, you are not getting too proud, are you? Just because you were first in the first four games doesn't mean you will be first in this one as well. Are you giving up on this game?"
"I was saying that Junior Sister couldn't be so honest and do nothing. If she wants to do something, she must do something big. I understand her thinking now. She will do it even if there are no difficulties. She will create difficulties and go ahead."
Amid the discussions of the crowd, the two teams had already stood on the stage.
Since it was the Taiqiong Sect that initiated the challenge, it would be natural for the Taiqiong Sect to choose the opponent first.
In the first round, the strongest person in the team usually steps forward. If you are confident, you will choose the strongest person in the other team to break the opponent's morale. If you are not sure, you will choose the weaker one to win the first round.
In short, we must win the first game, whether it is to stabilize the morale of the troops or to suppress the opponent's momentum. In short, this first game is very crucial.
When many people were wondering who Zhou Yizhuo would choose, the first person to step forward was Zhong Ling'er.
No one could understand what this was until Zhong Ling'er pointed at Ji Bochao, and then everyone realized.
Danxiang Pavilion has two Nascent Souls while Taiqiong Sect only has one, so naturally one of the battles is doomed to be lost. In this case, it is undoubtedly the wisest approach for Zhong Ling'er, the weakest, to take out the opponent's most powerful Ji Bochao.
