175 The most handsome stage pillar
Chapter 175
Bai Qiaomo stood up and walked down from the stands. Feng Ming followed him excitedly. After choosing and choosing, the champions he picked were all very nervous.
If he was chosen, would he fight or give up the stage voluntarily? It was really hard to decide.
Feng Ming was very kind and chose a champion who still had a chance to challenge, and let Bai Qiaomo go up to challenge him. Even if the champion was knocked off the stage, he still had a chance to win the championship.
Understanding Feng Ming's meaning, the other party no longer had the idea of fighting. Just like before, he voluntarily gave up the stage.
When Bai Qiaomo stood on the stage, Zong Yupao also nodded to him, and Bai Qiaomo bowed in return. They were very polite to each other.
Others could also see that Bai Qiaomo won the respect of Zong Yupao and Wu Liyan on the first day of the ring battle. Otherwise, with their pride, how could they pay attention to those who were not as good as them.
"Haha, since you are all on, I won't wait any longer. Count me in."
"Me too."
Several late-stage Yuanye Realm contestants with the same cultivation level as Bai Qiaomo chose a ring and jumped on it.
Some of them gave up voluntarily, while others thought they could still give it a try, maybe they could challenge higher-level opponents.
So some of the rings started fighting, while others were very quiet, with only the ring master either crossing his arms or with his hands behind his back, watching the fights going on in other rings.
No one challenged Zong Yupao, and no one challenged Wu Liyan either. When the challenges on other stages were over, no one challenged Bai Qiaomo to take his place as the champion.
Compared to the dozens of challengers on the first day, he was so lonely at this moment.
Feng Ming was also a little bored. He looked left and right and saw Ji Yuan and Qiu Yi, so he took the initiative to walk towards them.
Seeing the two people coming over, Ji Yuan nodded.
Qiu Yi's impression of Bai Qiaomo improved a lot because of his past experience with him, and he decided not to dislike him so much.
Seeing Feng Ming coming over, he took the initiative to greet him, completely forgetting Ji Yuan's instructions to him.
Seeing Qiu Yi take the initiative to greet him, Ji Yuan secretly thought that he was doomed.
"Fellow Daoist Qiu, Fellow Daoist Ji, how are you all ?"
Ji Yuan thought to himself. He was fine before he met him, but not so fine after he met him.
But he couldn't say what was in his heart. Ji Yuan said warmly, "Fellow Daoist Feng is fine too. Are
you bored?" "That's right. Look at how fierce the fights were on the first and second days. What about now? Are we just expected to watch as pillars?"
Ji Yuan was alert, but he was almost amused by Feng Ming's description.
Look at the Zong Yupao people on the stage. Aren't they just pillars on the stage for people to watch?
"Are you including Fellow Daoist Bai?"
Feng Ming shook his head proudly and said, "Even if Brother Bai is a pillar, he is still the most handsome pillar."
Shameless Shuang'er, Ji Yuan secretly complained.
Qiu Yi clenched his fist and argued, "It is obvious
that Senior Brother Zong is more handsome." "My Senior Brother Bai is the most handsome."
"Senior Brother Zong is more handsome."
Ji Yuan covered his face. Are these two children quarreling? Do you have to be so childish?
Wu Liyan on the stage said, "What are you two arguing about? I am the most handsome."
Feng Ming turned his head and compared them seriously, then said, "You are just a little bit worse than my Senior Brother Bai."
He also gestured with his fingers, which made Wu Liyan laugh.
Feng Ming also likes Wu Liyan's bold and energetic personality.
As a result, until the end of the day, no one came to challenge the three rings of Zong Yupao, Wu Liyan and Bai Qiaomo.
They have been standing on the stage, and even Wu Liyan herself felt a little bored.
Not everyone thinks that Bai Qiaomo ranks third in strength, because the players who are qualified to fight him are also guarding other rings.
How could they not guard their own rings and come to fight Bai Qiaomo? Anyway, they have to fight in the finals.
So after the ring battle that day, these people successfully advanced.
Some people thought they understood: "No wonder these seeded players will defend the ring on the last day. If they go on stage on the first or second day, what's the point of the ring battle? Just watching them stand there stupidly?"
"Apart from this reason, isn't it the result of those guys from the Royal Academy? Everyone is on guard against others using the same method to deliberately create a wheel battle, force others off the stage, and lose the qualification for the finals. And even if there are forces who want to use a wheel battle, they are embarrassed to do it again, because the guys on the first day went too far. No one wants to be compared with them, and it will ruin their reputation."
"It turns out that the approach of that guy has such benefits."
"That's Bai Qiaomo. If it's someone else, let's see if they can hold on. Just think about it, there are top-grade elixirs and a mid-grade Qingyuan Pearl. How many good things have been consumed in this ring battle?"
"Don't worry about not having anything to watch. The finals starting tomorrow will be even more interesting. It's a battle between real masters."
After the ring battle, some people really went to the twelve betting sites to watch. Bai Qiaomo's odds of winning the championship really became 1 to 5. On the contrary, his odds of winning the third place became 1 to 1.2. It seems that everyone is more optimistic about him winning the third place.
The top seeded player to win the championship is still Zong Yupao. Unless Wu Liyan has recently learned some new powerful martial arts, or her strength has increased significantly in a short period of time, otherwise, no one is optimistic that she can beat Zong Yupao.
***
The final day finally arrived. When everyone arrived at the arena, they found that of the twenty arenas, only the middle ten were left, which was more convenient for the spectators in the stands to watch.
After all the players entered, the chief referee spoke a few words and then announced the rules of the next competition. The sixty players who entered the final drew their own numbers, and then drew lots to determine their opponents. Two by two, they went to the arena to decide the winner. The winner entered the next round of the competition until the final battle for the championship and runner-up.
Bai Qiaomo went on stage to receive his number, number seven, which Feng Ming thought was a pretty good number. Bai Qiaomo
smiled, and estimated that no matter which number he received, Feng Ming would be able to pick out nice words to say.
The opponent he drew was number 38. When he was looking for his opponent, number 38 also looked over at him, and the two looked at each other.
After the opponent found out that it was Bai Qiaomo, he smiled bitterly, and it was obvious that he didn't have much confidence in defeating Bai Qiaomo.
Because Bai Qiaomo's number was in the front, it was his turn to go on stage in the first round. Players from number one to ten went on stage to compete with their opponents.
Feng Ming immediately rushed to the No. 5 stage where Bai Qiaomo was going to go, to cheer for him.
His opponent took a deep breath and then walked slowly towards the stage.
The opponent's strength was in the middle stage of Yuanye Realm. The champion who emerged on the first day of the stage battle was not sure about challenging a higher level, especially challenging a player like Bai Qiaomo who already had the strength to challenge a higher level.
Before he went on stage, his senior patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Put down your burdens and fight well. You won't suffer any loss in a fight with Bai Qiaomo. Bai Qiaomo is also very measured in his attacks."
Even though on the first day, those dozens of people deliberately used wheel battles to consume Bai Qiaomo's combat power, he did not leave those people with irreparable injuries. He dealt with them neatly and quickly, and only the last person saw a little blood.
Therefore, when encountering such an opponent, cultivators from all forces have a good impression and feel at ease.
"Okay, I understand."
After the man came on stage, he greeted Bai Qiaomo very seriously and said, "Friend Bai, although I am not as strong as you, I will play this game seriously. Please give me more advice."
Bai Qiaomo said politely, "No problem, we will teach each other, please."
"Please."
Bai Qiaomo still held the long spear and did not give in just because he was one level higher than the opponent. He took the fight seriously. This is the real respect for the opponent, not just perfunctory. The
opponent was indeed unlucky. He used a pair of short blades, but Bai Qiaomo's long spear made it airtight. The opponent had no way to get close to Bai Qiaomo, and the advantages of the short blades could not be brought into play.
All that could be heard on the stage was the clanging sound of weapons colliding and clashing. After five minutes, the tip of the spear touched the opponent's throat.
The opponent did not show any sign of frustration. Instead, he felt that the five minutes of fighting were very satisfying. He also realized his own shortcomings and thanked Bai Qiaomo happily.
"In this match, No. 7 Bai Qiaomo will advance to the next round."
Everyone could see that the opponent and Bai Qiaomo were very different in strength, so the result of this battle was no surprise. It was normal for Bai Qiaomo to defeat the opponent within five minutes.
He did not reveal the trump card he had used against Xiong Kui, otherwise the opponent would not have been able to hold out for even a minute.
Bai Qiaomo returned to the stands with Fengming to watch other ring battles that had not yet ended.
There are contestants with huge differences in strength, such as Bai Qiaomo and contestant No. 38, and there are also contestants with similar strengths. It will be difficult to tell who is better in a short time on this stage.
Bai Qiaomo also watched carefully. He might fight one of them in the next round. As for Zong Yupao and Wu Liyan, they would not meet until the very end.
Unless someone made a move to eliminate one of them in advance.
But such a result did not appear, which shows that the draw this time was relatively fair.
After the first round of fighting ended and before the second round began, some spectators became excited.
Feng Ming certainly knew the reason, because in this round, Wu Liyan was on the stage, and Zong Yupao was ranked in the third round.
Maybe the referees also regarded Bai Qiaomo as the third runner-up and separated the three of them and arranged them in different rounds.
Feng Ming held his chin and said, "Oh, this girl is in her first fight since the league martial arts competition. Anyway, I haven't seen her fight before."
Bai Qiaomo smiled and said, "I've seen the photo stone of her fight before."
Feng Ming waved his hand, "That's different. It's not as good as watching the atmosphere on the scene."
Pei Yingmin and others were also watching Wu Liyan's fight seriously. They had never seen her fight so far, and they were quite wary of her strength.
Wu Liyan took out her weapon as soon as she came on stage. Although Feng Ming had seen it in the image of the photo stone before, he was still a little surprised when he saw her take out a heavyweight sword.
This girl is really tough and has more momentum than other male cultivators.
