Today's martial arts arena is probably the busiest day since its establishment, because the first ranking competition of the martial arts department will be held here.
The Department of Martial Arts has also specially scheduled all classes today so that more students can have time to witness this grand event.
For this overall ranking battle, in just three days, the martial arts hall was expanded nearly twice. Originally there were only three or five martial arts stages, which were directly expanded into ten, and the surrounding spectator seats were also re-opened.
A large circle was built. Instead of standing scattered beside the martial arts stage like before, a circle of seats was built around the martial arts stage to ensure that everyone could have a panoramic view of everything in the martial arts arena.
When Nie Yun came to the martial arts arena, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy when he saw the crowd that almost blocked the entire martial arts arena. Fortunately, the school had the foresight to arrange a dedicated passage for contestants in advance.
After passing through the long black corridor and exiting the end of the line of sight, the vision suddenly opened up.
The entire martial arts arena was surrounded by high stands, and Nie Yun and the others who came out of the corridor naturally attracted the attention of many people, making the already noisy martial arts arena even more noisy.
"Du He came out, ranked third in the Qianlong Ranking. He knocked down so many people with a black iron rod, I guess he has a chance to enter the overall ranking!" A student who has also been in school for two years said with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Nie Yun has also come out, and our young eagles are ranked second!" The first-year student said with a smile: "He is ranked second, but no one dares to challenge him."
"Have a rest. There are no tigers or monkeys in the mountains to dominate." Some students rolled their eyes and said bitterly: "The school just gave us some eaglets and Qianlong for us to play with. The overall list
forget it."
"Hey, if there hadn't been a senior student who had been in school for four years to stand up for you at the welcome party, how could it be just those guys? Can you hold Nie Yun down?" The student chuckled and said sarcastically: "I didn't remember.
If I'm wrong, Chen Dian, who lost to Nie Yun at the beginning, is also the best among the students who have been enrolled for three years."
"so what..."
The sound of discussions, cheers, boos, and arguments filled the entire martial arts arena, making Nie Yun, who had just walked out of the long and silent black corridor, feel dizzy for a moment. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and look at the dense crowds around the martial arts arena.
The crowd couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Why are there so many people here..."
The number of students enrolled in the Department of Martial Arts of the University Hall has never been large. For example, this year, due to the sudden reform, only forty-five people were recruited. However, it is a little less than in previous years. It is enough to recruit sixty or seventy people.
Up to the sky.
So even if all the students who have been enrolled for four years are here, there will only be more than 200 people at most. What's the matter with this crowded auditorium? There must be at least 500 or 600 people.
"Because people from the Department of Liberal Arts also came to join in the fun." A little fat man spread his hands and greeted Nie Yun.
Nie Yun also had a deep impression of this little fat guy. His name was Tang Yuan. He was in the same group during the entrance exam. How could he not remember that he had dislocated his jaw several times in a row? He is now ranked eighth on the young eagle list.
Hearing this, he nodded and responded with a smile: "That's right."
"Have you heard that those students who have been in school for three years have said that no one except them can get on the general list?" Seeing Nie Yun's reply, Tang Yuan ignored Nie Yun's reply and whispered in his ear: "They also said that we should be honest
Just play on the Young Eagle and Hidden Dragon lists."
"

Oh?" Nie Yun was slightly stunned, and looked at the fat Tang Yuan with a half-smile: "I've never heard of this, and if he doesn't tell us, we won't do it."
"Although I don't want to admit it, it is indeed difficult for us to get on the list." Tang Yuan shrugged and said helplessly: "Students who have been in school for three years have at least broken through the Sixth Meridian, and the more powerful ones have even broken through the Du Meridian.
, I took a look and the number one on the Hidden Dragon Ranking is only at the level of the Five Meridians. It’s really hard to say if I want to be on the overall ranking.”
"Then why you came here to compete..." Nie Yun touched his chin and asked with a smile, "Will you be beaten?"
"I'm here to give you some insights. Let's face it, we are also the ones who have competed for the overall ranking." Tang Yuan patted his chest and smiled, "You are the only one among us who can do it."
There is a slight chance that you will be on the list. I guess even though you are also a five-meridian cultivator, you still have a chance of being on the overall list with the addition of Ji Duan Canglan."
"Five meridians..." Nie Yun smiled slightly and did not explain anything. Anyway, he would naturally know it by then. He then joked and said: "By the way, how is your chin..."
"..." The corner of Tang Yuan's mouth twitched slightly, but it was not noticeable under the cover of thick fat.
...
"Dang~"
When the dazzling group of lights hung high above the head, the thick chime of the bell finally sounded, and as the bell rang, the noisy auditorium became slightly quiet, and countless eyes followed the bell.
Towards the central martial arts stage.
And in the center of the martial arts arena, the vice-dean stood facing the wind, his black robes rustling, looking around. With his calm and calm expression, he looked like a Confucian general with a feather fan and turban.
"Pfft." Nie Yun in the audience secretly laughed. Looking at that figure, he unconsciously imagined the deputy dean holding a mace in his hand. It was indescribably weird and interesting.
.
The vice-dean glanced lightly, as if he didn't see it. A powerful voice, like muffled thunder, circled in the air in the martial arts field, so that everyone could clearly hear: "Today, it is the martial arts department of our university hall.
This is the first time that our department has held an overall ranking competition, and I don’t need to say more about what the overall ranking means, so let’s do our best.”
The vice-dean's opening remarks were a bit concise, even a bit sloppy, but this still did not hinder the excitement of the students. Regardless of the huge rewards on the general list, the "Yuelu University Hall General List" itself is a gold-lettered sign!
The eyes of those students who are already on the Young Eagle or Qianlong list are hot, hoping to be on both lists at the same time. The eyes of students who have been in school for three years are even more fierce. They have long watched the students who have been in school for one or two years compete for the Young Eagle.
, the second place in Qianlong's ranking is hot, and now it is their turn. Although they are not the only ones to participate in this general ranking, in their view, those students who have only been in school for one or two years are just going through the motions and are destined to accompany them.
The vice-dean paused for a moment, and then his powerful voice sounded again: "There are seventy-two challengers in this general ranking competition. They adopt the mode of two-by-two challenge for promotion. Please take a look at the number plate in your hand. The number
The one with the number one challenges the one with the number seventy-two, and so on."
After hearing what the vice president said, the contestants present were slightly startled and looked at the number plates in their hands.
"I'm going, I'm late in line, so I'll be the first to get in this time." Tang Yuan looked at the number sixty-eight on the mahogany talisman in his hand and said with his forehead.
because
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The martial arts arena has been temporarily expanded to include ten martial arts stages, which can accommodate twenty people competing at the same time, so the ten in front and the ten in the back are naturally the first to take the stage.
"Haha, I am number 58, so it will be my turn in the next batch." Nie Yun touched his chin, frowned slightly and said: "I guess the school plans to eliminate most of the students in the first round.
student of the year.”
"Ah? How do you say this?" Tang Yuan was slightly startled, looked at the talisman in his hand and said, "I was still thinking about whether I could survive one more round. It would also give me some face to say it out."
"I went early enough, and it was only the 58th. I guess the number plates were issued to candidates who have been enrolled for three years before they were issued to us." Nie Yun spread his hands and continued: "Let the number plates in front of the
Those behind the challenge number plate are just to eliminate a wave of them for us first."
In fact, there is no other way for the school to do this. Due to the lack of experience in holding such large-scale competitions, the competition system is relatively simple and rough. There is no complicated points mode, but the most primitive two-to-one mode is adopted. In order to try as much as possible
To avoid the situation where one of the two strong students has to be eliminated in the first round, we can simply use the strong against the weak and eliminate the relatively weak students who have been in school for one or two years.
"No wonder those guys are so arrogant. I also thought that if we are lucky enough with this competition system, among the students who have been enrolled for one or two years, we can rank tenth in the overall rankings." Tang Yuan sighed helplessly,
He turned around and patted Nie Yun's shoulder without noticing anything. He said with a hint of seriousness in his big eyes: "Young man, it seems that you are the chosen one, the light of the young eagle!"
"What the hell!" Nie Yun waved his hand in disgust: "Hurry up and get ready, the game is about to start."
"What are you preparing for? You have already prepared what you need to prepare." The seriousness on Tang Yuan's face disappeared instantly and he smiled: "Why don't you get nervous before going on stage? Relax."
As soon as Tang Yuan finished speaking, he heard the powerful voice of the deputy dean again:
"Then please invite those with numbers from one to ten and sixty-two to seventy-two to go to the corresponding martial arts stage respectively. Anyone who is ten minutes late will be deemed to have given up."
"Now I announce..." The vice-dean raised his arm slightly, and rang the big bell in the center again under everyone's gaze: "The first general ranking competition of the Department of Martial Arts of Yuelu University Hall is official.
start."
"clang!"
As the bell chimed softly, in the originally quiet venue, there was a roar, and powerful qi machines surged out. The ferocious qi machines rushed across the venue, bringing up gusts of strong wind, which made some people feel uncomfortable.
The students with insufficient cultivation swayed and stood on their respective martial arts stages in an instant.
I saw ten different figures on the ten martial arts stages, all standing in the wind with their hands behind their backs, dressed in robes, and a disdainful voice sounded: "Which juniors and juniors are here to give me advice?"
Nie Yun frowned slightly. Although those strong winds could not do anything to him, the meaning revealed in them was very obvious.
"Those rumors are indeed not groundless. This slightly domineering way of appearing is a threat to all students who have been enrolled for one or two years!" Nie Yun thought to himself.
Nie Yun imagined it, and other players could naturally imagine that this was obviously not the personal behavior of one or two people. Ten people showed up in such a uniform manner, and it was obviously an organized and planned attack on all of them!
