Everyone saw that the Great Elder and Elder Xue were whispering to each other, as if they were discussing something.
"Historically, the inner disciples have been in charge of the great elder. As the great elder's younger brother, Elder Xue has always been the one who single-handedly leads the final assessment of the inner disciples."
The voice of second senior brother Xu Feng rang in my ears.
Li Ye nodded. In any sect, there is always a struggle for power.
Just like today's Tianjian Sect, the relationship between the three main peaks seems to be harmonious, but in fact the relationship has long been irreconcilable.
"In the Tianjian Sect, there is no hierarchy between the elders and the three major sword halls. Among them, the elders are respected by the great elders. However, in recent years, most of the elders are obviously controlled by the great elders, but many people have their own origins.
The sword hall."
Any one of the inner sect elders is at least a strong person in the ninth level of Xiantian realm, but they are from the three major sword halls.
"The Great Elder wants to find and cultivate his cronies among the inner disciples."
Second senior brother Xu Feng did not say this clearly. Li Ye also did not point it out. Even many people knew all this but no one could tell it.
"This is a balance. Neither the Great Elder nor the three major sword halls will openly quarrel with each other. After all, once that happens, the entire Tianjian Sect will fall apart. By then, the nine major sects may evolve into eight
Big sect.”
This is a world where the weak eat the strong. Li Ye believes that once it becomes like that, the other eight sects will invade like wolves and tigers in front of Tianjian Sect.
"The Great Elder, the three major sword halls are equivalent to the four major forces in the Tianjian Sect. Everyone wants to obtain the best qualified disciples to increase their strength and increase their influence within the sect."
Hearing the sarcastic voice of the second senior brother, Li Ye suddenly realized, "The real purpose behind the so-called disciple assessment?"
The disciple assessment in front of him is actually a method for selecting outstanding disciples among the four major forces of Tianjian Sect. Of course, it must involve more interest disputes, which Li Ye is not aware of for the time being.
"The Great Elder and the Three Great Sword Halls? If Hidden Sword Peak had not fallen, the entire Tianjian Sect should have been divided into five major forces."
After analyzing it secretly in his mind, Li Ye shook his head.
He is not interested in the goals of these so-called four major forces. He has only one goal now, to win the first place among the inner disciples, and then make his request to the sect.
"Even if Lieyang cannot be freed, at least we must get a chance to see him!"
After a while, the Great Elder and Elder Xue finally agreed on something.
Elder Xue was seen landing in the center of the life and death stage, his majestic eyes scanning Li Ye and the other ten people.
"The ten of you will fight against the other nine one by one. A win will get one point, and a defeat will get zero points. The person with the highest score in the end will be the first inner disciple in this assessment! The rest will be based on their scores.
Ranking!"
Fight one by one?
After everyone heard this, they were not too surprised.
"This is very fair. There is no luck or chance, but a real comparison of one's own strength."
If it is a knockout round, it is easy for two tigers to compete and be eliminated early.
After hearing this decision, some people were happy and some were worried.
"I dare to ask the elders, if the points are the same, who ranks higher?"
Someone asked, it was Xiao Ya, the only female disciple among the ten.
Everyone has a strange mentality towards this woman who can reach the top ten in the martial arts world dominated by men.
Li Ye looked over and saw that Xiao Ya did not have a stunning appearance. She could not match the peerless appearance of Shao Yueling, the goddess-level dream lover recognized by Tianjian Sect, but she had a pure and delicate temperament like the girl next door.
To be fair, Xiao Ya is definitely a rare beauty. If she were placed on the earth in her previous life, she would be able to instantly kill those so-called jade girl masters, and she is several times better than the beauties created by the same people from a certain country.
Unfortunately, perhaps the men of the Tianjian Sect were attracted by Shao Yueling's beauty, which overshadowed many of the female disciples.
At this time, many talents discovered that besides goddesses, there were actually many young talents waiting for them to discover.
"Two people with the same points will be ranked first based on their victory or defeat."
That's it, Li Ye nodded.
Each of the top ten players will have a match with the other nine. Although it is unlikely that the points will be the same, once it happens, it is fair to determine the ranking based on the outcome of the two matches.
But Li Ye suddenly discovered a serious problem.
"A battle with the other nine people each seems fair, but there is also a certain amount of luck involved."
The brows are deeply furrowed, which is not difficult to explain.
The simplest example is that there is a gap in strength between ten people. The stronger one will easily win against the weaker one, while the losing side may be unlucky and may get injured, which will affect the next duel, or even a vicious cycle.
"May I ask the elder if you can admit defeat?"
Li Ye looked in surprise and saw that the person who spoke was none other than Ling Feng, who had fought hard to reach the top ten before.
His question made many people's expressions change slightly.
"Okay!" Elder Xue nodded, as if he had expected such a question.
"Only a coward would admit defeat!" Luo Tianxia sneered with disdain on his face.
Unfortunately, the rest of the people simply ignored him.
If there is one person among so many people that everyone dislikes, Luo Tianxia will undoubtedly bear the brunt of it.
Li Ye and Xu Feng were closest to each other and said with some worry, "Second Senior Brother, this kind of rule is a little disadvantageous to you."
Everyone knows that among the ten people, Ling Feng and Xu Feng are in the worst situation.
Ling Feng has not recovered after the battle just now, so it is considered good to have six or seven achievements in combat power. And Xu Feng, who was ranked second in the last Earth Ranking, has now lost an arm, so his strength must have been weakened.
Sure enough, Zheng Shui and others glanced at the two of them coldly.
"It seems that the two of them are recognized by the others as the ones who can win a victory."
Although they knew in their hearts that this was a fact, both Ling Feng and second senior brother Xu Feng snorted slightly in their hearts.
Especially Xu Feng, as he was second in the last ranking, he has his own pride!
"The person who was temporarily ranked first will first decide the opponent for the first battle."
As soon as Elder Xue finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on Li Ye. At this time, many talents realized that the one who seemed to be ranked first for the time being was not Zheng Shui, who was the first in the previous session, nor was it the famous Luo Tianxia and others.
The genius was Li Ye, a young man who appeared from nowhere.
