155: C155 In the Second Round He Encountered Shen Tiannan

C155 In the Second Round He Encountered Shen Tiannan

Nie Zhen was not the first to win in the first round. There were many matches, and someone was forcefully swept off the stage in the first few rounds.

After all, some opponents had a huge gap between each other, and not everyone was like Nie Zhen who had the right to hold back. When they entered the arena, they had to use all their strength, or else it was very likely that they would give the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of them.

It was also because of this that besides Nie Zhen, almost all the thirty-one battles were fought intensely. In comparison, Nie Zhen's battle made people feel depressed.

Nie Zhen slowly walked off the stage with a smile on his face. He did not look at the other competitions. To him, the 64 competitors among the core disciples posed no threat at all.

The ones he was truly interested in were the core disciples that would only participate in the second round. To be more precise, the top ranked core disciples.

Nie Zhen, who walked off the stage, coincidentally saw Soong Dong'er walking over with a smile on her face and said, "Junior Brother Nie, congratulations."

"Senior Sister Soong? There's no match for you guys today, are you here as well? " Nie Zhen looked at Soong Dong'er doubtfully and asked.

"Hee hee... Do you think I, First Senior Sister, am so easy to be? Of course, we should be concerned about the results of your junior brothers. In the first round, including you, there were nine junior brothers participating in the competition, and five of them, including you, have entered the second round.

It could be seen that Soong Dong'er was in a good mood. For the fourteen core disciples to make it into the second round, their result was already better than last year's.

Because there weren't 32 strongest disciples participating in the first round, the match between the seeded contestants was somewhat dull. Whether it was the brilliance or the suspense, no one was particularly looking forward to it.

The only thing that everyone was curious about was whether the three competitors who advanced from Advanced to Core Disciple would be able to achieve such surprising results.

It was a pity that other than Nie Zhen, the champion of the Advanced Student Exam, the other two people had all been eliminated in the first round.

Even if you are one of the top senior disciples, once you are placed in an even more powerful area, you will still be unable to avoid the fate of being at the bottom.

Of course, Nie Zhen was an exception, because he was a evildoer with six perfect points, a character destined to become a legend of Duobao Sect.

Before the battle with the core disciples, many people were discussing how much performance this Nie Zhen could have. After all, you had only entered the Duobao Sect for less than a year, and had climbed up from it, so how enchanting could Nie Zhen be?

Although it was rumored that Sun Steelace had cut down Devil Stone Sect Cai Saangzi and Emperor Shen Yong, after all, they were not geniuses born in a large clan like Duobao Sect. No one knew how strong they actually were.

Nie Zhen's performance in the first round could only be considered mediocre. There was nothing special about him. At least, from the eyes of those disciples, he was not considered as brilliant.

After all, people like Bo Yan, were definitely not very strong amongst the Duobao Sect's core disciples. Nie Zhen actually took such a long time to deal with Bo Yan, and from this, it could be seen that Nie Zhen's strength was not as strong as in the legends.

However, a person with a truly unique eye would definitely not think this way if he were to pay attention to Nie Zhen's match.

Especially Duan Rong, he and Great Sect Master were all watching the fight from a high vantage point. They had seen all thirty-two fights in the audience. His gaze stayed on the other disciples for as long as he could, unlike Nie Zhen.

Compared to the guesses of the outside world regarding Nie Zhen's strength, Duan Rong was very satisfied with Nie Zhen and even felt slightly gratified. He saw a difference in Nie Zhen.

Previously, Nie Zhen had killed Cai Saangzi and slaughtered Yihren Country. During the annual examination, he had been the leader of the crowd and had shown off his abilities.

And today, Duan Rong saw Nie Zhen's low-key side.

Without a doubt, the first round of battle was definitely not Nie Zhen's real strength. Duan Rong knew this better than anyone, Nie Zhen was definitely hiding his real strength.

This was what made Duan Rong very pleased. He felt that Nie Zhen had become more mature than before.

It might not be a good thing if Nie Zhen defeated his opponent with his strongest attack.

His peak state was revealed too early, and the momentum he had built up in one go was gone. In the future, if he wanted to return to peak state, he would have to adjust again.

Through battle, one step at a time would bring one's condition to its peak. This meant that it was very likely that one would be able to maintain their condition until the end.

In the first round of the fight, Wu Great Sect Master's extraordinary status was revealed. Under the tutelage of Wu Great Sect Master, three to four core disciples were eliminated, but the rest of the elders' disciples were mostly eliminated.

There were only four or five people in the second round who had entered under the tutelage of the elders.

As for whether these four or five people would be able to make it through the second round, it was unknown.

From this, it could be seen the difference between Great Sect Master and the elders within the Duobao Sect.

The first round of the competition was over. There was a day of rest in between, and it was the same for every round. After the first round ended, there was a day of rest, and then the second round would begin.

Nie Zhen did not waste that day of rest as he quietly cultivated. However, he still felt that the distance between him and the third level of the Sky Realm was getting closer and closer.

The second round of the competition had finally arrived.

Now, the thirty-two disciples who had been eliminated in the first round had completely concluded their historic mission. Their rankings had also already been announced by now, and the current them, like the Duobao Sect disciples who were spectating ahead of them, were all reduced to bystanders.

And today's main character was one of the top 64 core disciples on the stage.

This time, according to the rules of the Duobao Sect annual examination, whether it was the top thirty-two rankers or the previous core disciples who had participated in the first round, no one had any privileges anymore.

But this round there was another measure, and that was the top 16 core disciples. In order to prevent them from encountering each other in advance, when they were drawing the lots, those 16 core disciples' lots were not messed up, but were placed in a separate small box. As for the other 48 core disciples' lots, they were placed in the original box.

In order to prevent them from encountering it too early, for the second round, we will draw a core disciple who is ranked in the top sixteen on one side, and for this second round of drawing, we will let this core disciple come up on stage to draw his opponent in the wooden box. After all sixteen core disciples have drawn their lots, it will be the same as the first round, the other thirty-two people will draw two lots, and fight each other to the death. "

Your results are completely related to your own luck. If someone is unlucky enough to be selected by the top 16 core disciples, then you can wish for good fortune and fortune to win. Especially those five people who are ranked in the top five, they are not on the same level as the others.

Even if your strength is on the strong list, even if you're ranked 17th, it's useless. In front of those five experts in the top five, the gap between you and them is too obvious.

Not to mention First Senior Brother and Qin Wuyan, even the disciples like Soong Dong'er couldn't compare to him.

At the start of the second round, besides the top 16 core disciples who had calm expressions, the other core disciples all had very serious expressions. No one wished to meet them in the second round.

Out of the forty-eight participants, the chances of getting drawn wasn't high nor was it low. The chances of it happening were basically one-third.

Nie Zhen himself was very calm. From his point of view, since he couldn't cheat in drawing lots, then it was unnecessary to worry too much. Not to mention, with his strength, he didn't need to worry at all.

According to the rules, the first person to draw out the top 16 core disciples was Fifth Sect Master. The first person he drew out was Duan Rong's bloodline disciple Yin Nian. He was ranked eighth in the last year and his strength was quite impressive.

Fifth Sect Master looked at Yin Nian and said, "Yin Nian, come up and pick your opponent yourself."

Yin Nian accepted the order and slowly walked up the stage. He reached his hand into the wooden box to pick his opponent, and the core disciples in front of him all had their hearts in their throats as they prayed in their hearts, "Don't pick me … "Don't pick me..."

Yin Nian walked onto the stage and casually pulled out the lot. He opened the paper and took a look. It was number 41.

Number 41's heart turned to ashes after being selected. He lamented in pain: "Oh god! Why am I having such a hard time today! "

The humorous action of the forty-first disciple had eased the gloomy atmosphere quite a bit.

The next drawing went smoothly one by one. After Yin Nian left the stage, the 16 disciples picked their opponents one by one.

Nie Zhen actually hoped that he would meet a disciple to try his luck. However, all sixteen of them had been drawn out and he had not encountered any of them. This meant that he was destined to not be able to meet any of the top 16 disciples in the second round.

"Although I won't meet an opponent who can enter the top sixteen, at least I won't meet anyone from the same sect …" Nie Zhen could only console himself.

Immediately after, Nie Zhen's paper stick was pulled out, and his opponent was number twenty-three.

"Haha!" Nie Zhen, I didn't expect us to be so destined! " Before Nie Zhen could see who his opponent was, he heard a sharp laughter coming from the side.

Nie Zhen turned around and saw that the source of the laughter was Shen Tiannan. He didn't expect the world to be so coincidental. The number 23 disciple was Shen Tiannan.

Shen Tiannan is Fifth Sect Master's third disciple, Fifth Sect Master's line rank even higher than Wu Yanyan.

However, Shen Tiannan's current condition could move people. Although his eyes were bloodshot, the spiritual energy was very vigorous and he was even a bit manic.

"He actually broke through to the second level of the sky realm?!" Nie Zhen instantly saw through Shen Tiannan's current cultivation level.1
