C242 Nie Zhen's Advice
"Hahaha... Fellow disciples of the Ice River Valley, this time, your performance was not bad, especially this time, at the home ground of the Origin Sect. Huang Xin, Wei Chao, the two of you are the leaders of my Ice River Valley disciples. Bing Tianya praised the disciples under him generously, especially the two people that he called out, they were the two top geniuses in Ice River Valley this time around.
"Master is too kind! this disciple does not dare to accept it! " The Ice River Valley disciple called Huang Xin said first.
At the same time, Wei Chao also said, "Unfortunately, those people from Duobao Sect are still 30 points ahead of them."
Bing Tianya stroked the white beard that reached his waist and said with a serious expression, "Indeed, it's a pity..." But according to this Valley Master's estimation, this time, the performance of the people from Duobao Sect will be so good, I'm afraid there will be a lot of luck, and think about it, it's very normal for Qin Wuyan to get 100 points, and it's said that Nie Zhen's strength is even higher than Qin Wuyan's, so getting 100 points is not a problem, but Lu Dong's strength is still below that female disciple Soong Dong'er's, if he can get 100 points, this Valley Master can only say, this son's luck is really good … "
At this time, Second Valley Master Bing Tian Ling spoke up from the Ice River Valley: "Don't be discouraged. It's merely thirty points, if you put in a bit of effort in the next round, you might be able to surpass it. Don't let it burden you too much, since Duobao Sect is never the strongest family in the three sects, so don't feel too burdened, and try your best to display it properly, okay?"
"Disciple understands!" All the Ice River Valley disciples agreed.
Bing Tianya added: "Looks like Origin Sect lost a lot of skill this time. We need to seize this opportunity and defeat them with our next heavy punch. Origin Sect is the host sect this time and we have defeated them.
At this time, Bing Zhu asked: "Valley Master, could it be that we don't have to be wary of Duobao Sect? I think that Duobao Sect is a little strange this time. "
Bing Tianya smiled faintly: "I do not mean that we do not need to care about Duobao Sect anymore, in fact, the current level of Duobao Sect is slightly higher than us, we should naturally be cautious of them, but the host sect's Origin Sect is usually the most powerful, not to mention, Origin Sect has always liked to play some small tricks, our first priority right now is still Duobao Sect, we need to be careful, but this valley master believes that just one round of competition is not enough to explain the problem, so let us observe whether this Duobao Sect is a dragon or a snake in the next round! It won't be too late to adjust our strategy then. "
"Disciple obeys!" All of the Ice River Valley disciples replied.
Alright, tomorrow's second round will be a competition between formations. You two will have to simultaneously face the attacks from eight directions in one Eight Trigram Formation Technique, Huang Xin, Wei Chao, at that time, you two will see which side has the strongest attack, and then you will take the initiative to shoulder the responsibility for your junior brothers. As for the others, be careful when dealing with attacks, it should not be difficult to get good results. After Bing Tianya finished speaking, he urged the disciples of Ice River Valley to return to their rooms to rest.
At the same time, in another room, the Duobao Sect disciples had already gathered in front of the three sect masters.
Especially when he saw Nie Zhen, he took the lead and said: "Nephew Nie, in this first round of the competition, your contributions could be said to be the greatest. If you hadn't spread the news about Shangguan Yu's sneak attack on you in time, then perhaps there really would have been a possibility that our Duobao Sect's disciples would have been ambushed and succeeded."
Even though these words could not be said publicly, they were in private right now. Everyone here were disciples of Duobao Sect, and all of them were close ones.
When Nie Zhen heard Great Sect Master praise himself by naming himself, he immediately said: "This disciple bears the guilt, but this is actually the result of my Duobao Sect brothers united together. This disciple has only done what was proper."
Zhuo Bufan nodded with satisfaction. He was not proud of his meritorious service, and Nie Zhen's performance was indeed worthy of his praise.
Hearing Nie Zhen's modesty, Fifth Sect Master could not sit still any longer, and immediately said: "Although Nephew Nie you are modest, but undeniably, your contributions are the greatest, especially that last Jade Token of Lu Dong. According to Lu Dong, you were the one who told him where to get it in time, right? Everyone knows, in this kind of competition, if one more person gets a perfect score, then one more person can help their fellow sect members search for Jade Token. This is a chain reaction, and from the looks of it, your achievement is far more than just as simple as one hundred points. "
"Hahaha... You two old fellows, you've almost pushed my disciple to the skies. Aren't you afraid of killing him? " Duan Rong laughed loudly. It could be considered as him helping Nie Zhen out of trouble.
Fifth Sect Master rolled his eyes at Duan Rong and said with a weird smile, "Don't be such an old boy, I still don't know about you. Even if you say that out loud, you must be overjoyed in your heart, right? "
The disciples all pursed their lips and held back their smiles. The sect masters didn't treat the disciples as outsiders and even joked around in front of the disciples. This made the atmosphere in the room extremely relaxed and harmonious.
"Haha …" "Alright, that's all for the joke then..." "Nephew Nie, Wuliang, you two are the leader among the disciples, and are also the strongest, I have no choice but to give you some different requests, and in the following rounds, if you can help out your fellow disciples, I hope that you can help out a lot, firstly, for the sake of friendship, and secondly, because of this, my Duobao Sect results will be even better, but right now, our Duobao Sect only seems to be ahead by thirty points, and if not one of us is paying attention to the next round, we will be overtaken by them."
Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan, who were called out by Zhuo Bufan, immediately declared, "I will do my best!"
"Haha, alright. You must be tired after all these days. Using your Spiritual Awareness to do this probably won't feel good, right? "Quickly go back to your room and rest. Tomorrow, try to get at your best state." Duan Rong saw that two of his disciples were tired, so he spoke up.
"Hey hey!" Second brother, I still have two more lines to say, very soon … " Zhuo Bufan said with a wry smile when he saw that Duan Rong intended to end the meeting.
"Hey!" Look at me, I've forgotten. Boss, you still have tomorrow's match to explain, right? " Duan Rong suddenly remembered that there were still things he had yet to discuss and felt a little embarrassed.
"Mn, but it's not anything special. This sect leader explained it clearly in a few sentences …" Fellow disciples, tomorrow's competition will be held in an eight trigram formation, where eight different directions will be used to attack you. Although it is an unitary formation, there will always be strong and weak spots in the eight directions, Nephew Nie, Wuliang, you are the strongest amongst the disciples, you should carefully observe which direction is the strongest, and once you discover which direction is the strongest, you will take the initiative to block that direction. This way, as far as possible, you will be able to obtain a good result. After saying this, even Zhuo Bufan indicated that he had ended the conversation.
Just as the Duobao Sect disciples expressed their intent to leave, Nie Zhen suddenly asked: "What? Tomorrow, our method of dealing with the formation will be for eight people to guard eight places at the same time? "
"Not bad, is there a problem?" Zhuo Bufan wasn't angry just because Nie Zhen had his doubts. On the contrary, Zhuo Bufan valued Nie Zhen greatly, and he couldn't wait for Nie Zhen to show his face.
Nie Zhen pondered for a moment, and said: "According to the rules of the second round of the competition that Senior Brother Qin had informed the disciples, we need to last ten incense sticks of time to pass the examination, and we also know that as long as one disciple is eliminated, ten incense sticks of time will be deducted, so our goal is to last ten incense sticks of time to all the disciples. If we were to go on stage and count it all, perhaps none of the disciples will be able to last through the entire round."
The three grand masters went silent when they heard Nie Zhen's words. They were too clear about the attack of the eight trigram formation. It wouldn't be a problem for Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan to hold on, but it wouldn't be easy for the others.
Zhuo Bufan wanted to let Nie Zhen establish his prestige in front of the disciples, so he immediately smiled and said to Nie Zhen: "If that's the case, then what do you think we should do in this second round?"0
Nie Zhen knew that this was not the time to be modest, so he bluntly said, "According to this disciple's foolishness, we eight martial brothers might as well form a two-circle formation inside and outside."
At this point, Duan Rong forced a smile and said, "Disciple, you don't know... Our Eastern Royal Great Empire s sects are actually not particularly good at array formations, and have very little understanding of array formations. Just that Eight Trigram Formation was passed down from the ancient times, and the three great Eastern Royal Great Empire s only know of this array. "
First, we will choose five people to form an outer circle, surrounding the remaining three people in the inner circle. When the Eight Trigram Formation attacks start, we will first have the five people in the outer circle to deal with it together, and once one of them runs out of energy, the person in the inner circle will immediately take the place of the others, and once the person in the outer circle enters the inner circle, he should be able to recover his or her physical strength. When the others can no longer hold on, we will switch back.
