189: C189 The Second Round of Eliminations

C189 The Second Round of Eliminations

On the ninth day, the second round of the competition had finally begun. Su Chen, who was ranked forty, was still scheduled for the first day of the competition.

Perhaps it was because of his strength, Su Chen's reputation had skyrocketed. The number of people who came to watch his competition this day seemed to be twice as many as before. The entire audience was cheering and cheering.

Su Chen was placed on the fifth stage of the competition. Similarly, he took out a wooden tablet from a wooden box. His opponent was number two hundred and thirteenth.

It was a Swordsman with a blue sword, golden hair. The dark green eyes indicated that he was a Westerner. It was 1.8 meters tall, and it was wearing a shining blue armor. Its handsome face had a hint of arrogance on it.

"I didn't expect that my opponent would be you, Yu Loong." When the Swordsman called Chaos saw Su Chen, its arrogance disappeared, and it turned serious.

Su Chen smiled slightly and said, "It's me. You don't have to be nervous. We are just sparring, so we will stop when we get to the point."

Chaos suddenly revealed a cold smile and said, "Boring naivety. In order to win, I will do whatever it takes."

Su Chen said faintly, "Then do your best."

Under the cheers of the audience, the two of them quickly fought.

Chaos was a Spiritual Will Stage expert who used water to familiarize himself with combat energy. Although the Swordsman was the same as the classification of warriors, warriors paid attention to the Martial Body cultivation, and the Swordsman paid attention to the cultivation of combat energy.

On the path of cultivation, warriors were even more bumpy than Swordsman. They trained until the end. The advantage was slowly revealed. In the same level, a Swordsman's strength would never be able to compare to a martial artist's. And in the Dao Recognizing Period realm, there was a huge difference between the Swordsman and a martial artist.

The martial soul of a martial artist was born from comprehending the Great Dao. It could be said that it gathered the good fortune of all things in the world. It was mysterious and unpredictable. On the other hand, the Swordsman's martial soul was mainly Sword Dao. They had broken through to the Dao Recognizing Period. As long as they could comprehend the Sword Dao, they would be able to produce Sword Souls. Compared to warriors, it was much easier.

Of course, there were some martial artists who could not break through to the Dao Recognizing Period and comprehend their own Great Dao. They would also put down their face and lower their requirements, entering the Dao with their swords. They would give birth to a Sword Soul that was the same as the Swordsman. However, if they did this, then they wouldn't be able to become a Martial God of a generation. They could only be ordinary Sword Gods.

Amongst those of the same level, the advantage of a martial artist was the greatest. Therefore, Su Chen knew that he could deal with this Swordsman in front of him.

The sword technique of the Swordsman was incomparably profound. The blue combat qi danced in the air in circles, surrounding Su Chen from all directions. The attacking power of the ring-shaped combat qi was extremely strong, and its attack range was wide. It was very difficult to dodge.

However, in Su Chen's eyes, this move could be said to be full of flaws. He immediately saw through the trajectory of the circle. His body dodged unhurriedly, and he easily dodged the seemingly dense combat power ring.

"How did he dodge it? Unbelievable." The audience watched in bewilderment. In their eyes, Su Chen had been surrounded from the beginning. However, he was like a transparent person. The combat power ring could not touch him at all.

Cold sweat broke out on Chaos' forehead. He knew very well what had happened just now. His opponent seemed to have seen through his attack. But under normal circumstances... Unless his strength was a level higher than his, it would be very difficult for him to see through his own moves.

In terms of momentum, Chaos instantly fell into a disadvantageous position.

"Battle Armor." Chaos shouted loudly. A burst of blue Dou Qi burst out from his entire body. After that, it quickly condensed into a battle energy armor and covered every part of his body.

Using the Battle Armor meant that he was ready to defend. Only the opponents that he had taken a fancy to would use the Swordsman to defend.

The blue battle energy armor flashed with a deep divine light, blocking the three half-moon shaped sword energies that Su Chen had sent out. However, Su Chen had already arrived in front of his divine body with the Tiger Steps. The tiger claws that the treasured sword had transformed into kept slashing down like a sharp heavenly blade. It tore through the void and attacked Chaos.

Chaos broke out in cold sweat. Four circular blue Dou Qi emerged from his sword. It was mixed with terrifying power as it met the tiger claws.

That was his sword move, which he was proud of. The density of the round water combat power was very high. The four combat power collided with Tiger Claw, creating a strong airflow. Blue light and purple light flew in all directions and hit the stones on the ground. Huge cracks appeared on the ground.

"Water Dragon Break." The two continued to fight for another dozens of rounds, and Chaos was at a disadvantage. Finally, he used his most powerful attack once again. It was a 30 meter western Flying Dragon made of blue combat power. Its entire body was covered with blue and gem-like scales. It waved its claws and brandished its claws as it swept towards Su Chen.

Su Chen's body moved like lightning, leaving afterimages in his original position. He kept retreating. Finally, he felt that the time was right, and a purple light burst out from his left hand. The God Killing Claw howled out. He transformed into a tiger and leapt upwards. He collided with the Flying Dragon.

"What?!" Chaos cried out in shock. Su Chen's figure pierced through the Flying Dragon's body and the entire combat qi dragon instantly vanished.

The Happiness Thinking Sword was as fast as lightning, and it contained powerful true qi. Chaos kept dancing around Chaos. He tried his best to resist, but the more he fought, the more shocked he became. He was simply unable to see through Su Chen's sword attack. He could only barely resist. In the end, he was actually forced to the edge of the stage.

"Clang!"

The sword in Chaos' hand was suddenly sent flying by a huge gust of air. It was stabbed diagonally into the rock of the competition stage. The sword's blade was also flickering with a dazzling blue light.

"I admit defeat." Chaos' face had a trace of fear and a trace of dejection.1

Su Chen had won the match without expending much of his strength. One had to admit that... The strength of this Swordsman was far weaker than Lin Xiang's Dark Elementalist. Unfortunately... Lin Xiang was defeated by Su Chen in the first match, and Chaos' opponent in the first match wasn't very strong. He had just entered the second round of the competition.

It had to be said that luck was also a kind of strength.

However, those students who could truly enter the top six did not just rely on luck. They had to have true strength.

In the afternoon competition, Su Chen silently remembered that two of the experts also passed the competition with overwhelming strength. Just like Su Chen, these few people were the students that the school thought highly of. It was very likely that they would make it to the final round of the qualifiers.

Four days passed by like flowing water. The second round of qualifiers had ended, and another half of the contestants had been eliminated. Out of the 600 contestants, only 158 remained.

These were the elites of the elites, and could also be said to be the experts of the experts. The qualifiers between them would become more and more intense, and it would attract more and more people's attention.

In the third round of the qualifiers, the school changed the rules of the drawing of lots. Everyone had chosen their opponents before the competition. Then, these 158 people were divided into four teams, and they were divided into four days to carry out the elimination round.

Of course, if this was the case, there would still be four matches a day, but they would be held separately on the five stages of the competition. The more intense the competition, the more interesting it would be. Therefore, if the competition was too scattered, many of the audience would be dissatisfied.

A large portion of these audience members were people with status and fame. The school obviously did not want to see them being dissatisfied. This competition... Although it was mainly to select six outstanding people to participate in the Continental Cultivation Gathering, a portion of it was to increase the reputation of the academy. It was to let the exciting competition spread throughout the continent through the mouths of the audience, and let everyone know... The Blue Snow Academy was very powerful.

In the past few days, besides watching the competition, Su Chen had also mastered the usage of his natal true qi. He felt more and more that as the competition progressed, his opponent would become stronger and stronger. It was far from enough to rely on the ordinary true qi in his body. After all, using an Earth Scroll Technique like the Light of Destruction... He would need to consume half of his ordinary True Qi. If he were to meet an opponent who had terrifying skills... That would be dangerous.

He had such a feeling because almost all of the matches he watched were held by Profound Rank warriors. The Profound Rank stage was a special stage. It was a battle between experts. It was usually a victory by relying on the amount of energy contained in one's body and the techniques one could control.

The more energy one had, the more strange and terrifying the techniques one could control, and the higher the chance of winning.

Su Chen saw it, whether it was cultivators, Elementalist, or warriors. Swordsman, Beast Knight, and so on, they were forced into a desperate situation. And when their fighting spirit was strong, they would all bet everything and use their life's true essence energy. Their life's magic, life's battle energy, life's true essence, and so on would display their strongest hidden ultimate moves.

Some cultivators changed from defeat to victory. They also relied on the last move to catch the cultivators who had the upper hand by surprise.

In the wondrous stage of the Profound Rank, every practitioner must not underestimate any opponent.

When the third round of eliminations began, among the spectators who had come to watch, more unexpected guests. Some of the cultivators from the big sects also came to watch. Apart from watching the show, their main purpose was to collect information for the contestants from the same sect.

As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and win a hundred battles in a hundred battles. The more detailed the information on your opponent was, the more confident you would be in winning.

The competition was still cruel. The stronger ones were left behind, and the weaker ones were eliminated.

After two days of intense battles, out of the one hundred and fifty-eight people, a quarter had already been eliminated. What was surprising was that almost none of the matches ended in a tie. Every student was fighting to the death.

It seemed that they were very interested in the competition that would make an appearance on the continent. They all wanted to fight for a name.

Seeing some of the cultivators who almost died in the match, Su Chen sighed with emotion.

Part of the reason he participated in the competition was due to his nature. The warlike blood was driving him.

Another reason was to make Yu Huan happy. Yu Huan hoped that she would be the first, so he did his best.
