Although Ye Guhsing had obtained victory in the competition, the spectators in Stage 5 all thought that Ye Guhsing had only relied on his agility and a bit of luck to defeat Oka, such a person, even if he won the first round, he would still not be able to enter the top eight. Taking a step back, even if a person like Ye Guhsing managed to enter the top eight, he would still be considered as a stepping stone for the opponent to advance to the semi-finals.
Ye Guhsing, who had always been self-reliant, did not care what others thought of him. Be it his strength or luck, in his eyes, whoever obtained the final victory in the tournament, would be the true victor.
Ye Guhsing's victory seemed to have given the other members of Cangming Academy a good start, because after Ye Guhsing won, Murong Qianqian also won against her own opponent, a lady participant from Academy Of Light.
After that, other than Ziwu Feng who was a seeded participant from Cangming Academy, the rest of the participants had all obtained victory in the first round. Like this, according to the rules of the competition, with the exception of Ziwu Feng, who was a seeded participant from Cangming Academy who had missed in the first round, the remaining participants had all obtained victory in the first round.
One day later, the second round of the competition started once again. Because the lots had been drawn to decide the competition, this round Ye Guhsing and the two people on his left hand were free, and the rest of the participants were able to once again participate in the second round.
In the second round, Duanmu Yi and Lee Xiang had respectively met the seeded participants in their respective groups. Duanmu Yi had met the seeded participant Dao Ba in the red group, while Lee Xiang had met the seeded participant from the white group.
For Dao Ba and Gilbert to be chosen by their Principal as seeded contestants, their abilities must have never been stronger. As a result, Duanmu Yi and Lee Xiang bitterly endured for fifty moves before they both lost.
As for Ziwu Feng and Murong Qianqian who had already levelled up their Innate State, they easily defeated their opponents, and as a result, the two of them obtained two points. Adding on the two points obtained from the first round of the competition, Murong Qianqian was currently in first place in the white group, while Ziwu Feng, Ye Guhsing, a female participant from Beichen Academy, and a participant from Academy Of Light had accumulated two points each, placing first in the black group.
As for the left hand, since Dao Ba and the others were in the Red Group, as they were in the middle of the group with only two points, they were ranked second and third.
And Moore, who had won two matches in the green group, was placed first, followed closely behind.
Time passed by very quickly. As he turned around, he saw that the group competition had reached its final round. After entering the last round of the group competition, the shape of each group became clear.
Just like the few chairmen had predicted, George and Moore from the green group took first and second place respectively, while from the red group had taken first place with all the way through with his left hand and firmly held the top position in the group with the other hand. As for Dao Ba, he followed after Dao Ba and took second place in the group.
In their eyes, Ye Guhsing, a person who only knew how to dodge and not attack, was actually able to be ranked second in the group. This caused the majority of the audience in Empire Of Light to be unable to accept this outcome, but they could only admire Ye Guhsing's luck in their hearts.
The form of the white group's appearance was already extremely clear. Murong Qianqian advanced with great fanfare all the way, and defeated the other four participants as she firmly held onto the top of the group. Gilbert, who had lost to Murong Qianqian in Beichen Academy, also did not disappoint the Dean of the North Star Mystic Moon, and in the end, defeated the other three participants and entered the top eight.
After a day, the victor of the last round of group stages was determined. The eight strongest competitors were George and Moore from the green group, the left hand of the red group, Dao Ba, Ziwu Feng from the black group, Ye Guhsing, Murong Qianqian from the white group, and Gilbert.
These eight contestants would once again draw lots in the final eight matches three days later to decide who their opponents would be in the top eight.
Among the top eight, Cangming Academy took up half of the land, followed by Academy Of Light that took up two spots, and finally, Violet Vine Academy and Beichen Academy that took up one spot each.
When they saw the rankings for the top eight, the surrounding audience of Empire Of Light Second Younger Brother s began to slightly worry in their hearts. At the same time, they couldn't help but secretly praise the strength of the Cangming Academy s that were going to be used in the Four Major Academies.
— —
Since the top eight battles would begin in three days, Ye Guhsing and the other three Cangming Academy participants who had entered the top eight battles would have a rare few days of rest.
For an expert like Ye Guhsing, who had already entered the Sixth Level Of Innate Stage, the competition did not waste much of his Vital Qi. In fact, during the previous competition, Ye Guhsing did not even use his two floors of strength.
Amongst the four of them, they were the weakest, so fighting for the top eight places was extremely difficult. Therefore, these three days of rest were extremely precious to the two of them.
"Hey, left hand, why do I feel that Second Younger Brother seems to be very busy these few days? Every day he leaves early and returns late, what is he doing?" In a quiet little courtyard in the Blue Deity Hotel, Ye Guhsing asked casually while tasting the fine wine in his left hand.
"I don't know. Mister Zi has been acting very secretively these past two days. He leaves the hotel at dawn and doesn't return until the afternoon." His left hand shook as he spoke.
"Strange, since the first group stage ended, this kid seems to have become a completely different person. He is so secretive, could it be that he is hiding by himself to practice some kind of ultimate skill?" After listening to his left hand's words, Ye Guhsing put down the wine cup in his hand and muttered to himself.
"Big news, big news!" Just when Ye Guhsing couldn't figure out what kind of plane Ziwu Feng was on these two days, suddenly, the small courtyard's door was rushed open by someone. Following that, Lee Xiang and that foolish big fellow Murong Xiao rushed in.
"What are you guys doing? What are you two doing being chased away by wolves or something? What big news could cause you two to be so agitated?" Could it be that the Emperor of Empire Of Light had died? What's wrong with that, he still owes me a few billion Purple Gold Coin. If he burps like that, after I win the individual competition, who will be able to get the money from? " Ye Guhsing snorted at the two people who rushed into the small courtyard.
"F * ck, Captain, you have too much imagination. The current Emperor of Light isn't even fifty years old yet. How could he possibly die?" You don't know, I've discovered a big secret! Once this secret is revealed, it will definitely ignite our Cangming Academy's contestants. " Lee Xiang said mysteriously.
"F * ck, what big secret could ignite our Cangming Academy's contesting team. You brat, tell me, if you can't detonate this captain today, you have to accompany me in a pot of the Holy Light City's most delicious wine, or else, hehe, I'll let you know why the flowers on my Mystic Moon Continent are so red." Ye Guhsing laughed and threatened.
"Captain, I guarantee it will be explosive. This is definitely shocking news." Lee Xiang immediately said with an excited face.
"Speak!" "If you keep trying, this captain will let you fight with your left hand. Do you believe me?" Ye Guhsing snorted when he saw the excited expression on Lee Xiang's face.0
"No, no, no. Captain, please show mercy." Lee Xiang waved his hands in a hurry and said. He did not want to fight with the battle madman in his left hand, if not he would have to say two things tomorrow when he could not get up.
"Captain, do you know who I saw in the forest to the west of the city?" Lee Xiang said with a mysterious smile.
"Who did you see? Have you seen a ghost? " Ye Guhsing snorted in dissatisfaction.
"No, no, Captain, Murong Xiao and I just saw our young master Zi in the forest to the west of the city." Lee Xiang said.
"Second Younger Brother? What happened to Second Younger Brother? What was a man doing in the woods to the west of the city? Could it be that he's really practicing some kind of ultimate move and is preparing to show off his skills in the top eight? " Ye Guhsing said with a puzzled expression.
"Where? Captain, you're completely wrong. The young master Zi is not practicing some kind of ultimate move. He is currently training with an extremely beautiful girl in the forest. From the looks of it, the two of them are already in love! " Lee Xiang said mysteriously.
"Holy sh * t!" I was wondering why Second Younger Brother left early and returned late these past two days. So he was secretly hiding in order to date a beauty. " Hearing Lee Xiang's words, Ye Guhsing was so scared that he immediately shouted excitedly to the table, and then asked Lee Xiang again: "Lee Xiang, did you clearly see who that woman was? I'm going to check on my Second Younger Brother, so that his newbie in the love scene won't be tricked by others."
"Leader, I saw it clearly, that woman is the female participant from Beichen Academy who was assigned to the black group at the same time as you and the young master Zi. Based on how Murong Xiao and I were looking at each other so intimately just now, I'm afraid that the two of them would have already looked at each other during the competition." Lee Xiang nodded.
"That girl?" Hearing Lee Xiang's words, Ye Guhsing suddenly recalled the girl with big eyes who was standing on the stage with a clear aura coming from her Beichen Academy.
"Right, right, Captain, this time, Lee Xiang is not exaggerating at all. Earlier, in the forest, Young Master Zi and that girl were not training at all, they were flirting and flattering each other, even more so than you, Qianqian and Miss Ji Li." Murong Xiao this foolish big guy was really straightforward, he did not care whether Murong Qianqian and Jiri Carl were present or not, only the two of them could be compared to Ye Guhsing.
After that, he jumped out of the pavilion like lightning. Just as he jumped away, the treasured sword in Murong Qianqian's hand, who had been standing at the other side of the pavilion all this time, had already arrived, and immediately hacked the stone stool that Ye Guhsing had sat on into two.
Little Girl Murong, are you sick? You wanted to kill me, young master, but I didn't provoke you just now. Ye Guhsing, who had jumped out of the pavilion, roared angrily at Murong Qianqian, who had attacked.
"Humph, this kind of captain has this kind of team member. Do I not know what kind of person my cousin is? The reason why he became like this is all because of you. Murong Qianqian said with a cold face, but everyone noticed that under Murong Qianqian's ice-cold face was a bit of a blush.
"F * ck, is there even any justice here? Why does everything have to do with the young master, and why are you letting me live?! Ugh, Little Girl Murong, all the people from your Murong Family are Overlords, I can't afford to offend you, and you think you can't hide from me?" You guys stay here and enjoy yourselves. I'll go take a look at how my younger brother's wife looks like. " Ye Guhsing said as he rolled his eyes helplessly. After that, he tapped his feet on the ground and headed towards the forest on the west side of the city.
"Hey, captain, wait for us, we're going to watch the show too!" Just as Ye Guhsing was about to leave, Lee Xiang and Murong Xiao shouted at the same time, and immediately, the two of them ran forward to chase after Ye Guhsing.
