Chapter 729 The competition begins
However, although Biyunmen’s strength is not weak, its scope of influence is only within Yuanluo Kingdom.
If the scope is expanded to the entire seven countries south of Qingzhou, the overall strength of Biyun Sect can only be regarded as mid-range.
As far as the overall strength of Biyun Sect is now, Lin Tianyun actually doesn’t take it too seriously.
After all, the number of Jindan clan members in the Lin family has already exceeded ten digits.
In addition, Lin Tianming is still in the late stage of Jindan, and his personal strength is almost invincible in the entire stage of Jindan.
This has been perfectly verified in the previous war that broke out in Jinfeng Kingdom.
Especially Lin Tianming’s horrific achievements directly shocked the entire land of Qingzhou.
At that time, Lin Tianming had a reputation as a demon slayer, and his reputation was known to everyone.
With the help of Lin Tianming's name, the influence of the entire Lin family also resounded throughout Qingzhou with the end of this battle.
And Lin Tianming is only one of the high-level combat forces of the Lin family. In addition to Lin Tianming, Qin Xi is also very powerful, comparable to a strong man in the late stage of the Golden Core.
Coupled with Lin Tianyun himself, as well as Ye Pinghai, Lin Shikang and Lin Shilu, there are already four powerful people in the middle stage of the Golden Core in the Lin family.
The Jin elixir expert from Biyun Sect participating in the competition is named Chen Shouyi, and his cultivation level is also at the middle stage of Jin elixir.
For this monk, Lin Tianyun also paid attention to this person's information in advance.
According to intelligence records, Chen Shouyi was also a casual cultivator in the early days, and later voluntarily joined the Biyun Sect during the foundation building period.
In the early days of Biyun Sect, Chen Shouyi was very low-key and practiced very hard.
Until Chen Shouyi broke through the Golden Elixir stage, his name was almost unknown.
But as his cultivation entered the Golden Core stage, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.
But even so, after he broke through the Golden Core stage, he still kept a low profile. He rarely had the opportunity to show up, and rarely participated in the battles of the Golden Core stage in public.
What really made him famous was decades ago.
At that time, Chen Shouyi had defeated a monk of the same level.
At that time, the battlefield was on the territory of Biyun Gate, which was still on the outskirts of a small city.
Ever since, some monks passing by heard the noise and witnessed this scene with their own eyes.
Since then, Chen Shouyi's combat effectiveness and cultivation have been publicly revealed.
For a time, Chen Shouyi's strength and the Warring States Period also caused quite a shock among the seven countries in the southern part of Qingzhou.
During the last attack on the Ankylosaurus, Chen Shouyi's burst of strength was very powerful, and he also had rich fighting experience, so he obviously had a certain level of strength.
Otherwise, Biyunmen would not have sent Chen Shouyi as a representative to participate in the competition.
Lin Tianyun is very clear about this.
Besides, Lin Tianyun also paid attention to Chen Shouyi during the last encirclement and suppression of Ankylosaurus.
Not only him, but all the strong men who participated in the encirclement and suppression battle were secretly observed by Lin Tianyun.
The reason why he did this was to keep an eye on him and to gain as much information as possible about his potential opponents.
According to what Lin Tianyun knows, Chen Shouyi's combat effectiveness is indeed good, and his attacks are also extremely weird. If a monk of the same level faces him, if he underestimates the enemy or is controlled by the opponent, he will probably get killed. Dark loss.
But after Lin Tianyun knew this, he naturally would not be led by Chen Shouyi.
What's more, although Chen Shouyi is very strong, Lin Tianyun is more confident in his own strength.
Not to mention facing Chen Shouyi, even if he faced Xu Zhuo from the Lieyang Sect or Zhang Shun from the Nine Nether Sect, Lin Tianyun still had confidence in his own strength.
This is the confidence of the strong!
In Lin Tianyun's eyes, he will not be too careless when meeting any opponent, but he will not be too ambitious either.
Knowing this, Lin Tianyun was confident at this time.
When Lin Tianyun looked at Chen Shouyi, the other man's face looked a little ugly at this time.
Obviously, Chen Shouyi also knows how strong the Lin family is.
In particular, Lin Tianming, the hidden dragon of the Lin family, was at the peak of his power at this time, and was almost called the strongest person below the Nascent Soul stage by Qingzhou monks.
Although the representative of the Lin family here is Lin Tianyun, his overall strength did not show enough to impress people before.
But judging from what Lin Tianyun has shown, he is a wind spirit root monk with a different attribute, and his talent potential is really terrifying.
Under normal circumstances, a monk with this kind of strange attribute is the favorite of God. His cultivation speed is extremely fast, and his attack power is even more weird.
In the last encirclement and suppression battle, Lin Tianyun obviously had hidden strength.
Chen Shouyi knew this very well.
So, when Chen Shouyi saw that Biyun Sect's opponent was the Lin family, he felt a little helpless.
But when he thought about it carefully, judging from the strength of their Biyun Sect and his own combat effectiveness, it was obviously unrealistic to be among the top few in a competition with so many strong men. thing.
In this case, facing the Lin family in the first round, even if they are easily defeated by the opponent, they will not have no chance of making a comeback.
At the very least, they can challenge other opponents immediately.
As long as you defeat the defender, you can occupy the opponent's position.
In this way, even if they lost to the Lin family in the first round, it was not an unacceptable result.
Thinking of this, Chen Shouyi's face looked a little better at this time.
At this time, the representatives of the forces who had announced the results of the lottery earlier also had complex expressions. Some of them had drawn opponents that were not strong, and they still had a lucky smile on their faces.
But some people's expressions suddenly turned bitter when they drew the organizing forces of the Lieyang Sect.
Obviously, no one wants to encounter those forces with powerful backgrounds in the first round.
However, under these lottery rules, no one can influence who the opponent is.
What's more, even if you draw an opponent of average strength in the first round, people from other forces will take the initiative to challenge you later.
In this case, if the defense is unsuccessful, even if you are lucky enough to pass the first round of the competition, you will still not be able to get a high ranking.
Knowing this, under the complicated emotions of some monks, all the lottery results have come out.
As a result, the seventh member of the Lin family appeared, and his opponent was Chen Shouyi of the Biyun Sect.
As for the other forces, Lin Tianyun focused on several organizer forces, as well as the Five Poison Sect of the Golden Crow Kingdom.
In his eyes, only these few forces would pose a certain threat to the Lin family's ranking.
Now, according to the results of the immediate draw, the opponents of Lieyang Sect, Long Qing Sect, and Xiao Family are not strong, and their overall strength can only be regarded as average.
On the contrary, the luck of the two forces, Five Poison Sect and Nine Nether Sect, seemed not to be very good. They actually met early in the first round of competition.
As for several other forces, including the Lin family, the sects or family backgrounds behind their opponents are relatively average, and their overall strength is relatively low among the twenty forces participating in the competition, or at the mid-to-upper level.
Only Jiuyoumen, as the organizer force, encountered the Five Poison Sect, an opponent that was second only to the organizer force in the first round.
Regarding this result, Zhang Shun, the representative of Jiuyoumen, looked a little ugly at this time. It can be seen that Zhang Shun is still very afraid of Liu Hongming's strength.
After all, the overall strength of the Five Poison Sect that Liu Hongming belongs to is not weak, and the achievements Liu Hongming has created are also real.
Facing such a strong opponent, I am afraid that no one would want to meet him in the first round.
On the contrary, Liu Hongming of the Five Poison Sect looked very calm at this time and did not seem to be too worried.
With such a reaction, I don’t know whether Liu Hongming is overconfident or does not value the ranking in the first round.
In short, only Liu Hongming knows his current psychology.
As a result, under the complicated emotions of representatives of various forces, all the opponents for the competition were created.
Moreover, no matter what mentality these people have now, they have to accept the result of the lottery.
On the contrary, outside the competition venue, the monks who came to watch the excitement were all talking about it.
Amidst the noise, I heard a monk mentioning the topic.
"Haha... the results of the first round of competition are out, Jiuyou Sect is actually going to encounter the Five Poison Sect."
"The strength behind these two forces is not weak. , the personal strength of the two senior representatives is even more terrifying.”
"Such a battle, if nothing else, should be the biggest suspense in the first round of competition."
"As for the other nine competitions, it should be a one-sided situation."
“There’s a good show to watch next!”
Amidst the noisy discussion, all the monks watching the excitement opened their eyes wide, and they were extremely looking forward to the beginning of the competition.
Next, during a period of calm, Xu Zhuo of the Lieyang Sect appeared again and began to organize the start of the next round.
At this moment, Xu Zhuo was seen hovering in mid-air, and his loud voice spread to every corner of the venue.
"Fellow Taoists, the results of the lottery have come out. I wonder if you have any questions about the results?"
"If you have any, you might as well raise them now."
"If not, then let's start the competition based on this result?"
After saying this, Xu Zhuo once again glanced at the representatives of every force in the audience, and he also meant to ask respective opinions.
Soon, everyone fell silent, obviously having no doubts about the result of the draw.
In this way, Xu Zhuo saw that the tribesmen were speaking out to object, so he continued: "Since no one is speaking out to object, then I will assume that everyone approves."
"And next, We will conduct the first round of competition according to the order of the draw results."
"Finally, I would like to remind you fellow Taoists."
"This time the competition will take place. The process is, after all, just a discussion.”
"I hope that everyone will be merciful when it is not necessary. Don't forge life-and-death hatred because of some interests and let the situation get out of control."
"If this is the case, it is not what we are doing here. The original intention of this competition.”
“I hope everyone will seriously consider this.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhuo looked at the representatives of the two different forces again and then spoke. Said something.
"You two, Fellow Daoist He and Fellow Daoist Min, can start!"
After saying this, Xu Zhuo took the lead in retreating and returned to the platform where the Lieyang Sect monks were.
At this time, representatives of other forces also left the stage.
Including Lin Tianyun, they also retreated and returned to Lin Tianfeng and others.
In less than a blink of an eye, representatives of the eighteen participating forces left the arena, completely vacating the arena. Only the representatives of both sides from the first round remained in the center of the arena. .
At this moment, Xu Zhuo saw everyone exiting the stage, and then activated the third-order formation he had prepared in advance.
In the blink of an eye, amidst a roar, strong winds in the sky caused flying sand and rocks.
At the same time, the energy between heaven and earth surged rapidly, and soon there was a huge light curtain, covering a large area of the field.
The platform where Lin Tianyun is located is just outside the scope of the light curtain.
When the commotion subsided, the sky became calm again.
At this time, everyone watching the battle outside the light curtain could clearly see every move inside the formation.
At this moment, the two golden elixir stage powerhouses in the formation each looked at each other, and then the two of them cupped their hands and fisted each other, treating it as a greeting before the competition.
Immediately afterwards, one of the monks surnamed Min said: "Friend He, swords and guns have no eyes, so be careful!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the monk surnamed Min jumped up and headed towards the opposite side. The monk surnamed He shot away.
While still in mid-air, I saw the monk surnamed Min pat his waist.
In less than an instant, a dark long sword magic weapon appeared in this man's hand.
Immediately afterwards, the man flicked his fingers, and a stream of spiritual light bombarded his magic weapon.
In a pleasant sound, an invisible breath formed, and a touch of color suddenly appeared in the sky.
At this moment, the monk surnamed He on the opposite side saw the opponent taking action, and he was also unwilling to lag behind.
“Come and fight!”
In an instant, the monk surnamed He shouted loudly, and then the magic weapon appeared in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, this person pinched the magic weapon in the same way, and a stream of spiritual light accurately bombarded the magic weapon.
"咻咻咻咻..."
As soon as he said it, a pale red sword suddenly appeared in the sky.
When the long sword appeared, strong winds in the sky caused flying sand and rocks. For a time, a large amount of vitality rushed towards this direction crazily, and finally submerged into the long sword, apparently being swallowed up by this magic weapon.
With the crazy influx of vitality, the size of the pale red sword is getting larger and larger, and the aura has doubled.
As the changes in the long sword became more and more obvious, it finally seemed to reach a certain critical point.
At this time, the monk surnamed He also noticed these changes and could clearly understand the basic state of the long sword.
So with his attention, this person stopped wasting time.
“Go!”
As the monk surnamed He shouted, the long sword in the sky flashed and shot directly towards the monk surnamed Min opposite.
At the same time, a powerful momentum formed and spread first.
