Chapter 77 The First Battle (Part 1)
"Calm down." Ye Hua glared at Li Xin, "The Demon Hunting Group Selection Tournament gathers the elite talents of the entire Temple Alliance. What's the benefit of the appearance of the Earth Knight? Strange? There are almost every session. Don't forget, our Knight Temple is the first of the six major temples. Not only do we have fifth-level professionals, but there are also several other major temples. When the top ten are competing in the finals of the Demon Group Trials, it is almost a stage for fifth-level professionals. Don't think that just because you are good in Haoyue City, you can be equally good here. Your mission is to set your mind right. Try to enter the top ten in the preliminary round, so that you can enter the finals and become a member of the Demon Hunting Group.”
Although there are many young and strong people in this Demon Hunting Group selection, Ye Hua is not very concerned about it. eager. Long Haochen is only fourteen years old and will still be able to participate in two Demon Hunting Group trials in the future. This time, he mainly wanted his precious apprentice to come and experience it. As for competing for ranking, that is a matter for the next selection competition. Give Long Haochen another five years, Earth Knight? Hum, at least he is also a peak earth knight.
Of course, Ye Hua would not say this to Long Haochen now, as he did not want to sap his apprentice's fighting spirit.
“In a sense, the preliminary rounds are more cruel than the finals. Lots are drawn directly for the knockout rounds. But contestants of level five or above will have a bye in the first two rounds. And the temple will arrange for them to only be in the top ten. Only in the competition will we have the opportunity to meet, to ensure that our Knight Temple can get a good ranking in the finals of the selection. Therefore, you must work hard and not make any mistakes, otherwise, you may be eliminated in the first round. Come down."
"Yes." Long Haochen and Li Xin responded respectfully.
Ye Hua said: "Okay, you all go back to your room to rest. Don't go out before the game starts. If you can increase your spiritual power a little more, your chances in the game will be greater."
Long Haochen returned to his room, but before he could start practicing, Ye Hua followed him.
“Teacher.” Long Haochen saluted Ye Hua respectfully.
Ye Hua waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, "Tell me the story of your trial."
Long Haochen naturally wouldn't hide it, and hunted them down successively, including the Ruk tribe, The process of the Dirk tribe and the final green double-sword demon was explained in detail. Later, he did not hide the fact that he met Lin Xin and the violent priest Sima Xian on the road.
After hearing what Long Haochen said about their success in killing the green double-sword demon, Ye Hua couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face. However, the smile soon turned into irritation.
"Idiot, who asked you to agree to that guy's promise? You were deceived."
Long Haochen was stunned and said: "Teacher, Lin Xin seems to be quite sincere, and the pill he gave me The medicine is really good!"
Ye Hua patted his forehead, sighed, and said, "You are still too young. Do you think you have little chance of getting into the top three? It doesn’t matter if you promise him?”
Long Haochen didn't say anything, but he knew that he did have such thoughts at that time.
"You, you, let me tell you what you are good at. Since he has insight, he must have seen your age and cultivation. You are only fourteen years old. If you can't do it this time, how can you do it next time? Can't he reach the top three in this competition? I'm sure that guy must be no more than twenty years old and can participate in another trial. Moreover, his magic level may not be that simple."
Long Haochen lowered his head, "I'm sorry, teacher. I was wrong."
Ye Hua breathed heavily, "Forget it, what else can I do since I have already agreed. A true man promises a thousand dollars. Show me the elixir he gave you."
Long Haochen hurriedly handed over the elixir. The three elixirs and the powerful pill were taken out from the forget-me-not and handed to Ye Hua. "Hey, that kid has a bit of a conscience. These are all fourth-level elixirs. I'm afraid I can't even buy these bottles with 100,000 gold coins. If he really refined them, he can still make them even if the magic is not enough. Your teammate. Take it away and work harder these two days. The goal I set for you is very simple, enter the finals.”
There are no spectators in the Demon Hunting Team selection competition. Because in the future, all members of the demon hunting group will have to face demons. Their information must be kept confidential. Therefore, for ordinary people, although they know that such a grand event exists, they have no idea about the process and results.
Long Haochen's number plate is ninety-seven, which is the same as his innate spiritual power number. Li Xin is ninety-eight.
The day of the competition finally arrived. Early in the morning, Ye Hua took the two of them to the Holy Alliance Trial Ground.
The entire Grand Trial Ground was built with the six major temples in mind, so the six trial grounds inside also belong to the six major temples. Long Haochen and the others reported directly to the knight training ground with their number plates. Ye Hua, as their teacher, showed the letter of introduction given by the governor of Haoyue City and the confirmation letter of the Haoyue Knight branch, so they could accompany them to enter. Of course, each city can only have one teacher per occupation.
As reported yesterday, the bone age test had been completed, so they can enter directly after checking the number plate today.
"Brother Yehua, we meet again." Guiying and Guiwu, father and son, happened to be reporting behind Long Haochen and the others.
Ye Hua's eyes turned cold and he said calmly: "You'd better pray that your son doesn't run into Haochen." After saying this, he led Long Haochen and Li Xin and walked inside.
The ghost said coldly: "You are the one who should be worried."
Ye Hua stopped for a moment and said without looking back: "Also, wash your face Clean so that I don’t get my hands dirty when the time comes.”
"You..." Anger appeared on Guiying's face, and he was about to explode. Ye Hua had already walked in with Long Haochen and Li Xin.
The Great Holy Alliance Trial Ground is not open-air. There is a huge dome twenty feet above each trial ground, covering the trial ground below with a diameter of 300 meters. If you look down from the sky, you can see that the Holy Alliance Grand Trial Ground below is presented as six huge semicircular bulges.
As soon as you enter the knight's trial ground, strong fluctuations of magic elements are rushing towards your face. The magic elements here seem to be close to reality. Although they are not offensive, they bring an invisible pressure to people.
On the dome above, you can vaguely see huge magic symbols. Complex magic circles can be seen everywhere, obviously with different functions.
In the center of the trial ground is a huge square with a diameter of two hundred meters. The ground is covered with loess. It is said that there is also a large magic circle under the loess. No matter how damaged the loess is, it can be restored in a short time.
Surrounding the square is a circle of stands, among which the tallest stand stands out. It is the rostrum of the trial ground.
"What a strong elemental fluctuation!" Li Xin exclaimed.
