Chapter 69: Artoria
Dragon Nest?
As soon as Mo Wen stepped out of the light pillar, he found that there were people all around him, probably tens of thousands of people surrounding him. In the middle, there is an open space. The area is quite large, probably as big as hundreds of football fields. However, due to the influence of the law of space, the open space does not feel large from the outside, but it is a different feeling when you are in it.
The top ten ranking match on the Heavenly Ranking was not in Mechanical Maze, but in the inner city of Dragon City. At a glance, Mo Wen spotted a few familiar people.
"I will serve as the referee for the top ten ranking matches on the Heavenly Ranking. You are already familiar with the rules, so I won't elaborate on them."
An old man in black robes appeared on the field, holding a scepter representing the referee's identity in his hand, and exuding a vague and terrifying aura. This person is definitely a warrior in the realm of immortality. Although his aura is vague, every trace of it makes people feel the pressure of a mountain. Standing there, he seems to be integrated with the entire world. , every move is filled with great pressure.
That should be a veteran in Tianhua Palace. With such a cultivation level, he has the status of a senior even in Tianhua Palace.
I saw the referee pointing his scepter forward, and the entire square suddenly lit up with bursts of light. In an instant, ten arenas appeared in the square, and each arena had a number on it, from one to ten. , arranged all the way.
Mo Wen had known the rules of the Heavenly Ranking Ranking Competition before. The ten arenas represented the final rankings. The contestants could choose any arena to defend. If they could defend the arena, it would be equivalent to winning the corresponding ranking. .
For example, if someone wants to compete for the first place, he can take the lead in occupying the ring numbered first, and then wait for others to challenge him. If he can always hold the number one ring, then he will be the well-deserved number one.
Every contestant is eligible to participate in any arena challenge. However, once the challenge fails, you cannot continue to challenge the same person.
For example, Mo Wen occupied the first stage, and Gu Jingman came on stage to compete for the first stage. If she fails the challenge, then in the next challenge. She could no longer compete with Mo Wen. Even if Mo Wen was kicked out of the first arena and chose the second arena, Gu Jingman, as the loser, would not be able to challenge Mo Wen's second arena, but she would be qualified to challenge anyone else. Arena, including the first arena.
Theoretically, everyone can fail the ring challenge nine times. Until no one can challenge it.
Of course, if Mo Wen occupies the first ring and is successfully challenged by Gu Jingman, then he can no longer challenge Gu Jingman's ring.
Relatively speaking, this rule is fair. Everyone has a chance, but everyone only has one chance relative to the same person. Although this rule is thorough, there is also an element of luck involved. In any case, the final ranking determines everything.
Ten arenas appeared in front of ten contestants. At this time, everyone has to make a choice. Although the No. 1 arena is tempting, you must have the strength to hold it.
Ten people are relatively stable. No one is in a hurry to enter the ring. With such rules, the choice will be important. If the choice is wrong, it may affect the final ranking. Moreover, the first person to enter the ring will definitely face more challenges. Unless he is very confident in himself, he will not easily enter the stage. certainly. The exceptions are the 10th, 9th, or 8th stages, and no contestant with any ambition will target those stages.
"Since you don't choose any of them. Then let me offer some advice."
There was a laugh, followed by a flash of light. A person has appeared on the first stage. He is a handsome young man. The aura exuding from his body is not strong, but he dares to stand on the first stage.
It's him!
Mo Wen was shocked. That young man was none other than the Xin Wuji he met in the Scarlet Star Sect. His target was actually the first stage!
Mo Wen was very surprised, that Xin Wuji had this ability? Ever since Xin Wuji appeared here, Mo Wen felt something strange and wrong.
"That little bug is quite ambitious." A cold light flashed in Anshou's eyes. Naturally, his goal was to be number one. Originally, he wanted to be the first to take the stage, but he didn't want to be overtaken by others.
The other contestants all looked at each other. None of them had a deep impact on Xin Wuji. It seemed that he had exploded with extraordinary strength in the last two days and finally occupied the fifth place in the selection. But if he says he has the strength to compete for first place, many people still don't believe it.
"Hmph, you don't overestimate your capabilities."
The ruthless young master snorted coldly. He had never dared to think about being ranked first. If others didn't know, how could he not know that among the top ten contestants, several were from the Yinwu lineage. The famous strong men, such as the dark hand, the fair-weather monk, and Narcissus, none of them are people he can provoke. This thing that came out of nowhere dared to take the first place. It was simply wishful thinking.
"I don't have any hope in the top three. To be conservative, I'll choose sixth."
The ruthless young master thought for a while, and then set his target at the sixth stage. He didn't care about those who paid attention to the first stage, and flew directly up to the sixth stage. Presumably, there were not many people in the sixth stage. Let him fight.
The advantage of choosing a low first choice is that even if someone else is stronger than him, if that person was too ambitious before and chose a challenge that was too high, and then failed and was seriously injured, then you want to settle for the next best thing and challenge him again. I'm afraid it's not easy either. Not to mention injuries, even if the consumption is larger, it may affect the outcome of a battle.
The ruthless young master feels that his choice of the sixth arena is very safe, and he should be able to hold on to it if nothing happens.
"Since he dares to choose the first stage, he must have something to rely on. That fair-weather monk is so cunning and cunning that he may not take action easily. As for Narcissus, he is also a relatively conservative type, but there are probably not many people who can compete with me for first place. If that’s the case, then I’ll take action first.”
Anshou thought for a while, then smiled, stepped out, and walked directly to the first arena. He is not a timid person, so it doesn't matter if he strikes early, he just wants to fight a few more games. Don't go too far, the president's ex-husband.
"Anshou still has such a personality. Although that person is not flashy, I feel that he is not simple." Narcissus shook his head gently.
That dark hand is also a very famous genius in the Yinwu lineage. His reputation is not above hers. Because he does things neatly and sharply, so in terms of reputation, he is still above hers.
Most of these people from the Yinwu lineage are not named casually. These titles are their titles in the Yinwu lineage. Maybe the warriors from the outside world don't know them, but the warriors from the Yinwu lineage are definitely familiar with them.
"Darcissus, do you feel something?" The meat-and-wine monk came over, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha. In terms of detection ability, Narcissus is the undisputed number one among them.
Narcissus glanced at the meat-and-wine monk, and said calmly: "I vaguely felt that there was a very powerful energy in that person, and that energy made me feel palpitations. But the strange thing is that the energy was looming, and it didn't seem to be very stable. It gives people a feeling of alienation.”
For cultivators, the power they have worked hard to cultivate step by step must be incomparably consistent with themselves, as if they are one body. But the power in that person's body didn't seem to be very harmonious, and some even leaked out uncontrollably. Maybe most people can't tell it, but she can faintly sense it.
"Oh, it seems that this person is not simple." The fair-weather monk looked towards Arena No. 1, which could make Narcissus feel palpitations. The energy was probably quite terrifying. At this time, Anshou had already entered the No. 1 ring, and he wanted to see the final result.
Gu Jingman folded her arms and looked at Arena No. 1 with interest, as if she had no intention of choosing easily.
Mo Wen curled his lips and smiled. He looked at the sixth arena, and the smile on his lips suddenly became a little thicker.
He stepped forward, and the next moment, he appeared on the sixth stage.
"Young Master Wu Wu, we meet again." Mo Wen stood in front of Mr. Qing Wu and said with a smile on his face.
"Mo Wen, you..." Seeing Mo Wen, the ruthless young master went directly to his No. 6 ring, and his expression turned extremely ugly. What did he mean? With Mo Wen's ability, he is probably qualified to compete for the top three. At this time, there is no one in the second and third arenas, but he came to compete with him in the sixth arena. Isn't he deliberately looking for trouble?
"Don't ask, you are seeking death! Do you think that with your current ability, you are qualified to offend the Blood Demon Palace?"
The ruthless young master had a look of resentment on his face. This Mo Wen was obviously slapping him in the face. Ever since he knew about Mo Wen's strength, he no longer wanted to cause trouble for Mo Wen immediately. Of course, if he offended his ruthless young master, he had plenty of ways to kill Mo Wen. Compared with the Blood Demon Palace, Mo Wen was just a little ant.
"What I hate the most is you incompetent people who rely on their wealth and background. Why do you deserve to call yourself a genius of the Yinwu lineage? You are simply embarrassing the geniuses of the Yinwu lineage." Mo Wen sneered. Originally, he thought Although this ruthless young man is vicious, he is still a character, and now it seems that he is nothing more than that.
"He is indeed bringing shame to our Yinwu lineage. It's a pity that the Xuesha Palace has a great reputation. Compared with Young Master Wuxue, he is far behind." A cold voice sounded from the audience, it was Narcissus.
"This incompetent person, in the Yinwu lineage, likes to bully the weak, even if he doesn't say it." The fair-weather monk seemed to dislike the ruthless young master, and he actually spoke up.
The ruthless young master did not expect Narcissus and the fair-weather monk to speak for Mo Wen without giving him face. He suddenly felt humiliated and clenched his fists tightly with a bang. As the son of the master of the Blood Fiend Palace, he was outshone by the Bloodless Young Master in every aspect of the sect. The thing he was most taboo about was others comparing him to the Bloodless Young Master.
