Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 88 Earth Dragon Trapped Elephant Formation vs Wind and Fire Formation

After hearing the sound, Lin Chen walked onto the stage.

The one Lin Chen was fighting against was a senior brother from Qifeng who had entered the sect three years earlier and had already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining.

"You are Lin Chen? Junior brother... you are quite famous!"

The senior brother raised the corner of his mouth and joked.

Lin Chen felt a little helpless after hearing this, but still bowed and said:
"Brother has practiced for three years longer than me, please show some mercy..."

"Haha, no problem! Today I'll show you that these three years since we entered the sect...we haven't spent them in vain!"

Although he was polite in words, this Senior Brother Qifeng showed no mercy.

As the elder announced the start of the competition, he took the lead.

Seven or eight flying swords rose into the air and surrounded Lin Chen from several angles.

"Tsk tsk, seven flying swords, are they all low-grade magical weapons?"

"The disciple of Qifeng is indeed of extraordinary wealth..."

Lin Chen said secretly in his heart, and then used his true energy to control the weapon, and a medium-grade magical long sword hung in front of him.

"You have to win, but you can't appear too relaxed, otherwise it will easily arouse suspicion..."

Lin Chen adopted a roundabout strategy.

The wood element's true essence completely protects itself.

At the same time, the long swords and magic weapons in the air kept colliding with each other, and the sound of golden swords clashing could be heard.

Even if he was hit by a long sword occasionally, it would not be able to penetrate the protective true energy.

Lin Chen took the initiative and gradually consumed his energy.

However, in just a few moments, the true energy of Senior Brother Qifeng in front of him had been consumed too much.

On the other hand, Lin Chen has been retreating in order to advance, taking steady steps, and slowly consuming the true energy of Senior Brother Qi Feng.

In the audience, many elders were paying close attention to this battle.

“Tsk tsk, that kid called Lin Chen is going to win!”

"That's right. He seems to be at a disadvantage, but in fact his steps are not disordered at all... On the other hand, the disciple from Qi Peak is controlling seven flying swords at the same time, and his true energy is exhausted!"

"Lin Chen's consumption tactic is quite appropriate."

Several elders from the inner sect were cracking melon seeds, eating fruits and snacks, and making comments from time to time.

"If I'm not mistaken... that kid named Lin Chen, his cultivation has probably reached the ninth level of Qi Refining?"

"How long has he been practicing? Less than a year... Can a top-grade dual spiritual root achieve this level?"

An elder who had completed his foundation building asked in confusion.

"Maybe that old man Han gave him some cultivation elixirs? After all, he is the last disciple... Old man Han is not a stingy person."

While the elders were talking, the winner had already been decided on the stage.

Brother Qifeng's true energy was running out, so Lin Chen used his true energy to control the sword and easily deployed his body-protecting true energy.

Finally it stopped at Senior Brother Qifeng's neck.

"Brother, thank you for letting me!"

Lin Chen bowed his hands, very politely.

"Junior Brother Lin, this is really a good method..."

Senior Brother Qifeng was very annoyed. It seemed that his true energy had been exhausted by Lin Chen.

But only he knew how the whole competition went.

From the moment he released seven flying swords at the beginning, it was as if he was trapped in a huge net.

In this net, no matter how he attacked, Lin Chen could always easily dodge it.

This feeling... is so frustrating to lose!
……

After winning, Lin Chen stepped down from the stage and quietly recovered his true energy and magic power.

After the first round of competition, half of the thirty-two disciples had already been eliminated.

Among the new disciples, only Lin Chen and Li Zhenqian were left.

After resting for about half an hour, the second round of competition began.

Lin Chen still won very easily, using the tactics of attrition to defeat an eighth-level Qi Refining disciple.

After the fight, Lin Chen went to the fourth arena and watched Huang Xin's match.

Huang Xin lost in the competition from 64 to the top 32.

His opponent was an outer sect disciple at the fourth level of Qi Refining. The difference in true essence was too great, and even with the mid-grade magic weapon given by Lin Chen, Huang Xin would still find it difficult to defeat him.

After seeing Lin Chen watching the battle, Huang Xin's eyes turned red and he whispered:
"Senior Brother Lin, I'm sorry to disappoint you..."

Lin Chen shook his head and gently brushed away the dirt on Huang Xin's clothes.

"Ah Xin, you have only been practicing for a short time... In my opinion, you will be able to enter the inner gate after waiting for another three years." He comforted her.

Although Huang Xin still felt regretful after hearing this, he felt much better.

With a firm look in his eyes, he said:

"Brother Lin, I will practice hard!"

Lin Chen nodded slightly and returned to the third arena.

Next, the third round of competition will start, with eight to four, to determine the top four disciples under the five-year stage.

Lin Chen didn't have to spend much effort to defeat another senior brother who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

At this point, the top four contestants have been decided.

What surprised Lin Chen was that, in addition to him, Li Zhenqian also made it into the top four.

Moreover, he happened to be his opponent in the next game.

"The sect competition, the semi-finals of the third ring, disciple number 19 versus disciple number 28..."

Following the elder’s announcement, two senior brothers from the previous term came on stage together.

These two brothers both come from Zhenfeng.

At the first moment of the semi-final, two disciples from the Zhenfeng formed a formation at the same time.

On the stage, two beams of light were seen confronting each other.

On one side, a dragon formed by the condensation of earth essence rose up as if holding up the sky, emitting bursts of dragon roars.

On the other side, there was a raging fire, and no weeds could grow within a ten-foot radius around the arena.

"Earth Dragon Trapped Elephant Formation, Wind and Fire Blazing Prairie Formation... kind of interesting..."

Lin Chen stood under the arena, watching the fight between the two Zhenfeng brothers with great interest.

What the two of them formed was a battle formation.

The battle formation is a simple formation, which is arranged by the formation master with himself as the center of the formation.

After preparing the formation plate in advance, the formation master's combat power will be greatly improved within the battle formation range.

If a battle formation master who has reached the perfection of Qi training prepares a battle formation in advance, even a cultivator who has just entered the foundation-building stage will find it difficult to defeat him in a short period of time.

Both of them have achieved perfect Qi Refining and have some accomplishments in formation.

"Tsk tsk, the Earth Dragon Elephant Trapping Formation is going to win after all..."

Lin Chen only watched for a moment and had already determined the outcome of the game.

The reason is simple. In this 100-meter arena, the Earth Dragon Elephant Trapping Formation has a much greater advantage.

It uses retreat as a means of advance, takes the earth element of the earth veins as its root, and its formation is defensive rather than offensive.

In comparison, the Wind and Fire Prairie Formation focuses more on attacking, and is very advantageous in long-distance battles.

Sure enough, the raging fire on the ring was swallowed up by a huge earth dragon.

The senior brother who used the Wind and Fire Formation showed an unwilling look on his face and said with a pale face: "I lost..."

The winner has a look of joy on his face.

In his opinion, after winning this semi-final, taking first place in the third arena competition is just around the corner.

"Well, this Earth Dragon Confining Elephant Formation is a problem... If we let it successfully form the formation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to defeat it without showing the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Stage..."

Lin Chen didn't notice Li Zhenqian in the distance, he was already studying his opponent in the final.

After a fierce battle, the 100-meter-square arena was in ruins.

The clan leader Wang Changchun leaped lightly, and the torn earth was pieced together again.

The originally dilapidated arena was completely renewed in a moment with the help of magic.

"Tsk tsk, what a wonderful control of true energy."

Lin Chen looked surprised.

After the arena was restored, an elder spoke up:

"The next match will be between Li Zhenqian and...Lin Chen!"
