Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 105: A small test of the power to crush the withered
Talents participating in the competition need to fill in their personal information and receive their personal competition numbers from their respective group referees.

Because the people of Liuyun Sect have been quite polite to Pangbo and others in recent days, they filled in Liuyun Sect in the sect section. This way, it will be beneficial to Liuyun Sect after they get a ranking.

After doing all these things, the group elimination rounds began soon.

Among them, Cao Cao's luck was undoubtedly the worst, as he was assigned to a death group with many strong people.

In addition, Cao Cao's current strength was the worst among the chat group, only equivalent to the early Baoyuan realm, and he was focused on improving his cultivation, but did not learn any fighting methods, so he only won one of the first ten battles and was eventually eliminated;
As for Yue Buqun, who was in the middle stage of Bao Yuan Realm, although his performance was not very impressive, he relied on his superb Huashan swordsmanship and good luck to win eight out of ten battles and finally made it through the first round of eliminations.

Pang Bo, Ye Chen, Han Li and Xiao Yan undoubtedly had the best luck. There were no strong opponents in the groups they were in, and Han Li did not meet Pang Bo in the same group, so it was quite easy for them to pass the first round of eliminations.

The only thing worth mentioning is that Han Li met the genius who was ranked 13th in the previous Hidden Dragon Ranking. After a fierce battle, Han Li deliberately revealed his flaws and lost to the opponent, which made Pang Bo and Xiao Yan complain for a long time.

As for the person who had the most amazing performance in the first round among the chat group, it was undoubtedly Meng Huan from the world of Flying Sword Asking the Way!
You know, Meng Huan was able to break through the void and ascend to heaven in the daytime. He was a rare genius in that small world that was rarely seen in thousands or tens of thousands of years. After entering the Mingyao World, he joined a top sect like the Yuding Sect. Therefore, he had cultivated to the second level of Yuanshen in a very short time. With his realm, even if his strength was suppressed to the peak of Baoyuan Realm, he would not be able to deal with these guys in their twenties.

Fortunately, the battles with these geniuses made him feel some of the feelings he had in his hometown world before, so he did not crush those geniuses directly, but chose to have a brief exchange with them.

But even so, Meng Huan's fighting was quick and decisive. Even Mo Yan, the eldest disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect, was defeated by him easily and decisively!
This also shocked countless warriors who were watching, and they even listed Meng Huan and another peerless genius Tuoba Ku as the two biggest dark horses in this year's Hidden Dragon Ranking competition!

Compared with Meng Huan, Pang Bo and others who did not show their full strength in the first round of eliminations and did not defeat strong opponents are undoubtedly much inferior.

After the first round of knockout matches officially ended, the number of people who scored full marks in each group ranged from two to eight.

After all, there are powerful masters in each group. Once two masters meet, one of them will inevitably fail.

Just like Mo Yan who met Meng Huan before, if he hadn't met Meng Huan, it would have been an easy thing for him to win ten games in a row, but his luck was too bad.

In the first round of eliminations, Liuyun Sect's genius Zhu Mei was eliminated, as was Cao Cao, but everyone else advanced successfully.

After resting for about an hour, the second round of eliminations began soon.

According to the competition rules, any two of the remaining twelve groups will be merged together to proceed to the second round of eliminations.

According to the rules of the competition, there are twenty-four people in each of the six newest groups, and in the end twelve people will advance and become the talented people on the list of this year's Hidden Dragon List competition.

Twenty-four people are competing for twelve places, which seems to have a 50% success rate, but the competition is undoubtedly extremely cruel.

After all, there are only six groups left, and almost every group has extremely powerful masters. It will naturally be more difficult for other weaker geniuses to compete for the remaining places.

In this grouping, the luck of the chat group was still pretty good. Except for Pang Bo, Han Li and Meng Huan who were all assigned to one group, Ye Chen was assigned to six groups, and Xiao Yan was assigned to three groups.

After giving the geniuses a short break, the second round of eliminations officially began soon.

……

"The first match, Han Li versus Mo Yan!"

The first game of the first round of a group began, and both opponents were no unknown players.

Among them, Mo Yan is the eldest disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect. Although he was defeated by Meng Huan before, he is still a popular candidate for the top ten in the overall ranking.

Although the other Han Li was not well-known before, he was able to win nine games in a row in the original group, so his strength was naturally extremely strong.

Of course, the people watching the battle did not think that Han Li could defeat Mo Yan, but were all guessing how much strength Han Li could make Mo Yan use.

Pangbo, who was preparing for a battle, heard the discussions of the people around him and immediately felt dissatisfied.

In the chat group.

[Pang Bo: @Han Li, I know you didn't intend to use all your strength in the competition, but I don't like the guy Mo Yan who's opposite you. He's just the eldest disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect, and he dares to covet Brother Ye Chen's wife. So Han Li, you must defeat him this time, otherwise we won't be brothers anymore! ]

[Xiao Yan: Yes, Brother Han! Look at how arrogant this guy is. Let's teach him a lesson!]

On the arena, Han Li and Mo Yan stood fifty meters apart.

After seeing what Pang Bo and Xiao Yan said in the chat group, Han Li couldn't help but glance at Mo Yan on the opposite side.

With his strength, even if he was suppressed to a level equivalent to the peak of Baoyuan Realm, it would be a very easy thing to defeat Mo Yan.

However, before Pangbo spoke, he really planned to show off his flaws and admit defeat after seeing Mo Yan's all-powerful magic skills. After all, as long as he could make it into the top 72, the outcome of the game was not very important to him.

But since Pang Bo and Xiao Yan had both spoken, he could only suffer for Mo Yan.

And the other side.

"Boy, don't blame me for being cruel!"

Mo Yan looked at Han Li from a distance, with a dark light shining in his eyes. At the same time, he secretly thought in his heart: "If you want to blame someone, just blame you for being with that Meng Huan. He made me lose face, so I will not let you pass the elimination round!"

Noticing Mo Yan's eyes, a cold light flashed in Han Li's eyes.

He was naturally familiar with Mo Yan's scheming look. If this was the mortal world, he would have made Mo Yan disappear completely long ago.

However, now is the critical stage of the Hidden Dragon Ranking competition, and he does not want to cause any trouble. Instead, he has made up his mind to teach Mo Yan a severe lesson after the battle begins.

The battle soon began.

Mo Yan quickly activated the Demonic Eye and began to carefully look for flaws in Han Li.

The All-Seeing Demon Eye is extremely mysterious. It can see through the weaknesses of things and make them exposed. It is extremely powerful, enough to allow the weak to defeat the strong.

But just after Mo Yan used the All-Seeing Demonic Eyes to observe the flaws in Han Li, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

"This is impossible!"

Mo Yan looked at Han Li in disbelief: "What kind of technique are you practicing that doesn't even have a flaw?"

You know, even Meng Huan, who defeated him before, was able to observe a weakness, but with his strength he was simply unable to break that weakness.

But now, Han Li's aura was actually integrated as one, without any flaws at all. This was really too unbelievable.

"Oh? Not a single flaw?"

After hearing Mo Yan's words, Han Li's heart couldn't help but move slightly: "Not bad! It's worth it that I used the enlightenment blessing function many times in the chat group to improve my skills. Now I have finally taken a small step forward in my ability to save my life!"

Thinking of this, the dark-skinned Han Li couldn't help but show Mo Yan a smile that he thought was quite kind, and then said: "Actually, my strength is still very weak, please give me more guidance!"

When Mo Yan heard Han Li's words, they were undoubtedly a naked provocation to him.

"Humph!"

Mo Yan said in a cold voice: "Just because your technique has no flaws doesn't mean you don't have any flaws! With your strength, even if you don't have any flaws, you definitely won't be able to hold out against me for long!"

"Phantom Finger!" Before he finished speaking, Mo Yan immediately launched a sneak attack.

This is his fighting style, so people who are familiar with him will be more or less on guard against it.

Everyone thought that Han Li would suffer a great loss when he was caught off guard, or even be defeated by Mo Yan in one move, but what they didn't expect was that Han Li's speed of action was even faster than Mo Yan's. Before Mo Yan's Phantom Finger was fully formed, Han Li had already launched his attack in advance.

"Oh my god, these two have no moral principles at all!"

"These two are really too despicable... No, they are too cautious. They really don't behave like masters!"

……

In the audience, countless warriors were talking about the battle between Han Li and Mo Yan after seeing it.

And as everyone was talking, the two sides in the battle ended the fight very quickly.

Han Li appeared behind Mo Yan in a flash, then held a black brick-shaped piece of metal and smashed it hard on the back of Mo Yan's head.

The speed is so fast that it is simply unbelievable.

After being hit on the back of his head by the black brick in Han Li's hand, Mo Yan fell to the ground instantly! In fact, if Mo Yan hadn't seen the bad situation and gathered his internal energy in time, he might have been seriously injured and unconscious.

After seeing Han Li defeat Mo Yan, the countless warriors watching the match were once again shocked, and praised Han Li as the third dark horse in this Hidden Dragon Ranking competition.

As time passed, battles took place one after another, and Ye Chen and others in the chat group gradually began to emerge.

The powerful Meng Huan still rode away from the others;
Although Han Li's performance was no longer fierce, no one dared to underestimate him since he had just defeated Mo Yan, the chief disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect.

Ye Chen also quickly defeated Bing Ling, the eldest disciple of Bing Jue Sect who was ranked seventh on the previous Hidden Dragon Ranking, and people witnessed his equally incredible strength;

As for Xiao Yan, he was as lucky as ever. Even in the second round of eliminations, he did not encounter any strong opponents. The strongest one was only a genius ranked in the top 20 in the previous Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition. Naturally, he was no match for him.
Yue Buqun, the weakest one, was defeated by several powerful geniuses, but according to the points rules, he also has the opportunity to break into the top 72 of the Hidden Dragon List!
And just like that, the second round of eliminations soon came to the last game.

Most of the battles in this final game were rather unremarkable, and the only one that deserved everyone's attention was the battle between Pangbo and Tuoba Ku in the first group.

When mentioning Pangbo and Tuoba Ku, we must mention Mo Yan, the eldest disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect!

As the eldest disciple of the Feitian Demon Sect, Mo Yan's strength is undoubtedly extremely powerful, but his luck does not seem to be very good.

Because after being defeated by Han Li, he met Pang Bo and Tuoba Ku successively, and was defeated by these two people again.

It is precisely because of this that many people even think that Mo Yan is just a name with no substance and that his real strength is not very strong, which makes Mo Yan extremely sad and angry.

Fortunately, Mo Yan met Qian Yun, the second disciple of Luoxia Sect again. After successfully defeating the powerful Qian Yun, no one questioned his strength anymore.

After that, everyone naturally paid more attention to Pangbo and Tuoba Ku, who defeated Mo Yan.

Now that these two masters have met each other, it has naturally attracted the attention of countless people.

Tuoba Ku defeated Mo Yan before by relying on his strong defense. Even Mo Yan's strongest attack did not pose a fatal threat to Tuoba Ku.

Pang Bo defeated Mo Yan by relying on his terrifying attacks, seriously injuring Mo Yan with just three punches!

In addition, Pangbo and Tuoba Ku have very similar fighting styles, both relying on their powerful physical strength, which naturally attracted the attention of the spectators.

"The last match, Pangbo vs. Tuoba Ku!"

As the referee's voice sounded, almost everyone present focused their attention on these two super geniuses.

On the fighting arena, Pangbo and Tuoba Ku were dozens of meters apart.

"Hahaha!"

Tuoba Ku looked at Pangbo from a distance and said, "Finally, I met another master. It's really boring to fight with them. It's more interesting to fight with a master like you!"

"I saw you fight before!"

Pang Bo also smiled and said: "Your defense is indeed very strong. Even Mo Yan's full-strength attack can't break it!"

"But what I want to tell you is that only offense is the best defense. Otherwise, no matter how strong your defense is, you will only be a target for others!"

"Hahaha, that depends on whether you have the strength to break my defense!"

Tuoba laughed bitterly and then rushed directly towards Pangbo.

Pangbo on the other side naturally did not want to be outdone, and the two soon engaged in a fight.

"Barbaric Divine Fist!"

Tuoba Ku threw a punch, dragons roared and tigers howled, and the air collapsed.

"Demon Emperor Fist!"

Pangbo threw a punch with the power of a mountain, unstoppable!
"interesting!"

After seeing Pangbo's terrifying fist power, Tuoba Ku's eyes flashed with extreme excitement. Since leaving his hometown, he had never encountered such a tough opponent in the same level.

On the other hand, after feeling Tuoba Ku's powerful strength, Pang Bo was also extremely impressed.

Tuoba Ku's strength is indeed extraordinary. If he had not learned the Demon Emperor's ancient scripture, his strength would at most be equal to that of the opponent, and it would definitely be extremely difficult for him to win.

Fortunately, he had been practicing hard during this period of time. After obtaining the Demon Emperor's Ancient Scripture, he quickly used the enlightenment blessing function in the chat group to master several of the attack methods, which allowed him to be at ease in battle.

In less than a moment, Tuoba Ku finally used his killer move, but still failed to cause any harm to Pangbo.

After seeing Tuoba Ku's full strength, Pangbo quickly exerted his strength to defeat him.

After this battle, Pangbo's terrifying strength caused an uproar, and he even became a popular candidate for the top three.

……

After the battle between Pangbo and Tuoba Ku ended, the second round of eliminations was completely over.

"Everyone who is not involved, leave!"

Chief referee Luo Jiacheng quickly stood up and shouted loudly.

After hearing what the chief referee said, the geniuses ranked outside the top twelve in each group left the stage one after another, leaving only the seventy-two geniuses on the list of this year's Hidden Dragon Ranking.

"All right!"

Chief referee Luo Jiacheng, who was very familiar with the competition process, quickly continued, "All of you should stand on the competition stage now and prepare to receive the baptism of the dragon's energy!"

After hearing this, many geniuses jumped onto the arena.

Everyone in the chat group had long been very curious about the dragon's energy, so naturally they jumped onto the arena with the others.

Soon, dragon-shaped phantoms began to appear on the bodies of the geniuses on the previous Hidden Dragon Ranking. These dragon-shaped phantoms were large and small, with the large ones being as long as 20 to 30 feet, and the small ones being as long as 15 to 20 feet.

After a while...

A faint sound of a dragon's roar was heard from the abyss between the arenas, followed by streams of dragon-shaped air currents that rushed out from it, quickly rushing into the bodies of the people present, and then coming out again, floating outside the body together with those people before.

"Ok?"

After feeling the blessing of the dragon vein energy on his own state, Han Li couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise on his face. Then he thought secretly in his heart: "This dragon vein energy is still very helpful to me. It seems that I have to change my plan next!"

"Besides, with the group leader in charge this time, even if some troubles arise, they can be easily resolved!"

A strange look flashed in the eyes of Pang Bo and others standing around Han Li, and then a strong fighting spirit emerged.

Only Meng Huan, who had the strongest strength, didn't care too much about the dragon vein energy in his body at this time.

After all, his realm at this moment is extremely high, and he is not too far from becoming an immortal, so naturally he would not care too much about the dragon vein energy.

……

In the audience seats not far away, the high-ranking officials of Ziyang Sect, who had a life-and-death feud with Liuyun Sect, looked at Ye Chen standing on the arena, as well as Pang Bo and others beside Ye Chen, and endless murderous intent quickly flashed in their eyes.

"metropolitan!"

The Grand Elder of Ziyang Sect whispered, "Ye Chen is too strong. It will be no problem for him to get into the top 20. Even the top 10 is a good possibility!"

"As for those people around him, they probably have a close relationship with him. If we give them more time to grow, then our Ziyang Sect will definitely be suppressed by the Liuyun Sect in the future!"

"Do not worry!"

The Grand Elder of Ziyang Sect quickly transmitted his message: "We still need to find out how those people around Ye Chen appeared. After we find out their origins, it won't be too late for us to take action!"
