Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 19 Advance to the Top Eight (asking for monthly ticket)

"clang!"

The clear ringing of bells echoed back and forth in the venue, and the host's voice rang in Su Yu's ears:

"The round of 64 to 32 has concluded. Now we begin the next round of 32 to 16. Please invite contestants 33 and 80 to the first stage, contestants 5 and 68 to the second stage, and contestants 1 and ..."

Su Yu closed the information, the space distorted slightly, and the next second he was on the stage.

As soon as he stepped onto the ring, he opened the five fingers of his right hand and grabbed. Countless blue light spots emerged and quickly gathered into blue streams that formed a vortex around him. A stream of clear water gushed out of the vortex.

The vortex expanded rapidly, and the water column also expanded rapidly. Soon, like a reservoir with the floodgates opened, tons of clear water poured into the ring.

"interesting!"

Zhou Xuan was quite surprised that Su Yu had such a skill besides swordsmanship. He calmly took out a blue bead and hung it above his head, which then dropped layers of transparent water waves to protect him. He then took out a platinum gourd and held it in his hand, saying with a smile:

"Your swordsmanship is very exquisite. I am ashamed of myself. But I also have a sword. Please appreciate it!"

After he finished speaking, he opened his mouth and spurted out a breath of essence. The platinum gourd in his hand flew out of his hand and swelled up in the wind. A platinum sword light spurted out from the mouth of the gourd and turned into a vortex. Flying swords spurted out from it and hung in front of him. In the blink of an eye, a total of 108 flying swords were ejected.

Zhou Xuan looked respectful and pointed at Su Yu:

"Please baby, turn around!"

108 flying swords shot up into the sky and turned into streams of light that swooped down.

Su Yu, who was activating the Zhenhai Pearl, was startled when he saw this scene. He opened his mouth and the Ice Soul Sword flew out. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a ten-meter sword rainbow and rushed forward.

The ten-meter sword rainbow intertwined with the dense sword rain. In an instant, dense and crisp clanging sounds rang out, countless sparks flew, and from time to time, flying swords were knocked away and fell.

"The flying sword is not of high quality!"

But there were too many flying swords in the gourd, and the sword rainbow was quickly submerged.

A few seconds later, the sword rainbow broke through the sword rain and rose into the air, followed by the dense sword rain.

"Go!"

Su Yu pointed his sword, urging Bingpo to fly backwards flexibly.

In an instant, there was another dense clanging sound, and two gourd flying swords fell.

After three rounds of back and forth, no less than ten gourd flying swords were shot down, but the Bingpo sword remained sharp.

Zhou Xuan's expression was slightly solemn:

"Your swordsmanship is indeed excellent. No one in this competition can match you in terms of swordsmanship, but this is not a sword fight!"

He stretched out his hand and pressed the gourd above his head, pointing at Su Yu:

"Please baby, turn around!"

The gourd flying sword that was chasing Bingpo suddenly turned around and flew towards Su Yu's body.

Zhou Xuan was full of confidence, holding the flying sword gourd in his hand. In the past, when sparring, he only needed to raise it and it would automatically search for the enemy. No one could withstand the siege of 108 second-level flying swords. How could a second-tier player withstand it with only one flying sword?

Bingpo quickly turned around, caught up with the gourd flying sword and killed it.

"Disperse!"

The gourd flying swords that had merged into a stream quickly dispersed and flew over.

Su Yu stretched out his hand and pressed it into the water without hesitation. Invisible waves exploded, and the water that had submerged the arena for five or six meters suddenly formed waves without wind, and a wall of water rose before his eyes.

The gourd flying sword easily penetrated the water wall, followed by the second layer of water wall and the third layer of water wall.

After breaking through five layers of water walls, he arrived in front of Su Yu. He raised his hand and a purple hand exploded with a width of ten feet. More than a dozen gourd flying swords flew into the water right in front of him, but forty or fifty gourd flying swords rushed up from the other two directions and pierced the protective air shield. In an instant, forty or fifty gourd flying swords with a damage of about 160 floated up, and the protective air shield with a defense of up to nine thousand was instantly reduced to a thin layer, and the defense was less than one thousand.

Su Yu raised his hand without hesitation, picked up the Ice Soul that flew in front of him and slashed it with a sword.

"clang!"

A gourd flying sword exploded, and his wrist turned like lightning, with sparks exploding, and five gourd flying swords were accurately shot into the water.

These gourd flying swords are not driven by normal cultivators, but are controlled by flying sword gourds. They have limited spiritual power. After being flown, they stagger and fall into the water. If no one interferes, they can recover their spiritual power and be driven again to join the siege.

But at this time the entire arena was submerged in water, and these gourd flying swords fell into the water and were suppressed and isolated by him, unable to fly back into the gourd.

The remaining gourd flying swords brushed past him, flew backwards and shot towards him again.

Su Yu swung his sword expressionlessly, and accurately shot away the five gourd flying swords again. The remaining flying swords shot towards him and submerged him. His robes were shining, but they were not damaged at all.

Zhou Xuan was extremely surprised:

"High quality cassock?"

The flying sword has an attack of about 160, and the robe adds 200 physique, which means that damage below 200 cannot break the defense.

Seeing this, Su Yu felt relieved. The light of the Ice Soul Sword swept back and forth, sweeping away eleven gourd flying swords in one breath.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Xuan decisively slapped the flying sword gourd with his palm. Spiritual patterns and veins lit up on the surface of the gourd. The remaining forty-eight flying swords in the gourd suddenly lit up, their power increased greatly, and they merged into a torrent of flying swords and pounced again.

Su Yu had no expression on his face, his eyes only focused on the torrent of flying swords rushing towards him. The moment they reached him, he swung his sword straight forward, and there was another dense stream of crisp clanging sounds, and seven gourd-shaped flying swords burst out.
-
64-
63-
262
The damage instantly exceeded the critical value, and the Black Water Mysterious Pearl triggered a layer of shield, which was instantly torn apart by the remaining gourd flying swords. The next second, the protective air shield of the robe rose, and dense damage floated up, and the protective air shield was depleted by more than 3,000 in one breath.

"So many defensive measures?"

"I don't believe it anymore."

Zhou Xuan sprayed a breath of essence on the flying sword gourd, then collected his mind and took out a palm-sized green hill. He sprayed a breath of essence on it, stretched out his hand and threw it. The hill shot up into the sky and expanded rapidly, turning into a mountain peak and slowly rotating. Circles of invisible air waves were spread out. This was another sixth-level magic weapon.

However, when Zhou Xuan finally unfolded the mountain, he looked down at the other end of the arena and was stunned:
"What about people?"

Then his face changed. The huge arena had been submerged in water without him noticing, and the water was nearly 20 to 30 meters deep.

"swirl!"

A voice came from nowhere, and the water in the center of the arena swirled to form a huge whirlpool.

"Tornado!"

The vortex quickly contracted inward and rose, forming a waterspout tens of meters high. Su Yu emerged from the waterspout. He looked at Zhou Xuan and smiled slightly:
"I've let you fight for so long, it's my turn now."

He stretched out his hand and grabbed, and countless whirlpools as wide as feet appeared on the water surface under Zhou Xuan's feet, and water arrows as thick as arms shot up into the sky.

"What kind of spell is this?"

Although he was confused, he did not slow down. Zhou Xuan stretched out his hand without hesitation and pointed, and the fully unfolded hundred-foot mountain smashed towards the waterspout.

"boom!"

The waterspout collapsed like a rotten wood, but the people had already disappeared, and the water arrows condensed on the water surface did not disappear and shot up.

Zhou Xuan controlled the air, but there were too many water arrows, which rushed over densely and drowned him.

After the first wave ended, he saw that the protective light had only lost less than 2,000 defenses, and said in surprise:

"That's it?"

"besides."

Su Yu emerged from the water from another corner of the arena, and with a wave of his hand, dense whirlpools appeared on the water surface, and water arrows shot out from the sky again.

The damage was lower than expected, but Zhou Xuanli ignored it and urged the flying sword gourd to attack while retracting the hill.

The remaining twenty or so gourd flying swords rushed towards him. Su Yu retreated into the water. The speed of the gourd flying swords slowed down slightly when they entered the water. However, Su Yu was in his own home turf in the water and was not affected at all. He easily knocked the gourd flying swords away.

When Zhou Xuan took back Xiaoshan, he found that only a few of the gourd flying swords were left. "Wait!"

At this time he suddenly realized that his advantage had been lost without his knowledge.

But Su Yu was not distracted and had already urged Bingpo to launch a counterattack.

"Too rough!"

It was not Zhou Xuan who was driving the flying sword in the gourd at all. He was only driving the flying sword gourd magic weapon. The flying sword was supported by the spiritual power of the flying sword gourd itself, and it did not even exert one tenth of the power of the gourd flying sword.

If it was Su Yu who was in charge, he wouldn't use it so rigidly.

He can finely control the flying swords to defend against the enemy. Even if he can only use a few at the same time, the power is completely different.

Zhou Xuan urged the flying sword gourd to take back the remaining flying swords in the gourd for defense, but it was too late. The Bingpo flying sword chased after it and cut and twisted it, successfully knocking them all away before they returned to the flying sword gourd.

Then, Zhou Xuan was left with only a magic seal that looked like a small mountain. It was probably the one he usually used to deal with BOSSes. Although it was powerful, it was too heavy.

Apart from this, he does not have a fourth magic weapon.

Maybe, but it's not suitable for sparring scenarios.

But no matter what, he was no longer able to fight back at this moment.

Continuous water arrows can wear down the opponent's defense. Although the damage is not high, it is continuous and can slowly wear down the opponent's defense.

Finally, after wearing down half of his defense and failing to hit anyone for several consecutive times, Zhou Xuan saw that there was no hope and simply surrendered.

"Narrow victory!"

Returning to his seat, Su Yu ignored the burning gaze behind him and lowered his head to review the battle just now.

"If they had more combat experience, we might not be able to defeat them."

Although we won, it was a close victory.

"You must improve your strength in the next three months, otherwise you might fail the next quiz."

These second-generations are fully equipped with Taoist magic weapons and equipment, but what they lack is their mentality and combat experience. If these two points are improved, their strength will be greatly improved.

I regained my composure and discovered a new message. I opened it and it was from Gu Zhiqiu:
"Brother Su, we've already made it to the top 16. If we win one more round, we'll be rich."

"I'll try."

Close the communication and continue watching the game.

But the more he looked at her, the more solemn her expression became. In this round, all the contestants had mastered their skills and flying swords to the maximum, and he was definitely at the bottom in terms of both cultivation and magic weapons.

Of course, Zhenhaizhu is an exception.

But the Zhenhai Pearl is of too high a grade, and his current cultivation level is too low to bring out its full power.

On the No. 3 arena, one of the contestants took out a red square pot, and out of it flew 36 three-legged fire crows of about level 50, all elite templates. The 36 three-legged fire crows connected together and crossed the air, turning the entire sky above the arena into a fire cloud.

Dense fireballs poured down like a rainstorm, like the end of the world.

On the fourth stage, a contestant took out a black gourd and hung it in the air, and a river poured out. He stood on the river, gathered the water into thunder, and bombarded it wildly.

Their opponents are also strong, and each one is not inferior to He Shoucheng and Zhou Xuan mentioned above, but they are helpless in the face of stronger opponents.

This round is over, and the contestants in the next round are equally strong. One of them awakens the dragon bloodline and transforms into a dragon directly on the ring.

Another thing that impressed him was that he held a thunder hammer in his hand, and with a wave of his hand, a thick lightning bolt spanned the entire arena. His ultimate move summoned thunderclouds that covered the entire arena, and thousands of thunders struck the top of the head with astonishing power.

"They've even got some damn high-level magic weapons! Is this too outrageous?"

Su Yu was speechless and could only hope that the next opponent would not be too abnormal.

A few minutes later, the winners of the four arenas were decided one after another. After a few minutes of rest, a white light flashed and teleported him to the arena again.

The first thing he did was look up at the other side of the arena. He saw a young man wearing a red robe and holding a square pot surrounded by flames.

"what"

"luck!"

He recognized the square pot as the Fire Crow Pot at a glance, and immediately reached out and pressed it. A whirlpool emerged, and a large amount of clear water gushed out.

This time he did not let the water flow away, but restrained it around him.

When the thirty-second countdown ended, a water ball with a diameter of over 100 meters had formed.

"Water can conquer fire. If I turn the entire arena into a swamp of water, can I put out the fire of this Fire Crow?"

It turns out that it can be done.

As soon as the countdown ended, Cao Ze immediately stretched out his hand and pointed, and all the summoned fire crows rushed to the other end of the ring, turning into a string of large fireballs as big as round tables and falling down.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Explosions occurred one after another, large amounts of clear water were blown away and boiled and evaporated, steam rose to cover most of the arena space, and was quickly evaporated by the high temperature, revealing two-thirds of the water ball remaining, which was visibly expanding with the naked eye.

The speed of evaporation is no match for the speed of gushing out from a vortex with a diameter of hundreds of meters.

"This is a sure thing, I just happened to be able to control it!"

In fact, he can restrain quite a few things, not only the Fire Crow, but also the player who holds the black gourd magic weapon to summon the river.

It’s not that he can deprive his opponent of control over his magic weapon, but he holds the Zhenhai Pearl, which reduces the damage of water-based magic by 50%, which is a complete restraint.

In addition, among the other 15 winners in the previous round, there are several that he is confident of defeating, and there are a few that he is not so sure of, but he still has a chance of fighting.

All in all, as long as he is not too unlucky to meet the strongest ones, he has the possibility of advancing.

Su Yu self-assessed that his current overall strength should rank at the bottom of the top eight.

Once you advance to the top eight, you can get bonuses and prizes to quickly improve your strength, and you can get more bonuses if you do better in the next quiz.

With the accumulation of knowledge from the three small tests, you will definitely be able to surpass them in the final test. By then, you will be able to beat all the contestants and take first place. By then, you can almost go to the immortal gate to become their disciple.

"Not bad!"

With full concentration, he activated the Zhenhai Pearl, and endless clear water gushed out. In just a few minutes, the entire arena was turned into a swamp. The depth of dozens of meters no longer required them to gather together. After the three-legged fire crows in the sky bombarded the arena continuously but to no avail, they transformed into the scorching sun and gathered fire clouds to cover the entire sky of the arena in an attempt to evaporate the swamp.

But this is obviously impossible to do.

The lake is getting bigger and bigger and deeper.

Thirty meters.

Fifty meters.

When the depth reached hundreds of meters, Cao Ze put away his magic weapon with a helpless look on his face and chose to admit defeat.

"Ring number two, number 68 Su Yu wins!"

"Yes!"

"35 gold in hand."

Su Yu finally felt relieved and could give up later.

Of course, you don’t have to admit defeat directly. At least put on a show. If you admit defeat directly, everyone will know that you bought it, and it will be difficult to buy it next time.
