Chapter Eleven Drawing Lots
Chapter 11: Drawing
In the strong list competition, the inner court is the most intense and eye-catching, and even the highest level competition in the entire Canaan Academy. The extremely strict participation conditions almost directly lock in the most outstanding and outstanding students in the inner court. Almost all those who can stand out in such competitions are the dragon and phoenix among the people, and have truly amazing talents. The top ten in the strong list competitions in the past dynasties have all created great reputations on the mainland, and the least one is at least the one who dominates the battle king.
However, although the conditions for participating in the Strong List Competition are extremely harsh, this does not prevent other colleges from chasing them in crazy pursuit. Think about it, the powerful people who are rare to see on weekdays are now gathered together and have a lively and exciting battle on the stage. Such scenes are not as attractive to other colleges as the man who has been thirsty for several years suddenly saw a naked beauty in front of him.
Therefore, as the time is getting closer to the strong ranking competition, the atmosphere in the inner courtyard is gradually rising. Every topic revolves around the competition. Moreover, as time approaches, the rankings of the last thirty places on the strong ranking are constantly changing. Those guys who usually endure the news are completely exploded at this moment, crazily impacting the strong ranking with great value in the heart of the inner courtyard college!
After four months, countless people in the inner courtyard were looking forward to it, and finally arrived slowly.
Central Plaza, the largest venue in the inner courtyard, is not open to the public on weekdays. It will only be opened when the inner courtyard holds a competition. As the most explosive "strong list" competition in the inner courtyard, the venue is naturally the right place.
Although this covers a huge area in the Central Plaza, today it is still occupied by countless black heads. Looking around, the bustling crowd spread everywhere with noise, and finally gathered into a stream, rushing towards the clouds.
When Heng arrived here, he looked at the crowded wall of people and was a little surprised. Fortunately, there was a special passage for the contestants, and directly entered a high platform with a very good view from the special passage guarded by the mentor.
Standing on the platform and sweeping towards the bottom, I saw that the spacious venue was very neatly divided into five platforms. Obviously, this should be the venue for this competition.
Just as Heng was lying on the railing boredly, a familiar voice came into Heng's ears: "Haha, Heng, I didn't expect to see you here!!!"
I saw a young man in a blood-red robe standing not far from Heng with a smile on his face. It was Wu Tianlang who had fought with Heng in Heping Town.
Seeing the person coming, Hen smiled and said, "So it's you, why do you want to take revenge?"
"Of course, since I fought with you in Heping Town, I have been practicing diligently and trying to completely defeat you." Wu Tianlang said seriously, staring at Heng with a pair of firm eyes.
"Leave it to fate. If you were defeated early, we probably wouldn't be able to fight." After that, regardless of Wu Tianlang's expression, Heng lay bored on the railing.
But Wu Tianlang was slightly shocked. He said this. Could it be that he was sure to enter the top ten of the strong list? Could it be that he broke through again?
"Have he advanced to the Seven-Star Douling Spirit?" Thinking of this possibility, Wu Tianlang looked at Heng's back with complicated eyes. This kid seemed to have only been in the Fentian Qi Refining Tower for less than half a month. Did he advance so quickly?
Zi Yan, who appeared on the side at some point, stared at Wu Tianlang with a bad look. Seeing Wu Tianlang standing in place blankly, he said coldly: "Boy, you are not leaving yet. Do you want me to send you a ride?" After that, he held his hands and rubbed the sound like a burst of beans.
Wu Tianlang was shocked, and Zi Yan was terrified. He remembered clearly that when he was roughly "sent away" by Zi Yan's little hand, he covered his forehead with cold sweat and bowed, "Don't bother Senior Sister Zi Yan, I'll leave now." The language was full of pleasing. Then he said to Hen: "If we meet again, I hope you don't show mercy." Hen waved his hand casually.
Zi Yan looked at Wu Tianlang's back and muttered: "Tsk, what a guy looking for abuse."
laugh!!!!
The sound of the clock fell quietly, and a large sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded under the sky. Everyone looked up and could only see the blurred figures that flashed away. Then their eyes were lowered, but they saw more than a dozen old figures that had appeared on the special high-rise seats in the square at some time.
Heng's eyes swept over the old figures, most of them were familiar elders in the courtyard, and the old man in the middle of the house was the old man Su Qian.
Unexpectedly, even he would attend. It seems that the inner court attaches great importance to this strong list competition.
Su Qian walked forward slowly, his hands pressed. Suddenly, there were only breathing sounds in the entire square. His eyes slowly swept across the audience, and finally stopped on the young man in black robe who was leaning against the railing on the high platform. A faint smile appeared in his eyes, and an old and low voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"Those who rank above the strong list will enter the venue!"
As Su Qian's voice fell, suddenly, people flashed on the platform, and figures drew arcs in the air, and finally fell into the square incorrectly. He raised his head and looked at the countless heads around him, a fiery fighting spirit quietly expanded!
The real contest is coming soon!!
Looking at the powerful people who were using their fighting skills, Hen smiled helplessly, walked slowly to the venue with Ziyan, stood with Wu Tianlang, and then nodded at the latter with a smile.
Zi Yan's identity is not many people in the inner courtyard. Perhaps only those on the strong list and some old students knew that for some freshmen who came in late, they had never heard of this name. After all, the former is not often on the road of the inner courtyard, and no one dared to challenge her. Therefore, the people in the inner courtyard only knew who the second and third were. But they didn't know that the first place in the strong list above them was such a cute little girl.
While whispering chess in the stands around, some of the contestants in the field became a little unnatural. Except for those who have just squeezed into the strong list recently, most of the people flashed a little fear on their faces, and their performance made everyone in the field confused.
"Cough!" A faint coughing sound was filled with fighting spirit in everyone's ears, and the whispers began to drop. After a while, it completely dissipated. One by one, the eyes were raised, and the old man in black robe at the center of the high platform was full of awe and respect. As the great elder whose strength and power in the inner courtyard were only under the mysterious dean, even ordinary elders kept respect for him, let alone these students.
"Since the number of people is complete, the competition can also begin." Su Qian smiled faintly: "But before the competition, I still want to remind you that although the inner courtyard is open-minded, I still hope that you will try not to kill during the competition. You are all still students, not in places like Black Horn Domain where people can eat people. Although the inner courtyard has a slightly bloody place like arena, the original intention is to temper you, not to fight to the death, so I hope you can control your position."
After hearing Su Qian's words, some contestants nodded slightly, but more of them were undeniable. In order to enter the top ten, who would not give their all their strength? With all their strength, the strength is difficult to control, and accidents are inevitable.
The eyes swept across the faces of the contestants, and Su Qian shook his head helplessly. Now the atmosphere in the inner courtyard has gradually become fierce. In that arena, some rookies who didn't know how to fight have also become evil wolves on the grassland with rich combat experience. Now it is a bit difficult to curb their ferocity.
"The rules are the same as before, draw lots of opponents."
As he fell down, his sleeves and robe swayed lightly, and suddenly a broken black cloth that was not far away fell down. The stone platform below was exposed. On the stone platform, there was a wide wooden tube with many bamboo sticks in it.
"There are twenty-five draws in the barrel and twenty-five draws in the red, and the votes are from one to twenty-five. For example, if you draw a twelve draw in the blue, then your opponent is the holder of the twelve draws." Su Qian briefly explained the draw rules of the lottery. This thing is not complicated, so students who have experienced this for the first time can understand it.
"Okay, the lottery starts!"
A contestant walked to the stone platform in an orderly manner, then pulled out the bamboo sticks, and when he read out his number, he left.
Hen did not rush to draw lots, but waited until everyone finished drawing, and slowly drew one. After taking a look, he recited: "Red Bottom Thirteen."
After reading, he looked at Wu Tianlang, who was dejected and holding the blue bottom in his hand. Because he was twenty blue bottom and did not draw the thirteen blue bottom he wanted.
