Three days later, the five sects of Xiaoshui City jointly announced the city-wide competition. At this time, there were exactly ten months before the big competition.

And from the day the announcement was made, the registration of contestants for the knockout round was accepted, and the venue was located in the square in the center of Xiaoshui City.

The registration is completed within one month, and the official knockout competition will start in the next month, and ten winners will be selected from them, and they will challenge the throne of the new top ten young masters in Xiaoshui City as challengers.

As for the list of recommended players, it will also be announced before the end of the knockout round.

Announcements like this were posted all over the streets and alleys of Xiaoshui City. Of course, the specific details about Dabi were also written on the announcement, making a four-foot-long and two-foot-wide red paper covered with dense Black teeny fine print.

All of a sudden, the entire Xiaoshui City became several times more lively than usual. It is no surprise that the most talked about topic after dinner is this city-wide competition. The ranking of the top ten masters, and the smarter merchants even printed a set of competition secrets, which claimed to have included all young masters under the age of 30 in Xiaoshui City, and explained each master in detail. The origin, famous moves and weapons used, of course, the secret book did not forget to make a competition ranking.

A brochure like this, which was only intended to attract the attention of the public, has become a huge hit in Xiaoshui City, adding to people's conversations.Regardless of whether the merchants fabricated the information themselves or the five sects intentionally revealed the information, in short, with the help of the brochure, even though there were still ten months before the competition, the atmosphere was quite lively.

Lin Yan also saw the notice posted on the street, and then came to the square in the bustling Xiaoshui City.

A wooden shed has been built in the middle of the square for registration.

The wooden shed was crowded with people, but most of them came to watch the excitement, and very few contestants actually entered the wooden shed to sign up.

the reason is simple.

Lively, everyone loves to watch, fate, everyone also cherishes.

There are almost no restrictions on participating in the knockout competition. Anyone can sign up. There is no need to verify their strength or pay fees, but they only need to sign a life-and-death agreement.

Although many regulations have been made in the competition to avoid the occurrence of death or serious injury accidents, but the fists and feet are blind and the sword is ruthless, it is inevitable that accidents will not happen. Obviously, the organizer does not want to take too much responsibility for this, so there is such a Life and death agreement.

Naturally, this kind of competition is not a game of play. Once the agreement is signed, life and death will depend on fate. Those ordinary people who don't have the slightest bit of kung fu, or warriors who are not strong enough, will definitely not make fun of their own lives.

Therefore, those who really dare to enter the wooden shed are warriors who have made up their minds and think that they have the ability to participate in the knockout round.

And those who watched the fun, almost everyone had a booklet, and every time they saw a martial artist entering the wooden shed, they would carefully observe his appearance and compare it with the contestant's portrait on the competition secret book, and at the same time listen carefully to the wooden shed. When hearing the movement in the booklet, when the contestants report their names, they must identify the name with the list written in the booklet one by one. When it is confirmed that the martial artist who signed up is indeed recorded in the booklet, people will look enviously Look at him and talk about everything about him.

When Lin Yan was mixed in the crowd, no one noticed him, but when he walked through the crowd and stepped directly onto the unique passageway covered with red carpet leading to the wooden shed, he began to attract people's attention.

"This person looks too young, is he really here to sign up for the knockout round?"

"Look, this person is dressed in ordinary clothes and doesn't carry any weapons. He can't be the staff in charge of registration, right?"

"The person in charge of registration will only enter from the back of the wooden shed. This passage is specially reserved for contestants. Needless to say, this person must have come to register. Look at him, he is handsome and handsome, tsk tsk, maybe it is true A young master."

"Why don't you quickly look through the secrets of invincibility to see if there is such a person? However, I have read the secrets dozens of times before, why don't I remember such a handsome young master?"

It was almost every half hour or even an hour to see one applicant. Lin Yan's appearance naturally attracted everyone's attention.

Inside the shed.

"Name?"

"Lin Yan."

"Well, age?"

"Seventeen."

"Ok?"

The middle-aged registration officer sitting in the middle of the table raised his head curiously, looked at Lin Yan, and asked again: "Really seventeen?"

Lin Yan nodded.

The middle-aged man still said in a puzzled tone: "Are you really here to participate in the knockout round? Have you read the details in the announcement? Young people should think about it. Once the life and death agreement is signed, they will stand on the competition stage a month later. They will regret it." useless."

"Think it over." Lin Yan smiled, showing neat white teeth.

The middle-aged man didn't try to comfort him anymore, he took out a form and handed it to Lin Yan, saying, "Just fill in the detailed information, it will be included in the future announcements, please refer to it."

"Hey, young man, why don't you fill in the sect you belong to?" The middle-aged man found that Lin Yan's pen had directly skipped the sect column, and couldn't help but remind him.

"I have no sect." Lin Yan said lightly.

At this time, the crowd outside the wooden shed finally exploded.

"Lin Yan? I have never heard of this character, and this person is not recorded in the secret book. What's going on?"

"That is, the few people who came before were all introduced in detail in the secret book. Could it be that this person is just trying his luck and is not a young master at all?"

"Didn't you hear that Lin Yan just said that he has no family and no sect? I see, this guy is just a young man, and he's messing around!"

The people watching the excitement quickly remembered Lin Yan, a weird young man, and regarded him as a stunned young man who didn't know what to do.

Inside the wooden shed, the middle-aged registration officer also had the same thought, and was about to give Lin Yan a few more words of consolation with compassion, when he heard a sneer from behind.

"Uncle Wang, let him sign up."

The middle-aged man surnamed Wang has always been kind, and when he heard the malicious words, he almost stood up and reprimanded him, but when he turned his head and saw the real face of the visitor, he abruptly blocked the words that had rushed into his throat, and his face changed. A pleasing smile.

"Young master, you are here."

It was Qingfeng who came.

The middle-aged man surnamed Wang is only Qingwumen who is in charge of sorting out the secret books in the Jingge, and his status is not high. Qingfeng can call him uncle, which has given him enough face. Although he is soft-spoken, he is not stupid. He understands that this is Qingfeng The young master reminded himself not to get involved in this matter.

Therefore, the middle-aged man surnamed Wang simply stood up, gave up the main seat to Qingfeng, and walked to the side without saying a word, just looked at Lin Yan with compassion, and sighed in his heart.

Presumably this young man named Lin Yan offended the young master Qingfeng, so he let the young master intervene in this matter.

"Qingfeng, is that you?"

To the surprise of the middle-aged man, Lin Yan just glanced at Qingfeng lightly, then greeted Qingfeng lightly, and then continued to write and complete the content of the form, as if he was determined to sign up.

"I've seen people being killed, but I haven't seen people who like being killed. Lin Yan, do you really think that the biennial city-wide competition is just playing house? It will kill people!"

Qingfeng spoke not to warn Lin Yan, but to laugh at Lin Yan's ignorance.

"Really, it seems to be the case. After all, fists and feet have no eyes, and swords are ruthless." Lin Yan responded calmly, as if the competition had nothing to do with him.

Most of the people watching outside the wooden shed knew Qingfeng well. At this moment, they couldn't help being completely shocked to see that the little-known Lin Yan could talk to the dignified young master of Qingwumen so peacefully.

"Maybe we are all wrong. This young man named Lin Yan is really very powerful. You see, he can even argue with Young Master Qingfeng. He must be a master."

"Is this person missing from the secret book? But judging from the current situation, Lin Yan is indeed very different, and he should have real skills."

Everyone subconsciously reversed their previous impression of Lin Yan.

Qingfeng in the wooden shed glanced at the crowd, a gloomy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and suddenly his voice was more than doubled, so that everyone on the square could hear clearly.

"Hmph, since I kindly remind you that you don't take it seriously, then wait for the knockout match in January and cry on the stage. I'd like to see what a martial artist who is only at the eighth level of the innate realm can do. Challenge others!"

As soon as these words came out, the sighs of the middle-aged people in the wooden shed became heavier.

On the square, it was once again caught up in heated discussions.

"Is there any mistake? You are still far away from the realm of transformation. Why did you sign up so confidently?"

"No way? I heard that there are at least a hundred young people with such strength in the Qingwu Sect. Any one who comes out will surely win this Lin Yan. Where does he get his confidence? Isn't he really a stunned young man?"

Although most of the people are not warriors, they are also clear about the level of warriors. Hearing Qingfeng's words, they naturally understand that warriors from the eighth level of the innate realm will participate in the city-wide competition. Not to mention that they will definitely not be able to enter the final competition. Can't even pass the first round!

The big competition held every two years is a strong dialogue between warriors. Although the number of those who dare to sign up is small, they have basically reached the level of transformation. Leaving aside the fact that he is not strong enough, and he is young, he must have insufficient cultivation experience, let alone not even mentioning that he has no school!

Such a person who dares to sign up alone, what is it if he is not a stunned young man!

Lin Yan turned his head at this moment, and also glanced at the square, paying attention to people's reactions, but he didn't get angry, put down his pen, and said calmly: "This is something I have decided, brother Xie Qingfeng's reminder .”

After finishing speaking, Lin Yan smiled at the middle-aged man surnamed Wang: "I've finished filling it out."

Qingfeng's face darkened, as if he was thinking about why Lin Yan dared to sign up for the knockout competition so boldly, but then he was relieved and smiled with a very proud expression.

"Hmph, since you are looking for death, you can't blame others! Although I promised Junior Sister Jiangxue not to do anything to you, but in the knockout round, it is a breeze to order a few people to 'take care' of you, haha."

Qingfeng thought this way in his heart, but said to the middle-aged man: "Uncle Wang, Lin Yan really wants to participate in the knockout round, so as to show his supreme demeanor and add color to this year's city-wide competition, please ask Uncle Wang to review it carefully Take care of the information Lin Yan filled out, be sure, make sure Lin Yan can compete normally."

After Qingfeng finished speaking, he triumphantly walked away from the back of the wooden shed with his hands behind his hands.

The middle-aged man surnamed Wang glanced at Lin Yan, sighed, shook his head slightly, picked up the registration form on the table, reviewed it carefully, picked up the seal and stamped it with a blood-like scarlet mark.

"Lin Yan, the registration is successful, I wish you good luck."

Lin Yan clasped his hands at the middle-aged man, stepped on the red-carpeted passage again, left the wooden shed, and arrived at the square. He didn't listen to the sarcasm, contempt, or sighs from the crowd, and walked straight forward.
