Silence Valkyrie

Chapter 11
A quarter of an hour later, the bell rang in the martial arts arena, and the school's annual assessment officially began.

The rules of the competition are the same as in previous years. The students who rank in the top 32 in the academy will automatically become the seed players and advance to the top [-].

The other students will have to compete for the remaining [-] places through the knockout round.

The martial arts arena has now been divided into four arenas, and the students other than the [-] seeded players are randomly divided into four groups, and the knockout competition will be held at the same time.

The knockout competition adopts the melee mode, and the last four students in each arena will advance to the top 32.

As the head of the school, Bai Shaoyang is naturally among the seed students, so he doesn't need to participate in the first round of scuffle.

What surprised Zhang Shan was that he was also announced as one of the sixteen seed students.

Yan Zhengying, the owner of the pavilion who was resting his mind with his eyes closed in the stands, couldn't help being surprised when he heard that Zhang Shan's name was in the [-] seed seats.

"What's going on with Zhang Shan? How did he get the seed seat?"

He beckoned to a professor surnamed Wang standing beside him, and asked with a frown.

"Last month, he defeated Bai Shaohai, who was ranked No. 6 in the school, on the stage of life and death, so he automatically replaced the No. [-] position."

After Wang Jiaoxi stepped forward, he whispered the results of the battle between the two last month.

"Defeat Bai Shaohai? How is it possible?"

Yan Zhengying couldn't help being taken aback.

Turning his head to look in Zhang Shan's direction, he carefully sized up the student who had been ignored by him before.

After sweeping his eyes twice, his pupils shrank.

"Already a martial artist at the Spiritual Martial Realm? No wonder the supervisor didn't take any blame when this son came late."

You must know that when you can reach the ninth level of Qiwu Realm before the age of 20, you will basically meet the requirements of Wentianzong to recruit incoming disciples, and entering the Lingwu Realm is even more certain.

"You just said, what happened between him and Bai Shaohai on the stage of life and death?"

Recalling what Wang Jiaoxi said just now about the life-and-death confrontation between the two, Yan Zhengying asked again.

Hearing the museum owner's question, Wang Jiaoxi explained the cause and effect of the incident.

After listening to what happened, Yan Zhengying's face became cloudy and he began to meditate.

Last night, the Bai family sent someone to find him, promised him a lot of money, and hinted that he would teach a few people a lesson in the competition, so that he could make it easier, and he agreed.

"So, it should be Bai Shaoyang who wants to take this opportunity to deal with Zhang Shan."

Yan Zhengying thought to herself.

"It's fine if Zhang Shan is still the trash he was before. Now that he has awakened his martial spirit and has broken through to the Lingwu realm, if he is partial and selfish, it will be difficult for the supervisor to report the matter."

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"After two months of sect selection, my curatorial period is over. If I don't take the opportunity to make a fortune, why don't I wait for someone to leave the tea?"

Thinking of this, Yan Zhengying finally made a decision, let the Bai family love to deal with whoever he wants, the real thing is to get the benefits, as for Zhang Shan, what does it matter whether he lives or dies?
After waving Wang Jiaoxi to step down, Yan Zhengying lowered her eyes again to regain her composure.

Following the loud roll call by the referees of the academy, each student walked towards the ring to which they were assigned.

At this time, Zhang Shan was looking around at the students in the arena, estimating the strength of everyone, his gaze accidentally swept across the far side of the arena, and two groups of people caught his attention.

Those people were not wearing the costumes of the disciples of the academy, they seemed to be guests who came to watch the ceremony.

These two groups of people are obviously headed by two young people, a man and a woman, each occupying a corner of the martial arts arena. The man is dressed in white like snow, looks handsome, and looks at the arena with a faint smile on his mouth.

And that woman's appearance is extremely beautiful, but her expression is cold, as if she refuses to be thousands of miles away.

"Look at the attendants behind these two people, their aura is hidden, but they are solemn and deep. They are obviously masters. Could this be the young master of a certain family in the city?"

Zhang Shan guessed secretly, and couldn't help but take a second look.

There are four great aristocratic families in Qingyang City, with outstanding strength and profound background, they faintly control all industries in the city, and even the city guard should be afraid of them.

Although the Bai family is also a big family, compared with these four great families, it is like a small witch.

"If you are a member of the four great families, why would you come to watch the year-end competition in our academy?"

Zhang Shan muttered in his heart, feeling a little puzzled.

At this time, the lottery drawing for the groups was over, and all the students had entered the ring, Gao Peng and Lei Meng happened to be assigned to the fourth ring together.

There was a smile in Zhang Shan's eyes. The two of them were lucky. In this kind of melee, if they were in the same arena, they could take care of each other. At least they wouldn't be out of the game at first.

Amidst the preparations of the referees, a group of students woke up their spirits one after another, ready to wait.

After the bell rang, the first round of competition officially began.

Gaopeng and Lei Meng were standing in a corner of the arena at this moment, standing close to each other back to back, watching their surroundings vigilantly.

In the fourth arena, there are two strongest students, one named Zheng Wu and the other named He Changchun, both of whom are at the seventh level of the Qi Martial Realm.

These two people didn't have much friendship at ordinary times, but now they joined forces quite tacitly and rushed towards the weakest student.

Clashes of energy and screams kept ringing out in the arena, and some students at the fourth or fifth level of Qi martial state were blown out of the arena by the two of them as soon as they met each other.

At this time, the other students also started to move towards the students who were lower than themselves in the realm around them. The roar and the sound of the moves piercing through the air resounded above the ring.

Gao Peng and Lei Meng seemed to have made up their minds to conserve their strength and not take the initiative to attack their opponents, so they didn't make a single move and just stood there watching the others fight.

A quarter of an hour later, there were only more than 20 students left in the No. [-] ring. Except for the two qiwu [-]th levels who joined forces, the others were basically students from the [-]th level. At this time, they also gathered in two or three Together.

"Mengzi, the situation is starting to get bad, and now we are left with a combination of the fifth level of the Qi Martial Realm." Gaopeng said depressingly.

"Anyway, it's best to be promoted, not to be knocked down." Lei Meng said carelessly.

Just as he was talking, a group of three teams with six levels of qi and martial arts walked towards them, their eyes full of mocking expressions.

Gao Peng smiled wryly: "Mengzi, trouble is coming, just go down and be an audience if you try."

Lei Meng nodded his head and let out a low drink. When his true essence reached its peak, he was about to rush up with Gao Peng and fight hard.

Suddenly there were two more figures in front of them. The two saw Zheng Wu and He Changchun appearing in front of them.

He Changchun chuckled: "There are four of us together, and the four promotion places are just right, what do you think?"

Gaopeng and Lei Meng froze for a moment. Zheng He is the strongest, and there is no suspense to advance together. I don't know why they brought the two of themselves?

But even though they didn't understand the reason, there was no reason to refuse such a good deed. After exchanging glances, the two nodded at the same time.

"Follow us and wait for the opportunity to make a move."

Seeing that they did not object, Zheng Wu ordered with a blank face.

As he spoke, he let out a low drink, and together with He Changchun, he rushed towards the three students at the sixth level of the Qi Martial Realm.

Zhang Shan saw all this in the audience, and doubts arose in his heart.

"Zheng Wu and He Changchun have never said a word to the three of them, so why are they helping Mengzi and the others for no reason today?"
