Wedding ceremony tomorrow

Chapter 191 Luo Qingfeng vs. Yuan Xiao!

"call……"

Luo Qingfeng withdrew the powerful aura emanating from his body and stepped off the battle platform.

Of the forty-eight new disciples who participated, making it into the top twelve is a kind of honor.

Although no one could figure out what his abilities were.

He won the first round without even going on stage; he also won the second round rather hastily.

Even the Prince of Zhenbei and others in the stands couldn't discern his true strength.

Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary disciples, he probably relied on luck.

Perhaps the opponent was too weak.

As he stepped off the battle platform, he was greeted only by Dong Miaomiao's boisterous cheers: "Sir, you are mighty! Sir, you are awesome! You made Ugly Junior Sister cry with one punch!"

The nightingale beside her suppressed a laugh.

Aya looked at him quietly, with her usual innocent and naive expression.

Liang Feng and the others originally wanted to congratulate him, but when they saw Yang Mei crying her eyes out, they had no choice but to give up and simply nodded at him in a very subtle way.

After all, they were all disciples of the North Academy and teammates on the same team. Yang Mei was already in that state, so they didn't want to provoke her further.

On the other two battle platforms, the fighting continued.

Luo Qingfeng won too easily, and he didn't display any impressive skills or moves during the fight, so not many people noticed him.

However, in the stands, the eyes of the Prince of Zhenbei and others were all on him, and they were discussing it.

"Although I cannot discern this young man's true cultivation level, it is clear that his strength is far beyond the Seven Stars of the Heaven Opening Realm."

Prince Zhenbei, Wanyan Xiong, had a look of great interest on his face.

Xu Liao, the vice dean of the North Academy, finally let his worried expression fade, a smile appearing on his face. He nodded and said, "This kid's strength is indeed not weak, not like that of a Seven-Star Opening Realm cultivator. Otherwise, he wouldn't have won the competition so easily. That female disciple's strength is actually not weak either."

As he spoke, he glanced at Cui Mang beside him and laughed, "Dean Cui, you may have really misjudged him."

Cui Mang smiled faintly and said, "Both of them are disciples of your North Academy, so one of them will have to win. As for where this young man will rank, we'll have to see in the next round. Dean Xu, there's no need to be in a hurry."

Xu Liao didn't speak again, his gaze turning to the battle platform below.

"what?"

Wanyan Xiong's eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at the first battle platform below and exclaimed in surprise, "Such powerful sword intent! This must be an innate divine ability, the sword technique's [Sword Rain]."

"Whoosh!"

On the first battle platform, sword light burst forth, and suddenly countless sword intents appeared, like shooting stars, enveloping the entire battle platform.

The sword-wielding youth had flowing hair and exuded an incomparably sharp sword intent.

A tall young man opposite him, holding a long spear, was suddenly struck by the sword intent after a brief moment of defense. His body was covered in sword wounds and dripping with blood.

Then, the sword-wielding youth thrust forward lightly, and countless sword intents appeared, like a torrent. With a "boom," it sent the tall young man flying, directly shattering the protective shield of the wind and the spear light in front of him, and knocking him off the stage.

The tall young man fell awkwardly off the stage, and immediately jumped up amidst the gasps of the crowd.

However, just as he jumped up, his body suddenly swayed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He then collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness.

"Senior Brother Lian! Senior Brother Lian!"

Someone nearby shouted urgently.

However, the tall young man lay motionless on the ground.

At this moment, the elder in charge of supervising the competition walked over, bent down to examine the area, and then stood up to announce, "Lin Yun from Team One of the North Academy has won this round!"

A cheer immediately erupted from all around.

The disciples of the North Academy clapped excitedly.

Lin Yun was the most famous and talented among the new disciples of the North Academy. He was also very humble, so he had a good impression on the disciples of the first team, the second team, and even the older disciples.

With this victory, another disciple from the North Academy has entered the top twelve. As a disciple of the North Academy, we share in the glory, so we are naturally happy.

From the stands, Wanyan Xiong said with admiration, "This young man's sword intent has reached the level of unity. Even swordsmen at the Star Transformation Realm are probably no match for him. Dean Xu, it seems that your North Academy is about to produce another peerless genius this year."

Xu Liao said with a smile, "This young man's talent is indeed remarkable. We plan to make an exception and let him enter the genius class after his competition is over."

Wanyan Xiong nodded and said, "This young man is indeed qualified to enter the genius class. Even in the Demon Suppression Academy in Kyoto, he is a rare talent."

At this point, the contest on the third battle platform had already concluded.

Another disciple from the South Academy has won.

The second round of the competition quickly came to an end.

When Elder Mei of the main academy stepped onto the stone platform and announced the twelve newly promoted disciples, the disciples of the southern academy cheered.

In the stands, Xu Liao couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Sure enough, this year their North Campus is still not as good as the South Campus, and by a large margin.

At this point, twenty-four disciples advanced to the twelfth rank. Eight disciples from the South Academy advanced, while only four disciples from the North Academy advanced, a difference of exactly half.

Standing to the side, Cui Mang smiled broadly and said, "Dean Xu, don't be discouraged. This year is much better than last year."

Xu Liao's facial muscles twitched, and he sneered, "Dean Cui, don't be so smug. Even if we only have four disciples in the North Academy, we won't necessarily be crushed by your South Academy."

The two engaged in a heated exchange, while Wanyan Xiong, sitting in the middle, smiled and offered no further persuasion, seemingly used to such situations.

For this competition, the Kyoto Demon Suppression Academy sent many people to watch the battle in person.

The winner will not only receive more cultivation resources and rewards, but will also receive more resources from the main academy in the future. In addition, the main academy will reserve more promotion slots for the winner and will provide them with some good training opportunities from time to time.

For example, the benefits of going to another dimension for training or to a certain country for a mission are obvious.

Of course, there are many more glories to come.

Therefore, the top officials of both institutions are very nervous at this moment, and it is inevitable that they will exchange a few words.

"In the third round, the twelve are eliminated to six. The six eliminated disciples can draw lots again to determine their opponents and compete for a higher ranking... The top ten will have one chance to challenge the top six, while the top six will draw lots to determine their opponents and advance to the top three..."

Elder Mei stood on the stone platform and began to announce the rules of the upcoming competition. Seemingly afraid that no one had understood, he began to explain them in detail.

This rule ensures that each of the top ten disciples has another chance to compete for an even higher ranking.

To secure a place in the top three, one must undergo numerous challenges and tests.

The disciples below the stage whispered among themselves.

Some disciples whispered that it was unfair, but most disciples accepted the rule.

After all, this has been the rule for the competitions in the past few years.

After Elder Mei finished explaining in detail, he announced that the drawing of lots would begin.

For this lottery, the South Branch, North Branch, and Main Branch all sent more elders to supervise the process to prevent anyone from engaging in favoritism, fraud, or cheating.

The twelve disciples who advanced took turns stepping onto the battle platform. They first verified their identities, signed a life-or-death contract, and then began drawing lots.

Just as Luo Qingfeng was about to go over and draw lots, a hand suddenly reached out from beside him and gently tapped the back of his hand with a finger.

Turning around, I saw it was the girl named Huoman.

"If you run into me later, I'll beat you to tears. Unless you agree to marry me."

Huo Man snorted coldly.

Luo Qingfeng ignored her and walked to the wooden box to draw lots.

After someone catches something, they must first hand it over to several elders nearby for inspection before they can look at it themselves.

The first time, no one managed to catch it.

The second time, two people caught each other: Lin Yun and a female disciple from the South Courtyard.

The two exchanged a glance and walked to the side to wait.

Third time, fourth time...

On the fifth attempt, Luo Qingfeng finally caught his opponent.

When Elder Mei read out their names, his expression was remarkably calm, while the other person looked at him with a cold smile.

"Luo Qingfeng from Team 1 of the North Campus versus Yuan Xiao from Team 2 of the South Campus."

The two walked to the side and stood there, waiting for the others.

On the stands, among the group of people standing in the South Courtyard, Yuan Tong's eyes flickered. He stared at the stone platform for a few moments, then looked at the tall girl in the white shirt and red skirt in the crowd.

The girl was frowning, and her expression was somewhat tense.

However, what Yuan Tong didn't know was that under a large tree not far from the field, a stunningly beautiful woman in a flowing robe was also looking at him.

Beside the stunningly beautiful woman stood a pretty young girl in a white dress.

"What a coincidence, this is going to be interesting."

The pretty young woman smiled slightly.

The stunningly beautiful woman beside him had a cold expression on her face and remained silent.

At this moment, all the disciples on the stage had successfully found their opponents.

As Elder Mei announced the start of the competition, the twelve disciples stepped down from the stone platform and headed towards the three battle platforms next to it.

The first six disciples to successfully draw lots walked onto the battle platform one by one.

The atmosphere began to tense.

Not only were the disciples on the stage nervous, but the disciples watching from below were also extremely nervous.

In the stands, the senior executives from both the South and North campuses also stopped talking.

This round of the competition is naturally much more important than the previous two. As long as you can enter the top ten, you will receive plenty of rewards and glory.

"The competition begins!"

On the three battle platforms, the six disciples launched their attacks almost without hesitation after hearing "The competition begins."

This battle was exceptionally fierce.

On the three battle platforms, swords flashed and explosions rang out continuously, with shockwaves from the explosions sweeping outwards in all directions.

However, thanks to the barrier of the formation, the shockwaves and various lethal sword and blade beams dissipated before they could even reach the area below the stage.

Below the second battle platform, Yuan Xiao stood with a tall young man, talking in hushed tones.

That young man was none other than Yuan Zhiyuan, who possessed the Nine Stars of the Heavenly Creation Realm.

"Brother, rest assured, I will not be careless. Even if that kid is hiding his strength, I will find a way... Hmph..."

Luo Qingfeng stood not far away, watching the two whispering and acting suspiciously, but he didn't pay any attention. His gaze was fixed on the competition on the third battle platform.

The two people competing on the third battle platform were Lin Yun, a promising and talented new disciple from the North Academy, and a female disciple from the South Academy.

The female disciple possessed the cultivation level of the eighth star of the Open Heaven Realm. She wielded a pair of broken swords, her swordsmanship was superb, and her movements were ghostly. She was able to accurately dodge Lin Yun's rain of swords.

However, Lin Yun clearly did not use his full strength in the initial battle; he was merely testing the waters.

As Luo Qingfeng was engrossed in reading, he suddenly felt a warm breath near his ear.

Nightingale came over with A-Ya and Dong Miaomiao.

at the same time.

Huo Man, who was standing to the side, suddenly turned his head and looked at the three girls behind him, his eyes seeming to ignite with two flames.
