C36 (1/2)

After the drawing of lots was completed, a list of participants was quickly posted, and a group of disciples immediately gathered around to watch. After this method of drawing lots, every disciple that participated in the Nine Mystical Examination would fight two rounds with the other two disciples.

Within the two matches, two disciples who had won and one disciple who had lost would be able to advance to the next round. As for the disciples who had lost both rounds, they would be eliminated.

The reason why they did not follow the method of deciding the victor in a match to advance into the next stage was because in a battle to determine the victor, there would often be other disciples with great potential buried and there was still a lot of room to unleash their potential.

For example, if Lee Lingfeng were to face Dongfaang Chen, then Dongfaang Chen would be eliminated the moment he loses, and with Dongfaang Chen's strength, he would definitely not stop there.

Therefore, in order to prevent such things from happening, every disciple would have two matches. Even if one of them lost, they wouldn't be eliminated because of it.

Of course, if someone had picked an opponent as strong as Lee Lingfeng, and he was struck by another strong opponent, then that person would truly be out of luck.

”Humph!” I never thought that my second opponent would be him! ” Gu Fei, mixed in with the group of disciples, looked at the list of contestants for the first round of competition that was posted, and revealed a smile that was not a smile.

One of the two opponents was someone he knew. He hadn't thought that they would meet in the first round.

”Hehe!” Gu Fei, you are really unlucky this time! ” Suddenly, a strange voice was heard from his side.

When Gu Fei heard this voice, he couldn't help but frown. He didn't even need to see to know who the owner of this voice was, he was too lazy to bother with this annoying fellow.

Seeing that Gu Fei was ignoring him, he actually did not retreat, and instead went close to Gu Fei's ear and said in a low voice: ”If you are willing to return that talisman to me, I might be able to tell Senior Brother Dongfang to make your loss look better, and not look so ugly.”

”Hmm?” Gu Fei suddenly turned his head, his eyes shooting out sharp eyes like the edge of a blade, staring straight at the uninvited guest, he said solemnly: ”Wang Yuanzhi, I didn't think that you would be so shameless to this extent, is this the so called young master of a noble family?”

The man had originally been frightened by Gu Fei's sharp gaze, but when he heard Gu Fei's words, his face changed from shock to anger. The muscles on his face twitched slightly from anger.

”Haha!” Gu Fei, you have guts! ” After that, he turned and walked in Dongfaang Chen's direction. It seemed as if he was going to find Dongfaang Chen to vent his anger.

Some of the surrounding disciples had already noticed this and were extremely shocked. They did not understand why Gu Fei dared to anger Wang Yuanzhi.

In the Taixuan Sect, Branch Vein of Green Spirit Peak were all trash, and this had already become a consensus among the disciples. Moreover, Gu Fei's cultivation was always at the bottom among the young generation disciples in the sect. Why was he so confident this time? Isn't he afraid that Wang Yuanzhi will settle the score with him?

Originally, the news of Gu Fei defeating Wang Yuanzhi had not spread throughout the sect, but Wang Yuanzhi actually had some methods up his sleeves, causing the two disciples who were on good terms with him to keep it a secret.

Sure enough, Gu Fei saw that Wang Yuanzhi had whispered something into Dongfaang Chen's ear, and Dongfaang Chen's gaze immediately turned to look at him, a light flickering in his eyes.

But no one would have thought that, the current Gu Fei, was not afraid of him. This Wang Yuanzhi's cultivation is only at the peak of the Fifth Layer, and Gu Fei's cultivation is already higher than his by two whole levels. The current Gu Fei, is able to defeat Wang Yuanzhi with just a hand, so why would he care about this person who is weaker than him?

Even if it was Dongfaang Chen, he could only be considered to be at the same cultivation level as him. Moreover, amongst cultivators of the same level, he was born with the upper hand, and was stronger than cultivators of the same level.

”Senior Brother, what did that Wang Yuanzhi come over to say to you?” Zhao Zirou walked over from the side and asked worriedly. She still knew Wang Yuanzhi's character, he was an exquisite figure among the young disciples.
