Knock knock knock!
The next morning, the familiar sound of gongs and drums rang out again.
Some of the elders and the geniuses were tense and looked very nervous.
With the first round of the competition already halfway through, some players have yet to win a single game, or have only managed a hard-fought victory, making their advancement uncertain.
Ji Baichuan sat in the Group A rest area, unable to manage a smile.
He only won one of his four matches yesterday, and it was a hard-fought victory.
"I only won one game too." Wei Rou, standing beside her, couldn't laugh either. Compared to those Aristocratic Genius, their skills paled in comparison.
"There's still a chance, don't get discouraged now," Song Yuanshan comforted him. He had won two matches, so his chances of advancing to the next round were very high.
Ji Baichuan looked towards the Group A arena and sighed, "Yesterday I thought I was lucky, but now it seems I've gained an insurmountable opponent."
Song Yuanshan followed his gaze and said in a deep voice, "He has begun cultivating the Innate Blood Technique and has made considerable progress overnight."
"His talent is truly astonishing." Wei Rou stared at the figure on the arena, her eyes gleaming with admiration.
Boom boom boom!
Group A Arena.
The two young men were engaged in close-quarters combat.
One is Second Cao Qingzhi, Jiang Ping, who Super First-rate physical attributes; the other is also not to be underestimated, ranking fifteenth on the Martial Examination Ranking.
After a hundred rapid clashes, the two separated and stood on opposite sides.
Knock knock.
A faint rumble of Thunder Sound could be heard.
Jiang Ping's Martial Artist robes were now stained with white mist, and a chill emanated from him.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his sleeves billowing in the wind, appearing somewhat ethereal and otherworldly; the collision had not affected him in the slightest.
On the other side, Number Fifteen on the Ranking was panting heavily, glancing at his cracked outer garment, his expression extremely solemn.
In a duel between Sixth Grade Martial Artist, the strength of their Blood Art is more important.
Among the strongest Blood Art, the Innate Blood Technique naturally take the lead. Once mastered, only Blood Art of the same level or advanced skills can rival it.
Secondly, among the mainstream Blood Art, there are those like the Invincible Vajra, which are second only to Innate Blood Technique.
Most of the geniuses participating in this Martial Examination do not possess Innate Blood Technique; they can only compete based on their cultivation level and mastery of mainstream Blood Art.
For example, this person Number Fifteen on the Ranking is at a very high level. He has cultivated his five internal organs, perfected several Blood Art, and has an endless variety of methods. He is already quite powerful.
In fact, if the top- First-rate Genius in front of him were still at yesterday's level, he would definitely be inferior to him.
However, the opponent has already begun cultivating the Innate Blood Technique!
"Just one night, Innate Blood Technique could bring him such a boost?" Number Five on the Ranking murmured softly, his heart filled with shock.
Is Innate Blood Technique really that heaven-defying?
"It's not that his Innate Blood Technique are too strong, but rather that this person's talent is too high."
Chen An's eyes looked slightly unnatural.
Even though Jin Ze helped him resolve his issues with Jiang Ping, the more he saw the other party getting stronger, the more uneasy he felt.
"Indeed astonishing. Possessing Super First-rate natural talent, and with an even greater advantage in cultivating Martial Dao and Blood Art, he has far more advantages than us," Jin Ze said solemnly.
In just one night, the opponent's Innate Blood Technique had already demonstrated some of its power. It is estimated that if given a few more days, he might be able to Entry Level.
With such innate talent, he undoubtedly deserves to be the best in Changping Prefecture, and even if we go back three or four generations, he would still be worthy of being the best in terms of innate talent.
"The Number Fifteen on the Ranking is about to lose. Without his Innate Blood Technique, no one can break through his physical body." Jin Tao shook his head.
He had hoped that Number Fifteen on the Ranking would expose Jiang Ping's weakness, but it seems that won't work now.
"That Martial Graduate really looks down on people. Song Yuanshan once offered his utmost sincerity to Chen Qingyan, yet he didn't receive any special treatment. This person only showed his talent, and yet he was given such a precious Blood Art."
Chen An frowned, seemingly somewhat displeased.
In fact, he had twice entered the Juren Chen's house, even making a solemn promise in order to obtain the Innate Blood Technique.
However, although the other party treated them with courtesy, they showed no intention of seeing them off.
That's too discriminatory.
"There's no need for the Martial Academy to open a special passage; with this kid's strength, he might be able to break into the top twelve."
The Refined Instructor from the Black River Province Martial Academy smiled and said he was very satisfied with Jiang Ping's strength.
"Old Huang, you have a good eye; you've trained a Martial Graduate."
Not far away, the Chief Escort) looked at Huang Youren with some envy.
Regarding the relationship with Jiang Ping, only this old escort who had just entered the eighth rank had a deep relationship with him. He could be called Jiang Ping's guide and had the kindness to meet him.
"What training or not training? This is all about his own growth. I was just adding icing on the cake, giving him a little bit of Stance Technique when he was weak."
Escort Huang, waved his hand dismissively.
However, the pride and self-satisfaction in his eyes were almost overflowing.
"With this talent, as long as the Martial Academy provides the resources, Fourth Grade shouldn't be a problem," Juren Chen said with a smile.
He gifted Jiang Ping the Innate Blood Technique for no other purpose than to invest in him and make the future Fourth Grade Expert owe him a favor.
That sounds great.
Beside him, the Chief Lin Yi looked at the young man on the stage, then glanced at Ji Baichuan in the rest area, who couldn't manage a smile, a hint of gloom in his eyes.
In the Group A Arena, the outcome has been decided. Despite using all his skills, the Number Fifteen on the Ranking player was unable to break through Jiang Ping's defenses.
"To win, you either need to master the Tenfold of skills, or you need to use your Innate Blood Technique as well."
The Number Fifteen on the Ranking thought to himself, and immediately conceded defeat.
"Thank you for your kind offer."
Jiang Ping clasped his hands in a fist salute, then stepped off the stage.
Sitting in the rest area, he briefly adjusted his breathing, then resumed practicing his Blood Art as if no one else was around. Thunder Sound occasionally drifted over, causing the geniuses in his group to glance at him sideways.
"Although he started late, he is diligent and may achieve great things in the future." The Number Five on the Ranking couldn't help but admire him, then whispered to the Stern Youth beside him:
Are you feeling stressed?
"Guess." Cao Qingzhi said expressionlessly.
Although his natural talent was not as good as Jiang Ping's, his comprehension was far superior, and he was also revered Super First-rate!
Seeing that he still didn't smile, the Number Five on the Ranking official couldn't help but whisper, "Are you still troubled and depressed because of the affairs of the Imperial City?"
Cao Qingzhi glanced at the talkative genius and said, "If you saw those people, you would only feel like a firefly."
After.
Jiang Ping won another match, but was ultimately defeated by the Number Seven on the Ranking who had mastered the Innate Blood Technique. With a record of four wins and three losses, he advanced to the second round.
"There's no hope of reaching the Fifth Rank."
Ji Baichuan looked dejected and could no longer smile.
He was eliminated, becoming the first genius to be knocked out.
"The first round of selection has now concluded. Those who are eliminated may leave the Government Office on their own, or they may watch the ceremony from the stands until it ends."
Several officials came over and announced the end of the first round of the competition.
Jiang Ping glanced around and saw Ji Baichuan leave looking dejected, and also saw Zhao Ming, who had entered the Prefecture City with him, looking despair.
Chen Qingyan is undoubtedly strong; she has long since mastered the Innate Blood Technique, so entering the Martial Academy will not be a problem for her.
Song Yuanshan and Wei Rou were fortunate enough to advance to the next round.
This is your group assignment and match list for the next round.
At this point, the proctors distributed the list of geniuses who had been left behind to the designated groups.
