As time goes by, the aura on Wasteland gradually becomes sparse.
The [Origin-Bearing Cauldron] in Chu Bai's hand finally became completely silent and turned into a stream of light and disappeared into his Storage Bag.
Refining completed!
At this point, the first round of assessment is coming to an end. Most people on the field have something in their hands, even if it is just a medium or low-grade product. Once the refining is completed and stamped with Divine Soul, the dust has settled and it will be difficult for others to snatch it away.
Chu Bai looked around the audience and quickly took stock of the situation in his mind.
Wang Qingli holds [Profound Wood Shield] in hand, Jiang Yingqiao hugs that side Ancient Bronze Mirror, Wu Jianfei grabs When it comes to [Blazing Fire Hammer], Lü Qing is even more majestic wearing [Profound Gold Treasure Armor]. These top experts basically all have a high-grade magic weapon.
The ones making the fastest progress are still him and Ji Li.
Ji Li holds a silver sword and a bronze bell, while Chu Bai holds [Fire Element Ring] and [Origin-Bearing Cauldron]. Each of them got two, and they can be said to be the biggest winners in this round.
But the battle is clearly not over yet.
Chu Bai cast his gaze towards the center of Wasteland. There, there was the last high-grade magic weapon emitting bright golden light floating alone.
[Metal-Bearing Seal]
Previously, because there were too many people vying for it, and after several waves of melee, it became a hot potato, and it has not yet been returned to its owner.
Now, this is the only variable on the field and the last piece of fat.
"Get away! This thing belongs to me!"
A loud shout sounded like thunder.
I saw Lü Qing wearing Profound Gold Treasure Armor, with golden light all over his body, like a golden-armored war god descending to earth. He took the lead to rush into the battle circle, and with a wave of his hand, he grabbed [Metal-Bearing Seal] in his hand.
The defensive coercion emanating from that armor was extremely intimidating. The two students next to them who originally wanted to pick up the missing pieces were so frightened that they turned pale and retreated decisively to fight for the remaining Mid-Grade Magical Artifact.
Lü Qing was already physically strong, but now he was blessed with high-grade treasure armor. For a while, no one dared to challenge him.
But before he could be happy, a scorching wind of fists roared towards him.
"Lü Qing! Now you and I have to compete!"
Wu Jianfei laughed ferociously. Although Blazing Fire Hammer in his hand had not been completely refined and could not be used, his iron fists were wrapped in blazing flames, and their power was equally astonishing.
"Well done!"
Lü Qing's eyes were full of fighting spirit. Although this was a competition field and there was no mercy, he had long wanted to have a good fight with this old rival.
Since you don't have a halberd in hand, let's fight fist to fist!
Boom!
The two of them instantly fought together, golden light and fire light intertwined, and the momentum was terrifying.
Although Wu Jianfei couldn't take down Lü Qing who was wearing treasure armor for a while, it was enough to hold back his refining progress and prevent him from receiving the seal with peace of mind.
Just when the two were in a stalemate, an indifferent voice fell from the sky.
"This seal belongs to me."
In mid-air, Ji Li's white clothes were finally no longer spotless. He stepped down, and his body fell to the ground like a meteorite. At the same time, he made seals with his hands, and the majestic Magnetic Force turned into two heavy pressures, blasting towards the two people fighting.
Facing these two powerful men of the same level, it is obvious that Ji Li can no longer photograph objects from the air like before, and must end in person.
"Hey, Ji Li! Stop pretending!"
Lü Qing Although his body sank under the pressure, he was not afraid at all, and even sneered, "You have been hanging high in the sky pretending to be an expert, so walking in the air must be quite expensive, right? It's just to avoid showing cowardice, that's why you haven't come down yet!"
"Now if you want to take away this square seal, you must first ask me about these fists!"
Ji Li's face was gloomy after being exposed, and he didn't talk nonsense. Although the silver sword was still recovering, his own boxing and kicking skills were also top-notch.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, the three of them fought together.
Ji Li's movement is elegant, Magnetic Force is strange and unpredictable; Lü Qing's defense is unparalleled, and his punches are fierce; Wu Jianfei is like a fire, extremely violent.
The three of them did not unite with each other or give in. It was a complete chaos.
The terrifying aftermath of spiritual power spread to all directions, causing sand and rocks to fly and cracks on the ground wherever it passed.
"Back! Back quickly!"
"With these three people fighting, I'm afraid no one will dare to participate anymore."
"Even the aftermath may cause serious injuries to us and others. Who dares to touch this bad luck?"
Seeing this, the surrounding students who were still thinking of taking chances all looked horrified and hurriedly backed away, for fear of being involved.
"There are only the last high-grade magic weapons left, so the competition is naturally the fiercest. I'd better not think about it anymore and just keep refining what I have in hand and wait for the next round."
Many students who had no intention of snatching simply stopped and Breath Regulation where they were, seizing the time to restore their spiritual power in order to participate in the next round of Demon Hunt.
In the middle of the field, the three of them were going back and forth, and they were in a stalemate with each other.
Ji Li Although his strength is slightly better, whenever he wants to suppress one of them to seize the seal, the other one will inevitably intervene. For a time, the ownership of this last high-grade magic weapon has become a matter of suspense.
Above the clouds.
The three deans stood side by side with Judge Li from Merit Office, overlooking the smoke-filled battlefield below.
Seeing Lü Qing, Wu Jianfei and Ji Li fighting for the last seal, Vice Dean Lu He gently stroked his long beard and couldn't hide the smile lines at the corners of his eyes.
"Master Li, how are the students of this class doing?"
He turned to look at the solemn-faced red-robed Judge beside him, with a bit of unconcealable pride in his tone.
If Ji Li is the only one who dominates, it can only mean that Ji Household has smoke coming out of his ancestral grave, or that Ji Li himself is a devilish talent. Although there is a relationship with the Dao Academy's teaching, it may not reflect the overall level of the Dao Academy.
After all, it is not spring that stands alone.
But now in this situation, Lü Qing is fierce and fearless, Wu Jianfei is as violent as fire, and there are also people like Chu Bai, Wang Qingli and others watching eagerly. Such a situation of hundreds of flowers blooming and many strong contenders truly demonstrates the depth of talent cultivation of Great Plains Prefecture Dao Academy this year. Foundation Depth.
This is political achievement.
Judge Li's eyes that seemed to pierce through Law Net swept downwards and nodded slightly, showing a rare look of recognition.
"Not bad."
His voice was steady and powerful, "There are indeed a few good prospects. Whether it is their character, methods, or the spirit of competition that dares to fight, they all belong to Higher Vehicle."
"Especially Ji Li, although he was born in the Aristocratic Clan, he is not arrogant at all, and he is decisive and ruthless in his attacks. The same is true for Lü Qing and Wu Jianfei. They are not afraid to retreat in the face of powerful enemies, and they have a strong and courageous spirit."
Speaking of this, Judge Li's eyes lingered for a moment on the young man in the distance who was silently Breath Regulation, but in fact had already obtained two treasures.
"The quota for Immortal Clerk this year... seems to be very suspenseful."
This evaluation carries great weight.
In previous years' Immortal Official Examination, often at this point, there is basically no suspense about the top ten candidates, and the rest is just a matter of ranking.
But this year, in a situation surrounded by wolves, who dares to say that he is sure of victory?
"The people selected now are all the pillars who will be in charge of the team in the future and guard Law Net for me, Great Zhou. There is no room for carelessness."
Judge Li looked at Lu He and said seriously, "Dean Lu, you are working hard this time."
Lu He heard this and felt determined. He quickly raised his hands and said humbly, "Judge is ridiculous. This is my duty."
Several major cultivators looked at the fierce battle below and expressed their praise without hesitation.
The wind and sand are rolling.
The [Metal-Bearing Seal] that triggered the melee among the top three was like a duckweed in the wind. It was shot flying around under the fierce attacks of spiritual energy, but it never really fell into anyone's hands.
Just as the three of them were in a stalemate, a familiar fiery red stream of light cut through the battlefield again.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Metal-Bearing Seal, which was about to fall in mid-air, was snatched away by the figure that passed by at a very fast speed. The movement was so fast that even the afterimage did not dissipate.
"Who dares?!"
Wu Jianfei's eyes were already red with blood, his chest was heaving violently, and he was breathing heavily and roared. He had nowhere to vent his anger, how could anyone dare to seize food from the tiger's mouth at this juncture?
"Interesting, does anyone dare to intervene..."
Ji Li also narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at it with interest.
When he saw who was coming, Lü Qing looked surprised and said in a voiceless voice, "Junior Brother Chu?"
A hundred feet away, Chu Bai was seen, with a pine-like figure, holding high the golden seal in his hand, and his eyes calmly swept over the three of them.
"I dare."
The young man's voice was clear and echoed above Wasteland.
Immediately afterwards, he said something that made Ji Li's face change slightly:
"I'm going to start refining this seal right now. If you want to take it, come and stop me!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Isn't this the exact words Ji Li used to humiliate everyone when he walked through the air just now?
Now it was returned intact by Chu Bai, and in front of Ji Li! This is simply a naked provocation and a slap in the face!
"You want to fight too?"
Ji Li smiled instead of angry, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, "Okay! Very good! Since you also want to play, then I will play with you!"
Before he finished speaking, he stepped suddenly into the void.
Buzz!
The air fluctuated violently, Magnetic Force exploded, his speed surged instantly, and his whole body was like a silver lightning, rushing straight towards Chu Bai.
The other two people also reacted instantly.
"This kid got Fire Element Ring, he's too fast! We must stop him as soon as possible, otherwise we won't be able to catch him if we let him run away!"
Wu Jianfei shouted loudly. He still had fresh memories of the experience of being escaped by Chu Bai for a long time. This time, nothing could make him repeat his old tricks!
Lü Qing also followed closely behind with a giant sword swing.
Facing the encirclement and suppression by three top powerhouses, Chu Bai's expression remained unchanged and he turned around and ran away.
However, this time, Ji Li was obviously prepared.
"Want to run? Stay!"
Ji Li quickly formed seals with his hands and shouted low at the back of Chu Bai.
[Magnetic Gravity Seal]!
Boom!
The familiar gravitational magnetic field comes again.
Chu Bai felt as if his shoulders were heavy, as if he was carrying a big mountain on his back. "Firestep Dash", which was originally flying at full speed, was instantly hindered. Although Five-Element Spiritual Power's endless energy would not make it as difficult as Lü Qing and the others, the speed also slowed down visibly to the naked eye.
"Oops, it was slowed down!"
Chu Bai felt a shiver in his heart. Once his speed advantage was lost, he would soon be overtaken by a strong man like Ji Li who was equally fast.
Since you can't run away, you can only fight!
Swish, brush, brush!
Chu Bai waved his backhand, and hundreds of Spirit Water Needle poured backwards like a torrential rain, trying to interfere with the three people's pursuit route.
But this level of interference can only temporarily block Ji Li, who wants to take people away.
Just a few breaths later.
Ji Li was ten feet behind him. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He grabbed hold of it with one hand and took out the seal in Chu Bai's hand.
"Bring it to me!"
"Dream!"
Chu Bai turned around suddenly and advanced instead of retreating.
[Formless Cloud Hand]!
Boom!
A giant palm of extremely solid cloud energy was shot out of thin air, carrying Perfected Level's terrifying pressure, and struck hard at Ji Li's chest.
Ji Li's complexion changed slightly, and he quickly changed his defensive moves, Magnetic Shield rising all over his body.
There was a muffled sound.
Ji Li only felt an overwhelming force coming towards him, and his whole body was sent flying several feet into the air by this palm. After landing, he took two steps back before he could stabilize his figure. The original calm and carefree appearance was gone.
"What a powerful force!"
Ji Li was surprised. If he hadn't reacted quickly and used Magnetic Spirit Power to relieve most of the force, this blow might have injured him. This first-year freshman's palm power is so domineering?
However, his strength naturally does not stop there.
Being repelled actually aroused Ji Li's ferocity. He rushed forward again, and when Chu Bai's old strength was gone, he held it in vain with one hand, and a strange suction force erupted.
Whoosh!
Metal-Bearing Seal in Chu Bai's hand actually flew out and fell into the palm of Ji Li.
"The things belong to me!" Ji Li sneered.
However, what surprised him was that instead of panicking, Chu Bai, who had lost his seal, seemed to be relieved. He even took half a step back and shouted at Lü Qing and Wu Jianfei, who were coming in a hurry from behind:
"Two senior brothers! He has something in his hands! Take action quickly!"
This voice directly filled up the hatred value.
Wu Jianfei and Lü Qing naturally know that in this arena, they are not going to be enemies with anyone, but whoever takes the gold seal is the public enemy!
"Ji Li! Leave the mark!"
"Watch the move!"
Almost subconsciously, the two unparalleled Spell Arts instantly reversed direction. They were originally heading for Chu Bai, but now they all hit Ji Li.
"You..."
Ji Li's face turned dark. This kid is really good at diverting trouble to the east!
Facing the two men's attack, Ji Li had to concentrate on resisting.
But at this moment, Chu Bai, who had been "watching the show", showed his fangs again.
"Go!"
Another Spirit Water Needle containing Geng Metal Qi was shot at Ji Li's defensive blind spot extremely cunningly.
There is a wolf in the front, a tiger in the back, and someone shooting cold arrows on the side.
Ji Li struggled to resist, but for the first time his figure looked a little embarrassed.
The four of them fought together again, but this time, the person who disrupted the situation was Chu Bai.
And that hot golden seal has once again become the focus of competition.
The battle was brutal.
The melee between the four top experts caused the spiritual energy in this area to become extremely chaotic.
The first one to be unable to hold up was Wu Jianfei.
Although this fire-type macho has a fierce offensive, his defense is ultimately weak. Under the heavy punches of Ji Li's Magnetic Pressure, Lü Qing and Chu Bai's attacks from time to time, his body has already been scarred.
"Damn it! Bad luck!"
Another Magnetic Seal hit his chest, and Wu Jianfei spurted out a mouthful of blood. Seeing that his spiritual power had bottomed out, he could only curse bitterly and decisively withdrew from the battle circle.
If you continue to fight, the foundation will be damaged, and the next two rounds will be completely useless.
With the withdrawal of Wu Jianfei, the situation has become a three-legged confrontation.
But as he continued to fight, Chu Bai keenly noticed something was wrong.
Although Ji Li is still domineering, his weird Magnetic Force always seems to be pouring more towards Lü Qing intentionally or unintentionally.
Even when Chu Bai attacks Lü Qing, Ji Li will let go a little without interfering.
"Are you treating me as the 'weak one' who can be saved until the end?"
Chu Bai smiled secretly in his heart.
It seems that in the eyes of Ji Li, Lü Qing, who has top-grade treasure armor and amazing defense, is the biggest threat.
As long as this hard nut is kicked out first, the remaining first-year freshman, no matter how good his physical skills are, is just a piece of meat on the case board.
"That's exactly what I meant!"
Chu Bai did not break it, but took advantage of the situation. The Spirit Water Needle and Cloud Hand in his hands frequently attacked Lü Qing's defensive blind spots.
With the tacit cooperation of the two masters, even though Lü Qing was wearing Profound Gold Treasure Armor, he finally couldn't hold it anymore.
Bang!
Another head-to-head encounter. Lü Qing was knocked back several feet by Ji Li's palm. Protective Spiritual Radiance was scattered and bleeding from the corner of his mouth.
"Good! What a great help!"
Lü Qing is also a sensible person. He glanced at the two people who were cooperating with each other tacitly, smiled bitterly, and put away Spell Arts, "You two have great skills, and Lu is convinced. Metal-Bearing Seal I won't fight. Let's decide the winner in the next game."
After that, he simply stepped aside and started Breath Regulation, assuming the posture of a bystander.
At this point, there were only two people left in the field.
"Everyone who was in the way is gone."
Ji Li turned around and looked at Chu Bai, whose eyes were still bright although his breath was a little choppy, with a meaningful smile on his lips.
"Now, it's just you and me."
His originally spotless white clothes were now stained with a lot of dust, and his spiritual power consumption was even greater, but the fighting spirit in his eyes only increased instead of decreasing.
"Then I'll stop you!"
"Looking forward to it."
Chu Bai also smiled back, Five-Element Spiritual Power was flowing through his body, and his fighting spirit was like fire.
Boom!
Before he finished speaking, the two of them moved almost at the same time.
This time, there is no third party interference, it is a real peak showdown.
Ji Li Magnetic Force is fully open, and his movement is as graceful as a ghost, and every palm shot carries a suffocating pressure; Chu Bai is stepping on a ring of fire, Cloud Hand is unpredictable, and there is no leakage between attack and defense.
The two of them collided hard, and their aura exploded.
But they did not fall into an endless fight. The target of every attack was directed at the crumbling [Metal-Bearing Seal] suspended in mid-air.
Ten moves, no victory or defeat.
As soon as Chu Bai's Cloud Hand grabbed the corner of the golden seal, it was knocked away by Ji Li's Magnetic Force.
Twenty moves, no one has the upper hand.
Ji Li was about to ingest it, but was interrupted by Chu Bai's Spirit Water Needle.
Fifty moves... a hundred moves!
The figures of the two people kept intertwining and colliding on Wasteland. From the initial bombing of Spell Arts, to the later hand-to-hand combat, and finally to the embarrassing fight when the spiritual power was almost exhausted.
Ji Li There was blood at the corner of his mouth and his hair was scattered. He had obviously suffered some internal injuries.
Chu Bai is having a hard time here as well. His clothes are torn and his body was injured by Magnetic Force in many places. If [Spring-Rejuvenation Seal] hadn't been holding him up, he would have collapsed long ago.
"Huh... huh..."
Both of them's breathing became as heavy as an ox, and their movements slowed down visibly.
But the desire to win is like a raging fire cooking oil, getting stronger and stronger as it burns.
"It's mine!"
"Don't even think about it!"
The two of them shouted loudly at the same time and used their last strength to rush towards the golden seal.
Snap! Snap!
The two palms pressed on [Metal-Bearing Seal] at the same time, almost in no particular order.
This time, Ji Li did not choose to consume precious spiritual energy to repel the opponent, because he knew that he was at the end of his strength.
Chu Bai has the same idea.
The two people's eyes looked at each other at an extremely close distance, as if sparks were flying.
The next moment, the two made an extremely tacit but crazy move.
No more fighting, no more fighting.
Two completely different spiritual powers - one with the domineering power of Magnetic Force, and the other with the endless flow of Five Phases, flowed into the golden seal crazily along the palm of the hand!
"Then it depends on who can refine it first!"
Refining together!
