And just as Du Shaofu was sizing up the general and the rest, Gu Xinyan, Gui Wa, Wu Que, Wu Que and the rest all looked at Du Shaofu, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.
"Do you think we have a chance to fight today? We didn't have a great time last time."
Demon Transformation Li Yuxiao walked over to Du Shaofu's side and looked at the near hundred people on the Martial Ranking, a smile spreading across his face, and then said: "But we must send the other people down first, I do not want to bump into you from the start."
"I'll wait for you." Du Shaofu's mouth formed a smile, and the fighting spirit in his eyes started to surge.
"What are you guys talking about? Don't tell me you want to join hands?"
Gui Wa and Netherworld Princess Wu Que walked up to the two of them, and on their handsome faces, a glimmer appeared. Their eyes swept across the eighty to ninety experts, and they said: "According to the rules, a group of people must be eliminated first, and at that time, those who are weak, and those who are useless, can be sent down first, lest they get in the way."
"That's exactly what I was thinking." Li Yuxiao smiled faintly, and a faint red light flickered in her eyes.
Hearing that, Du Shaofu listened to their conversation. Seems like there were different levels to the rankings, and those with the same cultivation level would all come together. What kind of strength one would have would make contact with what kind of circle one would enter.
"You are Du Shaofu huh? I heard that you crippled Qian Guyu, you sure are ruthless."
A young man in a white robe walked over at some point, he looked at Du Shaofu with his eyes that flickered with a faint light, and the gaze in his eyes was like a python's.
"Ice Python Bai Yichuan, there is some friendship between the two of them. The two once trained outside together." Ouyang Shuang whispered to Du Shaofu.
After Du Shaofu heard this, he could faintly guess the purpose of Bai Yichuan's visit. His expression did not leave a trace, and his clear eyes looked at Bai Yichuan, and said softly: "If Qian Guyu wants to duel, he is not strong enough."
"I hope that you can keep it until the end. I also really want to know how Qian Guyu lost."
Bai Yichuan's expression did not change, but the look in his eyes had a hint of unhappiness that was difficult to be noticed by anyone else.
"If you have the chance, you will know." Du Shaofu looked straight at Bai Yichuan, and said indifferently.
"Bai Yichuan, his opponent is not you, I'm afraid you're not strong enough, so don't bring shame upon yourself."
Gui Wa lightly glanced at Bai Yichuan, the sharp and cold Qi on his body faintly fluctuating, and did not take Bai Yichuan too seriously, as if he was intentionally standing up for Du Shaofu.
"Gui Wa, what do you mean?"
Hearing that, Bai Yichuan looked at Gui Wa, his expression turning ugly. Although on the surface, he usually did not put Gui Wa in his eyes, but on the surface, he looked at Gui Wa, and instinctively felt fear, since Gui Wa's ranking was higher than him, and he knew how terrifying Gui Wa's strength was.
"What Gui Wa means is that your strength is not enough, go and provoke fewer people that you should not have, Qian Guyu himself deserves to end up like that, just don't become the next person."
Hearing this voice, the surrounding people immediately narrowed their eyes and looked over. They saw a tall and sturdy young man walking over with a face like a statue, his aura seemed to cover the sky, as if he could suppress the mountains and rivers. He was the number one ranked on the Martial Ranking, Budian Shanhe General!
Looking at the general, Bai Yichuan seemed to have wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not. Facing the Budian Shanhe General, he could not say anything, and only glanced at Du Shaofu without leaving a trace, as the corner of his eyes twitched a little.
Du Shaofu looked at the general and smiled faintly, as a form of greeting.
The general looked at Du Shaofu, smiled, and said: "Do you think we have a chance to fight today?"
Du Shaofu raised his eyebrow, then raised a smile. He looked at the general and laughed: "If there is a chance, I will give it my all to beat you up."
The general was startled, then looked at Du Shaofu, frowned and said: "I will do my best too."
In the midst of everyone's conversation, the onlookers on the plaza were filled with respect as they called out the names of the experts.
Any student of Heaven Martial Academy would be extraordinary in the outside world, and the people on the Martial Ranking, especially the Budian Shanhe General on the Martial Ranking, Ling Xuan, Jade Lady Gu Xinyan and the others, were even at the peak of the Martial Ranking.
Facing these people who were truly as rare as phoenix feathers or qilin horns, regardless of whether the other students accepted it or not, they all pursued these peak existences with reverence. Strength was reverence, and Heaven Martial Academy was equally common.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a melodious sound of a bell rang out above the noisy Peace Square. Under the sound of the bell, the noisy surroundings gradually quietened down, until it became completely silent.
swish swish *
At the moment the bell rang out, quite a few instructors stood respectfully at a corner of the plaza. Dozens of figures descended from the sky, and appeared before the thirty or so seats.
Wave after wave of dense Qi spread out. It was Elder Sun, Elder He Hu, Elder Liao, Elder Murong Xi and the others.
As for today's Elders, Elder Liao and the rest who were in the middle, there were three elderly elders. They looked to be in their seventies or eighties, and their figures seemed to be in their prime. However, they seemed to be in high spirits and exuded imperceptible auras.
"Martial King Stage, three Martial King Stage!"
Du Shaofu's gaze suddenly trembled, the auras of the three elderly men all reached the Martial King Stage, and that aura was not one bit inferior to that of the Medicine King, Mu Mingqing and the rest.
That is the Inner Academy's First Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder, all of whom do not bother with worldly affairs. Only the Heaven Martial Great Assembly, which is a grand occasion, will rarely show their faces. It is said that there are still some Elders in the Inner Academy who have been in closed-door training. Ouyang Shuang lowered her voice, and spoke into Du Shaofu's ear with her charming voice. And she had even unintentionally heard this news from Uncle Xi while chatting.
"As expected of a Heaven Martial Academy with a foundation of several thousand years."
It was only now that Du Shaofu was truly moved. He had truly experienced the true might of Heaven Martial Academy at its foundation. No wonder the surrounding empires and forces of Inside The Dark Forest didn't dare to provoke Heaven Martial Academy.
It was hard to tell how many Inner Academy Elders there were even after decades of seclusion. All of the Inner Academy Elders had endured for more than ten years, or even decades of loneliness, cultivating without a care in the world, yet they still didn't know how terrifying their strength had become, so no one dared to provoke them.
Just as Du Shaofu was sizing up the person, a grey-robed, white-haired, shoulder-length elderly man who looked extremely ancient stepped forward. He was the Inner Palace's Great Elder that Ouyang Shuang had mentioned earlier.
The Great Elder walked out, his gaze sweeping across the tens of thousands of spectators surrounding the Peace Square, and his aged voice sounded out, "The once in every twenty years Heaven Martial Great Assembly, with the rankers of the Martial Ranking participating in it, and it is still as usual. In the first round of the elimination rounds, each person who defeats the opponent gets a point, and in the end, only twenty people will be able to enter the second round of finals.
The Great Elder's voice paused slightly before continuing, "This time's Heaven Martial Meet will be a bit different. We will be choosing the final champion, and at that time, the champion will be given a weapon crafted by the Profound Spirit Connecting Sky Vine by Vice Principal Zhuge himself. During the battle, no one is allowed to intentionally take their life, and if not, the loser will be punished severely.
As the Great Clan Elder's voice fell, at the foot of the plaza, a gigantic jade wall suddenly blossomed with a dazzling rune.
On top of the jade wall, there was a hundred ranking. The first place on the ranking list was shining with golden light, it was indeed the general, and the last last person on the ranking list was flickering with golden light. It was Du Shaofu.
"Chi la!"
On the square, the top one hundred of the Martial Ranking were looking at the mini version of the Martial Ranking, wanting to advance further in the Martial Ranking.
The Great Elder shook his right arm and shook his gray robe. His aged voice instantly resounded through the entire Peace Square, "The Heaven Martial Great Assembly will begin now!"
Boom!
As the Great Elder's voice fell, a hundred auras rushed into the sky from the rankers on the Martial Ranking, causing the entire Peace Square to tremble with a loud rumble!
In the sky, a storm was brewing. That kind of aura caused people's souls to tremble, and many elders were moved by it!
At the same time, all of the elders sat down at the back.
All the experts on the Martial Ranking moved at the same time on the plaza. They all spread out, and wave after wave of a shocking aura surged through the sky.
The onlookers' minds were reeling, and their eyes were trembling. The battle they had been waiting for had finally begun.
The Heaven Martial Great Assembly was about to begin!
