C98 Second Round
"Please instruct me, Elder."
"This High-grade Spiritual Herb is extremely valuable, and it involves all sorts of efforts, so I suggest that we use it as the top prize for the competition. No matter who wins the first place in the city competition, this entire High-grade Spiritual Herb will be rewarded to the champion, what do you think?" The middle-aged man swept his gaze across the entire stadium as he spoke in an indifferent tone.
"This …" Wu Kuangshi's expression changed slightly. If it wasn't for his identity as a Blue Cloud Sect Elder, he would have had the impulse to slap the table and jump in. Tang Jie was powerful, so if there were no accidents, he would definitely win.
"Elder Chen, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Elder Xu's face slightly sank, his tone somewhat dissatisfied. Because of Young Lord and Xu Feng, his relationship with the Fang family was not bad. If this Elder Chen did this, wouldn't he be deliberately appreciating Tang Family? Tang Jie's strength was tyrannical, so there was no doubt that he would be first.
"Elder Xu, don't forget that we are here for official business. We naturally have to find the youngest and most outstanding young talent in the city." Glancing at him, this Elder Chen spoke in an indifferent tone.
Hearing the words of this great figure called Blue Cloud Sect, the entire audience started to discuss once again. If it was really carried out like this, under the premise that there were no accidents, this High-grade Spiritual Herb would still be given to Tang Jie in the end.
"I feel that Blue Cloud Sect Elder's suggestion is not bad, I, Tang Xiong, am the first to agree." Tang Xiong was a little surprised, and immediately supported him without hesitation. Hearing his words, the families who were on good terms with Tang Family all supported him.
"Mr. Lu, we're in trouble now." Wang Hao was flabbergasted, he did not expect the situation to turn out like this. As someone who stood on Lu Chen's side, he felt that the Blue Cloud Sect elders were truly somewhat eccentric.
"It doesn't matter."
"That's fine too." Smiling faintly, Lu Chen said nonchalantly.
"Mr. Lu, only you are in a good mood."
"I felt that this Blue Cloud Sect Elder was trying to protect Tang Jie, with his strength, he might be able to get the first place. Then, wouldn't your half of the High-grade Spiritual Herb be taken for nothing?!" Wang Hao's face was filled with pity, this was not some ordinary spirit grass, but it was a High-grade Spiritual Herb that was rarely seen in ten years of Blue Cloud City. Not to mention half a leaf, even a single leaf was worth far more than a normal spirit herb.
"How could this be?" Lu Zhentian frowned. Although he was unwilling, he could not do anything about it.
Wu Lia, Faang Lin and the rest were also unhappy, but when the messengers of Blue Cloud Sect spoke, not many dared to defy their will.
"Lu Chen, let's see what you can still be proud of now."
"I was the only one who stole things from people. No one can steal things from me." The corner of Tang Jie's mouth curled up as he stared at Lu Chen with a ridiculing expression. He stretched out his palm and faced Lu Chen's gaze as he drew a line on his neck, clearly provoking him.
Later on, he would let Tang Jie and the entire Tang Family know that they would pay the heaviest price in this competition.
… ….
After a series of twists and turns, both Tang Jie's and Lu Chen's half of the High-grade Spiritual Herb s were temporarily confiscated and treated as prizes for the first place in the competition. The registration for the selection was also completed, and there were fifty people competing in the second round.
Since the first round of the competition was only the beginning, then the second round would definitely be the most brutal competition. To be able to stand out from the hundreds of people participating in the second round, every single young warrior's strength was exceptionally outstanding. Other than the people from Tang Family and the other three great clans, the remaining people were all the more outstanding youths from the second and third rate families in the city.
Although they were older, their martial cultivation talent was indeed not ordinary. Moreover, the second round was directly related to the distribution of power among the mines in the various clans. Furthermore, the second round was directly related to the distribution of power in the mines in the various large clans.
The rules were relatively simple and crude. According to the drawing of lots, they were divided into five groups. Each group of ten people would decide on five people entering the final round of the competition.
"Mr. Lu, I drew the third group. How many groups did you draw?" A bitter expression appeared on Wang Hao's face. His strength wasn't considered outstanding and he was at the bottom of the list for the eighth level of the Soul Refinement realm. The next step would depend on luck or else it would be very difficult to enter the final round.
"Fifth group." Looking at the wooden stick in his hand, Lu Chen smiled wryly.
"Group one, Tang Jie against Pang Qing." As the referee's voice fell, Tang Jie's tall figure appeared in the center of the high platform. He wore a faint smile on his face and stared at the opponent in front of him with eyes full of ridicule.
"Tsk tsk … I didn't think that Pang Qing would go up against that bastard. "
"However, he's still an existence of Martial Cultivator Stage. He should be able to make that bastard, Tang Jie, expend a bit more effort." Standing beside Lu Chen, Wang Hao was a little curious. Although the whole of Blue Cloud City young warriors knew that Tang Jie's strength was terrifying, very few people had personally witnessed him using his full strength.
"Tang Jie."
"Last time, he refused to join the younger generation of my Blue Cloud Sect." Seated at the highest point of the viewing gallery, Elder Chen muttered softly. He stared at Tang Jie's figure and noticed that there was a Colour Of Hot there.
"You were the one who got lost? Or do you need my help? " Tang Jie hugged his fists and stared at Ye Zichen with a cold smile.
"I want to try how big of a difference there is between you and me." Taking a deep breath, Pang Qing said with a serious expression. Facing the number one person in the younger generation, he showed a rare surging fighting spirit.
"Brother Qing, you can do it!" Cousin Pang Ling was secretly cheering for her brother. Although she knew that Pang Qing was probably no match for Tang Jie, she still had a lot of confidence in her cousin.
"What an unlucky fellow."
"The first battle actually went up against Tang Jie, this monster." Wu Lia and the rest shook their heads. The result of the battle was obvious even without thinking about it.
Pang Qing was one of the outstanding existences in the Pang Family's younger generation. Although his talent wasn't that high, he still had the strength of a fourth stage Martial Cultivator Stage cultivator, so this might be a match that was worth watching.
"Mr. Lu, how long do you think this guy can hold on for?"
"How long?"
"One at most." Lu Chen shook his head and smiled.
"Impossible."
"Pang Qing is a level four Fighter existence." In Devil Cloud Mountain Range, Wang Hao had seen the former in action, and their combat power was equally strong.
"Bam!" Just as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly fell to the ground. Wang Hao's expression changed drastically. It was the unconscious Pang Qing.
One move!
He had only used a single technique.
"Too weak." After saying that, Tang Jie turned around and left.
In almost an instant, the entire audience fell into silence. Even though he knew that Tang Jie was powerful, he would still feel shocked after witnessing it for himself. Pang Qing, who was at Fighter 4-dan, was defeated by him in one move.
