Chapter 251 First Battle
Chapter 251 First Battle
As Hong Bin spoke, the scene was extremely quiet. Even the contestants at the next few tables didn't dare to breathe out a mouthful of air.
Murong Wanqing and the others held back their anger in their hearts, only wishing that they didn't have a chance to erupt.
Xiang Nan's four teammates were frightened. Facing a person of Hong Bin's level, the four of them didn't even have the courage to speak.
Luo Yuan held the wine glass and suddenly laughed loudly, "Hong Bin, it's really shameless of you to say those words."
"Do you want to try again?" Jiang Cheng, Zhou Xianyong, Chu Yan, Yang Lian'er, and the others stood up abruptly. They all stood up with ferocious momentum.
"How is it!" Murong Wanqing, Shen Linhai and the others also stood up together.
The two sides stood opposite each other, each of them unyielding, as if they were ready to attack at any moment.
Only Hong Bin and Luo Yuan were still sitting at the table. Luo Yuan was playing with the wine glass and said, "I wonder who colluded to bully Xiang Nan together."
"In the end, your scheme failed and you became angry? Haha, can't you just bully others and make them stand up to resist?"
"If it's not for your shamelessness, how could you lose so much face!"
The scene was filled with gunpowder.
Hong Bin sneered, "I'm talking to Xiang Nan. What's the matter with you, Luo Yuan?"
Luo Yuan placed his hand on Xiang Nan's shoulder and said, "Xiang Nan is my good brother. You are targeting him, you are targeting me."
Beside him, Zhou Xianyong sneered, "The Luo Clan has been very close to the military these past few years. Their tone has really grown louder."
Seeing that the two sides were getting more and more stiff, Xiang Nan stood up and said to Hong Bin, "Hong Bin, you have finished what you should say. You have done not a single thing you should do. Didn't you come here for me, Xiang Nan?"
"If you have the ability, just use it. You can be like a woman here and act like a man."
"Little bastard!" Hong Bin slapped the table and stood up with a slap. He pointed at Xiang Nan's nose and said, "You have guts! Remember what you just said, don't you regret it? Kneel down and beg me to let you go!"
Xiang Nan took a step forward and almost got close to Hong Bin's face, saying, "Come on."
Hong Bin nodded and said, "Alright, I'll see you in the examination room. You wait for me."
After saying that, the group of people left.
After this group of people made a fuss, everyone lost interest in drinking. Xiang Nan clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, rest. Prepare to have a good race tomorrow and let those bastards have a good experience."
Everyone bid farewell and went back to rest.
Xiang Nan's heart was filled with anger. This had been the case since the auditions were eliminated. Now, he was almost unable to suppress this anger.
Taking advantage of this twelve-sect joint exam, he wanted to settle all his old and new enmities together.
Second-grade students all started to hate him, so what? Even if the entire Haoran Academy hates me, Xiang Nan, I'll stand up straight and show you.
Come on, all of you! Come on!
The next day, the contestants gathered early and rode the flying demonic beasts from the Haoran Sect to the arena.
Early in the morning, the arena was filled with gongs and drums. Some wealthy people from Haotian City actually played lion dances here to help the twelve sects take the joint examination.
The audience also took their seats, watching all kinds of wonderful performances, applause continuously rang out.
When the contestants flew over from the sky, the applause from the crowd reached its peak.
Countless people cheered and welcomed the contestants into the arena.
The peddlers selling jewelry and toys all left the arena and were taken over by the Haoran Sect.
The ten gigantic peaks were still floating in the air, and the tenth peak had already been replaced by a new one because of the serious damage caused by Xiang Nan.
"Look, it's Xiang Nan!"
"Wow, there's Hong Bin!"
"Look, look, it's Murong Wanqing! My God, she seems to be a little more beautiful today."
The audience was filled with anticipation. Everyone had their own contestants.
Although yesterday, Xiang Nan ignited the enthusiasm of the audience with hot blood, but the audience is like this, they never really "faithful" to a person, attitude changes quickly.
Because judging from yesterday's performance, Hong Bin's strength was undoubtedly the brightest, and the scene Xiang Nan made was the most grand.
Everyone in the audience had their own supporters. Surprisingly, Murong Wanqing's approval rating was the highest!
Perhaps, this shocking support rate had something to do with her being a great beauty.
After Elder Shi Beihong appeared, everyone consciously stopped talking.
Today was the second stage, the elimination round. It was also today that all the teams began to draw lots and choose their own regions.
Perhaps it was the will of the heavens, or perhaps it was the good fortune that made people happy. Xiang Nan's team had drawn to the tenth competition area, which was also the tenth peak!
This small episode aroused a heated discussion among the audience.
Once again stepping onto the tenth peak, Xiang Nan's state of mind was calm.
"Alright, let's begin announcing the core rules of the elimination tournament."
Elder Shi Beihong said loudly, "The two teams are competing against each other. They will carry out a five-round system."
"Those who have won three rounds will be counted as advancing. They will no longer be allowed to enter the next two rounds. If both sides have not won two rounds and lost, they will be allowed to enter the fifth round."
"In each round, each team can only send out one member. The names of the participants will be chosen by the teams themselves. Those with the highest number of votes will be selected."
"Now, let's draw lots in the division."
There were a total of fifteen teams on the tenth peak where Xiang Nan was. Each of the five teams was a group, and Xiang Nan chose the first group.
According to the rules of the game, Xiang Nan's team had to fight against the other four teams in the first group to select the top three.
At this time, each of the ten mountain peaks was supervised by a judge.
The referee from the tenth peak raised his right hand and said, "Now, let's invite the first two teams out."
After saying that, the other teams retreated to the edge of the mountain peak.
The first team that Xiang Nan's team was about to face was led by Yi Dong.
This person had always attracted Xiang Nan's attention. He hadn't expected to meet him in the first match.
"Just in time, I'll take this opportunity to probe him." Xiang Nan thought to himself.
Yi Dong was not the first to step on the stage, but lowered his head and stood at the edge of the line. A tall and sturdy man walked onto the open space.
"I'll go first." Liu Cheng was the first to ask for battle.
Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment, but he didn't have the nerve to refuse. He couldn't say that you were too weak. It would be best if I came first, right?
At this moment, the audience was extremely quiet. More than a third of the audience focused their attention on the tenth peak. This was because the tenth peak had just experienced a brilliant and intense battle yesterday. Everyone's enthusiasm for the tenth peak was still very high.
All the contestants moved aside, and Liu Cheng cupped his fists and bowed to the sturdy man from the enemy team.
"I'm Liu Cheng of the Guihai Sect."
The tall and sturdy man said, "Blazing Fire Sect, Hua Meng!"
"Please!"
"Please!"
The two of them waved their hands and immediately began to fight.
Xiang Nan was sweating profusely in his heart. He thought to himself, Liu Cheng must persevere and strive for the first victory!
As a result, Liu Cheng had just taken a step forward when he suddenly cupped his fists and said, "I admit defeat."
The scene was in an uproar.
As if struck by lightning, Xiang Nan was stunned on the spot.
