The Treasure Generating Bowl - Chapter 1377
Chapter 1376 Draw for the Round of 16
“In the fifth match, the defending champion, Tantai Qijun, faces the challenger seed…”
The words of the True One Immortal Emperor rang out once more.
He Pingsheng didn’t pay attention to the competition in the fifth group because it was basically none of his business.
On the other side, Yao Kaidi approached him with a smile: “Fellow Daoist He…we meet again, hehehe…”
Yao Kaidi cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng nodded and said, “Fellow Daoist Feilong, your charm is as undiminished as ever!”
“Hahaha…” Yao Kaidi laughed heartily, and after a while he said again, “But, Fellow Daoist He, why did you change your name? You… that He Pingsheng?”
“To be honest, I’ve been keeping an eye on you for a while now!”
He Pingsheng said, “This is a long story, so I won’t go into it!”
“All you need to know is that my name is now Wang Dun!”
“Alright, alright!” Yao Kaidi said, “Fellow Daoist Wang, I’ll challenge you later!”
He Pingsheng: …………
Good heavens!
But there’s nothing we can do; those are the rules of the game!
There are sixteen groups competing, sixteen defending champions, and sixteen challengers.
After failing to challenge a seed, you can challenge the defending champion from another group.
This is the rule, and it’s also the right of the seeds.
But after thinking for a moment, He Pingsheng shook his head and said, “If you don’t want to waste your time, you’d better not look for me!”
Yao Kaidi asked, “Why?”
He Pingsheng smiled without saying a word!
Yao Kaidi said, “Alright… I believe you. Fellow Daoist, could you give me some pointers on which defender is the weakest?”
He Pingsheng looked at it from front to back.
Aside from some people he knew, the weakest of the sixteen defenders were Luo Bingyao, the Holy Son of the Tantai family, Ao Xun of the Dragon Clan, and a guy from the Divine Ape Clan named Mao Yiwang.
They are the weakest of the four!
Of course, He Pingsheng was only judging from the background.
“The weakest one should be Luo Bingyao!” He Pingsheng pointed to his disciple.
Luo Bingyao’s face darkened: “Master, how can you say that about your disciple?”
He Pingsheng smiled and said, “Although my disciple Luo Bingyao is the weakest, I advise you not to go up. You can’t beat Bingyao!”
Yao Kaidi looked dejected: “Forget it… I’m not playing anymore, it’s pointless, I can’t get into the top three no matter what!”
indeed!
In this round, only the top three finishers receive points, so many people are not very competitive.
The competition on stage continued, but it was still not very entertaining.
For example, Ji Wuxin and others, although they were eighth-rank talents, their combat power was a level below that of geniuses like Wang Dun, He Pingsheng, and Han Houzhi who were unparalleled throughout the ages, but their opponents were very weak, as for those with seventh-rank or even lower-rank talents.
Therefore, even geniuses like Ji Wuxin and Tantai Qijun can still defeat their opponents within two or three moves during a competition.
That would basically eliminate any entertainment value!
Tantai Qijun, Ji Wuxin, Huozheng Nan, Huozheng Xu, Xuan Gu, Xiling Tianchen, and Kong Shengji are ten eighth-rank prodigies.
Besides these ten, there are five more: Tantai Shengzi, Li Zijun, Ao Xun, Luo Bingyao, and Mao Yiwang.
He Pingsheng couldn’t clearly see Li Zijun’s bloodline origins, but the other four all had top-tier origins among the seventh-grade.
It wasn’t until Tantai Shengzi’s turn that the competition became somewhat interesting, with opponents able to put up a good fight.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to determine a result without dozens of rounds of fighting.
Therefore, the time seems particularly long.
Tantai Shengzi wins!
Li Zijun wins!
Ao Xun wins!
Then, Luo Bingyao from Group 15 went on stage to face off against Xiling Saintess Xiling Tianxue.
Luo Bingyao’s expression was more solemn than ever before.
“Bingyao…I’m sorry!”
“Actually, I’ve been kept in the dark all along. I had no idea about the family’s plans. Believe me, in my heart, I’ve always considered you my best sister!”
“I know I’ve wronged you, but you have to believe me, I never meant to hurt you!”
“Fortunately, you suffered no losses, and our Xiling family also paid a considerable price!”
“Can…you forgive me?”
Xi Ling Tianxue looked at Luo Bingyao.
Luo Bingyao shook her head: “Put away your sisterly affection. You don’t even believe what you’re saying, do you?”
“I’m serious!” Xiling Tianxue said, “If you forgive me, I promise I will never hurt you again, and I can even admit defeat in this competition!”
Xi Ling Tian Xue’s current cultivation level is slightly lower than Luo Bing Yao’s, only at the eleventh level.
Moreover, although both of them are of the seventh rank, there are still differences between the seventh rank and the seventh rank.
Relatively speaking, Luo Bingyao is at the top level among the seventh rank.
He was just a hair’s breadth away from reaching the eighth rank.
Xi Ling Tian Xue’s background is only slightly lower than Luo Bing Yao’s.
With such a lower foundation and a slightly lower cultivation level, one’s combat power would also be considerably lower.
With Luo Bingyao’s supernatural powers and innate spiritual root, Xiling Tianxue would have almost no chance of defeating her without external assistance.
Therefore, Xiling Tianxue was very clever. Knowing that she couldn’t win, she thought of using admitting defeat to gain Luo Bingyao’s forgiveness.
And even if you beat them, it doesn’t matter if you don’t make it into the top three.
But if you can get the other party’s forgiveness, then it is still meaningful.
Xi Ling Tian Xue’s plan was quite clever, but unfortunately Luo Bing Yao ignored it.
Luo Bingyao sat directly on the stone stool, and the next moment she unleashed her divine sense, arriving in the illusion array.
My dear reader, there’s more to —even more exciting content awaits!
Xi Ling Tianxue had no choice but to follow them in.
boom……
Without any hesitation, Luo Bingyao immediately unleashed the immortal spiritual power within her body, transforming it into a thousand-foot-long phantom of a blood-red blade!
Supernatural Power: Heavenly Net Blood Blade Slash!
“Heavenly Net Blood Blade Slash?” Xiling Tianxue exclaimed in shock, “Luo Bingyao, are you using the divine power of my Xiling family to deal with me?”
“Hmph…” Luo Bingyao snorted coldly and said, “Open your dog eyes and see clearly, this divine ability is a top-grade Heaven-rank, not your family’s broken mid-grade one!”
After saying that, Luo Bingyao brought her knife down!
This attack not only incorporated the power of immortals but also the power of divine thought.
However, Xiling Tianxue was the holy maiden of the Xiling family and was extremely familiar with the Heavenly Luo Blood Blade Slash. She dodged left and right and used offense as defense, and still managed to block Luo Bingyao’s attack with great difficulty.
Then the two began a fierce battle, exchanging blows.
All the way, Luo Bingyao was the one who kept Xiling Tianxue at bay.
Around the seventeenth or eighteenth move, Luo Bingyao finally managed to kill the Holy Maiden of Xiling by virtue of her own advantage.
Luo Bingyao wins in Group 15!
Then, in the sixteenth group, Mao Yiwang won.
In all sixteen groups, without exception, the defending champions won, and all the challengers failed.
“Tianxue, go challenge Wang Dun from the first group… He’s a complete fool, you can definitely beat him!”
After all the competitions were over, Kong Shengji gave Xiling Tianxue some advice.
Xi Ling Tianxue nearly vomited blood: Me? Challenge Wang Dun?
I don’t know how my great-grandfather died.
“Is there anyone who wants to challenge the other champions?” Zhenyi Immortal Emperor asked, looking at everyone.
As a result, no one took the challenge.
“Alright!” Zhenyi said, “Since there are no challenges, the sixteen people who have advanced, come over and draw lots to choose your opponents!”
