It was just a drawing of lots. Li Dong was from the Mad Demon Palace and naturally had a good relationship with the Punishment Palace. Naturally, it could be adjusted. If Long Chen found out that his opponent was Li Dong tomorrow, he would definitely not be surprised.
"Hehe."
Li Dong sneered and turned to leave.
In the midst of the turbulence, a day passed quickly. The original thirty thousand disciples had mostly become spectators, discussing the genius martial artists who were lucky enough to enter the top one hundred. The ones who received the most discussion were undoubtedly Lu Junyue's group. Because Long Chen and Feng Zhilin were both Palace Masters and were in the limelight recently, they also received a lot of discussion.
Another thing was the disappearance of Li Cang from the Mad Demon Palace. Li Cang's disappearance was already known to everyone a few days ago. Almost everyone suspected that he had been killed. As for who, no one knew. But previously, Li Cang and Long Chen had a conflict, and now the Mad Demon Palace Master also seemed to be targeting Long Chen …
From these situations, it was not difficult for the crowd to see the strong smell of gunpowder.
Originally, they thought that the Mad Demon Palace had no chance in the Hidden Dragon Rank battle, but they did not expect that the Mad Demon Palace would actually have a new figure who was adopted by the Mad Demon Palace Master as his son. Following the Mad Demon Palace Master's surname, he was Li Dong. It was rumored that Li Dong's achievements in the Mad Demon Heart Sutra had already caught up with Li Cang, and in other aspects, he was almost the same as Li Cang.
Similarly, Li Dong had also cultivated a ninth rank divine skill.
An eighth rank divine skill was already a treasure, not to mention a ninth rank divine skill. Even in the Full Moon Pavilion, ninth rank divine skills were quite rare.
The closer it was to noon, the more the crowd looked forward to it. Soon, noon was about to arrive. The Law Enforcement Elder Yang Wang had already risen into the air, looking at the crowd below, and said in a clear voice, "Disciples of the Great Hound Tusk, please come out and draw lots to determine the order of battle and opponents."
Long Chen and the others followed his words and came to the field. There were already many Law Enforcement Elders waiting here, preparing the tools for drawing lots. It was very simple, it was a huge wooden box with one hundred balls inside. At the same time, there was also a soul suppressing stone to prevent people from using their Divine Sense to spy.
After waiting for the one hundred experts to take their places, he raised his head and said in a clear voice, "There are numbers one to fifty-four, and so on. Each number has two balls, and those who draw the same number will be their opponents. There will be five battles every time. In other words, the warriors who draw numbers one to five will immediately go to the Hidden Dragon Battlefield for elimination battles. Numbers six to ten will wait for a while. After the five battles are over and the Grand Supreme Elders have finished grading them, the next five battles will begin."
This rule was easy to understand, Long Chen had understood it before the competition.
In fact, whether it was the battle of the War Hounds Realm or the second round of four elimination matches, he did not place them in his eyes at all. What he was concerned about was the final point battle. Of course, this did not exclude the possibility of meeting an expert in the elimination matches.
If that was the case, it would be fine if it was in the first two battles, as his opponent could still be revived. However, if it was in the last two battles, he would not be able to enter the top eight.
Among the one hundred people, Lu Junyue and the others were all present. Each and every one of them stood out like a crane among a flock of chickens. Their temperament and status were not something an ordinary cultivator could compare with. Yan Qingchen was also here. When Long Chen arrived, he patted Long Chen's shoulder and laughed, "I heard from my Martial Uncle that I am no longer your opponent. What he said is true."
There was no jealousy in Yan Qingchen's eyes, only happiness.
"Just wait and see," Long Chen said with a smile.
"That's right. With your strength, you will definitely enter the top eight. At that time, I will fight with you for real and let you see my strength." Yan Qingchen laughed.
At this moment, the people on the other side urged Long Chen and Yan Qingchen to draw lots. After Yan Qingchen drew his lot, Long Chen stretched his hand into the pool. There were not many balls left. He casually picked one and saw that it was number 54.
In other words, he would be the last one to fight today.
Long Chen did not care. He went to the side with Yan Qingchen and exchanged numbers. It turned out that Yan Qingchen was number 6 and he was going to fight soon.
For the two of them, it did not matter.
When they returned to their own place, the fierce battles in the Hidden Dragon Battlefield had already begun. Those who could enter the top one hundred in the five battles were all at least in the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm. The five battles were all very intense. Very soon, the Hidden Dragon Ranking Battles were all heated up, forming a small climax.
Everyone was fighting for the glory of the palace they were in.
Therefore, everyone was extremely hot-blooded and fought with all their might.
As for the battles of Yan Qingchen and the others, there was no suspense. The strength of the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm allowed them to suppress their opponents. Within a few moves, their opponents would either lose or admit defeat. Basically, when one reached the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm and did not meet an opponent of the same level in the elimination battles, they would usually win.
Everyone knew that Yan Qingchen's group was at the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm. Li Dong and Li Cang could barely catch up with them. Next, it should be Long Chen and Feng Zhilin's group. Many people knew that Feng Zhilin had reached the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm, but there were still some who did not know.
After Yan Qingchen's battle, it was Feng Zhilin's turn.
Her long dress fluttered as she walked onto the stage. Her opponent was a short but strong man. He looked like a muscle ball. Looking at Feng Zhilin's cute face, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, sister. I won't bully you. I am very gentle."
At this moment, Yang Wang announced the start of the battle.
Feng Zhilin's eyes were cold. She waved her hand and instantly, countless wind blades flew out and cut off the cultivator's arms and legs. She had won the battle. The short and strong cultivator cried out in pain. His eyes were filled with fear as he looked at the beautiful woman.
Feng Zhilin's swift and decisive methods shocked the crowd. In an instant, the entire Hidden Dragon Platform was in an uproar, cheering for Feng Zhilin's strength. Her opponent was at the peak of the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm. Without a doubt, Feng Zhilin had reached the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm, becoming a new expert.
In an instant, the crowd burst into cheers.
As for the cultivator who had lost his arms and legs, no one cared about him. He was just a stepping stone for Feng Zhilin. After Feng Zhilin calmly returned to her own Divine Wind Hall, someone carried him off the platform.
From the beginning to the end, Feng Zhilin's face was cold and arrogant. She didn't even look at Long Chen. However, Long Chen knew that she was putting on a show for him.
Next, the battles continued. In order to get a higher ranking in the Hidden Dragon Ranking, or even enter the top eight, everyone went crazy.
In the battles, there were still deaths. In this first round of elimination, two people had died. Both of them had experienced fierce battles and couldn't stop in time.
The reason why there were one hundred and ten fangs instead of one hundred was that there would be deaths.
"This time, there are still six dead people left. I don't think it will be enough."
When Long Chen thought of this, all the cultivators had already made their moves. When night fell, the last group went up. There were only four battles left in the last group.
Seeing that Long Chen was in this group, many people couldn't help but look forward to it. Eight people went down together. Long Chen could see with one glance that Li Dong also came down from the Crazy Demon Hall. He looked at Long Chen like a vulture and seemed to be a little proud.
Everyone exclaimed. There were still two people who had a chance to enter the top eight. Then, would they meet each other?
For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar.
Then, they found that Li Dong and Long Chen actually went to the last Hidden Dragon Battlefield at the same time, which was the fourth battlefield. This meant that they were both number 54.
For a moment, the whole crowd was excited. They didn't expect that in the first round of elimination, there would be two strong cultivators meeting each other, forming the biggest climax.
Soon, Long Chen stood on the fourth Hidden Dragon Battlefield, staring at his arrogant and despotic opponent.
Almost everyone cast their eyes on them.
Many people knew that this level of coincidence could no longer be considered a coincidence. The people of the Crazed Devil Palace must have changed some things in order to teach Long Chen a lesson. The people of the Crazed Devil Palace were notorious among the three thousand palaces. Because they were like mad dogs. Being targeted by them was not beneficial at all.
Long Chen understood this. If he didn't beat this group of mad dogs until they were afraid, they would definitely not stop.
Long Chen regretted not directly killing the more than one hundred people.
For a moment, countless people held their breath, waiting for Yang Wang to announce the start of the battle.
Around them, Lu Junyue and the others also frowned as they watched this battle. They were conflicted. If Long Chen lost and died at the hands of Li Dong, it didn't seem to be enough to vent their hatred. Feng Zhilin was even more so. She had paid a great price to exchange for a method that could kill a peak ninth level Divine Martial Realm warrior, just to make Long Chen miserable for the rest of his life.
If he was directly killed by Li Dong, it would be a great loss.
However, the mad dogs of the Crazy Demon Hall liked to make the first move. They couldn't do anything about it. They looked at the eyes of Long Chen, and from his eyes, they didn't see any fear.
"Right, even if he loses, he probably won't die. After all, he is fast. If his performance is good, he can be resurrected after two rounds."
Thinking of this, Feng Zhilin and Lu Junyue heaved a sigh of relief.
Just when everyone was looking forward to it, Yang Wang announced the start of the battle. The flames of war instantly ignited in the other three battles. On this side, Li Dong crossed his arms, looking at Long Chen with a look of contempt, as if telling Long Chen to use whatever methods he had.
Shentu Hong and the others clenched their fists, extremely nervous.
