C1988 On the Eve of the Competition(3)
Yanh Liang, who was surprised by Fann Binn's words, stuttered, "Um... Mr. Fann, I... I can't take away your power. I won't agree to this no matter what."
Yu Tianlai, who was standing next to him, did not expect Fann Binn to expose his little scheme. He said awkwardly, "Fann Binn, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean it that way. Actually..."
"It doesn't matter. Patriarch, I can understand your helplessness as the leader of Tianyu family. It's only right to choose one more target as insurance. I also support letting Yanh Liang become my substitute. After all, his ranking and skills are the best among the five contestants. I think we should let him replace me and fight for the position of the future patriarch. There is still a high chance. "
Fann Binn didn't show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he smiled as if he understood. "Yanh Liang is my subordinate. I have no objections to him being a substitute."
Yu Tianlai coughed awkwardly twice, even though Fann Binn showed that he had a big belly. No matter what, he still felt bad about it. After all, Fann Binn was the one he chose, but now he needed to find a backup contestant. That was undoubtedly the greatest distrust towards him. No matter what he said, he would feel guilty. However, for the future of Tianyu family, he had no choice but to do so. Who asked Fann Binn to choose the secret manual? He just had to choose the Formless Traceless Fist Fist Manual!
Seeing Fann Binn say this, Yanh Liang could only bite the bullet and agree. At this time, Yu Tianlai did not seem to be in the mood. He nodded apologetically at Fann Binn, then walked back to the elders' side.
He looked at Yu Yide and communicated with him for a while, then said to the people gathered in the square. "The people of Tianyu family, today is going to be held in this square. It will be the third test, the arena competition! The five foreign candidates will be waiting in the arena after drawing lots. They will use the new martial arts that they have cultivated in seclusion for a week to fight against each other. In the end, they will choose the final three candidates."
"After this test, the rankings will be based on the overall score. The person with the highest overall score in the three tests will have the chance to go to the family's Sacred Land to cultivate the inner arts and mental cultivation methods. And he will also be given the right to participate in the competition for the future Patriarch of the Tianyu family! Let us all witness the arrival of this moment. Let all of our family members cheer for them! "
" Oh! " Shouts that blotted out the sky and covered the earth erupted from the mouths of the clansmen who were watching from the Tianyu family. Instantly, it resounded throughout the entire square. Under the request of the family head, every single one of the family members burst out with their highest voices. This kind of voice would undoubtedly give off a majestic and heroic aura, causing the atmosphere in the entire square to reach its climax.
"Next, I declare! The third round of the examination will now officially begin!" After Patriarch Yu extended his hand and announced to the sky, he turned his gaze to the five contestants below the arena who were ready to fight. He said faintly, "From among you, the final victor will be born. I have high hopes for each of you, and I also hope that you can carry out the competition fairly and fairly. However, before the competition begins, I still have a few rules that I need to explain"
" The third and final round of assessment will be held in the arena behind you. The five contestants drew lots to fight each other. As there were less than six of them, therefore, the first round of the competition will be vacant. The contestants who were empty handed would directly advance to the second round, and the two contestants who failed in the first round would once again proceed to the repechage. In the final round, one contestant would be eliminated from the first round of the competition, and the remaining four contestants would proceed to the second round of the competition. Both of them would still draw lots, and in the end, the two of them would win the third round of the competition for the first and second place. The two who fail will compete for the third place. "
"That's why the rotating person's luck is very bad. He will miss the first round and directly advance to the second round. Also, in the competition, the arena must display the new martial arts that you have learned during the seven days of seclusion. As long as the referee determines that you haven't used the new martial arts, you will be punished for violating the rules and being eliminated."
"Therefore, I advise everyone not to make any small movements, or perhaps it is because you subconsciously use your original martial arts. When the time comes, it will be very unfair to be expelled. In the arena, injuries can be allowed. However, extreme violence was absolutely not allowed, and the situation of the contestant's death could be seen. A life threatening situation could only be allowed in the event of an accident, or if the opponent would rather die than surrender. In principle, it was possible. Other times, it was not allowed to use a killing move to kill someone. Do you understand?"
"I understand!!" The five contestants answered at the same time. At this moment, it was obvious that they were trying to figure out their own plan.
The difference from the first and second round was that this round... They were going to use the new martial arts that they had just learned, and the previous tests had been tested by the martial arts competition all over the country. Everyone had a general understanding of each other's martial arts and abilities. However, it was different now. It was a complete mess to use the new martial arts. No one knew who's ability had changed, so this exam could be said to be full of variables.
Under such circumstances, he could expose his new martial art's ability a little later. Naturally, it would create an unexpected effect for him, so the five contestants were clearly aware. Whoever could obtain the empty slot was undoubtedly the most advantageous. Not only could they retain the mysteriousness of their attacks, but they could also look at the other contestants' new martial arts. Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, naturally they would have a very good advantage.
"This is a box of lots. Everyone, come and draw a number. Those who draw a number will determine the progress of the match based on the map drawn on the blackboard." At this time, Lu Xun, who was beside him, picked up the lottery box. He handed it over. It was done. In front of the five contestants.
"The earlier I draw, the earlier I finish. I will draw sooner or later. If you don't make a move, then I'll go first." Fann Binn looked at the others and saw that they were hesitating. Without saying a word, he swaggered over and was the first to walk over. He reached in and took out a piece of paper. Surprisingly, the number 4 was written on it!
"Number 4? Let me see..." Lu Xun looked at the map on the blackboard and looked at Fann Binn in surprise. He said in surprise, "This... congratulations, Fann Binn. The first round of the round is empty. You can directly advance to the second round."
"What? It can't be, right?"
"Wow, that works too?"
" Doesn't... doesn't this mean that the other contestants have no hope of getting a free pass? "
"What kind of luck is this guy getting!?"
The contestants and the audience all exclaimed in surprise. It was obvious that no one had expected this. Fann Binn was the first one to draw a lot, and he actually drew an empty wheel! What did this mean? This meant that he could directly skip the first round of the competition and advance to the second round. He could also sit there and quietly watch the other four contestants' competition, and clearly understand the characteristics of their new martial arts. Then find the flaws and flaws!
Even if he could not find any flaws, he could at least familiarize himself with their martial arts. He could be prepared and confident! How big of an advantage was it that Fann Binn had taken it away just like that?
Yu Tianlai and the other elders obviously did not expect Fann Binn to draw the best lot first. While they sighed at his good luck, Yu Tianlai and the others could not help but sweat for Fann Binn. After all, in their hearts, Fann Binn's new martial arts practice was really bad. Under such circumstances, even if he got such a good empty lot, it would still be quite difficult to compete for first place, right?
"Hmph, I ran into some dog shit luck. This guy really didn't see through it. You said he was lucky, right? Why would a lucky guy learn a rubbish secret skill like the Formless Traceless Fist?" Chu Yuzhu couldn't help but sneer, "So what if this guy got a free rotation? Without strength, even if he is free, he still won't have any chance to turn the tables!"
Fann Binn didn't hear Chu Yuzhu's sneer and disdainful words. In fact, he was also very surprised at this moment. He didn't expect to get such an empty lot by accident. But then again, who did not want him to get such a good draw? Being able to get an empty lot naturally meant that Fann Binn had taken another step towards victory!
Since the empty draw had already been taken away by Fann Binn, then there were naturally four empty draws in the box. The number that had to be fought. The hesitation of the other four contestants, who had lost all hope, had completely disappeared. One by one, they reached into the box and pulled out their numbers. Very soon, under Lu Xun's record, the names of the contestants from the two groups were officially announced.
"Next, I announce that the first contestant for the first round is Yanh Liang, who drew lots to number 01, and Qin Wenjing, who drew lots to number 05. Next, I announce that the first contestant for the first round is Yanh Liang, who drew lots to number 01, and Qin Wenjing, who drew lots to draw lots to number 05. The second contestant was number 02, Yu Yuehuan, and number 03, Zhao Youting. Next, the four contestants please make some preparations. The competition will begin immediately. " After saying that, Lu Xun went to report to the elders to register. At this time, the whispers in the square became more and more chaotic.
Fann Binn looked at Yanh Liang and then looked at Qin Wenjing, who had not spoken for a long time. He did not expect Qin Wenjing to fight Yanh Liang in the first match.
If it was based on real strength, Qin Wenjing would not be a match for Yanh Liang. She absolutely had no chance of winning. But now, since both of them were going to use a new martial art, as for the exact strength of both sides, they would have to fight to know.
Fann Binn did not communicate with Qin Wenjing, who had a calm expression on her face. He did not know how her new martial arts were trained. It was hard to say whether she had a chance of winning against Yanh Liang this time.
As for Yu Yuehuan and Zhao Youting, he did not care about them that much. It would be best if Yu Yuehuan lost to Zhao Youting. This way, the chess pieces that Chu Ming had placed in the contestants would be completely wiped out. However, when he was resting just now, he heard that there seemed to be a very good secret manual in the secret chamber that Yu Yuehuan had chosen this time. It was estimated that it would be very difficult to defeat him. It would depend on whether Zhao Youting could do it or not.
They said that it was time for the contestants to prepare, but the contestants obviously would not make any preparations under the circumstances of so many people. At most, they would move their hands and feet to warm up.
After the competition's opponents were divided, the atmosphere among the contestants became more and more tense. Where there was competition, there would be pressure, and where there was pressure, there would naturally be motivation. The four contestants began to make their own plans, although they did not know what they were thinking. However, they were certain that they were making the final mental preparation.
