Xuantian Dragon Zun

But her performance just shows that Du Long's strength is very problematic.

"Stinky boy! Qinglian obviously didn't want to lie when she said that. It seems that you must have concealed your true strength, hmph! Since you are only willing to show your strength at the beginning of the ninth level of qi accumulation, then the next trouble will be enough You drink a pot!" Basically getting the answer she wanted from Xia Qinglian, Du Caini squinted at Du Long, angrily, but also gloating!

"Trouble?" Du Long suddenly remembered that the old dean had said similar things just now.

"Du Long!" Princess Huofeng said at the right time: "You don't know that the annual recruitment of martial arts students, because the number of students who meet the requirements exceeds the standard, in the end, we have to conduct new training among the students who are at the beginning of the ninth level of energy accumulation. A round of screening, right?"

Du Long couldn't help frowning and asked: "Didn't you say that you can enter the Royal Academy if you reach the ninth level of energy accumulation? What about the new round of screening?"

"You are wrong! Only when you reach the ninth level of energy accumulation before the age of 20 can you enter the Royal Academy steadily. There is not much difference in strength between the early ninth level and the eighth level. The academy depends on each person's actual combat level and selects the best for admission!" Zeng Wan'er, the daughter of the second-rank Libu Shangshu, explained softly.

Du Long was dumbfounded on the spot when he heard this. Although he was not afraid of being challenged, he was afraid of troubles.

Before testing the crystals, one student after another came to the stage to test. The process was fairly fast, and it was over soon. It was almost time for lunch. Several instructors sorted out the results and handed them over to the old man with white beard.

He glanced at it briefly, then stood up slowly and stood in the middle of the rostrum: "There are a total of 165 martial arts students participating in the special test this time, and 57 of them have reached the ninth level of energy accumulation and above. Among them, 20 students who have reached the ninth-level consummation will be admitted directly, and the other thirty-seven early-stage ninth-level students will gather here after lunch for a new round of screening! This morning's test is over!"

After the announcement, the old dean handed over the information in his hand to a certain tutor, and left without looking back after explaining a few words by the way!

In order to save time, Du Long and the others found a restaurant with good conditions outside the academy. After having lunch together, they rushed back to the playground behind the Royal Academy to wait for a new round of selection.

Among them, Du Long, Xia Qinglian, Yue Xiaoshan, and Liu Zixin need to go through a new round of screening, and people like Huofeng Princess, Zeng Wan'er, Xu Luyin, Lin Shi and others have reached the ninth level of energy accumulation and do not need to be screened again .

After waiting for half an hour, the mentors entered the arena one after another, and then the old dean came with an old woman who looked to be in her fifties or sixties, with gray hair and a ruddy complexion.

"Huh? I didn't expect that even the dean's wife would come to watch the new round of screening. It's really rare!" Du Caini, an old fritter from the Royal Academy, exclaimed on the spot.

‘Do you dare to believe that this old woman is the old man’s wife? ’ Du Long also took a second look curiously, and found that this old woman was kind and kind, and she looked much more pleasing to the eye than the old dean.

After respectfully helping his wife to sit down, the old dean came to the front of the stage and shouted: "Is everyone here? If you are late, you will be abstained!"

According to the old rules, you group of privileged students can only have 30 places each year, and now there are 20 people who have reached the ninth level of energy accumulation and are directly admitted. In this way, among your other thirty-seven early-level ninth-level students, Only ten people have the opportunity to enter the Royal Academy!

The old man is too lazy to talk nonsense! All the students who have reached the early stage of the ninth level of qi accumulation, all go to the instructor to draw lots, and those who draw the same number will fight in the same group, and whoever does not draw the opponent will directly advance to the bye! "

As the dean's old man's voice fell, the two instructors came to the sidelines each holding a wooden box, and more than thirty students stepped forward to draw lots. Du Long naturally stepped forward to draw lots together with Xia Qinglian, Yue Xiaoshan and Liu Zixin, in order not to be with himself People draw the same group, and all four choose the same instructor to draw lots.

The results of the lottery came out soon, and the entire playground was cleared of irrelevant personnel, and the playground was divided into areas about 20 meters square, and each area was marked with a number.

"Everyone, according to the number you have drawn, enter the corresponding area to prepare for the game. The rules are very simple, you can only use your hands and feet, and you are not allowed to use any weapons or auxiliary means of attack! One party admits defeat, or is knocked down, and is knocked out Until the battle area! Remember not to injure people’s lives at will!”

Thirty-seven people entered nineteen battle areas respectively. Originally, only one person was supposed to have a bye, but because one guy was late, two people were lucky enough to get a bye. One of them was Du Long!

Standing bored in the battle area with another lucky guy, Du Long began to watch the competition of the other seventeen battlefields with great interest. On the rostrum, the old dean frowned and looked at the triumphant Du Long, and turned to a certain mentor Said: "Go! Let the two byes not be idle, let them fight!"

The mentor immediately got up and went to make arrangements. The originally leisurely Du Long could only meet up with another guy and start preparing for the battle!

On the rostrum, the dean pointed at Xia Qinglian and said, "Old woman, have you seen the woman in the white dress in area 7? It's her!"

Following the direction pointed by the dean's old man, the dean's wife looked at Xia Qinglian in the No. 7 competition field with great interest, and couldn't help nodding and smiling in response: "That's right, it really is the best of the yin physique, and it looks good. Very handsome! I don’t know how to cultivate and understand? You have to take a closer look!”

The preliminaries began soon. Compared with the excitement of the other dozen or so arenas, the two matches between Du Long and Xia Qinglian seemed a bit weird, and the winner was decided in the blink of an eye.

In Du Long's arena, he didn't even bother to make moves with his opponent, he just dodged and took the initiative to attack, blasting the opponent out of bounds with one palm, the same is true in Xia Qinglian's arena!

After a year of painstaking cultivation under the Lingyun Mountain, the two of them were still wearing heavy vests. Their strength was not comparable to that of their opponents at the same level, not to mention that Du Long was still hiding his strength!

'This is the end? ’ All the people outside the arena who followed the battle between Du Long and Xia Qinglian were dumbfounded. Many people didn't understand what was going on, and the battle was over!

It is estimated that only two old guys in the entire playground saw the actions of Du Long and Xia Qinglian clearly. They were the dean and his wife on the podium. The dean's attention was focused on the battlefield where Du Long was, and the dean's wife was on On Xia Qinglian.

"A seemingly simple blow is actually not simple at all. Combined with the mysterious footwork, the opponent is thrown out of bounds without even taking a defensive stance!" The dean's wife murmured after a long time of astonishment. Said.

"Okay! The top 18 has been produced, and the referee group voted to select two students from the 18 eliminated to advance to the top 20. Now the draw will determine the battle to advance to the top 10!" Soon the first promotion match ended Now, it's time to enter the crucial second promotion match.

The twenty contestants who won the final promotion round stepped forward to draw lots one by one, and the results of the lottery came out soon. When the ten groups of competitors stood face to face with each other, many people were shocked to find that Du Long actually played against Li Xiaojun. Taiwan war!

Grinning with a joking smile on his face, Du Long put his hands on his chest and looked up at this enemy's arch-enemy, showing his disdain. This is really a narrow road for enemies!

Last time I dealt with this guy in Zuixianglou, I never thought that I would get another chance to deal with him openly so soon!

To be honest, Li Xiaojun was still very afraid of Du Long deep down in his heart. He and Fan Wei had suffered a great loss at his hands in the Zuixianglou battle, and almost didn't even have the face to participate in the next day's Palace New Year's celebration!
