Chapter 112 Promotion Ranking
Chapter 112 Promotion Ranking
"How do you calculate this time?"
Several people at the table turned their eyes to Qingsongzi. Qingsongzi whispered a few words to the disciples beside him, and two disciples immediately left.
Then they came up carrying a large, beautifully carved wooden sign.
Behind the first row hung a previously carved wooden plaque reading: Master Bai Yuan. Following it was the time it took him to clear the level: ten and a half minutes, or a quarter of an hour.
The second line naturally contained Lu Zhaozhao's name, and the time taken was ten and eight minutes.
The two times were so close that it could almost be considered extremely fast. Even Qingsongzi, the host, did not expect it.
"The results will be temporarily displayed here. After the competition is over, someone will display them on the Baizhang Cliff in the courtyard for everyone's reference."
Qingsongzi added to everyone at the table.
At this time, two people have achieved results. The happiest ones are those from Wenyuan Academy and Emperor Huizong of Qing. After all, no one in this batch will achieve higher results.
Ying Che breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with relief, but soon his heart rose to his throat again because Nian Zhi's condition was not very good.
Perhaps the first two gave the people present some illusions, they had been waiting for the third place to appear, but half an hour had passed, not only was there no new ranking, but the other disciples in the secret room were in dire straits.
Many disciples did not figure out the rules at the beginning, and touched all five puppets, but instead activated them at the same time. Under the attack of the five puppets, they were inevitably a little flustered.
Someone even subdued a puppet, inserted the key into the door, and then sat down to meditate and rest, hoping to recover some strength before continuing. However, he never expected that once the key was inserted, the remaining puppets would be activated at the same time, and he was caught off guard.
Various situations are happening frequently, and at least for now, it seems that it will be difficult for anyone to come out in a short period of time.
After Lu Zhaozhao and Master Bai Yuan returned to the banquet from two different roads respectively, the third person appeared.
At the last moment when the five puppets attacked him together, Liaochou of the Sword Tomb had his outer robe torn off, revealing his face hidden under the clothes.
Long red marks covered the entire face, with a vermilion dot on the forehead, as if a drop of blood had fallen there, and the pupils were also blood red.
Many people were frightened by his appearance, and glanced towards the sword tomb intentionally or unintentionally.
But Liao Chou was in the secret room at the moment and could not sense any of this. He only saw him clasp his hands together and mutter something softly.
Thousands of rays of light emerged from his body, condensing into countless weapons of different appearances, rushing straight towards the puppet.
In a flash, heaven and earth were silent.
The next moment, all five puppets were dismembered and their parts scattered all over the floor.
Many people present were shocked by this scene and slowly stood up.
Lu Zhaozhao happened to see this scene when he came back.
Others might find it hard to understand, but Lu Zhaozhao, who had experienced the trials, was well aware of the puppet's strength. It seemed hard to believe that it could be dismembered so easily.
But... since he has such means, why did he wait until now to use it?
Lu Zhaozhao looked at the banquet at the Sword Tomb. Most of the disciples at the Sword Tomb were shocked. Only the leader was calm, but there was some worry between his brows.
Could it be that Liao Chou hadn't intended to use this attack so early? Was he simply forced into it?
Considering the expression of the Sword Tomb Sect Leader, Lu Zhaozhao felt that this idea was not impossible.
She lowered her eyes. If Master Bai Yuan hadn't lied to her, then Liao Chou was indeed only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. Therefore, in order to break the impasse, he had to use the power of the Master of the Weapon. This made sense.
So, how did Master Bai Yuan pass the level?
Lu Zhaozhao moved and wanted to ask Ying Che beside her, but when she saw him staring at the mirror with a nervous look on his face, she stopped her outstretched hand in the air, paused, and then retracted it.
He randomly found a disciple and asked him about what Master Bai Yuan had done when they were in the secret room just now.
The young disciple recounted the scene to her in detail.
The mirror reflected the entire chamber, naturally lacking in detail. According to the disciple, he saw Master Bai Yuan activate all five puppets simultaneously, then move through them. A faint golden thread seemed to linger wherever he passed. At almost a quarter of an hour, he suddenly stopped, standing right in the middle. The positions of the five puppets were exactly the same as at the start.
Then, a golden light suddenly appeared, and the entire secret room was covered with light, and the people outside could not see anything.
The light faded, and Master Bai Yuan had already left the secret room. On the ground, the puppet was in pieces.
After hearing this, Lu Zhaozhao couldn't help but look at Master Bai Yuan who was sitting in the upper seat. He was being talked to by Qing Songzi at the moment.
Lu Zhaozhao recalled his actions in East Lake. At that time, she thought that this was most of his strength. But now, it seems that this person is hiding even deeper. It is only the initial level, and it is impossible for him to use his full strength. However, the ability displayed by Master Bai Yuan at present is enough to make her alert.
When she turned her gaze back to the mirror, many people had already passed the level.
On the wooden sign, many people's names and times were densely written. The names of Master Bai Yuan and Lu Zhaozhao were hung high at the top, ranking at the top with a huge advantage.
Going down, there is Polygonum multiflorum.
This is exactly the same as Wenrenlu. It must be said that this Zhezhishanren has a unique vision.
Further down, there were several names listed in parallel, and Lu Zhaozhao saw Bai Yuanzhou's name among them.
It seems that these two brothers from Wenyuan Academy are really coming in strong this year.
Yao Tong was surprisingly ranked behind the others. This year, she was the highest ranked Tianyin Sect member, but she was only ranked tenth.
But after all, the competition has just begun, and no one can predict what will happen next. Perhaps he has hidden his strength, or how much he has hidden is still unknown.
The ranking has grown to more than seventy people, and the latest one to be added is Nian Zhi, which surprised Lu Zhaozhao a little.
She vaguely remembered that although Nian Zhi's ranking in the book was not the best, it was also very close. It seemed that the opportunity she had taken away from Donghu really had a great impact.
The first batch finished quickly, and the second batch came in, and it was another scene where everyone showed off their skills.
There was no change in the rankings at the top until the evening, when there were major changes in the top ten.
A casual cultivator named Sang Pan suddenly appeared and rushed to the first place in less than ten minutes, shocking everyone.
"Who is this? Why have I never heard of him?" Someone at the table was whispering, and Lu Zhaozhao was also very curious.
What was even more strange was that for some reason a piece of the mirror was missing from the process of this casual cultivator passing the level, so no one knew how he had done it.
In the overall ranking, Sang Pan ranked first, Bai Yuanshi ranked second, and Lu Zhaozhao ranked third.
The fourth place started to experience many changes in position. In the end, Liao Chou, who was originally below Lu Zhaozhao, ranked seventh, while Bai Yuanzhou, Yao Tong and other pre-match favorites were all outside the top ten.
It is worth mentioning that Nian Zhi was ranked after 100 and advanced with an extremely dangerous ranking.
Liaochou and Sangpan, she was very sure that these two people had never appeared in the book, but after she came here, there were so many characters that had never appeared in the book that she was no longer surprised.
The first day came to an end, and what awaited them was the even more brutal selection on the second day. Everyone tacitly avoided this topic and left to rest after the banquet.
