After a series of fermentation and high expectations, the first day of the quarterfinals finally began.
Since it is expected that the number of spectators will be very large, the square in front of the city lord's palace is no longer suitable. Therefore, the battle platform was set up in an empty field in the West City that was converted from Douwu Square. This site is vast and vast, with a diameter of only seven miles, and can accommodate more than 200,000 people. In order to allow the outside audience to see clearly, four huge floating screens were arranged in the sky to broadcast the battle situation in the ring live.
Early in the morning, the entire Chongmo City Street was crowded with people, rushing towards the square.
Ye Dong did not participate in the two games on the first day, and Li Moling, the legendary strongest player, also had no part. So the only thing that interested Niu Liu was Guo Ziyuan's match. This was the player led by his rival Liu Qi, so he looked forward to seeing the opponent return with a disastrous defeat.
It is very unfavorable for him. Guo Ziyuan's approximate strength is among the top eight, and his evaluation is still above Zhen Xiong, ranking third.
He and Wu Jiangshan also got up early and rushed to the scene.
Originally, he invited Ye Dong to go with him so that Ye Dong could know the strength of the opponent behind him in advance, but Ye Dong was not interested in this. He refuses to sharpen his sword before the competition and devotes little time to training.
Niu Liu and Wu Jiangshan tried to persuade them several times, but finally gave up. In their opinion, Ye Dong's chances of entering the next round are very high, so studying the opponent in advance is of little use. To say the least, even if he got in by chance and faced the next round of strong people, research would be useless. Strength determines everything, and he would definitely be defeated miserably.
After the two of them left, Ye Dong did not enter the cultivation state, but went to see Wei Tie.
Wei Tie, who was still unconscious, was lying quietly on the bed, but his signs of life were stable. Lu Xiao's elixir has miraculous effects.
"Why don't you go to watch the game? These players are your opponents behind you. You don't have the confidence to enter the end?"
Because the army selection competition has become the most lively topic, Lu Xiao went to watch the competition early in the morning, so he is the only one here now.
"Don't worry, Uncle Wei, I want to decide this championship! If Li Moling plays, I may go to the scene. I don't need to know the strength of these opponents."
Wei Xing sighed, since Ye Dong was confident, he was naturally happy. Others may regard Ye Dong's move as arrogance and underestimation of the enemy, but he knows better. Ye Dong is definitely not such a person. Otherwise, he would not have killed the two-star Ying Qianen and a group of strong men during the pulse formation stage, and would not have turned the tide and staged a great reversal when the horse thieves from the Castle of Silence had almost wiped out the entire Zhuo family. If there is only one person in the world who is steady and reassuring in his work, this person is undoubtedly Ye Dong.
With his guarantee, Wei De was completely relieved. However, he was also worried about Li Moling like Ye Dong, because Ye Dongyin revealed that he was not sure about Li Moling.
Of course this is normal. In everyone's eyes, Li Moling's victory is certain and no one can change it. This is not groundless speculation. It is a conclusion drawn after an outstanding battle, even if other players believe that they have a low winning rate against Li Moling. Ye Dong's concern shows that he is not arrogant in underestimating the enemy.
"Uncle Wei, have you sent the message back?"
"The favor of Shopkeeper Tolu has sent a message back to Baode Town. We are here, so don't worry. Tell Xiaoqin specifically that we will bring her a lively brother back." Wei Xing sighed greatly and said: " Ye Dong, it¡¯s a good thing you¡¯re here, otherwise I don¡¯t know what to do in this strange place other than running into walls and waiting to die!¡±
If it weren¡¯t for Ye Dong, Lu Xiao wouldn¡¯t know him at all, let alone the high-level elixir. Wei Tie could not be saved long ago. Why Lu Xiao was willing to pay this expensive favor was entirely for Ye Dong's sake.
"I treat Wei Tie like an elder brother. If you say that again, you will turn away. When we were in conflict with the Ying family that day, you sacrificed your life to help us. Who else can match this kind of kindness that blood is thicker than water?"
¡¡¡¡
Come out of the small courtyard and turn out two streets. Ye Dong immediately felt something was wrong.
"Sun Simiao!"
Sun Simiao's whereabouts can be hidden from others, but they can never be hidden from him. Because he has a "divine consciousness radar" that others cannot know, behind him, a hundred meters away. He could observe Sun Simiao lurking behind him.
Not only that, at the end of the street in front, Ye Dong also found a suspicious three-star strong man.
"Chasing and blocking the ground and encircling you?"
Sun Simiao declared in public that the whole city was hunting him down. He had stayed in the city lord's mansion for the past two days, and Sun Simiao had nowhere to attack. Nowadays, it is a rare opportunity for Ye Dong to go out.
Ye Dong blamed himself for being too careless. He thought that today was the first game of the top eight and Sun Sijiao would focus on the two games. At least he would think that he was negligent in going to watch the game. Unexpectedly, he still stared at himself tightly at this joint.
"You must escape before the encirclement, otherwise they will form an encirclement, let alone win the championship, justIt's not even possible to participate in the quarterfinals. "
He looked around and observed the environment. He was now on a straight street of 500 to 600 meters, with shops on both sides. Since many people went to watch the quarterfinals, there were not many people on the street. Even if there were people coming and going on the street, Ye Dong had no doubt that Sun Simiao, a heartless maniac, would kill him in public.
"Fortunately, the two of them don't know that I have a spiritual radar and can detect their whereabouts secretly."
At this time, the "Spirit Radar" showed that Sun Simiao behind him was accelerating, apparently entering his ambush location.
Ye Dong swished like a mouse into a narrow passage between the two walls next to him, heading in a cross-sectional direction. This narrow passage is a gap between two shops and can only be passed sideways by one person. On the other side of the narrow street is another street.
Sun Simiao lost Ye Dong's figure in the blink of an eye. Knowing something was wrong, he rushed to the place where Ye Dong disappeared like an arrow: "It's really weird. Where did this kid go?"
"He discovered himself? It shouldn't be possible. How is it possible with his two-star realm? Even if I am more than a hundred meters away, I can't find traces of others. As for the breath, he can't identify the people coming and going on the street. "
He let go of his spiritual consciousness to explore outside, but the people coming and going were in a hurry, and under the interference of the chaotic atmosphere, he could not find where Ye was hiding. At this time, the three-star strong man in front also arrived: "Doctor Sun, where is Ye Dong?"
"This kid is as smooth as a mouse, and he escaped!" Sun Simiao spit on the ground. Full of regrets.
After waiting for a few days, I learned from the informants that Ye Dong had come out of the city lord's mansion, but I didn't know that I still let Ye Dong escape!
"As long as he is still in Chongmo City, he can't escape."
"How did this kid find us? I have always kept a proper distance. With his level, it is impossible for him to find me."
The three-star strong man said in surprise: "You mean he is hiding his realm?"
"Impossible, the aura he emits cannot be hidden from others. What I mean is that he may have other means to detect our traces from a distance. Or he may also have an informant nearby, and the informant sends a coded signal to give him an early warning."
The two discussed it for a while, but in the end there was no result. Returned angrily.
Ye Dong safely returned to the city lord's mansion and breathed a sigh of relief. In terms of strength, he is not Sun Simiao's opponent, and he needs to participate in the competition to save Wei Tie, so he will not collide head-on with Sun Simiao.
Last time, he was reckless and ruined the chance to save Wei Tie. He couldn't do it again.
"The "Secret Secrets of the Embryo of Heaven and Earth" have been pondering in my mind for many days. There are no problems and there should be no danger. I am surrounded by enemies on all sides. It is time to practice it. I must get close to the three-star realm as quickly as possible, whether it is Sun Simiao. Or It¡¯s Li Moling, they are all their own powerful opponents, and if you want to play against them, you must significantly improve your strength to be worthy.¡±
His current strength is no problem to deal with the ordinary three-star realm, so he is not afraid of Li Mo Ling. But when drawing lots, he realized that Li Moling was different from ordinary people. Regardless of his special temperament or his keen perception, this person was definitely a strong opponent.
When Li Mo Ling approached them in front of the main hall. He clearly sensed that Li Moling was exerting an invisible deterrent when scanning the eight people. The intimidation of this kind of smile cannot be detected by ordinary martial arts cultivators as long as they are not careful and have certain methods. Because he did not give people a sense of uneasiness, but a very gentle encouragement, the other people looked at him and immediately subconsciously smiled and greeted him.
But Ye is keenly aware of this power. At first he didn't understand what kind of power it was and what reaction it should have. So when others smiled in response to Li Mo Ling's gaze, it was too late for him to react, so he had to pretend that nothing happened.
He doesn¡¯t want to expose his strength. So that others can look down upon themselves and then have more favorable opportunities. But when Li Moling saw his performance, he immediately noticed something fishy, ??which was why he finally came to say hello to Ye Dong.
No one else knew what Li Mo Ling meant, they only thought he valued Ye Dong. Ye Dong knew in his heart that he was telling himself: I discovered the secret of your hidden strength.
It is this powerful detective who knows that Ye Dong is facing a formidable enemy, and he completely takes the strongest opponent he will encounter seriously!
He must improve his strength again before the finals. Only in this way can we be more confident of victory against Li Moling.
The small courtyard was quiet and no one was around. Ye Dong drew his attention to the secret formula of "Heaven and Earth's Embryo" in his mind.
Although the mantra disappeared and the white spider web returned to its original state, his strong memory had already memorized the mantra in his mind. All he has to do is understand the mantra, guide the understanding of this mantra into his body, and sense and cultivate his body.
Cultivation methods are generally divided into three categories:?: The first is to cultivate the body; the second is to cultivate the relationship between the body and heaven and earth; the third is to cultivate the world.
The content of this formula corresponds to practicing **, improving the quality of the "Yuan Veins" and integrating it more closely with the body.
Ye Dong closed his eyes and recited the secret formula silently, deeply attracted by it, and then breathed out the formula according to the formula, and slowly introduced the "Yuanli Stream" of the Yuan Meridian into the major meridians.
To enter three stars, the "Yuanmai Stream" must reach the step of the "Yuanmai Great Wall", which means that the quality of the "Yuanmai River" must be improved to the point where it changes from a fluid to a condensed solid and becomes a support for the body's heaven and earth.
The time it took for Ye Dong to enter the Second Star was not long for others, but it was not short for him.
The self-cultivation function of the small world allows him to improve his realm without practicing. Coupled with the spiritual energy spreading into the second star, Ye Dong is not too far away from the third star. Getting close to Samsung is not Ye Dong's ultimate goal. His goal is to reach Samsung.
In other words, his goal is to condense the "Great Wall of Yuanmai" and produce qualitative changes in Yuanmai.
Ye Dong¡¯s thoughts guide the source of Yuanli, and changes occur rapidly within the body and the small world. The "Yuanmai Torrent" roared, and the turbid stream emitted some curls of milky white smoke, becoming more turbid at a speed visible to the naked eye.
