Chapter 377 Qualifying
That night, the Crazy Sword Club held a banquet to celebrate Li Mu's safe return. This time, not only the members of the Crazy Sword Club attended, but also many organizations from other schools sent representatives. These people came one by one to congratulate them. Li Mu came back alive.
What Ouyang Peng did is now known to everyone, and the students of Wuhan University despised what he did. On the contrary, Li Mu returned alive from the corpse family and created another miracle. Now his popularity is only slightly inferior to that of the inner sect. King Nie, even the second-ranked Golden Lion King Zhan Wushuang, cannot compare.
This time many people believe that Li Mu can hit the number one spot on the True Dragon Ranking. Once Li Mu becomes number one on the True Dragon Ranking, he will be the number one person under the True Legend. Who dares to ignore it?
Everyone toasted overnight, but Li Mu felt clear in his heart. He knew very well that Ouyang Peng could only be regarded as an enemy now, and was no longer an enemy. His enemies were only among the true legends, and some of the top ten true legends. People are his enemies now, and Ouyang Peng is no longer qualified to be his enemy.
The qualifying match starts directly the next day. The qualifying match is a big melee. Everyone takes turns to fight. Basically everyone is likely to encounter it. However, because the previous games took too long, in the past, the real dragon battle every year, the queue One person has to play 20 or 30 games in the ranking game.
It would take hundreds of games for everyone to win, which is really a waste of time. Therefore, this year we have intensified the challenge and shortened the qualifying games. Everyone only plays five qualifying games. The opponent is randomly selected and points are collected before Fifteen enters the challenge, so a person has to fight almost one-fifth of his opponents. Basically, the weak ones will still be eliminated, and only the strong ones will stay. There will not be a situation where the strong ones are inferior to the weak ones.
This competition method will only have some impact on the final ranking, so the school encourages the contestants who finish in the top fifteen to play more challenge matches, and use the challenge match to determine the final ranking.
As soon as Li Mu appeared in the venue, the whole place was in an uproar, and thousands of people applauded again. Li Mu's current prestige was evident in the hearts of ordinary Wuhan University students, but this scene also made many people feel jealous and dissatisfied.
This year's True Dragon Battle adopts a new qualifying mode, so in order to show fairness, the computer automatically divides the opponents directly in the center of the venue. Each of the twenty or thirty students who advance to the qualifying round is assigned an opponent by the computer. The same two people only play one game, and the computer will soon complete the assignments, and then put them on the big screen for public announcement.
Li Mu was also assigned five opponents. He took a look and found no acquaintance among these five opponents. It seemed that revenge was impossible in the qualifying match and could only wait until the challenge match.
Others are also looking for their opponents. In addition to King Nie Ren, Chen Ba, Liu Rushuang and Li Mu, there are also many grandmasters from the Crazy Sword Club participating in this competition.
Unfortunately, in the first round of eliminations, Chen Xing and other grandmasters were basically eliminated. The Crazy Blade Club has a very strong overall strength. That’s because they have several top ten experts on the True Dragon Ranking, but apart from these top In terms of combat power, the others are just a little bit behind.
Chen Xing was eliminated early, and only another commander from the Crazy Blade Club made it into the top thirty.
"The battle list will now begin, please pay attention to all contestants!" The referee stood in the center of the gymnasium and quickly made some adjustments, and then everyone's battle list began to be arranged.
"There is no match for me in the morning, but there are two matches in the afternoon!" Li Mu glanced at the match schedule and didn't pay much attention to it. After all, as long as he didn't meet his own people from the Crazy Blade Club or Ouyang Peng, there was nothing to pay attention to.
"I didn't expect that the freshmen who entered Wuhan University last year would all be among the top 30 on the True Dragon List. They are really awesome!" Zuo Lie said with emotion as he stood next to Li Mu.
Zuo Lie is the only commander of the Crazy Blade Club who has made it into the top 30 on the True Dragon Ranking this year.
"Oh? Which ones are the freshmen?" Li Mu asked curiously. It had only been more than a day since he came out of the corpse family. He didn't know these freshmen yet. He only heard one who vowed to trample him under his feet, named Nangong Wushuang. name.
"Vice President, look, that Nangong Wushuang said last night that he came from the Magic City. He is arrogant and proud and claims to be the Young Rookie King. The other one is the Female Sword King He Xiu. The third one is known as the Invincible Killing Swordsman, Li Jian. one!"
"These three are all rising stars of Wuhan University and should not be underestimated. At the same time, there are several freshmen who have made it to the real dragon list. Wuhan University has not seen this for several years!"
Zuo Lie said.
"It looks pretty good!" Li Mu glanced at a few people and nodded.
"Vice President, it's my turn to compete, I'll go first!"
At this moment, Zuo Lie saw his name displayed on the huge electronic screen, and he immediately walked towards the center of the stadium.
Zuo Lie's opponent is another inner sect disciple who is not weak in strength. This year he wants to hit the top 20 in the True Dragon Ranking. For many inner sect masters, the true dragon battle is their chance to become famous. If they can win the True Dragon Ranking, If you become famous in battle, it will be very beneficial whether you go to Jiangcheng's military, start your own business and build a family, or join some big families and become a priest.
Grandmasters of Wuhan University have many opportunities, but most people want to establish their own family, or become a worshiper of a big family. Needless to say, the benefits of establishing a family of their own are not to mention. Although it is harder for you, it will be beneficial to future generations.
Not to mention becoming a worshiper of a big family, it is most beneficial to oneself. Just do things for the big family when there is something wrong. When there is nothing, you can get a steady supply of resources, and you can get resources to continue practicing without having to work hard.
Of course, joining the military is very promising, but it is also the most dangerous. Once you join the military, you become a screw in the entire system. If necessary, you must even form a death squad to fight the monsters to the death.
Under normal circumstances, the inner sect masters choose these three options the most, and some choose other paths. Some inner sect masters will choose to take risks after graduation to see what the outside world has become and to find their own. Relatives and friends, some will also enter major martial arts schools in Jiangcheng.
In Jiangcheng, in addition to Wuhan University, there are various martial arts junior high schools, martial arts high schools, and inferior martial arts universities. These schools are very welcoming to the inner sect masters of Wuhan University.
"Senior Zuo, please!" As soon as Zuo Lie entered the ring, the inner sect master opposite him bowed his hand and said.
"Please!" Zuo Lie nodded slightly and made a gesture of invitation.
"Let me say a few words before the game starts!" The referee raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "You are all students of Wuhan University and the future pillars of Jiangcheng. Although you don't care about life and death when you go to the ring, I still hope that you will not fight life and death. !”
"start!"
"Tianlong stick technique!" The inner sect master roared, and the cooked copper stick in his hand suddenly started to dance. As soon as the stick technique started to dance, a ferocious dragon shape was faintly revealed inside.
"Fire God Fist!"
Zuo Lie also roared angrily, blasting out hot air with one punch. He was practicing some kind of fire-attribute Qi Jin, and when the Qi Jin was running, fierce fire suddenly appeared.
However, there is no weak person who can enter the top thirty of the True Dragon Ranking. Both of them were using killing moves. They kept fighting for ten or twenty moves. Zuo Lie punched the inner sect master in the chest, and half of his body was injured. He burned up and fell down the ring with a scream. If he fell off the ring, he would lose.
"Group 1, Contestant No. 6, Zuo Lie wins!" The referee announced immediately, and then someone rushed over to treat the grandmaster. He took the elixir and simply bandaged it, and the grandmaster soon recovered.
"This year is the best chance to reach the top ten on the True Dragon Ranking. Everyone is working hard. As long as they can reach the top ten on the True Dragon Ranking, even if it is only for one year, it will be a glorious resume when they graduate!"
Zuo Lie jumped down from the ring and said that he knew that his strength was not good enough, and he didn't care so much about whether he could reach the top ten of the True Dragon Ranking, because he had already made plans to stay in the Crazy Sword Club after graduation. , as an external employee, working for the Crazy Sword Club, it doesn’t matter whether you are in the top ten of the True Dragon List.
"They would have to thank the Vice-President for having such a good opportunity this year. If the Vice-President hadn't killed Qi Hu, who was fourth on the True Dragon Ranking, Mo Shasheng, who was sixth on the True Dragon Ranking, and Luo Kun, who was seventh on the True Dragon Ranking. , leaving three spots vacant on the True Dragon List!"
"In addition, the president has entered the ranks of true disciples this year. When the vice-president kills Ouyang Peng, five will be missing from the top ten, leaving five positions vacant. Who doesn't want to fight for this once-in-a-lifetime position!"
Another member of the Crazy Knife Club who came to watch the game laughed.
"Yes, that's the truth. Vice president, look, the newcomer Wang Nangong Wushuang is on the stage!" At this moment, Zuo Lie suddenly said with his eyes lit up.
On the other side of the No. 3 ring, Nangong Wushuang walked directly onto the ring. He shook his neck, his whole body crackled, and his body seemed to have grown half a circle.
Nangong Wushuang's opponent was a grandmaster who barely entered the top 30 on the True Dragon Ranking. He looked at Nangong Wushuang, his face a little ugly. After thinking about it, he raised his hand and said, "Forget it, I will abstain from this match!"
Nangong Wushuang has also played in several arena matches in the past year or so. In the previous knockout matches, he was famous for leaving no room for his attacks. Although he has not killed anyone yet, he has already maimed and seriously injured anyone. There are several. This grandmaster is not sure of defeating Nangong Wushuang, so admitting defeat is the best choice.
"If you encounter a monster and you surrender, will it let you go?" Nangong Wushuang's eyes turned cold and he punched out mercilessly.
"boom!"
The grandmaster never expected that Nangong Wushuang would not let him go even after he surrendered. He was hit by a punch without warning. He immediately screamed and flew backwards from the ring. He spurted a few mouthfuls of blood before he even landed. When he came out, he was seriously injured.
"It's really useless to admit defeat in the face of a monster, but Nangong Wushuang is not a monster. Since his opponent has already admitted defeat, he shouldn't attack. It's a bit too much!"
Li Mu shook his head and said. Unexpectedly, Nangong Wushuang knocked his opponent away with one punch, and even looked at Li Mu provocatively before jumping off the ring.
Li Mu glanced at him and didn't respond. With such a character, he might never be able to make it in his lifetime.
There are too many talented people in this world, but how many of them have truly grown up? Don't leave room for the weak when you encounter them. If you are not an enemy, you will become an enemy. Just for a little fame and a little face, you will blindly provoke others and offend those you cannot afford to offend. Such people will only make their own path narrower and narrower. Such people How far can a person go even if he is a genius?
The whole morning's competition passed quickly. There were not too many inner disciples in Wuhan University, only a few hundred people. Many of them knew each other well. This was not a life-and-death fight. Many of them had room for discretion in their actions, so the competition started. It was almost over. If the enemy really entered the ring, it wouldn't be a matter of victory or defeat, but a matter of life and death.
In the afternoon, it was Li Mu's turn to fight soon. This was the first time Li Mu had to fight with someone since he came back from the corpse family, and everyone was immediately attracted to him.
"That's Senior Li, so handsome!"
"Senior Li is very powerful, extremely talented, and quite handsome. I wonder what kind of girlfriend he will look for in the future!"
Countless freshmen stared at Li Mu. Many freshmen even skipped class and rushed over just to see who Li Mu was. There were thousands more people in the gymnasium in the afternoon than in the morning, all coming to see Li Mu.
There were also some freshmen girls who looked at Li Mu with a look of infatuation, and many boys looked jealous.
"Fight or not?" Li Mu walked onto the ring, looked at the opponent in front of him and smiled.
The grandmaster opposite shook his head like a rattle. Who didn't know that before Li Mu was trapped in the corpse family's stronghold, he broke through Ouyang Peng and the others to join forces and kill three of the top ten experts in the True Dragon Ranking. The three-year-old Ouyang Peng fled back like a bereaved dog, howling like a ghost.
Li Mu's combat power was already so terrifying a year ago, let alone more than a year later. Among the strong men on the True Dragon List, except for the Golden Lion King Zhan Wushuang and Nangong Peng who are second on the True Dragon List, it is possible Who dares to fight with him?
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Li for returning safely from the corpse family. Even if Junior Brother gave me ten courages, I wouldn't dare to fight against Junior Brother!" The Grandmaster said with a wry smile, "I admit defeat!"
After the grandmaster finished speaking, he jumped cleanly off the ring without waiting for the referee to announce the result.
Li Mu gets one point directly, and a win counts as one point.
"The vice-president is really worthy of being a vice-president. He scared his opponents away just by showing his face. We have to fight to the death. It's not easy!" Zuo Lie said enviously.
"If you have Junior Brother Li's record, I guarantee that your opponent will behave like this when he encounters you!" Chen Ba appeared with Liu Rushuang, he glanced at Zuo Lie and said with a smile.
"Forget it. If I encounter the enemies that the vice president encountered, I'm afraid even nine lives won't be enough!" Zuo Lie said with a helpless sigh.
Like the shadow of a famous tree, Li Mu's current prestige is based on each battle. Without these battles, who would recognize him? This is something you can't envy.
"I guess no one would dare to fight against my junior brother in the qualifying match!" Liu Rushuang glanced at Li Mu's opponents, shook her head and said.
