Two days later, the battle of the top 100 in the grand fighting ceremony officially began.
The top 100 competition is still conducted in groups. There are five groups in total, with twenty people in each group competing in pairs. The five winners advance to the next round of finals.
Seven, or to be more precise, six geniuses in the early stages of integration were scattered among five different groups. Only one group contained two masters in the early stage of integration.
Ning Yuejing's group also has a contestant who is in the early stages of integration.
However, even if they are assigned to the same group, it is basically impossible for two masters in the early stages of integration to meet in the top 100 battle.
After all, the Yongye Immortal Dynasty also has to ensure that the stronger ones advance to the next round of finals, or even the final top ten.
Only other people in the group are affected.
Because if there are two masters at the integration level in a group, then two of the original five promotion places have basically been taken up, and the others can only compete for the last three promotion places.
The intensity of competition is naturally much greater than that of other groups.
When the Top 100 Competition officially began, one hundred contestants were simultaneously teleported to various venues divided into the secret areas of the competition. Everyone's opponents are unknown to each other in advance. They are only teleported into the competition venue, and only after seeing the opponent do they know who their opponent is.
When Ning Yuejing saw her opponent appearing across from her, she couldn't help but froze for a moment, a little surprised.
"why you?"
Ning Yuejing said in surprise.
At this moment, the male cultivator opposite Ning Yuejing couldn't help but reveal a wry smile, and then shook his head helplessly, saying: "Fellow Daoist Ning, we meet again. I just didn't expect to meet here. What a surprise." It’s really…”
Ning Yuejing's first opponent in the battle was the Wu Zhong whom he met in the melee.
Ning Yuejing didn't pay much attention to the other contestants who were promoted to the top 100, so she didn't know that Wu Zhong had also been promoted to the top 100 before. She was a little surprised when she met him now.
"I didn't expect you to advance to the top 100." Ning Yuejing said.
Wu Zhong said: "Thanks to Fellow Daoist Ning for rescuing me in the secret realm that day. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to break through, let alone advance to the top 100."
Ning Yuejing said: "You're welcome. By the way, where are your two junior sisters? How are they?"
Ning Yuejing thought of Liu Jiajia and Zhu Xiaoran who were with Wu Zhong at that time.
Wu Zhong replied: "Thank you Daoist Ning for your concern. Junior Sister Liu and Junior Sister Zhu both failed in the previous group stage and failed to break into the top 100."
"oh."
Ning Yuejing nodded lightly, and then said: "Then let's get started!"
After saying that, Ning Yuejing took out the Qiu Shuang Sword and hung it in front of her.
When Wu Zhong saw this, he immediately smiled bitterly and said: "Friend Daoist Ning, I still know myself. Compared with Friend Ning, my strength is nothing at all, so I won't humiliate myself."
"I just didn't expect to meet you, Daoist Ning, in the first round of the Top 100 Battle. I originally thought that I had to work hard to win. But now it seems that there is no other way..."
Ning Yuejing was slightly startled, then said: "Are you... planning to admit defeat?"
Wu Zhong smiled and nodded lightly, but seemed quite calm, and said: "I have seen the strength of Fellow Daoist Ning, and I believe that I am far from your opponent, Fellow Daoist Ning, so what else can I do if I don't admit defeat? "
Ning Yuejing thought for a while and said politely: "Thank you for your permission."
Wu Zhong smiled. He knew that Ning Yuejing was giving him face and being polite, so he said: "Fellow Daoist Ning, I hope you can go further, preferably directly win the championship. In this case, I will take the initiative to admit defeat to you." It’s not so embarrassing, after all, I lost to the first place in the fighting ceremony, haha!”
After saying that, Wu Zhong couldn't help but smile again.
Ning Yuejing smiled slightly, then nodded and said, "I will definitely do my best."
After a slight pause, Ning Yuejing continued: "Besides, my goal in coming here to participate in this fighting event is to win the first place. For me, if I can't become the first, then coming here to participate in this fighting event will be a failure. "
Wu Zhong was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Maybe she didn’t expect that Ning Yuejing would come with such great confidence and goals. If she doesn’t win the championship, it means failure
Wu Zhong thought about it and couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart. Sure enough, this peerless genius is really different from ordinary people. For them, as long as they are not number one, it is a failure, unlike him who can break into the top 100. I already feel that I have achieved my goal. If I can win one game in the top 100 competition, I will have achieved my goal.
Perhaps, the difference in one's own requirements and goals is also one of the differences between oneself and these truly top geniuses.
Wu Zhong couldn't help but laugh at himself.
Immediately, he looked at Ning Yuejing and said, "Then I wish you, fellow Daoist Ning, that you will get what you want."
"Well, thank you." Ning Yuejing responded.
At this time, Wu Zhong said again: "Okay, Fellow Daoist Ning, then I will admit defeat and quit."
After saying that, Wu Zhong immediately took out the spiritual talisman on his body, activated the spiritual talisman, and exited the secret realm.
As Wu Zhong took the initiative to admit defeat, Ning Yuejing's ears immediately heard the voice of the Mahayana half-immortal of the Yongye Immortal Dynasty who was responsible for hosting this fighting event.
"The third group, No. 2 Ning Yue Jingsheng!"
Ning Yuejing's top 100 battle group is the third group, and her number in the group is number two. Number 1 is the real early stage contestant in the group.
After the Mahayana half-immortal announced the result, Ning Yuejing also exited the secret realm.
Ning Yuejing was happy and relaxed after winning a match without taking any action.
Next, not long after, Ning Yuejing's second battle finally arrived. This time her opponent was a female cultivator, whose cultivation was at the late stage of distraction and not weak.
However, after Ning Yuejing performed the Three Realms Fighting Technique, the opponent was obviously far from being a match.
The real energy and mana were completely crushed. Ning Yuejing didn't have much strength and easily defeated the opponent with just an Autumn Frost Sword.
As a result, Ning Yuejing has become one of the five winners in the top 100 group, and has successfully advanced to the next round of finals.
Just like Ning Yuejing, there were six other true masters in the early stages of fusion who advanced to the finals effortlessly. Their strength was indeed a level higher than the others.
As long as they don't meet each other, no matter who they meet, their strength in cultivation is enough to ensure that they can easily defeat their opponents and advance smoothly.
Although Ning Yuejing and the other six masters in the integration stage advanced easily, the competition for the remaining people was extremely fierce.
Those who can advance to the top 100 are not weak in strength. As long as they don't meet the seven people at the top level, no matter who they meet, they will be able to fight against each other.
Therefore, in other matches, except for a few people who had some special ways to press the bottom and win relatively easily, most of the matches seemed very anxious and inextricable. (To be continued.)
