As the first few rounds of competition came to an end, the battle situation of the major players gradually became clear.
Each major chat group has also specially created a "battle record list" to rank the contestants based on their realm, magic weapons, competition duration, and performance in the arena.
Jun Shu's game results were quickly updated on the "Performance List". Relying on his outstanding "duration", he squeezed into the top 20 of the list and ranked 17th.
In front of him were the proud disciples of each major sect and the seeded players of this competition.
However, Jun Shu's game itself was really unremarkable, without even a famous scene to refer to, so there was only a ranking but little discussion about it.
The one that attracts the most attention at the moment is still Wanli Zheng. As a "hexagonal warrior" with no shortcomings in all aspects, he ranks first on the "performance list".
Li Ying was very angry about this. He held a jade tablet and cursed in the group chat: "Are these people blind? The director is so capable, but he is ranked so low. This is ridiculous!"
Zhu Changyang glanced at him, puzzled: "How did you get into the group of righteous people?"
As the guardian of Huijiao, Li Ying's jade certificate title should be banned by the righteous path.
"Oh, I got a new identity." Li Ying said proudly, "They heard that I was the junior brother of the Industrial Sect, so they let me join the group."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
The most advanced undercover agents often only require the most unpretentious skills.
"Principal, Director, don't worry." Li Ying rubbed his hands, looking loyal, "I will call on all the junior brothers and sisters to join the group to build momentum for the director. We will definitely push the ranking up and never let our Industrial Sect fall behind!"
Zhu Changyang was sweating profusely.
The competitive spirit of these demons is so strong that they even came up with the idea of ranking without any guidance.
Fortunately, Jun Shu remained calm in this regard, or rather, disdainful, and simply said, "No need, a summer insect cannot talk about ice."
Zhu Changyang breathed a sigh of relief, and then he heard Jun Shu continue, "Wait until Changyang finishes the competition. If I am not satisfied with the ranking, it will not be too late to argue with them."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
Ever since their relationship began to become close, Jun Shu's strange desire to compare with him gradually shifted to him.
And if Jun Shu wants to be satisfied with the ranking, it can only be first!
"No, no." Zhu Changyang quickly dissuaded him, and then patted Li Ying on the shoulder, "From now on, you are not allowed to play with the jade tablet for more than half an hour every day."
Li Ying: ?
Why is the principal always so strict with him!
.
Soon it was Zhu Changyang's turn.
Zhu Changyang had experience this time, so he told Li Ying to go and grab a front row seat with a good view in advance.
Jun Shu was very pleased: "You are so considerate to me."
Zhu Changyang smiled: "It should be."
If I’m not considerate enough, I’m afraid Jun Shu will be dissatisfied and want to go on stage to watch the game!
Zhu Changyang has made quite a splash in the Nine Regions in the past two years, and he ranked first in the preliminary round. He can be said to be the most watched contestant besides Wan Lizheng.
The audience was packed with people, and there were many familiar faces.
Old friends such as Shen Zha, Ming Rusu, Hua Qingdai and Nan Rongbo all arrived and stood by the stage. When they saw Zhu Changyang and Jun Shu enter, they all waved and greeted them.
Zhu Changyang was a little surprised: "Everyone is here?"
"I just happened to be free." Shen Zha said with a smile, "I came to support you."
Zhu Changyang was very touched: "That's thoughtful."
"Say this." Shen Zha said with a righteous look on his face, "We are good brothers!"
"In that case," Jun Shu glanced at him, took out a few black boards from the mustard bag and handed them over, "Then you can help take two."
Shen Zha:
Looking down, I saw that there were words strung together with light bulbs on the two boards. One said "Zhu Changyang" and the other said "Invincible".
Jun Shu then looked at the others and said politely, "Do you want it?"
A few people were silent for a moment, and then took a light board tactfully.
Jun Shu smiled, took out a large one and demonstrated, saying, "When Chang Yang comes on stage, hold up the sign like this."
Several people: “…Oh.”
Zhu Changyang was surprised: "Where did you get so many light signs?"
"Let Jie Li do it." Jun Shu looked proud, "This way it will be more conspicuous."
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized piece of silver with a rope attached and hung it around the developer's neck, "Look, Shangzai has one too."
The developer raised his head in cooperation: "Meow!"
Zhu Changyang was both angry and amused: "If you hadn't run into them, would you have planned to take so many signs by yourself?"
Wouldn't that require some acrobatic skills
"How could that be?" Jun Shu glanced at the person occupying the seat next to him, "Of course, let the robot guy take it."
Li Ying silently took out two light signs and held them up: "Don't worry, Principal, I can take many by myself."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
This villain is not easy to deal with. Let's go back and reduce his sentence by two days.
Studio:
[Fuck, this Broken Demon Lord is obviously the president of Zhu Changyang's fan club! ]
[The key is to force the righteous and evil paths to support together... ]
Nan Rongbo was holding the sign, still a little dazed for a moment, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He reminded: "Brothers, today's battle is not easy, please be careful."
Zhu Changyang smiled and said, "Yes."
His opponent was quite famous in the Nine Realms. Her name was Yu Su. She defeated many newcomers of the same age with a pair of immortality rings and was known as the Su-clothed Fairy.
Yu Su ranked fifty-third in the preliminary round. Although Zhu Changyang ranked much higher than her, it was generally believed that he had received help from the Goddess Hengbo, and his own strength was still in doubt.
Even several of his good friends were a little worried about him.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhu Changyang stepped onto the stage. A woman in white with silver rings on both hands also flew onto the stage. She smiled at him and said, "Master Zhu, I have long heard of your great name."
Zhu Changyang politely replied: "Same, same."
Yu Su was a man of heroic character. After completing the salute, he said nothing more. He simply pushed his right hand forward, and the silver ring on his wrist flew off, attacking Zhu Changyang.
This is her magic weapon, the Longevity Ring.
Everyone in the audience felt a shock in their hearts.
"Such a strong magic power, the Su Yi Fairy is indeed worthy of her reputation!"
"Look, Master Zhu is taking action, he is taking a weapon!"
Upon hearing this, everyone held their breath.
"I heard that the masters have refined many new and strange magic weapons that can injure people from a long distance. Maybe they can restrain the Longevity Ring."
"Yes, yes, yes, I heard about this and bought a ticket to come and see it!"
"That's right. I don't know how advanced the masters are. This weapon refining is absolutely amazing!"
Zhu Changyang's performance in the preliminary round was no secret. Many people knew that the "shotguns" and blasting tubes he made were quite effective in combat, and they expected him to use them in the ring match, so they were all looking forward to it.
Studio:
[It’s time for Chang Yang to pull out his gun! ]
[Nervous, I wonder what kind of gun he will pull out this time? ]
[Blind guess: a Gatling gun! I just don't know if this firepower is enough for the cultivation world? ]
[You can't use a bazooka on someone, right? That's a bit too much]
On the stage, Zhu Changyang felt the vibrating spiritual power, and immediately pinched his fingers, and a silver metal slightly longer than his palm flew out of his pocket.
Zhu Changyang grasped the metal and swung it in front of him as if swinging a sword. The surrounding aura condensed into an invisible shield wall, blocking the attack of the Longevity Ring.
There was a series of "lingling" sounds, and the silver light of the Longevity Ring shattered, and spiritual power overflowed.
Everyone saw Zhu Changyang's weapon clearly, but they were all confused.
"Am I seeing correctly? Are the masters holding a hilt?"
"What the hell? Didn't they say that the masters' magical instruments were very powerful? Is this all?"
What Zhu Changyang was holding in his hand was a hilt made of crystal and special metal. There were special runes painted on the hilt, which glowed in the sunlight, revealing extremely vigorous spiritual power.
However, there is no sword blade.
There was nothing above the hilt, so Zhu Changyang's posture of holding the hilt with both hands looked a bit funny.
The live broadcast room was also confused:
[Did Chang Yang take out the wrong thing? ]
[This isn't even a complete sword...]
[I see, this must be a gun disguised as a sword handle! ]
[You know how to disguise yourself! ]
It happened in the blink of an eye.
At the moment when the silver light was shattered, another longevity ring in Yu Su's left hand flew out at the same time, creating countless ring shadows in the air, forming a long rainbow that penetrated towards Zhu Changyang.
The hilt of the sword in Zhu Changyang's hand rotated again, and another invisible shield swung out.
But this time, the shield only smashed the first wave of ring shadows, and subsequent ring shadows followed closely, like endless waves, one overlapping another.
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
"What a great longevity combo!"
"This kind of magic is so amazing that even if I were to play at my peak, I would still have to stay away from it!"
"Your Excellency, this retreat will last forever, right?"
As he was speaking, changes occurred again on the stage.
Seeing the chain of attacks continuing, Zhu Changyang immediately changed his posture, raised his hands, and pointed the hilt of the sword towards the direction of the silver ring.
Yu Su kept staring at the hilt of the sword in Zhu Changyang's hand.
She was different from the audience and did not dare to underestimate anything Zhu Changyang brought out.
I've heard that Master Zhu is good at refining weapons. Some time ago, he forged a "gun" that can hurt people from a distance. Who knows, there may be other secrets behind this hilt.
At this moment, seeing Zhu Changyang pointing the hilt of the sword at him, his heart suddenly trembled.
It turned out to be a disguised gun!
This is going to be fired at her!
Fortunately, she had studied it before. The gun was so magical, but it was not difficult to dodge. She immediately focused her mind and energy, carefully distinguishing the direction of the bullet.
Then, she saw Zhu Changyang holding the empty hilt of the sword and slashing down fiercely.
Yu Su:
Isn't this still the posture of using a sword
The audience also complained:
"Master Zhu, are you stupid? Why are you still chopping?"
"Did he forget that he only has a hilt and no blade..."
Before he finished speaking, a strong green light suddenly burst out on the stage.
A green beam of light about three feet long suddenly shot out from Zhu Changyang's hilt.
The beam of light was about an inch wide and four feet long, just like a sword blade. As Zhu Changyang moved, a sharp sword intent burst out, instantly shattering all the attacking shadows.
Everyone:
Studio:
[Damn! It’s a lightsaber!]
[Has our technology finally failed to satisfy Zhu Changyang? ]
The author has something to say:
Chang Yang: I have my own ideas.
Robot: The principal is invincible (the light sign flashes)
