Xi Qiushui shook the green steel sword in his hand suddenly, and the priceless jade pendant on the fringe of the sword hit the hilt with a tinkling sound.
Seeing Xia Yan's martial arts practice, he was taken aback for a moment, and then became even more proud.
The disciples of the Xi family who were beside Xi Qiushui also had secret joy on their faces.
"Brother Qiushui, I think this Xia Yan is nothing more than that. Look at the martial arts he used just now, not only compared to Brother Qiushui's martial arts, but also compared to the martial arts I practiced." A Xi family child has a sly eyebrow, haha Take a breath.
"Speaking of it... the martial arts used by Xia Yan in Fangshi, North District last time seems to be much stronger than what he practiced today." Xi Qiushui frowned when he heard the words of the Xi family's children beside him.
"In my opinion, this Xia Yan probably practiced a new martial skill, but he hasn't mastered it yet, and he also abandoned the previous martial skill. Hehe! He deserves it!" The Xi family boy's eyes flashed, and he grinned and sneered.
"Haha, I think it's very possible!" Xi Qiushui looked at the surrounding high platforms, with a gloomy glint in his eyes.
After cultivating one martial skill, if a practitioner suddenly learns another martial skill, it is very likely that the strength of the original martial skill will be reduced due to lack of ability.
What Xi Qiushui and the others guessed at this time was exactly this situation.
After all, on such an important occasion today, Xi Qiushui felt that it was impossible for Xia Yan to hide his secrets. In case of being eliminated, the gain outweighs the loss!
What Xi Qiushui didn't know was that even if Xia Yan practiced a martial skill casually, he couldn't see the brilliance of it.
"I hope he won't be eliminated right now. Hmph, in the third round, I still want to defeat him with my own hands." Xi Qiushui snorted coldly and turned his gaze to Xia Yan.
Seeing Wang Yuyan and Xia Zixin gathered around Xia Yan, he couldn't help feeling jealous. The humiliation he suffered in the market a month ago made him grit his teeth, eager to get back his position.
After an incense stick of time, Liu Fang quickly walked back from the surrounding high platforms, and changed another list in his hand.
Walking to the center of the field, Liu Fang exhaled a sigh of relief, her eyes flickered, and she suddenly raised her voice. At this time, the surroundings of the square were extremely noisy, and the list of the five eliminated was about to be announced, so he had to suppress the surrounding voices.
Most of the fifteen contestants had violent expression fluctuations at this time. The list of eliminated contestants will be announced soon, and everyone doesn't know if they will be included in this list! Even Xia Zixin and Wang Yuyan had solemn faces.
"In this competition, the five contestants who cannot enter the third stage are Wang Yu, Xia Ming, Xi Liuhai, Wang Kexin, and Xi Mianzhu!"
After the list was announced, there were naturally heated discussions.
The five people who were eliminated all looked sad. For this competition, they will stop here.
"How is it possible? The Xia family, there are actually four people entering the third stage?!" Xi Qiushui's eyes suddenly protruded, and he said loudly.
"Damn it, four members of the Xia family have entered the third stage this time!"
"I... I... was eliminated!"
Several children of the Xi family had different expressions.
Xia Yan glanced at Xia Ming, Xia Ming didn't look too disappointed, Xia Yan couldn't help but nodded.
"Xia Ming, next time you compete, you will definitely go further. You are only twelve years old and you still have a chance." Xia Yan patted Xia Ming on the shoulder and said to Xia Ming. Xia Ming is also a head shorter than Xia Yan. Childish little round face.
In fact, Xia Ming wasn't too disappointed, he had expected it before the competition started. Among the fifteen contestants, he was the youngest, and his strength also ranked behind. Even if he enters the third stage, he has no way to get a place.
Hearing Xia Yan's words, Xia Ming nodded heavily, and said with firm eyes, "Thank you Brother Xia Yan, I know what to do."
Xia Yan was overjoyed, nodded, glanced at Xia Zixin, and said with a smile: "How? I said I won't be eliminated?!"
Xia Zixin pursed her lips and smiled, "You have mastered one hundred and eight martial arts meridians, those deacons will not easily eliminate you."
Hearing what Xia Zixin said, Xia Yan didn't explain, but just smiled.
Wang Yuyan smiled coquettishly beside her and said, "Congratulations!"
Xia Yan took advantage of the situation and asked back: "Why are you congratulating me?!"
Wang Yuyan's eyes brightened, "The Xia family has only been eliminated by one person, isn't that worthy of congratulations?!"
"Hehe, you're right, congratulations!" Xia Yan said with a smile, his expression unchanged.
"In the last part of the competition, the contestants draw lots to compare martial arts with each other. This part will be held on time one hour after noon." Liu Fang said again.
Now that the sun has almost risen above everyone's heads, the third session will officially start in the afternoon. If ten contestants compete with each other in martial arts, it means that each person will have to fight nine battles.
This link will last for two and a half days.
In the end, the five people with the most victories will naturally be qualified for the Ziye College entrance examination.
"Xia Yan, why don't you go to have lunch together?!" Wang Yuyan raised her eyebrows slightly, her lips were red, she turned around and invited Xia Yan again.
Xia Yan looked at Xia Zixin and the other Xia family children.
This central square is very close to Jufu Tower, and when you leave the square, you can see Jufu Tower as soon as you see it.
If they don't go back to the family and eat directly in Jufulou, then everyone can take a good rest and recharge their batteries to prepare for the real contest in the afternoon.
"Miss Zixin, I'm coming with you too." Seeing Xia Yan's eyes looking at the Xia family's children, Wang Yuyan knew what Xia Yan was thinking, so she said hastily.
In fact, Xia Yan was the only person she wanted to invite.
In Wang Yuyan's mind, there was still a lot that she didn't understand about Xia Yan, or she was confused and couldn't figure it out. Just like the martial arts exercise just now, Xia Yan's martial arts seemed very ordinary, even a bit awkward. However, Xia Yan didn't seem to have any dissatisfaction with his martial arts.
On the contrary, he has a confident face all the time!
In other words, from the very beginning, Xia Yan was certain that he would not fail in the competition. Perhaps, even at the last stage, Xia Yan won't have any major changes in his heart. All of this seemed to have nothing to do with him.
Wang Yuyan's thoughts are much more careful than Xia Zixin's. She can think of many things, and think more deeply.
"Zixin, what do you think?!" Xia Yan twitched his eyebrows and asked Xia Zixin.
Xia Zixin is the daughter of the head of the Xia family. She has never been to the Wang family's Jufulou since she grew up. Because the competition between the two businesses is very fierce, basically, people from the Xia family will not go to the Wang family's shop for consumption. Similarly, members of the Wang family will not go to Xia's shop for consumption.
Of course, Xia Zixin had heard of Jufulou and knew that it was the most expensive restaurant in Yushui City.
In fact, it is absolutely not true to say that she does not want to visit the most luxurious restaurant in the rumors.
"It's just that I don't know about father and the others..." Xia Zixin frowned, still worried that Xia Feilong and the elders would not allow it.
Xia Yan waved his hands, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll go and talk to the patriarch."
It's just a meal, and the patriarch and the great elder will certainly not stop them. At most, they will send a team of guards to protect everyone.
Xia Liu and the three of them also showed joy on their faces, and none of them had eaten at the rumored most luxurious restaurant.
Xia Ming hesitated for a while, his face was red, he looked at Xia Yan nervously and said: "I... I..."
He wanted to ask if he, a person who had been eliminated, was qualified to eat.
Xia Yan laughed and said, "Of course the five of us will go together!"
