At this time, in addition to the more than one hundred disciples around Zizhu Peak, there were also some inner disciples who came to watch the battle. This selection of direct disciples can be said to have caused a sensation in the entire Tianyan Sect. All the elders and disciples in the Tianyan Sect who had time did not want to miss this event and wanted to see the style of these direct disciples.
Following an order from the elder presiding over the competition, two direct disciple candidates stepped onto the stage respectively.
These two disciples were both powerful warriors at the eighth level of Martial Emperor. In fact, all of the one hundred direct disciple candidates had reached the eighth level of Martial Emperor. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to pass through the layers of selection and become direct disciple candidates.
Although there is only one Martial Emperor at the eighth level among a million, the population of the entire Tianyan Continent is an astronomical figure. It is not difficult to select one hundred Martial Emperors at the eighth level from these people.
The two disciples bowed to each other at the same time on the stage, and then started fighting.
The duel between the two eighth-level Martial Emperor disciples was naturally extremely exciting. Every move and every style was extremely powerful, which made the disciples below dazzled. They were indeed worthy of being candidates for direct disciples and their strength was indeed much stronger than theirs.
In the end, after dozens of moves, one disciple was defeated directly, while the other disciple won easily.
Among the eighth-level Martial Emperors, there are differences in strength, and the gap is so huge that it is difficult to make up. A freak like Chen Lei may not appear in hundreds of thousands of years.
Next, two more disciples went up to the ring to compete with each other. After hundreds of moves, the winner was decided.
In this competition, the winner will enter the top 50, while the loser will be eliminated directly.
Although they are eliminated, they are still stronger than the inner disciples and will be accepted as disciples by the deputy peak masters, elders, etc. on the nine sacred peaks.
This competition is actually a chance for them to show themselves, and winning or losing is not too important. Of course, this means that the ranking after the eighteenth place is not important. The ranking in the top eighteen is still very important, enough to attract everyone to fight hard for it.
Soon, the battle card in Chen Lei's hand lit up, and it was his turn to play.
Chen Lei jumped onto the stage without hesitation, and a moment later, a warrior at the eighth level of Martial Emperor also flew onto the stage.
"Chen Lei, this is not the place you should be. I advise you to admit defeat."
The warrior glanced at Chen Lei and spoke lightly, with a hint of arrogance in his tone, and it was obvious that he did not take Chen Lei seriously at all.
Chen Lei glanced at the disciple and said, "Whether it is true or not, you have no say. Besides, it's your bad luck to meet me. You are doomed to lose."
The warrior sneered and said, "Really, Chen Lei, you are really arrogant enough. If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude."
After saying this, the warrior let out a long roar, and a martial spirit emitting a powerful aura emerged.
"It's actually the Silver Moon Centipede..."
The crowd watching gasped when they saw the warrior's martial spirit.
The martial spirit of this warrior is silver-white, with a row of golden moon patterns on his back. These moon patterns are actually his natural runes, from crescent moon to full moon, and from full moon to crescent moon, and so on.
