The third round of assessment took the longest time among the first three rounds of assessment.
In the first round, everyone was gathering dragon energy and condensing the giant beast of luck as quickly as possible. In the second round, each question only had 60 breaths to answer, which was even shorter.
The third round of assessment is a battle between two assessors in the world of Mirror Flowers and Water Moon.
For some opponents with similar strength, the battle will last for a long time! The third round of assessment has no time limit until one of the two is killed in the world of Mirror Flowers and Water Moon.
Therefore, it took three days before the third round of assessment was declared over.
Among the seventy-four assessors, half were eliminated, which means that there were a total of thirty-seven people who entered the fourth round of assessment.
These thirty-seven people are still sorted according to their rankings!
The rankings of the first few people have not changed, they are still Yan Zizai, Qi Qianjun, Let Me Crazy, Feng Fengshan.
Among the people behind, those who were defeated by those behind had their rankings replaced - for example, the assessor who was originally ranked fifth was defeated by an assessor named "Liu Dunru" who was ranked 70th.
"This Liu Dunru is also a dark horse! He can actually use poetry to fight..."
Qi Ying recalled what she had seen of Liu Dunru fighting.
At that time, Liu Dunru's opponent was an outstanding disciple who had already become famous in the Holy Realm. He had one hundred and eight magical powers and was known as the "One Hundred and Eight Fighting Emperors". His rich fighting skills were enough to destroy any powerful person in an instant. A general ultimate quasi-emperor.
At Liu Xue's level, he might not be able to withstand three moves in front of him.
However, such a powerful Hundred and Eight Fighting Emperors faced Liu Dunru before they could use all their magical powers. Liu Dunru raised his pen and wrote a poem in the air. Suddenly, a mountain tens of thousands of feet fell from the sky, directly knocking Bai Ling down. Badouhuang was crushed into powder.
At that time, all the examiners who came out of the world of Mirror Flowers and Water Moon were shocked by this scene.
"In the cultivation system, there are some cultivation methods that directly lead to the great road!"
Qi Ying narrowed his eyes.
Ordinary practitioners, if they want to achieve enlightenment, must rely on chance, luck, and inheritance.
However, there are some cultivation methods, and as long as you study deeply enough, you can enter the Tao!
It is more common, such as martial arts cultivators who use martial arts to enter Taoism and understand a certain avenue in the world while studying martial arts. Although the proportion is extremely low, the total number of martial arts cultivators is here, so there are not many great emperors who use martial arts to enter Taoism; There is "Sword Dao". No matter what kind of practitioner you are, if you have a deep enough understanding of swords or other weapons, you will also have the opportunity to realize Tao. Among other things, there are poetry, music, painting, chess, etc.!
I am afraid that this Liu Dunru is following the path of entering Taoism through poetry and prose. This kind of cultivator usually does not show off his skills, and his cultivation level is ordinary and unremarkable. When it comes to real battles, the strength he unleashes will be Extremely terrible.
Similarly, there are the ways of music, chess, etc.
Practitioners who follow the path of poetry can startle the heaven and earth by writing a random article, causing visions to appear in heaven and earth; those who follow the path of painting can draw thousands of troops and horses roaring towards them; those who follow the path of harp and music can make a song. Breaking through thousands of armies; chess skills are rarer than others, but also the most varied. It is said to have a certain connection with "luck".
Qi Ying himself has a part of the chess inheritance, but Qi Ying has no idea how to use it.
"This Liu Dunru is undoubtedly the first in terms of strength!"
Qi Ying has a position in his mind for Liu Dunru, who is a strong potential opponent.
In addition to Liu Dunru, there are a few "dark horses" who defeated the strong with the weak, which shocked people a lot. In comparison, Qi Ying has no special features except that his cultivation level is too low, and he can barely defeat Liu Yan. Xue's strength is probably still at the bottom among the remaining thirty-seven people.
but.
Qi Ying's own strength was not fully displayed in the battle with Liu Xue.
What was just displayed was the terrifying physical attack power and the special soul body condensed from the soul.
What is even more terrifying in comparison is his terrifying defense power that can physically cut off treasures, and that ordinary attacks cannot even scratch the skin! This was something that none of the examiners noticed.
"If I am in the state of stimulating my bloodline, these people will not be able to hurt me at all unless they use Taoist weapons."
When he was still in the Nine Laws Brahma Combat Body, Qi Ying could withstand any attack from the Purple Level Asura Emperor and below. Now, Qi Ying already has the Thirty-six Laws Brahma Combat Body, although the Jinsha Demon Gang Body has not yet been There was enough time for a corresponding improvement, but it was enough to withstand extremely powerful attacks.
but.
Qiying also has obvious weaknesses.
That is insufficient attack power.
Qi Ying's attack power is sufficient when faced with someone like Liu Xiexue who is weak in melee combat and can only rely on treasures to resist attacks.
But when faced with someone who was also very powerful in close combat, Qi Ying's attack seemed too "blunt", with more than enough power but not enough lethality, just like the difference between using a hammer and a sword.
When ordinary people fight ordinary people, it is more efficient to pick up a hammer and swing it than a sword that requires skill.
But if you meet a master of internal martial arts, a hammer hitting them will not cause any harm at all. However, if a master of internal martial arts does not have special skills in external martial arts, he will also be afraid of the sharpness of the sword.
"The sword skills used by the Eternal Life Sword are only auxiliary at best. Even if it is the Exploding Star Sword, my level is not enough and the power is not strong enough. Moreover, the Exploding Star Sword with a single law can no longer keep up with the level of combat... Zuke War Halberd The power is great, but who will stand and wait for me to fight? There is also the 'Shadowless Knife', Tao weapons are prohibited in the third round of assessment, I don't know what will happen in the fourth and fifth rounds."
At this time.
The thirty-seven people eliminated, including Liu Xuexue, have been expelled from the field!
The rest were sorted in order, and Qi Ying was the thirty-seventh among them, which was the last one.
Elder Chengyao took the place of Elder Liubo, stood in front of all the assessors, and said loudly: "I am the host of your fourth round of assessment. I will formulate the rules of the fourth round of assessment."
Everyone listened with bated breath.
"Compared with several other elders, my assessment does not focus on luck, means, and personal strength, but more on your state of mind! No matter how lucky a cultivator is, no matter how strong his means, and his personal strength is outstanding, if his state of mind is too No matter how good you are, you will encounter a lot of troubles no matter what you do, and no matter how good your luck or opportunity is, you will never be able to grasp it."
"Practitioners with a good mental state can turn danger into opportunity and grief into motivation to continue practicing."
"So, in the fourth round of assessment, you need to enter Elder Liubo's world of mirror flowers and water moon again, but this time what you have to do is not to defeat other assessors, but to defeat yourself. If you want to compete with others Those who fight have a chance, as long as you pass the fourth round and enter the fifth round!"
