Chapter 553: Thug
The second round of the compet.i.tion had yet to begin.
On the side of the ten thousand towers world, the rank-9 wearing a high crown suddenly opened his mouth and said,""Vice commander li, the youth tournament"s objective is still to enter the divine territory. Once we enter, we"ll still be allies.
Now that we"ve killed too many people, should we make some adjustments?"
On the side of G.o.ds "paradise, the old man with the sun halo on his head also frowned slightly,""In the past, almost no one died in the realm of essence-blood fusion, and everyone was allowed to enter. This was also to ensure that human martial artists could withstand the divine realm"s martial artists to the greatest extent.
I"ve killed too many people ..."
The old man looked around and glanced at Fang ping. He continued,"In the past, there were middle and upper-stage martial artists who stayed behind, but there were very few. Most of them were peak rank-6 and mentality-vitality fusion.
It"ll be dangerous if we keep fighting like this. "
In the past few years, everyone had also killed, but they had not killed so ruthlessly. Even the mentality-vitality fusion was killed.
The relations.h.i.+p between the human countries was very complicated. They cooperated and killed each other to weaken each other"s strength.
But this year, in the ten thousand towers world, other than Carmon and tu he who had just feigned death, there was not a single peak rank-6!
"This time, among the partic.i.p.ants, there are two grandmasters, seven who have achieved mentality-vitality fusion, and 24 peak rank-6s.
"At this moment, there are 6 people who have achieved mentality-vitality fusion, and 16 peak rank-6s.
The number of peak-stage martial artists who died was more than the number of upper-stage martial artists.
As the two of them spoke, the old monk from the ancient Buddha sacred land also said slowly,""The killing was too heavy. It exceeded my expectations."
Just like a military exercise, there would always be some death indicators.
However, the number of deaths was also controlled within a certain range.
According to the past, it would not exceed 20%. In other words, if the number of deaths exceeded 14, it would have already exceeded everyone"s expectations.
Now, 16 people had died.
This was only the first round!
Now, the youth representatives were all furious.
If this went on, China might be the strongest, but they still had 15 people. If they could not kill Fang ping and the others, they would not care about their status as the descendants of paragons anymore. Half of the people from Star Town City would probably die.
Just as li deyong was pondering, Minister w.a.n.g set up a barrier on the Hua side and whispered,""Fang ping, you can"t continue killing! If we continue, we"ll become the target of everyone.
"If we provoke the five parties into joining forces, two rank-7s and five mentality-vitality fusion will kill more than half of our people ..."
When that time came, w.a.n.g Jinyang and the others would be in deep trouble.
If one mentality-vitality fusion couldn"t kill you, then the second one would continue to challenge you. No matter how fast one"s recovery speed was, it would be limited.
There was still hope if he managed to resist one of them, but if he fought two of them in succession, he would definitely die.
As for feigning death and admitting defeat, not many martial artists would do that at this point.
Most of the time, death was a small matter. The honor and disgrace of the country and individuals were more important.
Fang ping glanced at the crowd. Du Hong said in a low voice, "We"ve already intimidated all four sides, so it"s not appropriate for us to be ruthless now. If we don"t act ruthlessly now, they"ll have internal strife. This way, we can guarantee to the greatest extent that we can get more slots.
Fang ping ... The quota was the most important.
"One spot practically represents the birth of one Grandmaster. No matter how many rank-6s you kill, it"s not as important as one more Grandmaster."
The youth tournament was not purely for the sake of fighting.
When you had the strength to deter all sides, you didn"t need to kill even more coldly. That would cause all sides to really join forces to attack you.
Previously, there were still challenges between the various parties, but this round, if the Chinese were to kill again, they would probably take turns to fight the Chinese.
Hearing that, Fang ping thought for a moment and said,"I don"t have the intention to kill. I never wanted to kill anyone from the start." But Carmon and the others ..."
"This is the usual practice, and also the first person I"ve killed from G.o.ds" paradise ..."
Although the death of his comrade made Du Hong sad, he was still rational.
Killing a few people was the norm in every compet.i.tion. He was the first to kill the people of G.o.ds "paradise to establish his might.
By the same logic, the powerhouses from other countries also killed people to establish their status and prove their strength.
After saying that, Du Hong continued in a low voice,"if you really want to vent your anger ... We"ll talk after we enter the restricted area!" It"ll be chaotic inside, and no one will care if you die in the restricted area. However, in the youth tournament, too many people will be killed, especially those at the peak ... They might have to bear some consequences. "
Fang ping understood. His eyes narrowed, and he nodded."I understand."
After he finished speaking, li deyong and a few rank-9s discussed in low voices for a moment and said,""In the second round, representatives of the various countries are allowed to admit defeat on behalf of the partic.i.p.ants!"
Many people heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this.
There weren"t many martial artists who could really shout to make them admit defeat.
However, it was still possible for the elders in his family to admit defeat on his behalf.
"Just like the martial arts university exchange compet.i.tion, not many partic.i.p.ants admit defeat. It"s always the grandmasters from each school who speak up.
This way, the casualty rate would be greatly reduced.
Each country had a rank-9 in charge, and their eyes were extremely sharp. They could easily sense whether the other party could kill their own people in one blow, and they admitted defeat in time.
……
Fang ping pursed his lips. The so-called rules of the Paragon could not be changed.
However, when it came to the problem of a large number of deaths and injuries, it was still not easy to change it.
These people just needed to be killed.
After killing too many, they naturally wouldn"t dare to treat it as a game anymore.
He was really not too afraid. Even if he were to encounter those two rank-7 powerhouses, he was not too worried. When one had just entered rank-7, the strength of their mentality would be limited. Celestiality was also limited.
It was impossible to kill him instantly.
If he could not kill him in one move, Fang ping might not be able to exhaust him to death. However, in the end, whether he won or lost would still be up to him.
Even grandmasters ... Might not dare to waste time with him.
No one was familiar with such young grandmasters. They were obviously the kind that had just broken through. Fang ping also sensed them, but there was no middle-stage rank-7.
The rules changed, and Du Hong said again,"this round, we will eliminate the people from G.o.ds" paradise and totem city. " "The remaining two families have grandmasters. The Andris mountain is the weakest and has full members. The other families will not let them go. Let them fight each other!"
As for the world of ten thousand towers, there were not many people left.
Carmon didn"t want China to continue to target them, so it was best to keep an eye on the other families.
Fang ping nodded slightly. Du Hong stood up and said,"I challenge you!"
As he spoke, he pointed at an upper-stage rank-6 martial artist from totem city.
The man"s expression changed slightly. He thought that the mentality-vitality fusion from China was going to attack him. He could not help but look at his own rank-9.
The ninth-grade of totem city was a tall and strong man covered in tattoos.
He looked extremely fierce!
Seeing this, he glanced at Du Hong and said,""I admit defeat!"
He did not even have the intention to send anyone up. When upper-stage rank-6s went up against mentality-vitality fusion, they were almost all killed in three moves.
Du Hong won directly, and then it was rosethe"s turn.
Ross stared at the Chinese side for a long time, but in the end, his expression turned ugly and he chose a black-robed martial artist from the andis mountain.
……
Seeing this, Fang ping lost interest in watching the battle. He looked at Minister w.a.n.g and asked,"Minister, now that I"ve almost secured a spot, shouldn"t you tell me about the restricted area?
I still don"t know anything, I don"t know what to do. "
Minister w.a.n.g shook his head."Don"t ask. I"m not too sure myself. When the quota is confirmed, there will be someone to answer your questions."
"Wait until the compet.i.tion is over, we will inform everyone. President Fang, you don"t have to be so anxious." Su Haoran said.
As he said that, su Haoran seemed to hesitate, but he still said,"After we enter the penalty area, I hope President Fang can take care of Li Fei and the others ..."
Su Haoran added,"what happened to the Yang family didn"t represent the att.i.tude of Star Town City. Li Fei and the others have dealt with President Fang several times. President Fang knows what kind of people they are."
The second-generation heirs in Star Town City were not bad people.
Even when they later found out that Fang ping had stolen five divine weapons from them, these people did not say anything.
Because of their family and the strength of their old ancestor, these people were naturally proud. However, their hearts were relatively pure.
Whether it was love or hate, one could almost tell from the surface.
On the other hand, the martial artists from the outside world had more experience. Each of them was a sly old fox. At rank-6, almost no one was a simple fool.
If you really treated someone as honest as Tang Feng, you wouldn"t even know how you died.
Fang ping did not make any promises. He only smiled and said,"Grandmaster su, you"re too kind. I don"t know anything yet ..."
Su Haoran didn"t say anything else. It didn"t matter if Fang ping didn"t take care of the others. The key was that this guy didn"t enter the restricted area and set them up.
……
In the second round, because the representatives of each family could admit defeat on behalf of the contestants, the speed of the battle was even faster, and the casualty rate was indeed greatly reduced.
"Unless it"s an evenly matched opponent. When both sides are in a heated battle, sometimes when the battle is really at its climax, life and death can be decided quickly among martial artists. Life and death are decided in an instant. Sometimes, a rank-9 May not be able to determine the winner in that instant.
In this way, by the time the second round was over and all the peak rank-6 challenges had ended, only one person had died.
The two rank-7 Grandmasters were still as silent as statues without a challenge. No one knew what they were thinking.
At this time, li deyong walked over and said softly,""Don"t use up all your challenge chances. After the three chances are over, those two might challenge you.
Du Hong, you have to leave at least one challenge chance and don"t challenge again in the next round!
It"s the same for the others. Unless someone is confirmed to be eliminated and there are enough people, they must ensure that they get a spot. "
As soon as he said this, Fang ping suddenly came to a realization!
Yes, he had almost forgotten about this.
If he really used up all three chances and was challenged by someone else, he would lose the chance.
Fang Ping"s three chances of being challenged had been used up, but this guy had arrogantly announced that he would accept a Grandmaster"s challenge even if the chance had been used up.
Once he used up all three chances to challenge someone and lost again, he would lose his spot.
Although the rules of the compet.i.tion were simple, they contained many things.
Some of the strategic plans even included the question of patience for martial artists.
If you couldn"t make it to the end and couldn"t help but want to take advantage of the situation, you might end up being taken advantage of by others.
Very soon, it was Jiang Chao"s turn to fight.
This fellow had never experienced a single battle.
No one challenged him, and he had no chance to challenge anyone before.
Now, it was his turn. Jiang Chao looked at the middle-stage rank-6 martial artists for a long time. Finally, he looked at su Zisu and said softly,"Zisu, why don"t we have a friendly match? we"ll just fight casually. Can you admit defeat?"
Su Zisu was about to explode!
d.a.m.n fatty is so shameless!
How could you say such words?
Jiang Chao didn"t care about this and said in a low voice,""The other middle-stage rank-6s are all outsiders. If they have some killer move that can kill me in one move, Where can I go to reason? Don"t you think this makes sense?
Zisu, let"s fight, or we can play rock-paper-scissors ..."
Su Haoran"s face turned dark as he coldly said,"Jiang Chao!"
Jiang Chao pouted. He suddenly looked at li Yiming, who was sitting in the front row, and said with a smile,""Brother Yiming, can I borrow your peerless inner armor to protect myself?"
Li Yiming looked at him unhappily, but after thinking about it, he still took off his leather armor and threw it to him. He said angrily,""You"re not allowed to lose it!"
"Of course!"
Jiang Chao"s face was full of smiles. He looked at Fang ping again and chuckled."Fang ping, can you lend me Rosses "door sword?"
Fang ping frowned,"you"re using this?" It"s a divine weapon, if it"s lost ..."
"I"ll compensate you if you lose it!"
Fang ping swept him a glance, feeling a little helpless, but he still nodded.
After that, pudgy Jiang went around to borrow things.
A moment later, Jiang Chao was fully armed!
He was wearing the apex-level inner armor, accessories that could restrict spiritual power, a huge door-sized sword, and a full-body armor that he had brought with him before, including a helmet.
Everyone was looking at him, but Jiang Chao was still unfl.u.s.tered. He put on the broken armor that Fang ping had killed the mentality-vitality fusion earlier.
Only at this time did Jiang Chao go on stage.
After going up the stage, he wasn"t in a hurry to choose his opponent. Instead, he stabbed the huge door-sized sword into the ground, only to find that he couldn"t stab it in no matter what, which made Jiang Chao a little distressed.
He didn"t have the ability to stab the sword into the solidified peak stage.
Fang ping looked at it for a while. The corner of his mouth moved slightly, and he said in a low voice,"He ... Is he planning to use the sword as a door? To block people?"
"Probably ... So?"
w.a.n.g Jinyang was powerless and did not want to say anymore.
This guy, was there a need to do this?
Jiang Chao dawdled for a while, and when li deyong was getting a little impatient, he suddenly pointed at a person in G.o.ds "paradise and said loudly,""You, come up!"
Su Zisu couldn"t help but curse in a low voice,""Shameless! "He prepared for half a day. I thought he would at least challenge someone of the same rank ... In the end, he actually challenged an injured middle-stage rank-6!"
There were only 5 middle-stage rank-6s from each country. These 5 people had fought before. Among them, the one from G.o.ds "paradise had fought twice and was slightly injured.
In the end, Jiang Chao, an upper-stage rank-6, had done his best in defense. After going up and picking, he chose this one.
"I should have guessed it!"
Fang ping shook his head helplessly. This fatty did not look like a martial artist at all. He did not even know how he had cultivated to upper-stage rank-6. There was no justice in this.
As for the other Paragon descendants, even if they were afraid of death, they would not show it too obviously.
As for the one who had pretended to be dead in the world of ten thousand towers, he had also felt that there was a gap in strength.
Jiang Chao was a small level higher than the other party, yet he was still so afraid of death.
Li deyong"s face was a little black, and the one from G.o.ds "paradise was also confused. This Fatty"s actions made him think that he had achieved mentality-vitality fusion!
Otherwise, would he need to do this?
Even though he was speechless, he still had to fight.
When this person got on the stage ... Everyone saw an exciting battle.
Jiang Chao didn"t even bother to fight with the other party. He ran from the beginning to the end, only turning around to hit him with his giant sword when he had time.
He was fighting with the intention of exhausting his opponent!
In any case, it was impossible for the other party to kill him in one move, and it would be difficult to even break through his defense.
He was also a small stage higher than his opponent, and his vitality was stronger. If he dragged it out until the end, he would run out of vitality and fight with his physical body ... His opponent would not be able to break through the layers of armor.
Fang ping dozed off as he watched this battle.
The people from the other sides began to chat and almost forgot that there were two people on the stage.
Fang ping even had the intention to take out his poker cards and play with old w.a.n.g and the others.
Fang ping was dozing off, but w.a.n.g Jinyang said in a low voice,"This fatty ... Do you think he"s pretending to be a pig to eat a Tiger?"
"Him?"
Fang ping raised his brows slightly."It"s hard to say. However, the degree of shamelessness still has the demeanor of a powerhouse. Powerhouses ... The stronger they are, the more shameless they are!"
At the side, Minister w.a.n.g and the others "expressions changed!
What nonsense are you spouting!
Can we be as shameless as this fatty?
An upper-stage rank-6 fighting a middle-stage rank-6 could also be fought like this?
The female princ.i.p.al of the first military school glanced at su Haoran"s ugly face and teased,"Powerful indeed! He"s a good seedling for winning with the smallest price. "
Su Haoran snorted.
A good seedling ... A good seedling is given to you, do you want it?
The two of them fought for more than an hour, and the sun was about to set, but Jiang Chao finally won!
He had won. He had dragged his opponent down. He had forcefully dragged a middle-stage rank-6 martial artist until he was gasping for breath. He really did not want to fight anymore, so he took the initiative to admit defeat.
This was the first contestant in the entire arena to take the initiative to shout out "surrender."
He stopped fighting!
No, he didn"t run anymore. He really couldn"t run anymore, and he couldn"t chase after him. That d.a.m.n fatty was running with great energy. He was too tired from chasing, and he still had to guard against people hitting him with big swords. He really couldn"t take it anymore.
At this point, almost no one wanted the two to continue.
As soon as he admitted defeat, li deyong immediately accepted it and quickly said,""Next!"
Jiang Chao, on the other hand, walked back valiantly and spiritedly, sweating profusely as he said,""It wasn"t easy to win. I should be able to get a spot now, right?"
Everyone was speechless when they heard this.
No one spoke!
The challenges of the upper-stage martial artists gradually came to an end.
At this moment, there was a slight commotion in the crowd.
The middle-stage rank-6 had begun!
And the right to challenge was once again Fang ping "s.
Who would this person challenge this time?
Fang ping glanced at Carmon, then at Rosses and the others. After a while, he laughed and said,"I want to keep my third chance, so the second challenge might be my last one!"
Carmon"s face changed slightly when he heard this.
Fang ping had his eyes on him since a long time ago.
Just as Carmon thought Fang ping was going to challenge him, Fang ping suddenly looked at the long-haired bu tuo ye and said,""Fake monk, how about we have a match?"
Many people were surprised to hear this.
Du Hong and the others also looked at Fang ping. They had previously agreed to deal with G.o.ds "paradise and totem city in this round.
Fang ping said in a low voice,"the ancient Buddha sacred land is too strong. There"s also a Grandmaster. We have to weaken their strength. The andis mountain is not that scary."
The ancient Buddha sacred land was silent. The number of people left was second only to China. They had the most people and the least losses.
As for the people of the andis mountains, after the previous challenges, there were already people who had been seriously injured. There would not be many who would make it.
Hearing what he said, everyone also realized that the ancient Buddha sacred land seemed to be too strong.
These monks were silent, and there were still nine of them who were unscathed.
Among them, one was a Grandmaster, three were at the peak stage of mentality-vitality fusion.
Bu tuo ye glanced at Fang ping, stood up, and said,"Since general Fang is interested, then bu tuo ye will have a taste of it ..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his entire body shone with golden light, as if a true Buddha had appeared in the world.
Fang ping, however, did not mind this. He smiled and said,"Monk, you"re not bringing your staff with you?"
"An external object."
Fang ping squinted his eyes and smiled."It"s a divine weapon, after all. Although it can"t be used to its full potential, if I don"t bring a weapon, wouldn"t it seem like I"m bullying you, monk? I think it"s better to bring one."
"No need,"
"Monk, do you really want to fight me to the death?"
Fang Ping"s expression suddenly turned ugly!
As soon as he said this, many people"s eyes turned strange!
He didn"t have any weapons, but you said he wanted to fight you to the death. What kind of logic was that?
Alright, everyone understood what he meant.
If you don"t bring your weapon, there"s no benefit to fight for. Fang ping is going to kill you.
If you bring a weapon, maybe you won"t be killed after you s.n.a.t.c.h it.
Bu tuo ye"s expression also changed. After a while, he said,""General Fang, please!"
He didn"t want to talk nonsense with this guy. Did this guy really think that he had him in the bag?
As for not bringing the staff, he was indeed a little worried that it would be s.n.a.t.c.hed away. He had seen it with his own eyes when rosethe"s greatsword was s.n.a.t.c.hed away.
Even if he could not defeat Fang ping now, he could still admit defeat.
Even if he was slightly injured, it was still better than losing his divine weapon.
Seeing that this guy was not convinced, Fang ping was extremely annoyed. Of the five divine weapons, he had only taken two. He was still three short.
If he couldn"t get it, wouldn"t he have to pay three divine weapons?
……
Since bu tuo ye was not willing to bring his divine weapon, Fang ping did not hold back either!
Without saying a word, he conjured up his spiritual power and self-destructed in the next moment!
Bu tuo ye"s entire body shone with golden light, but there was no sign of his spiritual power being intimidated!
This time, Fang ping knew that this guy was wearing accessories that could cut off mentality.
As for Budur ye"s golden light, Fang ping observed it for a while. It was not Golden Bones, nor was it a true golden body. It could only be said that a slightly stronger half-golden body was not necessarily stronger than his half-golden body.
An accessory that could cut off one"s spiritual power was also shockingly valuable!
Fang ping fixed his eyes on the other party. He did not hesitate. If one self-destruction was not enough, he would do it again!
If the second time wasn"t enough, he would continue!
It was not a big problem for him to self-destruct thirty to fifty times.
No matter how strong the accessory was, it was impossible to completely block the self-destruction of the materialized object.
Under everyone"s dumbstruck expressions, Fang ping self-destructed seven to eight times in a row. Finally, bu tuo ye could not hold on any longer. The golden light on his body began to dissipate, and blood flowed out of his seven orifices!
Even if he was wearing accessories, it could not stop Fang ping from doing this!
Just as Fang ping was about to step forward and end the other party with a slash, a rank-9 powerhouse from the ancient Buddha sacred land bellowed,"I admit defeat!"
"d.a.m.n it!"
Fang ping was furious!
The change in the rules of the second round had made him extremely unhappy.
How could it be as refres.h.i.+ng as the first round? as long as the other party could still fight, they could continue.
However, things had already come to this point. Everyone was staring at him. Fang ping glared at bu tuo ye fiercely and wiped his neck. His face was ferocious, and bu tuo ye"s heart palpitated a little when he saw it.
There was really a thug in China.
This guy didn"t have any intention of hiding!
