Chapter 96 Elimination Rounds Begin
Chapter 96 Elimination Rounds Begin
Zhang Chulan, still hungover, woke up groggily in the players' lounge.
Although he didn't remember exactly what he did in the end, he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have done something extraordinary.
As soon as he stepped out of the room, he saw Xu Si. Upon seeing him, Xu Si couldn't help but cover his mouth.
"Hahaha! Zhang Chulan! You're amazing! You really showed off yesterday!"
"What...what did I do last night?!"
Xu Si laughed as he took out his phone from his pocket, found a video, and handed it to Zhang Chulan.
"If you look at it, this is your final, big performance last night!"
Zhang Chulan tremblingly took Xu Si's phone and nervously opened the video on it.
A few minutes later, looking at his "masterpiece" on his phone, especially after learning that his final "performance" had been broadcast globally by Douyin's live stream, Zhang Chulan collapsed to his knees in anguish.
Holy crap!!!
Xu Si, who was standing to the side, could no longer control himself and laughed loudly.
"Zhang Chulan, you're the first person in history, both ancient and modern, to walk his bird in front of the whole world! Hahahaha!"
……
No matter how much Zhang Chulan lamented, the video of him walking his bird could no longer be taken down from the internet.
As Zhang Chulan entered the competition venue, he seemed to sense people pointing and whispering about him.
Zhang Chulan wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground!
Amidst his continuous prayers, the elimination rounds of the Luo Tian Grand Ritual officially began.
A Taoist priest was standing on a high platform announcing the rules of the competition to the contestants below.
"This competition will be conducted in a one-on-one format. The opponents of the contestants will be drawn by Zhang Zhiwei, the Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion, in the presence of several of the Ten Elders. There will be absolutely no favoritism or cheating. It will be absolutely fair, just, and open!"
The matchups and order of all players have now been projected onto the big screen. Please check them yourself. The sixteen matches will be held in four different venues; please proceed to your designated venue promptly.
Zhang Chulan quickly found his opponent on it.
Chencheng?
Having already reviewed the information of all thirty-two contestants, Zhang Chulan immediately remembered that Chen Cheng was the only contestant from the Shu Zi Sect to participate in this competition!
Among all the contestants, Shu Zimen was one of the few who didn't aim to win the championship but instead sought to cause him trouble.
What a coincidence! I actually ran into her!
Xu Si had previously given him information about Chen Cheng, who was a rather mysterious figure in the Shu Zi Sect and seemed to be a disciple from Chen Jinkui's kinship.
A hint of worry flashed through Zhang Chulan's mind.
Since Chen Cheng dared to sign up, he must have been prepared to meet him.
Well, what's done is done. We'll see on the field later.
……
Zhang Chulan's competition is C3, so he needs to wait a while longer.
Since there would be a live recording later, Zhang Chulan simply headed straight to Arena C.
By this time, many spectators in the stands were already on high alert.
When he arrived, the referee was already calling for the players to enter the field.
Meanwhile, the audience in Qin Le's live stream room had already become quite lively.
"Hurry! Hurry! I want to see rivers of blood!"
"Why divide it into four venues? Why not just hold the competition one by one?"
"Yeah! I have to go back and watch the recording myself later, which really affects the viewing experience."
As soon as the draw ended, Qin Le immediately displayed all the players' matchups at the bottom of the live stream.
At this moment, the largest number of people had gathered in the live stream room number C!
There's no other reason than that both contestants who are about to participate in the C1 competition are heavyweights!
Ma Xianhong VS Wang Bing!
The first battle of the Eight Extraordinary Skills at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony!
Shortly after the videos of the Eight Extraordinary Skills were released, a large number of viewers began to discuss which of the Eight Extraordinary Skills was more powerful.
However, everyone had their own reasons, and the argument went on for a long time, plus there was no real record of them fighting each other.
No convincing conclusion has been reached through the debate.
But now! The first public clash between the Eight Extraordinary Skills has begun!
Moreover, both sides involved were of similar age, making it a competition between peers.
"Please invite Ma Xianhong and Wang Bing to enter!"
As the referee announced it again, the two contestants who were about to compete entered the competition venue through the staff entrance.
Wang Bing looked at Ma Xianhong, who was dressed in a gray-white training uniform, and a disdainful smile flashed across his lips.
"I didn't expect a weapon refiner like you to dare to participate in this kind of competition. If it were the old you, I would have been a little interested, but now you can only use one magic weapon. You should just admit defeat and avoid losing too badly later."
"Enough with the nonsense, let's talk after we win."
Ignoring Wang Bing's mockery, Ma Xianhong calmly stretched out his hands, revealing small red beads on his wrists.
Then, waves of black armor spread out from the bead, covering his entire body.
This is the last magical artifact Ma Xianhong left for himself - the Black Crow Armor.
According to the regulations of the Celestial Master's Mansion, there are no restrictions on the size or the amount of materials used in a ritual implement.
Therefore, the Black Armor, composed of multiple beads and capable of covering the entire body, became Ma Xianhong's final choice.
The Black Armor not only protects the entire body, but also greatly enhances Ma Xianhong's speed, strength, and other attributes.
It is a very comprehensive set of ritual implements.
As the Black Armor was applied, Qin Le also gave the audience a detailed introduction to the specific effects of the Black Armor in the live broadcast room.
"Armor fusion, right? Are magical artifacts this flexible?"
"I told you the technology in Kamen Rider is real!"
"I wouldn't be surprised if someone pulled out a Spark Lens and transformed into Ultraman someday."
"Hahaha, that's ridiculous. Do you think aliens really exist?"
Wang Bing, watching Ma Xianhong enter battle mode, grinned maliciously.
"Since you're courting death, I'll show you what I'm capable of!"
In an instant, streams of black energy emanated from Wang Bing's body, a manifestation of his use of the Spirit Binding and Commanding technique.
A hint of doubt flashed in Ma Xianhong's eyes as he watched Wang Bing rush forward.
Why does Wang Bing's behavior seem so chaotic? Why are his movements so awkward?
Isn't he a descendant of the Wang family? Why does he look so frail?
Was he acting?
After tentatively dodging for two minutes, Ma Xianhong still couldn't find anything unusual about Wang Bing.
"Hey Ma, what are you hiding for! You really are a rat, no wonder you've been hiding for so many years."
A flash of anger crossed Ma Xianhong's eyes; he couldn't stand anyone mocking his past experiences.
Whether Wang Bing intentionally wanted to provoke him or simply felt that way deep down, it didn't matter.
This undoubtedly crossed Ma Xianhong's bottom line.
"Humph!"
After a cold snort, Ma Xianhong flashed in front of Wang Bing and struck Wang Bing's dantian with all his might.
With a single blow, he was sent flying, crashing to the edge of the stage and losing consciousness.
The sudden end of the match caught the referee off guard, who then announced the result for match number C1.
"The winner is Ma Xianhong!"
