C297 Toward the finals

The first day of the tournament had passed so easily. By night time, 20 participants had been eliminated, leaving behind only 20.

Actually, these twenty people could already be considered above the Genius Stone, but now, everyone was fighting to be even stronger than the Genius Stone.

After all, Genius Stone represented honor. Whoever could rank at the top of the Genius Stone would have unlimited honor.

On the second day, Ye Xingchen also went to the scene, because the new round of drawing of lots had started again.

By the time everyone had reached the plaza, the main platform was already filled with people, and Grey-robed Elder was already standing on the Arms Drill Platform.

"Hello everyone, I believe everyone knows, after yesterday's competition, we have decided on the twenty spots for Genius Stone, and today we are also drawing lots. Two against two, fighting until the top three are decided." Grey-robed Elder said loudly.

After that, the Grey-robed Elder did not waste any words, and directly started drawing lots. Ye Xingchen got number 10, and if nothing unexpected happened, it would be the last match.

Not long later, Grey-robed Elder finished counting the lot.

"According to the rules, # 1 will fight # 20. The match starts now." With that, the Grey-robed Elder walked up the stage.

"First round, Lin Hua against Xu Yin!"

"I admit defeat!"

Lin Hua's might was clear to all, Xu Yin immediately admitted defeat.

With regards to this, Lin Qian laughed: "Next, big brother will be more relaxed, but other than Ning Fengxue and Ye Xingchen, basically no one is big brother's match. Rather than wasting time and getting defeated by these participants, it's better for them to save up their stamina and vitality, and deal with the Contestant that can be dealt with."

Lin Hua did not really care if anyone admitted defeat. In any case, he only needed to swing his fist once to get on stage, and the amount of stamina that he used was extremely insignificant, but Second Brother Lin Qian's competition was not easy either. He reminded: "According to my judgement, your opponent should be a profound practitioner, so you must be careful.

Although Lin Hua's words were not accurate to the point, they were undoubtedly close. It had to be said that in terms of perception, Lin Qian was not stronger than him. Lin Hua understood the twenty people very well, if not he would not say it like this.

Lin Qian did not doubt him and said: "That means, the following matches will be very difficult? Big brother, don't worry, I won't be careless. "

"There's some luck in the first stage of the knock-out tournament, as long as you're lucky enough, you'll be able to make it to the second stage without any problems."

In the first stage of the knock-out tournament, all the contestants were fighting in a melee. Thus, some of the weaker martial artists were able to survive. But from the second stage onwards, the weaker martial artists would no longer have a chance.

"Eh, Gu Changtian met an opponent!"

Right at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the competition on the Arms Drill Platform. The two people on the stage were none other than Gu Changfeng of the Heavenly Profound Chamber of Commerce and Chu Zhongtian of the City Lord Palace.

Gu Changtian was ranked fourth in the previous tournament, while Chu Zhongtian was ranked third. This was a showdown between the strong and the weak.

No one expected that Chu Zhongtian and Gu Changtian would clash at this stage. Obviously, one of them would stop at the top 20.

The two were both outstanding youths in terms of their fist arts. Their techniques were hard to differentiate between profound and profound, and each had their own strengths.

Ye Xingchen, who was in the Ye Family area, shook his head. Gu Changtian's luck was a little bad, regardless of whether it was his cultivation or his fist techniques, Chu Zhongtian was stronger than him. Right now, they were unable to determine victory or defeat, because Chu Zhongtian did not use his full strength.

"Good, not bad, Gu Changtian. You have made great progress in this one year." Chu Zhongtian laughed out loud, his fist techniques suddenly becoming powerful, suppressing Gu Changtian in an absolute disadvantage.

"Snow Dance Fist!"

Gu Changtian's face was expressionless as he clenched his fists tightly. His fists were powerful enough to defy the heavens, and in that moment, it was as though a heavy snowstorm had descended on the stage, as fist imprints filled the air.

"Break!"

Without any techniques, Chu Zhongtian formed a fist with one hand, his body leaping high into the air as he punched downwards.

BOOM!

Like snow, the fist imprints shattered one after another as Gu Changtian collided against the dark blue light barrier.

"Thank you!" Clasping his fists together, Chu Zhongtian kept his fists and stepped down the stage.

Beneath the Arms Drill Platform, many people were watching the competition attentively, and were discussing about it.

"Chu Zhongtian is indeed worthy of being a fist arts master of the young generation. He actually managed to comprehend a fist intent at the Small Three Levels of Grandmaster Stage realm.

Ye Xingchen possessed the Sword Intent, while Chu Zhongtian possessed the Fist Aura, each of them being different.

When Ye Xingchen was using his Small Three Levels of Grandmaster Stage, he had comprehended ten percent of the Sword Intent.

"Gu Changtian is not bad either, his fist techniques are not inferior to Chu Zhongtian, the only thing that is lacking is that his cultivation and fist intent are slightly lacking, as long as he has enough time, catching up to Chu Zhongtian would not be impossible."

"Indeed, ordinary warriors are nothing in Chu Zhongtian's eyes. Gu Changtian obviously suits his taste, both of them use fists."

"Oh right, is Chu Zhongtian able to make it into the current year's top five geniuses?"

"It might be a bit difficult, but even if they could be ranked, they would probably still be at the bottom."

"There are way too many rising stars in this year's competition, and it's not easy to stand out. Furthermore, there's also an abnormal genius like Ye Yu and her, so for some reason, there's still two slots left."

"Don't forget, Lin Hua's little brother, Lin Qian, is also not to be underestimated.

"The top three of the five geniuses have been decided, it's definitely three Grandmaster Stage warriors, I need to slowly reveal the rankings later."

The five great geniuses weren't official titles, because in every genius competition, some geniuses with exceptional talent would appear, and if they were eye-catching, they would all be included. When the genius competition was over, those martial artists that hadn't come to watch the competition, after understanding about the five great geniuses, would know who the geniuses were.

"The ninth battle, Ning Fengxue versus Leng Yuehua."

"I admit defeat."

Similarly, when the competition reached the ninth match, Ning Fengxue had appeared on stage. His opponent, Leng Yuehua, admitted defeat immediately, because she knew that she was no match for Ning Fengxue at all.

, Ye Xingchen, and Ning Fengxue, the three Grandmaster Stage Martial Cultivator s, won the competition easily each time.

"The tenth match, Ye Xingchen against Xue Wu Hen!"

"I admit defeat!"

The handsome young man raised his hand, indicating that he had given up.

It was unknown if it was because Ye Xingchen's strength was too shocking, but in the entire tournament of geniuses, all the Contestant that were in's match gave up, and did not plan to waste time.

As for the others, they were having a hard time. In a few rounds, Ye Yu had performed exceptionally well, and her performance was also very dazzling.

So far, all ten matches had been fought, and among the ten people that were eliminated, the most pitiful person was Gu Changtian. Gu Changtian glanced at Chu Zhongtian, and helplessly shook his head.

And in the following matches, the ten people who would be eliminated would fight, because they would be ranked above the Genius Stone.

And Gu Changtian did not disappoint either. Standing out among ten people, he was ranked eleventh on the Genius Stone.

However, Gu Changtian was obviously not satisfied with his ranking, and helplessly curled his lips.

The last ten rankings were completed very quickly. Other than Gu Changtian, there were no other people who were surprised.

The following matches were the top ten matches. As long as they won the next match, they would have the qualifications to be ranked in the top five.

Everyone was excited, the remaining ten people were: Ye Xingchen, Ning Fengxue, Lin Hua, Lin Hua, Lin Qian, Dao Shentong, Zhuge Tian, Chu Zhongtian,, Ding Feiyu, Lu Chang.

As for Ning Fengyu and the others, they had long been eliminated.

Amongst these ten people, Ye Xingchen, Ning Fengxue, Ning Fengxue were the undisputed top three. Ye Yu and Lin Qian were the dark horses of the year, while Dao Shentong, Zhuge Tian and the others were all at the third level of Soul Pass. Chu Zhongtian was ranked third last year in the Genius Stone, and Ding Feiyu and Lu Chang were all the new stars today, so they were also the practitioners of the small families.

"The following matches are the most exciting. For the top 10, two or three matches will take place. This time, there's no need to draw lots. We've already decided on our strategy and we wish everyone the best." Grey-robed Elder said loudly.

"First round, Ye Xingchen against Zhuge Tian."

Zhuge Tian did not choose to admit defeat. He was not a nameless person and in the last session of the Genius Stone, he was ranked seventh. Although he was not Ye Xingchen's match, he would not admit defeat.

Once on stage, Zhuge Tian launched an attack, he knew that if Ye Xingchen were to grasp the rhythm of the attack, he would lose.

"Take my strongest move, Tiger Break Kill!"

moved several tens of meters away as he punched towards Ye Xingchen. Under the effect of this wave of aura, the air in front of him was instantly sucked out.

Clang!

The first fist's aura was broken as the second fist's aura tore apart Zhuge Tian's Spiritual Strength. The other party was sent flying by the fist's aura.

"Ye Xingchen wins!"

Grey-robed Elder was not surprised, he raised his hand and signaled Ye Xingchen to win the last round.

"Formidable. It's fine if he doesn't make a move, but if he does, the battle will be resolved in an instant."

"Five great geniuses, he's definitely one of the top three, he's really amazing."

"You don't have to be so harsh on me. Are you going to let me live?"

The moment Ye Xingchen defeated Zhuge Tian, the alliance master of the Skyfire Alliance had a very ugly expression. The previous Zhuge Tian was ranked seventh on the Genius Stone, and he was extremely dazzling, but this time he was sent flying by Ye Xingchen's two fists.

Everyone was shocked at Ye Xingchen's strength, and he was unquestionably in the top three.

Chu Zhongtian, who was seated below, looked at Ye Xingchen. His eyes were blazing as though he wanted to fight with Ye Xingchen.

Everyone knew that Chu Zhongtian was obsessed with martial arts and wholeheartedly trained. Last year, he was ranked third among the strongest Genius Stone.

Although everyone predicted that Chu Zhongtian would not be ranked in the top three today, Chu Zhongtian did not care about the rank of the Genius Stone at all.
