167 Contest of strength
Xia Pingan was shocked to see someone being thrown out.
In the past 4 years, one would have seen so many strange faces. That man had met someone 4 years ago and could still remember him until today. What a terrifying memory! It was like awakening a special ability to identify others.
Very quickly, it was Xia Pingan’s turn. Xia Pingan received a number plate, and Qu You and qianyue, who were behind her, received a number plate.
Xia Pingan realized that the number of the number plates was random and not in order. The number plate he received was number 68, and qu youqian was behind him. The number plate he received was number 113.
Within a few minutes, everyone received a number plate.
There were a total of 326 people participating in the selection today.
“Those who have received the number plate, you can follow me in!” The young man in his 20s told everyone before leading the 326 people into the camp of the judgement Army from the side door.
After entering the camp, there was a wide road with pine and cypresses planted on both sides. Less than 100 meters inside was a huge drill ground.
There were hundreds of numbered squares on the ground of the drill ground. Each square was more than 30 square meters and the size of an arena.
well, everybody, look at your number plates and enter the arenas according to the numbers on your number plates, ” the young man at his 20s said loudly.
Everyone then entered the squares of the arena.
now, those who have an even number plate can enter the odd-numbered ring that is one digit smaller than you. Those in ring number 2 can enter ring number 1. Those in ring number 3 can enter ring number 2.
Xia ping ‘an walked to stand 67, where a sturdy Summoner in his thirties was sitting. He was staring at Xia ping’ an with a serious expression and taking a deep breath.
Xia Pingan could already guess what was going to happen next.
As long as one’s brain wasn’t damaged, they could guess what would happen next.
the first stage of the selection of the adjudicators is to test everyone’s hand-to-hand fighting ability. The fighting area will be in the ring. If you are knocked down and unable to get up, are kicked out of the yellow line, step outside the yellow line, or admit defeat, you will be eliminated. If two people fall out of the ring together, both people will be eliminated. If both people are in the ring at the end of the competition, both people will be eliminated at the same time. In the end, if you can’t stand up on your own, you will also be eliminated. You can’t use any weapons, hidden weapons, poison, summoning spells, or special awakened abilities in unarmed combat. Once you’re discovered, you’ll be eliminated. We hope that everyone will stop here, but injuries and deaths are inevitable in the arena. Everyone is responsible for your own life and death.”
The young man at his 20s said,”we can start now, Zhenzhen!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people on the ring started to fight.
Among the 163 rings in the arena, some Summoners caught the summoner off guard and attacked quickly. Almost at the beginning, they didn’t even say a word and blasted the summoner in the same ring out of the ring, winning in an instant.
Many Summoners in the ring began to fight fiercely.
Xia ping ‘an was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, she cupped her fists at the summoner in front of her, who was acting as if he was facing a great enemy. She said apologetically, ” brother, I’m sorry for offending you!
The summoner didn’t rush over either. Instead, he cupped his fists at Xia Pingan and said, ” I didn’t offend you today. Since everyone wants to join the adjudicator Union, let’s see who’s the best!
“Please!”
“Please!”
Xia Pingan didn’t know the other party’s background, so she didn’t dare to be careless. She immediately got into a fighting stance, and so did the person opposite her.
The two of them turned half a circle on the ring. The person on the opposite side let out a loud roar and suddenly rushed towards Xia ping ‘an. He punched Xia ping’ an in the chest, sharp and fierce.
Xia ping ‘an didn’t back down. He directly used one of the seven forms of the fierce tiger, the fierce tiger descends the mountain. Using his fist as a knife, he punched out.
Xia Pingan threw out a punch, and the sound of a tiger’s roar could be heard in the wind caused by his punch, which immediately attracted the attention of the audience outside the arena.
The two fists collided without any fancy moves. Xia Pingan’s body did not move an inch, but the man’s body was forced to take three steps back. His expression changed slightly.
Xia Pingan knew that his opponent was not weak, but he was no match for him in terms of speed, strength, reaction time, and moves.
That person seemed to have also felt it; however, he didn’t give up; instead, he tried his best as he roared and rushed towards Zhang tie once again.
After exchanging more than 10 moves with that person, Xia Pingan glared at him like a tiger watching its prey. In a dazzled field of fist shadows and palm shadows, Xia Pingan’s palms landed on that person’s chest and directly sent him flying out of the No. 67 ring.
After being thrown out of the ring, the man’s body was only shaken, and his qi and blood were not flowing smoothly. He rolled and got up. He also knew that Xia Pingan had shown mercy. He had no time to defend himself at all. Xia Pingan’s palms were raised a few more times, and he could have taken his throat.
The man was convinced of his defeat. He cupped his fists at Xia Pingan and left.
Xia ping ‘an was the only one in challenge ring 67.
The other rings also had their own winners and losers.
Xia ping ‘an looked at challenge ring No. 113 and saw qu youqian’s agile movements. He was wandering around the entire ring, making the person who was fighting with him dizzy. Not long after, the person who was fighting with qu youqian saw that there was no clear winner and became a little anxious. Qu youqian skillfully grabbed his hand and threw him out of the ring. Qu youqian won.
In less than ten minutes, the outcome of all the Rings had been decided. Of the 326 people who had entered together, half of them were eliminated in the blink of an eye.
Blood had already been seen on many of the platforms.
Those who were eliminated were immediately taken away from the main camp of the adjudicator Army, while those who were injured were directly carried away. After a single battle, many people had their arms and legs broken, and in the end, only 163 people remained in their respective rings.
The atmosphere in the arena became somber.
now, the winner of ring 3 will enter Ring 1, the winner of Ring 7 will enter ring 5, the winner of ring 11 will enter ring 9, and so on ... There’s no one left in this round, so you can move on to the next round. You can start now, ” the voice said.
The people in each ring started to move. The people in ring 65 did not move, so Xia Pingan walked from ring 67 to ring 65.
As for the bye for this round, it was luck, and luck was also a part of one’s ability and strength.
The person on ring 65 was a woman in her 20s. She had a nimble figure and looked quite charming. She was wearing a long green dress. However, Xia Pingan did not dare to underestimate this woman. The man who had just fought with this woman was kicked in the temple by this woman. He flew out of the ring while vomiting blood. He was carried off the ring by someone.
Mei ‘er has just arrived in Shangjing and has no one to rely on. She wants to join the adjudicator Union to make a living and have someone to rely on. Brother, please take pity on Yingluo when you make a move. seeing Xia Pingan walk over, the woman still had a pitiful look on her face and bowed to Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan pursed her lips and smiled. don’t worry, sister. I’ll be gentle later. Sister, don’t kick my face. It’s more important than that.
The woman looked at Xia Pingan. Her eyes moved, and she smiled like a flower. why don’t I have a competition with my brother? if my brother loses, I’ll admit defeat and let my sister have a match. How about that? ”
“How do we compete in terms of literature?”
“How about a rock-paper-scissors?”
While the two of them were conversing, the other arenas had already begun to fight.
Compared to the first round, the competition between the victors this time was even more intense, and their standards had clearly risen to a higher level.
Xia Pingan burst into laughter. He was determined to join the adjudicator Army, so he didn’t want to play any tricks with this woman. rock-paper-scissors is too easy. Since you want to compete in literature, why don’t we compete in poetry? you and I will each come up with a question, and the loser will leave on his own. How about it? ”
The woman sighed faintly and said with a bitter face, ” brother, you don’t want to give in to me anymore? ”
“Hahaha, I can play rock-paper-scissors with you when I drink with you. Now that you don’t want to give way to me, let’s play rock-paper-scissors with real strength. That way, I will feel more stable. Please!”
“Sigh, in that case, I’ll have to offend you!” As the woman spoke, she did not hesitate at all. Her figure moved, and her palm was like a knife, directly stabbing towards Xia ping ‘an’s throat. It was extremely ruthless, and her speed was much faster than Xia ping’ an’s opponent.
Xia Pingan showed no mercy and kicked the woman’s waist. The woman dodged to the side and kicked Xia Pingan in the crotch.
F * ck!
This woman’s attack was too ruthless. This move forced Xia ping ‘an to take a step back.
After exchanging a few blows, Xia ping ‘an realized that this woman’s advantage was her agile and ever-changing body. However, her strength was somewhat lacking compared to her previous opponent. Therefore, this woman’s attacks were all killing moves. She wanted to win in one move.
“I don’t think she’s good at using fists and legs. She usually uses some kind of small and exquisite weapon in close combat. If she has another weapon, her lethality will be completely different when she’s superior in speed and body movement.”
If she had met someone else, it wouldn’t have been difficult for this woman to win again. But if she met Xia ping ‘an, it would be equivalent to her being unlucky and kicking an iron plate.
After exchanging a few moves, Xia Pingan used the Crouching Dragon and Crouching Tiger technique. He used his shoulder and arm to take the woman’s kick to the back of his head. Then, he seized the opportunity to grab the woman’s ankle. Without waiting for the woman to twist her body and launch a series of kicks, Xia Pingan threw her violently, using his strength to break through technique. He threw the woman’s legs off the ground and spun like a windmill. With a whoosh, she was thrown out of the circle.
The woman’s body rolled in the air like a gymnast, but she couldn’t borrow or unload the force. When she landed, she was already standing a few meters away from the yellow line.
Xia ping ‘an smiled and cupped his fists at the woman. The woman glared at Xia ping’ an, stomped her foot, and turned to leave.
On qu youqian’s side, this battle was a bit difficult to win. Although qu youqian won, he was beaten to the point of coughing up blood.
After this round, another 81 people were eliminated, leaving only 82 people.
Those who were eliminated were directly led out of the military camp.
the first round of selection has ended. Everyone, follow me. We’ll proceed with the second round of selection. the two men from the adjudicator Union looked at the people who had stayed behind and continued to lead Xia Pingan and the others into the military camp.
