Chapter 275 Competition Rules
I have to say that although the Xingyuzong cultivator's face is stinky, the rooms in the guest house are still very high-end.
Led by a maid, Wang Liang came to his room, and when he opened the door, there was a pleasant sandalwood fragrance.
The interior decoration is also top-notch, even the first-class rooms in the restaurant outside are completely incomparable.
Wang Liang clicked his tongue again and said, "Tsk tsk... A random guest room is so luxurious, this Xingyue Sect is really rich and powerful."
"However, it also shows that the Xingyuzong has oppressed the thirty-three forces in Dongshan Prefecture hard enough, and we can see some clues from Ji Wu before."
"This could be a breakthrough for me to engage in Xingyuzong in the future. After all, it is too difficult to save people from such a force by myself..."
Before entering the guest house just now, the members of Xingyuzong had already said that today they can move about freely.
Because of the annual tribute meeting, the thirty-three factions have to arrive one day in advance, and during this day, they are basically waiting.
Freedom is not restricted at all, except for the main halls at the core of Xingyuzong, you can wander around freely.
After Wang Liang stayed in his room for a while, he went out.
When you come to a park, there are rockery, flowers, trees, and ponds in the park, just like the imperial garden in the palace.
Walking among them, Wang Liang seems to be wandering aimlessly, admiring the garden scenery.
In fact, his spiritual consciousness has already spread out, carefully extending it underground.
Not long after, Wang Liang's body froze and his brows furrowed;
"Sure enough, there is a formation barrier underground, and it is not weaker than the outer barrier. The plan to escape from the ground after saving people seems to be unworkable..."
After ruling out one possibility, Wang Liang walked back, but on the way, he met three brothers, Ji Ba, Ji Ying, and Ji Wu.
The three brothers of the Ji family also saw Wang Liang, and as the "brother-in-law", Ji Wu was the first to greet him.
"Brother-in-law, come out to play, why didn't you call me, you are the first time to come to Xing Yuzong, you must not be familiar with it, but I do, I know where there is fun."
Wang Liang smiled and said, "It's okay, I just came out to get some air and wander around."
In his heart, Wang Liang was slandering; 'Call you? Then how can I survey the terrain, and you guy, it seems that you have been fooling around in Xing Yuzong. '
'how? Are you going to take your uncle to find a good girl together? Pooh! Shameless! '
At this time, Ji Ying, the second master, came over and said to Wang Liang with a false smile on her face;
"Brother Liang, there are still quite a lot of rules in Xingyuzong. When you come out in the future, it's better to talk to us first, so as to avoid some unnecessary troubles."
Wang Liang narrowed his eyes, but still nodded with a smile;
"Okay, let the heads of the family bother, I will pay attention to it in the future."
Ji Ba smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, Xingyuzong is still very lenient to us before the start of the new meeting."
"And I have taken care of everything up and down, so no one will pick our thorns easily. The most important thing..."
After a pause, Ji Ba used sound transmission, only a few of them could hear;
"The tribute we brought this year can make it into the top ten. At that time, we will work hard to win a few games in the competition and strive to get a Hunyuan Pill!"
Hearing the words "Hunyuan Pill", Wang Liang was taken aback for a moment, and then blurted out;
"Hunyuan Pill of Ninth Grade Pill? Xing Yuzong will reward us with such a treasure?"
With the increase of alchemy skill points, Wang Liang acquired more and more knowledge about elixirs from the system.
Hunyuan Pill is a well-known ninth-grade elixir, and it is also the treasure that all cultivators below the Nascent Soul Realm dream of.
Because the Primordial Pill can help the Jindan Realm break through the Nascent Soul Realm!
Of course, the breakthrough here is not 100%, after all, the difficulty of achieving Nascent Soul is a hundred times more difficult than achieving Jindan.
But the Primordial Pill can increase the success rate of the breakthrough by 20%, and even if the breakthrough is unsuccessful, it can protect the practitioner from being backlashed.
Yes, when breaking through the Nascent Soul Realm, if you don't succeed, you will be backlashed by terror.
Cultivators who often fail to break through the Nascent Soul Realm will be seriously injured and hard to recover, and their cultivation will regress, or they will die and disappear in ashes and smoke!
Just like this, it reflects the preciousness of Hunyuan Pill.
With the Hunyuan Pill, you can break through with confidence. Even if you fail, this ninth-grade elixir can protect yourself from backlash.
Such a miraculous effect, how could it not be coveted by cultivators under the Nascent Soul Realm.
Wang Liang is no exception. He now only has 6 skill points in alchemy, and he can only refine sixth-grade pills.
It is still far from being able to refine a ninth-grade elixir.
And alchemy is not only about technology, but also materials.
The material of Hunyuan Pill is hard to find, it is priceless, and the refining process is complicated.
It is said that a ninth-rank alchemist can only refine three alchemists a year with sufficient materials.
And behind these three coins, there are thirty or even more failure experiences accumulated.
The success rate is less than 10%, which further increases the rarity of this elixir.
That's why Wang Liang was so surprised when he heard that Xing Yuzong would use the Hunyuan Pill as a reward... At the same time, he also had some thoughts deep in his heart.
Ji Ying still had that superficial smile on her face, and said;
"Brother Liang thinks too well. A treasure like Hunyuan Pill will not be easily obtained just because we send some tribute."
"Brother just said that we have to work hard to win a few games in the competition before we can get a Hunyuan Pill."
"To put it bluntly, this Hunyuan Pill was brought out by Xing Yuzong to let the thirty-three forces compete with each other."
"Whoever wins the most competitions will have a chance to get the Hunyuan Pill, and we have never obtained a Hunyuan Pill in the hundreds of years since we dominated the martial arts hall."
At this time, Ji Wu also said in a deep voice, "It's all those guys who are targeting us! We are not able to get a good ranking in the competition every year."
"This year we have spent all our money, and the tribute we prepared should be able to enter the top ten, so that we have the right to choose opponents before each round of competition."
"This time, we must avenge our shame!"
Wang Liang finally understood, nodded his head and said;
"That is to say, in the previous annual tribute meeting, several forces would treat us as a persimmon, right?"
"And it sounds like this competition is not completely fair. Whoever sends the most tributes will have the right to choose an opponent and take the upper hand."
"Then how many games do you have to win to get the Hunyuan Pill, and how many Hunyuan Pills will Xingyuzong take out in total?"
Ji Ba explained;
"Thirty-three forces in Dongshan Prefecture are divided into nine cities and twenty-four counties, nine cities are divided into one group, and twenty-four counties are another group."
"Xing Yuzong will take out a total of four Hunyuan Pills, two for the Ninetowns to compete with, and the other two for the Twenty-Four Counties to compete with."
"As long as our tributes this year can enter the top ten, in the twenty-four counties, we can choose our opponents at will."
"The competition in the twenty-four counties is divided into twenty-four to twelve, twelve to six, six to three, and finally three to two."
"In the twenty-four counties, if the one who pays the most tribute can make it to the top three, when the third gets to the second, he will have a bye and directly get the Hunyuan Pill."
Hearing this, Wang Liang nodded thoughtfully; "Then the advantage of paying the most tribute is really not small."
"Not only can you choose a weaker opponent for each round of competition, but you can also save one competition at the last moment to avoid the strongest enemy."
Ji Wu said, "That's right, that's why we invested heavily this time, just to win this advantage. This year's Hunyuan Pill is bound to be won!"
At this time, Ji Ying laughed again, "Big Brother, Fourth Brother, it seems that there is no need to talk so much with Brother Liang."
"After all, with Brother Liang's cultivation in the early stage of alchemy, the role on the field is to convey true energy, and there is no need to know too much about the rest."
Wang Liang was taken aback again, pointed at himself and said, "Huh? I want to play too?"
Ji Ba said seriously;
"Of course, each round of competition is divided into three rounds. The first round is a battle between the strongest cultivators, and the second round is a battle between the strongest cultivators below the Golden Core Realm."
"And the third game is a team battle. At that time, all those above the alchemy level will be on the field, representing the overall strength of a force."
"Of course, if both the first and second games were won by one side, then the third teamfight would not be necessary."
"The rule of the competition is two wins in three rounds. Only when the first two rounds have one win and one loss, will the third round of team battles take place."
After hearing these words, Wang Liang was a little confused.
He really didn't know about this before. He originally wanted to come to Xingyuzong to inquire about news, survey the terrain, and didn't want to participate in any competition.
What's going on with this sudden team battle?
How come I never heard of it before?
Seeing Wang Liang's reaction, Ji Wu thought he was nervous, so he comforted him;
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, as long as our tribute can enter the top ten, that is, the first in the twenty-four counties, then the third team battle will basically not happen."
"In previous years, we were picked by some nasty guys to be opponents. We were directly suppressed in the first two games, and there was no chance for the third game."
"This year we will also be the No. 1 tribute. The opponents selected in each round must be stable in the first two rounds, so there is no need for a third round."
Wang Liang suddenly realized; 'It turns out that it's rare to be able to advance to the third round. Also, if a power is strong, it will often decide the winner in the first two rounds. '
'However... according to what you said, you have been miserable in the past. If you can get the first place in the tribute of the twenty-four counties this year, will it really be as smooth as you say? '
'Why do I feel a little uneasy...'
Soon, the next day arrived, and the tribute meeting officially began.
In front of a main hall, teams of thirty-three factions lined up neatly.
Nine teams from Ninetowns are in front, and 24 teams from 24 counties are behind.
When the three Xingyuzong elders came out of the main hall, thousands of people from the thirty-three teams all bowed down and saluted respectfully.
On the side, a steward began to read out the list of tributes for this year, and made a ranking;
"First place, the Xiao family in Yancheng, tribute, one top-grade spirit stone, one hundred top-grade spirit stones, one eighth-grade magic weapon..."
