Chapter 214: Assessment Competition in Progress
Li Meng walked off the field amid the cheers of the audience. His dark face was flushed and his whole body was covered in sweat.
But his eyes were filled with triumphant ecstasy.
Zhao Li was a little dejected, but there were people around him who kept praising him.
"Zhao Li, you're very fast and strong. Don't be discouraged, you're already amazing!"
"That's right, Zhao Li, I'm confident in you. You'll definitely beat Brother Meng next time."
Hearing these words of encouragement and praise, Zhao Li regained his spirits, a smile appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "Okay, I will keep working hard, and I will win next time."
After that, he gestured to Li Meng and shouted, "Brother Meng, let's spar again some other day."
Li Meng also laughed cheerfully: "Okay, no problem, you've caused me quite a bit of trouble today, haha."
Next, each group of newcomers took the stage one after another, trying their best to show their strength and skills.
Guan Yueli could see that these newcomers were all strong, especially a few of them, who had unlimited potential. As long as they were well trained, they would become capable people in their own right in time.
Time passed quickly in the exciting competition.
Those who achieved good results in this competition received generous rewards.
After the first day's rookie competition, the second day will be the much-anticipated core competition.
The backbone field is divided into two parts. The first part is a one-on-one duel between the backbone elites.
The second part is a challenge between the top ten masters in the ranking. Those with lower rankings can challenge those with higher rankings, and those with higher rankings cannot refuse.
If the challenger wins, the challenger's ranking will automatically be promoted to the challenged's original ranking, and the challenged will automatically drop one place.
If you fail, the original ranking will remain unchanged.
For example, the person ranked eighth challenges the person ranked fifth. If the eighth-ranked person wins, his ranking will become fifth, and the original fifth-ranked person will automatically drop one place to sixth.
Of course, successful challenges will earn you huge points, which can be exchanged for supplies.
The higher the ranking, the more points you get.
The more cross-level challenges you complete, the more points you will get.
In order to avoid random challenges, if the challenge fails, the same number of points will be deducted.
It can be said that benefits and risks coexist.
But this cannot stop the courage and confidence of everyone who is eager to try.
Everyone who can make it to the rankings is very strong, and they compete with each other. Sometimes, even a difference of one ranking can create a huge gap between two people.
Sometimes, someone can successfully challenge a higher level.
Over the past few years, the rankings from second to tenth have changed countless times, and no one knows what the outcome of the competition will be.
Therefore, every year's challenge is a huge attraction.
As for the person ranked first, ever since Fu Zhen joined their organization, he has been firmly in first place for so many years and his position has never changed.
Gradually, few people would challenge him.
It’s not that everyone is not interested in the first place, but they understand that the gap between themselves and Fu Zhen is too big.
Fu Zhen's strength is a mystery. No one knows how powerful he is. All we know is that he only needs a light move to completely defeat the second-ranked master.
Even in the entire underground trading city of Continent M, no one can be his opponent.
However, what is strange is that every time he competes with others, he seems to be just a little bit better than others.
But no matter what level of strength a person is in, he can always be a little better than others.
Fu Zhen's strength is as mysterious as their leader.
Their leader Huan Ming is not included in the ranking, but everyone knows that his strength is unfathomable.
I don’t know who is more powerful, their boss or Huanming.
Guan Yueli participated in the second stage of the challenge, and she did not participate in the first stage of the competition.
The first stage of the backbone field competition officially began, and the atmosphere in the field was instantly ignited.
All the backbone elites have shown their best skills, and every match is exciting.
The audience was not idle either. They stared at the field intently and gossiped among themselves.
"Who do you think will make it into the top three this time?"
"It's hard to say. They both seem very powerful, but I still prefer Lao Zhang. His boxing skills are really impressive."
"I think Xiao Li has a chance. He's made rapid progress recently. Maybe he can give us a surprise."
"Look, look, Xiao Li won. Xiao Li's goal this year is to challenge the top ten masters in the rankings. He trains hard every day. I heard that his goal this time is to challenge the eighth-ranked Gu Tangzhu. I think he has a chance of success this time."
In the fierce competition, the contestants relied on their brute strength or clever techniques to present a series of wonderful battles to the audience.
In the end, Xiao Li, who was favored by everyone, won the backbone field championship. He is from Falcon Hall.
Lao Zhang from Black Bear Hall came in second, and Li Feng from Red Fox Team came in third.
Finally, the one-on-one duels of the first stage ended, and everyone welcomed the challenge of the second stage with anticipation.
Cheng Yuxing patted Huo Yanfeng's shoulder with a grin and said, "Now it's our turn to perform. This year I must challenge you. Last year I was one step behind and you took away my fifth place. This year I must take it back."
Huo Yanfeng sneered, "Hmph, what a prospect! If you're that good, go challenge Zheng Kui from the Black Bear Hall or Zuo Xiao from the Fierce Tiger Hall and come back for third or second place."
Cheng Yuxing and Huo Yanfeng, the happy enemies, are equally strong and take turns to rank fifth and sixth on the list.
Cheng Yuxing rubbed his hands together and said, "Just wait, I will defeat them sooner or later, but I have to defeat you first, hehe!"
Guan Yueli's eyes lit up when she saw that the challenge was about to begin. After watching the competitions for two days, she had been itching to join.
She looked at Fu Zhen, who was sitting beside her bored, and asked, "Second Brother, are there many people challenging you?"
Fu Zhen's voice was rather cold, "No."
Guan Yueli was surprised: "You are so unpopular? If Third Senior Sister knew, she would laugh to death at you."
Fu Zhen sneered: "They don't dare, they are too weak."
Fu Zhen looks cold, but anyone who knows him knows that he is in a good mood and his tone is quite gentle.
Guan Yueli thought about it and realized that with Second Senior Brother’s strength, who here could be his match?
Then, she became curious again: "Second Brother, is your cultivation still there? It's not suppressed."
Fu Zhen glanced at her and said, "Most of them are suppressed and cannot be used, but even if only one tenth of them remain, it is not something that ordinary people can contend with."
Guan Yueli said with interest: "Hehe, Second Brother, I guess it's been a while since you've met a worthy opponent. It just so happens that my spiritual power has recovered a little now. I'll challenge you later. We haven't competed in a long time."
Fu Zhen didn't say anything, just raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
After a moment, Fu Zhen said, "Isn't there anyone who is on par with me now?"
Guan Yueli was surprised: "Oh? Who? How could he tie with Second Brother?"
Fu Zhen glanced at her and said calmly, "What do you think?"
