Chapter 253
Afterwards, the Great Elder and Elder Xue seemed to have agreed on something.
Elder Xue fell in the center of the Life and Death Platform, and his majestic gaze glanced at Du Xiaochuan and ten others.
"You ten of you fight against the other nine, winning one by one, losing one by one, losing one by one.
The person with the highest score in the end is the number one inner disciple in this assessment! The rest of the people are ranked according to their scores!"
Fight one by one?
After hearing this, everyone was not surprised.
"This is fair. There is no luck or accident, but the strength of the real sword and gun."
If it is a knockout round, it is easy for two tigers to compete and get out early.
When hearing this decision, some people are happy and some are worried.
"Dare you ask the elder, if the points are the same, who will rank higher?"
One person asked, "It was Xiao Ya, the only female disciple among the ten people."
Everyone has a strange mind about this woman who can reach the top ten in the martial arts world where men are the main ones.
"Two people with the same points will determine the order based on the outcome of their fights."
So that's it, Du Xiaochuan nodded.
In the top ten, each of them will fight against the other nine people.
Although it is not easy to have the same points, once it happens, it is fair to decide the outcome of the two of them in the first match.
However, Du Xiaochuan immediately discovered a serious problem.
"Fighting with the other nine people each, it seems fair, actually has some luck."
The simplest example is that there are differences in strength between ten people. A strong fighter with weak strength can easily win, while a loser may be injured, which will affect the next showdown and even a vicious cycle.
"Dare you ask the elder, can you admit defeat?"
Du Xiaochuan looked in surprise and saw that the person who spoke was Ling Feng, who had been severely injured before, who had entered the top ten.
His questions changed a little.
"Can!"
Elder Xue nodded, as if he had expected such a question to occur.
"Only cowards will admit defeat!"
Luo Changjun sneered, looking disdainful.
The rest of the people ignored him directly.
If there are so many people who are the ones that everyone doesn't like, Luo Changjun will undoubtedly be the first to be affected.
Du Xiaochuan and Xu Feng were closest to each other, and said with some concern: "Second Brother, this rule is a bit unfavorable to you."
Everyone knows that among the ten people, Ling Feng and Xu Feng are in the worst situation.
After Ling Feng's battle just now, he has not recovered yet. It would be good if he can have 60% or 70% of the combat power.
Xu Feng, the second-ranked man in the last year, has now cut off his arm and his strength will definitely be weakened.
Sure enough, Zheng Shui and others glanced coldly over them.
"It seems that the two of them are considered by the rest of them to win a victory."
Although I knew this was the truth, both Ling Feng and the second senior brother Xu Feng snorted slightly in my heart.
Especially Xu Feng, as the second in the previous place list, he has his own pride! "The person who ranked first before decided on the opponent in the first game first."
As soon as Elder Xue finished speaking, everyone's eyes gathered on Du Xiaochuan.
Du Xiaochuan stepped directly into the center of the Life and Death Platform, glanced at him from the nine people one by one, and decided which one to choose to fight first.
"Will he be the first one before?"
Yu Ge's expression seemed to swallow a fly, and he couldn't believe it.
The previous assessments between the inner disciples and the core disciples were separated, so they did not know what was happening between them.
At this moment, he almost glared out his eyes.
Shi Han was also a little surprised. Xu Feng had not told him about the past just now, and he was also surprised at this moment.
A round of light flashed in Li Qing's eyes, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he glanced at Shao Qingling beside him, and laughed in a low voice: "Brother Wei admires the junior sister's eyes more and more. This young man showed it again and again, and even Brother Wei couldn't help but want to find out."
Unfortunately, there was no response.
When he saw the beauty, he did not react at all. Even with Li Qing's unsightly personality, he could not help but frown slightly.
However, he did not show any displeasure, but just shook his head slightly.
“Who to choose?”
Du Xiaochuan knew very well that this seemingly fair rule actually had the first choice to choose opponents.
At least, he can choose the weakest man to easily win a victory, and then go to the person after the battle in a nearly perfect state.
On the contrary, the further we go, the harder the battle! Because after constant confrontation, like a wheel battle, even the strongest of the ten people, I was not sure that I could win! "Who would he choose?"
Everyone was waiting for Du Xiaochuan's decision.
"If I were him, in this first battle, I would definitely choose Xu Feng or one of Ling Feng.
Among the ten people, both of them were injured, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, which was the best choice to deal with and retain their strength."
Among the core disciples, one of them whispered.
None of the top ten inner disciples can easily solve the opponent.
Even if you win one game, if you accidentally consume too much or get injured, it will definitely affect the next battle.
"Under this rule, how to arrange the opponents in each battle is a science! If you don't calculate it well, even if your strength is expected to be the first, it is likely that the previous few rounds will consume too much and eventually lose to someone who could have defeated!"
This seems unfair but very fair rule! "Strength, luck, and even mind are important factors in whether a person can reach the peak of martial arts, and none of them are indispensable."
On the high platform, the Great Elder smiled slightly, which was the reason why he made such a decision.
"I don't need a pure warrior, nor do I need someone who can get promoted by luck.
What I need is to influence the entire Tianjian Sect, and even let the almost-split Tianjian Sect reunite and return to the talented people who were in the grand occasion thousands of years ago!"
No one knows that this old man who never leaves the door on weekdays has persistence and dreams in his heart.
Du Xiaochuan was hesitating, and he also knew that his choice was crucial.
"Du Xiaochuan, consider the opponent you choose clearly, which will play a crucial impact on your subsequent battle."
Elder Xue reminded her for the first time, which made many people's expressions flash slightly.
"Elder Xue is an absolute confidant of the Great Elder's sect. His every word and action represents the meaning of the Great Elder."
Everyone looked strange, and some of the disciples who knew that Elder Xue had taken great care of Du Xiaochuan along the way had even speculated.
"Is it him who the Great Elder selected?"
Zheng Shui had a gloomy face. He knew more than many people, but because of this, when he saw his master so partial, the jealousy in his heart was like a spark that could start a prairie fire, becoming more and more violent.
Du Xiaochuan didn't feel Elder Xue's kindness.
However, after learning about the purpose behind the appraisal of this disciple, he became more cautious.
He looked up at the platform, and Old Xuan looked calm, as if he didn't care about his choice.
"I choose..." Finally, Du Xiaochuan made a decision.
But halfway through the words, I saw a figure standing in the center of the Life and Death Platform.
"Second Brother?"
It was Xu Feng, who could only see Xu Feng, whose right sleeve was covered in blood, looking at Du Xiaochuan calmly.
"Young brother, don't hold back, let me see how strong your true strength is."
No one expected that Xu Feng would step onto the stage of life and death by himself.
"Second Brother, I'm not..." Du Xiaochuan just spoke, but was interrupted by Xu Feng: "Little Brother, do you look down on Brother Wei?"
Before he finished speaking, a long sword instantly appeared in Xu Feng's remaining left hand, and a sword light came in an instant like a tricky poisonous snake.
Du Xiaochuan had no choice but to resist, but did not fight back.
He knew the second senior brother’s mind, after all, the second senior brother did not even use martial spirits and formations.
"My junior brother, you and I will make a few moves, and then give in for the loss for me! Remember, don't expose too much strength! Keep it for the last time and then take action!"
The two of them passed by, and the second senior brother whispered in their ears! The opponent he originally wanted to choose was Ling Feng! At least after seeing his previous battle, Du Xiaochuan was sure that he would not expose too many cards and had a 90% chance of winning! However, the second senior brother's actions made him more stable in this battle! He didn't even need to expose too much to win a victory! The two seemed to be just right and right, and then Xu Feng deliberately revealed a flaw, and was hit by Du Xiaochuan's sword and was shocked from the life and death stage.
"Second Brother, I admit it."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the result was actually quite satisfactory to both of them.
Xu Feng knew that it was impossible to compete for the first place this time, so he entrusted his hope to Du Xiaochuan, the junior brother.
Everyone is not blind, but no one will point it out.
Even Elder Xue turned a blind eye, and the rest of the people would not question it.
