Chapter 77 - This Is Unfair
Chapter 77 - This Is Unfair
After Gong Yuxian left, Qin Tian started meditating.
He spent a day in the room just comprehending the Dao and increasing his control over his techniques.
When he opened his eyes again, it was time for the next round.
Hearing the commotion outside, he immediately stood up and walked to the door of the room.
Along the way, he did not see the other nine participants. It was clear that they had left early.
When he finally returned to the colosseum arena, it had turned into a different place.
The stone platforms before were gone. In fact, it didn't look like an arena anymore.
Under the help of a formation, the colosseum arena had become many times larger. There are even mountains, rivers and forests there.
Apart from that, Qin Tian also found that there was no pressure there so when they released their power there, cultivators could produce effects such as when they released their power outside or in a place that was not covered by the formation.
As he looked around, his gaze finally stopped at the spiritual screen that was above the colosseum.
The spiritual screen displays the names of the competition participants, and their opponents.
As he saw that, Qin Tian shook his head with a wry smile.
Gong Yuxian actually helped him openly.
The next round is divided into two groups.
Du Fang is in group 1 where each participant is the strongest among all participants who qualify for the next round.
He on the other hand is in grub 2 where the participants are the weakest. They were probably only on par with the three Spiritual Masters he had defeated before.
But it doesn't stop there,
Each grub is then divided once more into three grub. But because there were only five participants in each group, one of the participants was finally given the opportunity to pass directly to the third round. And he is the lucky participant.
People don't mind that. They felt that he deserved that opportunity because he could qualify for the second round with Spiritual Warrior cultivation.
But the problem is; in grub 1, the person who got the chance was the young master of the Ming clan. Ming Du.
It caused questions from a lot of people.
If Du Fang wasn't around, he might have the greatest chance of becoming the winner of the competition.
Of course, since no one knew exactly how the Dragon Palace made its decision, people could still accept the fact that it was him who accepted the opportunity.
But there was another problem that made Ming Du very unsuitable for that position. It was because just last night, he had suddenly broken through to the second stage of Spiritual Master.
Not to mention being passed directly to the third round, even being in group 1 with Du Fang was not very suitable for him. In people's view, he should be in group 2, and be the strongest participant in the group so that later he can meet Du Fang in the final round.
...
Qin Tian then walked towards where the other nine participants were.
They arrived early, and when they saw Qin Tian, ??they showed displeased expressions.
The fact that he arrived even later than Du Fang irritated them. Seen from another point of view, doesn't he think of himself as the main character because only the main character always comes late.
It was Du Fang who looked the most irritated, but Qin Tian could also feel the displeasure from Ming Du.
He probably realized why he was put on grub 1.
...
Qin Tian wanted to ignore them but one of them suddenly got in his way.
It was a large youth with a fierce face.
His name is Dong Zhu and he is one of Du Fang's followers. He is also in group 2 and he can be said to be the strongest among the participants in group 2.
"Son, do you think you can be the winner in group 2?" He said with an intimidating expression.
"Whether I win or not, we can see later." Qin Tian replied in a relaxed tone. He didn't even look at the young man. His gaze continued to be fixed on the colosseum arena.
The young man looked irritated, he almost hit Qin Tian, ??but he immediately stopped when he felt a sharp gaze from afar. The one looking at him was the middle aged man who was the judge yesterday.
"Don't be impatient." Said Qin Tian. "You have a chance to hit me later as long as you win the next fight."
"Well, I hope you have enough strength to hit me. Don't be like the two people yesterday who lost before they could even touch me."
After saying that, Qin Tian immediately walked to the corner of the place, leaving the young man with a dumbfounded expression.
"You." This time he was really angry. He was about to charge at Qin Tian, ??but Du Fang suddenly reached out to stop him.
...
Time passed second by second and more and more people came to the colosseum. Compared to yesterday, there were a hundred times as many people today.
The Colosseum could not accommodate them so some people ended up flying over the colosseum to watch. Of course, not everyone could fly so the Spiritual Masters had to step in to help them.
Qin Tian couldn't determine the number of people who had come today, but he estimated that there were over a million people who had come.
Each of them pay a ticket to watch. One ticket was sold for 1000 spiritual stones, and from those tickets alone, Dragon Palace was able to get a lot of benefits.
The profits they get may be more than the costs they incur.
...
After a while, the middle aged man who was sitting silently on top of the colosseum arena finally opened his mouth to speak. "Alright, let's start the competition."
"For the first fight, Du Fang vs T..."
....
Even though the enemy Du Fang was fighting was stronger than Dong Zhu, he still won the battle within three breaths.
The next battle lasted about half an hour because each of them had almost the same strength.
The winner then fought Du Fang for a place in the next round. And of course, Du Fang still won very easily. He won faster than before.
One of the problems that made people astonished was that the Dragon Palace didn't even give the participants a break.
After the first battle was over, it immediately proceeded to the next round.
But for the semi-finals, the Dragon Palace finally postponed the fight because now the competition has moved to Group 2.
Since the strength of the participants in grub 2 was almost equal, the battles lasted much longer.
And like most people thought, Dong Zhu was the winner. Even though it took him a lot of time, he ended up winning two fights.
"Very well, we will immediately proceed to the third round. Dong Zhu vs Qin Tian."
"..."
People initially thought the competition would return to grub 1. But Dragon Palace turned out to continue the grub 2 competition.
Dong Zhu, who was still exhausted from the previous two battles, couldn't help but feel the anger on his face.
"Jury, this is unfair." He finally protested...
