C74 (1/2)
Tai Jia had only entered the valley for a little more than four years, and amongst the members of the society, the shortest time to enter the valley was close to ten years.
The drawing of lots began, and in the end, Tai Jia faced off against Ji Wuming and Wu Ding. Shao Kang faced off against, the twenty-six year old Ximen Liebing.
In the two societies,, the vice team leader of Constellation Group, and Zuo Shanju, the vice alliance master of Heavenly Wolf Alliance, had both entered the Immemorial Time Realm once before. According to the rules, Immemorial Time Realm could only be entered once, and they wouldn't lose their qualifications to participate in the Large Competition later on.
Therefore, the two of them did not participate in the Large Competition. Moreover, both of them were over thirty years old, so they were not included in the competition.
The first match was between Shao Kang from the Constellation Group. Shao Kang had wanted to fight, but Tai Jia had called him over in advance and ordered him to give up on this battle without any suspense.
After all, the two of them were one stage too far apart in cultivation, so they were unable to fight. Thus, Shao Kang forfeited in the first round and successfully advanced to the next round.
The second match was between Tai Jia and Ji Wuming. Similarly, the two of them did not fight.
The next few battles were very intense and were all fought between the members of the society. Their cultivation levels weren't too different from each other. In these battles, the disciples progressed to the next round.
The last match was between Wu Ding and Xiaoyi. Xiaoyi accepted his loss, and through the drawing of lots, Wu Ding entered the next round.
As a result, the eight matches had been completed, and the top eight disciples had been produced. Within the Waste Valley, two disciples had actually entered the top eight, and six out of the societies had entered the top eight.
In truth, when Tai Jia and the others signed up, they did not hold much hope. To the rankers under the age of 30, their time in the valley was too short.
However, they never expected that their luck in drawing lots was so good. Thus, the two of them placed their hopes on the second round of drawing lots.
If the two were to draw again, Wu Ding would forfeit, and through the drawing of lots, Tai Jia would enter the third round, which would allow him to also be ranked in the top four.
In this way, under the circumstances of completely giving up on the following matches, he would also gain the qualification to enter the final round of the Desolate Valley. Of course, there was almost no possibility of him entering the Immemorial Time Realm in the end.
Perhaps, the heavens really cared too much about the Waste Valley this time. As he wished, Tai Jia and Wu Ding got together again and fought in the last round.
The four groups of eight people fought in an orderly manner. The fights between the members of the society were quick and efficient, and they didn't waste too much time. The battle between the three societies was not over.
And for the fourth group, Wu Ding would have immediately admitted defeat, allowing him to directly enter the top four.
It was unknown what the two of them were muttering about below. The two of them actually entered the battlefield and began to fight.
In addition, this battle was just too beautiful. The two didn't waste any energy, so it ended there and then.
The battle between the two had lasted for a full hour, yet there was still no clear victor. Moreover, anyone could tell that these two were faking the delay. Seeing that it was almost noon, everyone got anxious.
This was especially so for the overseer, who was extremely anxious. In the end, he could only bite the bullet and walk over to Wuma Xiaofeng: ”Chief, I'm afraid that this is not enough time!”
Wuma Xiaofeng raised his head and looked at Sun, and then lazily stood up and said: ”You two hurry up, there's not much time left!”
After hearing Wuma Xiaofeng's words, Wu Ding suddenly stopped, and Tai Jia's fist, which was light as a feather, just happened to land on his chest. Wu Ding immediately covered his chest, and revealed a painful expression on his face, then fell down with a thud.
