Chapter 547: The new generation of strong experts in the Star Fall Continent

"Village Chief, I'm sorry, I let you down!"

Outside Ziyan Prefecture City where Liu Family Village was located.

The first round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition had just ended, and Li Lan came to Liu Liu Laosan with a dejected look to admit his mistake.

As one of the two mid-stage Qi Refining Realm cultivators from Liu Family Village participating in this competition, Li Lan was full of confidence before coming to participate in the competition, having repeatedly boasted in front of Liu Liu Laosan that he would enter the final competition and win glory for Liu Family Village.

It was just that what Li Lan didn't expect was that he didn't even pass the first round of this Qi Refining competition, and was directly defeated in the defender battle in the final stage of the elimination match just now.

And Liu Yuan on the side, although he luckily advanced in the first round of elimination matches in Ziyan Prefecture and obtained the qualification to head to the commandery city to participate in the second round of elimination matches, he was also hit hard at this time, losing his previous confidence.

Looking at Li Lan, who was dejected and had a trace of unwillingness in his eyes, Liu Liu Laosan shook his head slightly and comforted: "This is not your fault, you have already done very well, no need to blame yourself."

Although Li Lan was defeated in the first round of elimination matches and did not reach Liu Liu Laosan's previous expectation of making it into the final competition, Liu Liu Laosan did not have any dissatisfaction.

Because before this, not only was Li Lan too arrogant, but he, Liu Liu Laosan, was also sitting in a well and looking at the sky, underestimating the strong experts of the younger generation in the Star Fall Continent.

Thinking that by relying on the mid-stage Qi Refining Realm cultivation bases of Li Lan and Liu Yuan, they would have a chance to enter the final competition of this Qi Refining Realm competition.

But this time, just the mid-stage Qi Refining Realm cultivators eliminated in the first round of Ziyan Prefecture were fully several dozen people.

Even Liu Yuan, if it weren't for the fact that he relied on the perfected low-level spell Clear Wind Sword Art to win by a narrow margin and defeat his opponent at the last moment, I'm afraid he would have already failed to advance in the first round of elimination matches.

This was also the main reason why Liu Yuan successfully advanced but was hit hard and his confidence was frustrated.

Liu Yuan was very suspicious of his own strength that barely advanced in the first round of elimination matches, did he really have a chance to make it into the final competition? Thinking of this, a look of confusion appeared in Liu Yuan's eyes.

On the contrary, those in Liu Family Village whose cultivation bases were at the early stage of Qi Refining and whose talent itself only had one or two-element spiritual root talent did not suffer too much of a blow.

Although they were eliminated, leading to low morale, they did not suffer a blow and fall into self-doubt.

After all, they themselves were at the very bottom of the cultivation world, had self-knowledge, and did not hold any hope of advancing for this Qi Refining Realm competition itself.

So compared to Liu Yuan and Li Lan who were full of confidence before, they were more adapted to this failure.

Liu Liu Laosan noticed the silent Liu Yuan with confusion in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Not to mention Li Lan and Liu Yuan, after seeing the overall strength of the younger generation in the Star Fall Continent, how could Liu Liu Laosan himself not feel frustrated? The figure whose cultivation base had already reached the seventh layer of Qi Refining that appeared in the first round of elimination matches in Ziyan Prefecture surfaced in his mind, and a bitter taste flowed in Liu Liu Laosan's heart.

He had cultivated hard for most of his life, only to be caught up by others in less than ten years of cultivation time.

Comparing people to people, it really can make people angry to death.

Although he himself was also hit hard, Liu Liu Laosan, looking at the silent Liu Yuan, still opened his mouth to enlighten:

"Liu Yuan, you don't need to question yourself, you and Li Lan can break through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining at this age, which has already surpassed many people."

"This time, it is the Village Chief's fault, it is I who underestimated the younger generation of cultivators in the entire Star Fall Continent."

"However, by taking advantage of this competition to let you recognize your strength among the younger generation in advance, it may not be a bad thing."

"What's more, now that we are in a great era of cultivation, as long as you persist in your cultivation, in the future, you may not necessarily be unable to catch up from behind and surpass the current leading opponents in one fell swoop."

After speaking, Liu Liu Laosan looked at Liu Yuan and Li Lan with slight encouragement.

And hearing the last sentence of Liu Liu Laosan, the two bodies shook slightly, shaking off the negative emotions.

After taking a deep breath, the two looked bright and energetic, and said in unison:

"Village Chief, we won't let you down."

Seeing this, Liu Liu Laosan suddenly laughed loudly, very satisfied:

"Good, hahaha, you can shake off the blow suffered this time, the Village Chief is already satisfied."

In fact, Liu Liu Laosan didn't deceive Liu Yuan and Li Lan, after their cultivation bases were improved and they had the qualification to enter the Green Demon Realm to hunt, they indeed had the opportunity to surpass others.

It was just that Liu Yuan and Li Lan didn't know how slim the opportunity to obtain this so-called opportunity was.

His gaze flickered slightly, Liu Liu Laosan looked at Liu Yuan and continued:

"Liu Yuan, this time you successfully advanced, the Village Chief and the participants of Liu Family Village will follow you to head to the commandery city to participate in the second round of elimination matches. In this second round of elimination matches, you don't need to think about making it into the final competition, just do your best."

"In the contention among the same generation, if you can find your own flaws and make up for them, that is the biggest harvest of your trip."

Hearing Liu Liu Laosan's words, Liu Yuan subconsciously clenched his fists, nodded fiercely and said:

"Yes, Village Chief, I know."

Subsequently, Liu Liu Laosan took the group from Liu Family Village to wait in Ziyan Prefecture City for the strong experts of Dongxuan City to lead them to head to the commandery city to participate in the second round of elimination matches.

In fact, it was not just Liu Liu Laosan's group.

After the first round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition in the Star Fall Continent ended this time, the strength shown by the many new generations in the Star Fall Continent shocked quite a few older generation cultivators in the Star Fall Continent.

Before the competition, they knew that there were special cases of "geniuses" in the cultivation world, but they didn't expect that there would be so many "geniuses" in their eyes.

However, this was also normal.

After all, before Ye Ye Qingxuan unified the Star Fall Continent and held the Qi Refining Realm cultivator competition for the entire Star Fall Continent, the vast majority of cultivators in the Star Fall Continent only focused on their own one-acre-three-cent land, and had very little understanding of the new generation of the entire Star Fall Continent.

Even some cultivators were too busy with their own cultivation, how could they have time to pay attention to the juniors who had nothing to do with them.

Now Ye Ye Qingxuan gathered the vast majority of the new generation of cultivators in the Star Fall Continent and held a Qi Refining Realm competition that affected the entire Star Fall Continent, which was equivalent to directly exposing the new generation of cultivators in the Star Fall Continent to everyone's eyes.

In this way, it naturally broke the limited understanding of many people about the new generation of cultivators in the Star Fall Continent before, making them fall into self-doubt.

One day later, the first round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition in all three hundred-plus prefectures of the Star Fall Continent had successfully ended.

Under the jurisdiction of Dongxuan City's strong experts, the ten Qi Refining Realm cultivators who won in each prefecture rushed toward the commandery cities they belonged to one after another.

Among the three thousand-plus new generation cultivators who advanced to the second round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition, all were cultivators above the early stage of Qi Refining.

Besides the participants in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, there were nearly two hundred strong experts whose cultivation bases had already reached the late stage of Qi Refining, or even the peak of Qi Refining.

The cultivation base exposed by the new generation of the Star Fall Continent shocked quite a few people, and also attracted quite a few gazes.

"So there were such geniuses in our Star Fall Continent? Cultivated to the peak of Qi Refining Realm in less than ten years? I was sitting in a well and looking at the sky before."

"Interesting, interesting, even new generation experts at the peak of Qi Refining Realm have appeared, as expected of a new generation competition within the scope of the entire Star Fall Continent."

"Qi Refining Realm competition? Star Fall Continent new generation? Or should it be called the new generation of cultivators of Dongxuan City, which is more appropriate? Sigh, if I had known, I should have directly joined Dongxuan City..." "This Dongxuan City is indeed a good method, gathering the young generation of cultivators of the entire Star Fall Continent, if this continues, how deep will the foundation accumulated by Dongxuan City be in a thousand or a hundred years?" "It's just that without the wormhole passage, can the development speed of Dongxuan City, which is huddled in the Star Fall Continent, really keep up with the forces in other major provinces?"

Some Dongxuan City cultivators, casual cultivators, and even some spies specifically left behind by other forces when they withdrew from the Star Fall Continent, who were not interested in the first Qi Refining Realm competition in the Star Fall Continent before.

After the information about the first round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition was spread, they all had various strange gazes toward the Qi Refining Realm new generation competition held by Dongxuan City.

Quite a few casual cultivators in the Star Fall Continent and spies left behind by other forces had already set off one after another, preparing to head to the commandery city nearest to them, preparing to watch the second round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition.

After the information regarding the first round of the elimination tournament for the Qi Refining Realm Grand Competition spread, people began to view the Qi Refining Realm new generation Grand Competition held by Dongxuan City with all sorts of strange gazes.

It was just that these Dongxuan City cultivators, although they had already come out of seclusion, did not intend to head to other commandery cities, but were waiting in Dongxuan City for the arrival of the final competition of the Qi Refining Realm competition.

As low-order cultivators of Dongxuan City, although their strength was not strong, they had a sense of superiority brought by Dongxuan City.

Only the Qi Refining Realm cultivators who passed the elimination matches and came to Dongxuan City to participate in the final competition were qualified to let them come out of seclusion to witness the duel between the new generation of Qi Refining Realm.

With the passage of time, the second round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition on the battle platforms outside the twenty commandery cities of the Star Fall Continent was in full swing.

The competition system for this second round of elimination matches for the Qi Refining Realm competition was different from the first round of elimination matches.

Although there were fully three thousand-plus cultivators who advanced to the second round of elimination matches, when averaged out to twenty commandery cities, each commandery only had less than two hundred people.

In order to select true strong experts to head to Dongxuan City to participate in the final competition, this second round of elimination matches was much more rigorous.

Although it was also randomly one-on-one duels at the beginning, the winner advances.

But the loser would not be directly eliminated, and in the loser group, there would again be random one-on-one duels.

If one loses two matches, one is directly eliminated.

If one wins three matches in a row in the loser group, one can again enter the winner group to participate in the competition.

This cycle continues until the strongest ten people are decided, and then these ten people will conduct one-on-one duels one after another.

The winner gets one point, the loser does not deduct points.

Finally, the cultivators ranked in the top five in points can obtain the opportunity to head to Dongxuan City to participate in the final competition.

However, because there were many rounds of battles in the cycle, this second round of elimination matches would last for about half a month.

For fully half a month, the cultivators in the second round of elimination matches conducted battle after battle, and quite a few new generation strong experts made certain breakthroughs in cultivation base or spells during the battle process.

After rounds of battles, Liu Yuan of Liu Family Village had long been eliminated, and was now watching the duels of other cultivators under the stage with the people of Liu Family Village.

Although he failed to advance to the final competition, Liu Yuan's harvest on this trip was not small.

I believe that after returning, whether it was his cultivation base or spells, he could have certain improvements.

Besides this, in other commandery cities.

New generation strong experts such as Shi Huang from Stone Village, Yuan Yuan Qingcheng from Yuanqing Prefecture City, Li Taibai from Taibai Prefecture City, Wang Teng from Taiyuan Commandery City, Xiao Xiao Yuexian from Liyan Commandery City, etc.

In the elimination matches of their respective commandery cities, they swept away one strong expert after another.

Half a month later, when the second round of elimination matches ended, among them were those who maintained a full winning record, and those who lost one or two matches by a narrow margin.

But without exception, they all obtained the qualification to head to Dongxuan City to participate in the final competition of the Qi Refining Realm competition.

On the open-air battle platform outside Taiyuan Commandery City, Shi Huang stood on the stage somewhat disheveled with bare hands, and at this time, his spiritual power was exhausted and he was powerless to fight again.

"In the last match, Yue Yue Xiling wins."

"Our Taiyuan Commandery City elimination match officially ends, those who obtained the qualification to head to Dongxuan City to participate in the final competition are: Taiyuan Commandery City·Yue Yue Xiling, Taiyuan Commandery City·Zi Dutian, Xueyou Prefecture·Leng Ren, Diyuan Prefecture·Zhang Zhang Xinghao, Stone Village·Shi Huang!"

Now the villages, small towns, and cities in the Star Fall Continent were all directly under Dongxuan City, so whether it was Stone Village, or between prefecture cities and commandery cities, there was no distinction between superior and inferior.

So in this Qi Refining Realm competition, the participating players all used the village, town, or city they came from as a prefix.

Hearing the final announced voice, Shi Huang felt relieved in his heart, and at the same time, looked at the graceful figure not far away with slight bitterness.

In the elimination match of Taiyuan Commandery City, although his cultivation base had broken through to the eighth layer of Qi Refining, he still lost two matches.

The first match was before his cultivation base broke through, he lost to Xueyou Prefecture·Leng Ren.

The second match was after his cultivation base broke through, he finally lost to Taiyuan Commandery City·Yue Yue Xiling.

Taking a deep breath, the slight bitterness in Shi Huang's heart instantly dissipated, and his gaze returned to the initial calm.

It was just a mere Qi Refining Realm competition.

And in the elimination match of Taiyuan Prefecture City, he was the youngest.

Give him time, he would naturally surpass all strong enemies.

Huoyuan Commandery.

Yuan Yuan Qingcheng's exquisite face was expressionless, holding a long spear and scanning the participating players of Huoyuan Commandery, a sense of pride rising in her heart.

No other reason, just because she obtained a full winning record in the elimination match of Huoyuan Commandery.

There was not a single participating player in the entire Huoyuan Commandery who was worth her all-out battle, so she easily obtained the qualification to head to Dongxuan City to participate in the final competition.

For the first place in this new generation Qi Refining competition, she was determined to win.

Taiyuan Commandery City.

Wang Teng stared gloomily at the figure holding a long sword who was dealing with the enemy in a light and breezy manner on the battle platform, a trace of haze flowing in his eyes.

He, who regarded the first place in the final competition of the Qi Refining competition as something in his pocket, actually lost in the second round of elimination matches.

And the person who defeated him was currently conducting the last match of the second round of elimination matches on the battle platform.

Nangong Ji from Lord Nan Yu Prefecture, a pure sword cultivator.
