eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng frowned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the fifth level [Heart Refining Level]?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It doesn't seem that difficult either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng was already confident, but he didn't point it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the causes and consequences, all the clues added together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A clear train of thought was already imprinted in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This flaw is huge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was well covered up by the person who formulated the tournament rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for Qin Feng having been influenced by various things in his previous life and advocating skepticism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I'm afraid he would have fallen into this simple trap now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng watched from the sidelines, deciding to see the choices of other players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hope there are a few smart people among them, otherwise I'm afraid I won't have any opponents in the finals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Qin Feng's light and breezy posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A considerable portion of the contestants appeared very anxious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of thing is difficult for smart people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The smarter a person is, the more self-proclaimed smart a person is, the easier it is to be trapped!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng chuckled in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He specifically looked at his own time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had almost instantly killed the guards in the first four levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each level had a 15-minute time limit, which means his full score should be 60 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a step back, he used 30 seconds to kill these guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then used 30 seconds here, so he still had 59 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These 59 minutes were enough for him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contestants on the field were anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Off the field, many experts were also worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Choose quickly, the shorter the time, the higher the ranking!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, just close your eyes and pick one, what's the point of standing here like a fool!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Son, pick the left, listen to your old man, the left!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Disciple, the right, intuition tells me the right is the path of survival!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big brother, pick the right, pick the right quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a mysterious space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of Saint-level experts were observing all this through the Heavenly Mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This group of Saint-level experts were not the experts participating in this tournament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because their auras were already so powerful that even Saint-level experts feared them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half-Super Saint level experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, only half a step away from Super Saint level experts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You guess, how many little guys can guess the correct path in the end?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe, this little trick of yours can only fool these brats who have just been weaned,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I bet, none of these kids can guess it right!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha, old friend, are you praising my design or mocking me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You guys are old, which one of you hasn't lived for hundreds of billions of years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still messing around here, sure enough, the older you get, the more childish you become.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm optimistic about that young man from the Beast Taming Academy, he should be able to see through it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think the young people from the four great families are also very good, they shouldn't be that stupid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm optimistic about the little guy from the Ten Thousand Stars Sect, their ancestor is a famous old slippery guy, the little slippery guy inherited the old slippery guy's mantle, he should also be able to see through it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm optimistic about that young man who uses cash power, he doesn't look simple at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These peerless Half-Super Saint level experts expressed their optimistic candidates one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the fifth level space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten minutes have passed, and no one has made a choice yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Should I say they are smart, or overly cautious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng shook his head secretly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the contestants also had disputes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The left, it must be the left!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The left, then what is your basis?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two whirlpools appeared at the same time, same size, same color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why do you think it's the left, and not the right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because I think the left looks pleasing to the eye, is that okay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think it's the right, because I also think the right looks pleasing to the eye!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, stop arguing, just pick whichever side looks pleasing to you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pick it then, who's afraid of who!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go, you pick the left, I pick the right, whoever doesn't go is a grandson!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Afraid of you, let's go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, these two experts, amidst the surrounding agitation, walked towards the whirlpool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the slowly rotating whirlpool...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two experts took a forced breath and rushed in!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, all the contestants looked at the whirlpool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To see what would happen to these two experts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this moment, the old man suddenly said: \"Number 14756, eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 25874, eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom, boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contestants all exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How is it possible, didn't it say there was a path of survival?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could both be eliminated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of logic is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man said faintly: \"The path of survival also has danger, but it won't be fatal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forfeiting in time can save your life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the dead end is definitely fatal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss, hiss, hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the old man's explanation, the contestants all gasped!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrible, simply terrible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dead end is one thing, but the path of survival is also so difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's just that compared to the dead end, the path of survival allows for timely forfeiture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some players even thought on the spot, since that's the case, why don't I just forfeit now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have a way.\" At this moment, a contestant spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's just that this way is very risky.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And it will greatly benefit the contestants behind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After he finished speaking, several experts immediately retorted: \"Hmph.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your method is nothing more than letting people test it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't choose both whirlpools at the same time, two people choose one of the left and right whirlpools at the same time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at the reaction of the whirlpool, and the time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If there is a difference, then you can find the path of survival.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If there really is a so-called path of survival.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His remarks were indeed admirable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But who would want to be a guinea pig for the experiment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, still no expert was willing to go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone's time was about the same, so let's just wait!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>10 minutes later, some experts couldn't stand this inner torment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They finally understood, [Heart Refining Level] is worthy of the name!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's truly tormenting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn't stand it, so they stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two experts were also characters, they specifically chose not to choose together but separately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was to deliberately not give other players a chance to exploit a bug!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The players who were looking forward to it were speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 5647, eliminated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 123691, eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliminated again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contestants' hearts went cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>15 minutes later, another batch of contestants walked out, and they flew towards the two whirlpools respectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliminated, eliminated, still eliminated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>20 minutes later, a large wave of contestants couldn't stand this anxiety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, it was the time limit, on the other hand, it was a dilemma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They rushed into the two whirlpools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result was no exception, eliminated, eliminated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>55 minutes had passed, which means all the contestants who chose,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had at most about 4 minutes left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they couldn't make a choice in 4 minutes, then they would all be eliminated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One by one, they are all self-proclaimed, how come they are all as cowardly as a lamp now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, isn't it just a choice, I'll close my eyes and pick!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go, there are 3 minutes left, no time, treat a dead horse as a living one!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time ever, the largest batch of contestants, about several thousand people, flew into the whirlpool one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this very moment, there were still a few hundred contestants who hadn't moved!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man's voice was indifferent and emotionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eliminated, eliminated, eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were 2 minutes left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the last 2 minutes, if you don't make a choice, you will be eliminated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng noticed at this time that a few gazes had been scanning him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those were experts of the primordial spirit lineage, experts of the physical body lineage, battle pet experts, and experts from the four great families!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was also an expert shrouded in faint mist, an honest-looking teacher, and an expert with agile and cunning eyes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are looking at me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be that they also figured it out!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng was not sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 1475 eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 547 eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 697 eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Number 58 eliminated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the contestants whose time was up were one by one dejectedly kicked out of the competition space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn't have the guts to choose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their time had already exceeded, so they could only be eliminated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at this moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, what are you waiting for, there is one minute left!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you really think you can beat that Pseudo-Saint level expert in one minute?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The honest-looking expert suddenly said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, everyone's expressions changed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng smiled, this layer of window paper was finally poked through by you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Feng blinked and arrived in front of the old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Game!
