Celestial being

Yuan Ming glanced towards the green water curtain and saw that the one hundred and twenty-eight islands participating in the competition were divided into sixteen groups, with each group having eight islands.

These eight islands are divided into groups of two, divided into four battle groups.

"The rules are still the same as in previous years. After three rounds of competition, each of the sixteen groups will determine a winner, who will be qualified to participate in the follow-up ceremony of the Fairy Fruit Club." The owner of Fuso Island announced loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the square immediately became commotion. From the many participating islands, some people were happy and cheered loudly, some were gloomy, and everyone was lamenting.

The emotional contrast is so great that it’s shocking.

Yuan Ming took a closer look and suddenly said with some doubts:

"Friend Bishui, the grouping of this competition seems to be biased. The twelve first-level islands are obviously stronger, but no two are grouped together. This means that the opponents they have to defeat are all second-level. The island has a surprisingly good chance of winning."

"Yuan Daoyou doesn't know. This is the custom of the top 16 competition of the Fairy Fruit Club. When dividing the groups, the top 16 of the previous session will not meet each other. Except for the twelve first-level islands, each of them is in a group. In addition, Hanjing Island, Wuyun Island, Blood Swallow Island and Golden Lotus Island, which won last year, are also in one group." Bi Shuirou frowned slightly and explained.

"Is this a preferential treatment for the previous winner? So, wouldn't it mean that most of the winners of every session are from these islands? Can you tolerate this?" Xiying said with a frown.

She didn't care whether this division method was fair or not, but she cared about why the other islands didn't resist?

"It's the first-level islands that make the rules. How can we, the second-level islands, resist? Not to mention, the second-level islands are full of scheming and scheming people. They are fighting overtly and covertly with each other. How can we unite and go together?" Fight?" Bishuirou said with a bitter smile.

After saying that, she sighed again: "We are not lucky this time, I am afraid we will miss the Fairy Fruit Meeting."

Among the groups divided by Hongzhi Island, there is one of the twelve first-class islands, Yehuo Island.

In his opinion, if he faced a second-level island, he could still give it a try, but against an upper-level island, it would be basically hopeless. After all, judging from past results, few second-level islands could successfully break through.

Hearing this, Xiying just smiled indifferently and didn't care at all.

"I see that Luoshan Island is also in the same group as us. I wonder if there is a chance to fight." Yuan Ming looked at the owner of Luo Island and said with interest.

"Although that fellow from Luo Wanshan is frivolous, Luoshan Island is not weak in strength. In the first round, they still have a greater chance of winning against Huang Qiu Island." Bishuirou said.

After that, she realized the meaning of Yuan Ming's words, with a smile on her face, and said: "If we have a chance to meet him in the next round, it would be good to teach him a lesson."

While the three of them were communicating here, the bearded Island Master Luo was already getting together with the Island Master Liulan on the side.

The latter has a thin figure and a mean look like a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.

"Island Master Liu, you are very lucky. You encountered Hongzhi Island in the first round, so you picked up a soft persimmon." Island Master Luo touched his chin and said with envy on his face.

"Island Master Luo's words are wrong. Bishui Rou, that girl's cultivation and beauty are the same. She is not weak at all." Liulan Island and Luoshan Island have always been colluding, and Island Master Liu and Island Master Luo also have a very close personal relationship.

When the two of them got together, they seemed to have the same chemistry.

"If she were weak, brother, I wouldn't have taken her down long ago. However, apart from her, there is no one else on Hongzhi Island who can take her down." Island Master Luo curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"That's true, but it looks like she brought two new faces this time. Maybe there are some changes?" Island Master Liu looked at Yuan Ming and Xi Ying from a distance and asked suspiciously.

"It's probably the help she invited, but I didn't expect it to be that great." Island Master Luo said with a smile.

"That's true." Island Master Liu nodded thoughtfully.

"This time we are in a group with Yehuo Island. There is no chance of getting that spot, but I have a merciless request, brother." Island Master Luo said.

"Those who want my people to severely damage Hongzhi Island?" Island Master Liu asked with a smirk on his face.

"If the person who fights on Hongzhi Island is not Bishuirou, I hope Brother Liu can severely damage her. If she fights in person, I also want Island Master Liu to be able to use this thing..." Island Master Luo smiled mysteriously, While turning his palm, he took out a small black bottle and handed it over quietly.

After Island Master Liu saw the bottle, his expression changed slightly, and then immediately returned to normal.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Silkworm Heart Gu you nursed, right?" Island Master Liu didn't take it immediately and asked via voice transmission.

"Yes, if she can be attacked, it will take as little as seven days or as long as half a month. After the Gu worms grow up, her mind will be eaten away by the Gu worms and she will become a puppet at my mercy..." Island Master Luo said halfway. He couldn't help but reveal a sinister smile.

"I can't help but pay for this...how should I calculate it?" Island Master Liu still didn't pick up the vial. He leaned back and asked.

"If Bishuirou is controlled by me, Hongzhi Island will be mine, right? I'm willing to give half of Hongzhi Island's resources to Brother Liu, how about that?" Island Master Luo said.

"I, Liulan Island, may not really appreciate Hongzhi Island's wealth. Luo Dao mainly wants to be sincere, so how about exchanging your treasured beast control skills?" Island Master Liu said with a smile. .

After hearing this, Island Master Luo frowned slightly unconsciously, but he did not refuse immediately, but advised:

"My beast control technique is just a fragment without a beginning or end, but it can still catch the eyes of Island Master Liu? If I really change it, won't Brother Liu suffer a huge loss?"

"As the saying goes, suffering is a blessing, let alone suffering from your brother Luo? Your own losses are not considered losses. Of course, if brother Luo is not so eager for that bitch Bishuirou, you can pretend that you have never mentioned this matter." Island Master Liu smiled casually, looking indifferent.

Island Master Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, cursed secretly in his heart, and said: "Since Island Master Liu sincerely wants it, I don't have to hide it. As long as you can successfully plant the Silkworm Heart Gu into Bi Shuirou's body, I will Just fulfill your request.”

"Brother Luo is so refreshing! Then it's settled." Island Master Liu immediately took the black vial and said with a happy face.

Xu Fu, the master of Fuso Island, gave everyone time to discuss their candidates for the first round. Seeing that the time was almost up, he announced loudly:

"The first round, the first competition, Songhe Island, against Hanjing Island."

As his words fell, ripples began to form on the calm lake in the center of the island, and circles of fine waves spread from the center of the lake to the surrounding areas.

Everyone felt the strange movement on the lake and moved their eyes there.

I saw the waves rolling in the center of the lake becoming more and more violent. A white jade platform with a radius of several tens of feet was slowly rising under the support of the waves, gradually rising several feet above the water surface.

As the platform stabilized, the waves gradually receded, and a snow-white martial arts stage appeared in the lake.

At this time, two figures who had been prepared flew up and landed on the martial arts stage.

The two people just clasped fists and saluted each other without announcing their names, and everyone could only tell which side they represented.

Then, Xu Fu gave an order, and the two of them immediately started taking action.

The one who fought on Songhe Island was a middle-aged bald man with a middle-stage cultivation level. He released a red flame blood crane spirit beast. It flew quickly and was covered in blood-red flames. It was very powerful.

However, his opponent, the young woman sent by Hanjing Island, although she was also a monk in the middle stage of pill formation, had obviously been immersed in it for many years and had reached the threshold of the later stage.

Her spirit beast is a cold-breaking turtle in the abyss of the East China Sea. It moves slowly but has amazing defense.

This turtle has an innate skill that can condense the cold air of the void and form an ice barrier around itself and its owner. No matter how fast the Red Flame Blood Crane is and continues to attack it, it can never break through.

After the battle lasted for more than half an hour, the Red Flame Blood Crane consumed a huge amount of its spiritual power. At this time, the Broken Cold Turtle suddenly burst out, its fierce aura suddenly erupted, and the ice barrier condensed outside suddenly shattered, and countless hexagonal shapes The ice crystals exploded in all directions, turning into countless flying blades that rolled in turbulence in all directions.

Hongyan Xuehe was caught off guard and was seriously injured. He and his master were thrown off the martial arts stage.

This first competition was not really exciting, and it aroused a round of boos from the excited onlookers.

However, the next few games were more exciting than the last. Several of the duels between the second-level islands were all back-and-forth and extremely lively, which greatly satisfied the viewing needs of the onlookers.

On the contrary, there were several battles between the first-level islands and the second-level islands, which made everyone very disappointed. Just because the strength gap between them was so big, not long after the battle started, the second-level islands were crushed and defeated.

"The next match will be between Hongzhi Island and Liulan Island." Xu Fu announced.

As soon as the words fell, Bishuirou stood up immediately. After nodding with Yuan Ming, they flew onto the martial arts stage in the middle of the lake.

"good……"

The surrounding audience suddenly burst into cheers.

They always praise beauties.

Seeing that it was Bi Shuirou who personally went to battle, Island Master Luo and Island Master Liu were slightly surprised, and they were completely surprised.

"I have a chance to control this bitch..."

"I can get Luo Wanshan's secret technique of controlling beasts..."

The two looked at each other and smiled, but they had their own thoughts in mind.

"Brother Liu, it's up to you." Island Master Luo sent a message to Island Master Liu with a smile in his eyes.

"Brother Luo, don't worry, just wait and see." Island Master Liu smiled and nodded imperceptibly at Island Master Luo.

Then he waved his hand to stop two of his own monks who had volunteered to fight. He got up from the crowd and flew straight to the martial arts stage, wanting to meet Bi Shuirou in person.
