It was a strange feeling to hear others admire you along the way.
Lin Yun didn't know what to say, so he just smiled and listened.
Soon, they arrived at the preliminary competition venue.
Because it was the preliminary round, many of the rules of the competition were very casual.
There were a total of fifty rings.
When there were three hundred people, they would draw lots, and the two people with adjacent numbers would start fighting.
For example, number one would fight number two, and number three would fight number four.
As long as they had energy, after fighting once, a person could continue to draw lots, and they could fight up to ten times. In the end, the top three hundred and top one hundred rankings were determined by the number of victories and the time of each match.
If someone is unlucky and keeps meeting strong opponents in the preliminary rounds, it doesn't matter, there is a repechage later, where all the losers compete for some positions, the number of which is not fixed according to the situation of each session.
Those who pass the repechage can enter a certain ranking.
If they still fail in the repechage, then that person is either extremely unlucky, or their strength really cannot improve.
Those who are unlucky are generally not very strong, so this way, it will not miss some of the real strong players.
Soon, it was Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran's turn to draw lots.
It is worth mentioning that the young man named Jiang Wei was also among the 300 people in Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran's round of drawing lots.
That Jiang Wei waved his fist at Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran and gave a cold smile.
Obviously, he really hoped to draw lots with Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran.
However, although they were in the same round of drawing lots, there were a total of 300 people, and the probability of the three drawing lots together was really small.
In the end, none of the three encountered each other.
It was only the preliminary round, and the probability of encountering a strong opponent was also very small.
Lin Yun naturally had no problem with it. With his current strength, even the top strongmen at the pinnacle of the dark energy realm would not necessarily be his match, and ordinary martial artists under the age of 30 would naturally not be his match either.
After Lin Yun got onto the stage, he exchanged a few blows with his opponent and easily knocked him off the stage.
Originally, Lin Yun had wanted to exchange a few more blows with his opponent to see if he could gain some experience in sparring, but the opponent was really too weak. Lin Yun's battle with his opponent was like an adult bullying a three or four year old child, which was really not interesting.
There were 300 people, and there were a total of 150 battles.
There were only three rounds for the 50 stages.
The outcome of the battles between martial artists was also very quick.
The first round ended quickly, and in the second round, Zhang Haoran took to the stage.
The intermediate stage of Ming Jin is still not weak in the preliminary rounds. What's more, Zhang Haoran is not an ordinary intermediate stage of Ming Jin. He has reached this stage for three years, and Lin Yun feels that the martial arts skills the opponent has learned are also extraordinary, as is his proficiency. Although he is in the intermediate stage of Ming Jin, Lin Yun estimates that very few people in the intermediate stage of Ming Jin can be his opponent.
After twenty or thirty rounds, Zhang Haoran also defeated his opponent.
The third round started soon after, and coincidentally, the young man named Jiang Wei was queued up for the third round.
It seemed that seeing Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran both easily defeat their opponents, especially Lin Yun defeating his opponent with just two or three moves, made Jiang Wei very unhappy. Before going up on stage, he made a gesture of contempt at Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran again.
'This guy, I want to see how strong he is...'
Zhang Haoran said angrily when he saw this.
As it turned out, this Jiang Wei knew that Zhang Haoran was at the intermediate stage of Ming Jin, and yet he still dared to attack Zhang Haoran and Lin Yun, saying that they were at the intermediate stage of Ming Jin, and there was a reason for that.
With just one move, that Jiang Wei defeated his opponent.
Knocking out his opponent with one punch, such a clean and decisive KO caused many gasps from the audience.
'This guy, he's actually that powerful?'
Zhang Haoran was also slightly surprised when he saw this.
Because the fight was very short, he didn't get a good look at the opponent's realm.
Lin Yun, on the other hand, was very proficient in many martial arts techniques because of his strong martial arts foundation. There were countless techniques contained within, and almost as soon as the opponent made a move, he felt a sense of familiarity with these techniques. He knew what realm they belonged to, what speed and power they should have, and he even knew their weaknesses.
Therefore, he could easily tell that the opponent had reached the late stage of Ming Jin.
'He has reached the late stage of Ming Jin. If you encounter him, be careful...' Lin Yun thought for a moment and looked at Zhang Haoran and said.
'He is at the late stage of Ming Jin?' Zhang Haoran was also slightly surprised to see Lin Yun judge the opponent's realm.
The opponent only used one move to judge the opponent's realm... Zhang Haoran also looked more highly of this new friend.
Previously, Lin Yun's battle was also watched by him. He used only two or three moves to defeat his opponent. In his opinion, Lin Yun's strength, as he previously judged, was also not weak.
At the moment, Lin Yun's eye power further illustrates this point.
I think that Jiang Wei didn't react when he attacked Lin Yun earlier because Lin Yun knew the rule that no one was allowed to fight at the Martial Arts Tournament, or perhaps Lin Yun knew that the two bodyguards by his side would attack.
Zhang Haoran thought to himself.
Lin Yi and Lin Er, who were by Lin Yun's side, did not have the aura of a simulated master, but they had the strength of a master. Moreover, Lin Yun did not tell them to hide it deliberately, so if someone observed their every move carefully, they would find it extraordinary.
That Jiang Wei, who had KO'd his opponent with one punch, made a gesture of contempt towards Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran again after getting off the stage.
This made Zhang Haoran angry again and he said, 'This guy is so arrogant, just a few years older than us. When I meet him, I will definitely fight him and let him know how awesome I am...'
Lin Yun nodded slightly.
Although he had just reminded Zhang Haoran, even if Zhang Haoran fought with the opponent and the opponent's strength was really strong, he was not worried about Zhang Haoran's safety.
Now, his spiritual power has reached the third level.
Although he has not studied Level 3 hypnosis, he has studied Level 2 hypnosis. Coupled with his Level 3 spiritual power, he can easily hypnotise a dark energy martial artist, and if the opponent is a bright energy martial artist, then it will be even simpler.
If, in the ring, this Jiang Wei uses heavy hands against Zhang Haoran, he can interfere with the opponent at any time.
Neither Lin Yun nor Zhang Haoran's physical strength has been greatly depleted, and the two quickly participated in the second round of the draw.
That Jiang Wei KO'd his opponent with one move, and naturally his physical strength has not been greatly depleted either.
Soon, the 300 people gathered again and began drawing lots.
These 300 people included those who had won before, those who had lost before, and newcomers, so they gathered quickly.
It was also thanks to the speed with which Lin Yun and the other two had settled their fight that they were able to immediately catch up to the next round of drawing lots after their last draw, otherwise they would have had to wait for the next round.
Soon, the results of the draw came out, and the three of them still hadn't met together.
Similarly, Lin Yun went on the field first. This time, Lin Yun also exchanged two blows with his opponent, and after discovering that his opponent's strength was not high, he knocked his opponent off the field.
That Jiang Wei was also in the first round, and he also KO'd his opponent with one move.
Zhang Haoran was still in the second round. This time, his opponent was weaker. Although he was at the beginning of Ming Jin, his strength was not high among the beginning of Ming Jin. He only spent a few moves and knocked his opponent off the field.
'Lin Yi, we've both won two consecutive matches. According to the rules of previous years, as long as you win four games, you have a chance to make the top 300, and as long as you win six games, you have a chance to make the top 100. We're two games away, so we might be able to make the top 300...'
After the match, Zhang Haoran found Lin Yun and said happily.
