Chapter 227 The strong men of the Han EmpireChapter 227 The strong men of the Han Empire

There is a huge difference in the difficulty of fighting between smart and unsmart opponents, so this combatant now chooses to rest, which is also expected by onlookers like Lu Bu.

Half an hour later, in the nineteenth round, against a seventh-level Domain Lord-level opponent, the participants won the battle without any injuries, and then chose to rest for half an hour again.

Game 20, win! Game 21, win! In the twenty-second game, this combatant was injured for the first time, but he still won in the end. In the twenty-third game, he won! In the twenty-fourth game, after being injured again, the participant decisively chose to give up and continue the challenge.

For these lower-ranked participants, there is not much psychological pressure to give up the challenge. Anyway, even if they continue to fight desperately, they have no hope of getting the final spot. During the trial, survival is of course the most important thing.

The ones who will really suffer heavy casualties are those participants who are ranked high, because they still have hope of getting a spot through the finals, so they naturally have to fight to the death.

”Unexpectedly, all 27 Domain Lord-level opponents have not been defeated. This participant is a little conservative.” Sun Ce commented carelessly.

”Bo Fu, don’t be careless. Those opponents are not weak, at least they are much stronger than the virtual Domain Lord level seventh and eighth levels in our preliminaries, and the strength of the participant is not necessarily much weaker than us. After all, it was only thanks to Marquis Wen that we were able to achieve our current ranking in the qualifiers.” Zhou Yu warned solemnly.

”Okay, okay, I’ll be careful.” Sun Ce said he would be careful, but Zhou Yu knew that he didn’t actually hear it in his heart. However, it was still early before they went up for the trial, so Zhou Yu didn’t say anything in a hurry. .

”It takes less than five hours. At this rate, at least four participants can complete the trial in one day.” Zhao Yun looked at the time and said.

”Those at the bottom of the rankings are estimated to have about this time, but for those at the front, five hours is probably not enough.” Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

”That’s true, but most people should be able to complete their life and death trial within ten hours.” Zhao Yun nodded.

……

Time passed, and each participant entered the ring one after another to undergo their own life and death trials.

Although most of the participants in the lower rankings chose to save their lives and gave up the challenge in time, there were also some who were stubborn or conceited and thought that the qualifiers were unfair and they did not show their full strength. In addition, there are some unlucky ones who encounter opponents who hide a lot of strength.

In short, as the life and death trials continue, from time to time there will be situations where participants die in the ring.

As more and more participants completed the life and death trials, the names on the huge standings also changed one after another.

Among the seven people in the Han Empire, Zhang Liao was slightly weaker. Even with Lu Bu’s help, he was only ranked 568th. Soon, it was time for him to play.

”Wenyuan, come on!” Lu Bu smiled and punched Zhang Liao’s chest with his fist, and then warned him again, ”Remember, be careful, you only have one life, the priority is to save your life.”

”Yes, I know.” Zhang Liao nodded and flew directly to the entrance of the ring.

”What level do you think Wenyuan can reach the most?” Sun Ce asked curiously, looking at Zhang Liao’s back.

”The ninth level of Domain Lord level, the second or third opponent.” Zhuge Liang said after a while.

The trial of life and death has progressed so far. In all the 1008 small arenas, not a single participant has defeated a realm lord-level opponent. The best result is to kill all realm lord-level opponents, and Zhang Liao’s strength cannot actually support him. With his current ranking, he is definitely no match for the World Lord level.

……

The battle between the top experts set off huge waves in every country in the universe, attracting the attention of countless people.

And now the final battle of 1008 Universe Kingdom, of course, has countless people in Universe Kingdom anxiously looking forward to it. Fortunately, like the qualifiers, this life and death trial is also publicly broadcast to all Universe Kingdoms, and people can freely choose which arena to watch. Of course, the vast majority of people would choose to watch the arena of their own universe country.

”Look, our Ganwu Universe Kingdom has another participant in the war. Zhang Liao, he looks so cool. Maybe he can enter the top one thousand in the rankings.”

At the same time as the 1008 small arenas, there is also a live broadcast of the points ranking list, which is updated in real time. However, it is a pity that among the top in the rankings, there is not a single participant from Ganwu Universe Country.

Although those who have entered the rankings now have almost no hope of staying until the final ranking, as long as they can be on the rankings once, it is enough to be famous for a while.

”There were quite a few people who were on the list before, but unfortunately they were pushed off after only a few days.”

”No matter what, Lu Bu, the ’God of War’ of our Witch Universe Kingdom, will definitely appear on the final ranking list, and he will definitely be at the top. He may be number one in the entire universe.”

”He must be the best in the universe. My second aunt’s third cousin’s neighbor’s niece works in the palace. I heard that great kings have praised Lord Lu Bu’s strength and said that he will definitely be able to win this time for our Ganwu Universe Kingdom. The best in the universe due to the battle between the top experts.”

Throughout the Ganwu Universe, there are hundreds of millions of galaxies, and when countless people talk about the rankings of the strongest battles, they always mention Lu Bu from time to time. His performance in the qualifiers is really eye-catching.

……

A spaceship was suspended above the large arena surrounded by 1008 small arenas. 1008 immortal beings sat together, watching the battles going on in the arenas below, laughing and talking to each other.

”Look at that little guy, he has good movement skills, but his attack power is a bit lacking.”

”Haha... That little guy over there is pretty good too, the one over there in the Ancient Universe Country.”

A group of powerful immortals are commenting on some of their seemingly good geniuses. Although it is almost impossible for these participants in the life-and-death trial to get the final spot, the geniuses who are not favored by the giant ax fighting field, These cosmic countries still take it very seriously.

This is why the Giant Ax Arena only needs a thousand of the strongest geniuses to be absorbed into the core layer, but more than a million of them have been summoned for the final battle, in order to screen the geniuses of the major cosmic nations. After all, The cosmic kingdom is the cornerstone of the human race.

……

”We still lost. The ninth-level Domain Lord in the 27th level is really a bit abnormal in strength. I even doubt that he can beat the weaker World Lord.” Zhang Liao returned to the spectator seat with some frustration. Covered in blood.

”The opponent you just fought should have hidden something when evaluating the combat effectiveness in the Giant Ax Arena. The combat effectiveness he showed when he fought you just now was obviously much better than the opponents fought by others.” Lu Bu commented objectively. .

”Alas! In fact, I also know that even if you are an opponent of normal strength, I will most likely not be able to defeat you.” Zhang Liao sighed, and then said with relief, ”I can’t do it anymore. The glory of the Han Empire depends on you. ”

”Haha... Just wait and see. Although I am not sure about the realm lord level opponents, I will definitely win the three ninth level realm lord level opponents.” Sun Ce said excitedly with a fighting spirit on his face.

Among the seven members of the Han Empire, after Zhang Liao, it was his turn to play.

Dozens of days later, Sun Ce began his life-and-death trial, and the result was without any surprises. He defeated the three ninth-level Domain Lord-level opponents. However, facing the first-level World Lord-level opponent, he failed ten times in a row. He couldn’t hold on even with the move, so he hurriedly stopped the trial, otherwise he might not even be able to save his life.

Except for Zhang Liao and Sun Ce, the other five people in the Han Empire who have obtained quotas are all ranked in the top 100 of the Universe Kingdom.

After dozens of days, finally, the life and death trials of the major cosmic nations have basically begun to come to an end. It is also the most important moment. The top 100 participants in the pre-selection begin to appear one by one. Due to the format of the qualifiers, some powerful participants only ranked in the top 100 during the qualifiers, and then lost their place directly afterwards. Therefore, there were several among the top 100 participants who won the final places. Being strong is normal.

Soon, in the arena of Ganwu Universe Kingdom, it was the third player of the Han Empire to take the stage - Guan Yu, who was ranked 92nd in the preliminary selection.

Guan Yu, the Territory Lord-level opponent in front of him, raised his sword and directly beheaded the opponent. His arrogance made the people of Ganwu Universe Kingdom who were watching the broadcast scream and scream.

In the ring, after half an hour’s rest, Guan Yu was about to face his first first-level World Lord level opponent.

Soon, a thin alien life that looked a bit like a weasel appeared at the other end of the ring.

”boom!”

As soon as he appeared, the thin alien suddenly burst out with momentum and rushed towards Guan Yu.

Guan Yu didn’t panic when he saw this, Danfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, dragged the Qinglong Yanyue Sword backwards in his hand, and rushed towards the opponent.

”clang!”

The first move is equally divided between the two.

”boom!”

Guan Yu then slashed out with his second sword, and the alien world leader on the opposite side hurriedly took the move and was directly blasted away.

Guan Yu immediately accelerated his pursuit and slashed down with his third sword.

”Pfft!”

An owl’s head, with the sword energy attached to the blade, directly cut the alien world lord into countless pieces.

”Guan Yunchang’s Spring and Autumn Swordsmanship is a bit interesting.” Lu Bu commented in the stands, nodding.

”Yun Chang should be the first one to kill a world lord-level opponent.” Zhang Liao said and looked at the huge ranking list aside. Sure enough, the first line on it had changed to ’Guan Yu, Ganwu Universe’ country’.

……

Outside, Ganwu Universe Kingdom.

Countless people from the Ganwu Universe Kingdom cheered instantly, and the people from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire went crazy.

”Guan Yu! Guan Yu!”

”He belongs to our Black Dragon Mountain Empire.”

”The first participant to kill a world lord-level opponent was from our Black Dragon Mountain Empire.”

”Maybe Guan Yu can get the final spot.”

”Yes, so far, he is the only one who has successfully killed the World Lord. Maybe he can get a spot.”

On the spaceship in the center of the Giant Ax Arena, many immortal beings were also discussing Guan Yu, who had just shown his power.

But unlike the ignorance of the outside world, they know better what kind of strength is needed to really get the final spot.

”Bingyu, you guys are good at Guan Yu from the Wu Universe Kingdom. If I’m not mistaken, what he just used was his own secret technique, right?” said an immortal ape-man.

”Well, the fit is perfect. It must be a self-created secret method.” Another immortal also nodded.

”The cosmic level can create its own combat secrets that suit itself so well. It is very suitable for the giant axe fighting arena. Unfortunately... its strength is a little bit inferior.”

”It’s a bit of a pity, but as long as he doesn’t die and continues on his path, he can join the Giant Ax Arena through other channels in the future. After all, the Giant Ax Arena is not just a way to attract elites through battles between peak experts.”

”That’s right. As long as he is really talented enough, our human race will not bury him.”

……

In the ring, Guan Yu repeated his old tricks. Although his three swords failed to kill the second realm lord first-level opponent, he seriously injured the opponent. After a fierce battle, he successfully won.

Unfortunately, the third realm lord first-level opponent was obviously much stronger than the first two. Guan Yu struck him three times, and the opponent only suffered minor injuries, which did not affect his combat effectiveness at all. Seeing that Guan Yu could not win, he just He simply gave up and continued the challenge, and he was relatively injured in the life and death trial.

A few days later after Guan Yu, it was Zhou Yu’s turn to play.

The final result was slightly better than Guan Yu’s, and he successfully killed three first-level World Lord-level opponents.

At this time, many participants who had successfully killed World Lord-level opponents had appeared on the ranking list, and Guan Yu’s ranking had also dropped by nearly a hundred places.

As time went by, when Zhao Yun, who was ranked third in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom in the pre-selection, came on stage, the names of Guan Yu and Zhou Yu had disappeared from the top one thousand in the rankings.

During the preliminaries, several virtual world lord-level alien beings were so difficult to kill. Now in the life and death trial, there are so many talented and powerful people who can kill world lord-level opponents alone. Naturally, it is not because their strength has increased in such a short period of time. There was a big explosion.

In fact, if it is a normal World Lord level master, it is naturally not so easy to deal with it. However, these World Lord level aliens provided by the Giant Ax Arena for life and death trials are not in perfect condition, not to mention weapons and armor. , each one was weakened many times.

Facing these weakened Realm Lord-level alien races, Zhao Yun also showed great power and defeated nine Realm Lord-level opponents in a row. He had to give up the challenge at the first Realm Lord-level fourth level.

After Zhao Yun, there is Zhuge Liang, who ranked second in the preselection. His strength is now much stronger than Zhao Yun, and he chose to give up after killing eleven realm lord level opponents.

The speed difference between the life and death trials of the major cosmic nations is not very big. When Zhuge Liang completed the trial, nearly half of the cosmic nations had completed it, and there were only less than three people left in the other half.
