Immortality Cultivation Era Chapter 151 Defend And Contend

Gao Ge sits with his cla.s.smates. The training field becomes a sea of people.

Actually, this time not all the students are required to take part in the contest. The students join the contest on a voluntary basis. Gao Ge also signs up for the contest while all his cla.s.smates don't, except Li Long.

The biggest problem of No. 8 Cla.s.s Chaos is not that the students are not capable enough but that they are not positive enough. After entering the Academy and being a.s.signed to No. 8 Cla.s.s Chaos, they have been mentally struck, who believe that their apt.i.tude is so poor. Hence, they don't even have the courage to sign up for the contest. In Gao Ge's eyes, it will directly affect their zest for Taoism on the road of cultivation, which is actually a very terrible thing.

Gao Ge believes that the problem is quite serious.

However, there is nothing he can do about it. They must adjust their psychological state themselves.

Not for a while, Yue Xincheng and Meng Jing arrive.

"Boss, who is your opponent?"

Gao Ge takes a look at him and shakes his head, saying, "I don't know for now."

Yue Xincheng and Meng Jing also sign up for the contest. Only Xia Lu doesn't join the contest.

Xia Lu hasn't been very well since she came back from the tube-shaped apartment building. Although her soul has been nourished by Gao Ge's power of stars as well as the herbs from the Cultivation Academy, it will take her a long time to recover her damaged soul. At least one month will be needed. Within the one month, what Xia Lu needs to do is to have a good rest and get healed. She believes that there are very few students in the Academy who are capable enough to compete with her, but Gao Ge and her other friends still stop her from joining the contest.

After all, Xia Lu has been in Cla.s.s Heaven, so there is no need for her to demonstrate her capability.

Meng Jing sits beside Gao Ge so Li Long and other students make some room for her.

"Do you really want to join the contest?" Gao Ge asks.

Meng Jing nods her head heavily and meanwhile holds Gao Ge's hand.

Gao Ge laughs and doesn't stop her.

Since Meng Jing entered the Cultivation Academy, she has made rapid progress in cultivation with hard work. Even Meng Fang often compliments her on her good talent.

Therefore, as to Meng Jing, now she must partic.i.p.ate in more practical battles so that she can elevate her cultivation level.

Right then, Liu Zhongyi suddenly comes over in a hurry, who looks rather serious.

He doesn't feel surprised after seeing Meng Jing and Yue Xincheng. After all, Gao Ge is close to them, which he has already known.

"Gao Ge, the contest is a bit different from before this time. You must be well prepared." Liu Zhongyi looks a bit stern with a frown.

Gao Ge is dumbfounded and can't help asking, "Mr. Liu, how is it different from before?"

Liu Zhongyi coughs and says slowly, "The previous contests adopt the compet.i.tion system of drawing lots but this time the contest will be held in the way of defending & contending."

"Defending & contending?" Gao Ge gets confused and fails to understand.

Meng Jing, Yue Xincheng and the rest of the students are also rather perplexed.

Liu Zhongyi says with a bitter smile, "It's like wheel war. By calling the names in due order, the one who is called stands on the stage first and then an opponent will be selected randomly. The first one is the defender and the second one is the contender. The loser will be eliminated while the winner will stand on the stage to wait for the next contender's challenge until he loses."

Gao Ge takes a deep breath.

He frowns and asks, "Mr. Liu, how many contestants are there this time?"

"500."

"500?" Gao Ge asks, "If the first one is the most capable one among all the students in the Academy, he can never stand being challenged by 500 people!"

"Yes. Thus, it depends on mere luck. The first one who is called is the unluckiest one." Liu Zhongyi says with a bitter smile.

Gao Ge is completely muddleheaded.

The contest system is rather unscientific!

Yue Xincheng says grinningly, "It's no big deal. After all, we are always lucky."

"Yeah, you are so lucky. The first time when you executed the task of the Dragon Court, you encountered the Ghost Sect then." Gao Ge says impatiently.

Hearing what Gao Ge said, Yue Xincheng becomes perturbed.

"Actually, it is not as bad as you imagine." Liu Zhongyi says smilingly.

"Oh yeah?"

"The judges, who are the teachers and the members of the Dragon Court, are not fools. It is impossible that they don't realize what you just mentioned. They just believe that by doing so time can be saved. They will take various factors into consideration and give the most impartial score."

Gao Ge takes a tumble and feels a bit relieved.

According to Liu Zhongyi, such a way of compet.i.tion is okay anyway.

As long as the judges are sane, there shouldn't be any injustice then.

"Mr. Liu, is weapon allowed in the contest?" Yue Xincheng asks.

Liu Zhongyi looks at Yue Xincheng and says out of surprise, "Didn't your teacher tell you that?"

"Ahem, I was in a daze…" Yue Xincheng says, "Moreover, I often skip cla.s.ses."

Liu Zhongyi finds it both funny and annoying, saying, "Weapon is allowed in the contest. After all, some students major in swordsmans.h.i.+p. If weapon is forbidden, it will be extremely unfair to them. Nevertheless, even if they are allowed to use weapons, they cannot kill their opponents. Otherwise, they will be expelled out of the Academy. More seriously, they will be directly killed. In this case, it may be unfair to some students who practice martial arts. After all, as cultivators of martial arts, they are supposed to take down their opponents with one strike. The Academy and the Dragon Court also take that into consideration. Hence, teachers or the masters from the Dragon Court will do something about it at a critical moment. As long as the result of the contest comes out, it will be enough."

Yue Xincheng feels increasingly confused as he listens to Liu Zhongyi.

Right then, the gong is being beaten.

Standing in the center of the stage, Meng Fang coughs and looks at the name list, who appears a bit hesitant. He raises his head to look at Gongsun Moyang and the members of the Dragon Court, calling the first name.

"The first defender, Gao Ge!"

Gao Ge is dumbfounded at the moment.

Holy sh*t…

How come he is so unlucky?

Liu Zhongyi and others are rather stunned.

"What a coincidence!"

"It's not like that. No matter who is first called, everyone will feel it is so coincidental."

Some start to gossip.

Gao Ge takes a deep breath and steps on the stage slowly.

Gongsun Moyang looks at the middle-aged man from the Dragon Court, saying, "Why do you do this? Obviously, Gao Ge has been taken as a target…"

The middle-aged man takes a sip of the tea and laughs, saying, "I just want to see his real capability and what his hopeless situation is like. I think the one who is highly valued by you, Mr. Lou and Xiao Linran must not be too bad. Moreover, I have a feeling that this boy has a big secret behind him."

"A big secret?"

The middle-aged man nods his head, saying, "Don't tell me that you don't know he survived the exploration to the secret realm of Mount Duanlong. Everyone who has walked out of the secret realm of Mount Duanlong has gained great benefits, such as Yue Xincheng, who have opened more than 30 martial meridians. What about Gao Ge? He opened only one or two martial meridians. Don't you feel it very strange?"

Gongsun Moyang hasn't thought of that before but now he has realized one thing.

Maybe when Gao Ge walked out of Mount Duanlong, he has been watched by the Dragon Court.

And the reason why Tang Jiusi has been so close to Gao Ge may be that he has been ordered by his seniors.

Gao Ge standing on the stage looks at the other students.

They all stare at Gao Ge with sympathy or disdain.

The first one who steps on the stage must have done a lot of bad things in his previous life.
