Chapter 2896 Just him

Yi Jifeng also achieved good results in last year's year-end assessment, but due to physical injuries, his strength has not improved much this year.

Strictly speaking, not this year, but over the years, his strength has not changed much.

Although many strong men did not participate this year, facing the current top sixteen disciples was still quite difficult for him.

"It's Yi Jifeng!"

Seeing Yi Jifeng stand up, someone whispered.

Although he is not too old, he is still an old man from Longwu Academy. After all, he became famous relatively early. It is a pity that He Guancang plotted against him, otherwise he would not be staying at Longqian Peak now.

Therefore, there are many people who know Yi Jifeng.

"Yi Jifeng, who do you want to challenge?"

Quan Rui looked at Yi Jifeng and asked.

Yi Jifeng looked at the center of Shuanglong Square.

There, the top sixteen disciples gathered, including Xu Zhiping, Ye Gui, Duan Xiaofei, and Wu Qian.

None of these sixteen people are easy to mess with.

Yi Jifeng's eyes swept across the sixteen people, looked at the last one, cupped his hands and said: "Junior Brother Luan, I challenge you!"

The disciple named Ranma nodded and flew into the transparent cube battlefield suspended above.

Yi Jifeng followed closely, and under the auspices of the deacon elder, the battle began.

This battle lasted for a long time before the winner was decided.

In the end, Yi Jifeng was slightly better, won, and got a place in the top 16.

However, Ranma is also very strong. Although he was defeated, he also seriously injured Yi Jifeng. I am afraid that in the subsequent battles, Yi Jifeng will not be able to exert his full strength, and he should be in the top sixteen.

Yi Jifeng is also very smart. The opponent he chose, Ranma, is ranked at the bottom of the matchup table. In other words, after he replaces Ranma, he will be the last to appear in the next sixteen-to-eight battle.

In this way, he still has some time to adjust his breath and recover.

Although it won't return to its peak state, it is still better than what it is now.

It is precisely because battles will cause injuries, so everyone wants to be at the top of the team battles. This can reduce the number of battles, avoid injuries, and reduce energy consumption.

After the battle between Yi Jifeng and Ranma ended, the disciples ranked fourth to tenth in points during other team battles continued to challenge.

But except for Yi Jifeng, who has real strength, the other members of Team 19 have no strength to enter the top 16. Therefore, the battles of other people all end in failure, and they all lose quickly. Their strength is not that of the top 16. The difference in strength is quite large.

In the end, among the seven, only Yi Jifeng succeeded in the challenge.

"These people were ranked in the top ten through Chen Yang's opportunistic methods. What's the use? They were simply defeated easily."

"They should be embarrassed when they get this opportunity."

Seeing that only Yi Jifeng succeeded in the challenge, everyone looked down upon the others.

What happens next is the battle between sixteen and eight.

The battle at this moment can be said to be a battle between the top experts. Every battle is very exciting and inextricable.

Some duels even lasted for a long time before the winner was determined by a narrow margin.

However, among everyone, there are still disciples with higher strength. Ye Gui, Wu Qian, Duan Xiaofei, and Xu Zhiping are all obviously stronger than others and belong to the first echelon.

Others can only be ranked in the second echelon.

Two days later, the top eight were decided.

In addition to Ye Gui, the other four are Yang Chang, Yu Huan, Hu Jingting, and Lu Zhi.

Although Yi Jifeng recovered somewhat from his injury, he still could not defeat his opponent. In the end, he unfortunately lost and failed to enter the quarterfinals.

"It's Chen Yang, Yu Lin and Chu Yu's turn to challenge the top eight senior brothers and sisters."

"Hmph, Chen Yang is about to show his weakness."

"Opportunism can help him get points, but it can't help him defeat his opponents."

"If you can get the fighting power of Deacon Quan by disguising yourself as Deacon Quan, then that's okay."

Everyone was chatting, their tone full of ridicule towards Chen Yang.

Quan Rui looked at Chen Yang and the others and said, "Now, you three, challenge the disciples among the top eight and make your own choices."

Chu Yu stood up, glanced at the top eight disciples, and found that all of them were very powerful and not so easy to mess with.

He calculated that even if he tried his best, he could not be their opponent.

If you force yourself to do it, you might get seriously injured, and the gain outweighs the loss.

After thinking for a while, Chu Yu said to Quan Rui: "Deacon Quan, I know that I am no match for the top eight senior brothers and sisters. I choose to give up the challenge and automatically fall into the ranking battle for the ninth to sixteenth place."

Hearing this, everyone looked surprised. They didn't expect Chu Yu to give up such a good opportunity.

Many people feel that if they were themselves, they would have to fight no matter what.

But some people think that Chu Yu's decision is correct. If he challenges his opponent when he is not strong enough, he is asking for trouble.

Seeing Chu Yu give up, Yu Lin, who was not as strong as Chu Yu, frowned and quickly said to Quan Rui: "Deacon Quan, I give up too."

"All right!"

Quan Rui nodded and agreed with their choice.

He turned to look at Chen Yang and asked, "Chen Yang, who do you choose to challenge?"

In Quan Rui's view, Chen Yang is not as good as Chu Yu and Yu Lin, and is naturally weaker than the two. Logically speaking, he will give up the challenge.

After all, the top eight are all extremely powerful. If Chen Yang chooses any of them, he will be defeated with one move. There is no need to embarrass himself.

Chen Yang walked out, and before he could speak in a hurry, someone in the crowd shouted: "You guy who is playing dirty tricks, if you have the ability, don't give up. Let us see how strong you are?"

"Yes, don't be a coward. If you can beat any senior brother or sister among the top eight, I will call you grandpa."

"Don't talk about grandpa. If he can win the challenge, I can call him ancestor."

"However, I'm afraid he doesn't have the courage to challenge, because he can't beat anyone."

…

Everyone was talking, all wanting to provoke Chen Yang into challenging him.

Little did they know that Chen Yang had already chosen his opponent.

"Quiet!"

Quan Rui shouted loudly, silencing the entire audience.

He looked at Chen Yang and said: "If you want to quit, there is nothing wrong. When your personal strength grows, you will still have a chance to perform in the annual end-of-year assessment."

It seemed that Quan Rui valued Chen Yang very much and actually took the initiative to enlighten Chen Yang.

"Thank you to Deacon Quan for your teachings. I already have a choice."

Chen Yang saluted Quan Rui, then looked at the top eight disciples standing in the center of Shuanglong Square, pointed at Xu Zhiping, and said: "No one else is needed, just him."
