Chapter 3733 Top 100 Drawing Lots

Lingyun Sword Sect won, and Ye Bufan and the others returned to their seats under the gaze of thousands.

The competition continued, with only the tenth group stage remaining, and everything was uneventful compared to the previous match.

As seeded teams, Bixia Sect and the Wei Family swept the remaining eight small Sects, and the results were decided in a matter of breaths.

Seeing this, Wei Changsong burst into laughter, looking mockingly at Zhao Qinglian next to him.

"Elder Zhao, these small Sects still can't compare to our Great Families; the strength gap is too wide. They can't even lose if they wanted to."

At this point, he couldn't help but laugh again, "My apologies, I forgot your Zhao Family has already been eliminated.

But it doesn't matter; you can come cheer for our Wei Family in a few days!"

The two had always been on bad terms, so he mocked without reservation, completely unrestrained.

If it were in the past, Zhao Qinglian would have retorted, but today's situation was too special.

Among the Three Sects, Five Factions, and Seven Great Families, only they were eliminated. What face did he have to argue with others?

This made his hatred for Ye Bufan even more intense, his face so gloomy it seemed water would drip from it. He snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Normally, although the competition was over, there were still some matters to arrange, and as the Grand Elder of the Zhao Family, he shouldn't leave early.

But there was no choice; if he stayed there to continue being a spectator, it would only be a mockery, and besides, Wei Changsong next to him might say something else.

So Zhao Qinglian decisively chose to leave, taking the Zhao Family members away in utter disarray.

The Zhao Family was completely out, not even having the qualification to participate in the Hundred Champions Competition, so whether they left or not made no significant difference.

Everything proceeded as planned, and Wu Huo Daojun immediately announced the twenty winning Sects.

Besides the Three Sects, Five Factions, and the remaining six Great Families, which made up fourteen major powers, six other Sects also emerged.

The other five were also quite strong, well-known in the Middle Heaven Region in their daily lives.

Only Lingyun Sword Sect was an obscure small Sect that many had never heard of, becoming the biggest dark horse of this competition.

However, the other Sects didn't pay much attention to it. In the eyes of countless people, Lingyun Sword Sect's emergence relied solely on Leng Qingqiu; the others were not worth considering.

This was also the effect of Ye Bufan playing the pig to eat the tiger. Previously, only Leng Qingqiu, an Immortal King Peak, went on stage, and he showed himself as a Great Luo Immortal.

And the remaining few were even more insignificant, only having the cultivation of a Great Supreme Immortal, completely out of place here.

Precisely because of this, in the upcoming Hundred Champions Competition allocation, countless people dreamed of being drawn with someone from Lingyun Sword Sect, as that would mean direct advancement to the next stage.

Wu Huo Daojun said, "Alright, I'll give each major Sect a quarter of an hour to submit the list of participants for the Hundred Champions Competition."

All of this was within expectations. Some Sects kept their strongest members for later, while others had people injured or fallen in the recent battles, so the list needed to be finalized at the very end.

The major Sects had already prepared their contingency plans, and the lists were submitted very quickly, soon reaching the viewing platform.

Lingyun Sword Sect submitted five names: Ye Bufan at the head, followed by Leng Qingqiu, Jin Mei'er, Situ Dianmo, and Xuan Yuan Linglong.

The subsequent drawing of lots became extremely simple: one hundred people had one hundred codes.

The person who drew number one hundred and number one would be in one group, and number ninety-nine and number two would be in another group.

Following this pattern, Disciple number fifty would battle number fifty-one, and the winner would advance to the next round.

The rules had already been announced to the leaders of each Sect, so the drawing of lots began immediately after the lists were submitted.

Because this was all random, no one could guarantee who their opponent would be, making cheating impossible.

Wu Huo Daojun waved his hand, and one hundred egg-sized spheres flew into the air, shining brightly under the powerful Immortal Essence that enveloped them, making it impossible for even Divine Sense to penetrate.

"Alright, the registered Disciples, draw your lots now."

The drawing of lots officially began, with figures flying out from the twenty qualifying Sects.

"Dongfang Daoyuan of Tiandao Sect greets you!"

With a clear voice, a figure soared into the air, being the first to grab a sphere.

This person had delicate features, a handsome and elegant demeanor, incredibly good-looking.

Although he wore a gray Daoist robe, it did not affect his appearance in the slightest; instead, he looked even more ethereal and graceful, exuding a serene and transcendent aura.

A chorus of exclamations immediately arose from the surroundings, not for anything else, but for the name Dongfang Daoyuan.

Almost no Immortal in the Middle Heaven Region was unaware that this was the number one Genius of Tiandao Sect, rumored to have reached the Immortal Lord realm three hundred years ago, and he had even won first place in the last Hundred Sects Tournament.

No one knew his cultivation level because, to this day, no one in the Hundred Champions Competition had been able to force him to reveal his full strength; he could only be described as unfathomable.

After him, another figure flew into the air: Xifeng Lie, the number one Genius of Guiyuan Sect.

Compared to Dongfang Daoyuan's outstanding appearance, he looked much plainer, but the aura emanating from him was extremely powerful.

After the two men was a slender woman in a plain dress, Ao Yue Fairy of Bixia Sect.

These three were all favored children of heaven, who had not appeared in the previous group stages. As soon as they showed themselves, they immediately drew waves of exclamations and cheers.

They each grabbed a sphere, removed the enveloping Immortal Essence, and revealed their respective numbers.

Dongfang Daoyuan was number twenty-two, Xifeng Lie was number fifty-three, and Ao Yue Fairy was number thirty-six.

The others let out gasps of surprise, and the participating Disciples secretly prayed that they wouldn't be drawn against these three, otherwise, they would be directly eliminated.

In the past few days, Ling Jianfeng had thoroughly familiarized himself with the Geniuses of the various participating teams and had given Ye Bufan a detailed introduction.

"Master, these are the three most powerful individuals among the Three Sects. It would be best if you don't encounter them."

Ye Bufan nodded slightly. Although he hadn't fought them yet, he could already sense the power of these three.

Subsequently, everyone drew their numbers, and the five members of Lingyun Sword Sect also leaped into the air.

Jin Mei'er was number eighty-six, drawing Li Yulang of Hehe Sword Sect, who had Immortal King Peak cultivation.

Situ Dianmo was number fifty-one, drawing Ge Changsheng of Five Elements Sword Sect, who had Early Stage Immortal Lord strength.

Xuan Yuan Linglong had much better luck, drawing a small Sect called Black Wind Valley, whose Disciple was named Lin Heita, only possessing Early Stage Immortal King strength.

Leng Qingqiu was number fifty-nine, drawing Qi Boliang, a Disciple of the Qi Family, with Early Stage Immortal Lord strength.

Ye Bufan was the last to appear, drawing number ninety-nine. His opponent was Han Lingduan, a Disciple of the Han Family, with Immortal King Peak strength.

Overall, the luck of this group's drawing was not bad; only Situ Dianmo was a bit worse, as with her current strength, she could not contend against an Immortal Lord-level expert.

"Alright, everyone, go back to prepare and rest. The competition will officially begin here three days from now at Chen Shi."

The schedule had already been set. After Wu Huo Daojun's announcement, everyone dispersed, returning to their respective residences to rest and adjust their condition.
