"How can this be?!"

"Senior Chen, he was defeated."

Seeing this, the audience outside the light curtain suddenly burst into alarm.

One after another, eyes stared at Lin Hao in the light screen projection, with shock surging in his eyes.

Especially those from Kuangling Academy were stunned.

Obviously, it was quite unbelievable that Chen Zhen was eliminated in the first round.

"Yes, I have indeed grown a lot."

In the camp of Tianyan Academy, Ying Yuanzi nodded with relief, stroking his beard and smiling.

Immediately, he turned his eyes and looked at the other three light screen projections.

But they saw that Lei Meng, Qin Yu, and Gu Yunle had already ended the battle easily.

In this way, Lin Hao and his four brothers were able to successfully enter the next round of competition.

"Haha, is this not bad?"

Hearing Ying Yuanzi's praise, the bald old man from Jianyun Academy next to him clicked his tongue indifferently.

"It seems that Brother Ying's standards have dropped a lot in recent years."

The bald old man shook his head and sighed, then said with a deep smile: "It's a pity that you didn't see the battle of my apprentice 'Lu Chengtian' just now. That would be so exciting."

Hearing this, Ying Yuanzi looked indifferent, showing no emotion at all.

He has already had a lot of dealings with this old man who always likes to belittle others and elevate himself.

However, Ying Yuanzi could not help but glance at one of the light screen projections in the south area.

There were two people inside, one holding a long sword in his hand and standing proudly.

The other person had already fallen to the ground and died.

Looking at his dead state, there was a bloody hole in his left eye. It was obvious that a long sword had penetrated his eye and penetrated his head to death.

Ying Yuanzi frowned slightly, this boy named Lu Chengtian's methods were quite cruel.

In this kind of light screen projection, everyone present can see it.

If he kills his opponent directly like this, he will definitely suffer the hatred of the defeated school and the hatred of his family.

Just as Ying Yuanzi guessed, he saw that the tutor of the defeated school and the eliminated students were all clenching their fists at this moment, with expressions of grief and anger.

"Damn it, the senior has already voluntarily admitted defeat, but he still kills me!"

"After the Hundred Academy Competition is over, we will definitely settle the score with this guy!!"

Anger surged in their eyes, and they stared at Lu Chengtian in the light screen projection, wanting to swallow him alive.

"Don't be impulsive, that boy's name is Lu Chengtian."

Seeing that all the students were filled with righteous indignation, the academic tutor frowned and warned: "His father, Lu Cang, is the commander-in-chief of the Xingyu Empire's legions. His family is powerful and you cannot afford to offend him."

When they heard Lu Chengtian's background identity, the students' hearts suddenly trembled, and their original feelings of hatred dissipated in an instant.

However, if Lin Hao were here at this moment, he might raise his lips with disdain.

Because the commander-in-chief ‘Lu Cang’ was defeated by him on the battlefield when he led his army to invade the Territory of Chaos more than two months ago.

However, at this time, Lin Hao was completely unaware of this.

In a messy battlefield.

Lin Hao glanced briefly and suddenly realized a more serious problem.

That is, where should the winner climb to the top?

He found that except for the two passages through which he and Chen Zhen entered the battle platform, there was no other way out.

If you enter the opponent's passage, it will most likely lead directly to the outside instead of directly to the upper level.

In response, a look of confusion gradually emerged in Lin Hao's eyes.

Not only him, but the winners of other battle stages at this moment also face this problem.

"The previous competition mode was to hunt for the spiritual sigils of other contestants to gain the qualification for promotion."

While thinking in his mind, Lin Hao seemed to clarify his thoughts.

Immediately, he turned his eyes and looked at Chen Zhen, who was not out yet, and murmured to himself: "Is this the same in the current ranking battle?"

Thinking of this, Lin Hao moved and rushed towards Chen Zhen.

"Spirit talisman, hand it over."

He pointed the iron rod directly at the opponent and said coldly.

Hearing this, Chen Zhen's face changed slightly, apparently realizing this.

The spiritual talisman represents his qualification to continue competing.

The loser has only two choices.

Either hand over the spiritual sigil voluntarily, or die.

Faced with Lin Hao's powerful strength, he didn't dare to be negligent at this moment, and he obediently handed over ten spiritual talisman seals.

Lin Hao stretched out his hand to grab it and directly sucked the spiritual talisman into his palm.

The next moment, the twenty spiritual talismans in the palm squirmed rapidly, and a strange energy fluctuation filled the air.

Buzz!

Just when Lin Hao was surprised, this wave of energy suddenly shot out.

The thick ceiling was instantly penetrated by a dark hole.

"I see."

Seeing this, Lin Hao raised his eyebrows lightly, and immediately stopped stagnant, and suddenly jumped up, directly rushing into the entrance of the cave.

After a brief trance, Lin Hao discovered that he was already standing in a passage.

What comes into view is still a deep passage.

This time, after Lin Hao learned the rules, he no longer ran as fast as he did at the beginning.

While walking with even steps, he also changed into a set of Tianyan Academy uniforms.

About two minutes later, Lin Hao arrived at the end of the passage.

The battle platform on the second floor seems to be a bit more upscale.

The entrance to the passage is not an iron fence, but a bronze gate.

There is a faint light seeping through the gap in the ajar door.

Lin Hao took a deep breath, followed the light, walked slowly closer, and opened the door directly.

In sight, this is a vast battle platform, its area is twice as large as before.

Moreover, there are huge stone pillars standing all around it, adding a little sense of the scene.

At this time, there was silence in the battle arena.

Lin Hao glanced around and found no trace.

Looking at the entrance of the passage opposite, the bronze door is still closed.

It seems that the opponent for the second round has not arrived yet.

Lin Hao stared at the closed door warily for a while, but there was still no movement.

Being so bored with waiting, Lin Hao simply sat cross-legged on the ground.

While he closed his eyes and rested his mind, an invisible spiritual power spread out from his body and instantly covered the entire battlefield, alerting him to any changes in his surroundings.

Little did they know that on the right side of the battle platform, where a stone pillar was reflected, there was a shadow creeping slowly and strangely.
