Chapter 17 The first round of the Apostles' Competition

Looking at the system tasks that appeared with his words, Ye Qi just smiled slightly - the level of B proved that it was only dangerous and it took some effort, but the level of danger was absolutely not high, and the completion rate was definitely more than 80%. For him, who was about to cross level 14 to reach level 15, such a task was simply undesirable; although in just two more weeks, his previous teaching tasks would also meet the conditions for completion, no one would dislike having much experience, right?

Night, Central Castle.

Because of the apostles' competition, the number of rangers patrolling around the castle and guards standing guard increased a lot; of course, the number of people was the protagonists of the competition - the apostles.

Although Ye Qi had not confirmed it, he knew from the swordsman's mouth that the number of apostles participating in the apostle competition exceeded 200, which was the record three days before the registration deadline. Looking at the number of apostles in front of him, Ye Qi could guarantee that it had definitely exceeded 300.

It was the first time for Ye Qi to see so many apostles appearing in the same place at the same time; feeling the strong or weak aura that was walking by, Ye Qi's hand on the hilt of Yanma's knife could not help but hold it tightly - even though he, who had always believed in calmness, was surrounded by so many auras, could not help but become excited.

The female cavalry captain who had been holding Ye Qi's arm clearly felt the change of Ye Qi, and immediately cast a worried look. It was not until Ye Qi patted the back of her hand and showed a reassuring smile that the female cavalry captain felt relieved, and a smile appeared on her face again - although Ye Qi's strength was guaranteed by Ye Qi, she was still worried when she saw so many apostles appearing under the Tower of Competition; after all, there were too many apostles appearing this time, more than any time she had ever seen...

"leaf!"

The swordsman waved his arms to Ye Qi from afar, and Ye Qi led the female cavalry leader to walk under the tree where the swordsman was standing.

"This is the apostle Cialier I met in Landingburg. This is my girlfriend Alce!" After introducing the two people I didn't know, Ye Qi pointed to the open space standing in front of the Athletic Tower and several crowded gravel paths around him, frowned and asked, "What are you doing here? Why don't you go in?"

"Hello, I know you very well!" After learning about the identity of the female cavalry leader, the swordsman immediately smiled friendly, and then when he heard Ye Qi's question, he immediately smiled bitterly: "Everyone wants to go in! However, the gate of the Tower of Competition has been closed!"

"Close?" Ye Qi looked at the gate of the Tower of Competition in surprise. Sure enough, the two iron gates that never closed were tightly closed at this time. Ye Qi couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Is the apostle competition going to change the time?"

"Of course not!" The swordsman shook his head affirmatively, and then said uncertainly: "It should be that the competition system has been changed!"

"Changed the system!?" Ye Qi looked at the swordsman in surprise. It was only the first time he participated in the apostle competition. Ye Qi was under the guise of a guise, but he did not have much in-depth understanding of the apostle competition. According to his idea, since it was a competition, then standing on the ring and fighting one side won and the other side lost. But now it seems that Ye Qi found that he underestimated the apostle competition a little; looking at Ye Qi with surprise, the swordsman nodded and said, "Well, that's right! The system of the apostle competition is not unchanging! It will make certain adjustments according to different situations!"

"However, no matter what, this kind of adjustment will not have anything to do with strength; Ye, you'll be relieved!" Seeing Ye Qi frowned, the swordsman immediately comforted him; and the female cavalry captain on the side also whispered: "The method of the previous competition in the Apostle Competition may change, but when the number of people is only 32, it is definitely a competition on the ring to determine the outcome; any Apostle Competition I know is like this, and there has been no change!"

"In other words, the previous competition plan will be changed based on the number of participants at that time, and the top 32 will be decided as soon as possible!" After hearing the words of the swordsman and the female cavalry leader, Ye Qi also reacted and said with a slight surprise: "No wonder he chose the two or three days before and after the Midwinter Festival. As long as the participants were eliminated on a large scale in the first few times, the remaining 32 people, even if one competition is one day, it will be enough!"

Huh...

Just as Ye Qi and the other two were standing under the tree and talking in a low voice, the gate of the competitive tower, which had been closed, slowly opened with a dull sound. A giant man in formal clothes walked out slowly with a sheepskin scroll with gold edges on one hand.

"Everyone, welcome to participate in this apostle martial arts competition!" The loud voice of the giant man rang in front of the competitive tower: "In order to let you all out your strength, the senior management of the witcher headquarters decided that the winner will be the first place this time, the holy weapon!"

"Holy Artifact!"

"It turns out to be a holy weapon!"

"I didn't expect the rumors to be true. This apostle competition has indeed a holy weapon!"

The Giant Man's words immediately aroused the discussions of the apostles below, and everyone's face was full of excitement and excitement. The excitement and excitement turned into a desire for victory at the next moment. The scorching gaze shot out from the eyes of more than 300 apostles simply burned the air to boil - although the Giant Man did not explain the level, even a holy weapon with the lowest level of starlight was worth their way! After all, it was a holy weapon that could double their own combat power, or even turn defeat into victory at critical moments and turn the situation around!

"Holy weapon!" After hearing the giant man's words, the swordsman's eyes lit up immediately, he stood aside and rubbed his hands, and couldn't wait to make a bold statement to Ye Qi beside him: "I'm going to settle the first place! Ye, we all rely on our strength, and I will never let go!"

After glanced at the confident swordsman, Ye Qi shrugged indifferently - he didn't mind the other party's straightforwardness; because, at this moment, he also thought so; after all, not only did he have systematic tasks to complete, but the temptation of the holy weapon to him was self-evident; unlike Jacob's illusion of going to the ruins to find the holy weapon, the holy weapon in front of him is real, and you can get it as long as you get the first one.

Suddenly, a trace of heat appeared in Ye Qi's heart.

"In order to reflect the specific strength of all aspects, the first competition will be held now!" The open space, which was full of discussion, immediately became audible after the giant man spoke again; after all, no apostles present wanted to pass by the holy weapon because they did not hear the rules clearly; therefore, when the giant man read the rules, he raised his ears one after another, listening with his breath: "From the position where you stand, the third floor of the fighting arena of the competitive tower is the end; the time limit is two hours, those who arrive at two hours are qualified, and the rest are considered as failure; now the first competition begins!"

He closed the sheepskin scroll in his hand, and the giant shouted with a full breath and immediately rushed to the apostles in the open space and rushed to the tower of competition. Even with the giant's strength, he was squeezed aside in such a wave of people.

"Ye, why don't you set off quickly?" The female cavalry captain looked at the crowded crowd and the swordsman who rushed out quickly, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "You know that this is time limit!"

After hearing the female cavalry captain's anxiety, Ye Qi couldn't help but ask with a smile: "How many floors are there in the competitive tower?"

"Three floors!" The female cavalry captain replied subconsciously, and when she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something was wrong and couldn't help but look at Ye Qi who looked up at him; Ye Qi also said with a smile: "That's right! The competition tower with only three floors has given a two-hour limit; it's obvious that this time the comparison is not speed, but other aspects! Otherwise, with the physical fitness of the apostle, even a hundred-story skyscraper can go back and forth several times!"

As Ye Qi said, although the Tower of Competition is as tall as the other five towers, unlike the other five towers, the Tower of Competition is only three floors - the hall on the first floor, the arena on the second floor, and the fighting arena on the third floor; even if each floor is taller and wider than the floors of ordinary buildings, an ordinary person with a faster speed can run back and forth in five minutes; while the headquarters of the Demon Hunter stipulates two hours, it is obvious that there must be some traps or levels that block the apostles from moving forward.

"Then how good do you want to set off?" Faced with the question of the female cavalry leader, Ye Qi pointed to the apostles around him who had not left, and said relaxedly: "Look at them!"

Of course, there are not only Ye Qi, and those who can become an apostle are not himself. If they were not blinded by the existence of the holy artifact, all the apostles would probably find the strangeness in the words of the giant man; and even so, about fifty people remained in place.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon thirty minutes passed by the ticking of the clock. As time passed, only six contestants who had participated in the fifty people in the open space, including Ye Qi, were left; and there were dazzling silver edges at the corners of the windbreakers of these five apostles, and the remaining five apostles were all Yuehui-level apostles.

Time slipped away for ten minutes again. A small, thin man among the five Yuehui-level apostles walked out, shrugged his shoulders, and said to the remaining Ye Qi and others: "Everyone, if we wait any longer, we may really fail! Anyone want to form a team?"

After hesitating for a moment, two of the remaining four people walked out and stood in front of the previous apostle; and when the apostle saw someone supporting his proposal again, he immediately smiled on his face and waved his hand at the remaining Ye Qi and the other two: "Then let's take a step first, wishing you good luck!"

After saying that, the three of them turned around and walked into the Tower of Competition; and after the three of them left, one of the two remaining apostles looked at Ye Qi and looked at the other young man leaning on the trunk of the tree, closing his eyes to rest. In the end, he still didn't speak and walked towards the Tower of Competition alone.

"Aren't you worried about losing the qualification?" After only two contestants were left, the young man who had been closing his eyes before opened his eyes and looked at Ye Qi, who had no intention of entering the competitive tower: "You know that fifty minutes have passed!"

"Aren't you the same?" Ye Qi glanced at the other party's young face that was almost as young as him, and said in a calm tone: "Since you are not in a hurry, why should I be in a hurry?"

"So that's it!" The young man's palm clenched his fist as if he was suddenly enlightened and beat the other palm, then turned around and walked towards the Tower of Competition, while stretching out one hand and swaying: "My name is Job, I hope I can continue to see you in the next game!"

Ye Qi did not answer, watched the other party disappear into the competitive tower, and then whispered to the female cavalry captain: "I will be back soon!"

"Um!"

The female cavalry captain nodded slightly.

Dingding...

With the crisp sound of bells, Ye Qi walked towards the Tower of Competition.

"Ye, be careful!" When passing by the giant man who had been guarding the door, the giant man's low voice came into his ears; he was stunned for a moment, and there was a smile in his eyes when Ye Qi looked at the giant man: "Thank you, Ted!"

Because of teaching this intern apostle, the two met every day during the two weeks. Although it was difficult for the Giant Man to adapt to Ye Qi's "teaching method" at the beginning, as time passed, when he saw the intern apostles who changed a day, the Giant Man, who was a little straightforward, couldn't help but admire Ye Qi more, and this admiration undoubtedly promoted the Giant Man's friendship with Ye Qi. Although the current reminder is suspected of violating the regulations of the apostle competition, does not prove that friendship is important in the hearts of Giant Man?

Ye Qi believed that if the cold-faced man standing in front of the door at this time was a cold-faced man, with the other party's personality, he would never say a word...

Standing on the Moon Night Tower, he could see the entire central castle. Seeing the last one, Ye Qi also walked into the competitive tower. Only the guards and female cavalry captains of the Witcher Headquarters were left in the open space, Hesel couldn't help but look at his old friend, with a complaining tone: "Is this a bit too much?"

"Don't worry!" Blank, who seemed to be asleep in the sofa, opened his squinting eyes and said yawning: "Those guys are very sensible and will not hurt these little guys! And those guys should also be active, otherwise they will probably become moldy and hairy if they stay in your Moonlight Night Tower!"

"And although these little guys have the name of an apostle, they do not have the ability that the apostle should have! Old friend, have you seen the scene of rushing in just now?" Blank opened his single eyes not only serious, but more worried. At the end of his speech, he couldn't help but sigh: "Peace has been too long; if they have not experienced the trial of blood and fire, they are just a group of chicks after all..."

"I would rather they are just a flock of chicks forever..." Hesel shook his head, with expectation on his old face: "Peace is always much more precious than war!"

"Old friend!" Blank sighed at a rare moment: "Don't you understand yet? Interests are always the source of endless disputes!"

"The Demon Hunter Union, the Holy See, the Supreme Government, and the families lurking beside each other will sooner or later break the balance of the current balance due to certain interests! We are just preparing for the future!" Blank, who took out the wine pot in his arms, took a big mouthful of his eyes again, closed his eyes again: "Isn't it what we old guys should do now to gain more room for growth for these little guys?"

Hesel looked at his old friend who was sleeping with his eyes closed. He didn't speak for a long time, and finally couldn't help but sigh...

"You guys say, who is that guy who has passed this first round competition?"

Mira in pajamas squatted beside Jesse who was exercising again and asked in a low voice: Although the trainee apostles are qualified to watch the apostles, that happened after the top 32; they were not qualified to participate in the previous large-scale screening; therefore, the trainee apostles were very curious about who could enter the final top 32, especially those who were extremely gossipy, who were so gossipy that they couldn't sit still like a hundred claws and wanted to get first-hand news as soon as possible.

"Wow, don't wake Aiqi!"

Jesse turned over gently, silently returned to his normal sitting position from the inverted state, pointed to Aiqi who was already asleep, and looked at Mira with a little reproachfulness - because the three were the only three girls among the trainee apostles of this class, and the relationship between the three was very good; so, when allocating the room, after the request of the three, the giant man swung a big stroke, and the three lived in a room.

Mira, who woke up, immediately stuck out her tongue at Jesse embarrassedly. Jesse, who knew her friend's character, immediately sighed helplessly. Then after pondering for a while, she whispered to analyze for her friend: "Although the Apostle Competition will change in each session in the early stage, there will be basically no changes in the later stage; and the main tone that runs through it is still the strong first; and judging by the strength of that guy, even if there are other Yuehui-level apostles, this first round of competition should be able to win the top three!"

"The top three?" Mila wiped her smooth chin, tried hard to think, and shook her head distressedly: "I didn't expect there are so many people stronger than us! What should we do in the future! Do we have to be oppressed by that guy? When I think about having two weeks to get along with that guy, I want to hit the wall!"

"Puchi!" Jesse, who was amused by his friend's appearance, patted Mira on the shoulder and then said seriously: "Don't worry! As long as we work hard, we will definitely catch up with that guy!"

"Yeah!" Mira nodded when she heard this, but she quickly said with a bitter face: "But it's hard to work hard! Let's leave it to you! As for me?" Mira thought for a while, and immediately said: "Don't worry, I will collect information from my opponents and let you win every battle!"

Seeing his friend climbing back into bed, Jesse shook his head helplessly, and then started exercising again...

This is?
