Bab 522: A Gamble

After a series of intense battles, the results of the first of the knockout round were finally confirmed. Shi Mu was ranked 36th on the list.

This was the result Shi Mu aimed for. After confirming that he had successfully entered the second round, he conceded to an elder disciple who was in his last stage of cultivation.

Among the new disciples, Zhao Ji's journey was like an oak tree. He had eventually defeated several elder disciples and became the undisputed leader. Throughout all of his matches, including the last one, he never had to resort to using the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art to win, which everyone had expected.

Zi Ling performed equally well in her battles with her famed magical techniques, which landed her at 11th place in the rankings.

Among those Shi Mu knew of was Qing Zhangtian, who ranked 27th. Jiang Shuishui placed 40th and Chinizi ranked 87th in the ranking.
