Bab 72: Chapter 72 Genius Privilege_1

Ling Xiao arrived at the competition arena when the final had already been going on for nearly half a shichen.

The finals adopted a challenge match system.

That is, the one hundred and ten participants in the finals, could challenge someone with a higher ranking based on their initial rankings.

However, there was a restriction that one could not challenge someone more than ten ranks ahead at a time.

This was to avoid a situation where a martial artist would be worn down by successive battles.

After all, the total amount of Gang Qi for disciples in the Genius Hall at this stage wasn't much, and if they were to be challenged continuously, their chances of losing were quite high.

Furthermore, only those who were lower in the rankings could challenge those above them to prevent higher-ranked disciples from seeking personal revenge or deliberately humiliating lower-ranked ones.

Under such rules, even arriving half an hour late wouldn't affect the overall pace of the competition.
