“Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Bai Lu Mountain Arena!”

With the host’s same opening remarks as yesterday, more enthusiastic applause and cheers than the day before have been aroused.

After yesterday’s selection battle, anyone could see the value of this year’s City Youth Training Competition in Bai Lu Mountain City.

In the past, scoring ninety points was enough to rank in the top four and qualify for advancement in city-level youth training competitions. This time, the number of contestants scoring over ninety points reached double digits.

Such fierce competition means greater pressure for the contestants, but it also means a more exciting competition for the audience.

The audience who couldn’t buy tickets and could only watch the live broadcast online regretted it deeply, while those who got the tickets looked forward even more to today’s performances.

There was no need to repeat the competition rules which had been already introduced yesterday, so the competition started earlier.

A few minutes later, the first contestant initiated the battle with the selection battle standard.

Soon, it was the turn of the seventh contestant, Du Weiwei.

Encouraged by the three Qin Langs, she took a deep breath and stepped onto the battlefield from the player passage, putting on a more intense fight with Little Glutinous Rice than yesterday.

Perhaps under pressure, Du Weiwei performed beyond her normal level, obtaining a final score of 91.5.

This score, 0.2 higher than yesterday’s, allowed her to surpass the previous fifth-place holder and become the current fifth in scoring.

However, having used up both selection battle opportunities meant that she no longer had the chance to move on to the next round.

Facing the comfort of the three Qin Langs, Du Weiwei responded quite optimistically.

But the refusal to admit defeat in her heart made her determined to score more than 91.5 in the next city youth training competition.

After Du Weiwei, it was Qin Lang’s turn soon.

This time, Qin Lang was up against benchmark contestant number 2.

The benchmark’s power was as strong as that of number 1. His Food Spirit had a combat skill, Cold Breath, identical to Little Glutinous Rice, and another fighting-based combat skill that could increase his agility.

At last, in the collision of ice and fire, Qin Lang won again.

Perhaps because of going all out in yesterday’s selection battle, Qin Lang’s score in his second selection battle did not increase but remained at 91.8, similar to his previous score.

Thus, his ranking did not change, and he remained in third place.

Afterwards, one contestant after another took the stage.

The contestant in the temporary fourth place, Li Xiaoyu, also had his second selection battle in the morning. Apparently unsatisfied with his current fourth-place score, he replaced his previous two-star Food Spirit to try to get a higher score in the second battle.

In the end, in an atmosphere full of tension, Li Xiaoyu obtained a new score.

91.7 points.

Just a bit short of the third-place Qin Lang.

After twenty contestants completed the selection battle, the more exciting afternoon session came.

In the spotlight, Zhu Quan, who scored the highest yesterday and exhibited a three-star Food Spirit, took the stage again.

He chose the same Food Spirit as yesterday’s, but displayed greater strength than yesterday. It seemed as if he had held back yesterday.

Finally, his score was 96.0.

In the circumstances where his score was already far above that of the other contestants, his act of updating his score again gave the other contestants a close-up feeling of suffocation.

Suddenly, it was Qi Xiaoyu’s turn to enter the spotlight.

It was obvious that she did her best to prepare for today’s selection battle last night.

After obtaining a score of 67.9 in the first game, she achieved an excellent score of 68.4 this time.

An increase of 0.5 points was already quite significant.

Qi Xiaoyu was indeed very satisfied with this score. She returned to the contestant preparation seat with her face beaming, hugging Du Weiwei’s arm and whispering to her.

Then, it was Hao Yifan’s turn again.

Perhaps because of the pressure from Zhu Quan or because he loosened up due to his temporary second rank, Hao Yifan’s performance in his second selection battle was not as good as his first.

His final score was just 91.6. According to the rules, his final score would be calculated as 92.0, the score of his first selection battle, which allowed him to keep the second place.

Although the scores of the top four fluctuated, the ranking did not change.

When many people thought they were going to advance, the unexpected happened.

It happened to a female contestant named Xia Yun, whose score in the first selection battle was 90.3.

This score was quite good in previous competitions, but not enough to allow her to advance in this competition.

Perhaps she planned to preserve her energy but did not expect the competition to be so intense this year. She substituted a stronger two-star Food Spirit today.

In the end, with the Food Spirit ending the battle cleanly with a set of combined battle skills, Xia Yun scored a high score of 92.4.

A new second hybrid, had appeared!

For a moment, the face of Li Xiaoyu, who sat in the contestant preparation seat, seemed a little ugly.

Unable to surpass Qin Lang, he became the fifth place after Xia Yun’s breakthrough.

Even Qin Lang had a touch of anxiety on his face.

He was still fourth, but if another player like this appears…

After Xia Yun, it was Zhao Chen’s turn.

The adolescent and his Food Spirit, Yangyang, tried their best, but his final selection battle score was identical to yesterday’s, which left him quite unsatisfied, murmuring about making a triumphant return next time.

In the end, all sixty-seven contestants had completed the second selection battle.

What Qin Lang was worried about did not happen.

Although some people had higher scores in the second round, they didn’t threaten his fourth place.

“Now, taking the highest score of the two selection battles as the final score, let’s look at the final scores of all the contestants!”

In the host’s passionate voice, the leaderboard appeared on the big screen above the venue.

This leaderboard initially displayed the ranking of all sixty-seven contestants, but soon retained only the top four.

“Let’s give our warmest applause and congratulations to the top four contestants in the selection battle!”

“First Place: Zhu Quan, with 96.0 points!”

“Second Place: Xia Yun, with 92.4 points!”

“Third Place: Hao Yifan, with 92.0 points!”

“Fourth Place: Qin Lang, with 91.8 points!”

“They will advance to the next ranking round, competing for the top four rankings!”

With the continuous voice of the host, the big screen picture changed.

Four advancing contestants’ photos appeared.

“Now, let’s invite the four contestants who have advanced to come on stage!”

“Qin Lang, go quickly!” Qi Xiaoyu couldn’t help but push Qin Lang excitedly.

Qin Lang nodded, followed the other three contestants, and quickly walked into the player’s passage.

Soon, the four of them stood in the middle of the competition venue.

“Now, please welcome Ms. Xu Qingmo, President of the Bai Lu Mountain City Spirit Chef Association, and thirteen Spirit Executors together to present the top four rewards to the four contestants: Starstones!”

Huh?

Qin Lang blinked.

He couldn’t help but glance at Xu Qingmo, who was walking down the chairman’s stage carrying an alloy box with a solemn face, and the thirteen spirit executors who gathered around her.

Selection battle promotion…

Does it need to be such high specification?
