Not many people on Upper Academy Island knew about the arrival of the Federation military. After all, they eventually landed on Sky Path Island and were covered by fog. Even if someone saw them from afar, they were only surprised and did not know the details.
In the next two days, the number of cruisers that arrived at Ethereal Dao College gradually increased. Most of them were officials from the Federation who had come to watch the Combat Pavilion Tournament. They also landed on Sky Path Island.
Just as the guests from various places arrived, the day of the Combat Pavilion Tournament was approaching. There were more and more discussions in the pavilions on Upper Academy Island, and the enthusiasm of the people in the pavilions also gradually increased.
As a matter of fact, during this period of time, there were disciples from various pavilions that were invited to participate in the battle. On the other hand, most of the disciples had earned quite a bit through the trades with the disciples of the Combat Pavilion. Apart from being happy, they were extremely interested in the battle.
There were even people who secretly set up bets, which made the entire Upper Academy Island even livelier. The Spirit Intranet was also talking about the tournament every day.
As for Wang Baole, he finally finished refining and adjusting the set of Dharma artifacts that he wanted to advertise on the evening before the tournament.
Most of these Dharma artifacts were perfect second-grade Dharma artifacts. However, there were still some that were ordinary second-grade Dharma artifacts.
"It's a pity that time is too tight. Otherwise, it would not be impossible for all of them to be perfect second-grade Dharma artifacts." Wang Baole looked at the Dharma artifacts that he had refined and was very satisfied. There were more than ten small wooden buckets in it, which were his meticulous and eye-catching moves.
At this moment, Wang Baole chuckled. He felt that he would definitely advertise to the maximum this time. Even if the Combat Pavilion disciple who looked like he had kicked in the crotch did not cooperate, Wang Baole would still have a way to advertise. Therefore, he closed his eyes and meditated with anticipation, adjusting his state of mind.
It was a quiet night.
The next morning, the bell on Upper Academy Island reverberated. At the center of all the floating mountains in mid-air, there was a dazzling light. A huge array formation that looked like a mirror had appeared!
This array formation was extremely vast and exuded a dazzling light that shook the hearts of everyone who saw it. At the same time, there was a person standing in mid-air outside this array formation.
This person was an old man dressed in a black robe. His face was expressionless, but his voice had a penetrating power that spread throughout the entire Upper Academy Island.
"All participants and assistants, step into this formation and head to the examination area. Unrelated people are not allowed to enter!"
As the old man's words spread out, a large number of people flew out from the floating mountains of the various pavilions. Naturally, most of them were from the Combat Pavilion, but there were also quite a number of people from the other pavilions who were assisting them.
There were more than 20,000 people. Some of them were standing on airships, while others were actually standing on magic treasures such as flying swords. They were heading straight for the array formation. From afar, one could see streaks of rainbows whistling through the air. Their imposing manner was astonishing.
Everyone who saw this was shaken. Once again, they clearly realized that this was no longer the Common Era, but the Spirit Inception Era!
Wang Baole had also emerged from the Immortal's cave. Looking at the shocking spell formation in mid-air, his heart trembled, and his eyes filled with envy and excitement.
This was the first time he had seen so many people rise into the air at the same time, especially since there were many people whose cultivation had surpassed the first level of the True Breath realm. The aura emanating from their bodies was frightening.
There were even some who were at the pinnacle of the fifth level of the True Breath realm. They were extremely calm, and the pressure they exuded was clearly superior to those around them. It was as if they could destroy everything in their path.
After a few hurried breaths, a bright light shone in Wang Baole's eyes. Even his blood seemed to be flowing faster, boiling faintly. He pulled out the repaired cruiser, stepped onto it, and rose into the air, transforming into a rainbow and becoming part of the crowd of cultivators in mid-air.
As the airship whistled, Wang Baole approached the spell formation. Seeing that the others did not stop at all and directly charged into the spell formation and disappeared, his heart raced. Without hesitation, he followed suit and flew in. The moment he touched the spell formation, he felt his vision blur. It was as if he had passed through the surface of the water. When he reappeared, he was in a place he had never been to before!
The sky was still blue with white clouds, and the Sword Sun shone high in the sky. However, the ground was no longer Upper Academy Island, but a piece of land covered with huge mountain peaks!
The mountain peaks here were very strange. They had four sides, front, back, left, and right, and there were more than a hundred of them. The most shocking thing was that they seemed to be carved from the same mold. They were exactly the same. Even the distance between each other was exactly the same, as if they had been replicated.
This strange scene immediately caused an uproar among many people who had entered for the first time. As more and more people arrived, when everyone had stepped into the spell formation and stepped into the land, the sounds of discussion rose and fell.
"These mountains … How were they made!?"
"This should be a spell formation?"
"How extravagant. I've heard that this place seems to have been created by a ninth-grade Dharmic Armament of Ethereal Dao College!"
Amidst the commotion, Wang Baole also took a few deep breaths. There were too many people around him. Although Wang Baole had sent a voice transmission to the crazy combat cultivator, he could not find him in such a short time. At that moment, as he listened to the discussions around him, he looked at the mountain peaks below him. He could vaguely see that the hundreds of mountain peaks here were divided into five regions. However, before Wang Baole could take a closer look, a low voice reverberated from above them.
"Don't make a ruckus. From the first to the fourth level of the True Breath realm, enter the East, West, North, and South regions respectively. Those at the fifth level of the True Breath realm, enter the central region!"
This voice was like thunder, exploding in everyone's ears. It caused everyone to fall silent instantly. When they looked up instinctively, the sounds of inhaling could be heard again. However, no one dared to make a ruckus.
This was because … above their heads, the original sky had changed. There were actually four huge stairs floating in the sky. They were connected to each other and formed the word 'mouth'!
They could see that there were many people sitting on the stairs. They were densely packed, numbering in the hundreds. With their height, they could see all the matches that were taking place on all the mountain peaks when they lowered their heads!
In particular, there were many of them who exuded extremely strong suppressive auras that made one's heart tremble violently.
Although they were a little far away and ordinary people might not be able to see the appearances of the figures on the stairs clearly, the cultivators there could still see their appearances clearly after condensing their Spirit Energy into their eyes. Although they could not see the details, they could still see their appearances clearly.
Wang Baole's heart trembled as he looked up and swept his gaze across the crowd on the stairs. He noticed that these people were actually divided into three groups. One group was wearing the same uniform and exuded a somber aura like that of a soldier. As for the other two groups, Wang Baole judged that they were most likely the upper echelons of Ethereal Dao College and Federation officials.
Wang Baole only glanced at a few of them and felt a piercing pain in his eyes. It was as if he was a mortal looking directly at the sun. Wang Baole was shocked and quickly retracted his gaze. He did not take a closer look at everyone. He only saw that among the few people, besides a burly man wearing a black cape from the military, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a red robe in another seat. He was like a blazing sun and was extremely eye-catching.
Just as Wang Baole retracted his gaze, he suddenly felt as if someone was looking at him. Stunned, Wang Baole thought that it was an illusion and looked over as well.
As he looked over, he immediately saw a woman sitting beside the burly man in the military. At that moment, the woman was looking at him coldly with disgust and sternness in her eyes.
"She looks a little familiar … Zhou Lu?!" Wang Baole was stunned for a moment, but he quickly pretended as if nothing had happened and slowly retracted his gaze.
This woman was none other than Zhou Lu, who had used her authority to attack him in the Ethereal City's combat arena when he was still on the Lower Academy Island. In the end, he had beaten her up and kicked her butt.
"I heard that she went to the military … From the looks of it, she seems to have recognized me? Could it be that my cheapskate son, Lu Zihao, exposed me? " Wang Baole did not pay too much attention to it. Now that he was a disciple of the Upper Academy Island, he wondered if Zhou Lu would bite him. Therefore, he snorted in his heart and ignored her.
Soon, the people around him dispersed according to the instructions and entered different areas. Wang Baole also stepped into the East District as if nothing had happened.
However, he could feel that Zhou Lu's gaze was still there.
"So annoying …" Wang Baole muttered in his heart and did not pay much attention to it. He turned on his voice transmission ring and once again sent a voice transmission to the mysterious person in the Combat Pavilion whom he was going to assist.
Although they had exchanged voice transmission numbers on the Spirit Intranet, this would be the first time Wang Baole would see the other party. After telling him the location, he turned off his voice transmission ring and stood there waiting.
However, after waiting for a while, he saw that the people around him had almost finished gathering in groups, but the person he was waiting for had not arrived. Wang Baole was a little anxious. He wondered if the other party was playing a prank on him.
Just as he was thinking about that, Wang Baole suddenly noticed that someone in the crowd nearby seemed to be looking at him. Therefore, he glanced around and immediately saw a young man standing there with a conflicted expression on his face, as if he had eaten sh * t.
"Son?" Wang Baole felt that the other party looked familiar. This person was Lu Zihao, who he had kicked in the crotch and bent his fingers and called him father. He did not enter Spirit Breath Village. Instead, he obtained a spirit root through other means and entered Upper Academy Island.
At this moment, seeing that Wang Baole had noticed him, Lu Zihao gritted his teeth and walked over step by step with a sullen expression until he was in front of Wang Baole.
"It can't be you …" Wang Baole blinked.
Lu Zihao snorted and raised his chin. He did not say anything, but he was also annoyed. If not for the fact that he had no other choice, he would definitely find someone else to assist him.
Wang Baole suddenly laughed. He sized up Lu Zihao and could not help but speak.
"Come, call me father …"
Hearing the two words "father", the veins on Lu Zihao's forehead bulged as if he was about to explode. After a while, he took a deep breath and glared angrily at Wang Baole.
"Wang Baole, listen up. This time, I don't need you to do anything. You're just here to make up the numbers. Do you see? Zhou Lu is up there. She's staring at you!"
"Damn, you really were the one who told on me. Son, you've got guts!" Wang Baole glared and was about to speak, but the surroundings gradually quietened down. Wang Baole snorted and ignored Lu Zihao. However, he could not help but glance at the stairs in the sky again. He realized that there were actually seven or eight seats that were looking at him. He was a little surprised and blinked.
