After finishing his battle with Sky Demon Tu, Zhou Bai returned to his seat and prepared to watch the next battle.
However, his mind was still replaying the feeling of being imprisoned by Exalted Heaven's space-time power and being unable to break free.
"In the last few days, for safety's sake, I'll have to become a little stronger. If I have to fight against Immortals and Gods, I'll have a little more hope.
"The fastest way to become stronger now is to devour providence and increase the power of Primordial Spirit."
Zhou Bai's gaze swept across the contestants and the high and mighty Immortals and Gods. In his field of vision, every contestant was surging with different colors of providence.
However, the contestants were either white or red, with at most a little purple. Although there was a lot of it, none of them had reached the level of being favored by heaven's will.
"However, as the Exalted Heaven's sparring continues, especially after the top ten are selected, the providence on each of them is indeed getting stronger and stronger. It's more than ten times stronger than when I first saw them."
"As expected, a competition that all humans pay attention to, watch, and care about, as well as the endorsement of the Celestial Court, can indeed gather providence."
"It's a pity that until now, there's still no one favored by heaven's will."
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai looked at the eight Immortals and Gods on the stage. Among them, Immortal Tu Gui, Immortal Tian Yangzi, Immortal Ming Yue, and Perfected Qin all had thick purplish-red providence. Even the heavens and earth didn't have a hint of green.
On the other side, True Lord Zi Yang, True Lord Greed, True Lord Tian Wei of the Plague Sect, and True Lord Xing Zhuan of the Heaven Sect were all surrounded by a faint cyan color. Although it wasn't as intense as Li Xiuzhu's and the Empyrean Fairy's, it was indeed a sign that the heavens favored them.
"Sigh, previously, I thought it would be a little risky to use Gui Hai Black Fury to absorb the providence of Immortals and Gods in Central City. Now that I'm pursuing the fastest way to improve, I'll still have to harvest providence."
"Speaking of which …"
Zhou Bai turned his head to search and soon found a hint of green among the thousands of white providence in the audience.
"That woman seems to have come together with Sun Jingping. She actually has the Favor of Heaven's Will. Although she's the one with the weakest green color among all the Favor of Heaven's Will that I've seen." Zhou Bai wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth. "I thought he would get into the top ten, but he didn't. What's his background?"
"Should I absorb her luck?"
"No matter what, we're all humans. That's not good, right …?"
On the other side, Empyrean Fairy was watching the competition from the spectator stands. Her mind was replaying the scene of Zhou Bai defeating the Sky Demon Slayer.
"It's only been less than half a year, yet you've grown so much stronger. I thought he didn't have any armor because he didn't dare to use the Abyss Dragon Armor. I didn't expect Dong Hua Dao School to make one for him. "
The Empyrean Maiden couldn't help but frown. Zhou Bai's rate of growth had actually exceeded her expectations. She couldn't help but start to conceive and modify her original plan.
"When Sun Jingping and Zhou Bai meet next, why don't I do this … I must let the Immortal kill him."
Suddenly, the Empyrean Maiden felt as if someone's gaze had been shrouding her. Her gaze shifted slightly, and she happened to be looking at Zhou Bai just now. At this moment, when she shifted her gaze, she saw that Zhou Bai was staring straight at her.
The Empyrean Fairy instantly felt goosebumps all over her body. She turned her head with a calm expression and pretended that her gaze had just coincidentally swept across Zhou Bai. In reality, her back was drenched in cold sweat.
Her brain went wild with warnings. "What's going on? Why is he looking at me? "
"Speaking of which, it's true that when we were both contestants, he looked at me a few times. However, this is the first time he's staring at me so directly."
"Could it be that he noticed me? How is that possible? "
Mystic Fairy glanced at Zhou Bai out of the corner of her eye. When she realized that he wasn't looking at her, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, there was still a trace of gloominess between her brows. She kept wondering if she had given herself away somewhere.
The Empyrean Fairy looked at the schedule in the sky. It was filled with the battles of the top ten contestants, and they were randomly arranged to the next nine days.
"Today is the first day …" The Empyrean Maiden's eyes narrowed. "The third match of the third day is between Zhou Bai and Sun Jingping. Soon … soon … "
…
"Hmm …" Zhou Bai said, "Let's talk to her tonight."
Zhou Bai sighed inwardly. 'There's nothing I can do about it. I'm currently standing on the side of the humans, and I have the highest chance of getting first place in the sparring session. I have to get first place … even if I have to harvest the karmic luck of others, I won't hesitate.'
Just as Zhou Bai was thinking, the second battle had begun. It was between Shi Fa and Xiang Haochu.
Xiang Haochu pulled out a large blade that was surrounded by purple lightning. The Dragon Elephant Kasaya on Shi Fa's body suddenly expanded, like a gigantic Qi barrier that protected Shi Fa.
Zhou Bai's ears twitched slightly, and he heard the conversation between Wen He and Zhao Yue in the distance.
Wen He: "Tsk tsk, Xiang Haochu actually took out the Thunder Blade that his father used in the past."
Zhao Yue: "Although the Thunder Blade and the Dragon Elephant Kasaya are both Ninth Realm magic treasures, one is a weapon and the other is an armor. Before reaching the Ninth Realm, Xiang Haochu would not be able to unleash the full power of the Thunder Blade. The destructive power on it would require the power of the Ninth Realm to activate. In the hands of an expert of the Ninth Realm, it could even break through the Ninth Realm Armor.
However, armor does not have this problem, because armor itself is used to strengthen and protect the body. The stronger the body, the stronger the armor. It can also be used well under the Ninth Realm. "
Zhou Bai thought in his heart, 'Is that so?' In that case, it would be more worthwhile to use armor below the Ninth Realm. Above the Ninth Realm, weapons can restrain armor? '
"Just in terms of magic treasure, Xiang Haochu has already lost by a level, not to mention that baldy Shi Fa also knows the Three Secrets Three Karma Buddha's Heart Seal. This is a supreme ability that is known as the Buddha's direct disciple."
"If that's the case, Xiang Haochu will probably admit defeat very soon." Wen He said: "The top ten competition is a round-robin tournament. If everyone fights to the end, they will have to fight a full nine rounds. The final result is the total score, so how to guarantee one's fighting strength in every round is very important. If you meet an opponent that you can't win against, quickly admit defeat.
The situation was as Zhao Yue and the others had expected. Shi Fa quickly gained the upper hand, and when Xiang Haochu felt that he could not win, he immediately surrendered.
Next was Wen He versus Sun Jingping. Sun Jingping, the genius cultivator that the Immortals of the Myriad Immortal Island had high hopes for, relied on the Doomsday Calamity and the Yama Devil Gold Body, these two supreme abilities, to suppress Wen He, the disciple of the Immortals.
However, Zhou Bai could see a trace of not using his full strength in the battle.
Zhou Bai thought to himself, 'It seems like these people from the Island of the Ten Thousand Immortals won't go all out in a life and death battle. At most, they'll try to determine who's stronger and who's weaker. If they think they can't do it, they'll let go.
The next match was between Shen Hai and Zhao Yue.
Shen Hai was the son of the True Lord Greed, a tall, rich and handsome immortal god seed. However, just like before, the two of them did not fight to the death. After Zhao Yueliang came out of the Eight Desolate Supreme Robe, Shen Hai thought for a while and then admitted defeat.
'As expected, they held back. And I will be targeted, right? ' Zhou Bai thought to himself: "Looks like just in case, there is indeed a need to harvest luck and increase my primordial spirit power."
