The ten chess pieces in the air continued to grow. In the end, each of the chess pieces seemed to have transformed into a vast platform.
Of course, although these chess pieces had become very large, they were nothing compared to the chessboard of the Nimble Chess Set.
However, the ten chess pieces hovering in the air still gave Duan Lingtian a strong visual shock. "Such huge chess pieces hovering in the air … Is this the Mirror Image of an Illusory Formation?"
However, when Ren Zhong spoke again and asked everyone present to stand on the ten huge chess pieces in the air, Duan Lingtian realized the ten huge chess pieces hovering in the air were not an ordinary Mirror Image of an Illusory Formation.
When he landed on them, he felt as though he was standing on solid ground.
"What kind of Formation is this?"
Duan Lingtian's heart was filled with shock. "It can actually make the Mirror Image of an Illusory Formation so realistic."
Although Duan Lingtian knew a little about Formations, the Formations he could set up were nothing compared to the Formation that set up the Nimble Chess Set before his eyes.
"Even the Illusory Formation that the Illusory Formation Compass in my hand can set up is nothing compared to this Illusory Formation … Who's the person who set up this Illusory Formation? It's so powerful!"
Duan Lingtian was filled with shock.
Previously, when Duan Lingtian obtained the three Formation Compasses in the Moon Illumination Sect, he had only used the Formation Compass that could set up the Illusory Formation.
As for the other two Formation Compasses, one of them had yet to be repaired while the other one was almost fully repaired. According to Huo Lao, it would take at most half a year to repair it.
However, Duan Lingtian who possessed the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Devilseal Tablet was not very reliant on the Formation Compasses. Due to this reason, he was not in a hurry to repair it.
Huo Lao had said that the three Formation Compasses would be of great help to him as long as he had sufficient energy.
Of course, Huo Lao had also said that the three Formation Discs were not as helpful to him as the Jasper Celestial Sword … However, the difference was that the Jasper Celestial Sword consumed a lot of energy. As for the Formation Discs, they did not consume the energy in his body.
Therefore, although Duan Lingtian did not rely on the formation plates, he still hoped that Huo Lao could fix them. Perhaps they would be of use in the future.
"Isn't the effect of this illusion array too realistic?"
"Unbelievable! I felt like I was really stepping on this chess piece … If I squatted down, I could reach out and touch this chess piece! What kind of illusion array is this? It's so miraculous! "
"I can be sure that the chess pieces under our feet aren't real. But even if they aren't real, there's some sort of power that's materializing into chess pieces that's supporting us … This is the first time I've seen such an illusory formation in my life. I guess I haven't lived in vain."
"These ten chess pieces are the venue for the Rising Sky Ranking Battle?"
…
Duan Lingtian shuddered when he heard the commotion. He quickly regained his senses and shifted his attention back to Ren Zhong.
Although there were two people presiding over the Rising Sky Ranking Battle, Liu Hong Guang did not say anything apart from introducing himself. Ren Zhong was the one who spoke the whole time. Due to this reason … Almost everyone present on the scene acknowledged Ren Zhong as the host.
As for Liu Hong Guang, it was as though he had been forgotten.
However, Liu Hong Guang did not seem to care much about this. He stood quietly next to Ren Zhong and faced the situation calmly.
"Everyone, the ten chess pieces in front of you are the venue for the Rising Sky Ranking Battle … You can treat the ten chess pieces as ten arenas. These ten arenas will give birth to ten Ring Masters!"
At this moment, Ren Zhong continued to speak.
"Anyone who's qualified to participate in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle can challenge any of the Ring Masters. As long as you can defeat him, you'll be able to replace him and become the new Ring Master.
Any of the ten Ring Masters will be considered to have advanced if no one challenges them within a day. They'll be qualified to participate in the real Rising Sky Ranking Battle … If they don't become the Ring Master, they won't be qualified to participate in the real Rising Sky Ranking Battle. "
…
Ren Zhong continued to speak.
The real Rising Sky Ranking Battle!
Although his words were a little exaggerated, they were not wrong.
Although it could be said that the Rising Sky Ranking Battle would take place in the following days, more than 90% of them were not fated to be ranked in the Rising Sky Ranking. This was because the Rising Sky Ranking would only take in ten people every time since ancient times, and this time was no exception.
Only the final ten Ring Masters would be listed in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle.
In other words, the final battle between the ten Ring Masters would be the real Rising Sky Ranking Battle since they would be competing for a specific ranking in the Rising Sky Ranking.
"Now, everyone, please retreat to the edge of your chess pieces and empty the space in the middle. Then, anyone who meets the requirements can go to the middle of the chess pieces and become the Ring Master. You can wait for your opponent or challenge the current Ring Master."
Ren Zhong's voice resonated again. At this moment, the people on the ten chess pieces began to retreat to the edge.
At the same time, the vast space in the middle of the ten chess pieces was emptied.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
At this moment, an ear-piercing sound of wind whistling reverberated in the air. Five people from the Sky Hurdle Mansion and five people from the Raging Wave Mansion walked out. A total of ten people appeared on top of the ten chess pieces respectively as they looked down at the ground.
It was as though they were divided into ten people who corresponded to the ten chess pieces to monitor the situation.
"Liu Hong Guang, the Second Elder of Raging Wave Mansion and I will be the main hosts of the Rising Sky Ranking Battle this year. As for the others, they'll be the vice hosts of the Rising Sky Ranking Battle this year. Each of them will be in charge of one chess piece, which is also a ring. As for their responsibilities, apart from checking the age of the participants, they'll also have to ensure the fairness of each ring, "Ren Zhong said.
Everyone was enlightened.
At this moment, everyone present on the scene finally understood.
Earlier, many people were still thinking that the Rising Sky Ranking Battle would be divided into ten spots at the same time. Each time, there would be twenty people fighting at the same time.
If there were only two hosts, Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang, even if they could manage it, would they be able to interfere?
If there were six or seven spots at the same time, would they be able to intervene in time even though they were strong?
Many people were skeptical about this.
However, when they saw the addition of ten vice hosts, they finally understood. As it turned out, the Sky Hurdle Mansion and Raging Wave Mansion had long been prepared. There was no need for them to worry at all.
"Is it finally going to start?"
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself as he hugged his sword and stood at the corner of one of the black chess pieces.
