The higher-ups of the Machine Field turned a deaf ear to the clamor of the common people. They knew that they couldn't listen to the words of the common people. If the Machine Field's current top 100 were to die, then they wouldn't be able to compete for the Machine Field's benefits in the Six Realms Beginner Competition.
If the Machine Field can't get more benefits, then they would only get weaker and weaker. When the time comes, they would only be bullied by others. Fighting now would bring immeasurable losses in the future. This was something that the higher-ups of the Machine Field didn't want to see.
In fact, whether it was the Machine Field's ordinary people or the Machine Field's higher-ups, they didn't consider Ascenders as part of the Machine Field. In their minds, Ascenders were just tools. The difference was that some of these tools were useful while some of them were useless.
Naturally, Zhao Hai and the others were useful tools in the eyes of the higher-ups. Therefore, they couldn't be sacrificed.
Of course, Zhao Hai was aware of the disturbance outside, but he didn't take it to heart. For him, these people from the Cultivation Realm weren't enough. If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to expose his strength, he would have already run out and exterminated all of them.
Naturally, Zhao Hai only thought about it. He wouldn't really do it. This was because there was no need to do so. For Zhao Hai, killing people would only benefit him. He didn't want to kill people for no reason.
At this time, Zhao Hai was practicing his magic inside the Space every day. He was proficiently using Liquid Silver. At the same time, he was also practicing his body tempering fist in the Yellow Sand Territory.
Zhao Hai knew that with his current strength, he couldn't run amok in the Machine Field. Therefore, he needed to increase his strength as soon as possible. Body tempering fist was undoubtedly a good method.
The Cultivators slowly retreated. Because of the Machine Field's shameless tactics, they couldn't do anything about it. Therefore, most of them left. Only a few people remained in the Machine Field. They wanted to see if there were any other opportunities.
With the retreat of the Cultivators, the Machine Field also restored its calm. It was impossible for people to focus on one thing for too long, especially when it had nothing to do with them.
The storm calmed down. This was what the higher-ups of the Machine Field wanted to see. Now, they didn't want the participants to be disturbed. This was because the higher-ups of the Machine Field were very interested in the Six Realms Newcomer Competition.
In the Six Realms Newcomer Competition, there were Zhao Hai, Streep, Xiong Li, Dongfang Yu, Zhu Chen, and Lei Xiaotian. It can be said that these newcomers were the strongest newcomers in the Machine Field in recent decades.
In the past, the Machine Field participated in the Six Realms Newcomer Competition as a sparring partner. There were a total of 600 participants. It was very likely that only 400 to 500 of them would be able to enter the competition. Even if some of them managed to enter, their ranking would be very low. It can be said that they lost face for the Machine Field. At the same time, the Machine Field didn't get any valuable resources.
Among the newcomers, Zhao Hai was the strongest. He was able to take three sword strikes from the Cultivation Realm's tenth expert without being defeated. This was definitely a breakthrough. This was because the Cultivation Realm's tenth expert was equivalent to the tenth place in the Six Realms Newcomer Competition.
Although Zhao Hai only managed to block three sword strikes from Li Chuchen, the Machine Field's higher-ups saw hope. They wanted Zhao Hai and the other newcomers to show off. They wanted them to gain some glory and also some resources.
Days passed by and the date of the Six Realms Newcomer Competition was approaching. The Cultivators who stayed in the Machine Field to wait for an opportunity saw that the Machine Field was a coward. Therefore, they gave up and returned to the Cultivation Realm. After all, compared to the Cultivation Realm, the Machine Field's resources were much more scarce. It wasn't good for their cultivation.
The departure of the Cultivators allowed the Machine Field's higher-ups to relax. The Machine Field returned to its previous calm state as they waited for the Six Realms Newcomer Competition to begin.
Zhao Hai didn't end his seclusion just because the Cultivators left. He still announced that he was in seclusion and hadn't come out. This made those who were observing Zhao Hai believe that he was really injured. After all, it wasn't easy to take three sword strikes from the Cultivation Realm's tenth expert.
The Ashley Family didn't come forward to clarify this matter. In their opinion, there was no need to do so. Although there were still a lot of people observing Zhao Hai, there weren't as many people as before.
After another month, Zhao Hai finally announced that he was coming out of seclusion. It wasn't that he didn't want to continue his seclusion, but that he couldn't. This was because everyone had to gather to participate in the Six Realms Newcomer Competition.
Although there was still more than a month before the Six Realms Newcomer Competition, according to their previous practice, they should set out now.
Just as Zhao Hai announced that he was coming out of seclusion, Xiong Li and the others arrived. Xiong Li and the others wanted to see if Zhao Hai was really injured. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been in seclusion for so long. Now that they saw that Zhao Hai was fine, they felt relieved.
After Xiong Li and the others left, Cadjo and the others immediately called Zhao Hai to his room. Cadjo looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Little Hai, how's your cultivation going?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "General Manager can rest assured, there won't be any problems. This time, I can guarantee that I'll enter the top 100 of the Six Realms Newcomer Competition."
Cadjo smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If you can't do it, don't try to be brave. The Patriarch is already very satisfied with your performance."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Rest assured, General Manager, I know. Right, how are we going to the Machine Field this time? By flying ships? When are we leaving? "
Cadjo shook his head and said, "We're not going to take a ship. This time, we're going to use transmission formations. You'll need to rest in the Cultivation Realm for about a month. This is also a rule."
Hearing Cadjo, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare as he said, "Rest in the Cultivation Realm for a month? What rule is this? Isn't this sending a sheep to the tiger's den? What if people from the Cultivation Realm come to challenge us during this month? "
Cadjo shook his head and said, "You don't need to worry about this. People from the Cultivation Realm wouldn't challenge you. This is because the concentration of spiritual qi in the Cultivation Realm is different compared to the Machine Field. Therefore, you'll need to go there a month in advance to adapt to the environment. Moreover, the Cultivation Realm has a rule that nobody is allowed to challenge you during this period."
Zhao Hai was still frowning. He didn't believe the words of the Cultivation Realm. The Machine Field was weak in front of the Cultivation Realm. Weak countries don't have diplomacy, this was a very obvious truth. Although the Cultivation Realm said that they wouldn't send people to challenge them, they still had countless ways to make the Machine Field accept the challenge. This was a very simple truth.
Cadjo looked at Zhao Hai and knew what he was thinking. He sighed and said, "I know what you're thinking, but don't think too much about it. These are the rules. You need to be careful when you go there." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, alright.
Zhao Hai looked at Cadjo and said, "You won't be going this time, right?"
Cadjo nodded and said, "Yes, we won't be going. This time, only 150 people will be going to the Cultivation Realm. You 100 contestants as well as 50 leaders. These 50 leaders are experts from the three major powers. The leader is Heaven Splitting Blade Ma Rulong."
When Zhao Hai heard Cadjo, he couldn't help but stare. He knew about Heaven Splitting Saber Ma Rulong. Ma Rulong wasn't an Ascender, he was a native of the Machine Field. Generally speaking, natives of the Machine Field rarely practice martial arts. However, Ma Rulong was an exception. He loved martial arts since he was a child. Moreover, his family was one of the most powerful families in the Warrior Association. His family also had a tradition of practicing martial arts. But since he was a core member of the family, he naturally didn't practice martial arts. Ma Rulong, on the other hand, wanted to practice martial arts, and in the end, he was able to succeed.
Ma Rulong was best at using a sword with a ghost head. Now, he was already at the level of a seventh level warrior. It was said that he once fought with a Gold Core Stage master in the Cultivation World and didn't fall into a disadvantageous position. From this, one could see his strength.
Ma Rulong also had a problem. He didn't have any prejudice towards Ascenders. Perhaps it was because he practiced martial arts, but he still had a good impression of Ascenders. He was very protective of Ascenders. With him leading the team, there was no need to worry about Cultivators making things difficult for them.
Zhao Hai said, "I didn't expect Senior Heaven Splitting Blade to lead the team. It seems like we don't have to worry about anything. General Manager, when do we leave?"
Cadjo replied, "We'll leave the day after tomorrow. Although Ma Rulong is leading the team, you still need to be careful. Sometimes, Ma Rulong won't be able to protect you. After all, you're going to the Cultivation Realm. That's the domain of the Cultivators, not ours. It's best to be careful."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "General Manager, don't worry. I know what to do. You don't need to worry."
Cadjo sighed, then he walked to Zhao Hai's side and patted Zhao Hai's shoulder as he said, "Remember, ensuring your own safety is the most important thing. Even if you don't think about yourself, you still need to think about Margaret. Even if your results aren't ideal, the Family wouldn't blame you. After all, you've become the Machine Field's number one newcomer. Such a result has exceeded the Patriarch's expectations."
Zhao Hai replied, "General Manager, don't worry. I'll be careful. I'll be fine."
Cadjo nodded, then he said, "Go out for a walk. Let those people take a look at you. Don't let them think that you're injured."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Alright, I'll be leaving soon. I'll have Margaret play on the Machine Planet for the next two days. This time, I haven't had the chance to play with her since I arrived."
Cadjo chuckled and said, "Alright, then go. You're now the richest person in the Family. It's unreasonable for you to be reluctant to spend money."
Zhao Hai chuckled and didn't say anything. He couldn't tell Cadjo that he didn't care about the things sold outside. If he needed something, he could just take it from the Space. Even if the Space didn't have it, he could still use the machine to make it. It was better than buying it outside.
