"The Outer Palace Competition of the Hundred Years …"
"Third place … Chi Xiao …" The voice dragged out and echoed loudly. Everyone was extremely excited and deeply remembered this moment. This name and this scene were like a brand.
Chi Xiao was not happy at all. There was no other way. He was aiming for the first place. Even if he could not get the first place, he could get the second place. Who would have thought that other than Nan Wu, who he regarded as a strong enemy, there would be a super dark horse like Luo Qiushui who could fight with him.
What was even more unexpected was that Chu Mu, who was even scarier than Luo Qiushui, had appeared. He had defeated him, swept his opponents one by one, defeated Luo Qiushui, and finally defeated Nan Wu, making Nan Wu admit defeat.
Although he was unwilling to accept the third place, it was his strength. He had no choice but to accept it.
"Moreover, the reward for the third place should be pretty good." Chi Xiao comforted himself.
Although there was a reward, it had not been announced yet. Therefore, everyone was looking forward to seeing what the reward was and how helpful it would be to them. Those who did not receive any reward were just there to join in the fun and exclaim.
"Second place … Nan Wu …"
Following the announcement, Nan Wu stood up from his seat. His eyes seemed to be out of focus as he entered the state of mind again.
Before the first place was announced, countless cheers were like a huge wave that almost overturned the Half Virtual Realm.
"First place … Chu Mu …"
The ending was dragged out and the echoes were endless. Within the Half Virtual Realm of the Outer Palace, the sound was like thunder.
Chu Mu stood up amidst countless cheers and applause. When the competition started, no one knew who the final winner would be.
Next, the rewards were announced.
Only the top ten in the Outer Palace Competition of the Hundred Years would receive rewards. The rewards for the fourth place to the tenth place were the same. The focus was on the rewards for the top three places.
The rewards for the fourth place to the tenth place were announced first.
There were a hundred bottles of Lower Grade True Desolation Elixirs, ten pills in each bottle for a total of one thousand pills. Ten bottles of Middle Grade True Desolation Elixirs, ten pills in each bottle for a total of one hundred pills. One bottle of Upper Grade True Desolation Elixirs, ten pills in each bottle.
Outer Palace disciples usually used low-grade True Desolation Pills. Mid-grade True Desolation Pills were worth several times more than low-grade True Desolation Pills. High-grade True Desolation Pills were worth several times more than mid-grade True Desolation Pills.
In other words, a single high-grade True Desolate Dan was equivalent to dozens of low-grade True Desolate Dan. However, no one was willing to use high-grade True Desolate Dan to exchange for it, even if it was one to one hundred. This was because high-grade True Desolate Dan's medicinal strength was purer and its effects were better.
The reward of this pill alone was enough to make many outer palace disciples green with envy. Not only that, there were other rewards as well.
One million supreme-grade desolate stones, one hundred thousand outer palace contribution points, one spirit congealing pill, the opportunity to be accepted as a disciple by a true palace elder, and so on.
The last point was the most important. Every single True Palace Elder was a powerful existence. It was the dream of many to be able to become a disciple of a True Palace Elder.
If he had a Sword Saint as his teacher and received guidance from him, he would definitely be able to avoid many detours and reach a higher level faster than others.
All in all, the benefits of being accepted as a disciple by a True Palace Elder far exceeded the previous few rewards.
As for the spirit congealing pill, it was a high-end pill that was rare and precious. It was used to assist in the breakthrough of the God Congealing Realm, allowing one's mind power to be converted into Spiritual Sense Power faster. It could also help a swordsman to be familiar with Spiritual Sense Power faster.
The rewards for the fourth to tenth places were announced. Next was the reward for the third place.
Everyone's ears immediately perked up.
The reward for the third place was almost doubled. Other than two hundred bottles of low-grade True Desolation Pills, twenty bottles of mid-grade True Desolation Pills, and two bottles of high-grade True Desolation Pills, there were also two million supreme-grade desolate stones, two hundred thousand outer palace contribution points, one spirit congealing pill, and the opportunity to be accepted as a disciple by a True Palace Elder. There was also another reward.
The third level of the Heavenly Desolation Sword Technique and the third level of the Heavenly Desolation Sword Body!
The third level of the Heavenly Desolation Sword Technique and the third level of the Heavenly Desolation Sword Body corresponded to the God Congealing Realm. However, breaking through to the God Congealing Realm and becoming an inner palace disciple could not be obtained immediately. One had to exchange for it through one's own efforts and contribution points.
That was not an easy task. Often, a swordsman who had just become an inner palace disciple would need to spend one, two, or even three years to exchange for the third level of the Heavenly Desolation Sword Technique and the third level of the Heavenly Desolation Sword Body.
Receiving the reward now was equivalent to saving at least one year after becoming an inner palace disciple. It could even be two or three years.
To a genius, one year was also very important. It was enough to pull away from other geniuses.
Next was the reward for the second place.
The reward for the third place was all given to the second place, and it was almost doubled. Finally, there was an additional reward that the third place did not have, a Heaven Comprehension Pill.
The Heaven Comprehension Pill was a pill that could only be refined by an Alchemy Grandmaster. It was more than ten times more precious than the spirit congealing pill. Its effect was to improve one's comprehension ability for a certain period of time and enter a state of epiphany.
The time limit was two hours. In these two hours, one's comprehension ability would increase and one could enter a state of epiphany. The effects of comprehending anything would be excellent.
With this Heaven Comprehension Pill, Nan Wu's strength would improve a lot in a short period of time.
With the reward for the second place being so generous, the reward for the first place would naturally be even more generous.
When the reward for the first place was announced, Chu Mu was also filled with anticipation. The reason for participating in the competition was to fight against powerful opponents and improve oneself, but it was also for the generous reward.
Chu Mu also had the reward for the second place. It was also doubled and even more generous. He believed that the two Heaven Comprehension Pills, if taken at the right time, would definitely have an astonishing effect.
Chu Mu already knew about these rewards. What he was more curious about was the extra reward that no one else had.
There was a chance to enter the Divine Desolate Mystic Realm.
"Divine Desolate Mystic Realm?" Chu Mu was stunned. All the outer palace disciples were also stunned. They had never heard of this place.
The outer palace Elders were also shocked. They did not know about this reward beforehand. It seemed like it had been adjusted.
The inner palace disciples and true palace disciples all trembled. Their faces were filled with shock and then shock and envy.
The Divine Desolate Mystic Realm was a very mysterious place. The inner palace disciples would do anything to enter. There were great opportunities there.
As for the true palace disciples, if they could, they were willing to pay a huge price to enter the Divine Desolate Mystic Realm. Unfortunately, the Divine Desolate Mystic Realm had restrictions. Only Sword Of Gojoseon and below could enter.
In an instant, it was unknown how many people envied Chu Mu. As for Chu Mu himself, he did not know. He only felt that since it was the only reward for the first place of the hundred year competition, it would definitely be very good. It would be better than the other rewards.
"If Chu Mu were to gain something from the Divine Desolate Mystic Realm, in the future …" A true palace disciple sighed. His tone was filled with envy.
"Senior Brother Ren's insight is indeed extraordinary. No one can compare."
The corner of Ren Du Xing's mouth curled up, revealing a smile from the bottom of his heart.
No matter what, Chu Mu was ultimately brought back by him. Saying that they were related to each other didn't mean that they weren't related to each other. When Chu Mu suffered setbacks and humiliation, he would also be mocked by some people. However, Chu Mu's performance wasn't just good, it was extremely good. This made Ren Duxing very happy and proud.
Ren Du Xing was happy, but naturally, there were some people who were unhappy. Their faces darkened.
"The Divine Desolate Mystic Realm is indeed good. However, once you enter, you might lose your life if you are not careful. There is nothing to be proud of." A true palace disciple surnamed He said in a strange tone.
No one paid attention to him. He could not help but feel angry.
After the announcement of the reward, it also meant that the hundred year competition of the outer palace was about to end.
After the battle ended, everyone left the Half Emptiness Realm of the Outer Palace.
As for the ten people who received the reward, they were temporarily left behind. They would receive the reward here. Of course, the opportunity to enter the Divine Desolate Mystic Realm was not a physical object and could not be given out directly.
Among the ten people, Chu Mu's harvest was the most generous. With the reward in hand, his savings had increased by a lot.
"The third level of the Heavenly Desolate Sword Technique and the third level of the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body that you have received can only be cultivated by yourself. You must not spread it to others. Otherwise, you will be punished according to the palace rules." When the rewards were given out, the inner palace elder said to Chu Mu, Nan Wu and Chi Xiao very seriously.
The palace rules were not a joke. A light punishment would be imprisonment for ten or a hundred years. A heavy punishment would be crippling one's cultivation and expelling them from the underground palace. This was crueler and harsher than directly killing them.
Chu Mu and the other two naturally could not violate the palace rules. If they had a cultivation technique, they could cultivate it themselves. If others wanted it, they could exchange it themselves.
Soon, the Half Virtual Realm of the outer palace was almost empty.
The people who received the reward left one by one. Chi Xiao turned and left. Nan Wu also turned and left. Just as Chu Mu was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped.
"Wait a moment." The inner palace elder said.
While Chu Mu was surprised, he did not ask. Instead, he stood where he was and waited.
After a while, in the entire Half Virtual Realm of the outer palace, only Chu Mu and the outer palace elder were left standing on the arena.
"Chu Mu, come with me." The inner palace elder seemed to be listening attentively to something. He said to Chu Mu, grabbed Chu Mu's arm, and soared into the sky.
His speed was as fast as lightning. By the time Chu Mu reacted, he had already soared into the sky.
The inner palace elder was an expert on the level of the Sword Of Gojoseon. This inner palace elder was also a veteran Sword Of Gojoseon expert. His speed was many times faster than Chu Mu's.
His thoughts turned, but Chu Mu's expression remained calm, and he didn't panic.
In the blink of an eye, the inner palace elder's figure stopped and landed on a suspended platform. His attitude became very respectful.
"Greetings, Third Palace Master. Greetings, True Palace Elders." The inner palace elder saluted and said.
He was also an elder, but his strength and status were far inferior to the True Palace Elders.
Chu Mu suddenly realized that he was not allowed to leave. He was brought to see the Third Palace Master and the True Palace Elders. However, he did not know why they had summoned him.
However, no matter what it was, it would be revealed soon. Perhaps it would be a good thing …
