Following Xuanji Shanhai's words, everyone began to speculate.
Who would be joining them in the next round?
Could he be a martial arts cultivator participating in the Southern Academy of Heavenly Mandate or the Eastern Academy of Heavenly Mandate? Or was he a disciple of the younger generation of the Northern Academy of Heavenly Mandate Realm?
They could not guess it, but Xuanji Shan Hai did not hide it. He said straightforwardly, "The next round of the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection will be held at the Dragon Bone Tower. Many disciples who originally belonged to the Northern Academy of Heavenly Mandate will enter the tower at the same time as you."
The Ancient Dragon Bone Tower!
A disciple of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm!
The crowd burst into an uproar when they heard this.
Although they didn't know what the Dragon Bone Tower was, there were many disciples who originally belonged to the Northern Academy of Heavenly Mandate Academy who entered the tower this time!
This obviously meant that they were facing fierce competition.
"Give me a simple explanation."
Xuanji Shan Hai raised his hand to silence everyone. He then explained, "The Ancient Dragon Bone Tower is a dilapidated building from another world. It's located between the seventeenth and eighteenth levels of the Heavenly Dipper Realm. The interior of the Ancient Dragon Skeleton Tower is an independent space. So far, we've explored a total of six levels. There are many treasures from other worlds in these six levels. "
A dilapidated building from another world?
Everyone was clearly puzzled when they heard that. The Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, a dilapidated structure from an alternate world, actually appeared between the seventeenth and eighteenth levels of the Heavenly Dipper Rankings. It was clear that heading to the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower would not be an easy task.
Without a doubt, Bei Tianyi, the head of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, would definitely appear again to build a bridge and bring everyone to the Dragon Bone Tower.
"Of course, there are treasures and fortuitous encounters in the Ancient Dragon Skeleton Pagoda. Naturally, there will be dangers as well."
Xuanji Shan Hai continued: "The first floor of the ancient pagoda can be entered at any time, anywhere. There is nothing left to explore. Starting from the second level of the ancient tower, it is not easy to enter. Every seven years, the gate leading to the second level of the ancient tower will be opened. Because of this, the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection is held once every seven years. "
"Every time the door is opened, it will not be open for more than a month. After a month, the door will close. If you are still in the ancient pagoda, you will not be able to come out. Do you understand?"
Everyone naturally understood what Xuanji Shan Hai meant.
They could only stay in the Dragon Bone Tower for a month. After a month, they had to come out. Otherwise, even Bei Tianyi, the head of the Northern Academy of Heavenly Mandate, could not save them.
"Next, I will explain this ancient dragon skeleton tower in detail …"
Xuanji Shan Hai began to give a lengthy introduction.
It turned out that the Dragon Bone Ancient Tower was discovered by the seniors of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm in the Tiangang Level a long time ago. They entered the tower and obtained many treasures from the Otherworld.
Before long, everything on the first floor of the Ancient Dragon Skeleton Tower had been plundered clean.
The discovery of the second floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower happened a few years later. Someone happened to be seeking refuge in the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower and discovered that the door to the second floor was open. Out of curiosity, he stepped in.
From then on, they discovered that there were still some creatures from another world left in the higher levels of the Dragon Bone Tower. Their combat strength was rather brutal.
The higher the level of the otherworld creatures, the more terrifying their strength. So far, the highest number of people had reached the sixth floor of the ancient dragon skeleton tower.
On the sixth floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, any creatures from another world that appeared would be as powerful as a Worldly Elite or a Worldly Elite!
There were six levels in the Worldly Elite Realm.
Worldly Elite Realm, Worldly Elite Realm, Human Tribulation Realm.
Worldly Elite Realm, Worldly Elite Realm, Heavenly Tribulation Realm.
The difference between each level was even greater than the difference between each level of the True Spirit Realm. Even someone like Ji Tianqi belonged to the weakest level, the Worldly Elite Realm.
On the sixth floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, none of the 400 people who participated in the Selection of Saints could deal with creatures from another world that had reached the Worldly Elite Realm.
Moreover, it was said that there was a seventh floor in the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. It was just that no one who entered the seventh floor had ever returned.
Even the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm Chief, Bei Tianyi, who had entered the Worldly Elite Realm a long time ago, did not dare to head to the seventh floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower carelessly.
"Every time the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower opens, the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm will send around 500 Worldly Elite Cultivators in to explore. In the end, less than 150 people will come out."
Xuanji Shan Hai glanced at the crowd and said plainly, "The Ancient Dragon Bone Tower is fraught with danger. There is a high chance of losing your life. If you're afraid of death, you can give up now. Of course, giving up on entering the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower means giving up on the chance to join the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. You can think about it carefully! "
Less than 150 people came out of 500 people who entered.
It seemed that the mortality rate in the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower was as high as 70%. Moreover, even a powerful cultivator like Bei Tianyi would not be able to protect the Worldly Elite Cultivators who entered the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. Otherwise, there would not be such a high mortality rate.
Once they entered the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, they could only rely on themselves and hope for the best!
There were probably only a handful of Worldly Elite Cultivators who could disregard their own life and death.
Some people, such as Yu Qianning, did not think much about joining the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm in the first place. To them, it was not worth it to lose their lives just for a chance to join the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
However, some people saw even more opportunities in the process.
Although the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower was dangerous, there were countless opportunities hidden within as well. Many treasures from another world were waiting for them to discover.
If they were lucky, wouldn't they be able to obtain something good from within and greatly increase their strength?
At that moment, everyone began to ponder whether they should enter the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
"Long Yu, are you going in?"
Man Xin asked Long Yu.
"Of course."
Long Yu nodded without hesitation.
To him, joining the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm was a goal that he had to achieve. He had to know what had happened to his father, Long Zaitian, after coming to the Northern Academy!
"Haha, I think the same."
Man Xin laughed heartily, but his eyes were filled with worry. "My entire family is waiting for me to report the good news. If I don't join the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, my entire family will be in trouble … So, I have to give it a try no matter what!"
That was indeed the case.
Not to mention the fact that he had offended the little prince of Gu Meng, Meng Duo Kai, the past events alone were enough to put the entire Man Family in an extremely difficult situation.
If he could join the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, everything would change!
Man Xin had to give it a try for this opportunity.
As for Yan Huanmo, she wanted to know where her brother was now, so the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm was the place she had to enter.
"Elder Yan, if your brother joins the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, you might be able to see him in this round."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and suddenly said.
The opportunity to enter the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower in this round was not only a chance for them to participate in the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection, but also a chance for the disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
"It's been so long. I wonder how he is now …"
Yan Huanmo thought of her brother.
Back then, her brother killed her father, left the family, and joined the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. It had been 14 years since then. During these 14 years, the entire Yan Family had declined and ceased to exist.
Yan Huan Mo, on the other hand, was still searching for her brother!
There would be many disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm entering the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower in this round. Maybe Yan Huanmo's brother would really be among them.
"I'll give you three days to think about it. It's up to you to decide whether to stay or leave."
Xuanji Shan Hai turned around and left.
More than four hundred people were whispering to each other as they dispersed.
…
Three days later, less than half of the martial arts practitioners gathered in the square of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
No matter how he counted, there were only a little over one hundred and ninety people.
More than 200 people chose to retreat and leave the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
Many of those who retreated knew that it was impossible for them to join the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. There was no need for them to take the risk. Moreover, they had gained a lot from the Sand Table of the Heavenly Mandate Realm and had the mentality to quit while they were ahead.
Moreover, they would be entering the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower together with many disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
The disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm were definitely much stronger than them. If a conflict broke out after entering the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, they would most likely be the unlucky ones.
After considering all the reasons, there were only 190 people left who wanted to enter the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
Xuanji Shan Hai appeared in front of the crowd and glanced at them. When he saw Long Yu, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Very good. The rest of you did not disappoint me. Next, I'll explain the rules for calculating the score for this round."
If Long Yu had run away, Xuanji Shan Hai would have sent someone to kill him and be done with it.
Now that Long Yu was about to enter the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, Xuanji Shan Hai had made enough arrangements even though it would be a little troublesome to deal with him.
The rules were soon announced.
There were many treasures from the Otherworld buried in the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. These treasures were divided into several levels by the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. Treasures of a certain level would be graded accordingly.
The higher the level of the treasure, the more points it could bring to the martial arts practitioners.
According to the rules, half of these treasures had to be handed over to the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
"I wonder what the treasures from the Otherworld are like and what use they have?"
Long Yu was a little puzzled.
He had seen the beasts from the Otherworld, which were indeed very different from the lives in this world. He wondered what the treasures from the Otherworld were like.
In any case, Long Yu should be able to see them very soon.
Then, another group of people rushed toward the square of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm from other directions. There were hundreds of them, talking and laughing, and it was very lively.
"The disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm are here!"
Beside Long Yu, many people pointed at the group and whispered to each other.
The disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm!
Long Yu turned his head and looked in that direction. At a glance, he saw that the person in the lead was the one who had snatched the little fox Chihuo — Xuanji Tianchen!
"Sure enough, he's here."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes.
And beside Xuanji Tianchen, a devilish red-haired man wearing a mask also attracted Long Yu's attention.
From this devilish red-haired man, Long Yu felt a familiar aura.
