Special Preliminaries
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation After hearing his disciple's words, Saint Emperor Hei Yun remained silent for a while.
"Heh, it seems like he's a scheming brat!"
Saint Emperor Hei Yun chuckled. Knowing his master's personality, Saint Emperor Hei Yun finally relaxed.
Because he knew that his master had aroused killing intent towards Qin Shaofeng at this moment.
Qin Shaofeng was dead meat!
However, Saint Emperor Hei Yun still hesitated. He looked at his master and said softly, "Master, Qin Shaofeng deserves to die, but it doesn't seem like a good time to kill him."
Indeed, as the champion of the Black Tiger Hall, Qin Shaofeng had come to the Black Cloud Mansion to participate in the preliminaries. If he were to suddenly die in the Black Cloud Mansion, it would be hard to explain.
Saint Emperor Hei Yun was very worried about this.
"It's fine!"
The Black Cloud Saint Emperor waved his hand and said disapprovingly, "The preliminaries held in my Black Cloud Mansion this time are slightly different from your preliminaries. Even if I did something, no one would be able to find out!"
"This time, Qin Shaofeng will definitely die in the preliminaries!"
… …
After staying in the residence arranged by the Black Cloud Mansion for three days, Qin Shaofeng discovered that the other contestants who had passed the preliminaries had all arrived one after another.
There were thirty-six halls in the Black Cloud Mansion. Every twelve halls would hold a preliminary round, and twelve people would be selected from each preliminary round. This was where this contestant was currently staying. Currently, thirty-six different geniuses from all thirty-six halls of the Black Cloud Mansion had gathered here.
The weakest among them was an Earth Saint!
Three days' time was enough for Qin Shaofeng to understand the situation of everyone here.
Excluding himself, the weakest among the thirty-six participants was in the second stage of the Earth Saint Realm, and the strongest was in the tenth stage of the Earth Saint Realm!
This was one stage higher than Shao Yunjie, who had consumed the elixir.
If it was just these contestants, then Qin Shaofeng had enough confidence to take first place in this estimate.
However, these 36 people were not the only ones participating in the preliminaries.
Qin Shaofeng had also heard that the Black Cloud Mansion would send out a large number of disciples in addition to the thirty-six of them.
Previously, Qin Shaofeng was quite puzzled. In the third phase of the 'Master of Nine Clouds' mission, he had to defeat all the disciples of the Black Cloud Mansion in the preliminaries. But now, there were thirty-six of them, and none of them were disciples of the Black Cloud Mansion!
At this moment, Qin Shaofeng finally understood that his group of thirty-six was only a small part of the team. Perhaps the main force was still the disciples of the Black Cloud Mansion.
However, when Qin Shaofeng found out about the number of disciples the Black Cloud Mansion would send to participate in the preliminaries and the rules of the preliminaries, he was slightly unhappy.
Apart from Qin Shaofeng and the other thirty-six disciples, the Black Cloud Mansion had sent another one hundred disciples to participate in the preliminaries.
In other words, if Qin Shaofeng wanted to complete the third phase of the 'Master of Nine Clouds' mission, he would have to defeat all one hundred disciples of the Black Cloud Mansion.
But the problem was that this was not easy.
Among the hundred disciples sent by the Black Cloud Mansion, even the weakest one was in the third or fourth stage of the Earth Saint realm. Even the seventh or eighth stage of the Earth Saint realm was quite common. There were even quite a few disciples in the Sky Saint realm.
Logically speaking, even if this was the case, Qin Shaofeng was still confident.
After all, even if the Black Cloud Mansion's disciples were at the peak of the Sky Saint realm, Qin Shaofeng was still confident that he could defeat them.
The problem was that the rules of the preliminaries were slightly different this time.
This time, the preliminaries were different from the previous ones, where the participants would fight one-on-one in the arena.
This time, the preliminaries were a competition between one hundred and thirty-six people at the same time!
The rules of the preliminaries were as follows: the one hundred and thirty-six participants would enter a special secret realm, and each person would be given an identity token.
Each person's identity token would have a point, and if they were defeated, the point would go to the winner.
At the same time, no matter how many points they had on their identity token, if they were defeated, their points would be emptied and would be taken by the winner.
However, even if they were defeated, they could still continue to gain points, provided that they were not killed by their opponents!
Then, the preliminaries would determine the ranking of the participants based on their points.
The identity token was connected to the outside world. Once the person with the identity token died, the outside world would know. If there were only 36 people left in the secret realm, they would be able to determine the number of people who would go to the headquarters to participate in the final selection.
Of course, this did not mean that there would only be thirty-six people left.
This was because each person's identity token had a chance to be teleported out. Once they used it, they would be teleported out, and the preliminaries would end on their own.
However, this way, they would be able to keep their points.
If they were lucky, they might even be able to surpass the top thirty-six in the final round and obtain a spot to go to the Main Palace.
However, this kind of competition was a problem for Qin Shaofeng.
Not only was there a problem, but it was also a big problem.
Competing in the same secret realm at the same time?
The Black Cloud Mansion had a total of one hundred disciples!
Qin Shaofeng did not believe that the Black Cloud Saint Emperor did not order the hundred disciples to form a team to kill him after the preliminaries began.
This situation was far from good!
But even in such a situation, Qin Shaofeng could only brace himself for now.
Moreover, in such a situation, it was not as if he did not have a chance.
After thoroughly understanding the contents of the preliminaries, Qin Shaofeng felt helpless, but he did not give up.
"If it really doesn't work, I'll just activate the identity token to be teleported out!"
Qin Shaofeng muttered softly in the end.
However, this was only the last resort. If possible, Qin Shaofeng would not give up so easily.
This was because the preliminaries were related to the outcome of the two major missions that he had on him.
…
"What the f * ck! This Saint Emperor Hei Yun is so f * cking shameless! He actually tampered with my identity token!"
In a dense forest, Qin Shaofeng cursed as he used the Sky Dance Technique to increase his speed. He quickly fled into the distance.
At this moment, behind Qin Shaofeng, there were more than ten figures chasing after him at lightning speed.
This was a special secret realm in the Black Cloud Mansion. It covered an area of ten thousand miles and was filled with special vegetation and trees that blocked mental strength. Moreover, this secret realm did not have a trace of spiritual energy.
In short, this was the worst place for all cultivators.
Back when the Nine Cloud Mansion was still around, some experts had purposely modified an ordinary mystic realm into a mystic realm so that their disciples could train and gain experience.
Yet now, it had been chosen by Saint Emperor Hei Yun to be the location of this preliminary round.
That's right, the preliminaries had already begun!
To be precise, it had already been two hours since the preliminaries began!
However, what made Qin Shaofeng furious was that he was directly sent to a place with twenty to thirty people even though it was clearly a random teleportation.
These twenty to thirty people were naturally part of the hundred disciples from the Black Cloud Mansion. The Black Cloud Saint Emperor must have secretly done something to them to be teleported here.
Even so, Qin Shaofeng could do nothing about it.
This was because even if he used this as an excuse, the Black Cloud Saint Emperor could still say that it was random.
Who said that he could not be teleported to a place with twenty to thirty people?
Therefore, even if he knew that it was the Black Cloud Saint Emperor's doing, there was nothing Qin Shaofeng could do.
Most importantly, the Black Cloud Saint Emperor clearly wanted to keep him in this secret realm. So what if he knew something that violated the rules?
If he wanted to report it, he would have to return alive!
Fortunately, Little Ball immediately sensed that something was wrong and immediately warned Qin Shaofeng. This allowed Qin Shaofeng to make some preparations in advance.
At that moment, Qin Shaofeng was incomparably glad. On the day before the preliminaries began, Qin Shaofeng recalled the thousand Common Skills that he had accumulated over the past three months, allowing his skill proficiency to reach over nine hundred thousand points.
Then, Qin Shaofeng saw that with so many skill proficiency points, it was just enough to upgrade the Sky Dance Technique to level 6. Therefore, he subconsciously upgraded the Sky Dance Technique.
But now, it seemed that this move was incomparably correct.
Sky Dance Technique: Ten Thousand, God Rank Active Skill. Allows the user to freely move and fly in the air without being restricted by gravity! Has the skills Haste and Instant Flash.
Currently at level 6, allows the user to fly within five thousand meters at a speed of five hundred meters per second. Requires Saint Origin Points. Level 6 Sky Dance Technique consumes one million Saint Origin Points per minute.
Haste: Sky Dance Technique's special skill. After use, the user's speed will increase by five times for ten minutes. Can be used three times per day at current level.
Instant Flash: Sky Dance Technique's special skill. After use, the user can instantly move to any location within three thousand meters. Can be used once per day at current level.
As soon as he entered the secret realm, Qin Shaofeng immediately activated the Magical Divine Ring after discovering the Black Cloud Mansion's disciples with Little Ball's warning.
Then, a terrifying seventy-two Thousand Mountain Fist Shadows burst out.
But Qin Shaofeng didn't even look at the effect of this attack. He directly used the Sky Dance Technique's Instant Flash.
The Instant Flash ability awakened from the Sky Dance Technique at level 6 was basically teleportation!
Although the range was only three thousand meters, it could play a huge role in a critical moment, such as when he was surrounded.
The Instant Flash allowed Qin Shaofeng to successfully teleport three thousand meters away. Then, Qin Shaofeng used the Sky Dance Technique and directly entered the Haste state, increasing his speed by five times as he madly fled into the distance.
At this moment, Qin Shaofeng was incomparably glad that he did what he did.
After all, there were more than a dozen Sky Saint Stage experts chasing after him!
"Damn it, it seems that Black Cloud Saint Emperor is determined to get rid of me!"
Looking at the dozen people chasing after him, Qin Shaofeng secretly shouted in a low voice, his eyes full of anger.
"En, you're right!" Little Ball's voice suddenly appeared in Qin Shaofeng's mind.
Hearing Little Ball's voice, Qin Shaofeng hurriedly asked, "Little Ball, how is it? Did my identity token get tampered with? "
"Who would have thought that it was as simple as a little trick!"
