"The Prefecture Tournament will be divided into two stages. The first stage will be the Puppet Underground Palace."
The sky-prides from the Mysterious Nether Territory did not react to the Mountain Flow Mansion powerhouse's words because they did not understand. However, the two hundred sky-prides from the Mountain Flow Mansion were overjoyed.
The Puppet Underground Palace!
They all knew and understood. Moreover, each of them had entered the simulated Puppet Underground Palace to train. Some of them were even lucky enough to enter the real Puppet Underground Palace to train themselves.
They knew, understood, and even experienced it personally. On the contrary, the people from the Mysterious Nether Territory had not. Unknowingly, they had a slight advantage.
Looking at the expressions of the sky-prides from the Mountain Flow Mansion, everyone understood.
"The second stage will be the Sky Peak Capture the Flag."
The people from the Mysterious Nether Territory were even more confused after hearing the Mountain Flow Mansion powerhouse's words. As for the sky-prides from the Mountain Flow Mansion, they were stunned at first. Then, some of them looked enlightened, while others looked overjoyed.
Before this, they had also undergone some training. Although the name of the stage was not mentioned, the words "Sky Peak Capture the Flag" made them think of something.
Could it be that they had been preparing for the Prefecture Tournament?
If that was the case, wouldn't they have a huge advantage?
Even a fool could see that there was something wrong with this scene.
"Sir, aren't you being unfair to the sky-prides from the Mysterious Nether Territory by doing this?" The Great Elder from the Mysterious Nether Palace said directly, his domineering aura spreading out.
The domineering aura of someone at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Stage and ranked in the top ten of the Profound Ranking was extremely intimidating. The expressions of the Mountain Flow Mansion powerhouses changed drastically.
"Fair? How is it unfair? " One of the Mountain Flow Mansion powerhouses immediately retorted with a look of disdain. "The Puppet Underground Palace and the Sky Peak Capture the Flag belong to the Mountain Flow Mansion. Our sky-prides should be training in them. If you think it's unfair, you can withdraw from the Prefecture Tournament."
His words immediately enraged the powerhouses from the Mysterious Nether Territory.
First, they let them stay in the shabby thatched huts. Now, they were being biased in the Prefecture Tournament. They had really gone too far.
Powerful auras emanated from the experts of the Realm of Mysterious Underworld and swept out in all directions like an invisible storm.
There were more than a dozen experts from the Mystic Nether Realm who had escorted them here, and each of them was at least at the Fourth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage. Their furious auras filled the air, causing the sky to darken. It was as if a storm was coming.
"Enough." "This is the Mountain Flow Prefecture. The contents of the Prefectural Tournament are decided by the Prefecture. If you feel that it is unfair, you can appeal." Translator's Thoughts Lam _ Lam _ Lam _ Lam _
This was the voice of the Mountain Flow Prefecture's Manor Head. Since he had spoken, the conclusion was set and could not be changed.
Either that or submit.
If they were not convinced, they could appeal.
Where to appeal?
Naturally, it was the Royal Capital.
After all, the Xuanyuan Saint allowed the five major regions to participate because the experts of the five major regions had fought for the approval of the Xuanyuan Dynasty's royal family.
However, if they really chose this method, it would mean that they would not be able to participate in the Prefecture Tournament and would miss it. Even if the Mountain Flow Prefecture was punished by the Xuanyuan royal family, they would not be able to redeem their qualification to participate in the Prefecture Tournament and would not be able to participate in the Xuanyuan Saint Assembly.
On top of that, it was a critical period for the Xuanyuan Saint Assembly. Even if they appealed, the Xuanyuan royal family might not have the time to care.
After all, the Mountain Flow Prefecture belonged to the Xuanyuan Dynasty and the Mystic Nether Territory did not.
It was like the difference between family and outsiders. Under normal circumstances, they would side with their family.
What should they do?
All the powerhouses looked at the Great Elder of the Mystic Nether Palace. He was the leader of this trip and could make the decision.
Although the Great Elder of the Mystic Nether Palace had a good temper, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. The anger in his chest was like a volcano that was about to erupt, but he had to suppress it.
Once it erupted, he would definitely not be able to participate in the Prefecture Tournament.
In order to allow the prodigies of the Mystic Nether Territory to participate in the Prefecture Tournament, the Mystic Nether Palace's efforts were not in vain.
Endure!
He could only endure!
He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
Silence meant acquiescence.
"Why? Are you still not convinced? If you are, if you still think it's unfair, then get lost, "a powerhouse from the Mountain Flow Prefecture said coldly.
"Yes!" The Great Elder of the Mystic Nether Palace's voice was extremely heavy. Everyone could hear the heavy humiliation in his voice.
In an instant, waves of anger surged in everyone's hearts.
Even though Chen Zong was not a disciple of the Mystic Nether Palace, as a prodigy of the Mystic Nether Territory, he had been bullied and humiliated repeatedly. He felt the same and shared the same hatred.
"Remember, do your best to get one of the 30 spots. The more, the better. Let the people of the Mountain Flow Prefecture know the consequences of bullying and humiliating us." A powerhouse's voice sounded in the ears of the 108 prodigies on the Dark Leaderboard. It was full of encouragement.
The way the Mountain Flow Prefecture does things is just like this. It's unfair. What do you think?
This is our territory. If you want to participate in the Prefecture Tournament, then you have to obey. Otherwise, get lost.
Since you don't want to leave, then participate in the tournament. Get as many spots as you can and give the people of the Mountain Flow Prefecture a slap in the face.
In an instant, the 108 prodigies were filled with fighting spirit. Their morale was high.
"Hmph, who doesn't know how to shout slogans? Don't embarrass yourselves if you don't even get a spot." Suddenly, a prodigy from the Mountain Flow Prefecture mocked them.
"Don't underestimate them. They might even get two or three spots." It sounded like he was speaking for the Mystic Nether Territory, but his tone was full of disdain.
30 spots!
It was impossible for the prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory to not get a single spot.
First of all, Xu Mubai was very powerful. He was not weaker than Zhao Xingkong, who was the second ranked prodigy from the Mountain Flow Prefecture.
Therefore, Xu Mubai had a high chance of getting a spot.
Apart from Xu Mubai, there were many powerful prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory who also had a high chance of getting a spot.
"Listen up, three … three spots." Zhao Xingkong suddenly sneered. He glanced coldly at the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Prefecture and then at the prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory. There was a hint of mockery in his cold gaze as he said word by word, "At most, let them get three spots."
It was as if he was announcing the result.
He would only let the prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory get three spots. At most, they could get two or even one.
"Alright!"
"At most, three spots."
"We can do that."
The prodigies from the Mountain Flow Prefecture agreed.
At most, they would get three spots out of the 30 spots, which was one-tenth of the total. The remaining 27 spots would be taken by the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Prefecture.
How arrogant! How unfair!
"Everyone, you heard that. Three spots." Xu Mubai smiled. His voice was calm and steady, and he did not seem angry at all. However, the darkness in the depths of his eyes spun like a whirlpool, showing his inner turmoil.
"Everyone, three spots is the minimum. Remember, get more spots," Jian Lingxiao said with a smile. Jian Lingxiao smiled, and a terrifyingly sharp aura shot up to the sky. It was as if a divine sword had been unsheathed. The unparalleled sharpness of the aura caused the expressions of the Mountain Flow Mansion's elites to change drastically.
So powerful!
Zhao Xingkong could not help but feel a little surprised.
Apart from Xu Mubai, there was someone else with such strength among the prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory.
The Prefecture Competition had yet to begin, but the competition between the two prodigies had already begun.
"The Puppet Underground Palace has opened. Enter now. You can only enter the second stage if you pass the Puppet Underground Palace within the time limit." The expert from the Mountain Flow Prefecture said, but did not elaborate. "Remember, you must not kill anyone. Otherwise, no matter who it is, you will be punished."
Compared to the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Prefecture, the prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory were confused.
However, it was obvious that the other party did not intend to explain in detail. As such, they could only wait and see after entering the Puppet Underground Palace.
The entrance to the Puppet Underground Palace was located in another space, or rather, a mystic realm. It was a mystic realm that had been modified.
A pitch-black door was wide open, and a pitch-black light flowed through it like water, rippling as if it was flowing endlessly.
The Fierce Phoenix King, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned into a blazing flame, and within the flame, there seemed to be a Fire Phoenix spreading its wings and soaring high into the sky. Its speed was astonishing, and in the blink of an eye, it crossed thousands of meters and disappeared into the black gate.
Zhao Xingkong coldly glanced at the prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory with a sneer on his face. His figure flashed, and like an arrow leaving the bow, he instantly disappeared into the black door after Fierce Phoenix King.
One by one, the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Prefecture moved and disappeared into the black door. Only the 108 prodigies from the Mystic Nether Territory were left.
Xu Mubai's figure moved as if he had lost all weight. His entire body floated forward like a ghost, giving off an extremely relaxed feeling. It was as if he was walking in the void.
He was clearly not at the Saint Rudiment Stage, but he seemed to be able to fly like a Saint Rudiment Stage cultivator. Of course, Xu Mubai's technique was extraordinary, but it was not true flight. It could only be considered as flying at a low altitude within a certain distance.
In an instant, Xu Mubai's figure disappeared into the black door.
Then, his figure turned into a golden sword light that tore through the sky in an extremely swift and fierce manner and disappeared into the black door in an instant.
One by one, the 108 prodigies from the Underworld Ranking entered the black door in no time.
Chen Zong's vision was pitch black, and he seemed to be constantly shuttling through the darkness. Shortly after, a ray of light appeared in front of him. The light gradually expanded and became brighter and brighter. It seemed to be an exit.
Without hesitation, Chen Zong accelerated toward the light and rushed into it in an instant.
After his vision switched between darkness and light, Chen Zong adjusted in an instant. The light in front of him seemed a little dim, like dusk was about to fall. However, such dimness did not affect Chen Zong's superb eyesight at all.
Even in the darkness, it was as clear as day.
