"Master? It can't be. Even people at the master level have come here? "
The crowd exchanged glances with one another. The astonishment in their eyes was obvious.
This was because many of them had not heard what Elder Zhao had revealed yesterday. Most of them had only found out that the location of the Martial Spirit Awakening Storm was at the Supreme Profound Sky Platform after receiving the spirit paper message.
Therefore, in terms of mental state, compared to Ye Feng and the others, most people were already at a disadvantage.
"However, where is the High Scholar? I haven't seen anyone on the way here. "
"That's right, Daoist Master Zhao. If Master had come, we would have discovered him a long time ago."
Just as everyone was feeling puzzled, a voice that was as steady as a bell seemed to ring out from the sky.
"Zhao Shucheng, since everyone is here, let's not wait any longer. Let's begin."
Who else could call Elder Zhao directly by his name?
In such a huge arena, only the High Scholar had the qualifications to do so.
"Yes..." "Master."
Elder Zhao replied respectfully.
Following the direction of the voice, everyone was shocked and looked up into the sky.
In midair, a huge phantom, emitting a dense amount of spiritual energy, slowly condensed and took shape.
It turned out that the High Scholar had not arrived yet. He had only released this huge phantom.
Elder Zhao turned his head and looked at the crowd with a serious expression, "There are three rules for this Martial Spirit Awakening Storm. First, the purpose of this competition is to awaken the Martial Spirit, not to fight. No form of fighting is allowed. Second, once the Martial Spirit awakens, someone will bring you out to assess the Martial Spirit's level. No form of resistance is allowed."
He paused for a moment, scanned the crowd, and continued, "The third point is also the most important point. Everyone, prick up your ears and listen carefully. Martial Spirit Awakening is the most important exchange between you and your own Martial Spirit. There is a certain risk. If you are unlucky enough to die, it has nothing to do with the Celestial Sect of Wonders. I hope that you will take care of your own lives and not be too stubborn."
Elder Zhao's powerful and resonant words were like a meteor crashing into everyone's hearts.
Most of the people only had the thought of standing out and painstakingly cultivating all the way to the Martial Disciple realm. If they died because of the awakening of their Martial Spirit, it would be too depressing.
"This … What should we do? I've never heard of anyone dying after awakening their Martial Soul."
"That's right. We've been cultivating so hard. If we were to die just like this, what's the point of cultivating?"
Elder Zhao's words had unwittingly affected everyone present. Some of them even wanted to back out because of this.
"Daoist Master Zhao, may I ask, what is the death rate of the Martial Spirit Awakening?"
Elder Zhao glanced at him and coldly spat out a few words, "It's not high either. About twenty percent."
"Twenty percent? That's pretty tall. "
For those who were courageous, an 80% death rate was not considered high. For those who were timid, a 20% death rate was enough to make them tremble in fear.
"Forget it, I don't want to participate in this Martial Spirit Awakening Storm anymore. No wonder I was so tight-lipped before and didn't reveal anything. I didn't expect that someone would die." Some people clenched their teeth and decided to withdraw. After all, cultivation was important, but if they were to accidentally die, it would be a loss that did not make up for the gains.
Elder Zhao smiled, "Whether you want to withdraw or not, it's up to you. However, those who withdraw, I'll make it clear. You won't be able to participate in next year's Martial Spirit Awakening Storm.
"This …"
Some of them had clenched their fists and loosened them.
Not being able to participate in next year's Martial Spirit Awakening Storm meant that they would have to wait two years later. How could they accept this?
Therefore, those who were scared away by Elder Zhao's words were only those who were especially timid. However, even if such a person really participated in the competition, there was nothing much to say about it.
Thus, after a series of internal struggles, only two people backed out in the end.
Ye Feng smiled. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The Celestial Sect of Wonders had played this beautifully.
He had done a good job of keeping it a secret and giving a warning before the start of the competition, making people feel like they were withdrawing from the competition. After that, he explained the consequences of withdrawing from the competition. It could be considered as restraining everyone's behavior and not causing a collapse.
"Daoist Master Zhao …" Zi Feng has something to ask. "
Elder Zhao had been calmly answering everyone's questions, but when he heard Ye Feng's words, his expression suddenly changed.
"Smelly …" Ye Feng, what do you want to ask? I think just now, I've already explained the rules and the matter of leaving the stage very clearly. "
"That's right, Elder Zhao's explanation was very clear. I just want to ask, "There are some things outside of this."
Ye Feng smiled faintly, "For example, the spots for those who have left the stage are also a waste. Can you sell them to me, Ye Feng?"
"Didn't you already obtain the qualifications? Have you already participated? What do you want this spot for?" Elder Zhao was stunned.
"I just want to ask if it's possible. I wonder what the High Scholar thinks? "Ye Feng said with a smile.
Elder Zhao secretly cursed at how cunning he was. Originally, he could have made the decision for such a small matter, but Ye Feng had brought out the High Scholar. This kind of insignificant matter was an opportunity for the High Scholar to show his magnanimity. How could he refuse?
Elder Zhao sighed, but he still had to do it. He released his soul consciousness and connected with Master Yang. A moment later, he opened his eyes.
"Master said," Yes. "
"That's good." Ye Feng's eyes shone brightly.
Elder Zhao sighed. The competition hadn't even started yet, and Ye Feng was already causing a ruckus. He really didn't know what would happen later.
As Ye Feng spoke, he sized up the two people who had withdrawn from the competition, "You two, are you going to sell this spot or not?"
"Sell, of course sell. I'm no longer participating anyway, so what's the point of this spot?"
Ye Feng laughed out loud and gave him a thumbs up, "Straightforward, one hundred gold coins. Whoever can sign this blood contract first, I'll give it to them first."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of blood contract spirit paper from his spatial ring.
His movements were smooth and very experienced. The process of signing the blood contract was simply a blink of an eye.
"You …" Do you often sign blood contracts with people? "Someone looked at Ye Feng's agility in a daze and couldn't help but ask.
Ye Feng didn't comment. He covered the blood mark on his thumb and smiled.
"Who's first?"
… ….
Some people only had the chance to participate in the Martial Spirit Awakening Storm because of their connections.
Ye Feng, on the other hand, had relied on his own hard work to obtain the qualifications.
However, the value of a thing was not necessarily equivalent. Instead, it changed with time, place, and situation.
A hundred gold coins to buy the right to participate in the annual competition was definitely worth it.
"Wait, I'll pay five hundred gold coins."
"I'll pay a thousand gold coins. I also want to participate in this Martial Spirit Awakening Storm." Some of the outer sect disciples couldn't help but shout.
However, it was already too late.
Before anyone could react, Ye Feng had forced them to sign the blood contract at the fastest speed possible. This was the reason why the pie falling from the sky had become a reality.
After all, even if there really was a pie falling from the sky, there might still be people fighting to eat it. Opportunities were always given to those who were prepared, to the person who was most prepared.
"Xue Yi, this chance to participate in the Martial Spirit Awakening Storm is for you."
Ye Feng smiled and walked in front of his sister.
"Brother Zifeng, you …" Ye Xue Yi's originally dim eyes widened. She was so surprised that she couldn't speak. The gratitude in her heart couldn't be any greater.
Because, this was a completely unexpected surprise …
Ye Feng smiled leisurely, "Compared to watching my competition from the sidelines, I think you'd be more willing to awaken your martial spirit with me and Bing Qian."
"Thank you so much, Brother Zifeng. Previously, you helped me break through to the ninth level of the Martial Disciple realm and fought for the chance to come to the Celestial Sect of Wonders. Now, you've given me the chance to awaken my Martial Spirit. I don't even know how to repay you."
"Since we're family, don't mention anything about repaying me in the future." Ye Feng said with a serious expression.
Elder Zhao stood at the side and sighed, "Forget it, if you want to participate, then participate. Ye Xue Yi, come with your brother."
"Alright." Ye Xue Yi giggled. She was incomparably happy.
No matter what, Ye Xue Yi could be considered half a disciple of Elder Zhao. As long as it was acceptable, Elder Zhao would turn a blind eye to it.
"I've already explained everything that needs to be said. Whether or not everyone can survive the next Martial Spirit Awakening Storm and successfully awaken their own Martial Spirits will depend on everyone's luck. "
Elder Zhao scanned the crowd and looked at them meaningfully, as if he was looking at someone for the last time.
"Two days later, I will still be standing here, waiting for everyone to come back. I hope that fifty people will go and fifty will return … Now, I announce that the trial of the Martial Spirit Awakening Storm has officially begun."
As he spoke, a ray of light shot out from his hand and shone on the talisman stone of the Supreme Profound Sky Platform. After a dazzling brilliance flashed past, the door to the forbidden area suddenly opened.
"Hurry up and go in. Let's grab a good seat and start awakening our Martial Spirit."
"That's right, let's hurry up and rush up to the Supreme Profound Sky Platform. The earlier we start, the earlier we succeed."
Everyone rushed in as if they were going to break their scalps.
Ye Feng followed at the back of the crowd, stopping from time to time to think.
"If the Supreme Profound Sky Platform that punishes the wrong disciples is used as the location to awaken the Martial Spirit, then I'm afraid …"
He raised his head, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
Sure enough, within the forbidden area, a gust of wind suddenly howled and rocks flew in the air.
Bolts of lightning struck down from the sky. Those who were charging at the front were careless and immediately screamed miserably.
A silent storm was already brewing … R9 (R9 (R9))
