After Xue Yu ascended the stage, he seemed to have immediately discovered Tang Huan's position. Two gazes that seemed to be condensed into substance looked over, and his eyes were mixed with anger and regret, which was rather complicated.
Tang Huan's mind moved slightly, a trace of warning came from the depths of his soul, and a bad premonition arose from the bottom of his heart.
This time's "Heavenly Arts Competition" was probably not that simple. However, he did not know if Master Que, Du Xinghe, Liu Tiangang, and the others had already noticed some clues.
In the blink of an eye, Du Xinghe, Xue Yu and the rest had already taken their seats on the stage.
"The Heavenly Arts Competition is a grand occasion for our 'Flowing Flower Domain'. This old man is Wang Shengjie, and I am the City Lord of Sky Square City.
Earth-shaking shouts reverberated in the air above the plaza. They were like rolling thunder, immediately suppressing the clamor that rose and fell in the surroundings.
The one who spoke was a short and fat old man with a head full of white hair and a benevolent face. After a series of empty introductory remarks, Wang Shengjie finally got to the main point of the competition, "This time's' Heavenly Arts Competition 'is the same as the previous years, it will be divided into three rounds. The first round will test everyone's ability to control firepower; the second round will test everyone's ability to deduce dao diagrams; and the third round will test everyone's comprehensive Tools Method strength!"
"The rewards for this competition are extremely generous."
"All of the participating Tian Gong, even if they are eliminated in the first round, they will still be able to obtain a 'Dragon Soul Formation Pill'. Passing the first round, they will be able to obtain a 'Dragon Soul Formation Pill' and a 'Illusory Cloud Star Pill'. Passing the second round, they will be able to obtain a 'Daluo Nascent Cultivating Pill' and a 'Void Abyss Dao Stone'. As for the rewards for the top three, this old man will first keep you in suspense, but it will definitely exceed your imagination!"
Wang Shengjie's face was full of smiles.
"The 'Void Abyss Dao Stone' is an essential material for forging a spatial Dao Artifact, and a Dao Artifact forged from it has an extremely vast interior space. I never thought that after passing the third round, there would be a 'Void Abyss Dao Stone' as a reward. This time, the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace, the Qian Yuan Sky Sect, and the Limitless Temple have really bled a lot."
"The Void Abyss Dao Stone is only a low-grade Dao Stone, but its value is almost comparable to the best mid-grade Dao Stone."
"Forget about the 'Void Abyss Dao Stone', that 'Great Luo Nascent Nurturing Pill' is also incomparably precious. In the xuanji Pill Pavilion, one of these pills would cost at least six to seven hundred thousand Heaven beads, and the 'Dragon Soul Formation Pill' and the 'Illusory Cloud Star Pill' are also worth three to four hundred thousand Heaven beads … If the first three rounds are already like this, I wonder how shocking the rewards for the top three will be?
"…"
The group of low-grade Heaven's Arts that were about to participate in the competition were in a slight commotion, and the sky and ground around the plaza were in an uproar as cries of alarm rose from all directions.
"The competition officially begins!"
Wang Shengjie's eyes swept across the many low-grade heaven's work in the empty space. Suddenly, he smiled and shouted loudly, "Now, everyone, please enter the arena!"
When the thousand low-grade Heavencraft heard this, they immediately took action.
On the plaza, there were more than a thousand prayer mats neatly placed. Everyone sat cross-legged on the prayer mats one after another, just like the Heavenly Imperial City's general election. This time, Tang Huan still chose to stay at the back of the plaza. Not long after, everyone was seated, and the people around the plaza subconsciously lowered their voices.
"Bring up the 'Spirit Color Dao Stone'!"
After a while, Wang Shengjie gave the order.
Immediately after, hundreds of young men walked into the arena and placed a ball the size of a bowl in front of everyone. Each ball was colorful, but the color contained within these balls was extremely turbid, as if dozens or hundreds of colors had been stirred into a ball.
"First round, start the countdown!"
Wang Shengjie suddenly shouted, and almost at the same time his voice fell, the hourglass on the stage had already flipped over, and the sound of sand falling instantly echoed.
He didn't say what he was going to do in the first round, but everyone knew what he was going to do. As a result, everyone reached out to grab the ball as fast as they could.
"Spirit Color Dao Stone..."
Tang Huan also suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and calmly grabbed the colorful ball in his hand.
Tang Huan also had some understanding of the "Spirit Color Dao Stone".
Although it was a Dao Stone, it was not of a grade. This was because the power it contained was too complicated, and there were hundreds of impurities within it. The first round of the Heaven Arts Competition was to remove all the impurities from the "Spirit Color Dao Stone". For an Inferior Grade Heaven Arts, this was indeed not an easy task.
However, once the impurities of the "Spirit Color Dao Stone" were completely erased, it would become the most beautiful Dao Stone in the world!
Many sects and aristocratic families would use the "Spirit Color Dao Stone" as decorations. Because of this, although the "Spirit Color Dao Stone" could not be used to forge Dao artifacts, its price was not cheap at all. Each of them was worth two thousand Heaven beads, which was much more expensive than ordinary low-grade Dao stones.
Tang Huan could not help but smile after sensing it for a bit.
In order to completely eliminate the impurities in the "Spirit Color Dao Stone", one's ability to control firepower would need to be extremely strong. It would be very difficult for ordinary low-grade Heaven Arts to completely eliminate it, but for Tang Huan, it was not difficult at all. His ability to control firepower had long since exceeded the limits of low-grade Heaven Arts.
"Hu!"
After a split-second, the dark blue flame rose from Tang Huan's palm and covered the "Spirit Color Dao Stone" tightly.
The flame was so clear that it did not contain any impurities. The moment it appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of many experts from the various sects on the stage. Xue Yu's eyes were wide open, and his gaze landed on Tang Huan without blinking. In the depths of his eyes, an unconcealable look of surprise surfaced.
Back then, when he was in Nether Cloud City, Xue Yu had never truly seen Tang Huan's dao fire. His understanding of Tang Huan's dao fire came from Guo An of the xuanji Pill Pavilion, but now, he realized that the water attribute dao fire that Tang Huan possessed was actually extremely pure. This kind of dao fire could definitely be promoted to the Origin Dao Fire.
At this moment, the regret in Xue Yu's heart became stronger than ever.
If he had known earlier that Tang Huan possessed such a dao flame, he would definitely have listened to Qin Chao's suggestion and brought Tang Huan away from Nether Cloud City before the "Heaven's Path Divine Art". At that time, Sun Kui of the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace and Yue Zichuan of the Limitless Temple had yet to rush over, so it could be said that he did not have any competitors. As long as he appeared in front of Tang Huan on behalf of the "Heaven's Expanse Sect" and accepted Tang Huan into the sect, there would definitely not be any difficulty.
Unfortunately, since things had already come to this, it was useless to regret it.
Xue Yu looked at Tang Huan's figure at the back of the plaza and could not help but shake his head and sigh. He felt incomparable regret in his heart, and before long, such a genius would fall.
At this moment, many people on the stage had expressions of surprise on their faces.
Those who sat here, even if they weren't mid-grade or high-grade Heaven Arts, were all powerful people. Their eyesight was naturally about the same, and the moment they saw Tang Huan's flames, they understood its uniqueness. In terms of the purity of the firepower, not a single one of the thousand people in the arena could compare to Tang Huan.
