The next morning.
Everyone in Sengoku woke up early because it was a special day.
Recently, there hadn't been any special techniques appearing in the Eight Ancient Continents, so the people in Sengoku were very idle. No one was outside, and everyone was present. Without exception, everyone went to the competition venue. There were only about a thousand people in Sengoku, so one place was enough to accommodate everyone.
Because it was a competition within the Immortal Realm, it was not so formal and strict. The venue was also very simple. It was just a very large open space. There were many high platforms created by people using Immortal Qi around it for everyone to sit and watch.
As for the rules, there wasn't anything formal about it. The most traditional way was to draw lots. There were about two hundred people under the age of twenty in Sengoku. The number of participants was unprecedented.
Lu An woke up early in the morning. He was full of energy now. Although he didn't want to fight, he didn't want to lose either. Soon, he followed the crowd to the competition venue in Sengoku. He looked at the people sitting on the platform. This was the first time he saw so many people in Sengoku at the same time.
Looking at the spacious platform, he didn't know where to go and was about to find a corner to sit down. But just as he was about to enter the platform, a voice came from the side.
"Lu An." A stranger came in front of him and said, "The Immortal Empress asked you to sit with her."
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. He turned to look at the most honorable seat on the side of the venue. As expected, Jun was looking at him. Then, he said to the person, "Thank you."
After that, he walked toward Jun. When he came to Jun's side, he bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."
"You're my disciple. How can you sit alone?" Jun looked at Lu An and said, "I haven't seen you for the past few days. How's your cultivation?"
"Master, I've made some progress," Lu An said.
"That's good." Jun pointed at a chair and said, "Sit down."
"Yes," Lu An said.
Lu An sat beside Jun, and this scene was naturally seen by many people. Everyone knew that the Immortal Empress had taken in an outsider as her disciple, but most of them had never seen him before. This time, seeing the young man beside Jun with their own eyes, they couldn't help but size him up a few more times.
On the other side, Yao and her two brothers were seated as well. After Lu An sat down, Yao stretched out her head and waved at Lu An. Lu An also smiled and greeted her.
Soon, when everyone had arrived, some people walked out from the spectator stands and entered the arena. When the crowd saw him enter, they immediately quieted down. He was also holding a large box in his hand, which he placed directly in the middle of the arena.
"Draw lots first!" the man shouted. "All participants, draw lots. No one is allowed to change lots without permission!"
Hearing this, many young people immediately walked down from the spectator stands and came to the field. Lu An And Yao didn't fall behind either. They got up and walked towards the arena. The two of them joined the queue and lined up to draw lots.
The drawing of lots was quick, and it didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the box. The two of them reached their hands into the box, casually took out a lot, and left.
On the way back, Yao immediately asked, "An, what's your number?"
Hearing this, Lu An placed the lot in front of Yao and said, "Number one hundred and forty. What about you?"
"Number seventeen." Yao said with some annoyance. "Looks like I'll have to show my strength first. I want to see you fight first!"
Lu An smiled and followed Yao back. In fact, he was very happy to have drawn such a lot. This way, he would be able to watch many battles between Sengoku's people. It would also allow him to find ways and weaknesses to use immortal energy.
After the two of them returned to their respective seats, Lu An quietly waited for the competition to begin. On the other side, Jun and her family were chatting happily. Only Lu An was left alone at the side.
Because it was a Sengoku competition, there was no process. There was even no speech. Yuan didn't say anything either. Soon, the host announced the start of the competition.
"Number one, number two, please enter the arena!" The middle-aged man in the arena announced loudly. "The time limit for the competition is thirty minutes. If the time limit is exceeded, the Divine Master will determine the winner!"
When the crowd heard this, discussions broke out. Indeed, with so many people participating in a competition, if there was no time limit, it would definitely be very slow. Moreover, thirty minutes was not a short time. In a battle, it was very likely that it would be over in an instant.
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, two people walked down from the spectator stand and entered the arena. These two people didn't look very old. They were probably only about seventeen years old. However, both of them had a strong aura. This could be seen from the way they walked.
Both of their footsteps were very steady, almost without any frivolity. Moreover, both of their gazes were equally piercingly cold, not at all like flowers in a greenhouse.
"How do you feel?" It was unknown when Jun had turned her head around and asked Lu An.
"Very strong," Lu An said sincerely. "Moreover, they seem to have a lot of combat experience."
"That's natural." Jun smiled and said, "All disciples of Sengoku, once they are fifteen years old and above, must begin to carry out missions to learn combat experience and methods. Both of them are seventeen years old. Although the number of times they have gone to war is not high, they have gone out two or three times. "
Lu An was shocked when he heard this. He nodded slightly. No wonder these two people were so calm. Moreover, Sengoku had such a rule. It was indeed much better than the students in the other academies.
Soon, the two young people in the arena stood still. The host gave a few simple instructions and left the arena. When he reached the edge, he said loudly, "Begin!"
Before he finished speaking, both of them made the same choice. They immediately retreated. At the same time, both of their hands stretched out at the same time. In an instant, a huge white light appeared, forming white lines and light ribbons in the air.
Because it was a competition, both of them released their aura without reservation. Each of them began to control the immortal aura and attacked the other!
Bang bang bang!
When the seemingly soft light ribbons hit the ground, the ground was instantly shattered, and rocks flew everywhere. When Lu An saw this, he judged the cultivation level of both of them from the power of the attacks.
Both of them were equivalent to the peak of second-level cultivation.
The white light in the arena was like a huge tentacle, reaching toward the other party. Moreover, both of them used immortal techniques from time to time. The immortal aura was ever-changing. Sometimes it became a hard spear, sometimes it became a soft ribbon, and sometimes it even turned into rays of light that filled the sky.
When the immortal aura of both of them hit each other, it would cause a huge impact on the ground. Lu An looked at the way the two of them fought and quickly memorized it in his mind.
There were basically no gaps in their attacks. The immortal aura that filled the sky was almost perfect in both offense and defense. Such a combination of offense and defense was something that would never happen in the outside world. There were almost no flaws in such a battle. It was as if they were competing to see who could last longer.
At this moment, there was a sudden change in the arena.
One of them suddenly shouted and leaped up, reaching a height of about twenty feet in the air. Then, he suddenly slapped out both of his palms in the air and shouted, "Thousand Piercing Technique!"
In an instant, the light in his hands shone brightly. Suddenly, dense rays of light shot out from his hands, like shooting stars, straight toward the person on the ground. Every ray of light was like an arrow, and it was extremely powerful. It pierced through the air!
The person on the ground panicked. He immediately retracted all of his immortal aura to the surroundings and used the immortal aura to wrap himself in layers, forming a huge ball.
In the blink of an eye, countless rays of light arrived in front of the defense. In the blink of an eye, the ground around the sphere exploded into pieces, and soil flew everywhere!
Rumble …
A total of a thousand light thorns hit the ball defense and the surroundings. The people on the spectator stand felt the ground shake. However, the expressions of the people on the spectator stand did not change much. It was as if such power was nothing out of the ordinary in their eyes.
Except for Lu An.
Lu An frowned and looked at the flying dust seriously. When a total of a thousand light thorns were released, he immediately looked at the situation.
At this moment, the person in the sky slowly descended and stood steadily on the ground. After releasing the immortal technique, he was a little out of breath. However, he smiled in the end.
Because under his immortal technique, his opponent had been completely smashed into the ground. There was no chance for him to fight back at all.
The host immediately entered the arena and used his immortal aura to pull the person out of the ground. After quickly healing him, he shouted, "Number One wins!"
