A day passed in the blink of an eye.
In the majestic Chang 'an City, there were 36 exquisitely carved jade beads standing proudly on a flat and wide square.
This place was called the Heart-Nourishing Platform.
Usually, this was the place where the cultivators of the Da Xia Kingdom would compete.
This time, it was the battle stage of the dojo competition.
The Heart-Nourishing Platform was not enclosed, and there were even special seats for spectators.
After all, this place was built for battles, so the corresponding facilities were naturally complete and standard.
Around the Heart-Nourishing Platform, there were already many cultivators from Chang 'an City and cultivators from other regions who had come from afar.
There were even many rich cultivators from other regions who knew that there would be a lot to watch today, so they went directly to Chang 'an City through the Inter-region Teleportation Array to watch the competition.
As time passed, the number of cultivators who gathered was still increasing, and the number had already exceeded 10,000.
These spectating cultivators all came from different backgrounds. In addition, the daoist temple's Grand Competition had a domain as its boundary.
Therefore, they gathered in groups and naturally formed seven groups of cultivators.
The cultivators from the East Region gathered in groups here, and the cultivators from the West Region gathered in groups there …
Around the Heart-Nourishing Platform, there were many jade mirrors, which were the "broadcast screens" used to watch the competition.
The strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator was already quite amazing, and it was impossible for a small arena to satisfy the needs of a battle. Therefore, the real venue of the competition was in a small world.
The 36 jade pillars in the Heart-Nourishing Platform were the famous Mountain Sea Pillars.
In each Mountain Sea Pillar, there was a small world with different scenery.
There were grasslands, deserts, volcanoes, stone forests, swamps, and so on. It completely simulated the situation of cultivators fighting, and the worlds appeared randomly.
There were always small worlds that you liked, and there were always small worlds that you didn't like.
Under the gaze of the cultivators, a group of cultivators flew from afar and stopped outside the Mountain Sea Pillar.
"That's the 'Eight-Armed King Kong' Yan Fei, second on the Yellow Board, from the West Region!"
Some of the cultivators who were watching pointed at the strong male cultivator at the front of the group, and then looked behind him.
"In addition, there's the 'Barbarian Bull' Sha Manzi, 14th on the Yellow Board, and the 'Bloody Saber' Ye Mo, 27th on the Yellow Board …
The top ten cultivators on the Yellow Board of the Western Region are all here! "
While the spectating cultivators of the Western Regions were still in shock, another group of cultivators entered the arena.
"They're from the Northern Region. That's Yu Li, who's ranked ninth on the Yellow Rankings, and Wang Yan, who's ranked thirteenth on the Yellow Rankings …"
Before the first wave had subsided, another wave arose.
Groups of cultivators entered one after another, each of them was a famous figure on the Yellow Board.
Ranked fourth on the Yellow Leaderboard was' Water Splitting Saber 'Li Feng. Ranked fifth on the Yellow Leaderboard was' Withered Wood Thunder 'Lu Wuwei.
Thinking that these rare geniuses of the Yellow Board would compete with each other in the competition, the spectating cultivators couldn't help but feel excited.
As for the Yellow Board cultivators who were participating in the competition, their hearts were also in an uproar.
Their rankings were determined by the Heaven's Secret Temple based on their battle records.
However, there were very few of them who had faced each other head-on. Therefore, if their rankings were not too different, neither of them would concede to the other.
You're ranked in front of me, so you're definitely stronger than me?
That's just because I'm more low-key and don't cause trouble!
Whether you're strong or not, you'll have to fight to know!
Many people could already foresee that after this Training Hall Grand Competition, the ranking on the Huang Board would definitely change a lot.
Another group of cultivators, led by an old man, entered the arena.
This group of cultivators instantly became the focus of all the cultivators present.
Because, they were cultivators from the Eastern Region.
No matter when, the most eye-catching person was always the first.
The Eastern Region had 'Haoran Sword' Ji Chuan, who ranked first on the Yellow Board. At the same time, there was' Sword Extinction 'Lu Qingshan, who ranked third on the Yellow Board.
There was no doubt that the Eastern Region was the imaginary enemy of the cultivators from the other six regions.
"Finally, it's our Eastern Region's turn." The spectating cultivators from the Eastern Region who had been holding back for a long time breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the cultivators from the other six regions showing off.
"'Eight-armed King Kong', 'Water Splitting Saber', they can't compare with our 'Haoran Sword' Ji Chuan …"
"Where's Ji Chuan?" The next moment, the spectating cultivators from the Eastern Region were in an uproar because they didn't see Ji Chuan.
"Even Lu Qingshan isn't here …" Soon, someone discovered this fact.
"What's going on? 'Haoran Sword' and 'Sword Extinction' aren't participating in this competition. How can our Eastern Region win? "
"Is the Sword Sect giving up on Snail Dojo?" Some people were puzzled and couldn't believe it. They even felt resentful. "This is a competition that concerns the welfare of the cultivators of a region. As the Eastern Region's Dao Sect, the Sword Sect doesn't take it seriously?!
They don't take the cultivators of the Eastern Region seriously … "
Not only were the spectating cultivators discussing, but even the cultivators of the Yellow Board who were participating in the competition also looked at the Eastern Region's cultivators in surprise and whispered.
The cultivator leading the team from the Eastern Region was Hope Elephant.
He was standing in the middle of the field with an indifferent expression on his face. He was as calm as the wind and clouds, and he was neither happy nor sorrowful.
"This is infuriating! This is infuriating! This is inhumane … "
Only 'Frost Sword' Xue Hanfeng, who was standing behind Hope Elephant, heard his Uncle-Master's curses.
.....
In the midst of the noisy discussion, a gentle voice came to everyone's ears.
"Quiet."
His voice seemed to contain boundless power, causing everyone to quieten down immediately.
Then, an ordinary-looking cultivator appeared above the Heart Nourishing Platform.
Da Xia Kingdom, Green Brow Monarch.
"Since everyone is here, it's time for the competition to begin!
Let me announce the rules of this competition again. "Green Brow Monarch stood with his hands behind his back and said slowly.
"The rules are very simple. First, I will draw lots and choose one of the seventy Nascent Soul cultivators to be the defender."
"The other sixty-nine cultivators can freely choose to attack the arena. The defender can't refuse other cultivators' challenge."
"If no cultivator is willing to take the initiative to attack the arena, the defender can freely choose one person to attack the arena.
Similarly, the designated person can't refuse the defender's appointment. "
"The cultivator who loses the battle will be eliminated and won't have a second chance to fight.
The victorious cultivator can't leave the arena and has to prepare for the next cultivator's challenge. "
"It will continue like this until all sixty-nine cultivators have failed. The last cultivator to remain in the arena will be the winner of the competition."
"After each battle, the victorious cultivator will have four hours to rest."
Four hours of rest was neither long nor short.
It wouldn't allow the victorious cultivator to recover to his peak state and sweep the entire arena.
It also wouldn't allow the powerful cultivators to be defeated too early in the battle of attrition.
This was indeed a rule that could reasonably reflect the comprehensive strength of the young cultivators of each region. However, for the six regions that had reached an agreement, it allowed them to target the East Region without any hindrance.
If the defender was an East Region cultivator, they would choose to take the initiative to challenge him.
If the defender was a cultivator from the six regions, the others wouldn't choose to take the initiative to challenge him. They would wait for the East Region cultivator to initiate the challenge.
Or they would wait for no one to challenge him, and the defender would appoint an East Region cultivator to go on stage.
This was also why the old sword cultivators of the Sword Sect still felt uncertain even with Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan as their trump cards.
After all, this was equivalent to ten against sixty.
Not to mention that Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan weren't present at the moment.
As for the most feared Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan, would the alliance of the other six regions be dissolved if they didn't participate in this competition?
It was impossible. Since the alliance of interests had been formed, it wouldn't dissipate so easily.
Xi Xiang was already prepared to be the first to leave the arena from the East Region.
"The competition begins now!" Monarch Qing Mei announced the rules and continued, "Now, I'll pick the first defender to go on stage."
The quiet scene suddenly became tense.
Everyone knew that in this competition, the first defender would undoubtedly be the unluckiest and would be cannon fodder.
All the spectating cultivators were praying that the unlucky cultivator would come from another region.
"The first defender is' Bloody Saber 'Ye Mo from the West Region!"
