Because of the commotion caused by the Swordsman in White’s strike, the attention of all Martial Artists within the secret realm was imdiately drawn. They had noticed the fight between Lin Chen and Chang Bai while it was happening, but none rushed over right away, instead thinking of reaping the benefits afterwards.
Yet when everyone began to move, heading toward the location of Lin Chen and the others, they felt the world spinning around them as if in a sudden swirl, realizing that a Teleportation Array within the secret realm had been activated.
The crowd was puzzled, as there were still twenty days left before the end of the trial in the secret realm. Why were they being teleported out now? Could it be because of that strike unleashed by the young Swordsman in White?
"You two, quiet down. If you really want to have a fight to the death, then wait for the final ranking battle."
The man in white looked at Lin Chen and Chang Bai, speaking indifferently before his figure disappeared from everyone’s sight.
As everyone was still bewildered, they found themselves locked in by a teleporting force, about to be transported out of this space.
Shortly after, everyone appeared outside the square of the secret realm’s Teleportation Gateway.
The number of Martial Artists teleported out this ti reached more than four thousand.
Tang Yuntian imdiately ordered soone to tally the results of the top one thousand participants in this secret realm trial.
Ultimately, combining the results of the previous four stages, the final scores of the participants were calculated.
Although they did not understand why they were teleported out before the trial ti had concluded, deep down, everyone was silently relieved.
Tang Yuntian then explained the sudden end of the trial in the secret realm to the crowd.
It turned out that the disturbances inside had triggered spatial turbulence, necessitating an early conclusion to the trial.
However, this was rely an explanation for the masses, not the true reality of the situation.
The true reality, known only to Tang Yuntian and the others, was that the battle between Lin Chen and Chang Bai had caused such a great disturbance that without intervention, their fight could have led to even more casualties.
What was most important was that both Lin Chen and Chang Bai were considered among the top Heavenly Prides, and the Formation Sect did not wish to see either of them perish in this battle.
Following the Formation Sect’s count, it was found that this trial in the secret realm had resulted in the deaths of more than four thousand Martial Artists. Never before had there been such a high number of casualties in a secret realm trial.
After an investigation, the Formation Sect found that nearly a thousand of these deceased Martial Artists had perished at the hands of Chang Bai’s party.
The Formation Sect did not rage over this because they had made it clear from the beginning of the trial that the secret realm was fraught with dangers, and participants should be prepared for any eventuality.
Moreover, despite Chang Bai’s thods being sowhat ruthless, his Talent and aptitude were superior. He not only possessed the True aning of Swordsmanship but had also self-realized the True aning of Ice. If the Formation Sect were to cultivate him, he was bound to beco a powerhouse like Mu Qianqiu.
"Brother Lin, it’s such a pity we didn’t et inside the secret realm. Otherwise, if we joined forces, we could have reigned supre and claid all the command tokens."
Qin Kaifeng approached Lin Chen and spoke lightly.
Lin Chen simply smiled mildly, not responding, instead turning his gaze to Xia Wanxin in the distance.
At that mont, Xia Wanxin was also looking at Lin Chen, and upon seeing him look back, she haughtily turned her head away.
Zhao Zhongchuan, Zhao Zhongtian, Deng Yu, and a few others, although not united, individually harbored strong resentnt towards Lin Chen.
The final test of the Formation Sect was still so days away, giving everyone so ti to rest and return to their peak condition.
According to the results so far, the scores of the participants were also determined.
Out of the initial twelve thousand people who took part in the fifth stage, only over seven thousand had survived. From them, the Formation Sect only selected the top one thousand with the highest scores.
These were mostly the Martial Artists who had the most command tokens among the four thousand teleported out of the secret realm at the end.
Of course, there were also so who had been transported out of the secret realm trial early.
Because these Martial Artists had done well in the previous four stages, they had earned high scores.
And the person who took first place in the combined scores of the stages was naturally Lin Chen, with the second place going to not Qin Kaifeng, but Chang Bai.
Qin Kaifeng ranked third, Xia Wanxin fourth, Deng Yu fifth...
These rankings, by the ti of the sixth-stage ranking match, actually bore no significance.
Because the sixth-stage ranking match would not be conducted based on the scores of the previous stages.
These scores could be seen as a re acknowledgnt of the Martial Artists’ Talent and achievents in the recruitnt trials.
Of course, for those selected to beco disciples of the Formation Sect, their scores would be converted into sect contribution points according to a certain exchange rate.
However, this exchange rate was pitifully reduced; Lin Chen’s high score of over twenty thousand, upon becoming a disciple of the Formation Sect, could only be exchanged for twenty-six sect contribution points.
And the final ranking battle also offered decent rewards.
According to the rules of the Formation Sect, it would be held among the top one thousand participants based on the scores of the previous five stages.
These one thousand people were considered to have successfully entered the Formation Sect.
However, only the top five hundred in the ranking battle would have the chance to enter the Inner Sect.
The remaining five hundred would be open for selection by Outer Sect Elders.
Of course, if anyone had a preferred Elder or peak, they could also enter, but this was limited to the top one hundred winners.
This ant that the top one hundred winners, even if not selected by an Elder, would have the right to choose and enter under any Elder they preferred, provided the Elder agreed.
This rule was relatively generous, since winning just one match was enough to qualify for entry into the Inner Sect.
The Formation Sect essentially recognized these top one thousand disciples as being exceptionally talented and powerful.
The purpose of the sixth-stage ranking match was to further understand the true strength of the participants, to facilitate the Elders in selecting their desired disciples.
