"In the secret realm, you can use all your attacks. As long as you obtain the jade slip from the beast, it's fine even if you negotiate with the beast to extract and hand it over to you. Our evaluation criteria are simply the number of jade slips each person gets when they exit the secret realm! Then, we rank based on the number of jade slips obtained and select the top ten! Everyone clear on that?"
"May I ask, Elder Sword Bone, can we seize others' jade slips in the secret realm?"
Hearing this, Sword Bone lowered his head and found it was Ning Yan asking him. He frowned but still replied:
"Yes, in the secret realm, there's not only the threat of beasts but also challenges from other opponents. We do not prohibit combat. If you have the ability, you can even snatch all the jade slips into your own hands! However, malicious killing is forbidden. So damage is inevitable in competitions, but deliberately killing others is prohibited!"
After speaking, Sword Bone waved his hand again, and then twenty-five tokens appeared before the crowd.
"These are tokens for entering the Tianshui secret realm. They also have another function. If you are chased by beasts or encounter other life-threatening situations, you can crush the jade token to escape from the secret realm instantly! However, it also ans you will lose your spot in this competition and be eliminated!"
At this mont, Li Changfeng smiled as he looked at the other Sect Masters, seemingly waiting for them to speak. Sure enough, Li Yaoyang from Sunlight Sect spoke first.
"Pavilion Master Li, why are these rules in place? Haven't we always adopted combat thods in past years?"
Hearing this, Li Changfeng caressed his beard and smiled, saying:
"Sect Leader Li, the reason we are doing this is to test the comprehensive strength of each disciple. You know, the strength shown in the arena is not necessarily the real strength! However, in the Tianshui secret realm environnt, we can see a disciple's strength limit to the greatest extent!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yaoyang also frowned and thought for a while.
Actually, according to these rules, their Sunlight Sect has the advantage because they have more people in the top twenty-five. After entering the Tianshui secret realm, they surely won't fight among themselves, but if they encounter disciples from other sects, they can perhaps join forces to handle them. Even if there's no chance to join forces, having more numbers ans a greater chance of being in the top ten.
After pondering for a while, Li Yaoyang didn't say anything more.
The other Sect Masters evidently also had their own plans, all believing their disciples would achieve good results.
The Sect Master of Opening Source Sect laughed and said:
"Haha, Pavilion Master Li's thod is quite good, indeed better than our previous ways, isn't it?"
Xiao Rou from Luoshui Pavilion agreed:
"Yes, and Pavilion Master Li has directly provided his Tianshui secret realm. Mind you, that's a spatial treasure! It's quite valuable, it seems Pavilion Master Li has gone to great lengths for this competition!"
"Hehe, Sect Leader Xiao, you're flattering!"
Actually, only Li Changfeng knew that his intention was solely for Lin Chen!
Li Changfeng's goal was to protect Lin Chen, giving him a chance to advance further! Because if it was purely a duel, Li Changfeng didn't have much confidence, as Lin Chen's strength was rely at the fourth level of Divine Aura, and the gap with the top ninth level was too vast. In his view, Lin Chen would surely be defeated if facing opponents of ninth level Divine Aura.
Therefore, he ca up with this thod in hopes that in this environnt, Lin Chen could seize a chance for victory. Moreover, he believed that in this environnt, other mbers of Heavenly Sword Pavilion could aid Lin Chen. If Lin Chen achieved a remarkable rank, it would be excellent!
As Sect Master, he understood well that although Qian Jin and Wu Lang of Heavenly Sword Pavilion had decent strength, they wouldn't make it to the end! If they faced Ning Yan or other formidable opponents, they would likely be annihilated. Thus, he chose Tianshui secret realm as the battleground, although it doesn't benefit Heavenly Sword Pavilion much, it still counts as a fight!
Moreover, Li Changfeng felt that Lin Chen hadn't shown his limit yet! He trusted his intuition and thus provided this environnt, hoping Lin Chen, the dark horse, could explode once more and surprise everyone!
Heavenly Sword Pavilion had missed achieving good ranks several tis, affecting their share of interests slightly. This ti, Li Changfeng had placed part of his hope on Lin Chen!
"Alright! If there are no issues, then proceed into Tianshui secret realm! You can stay inside for 24 hours, which is one whole day! In this entire day, you can fight and kill to your heart's content! And outside, we can also see so of your actions!"
With that, Sword Bone waved his hand again, and suddenly a scene, like a water curtain, appeared next to the spatial fissure, while the scenes within kept changing.
Seeing this, Lin Chen's heart first tightened, but he quickly relaxed.
He had many secrets on him, and it wouldn't be a good thing if seen by others. However, observing the monitoring effect of the water curtain, it only showed the outer scenes and couldn't enter caves and underwater areas, thus he felt relieved.
"Alright, you twenty-five can go in! After entering, you'll be randomly transmitted to any place in the mountain range, possibly even the beast's lair! Rember, ti is tight, don't dawdle, your rank depends on your hands! Good luck!"
After Sword Bone finished speaking, he stepped down again and stood beside Li Changfeng, looking up at the crowd.
After hesitating for a while, the disciple from Crimson Fla Sect was the first to rush forward. The red-haired man looked back at the others, smiled, and said:
"Hahaha, everyone, I'll go ahead first!"
Imdiately, the disciple soared up and directly entered the spatial fissure. A ripple that seed like water waves shook a few tis, and then his figure disappeared into the secret realm.
Seeing this, the others also no longer hesitated, all entering the Tianshui secret realm.
Ning Yan also led the disciples of Sunlight Sect and prepared to enter but suddenly looked back at Lin Chen, revealing a sinister smile on his face. His lips moved slightly before entering the secret realm.
And Lin Chen clearly identified what he said:
"Kid! Brace yourself for death!"
