Chapter 984: Chapter 850: The Final of the Spirit Art Competition Chapter 984: Chapter 850: The Final of the Spirit Art Competition “`
The final refining stage of the month-long Spirit Art competition has finally arrived.
This day also marks the occasion when the last twenty Spirit Masters will publicly complete the final step of refining at the plaza.
In order to witness the last refining process of these twenty skilled Spirit Art Spirit Masters firsthand, many Spirit Masters have been waiting in the plaza since early morning, occupying the best vantage points in the limited space, as those without seats strive for a clear view of the true refining process.
Perhaps, an inadvertent small movent from these Spirit Masters could be of great help to those of lower levels, for high-level Spirit Arts are difficult to learn unless one has a teacher.
By noon, the entire plaza was packed with people, and those who arrived early began to feel fortunate that they had waited here so early.
“Please welco the twenty distinguished Spirit Masters!!”
As the announcent resounded, twenty Spirit Masters clad in robes of prestige slowly erged, walking on a lengthy carpet of soft, pink petals. At this mont, the tens of thousands gathered in the plaza could only look upon them with eyes filled with envy.
This was a glory that represented the most authoritative honor in the human Spirit Master realm!
In the very center of the plaza, various refineries of different attributes were neatly arranged, so as tall as ten ters. Inside these refineries, various types of energy intertwined, spilling out from their pores like ferocious beasts, their force too much for an ordinary person to withstand if they ca too close.
The last step of the refining process would not take much ti. Next, the twenty distinguished Spirit Masters would one by one step forward, using the different attribute refineries to showcase their Spirit Items, and the final verdict would be reached.
Today, most of the well-known figures in the Spirit City Earth Realm had attended – from First Level World Lords to Tenth Level World Lords, from One Thought Soul Emperors to Nine Thoughts Soul Emperors, from Palace Masters and Palace Lords to Elders and Supre Elders, as well as many other high-status luminaries!
The twenty Spirit Masters were accustod to grand scenes, having often moved among these major powers in the past.
However, when they spotted so of the towering figures, who were usually extrely difficult to et, now present in the Four-sided Seats, the thought of soon showcasing the fruits of their arduous cultivation of Spirit Arts under the gaze of these revered and admired luminaries, the Spirit Masters for today’s decisive battle also felt a mix of nervousness and excitent.
Sitting at the pri central seat of the highest tier was none other than Master of the Spirit City, Yang Que.
This King of Spirit Masters has long held a high position, exuding an aura of authority that did not require anger to intimidate. Resting his hands upon the arms of his seat, those sharp eyes looking down imposed an invisible pressure, making it hard for others to breathe.
To the left of the Spirit Stone King, Yang Que, was none other than Elder Shen Qiu from the Nightmare Demon Palace!
Shen Qiu was regarded by the vast mbers of the Nightmare Palace as the strongest person, second only to the Demon Emperor. Surely, there were few in Spirit City who did not recognize this prominent figure!
On Yang Que’s right, was the leader of the Spirit Sect—dicine Desolate Zhu Chao!
Though he was seated to the right, his position was no less esteed than the others.
Shen Qiu, Yang Que, and Zhu Chao – their seats, just like their positions, represented the summit of the human hierarchy. Seated at the apex of the Four-sided Seats, their stature alone commanded the respect and admiration of tens of thousands.
Beneath these three great figures were the Elder Level and high-level World Lords. These individuals governed populations in the tens of billions, and within those domains of tens or even hundreds of billions, they were the supre rulers, a height unreachable by countless others no matter how hard they tried.
Now they too sat in the Four-sided Seats, their gazes fixed on the twenty distinguished Spirit Masters—so composed, others whispering softly…
In such a gathering, those once deed the most powerful or influential in their realms seed a bit less imposing.
The twenty contestants were the most outstanding Spirit Masters from the World Realm and Wanxiang Realm. It was undeniable that after today, regardless of their success or failure, their futures would be limitless, and it was very possible that their places would one day be amidst those high seats in the Four-sided Seats!
Of the twenty contestants, the one with the greatest strength and regnant favorite to win first place was Yang Que’s granddaughter, the foremost female disciple of dicine Desolate, Yang Qian.
Yang Qian stood tall and graceful, dressed in an elegant purple Spirit Master’s dress that accentuated her enviable figure and made countless n yearn. Her face, proud and aristocratic, wore a confident half-smile.
Yang Qian also was highly respected in Spirit City, with countless n admiring her. However, her naturally prideful nature, coupled with her outstanding abilities and remarkable background, made her appear sowhat unattainable. Even the most desirable of won, such as herself, would leave n feeling inferior in her presence—who among them could truly win her over?
Behind Yang Qian stood Lu Yun—Cloud Trace, Zhu Zizhan, Princess Xiang Nan, Ye Qingzi…
These five had shown themselves to be the most prominent during the first three rounds of the competition. It was even evident that their capabilities far surpassed the other fifteen contestants in the final battle.
And it was among these five that the top three positions in the Spirit Art competition would likely be decided!
The Strong Ones are deserving of respect and adoration. In the plaza of ten thousand, the majority supported these five, and most believed that Yang Qian was the undisputed number one, with the second and third places contended for by the remaining four.
…
“`
“Qingzi, are you sure your Spirit Item is ready?” Ye Wansheng asked anxiously.
In such a gathering of prominent figures, Ye Wansheng couldn’t help but feel a bit constrained. After all, seated in the four-sided seats were over a dozen High-level Emperors. Most importantly, the outco of today’s final struggle was connected to his teacher’s last wishes. Success or failure would be determined today.
“No,” Ye Qingzi shook her head.
Three days were simply too short; even using her Spiritual Master Soul Technique, Ye Qingzi was unable to complete it in ti.
“No… Then why are you still standing here so calmly?” Ye Wansheng genuinely admired his younger sister’s composure!
One should know that their teacher’s murderer was watching them from the highest seat. Participating in this event was a substantial risk. If there were no results at all, there was no point in standing here.
“Just a little bit left. I will try to complete it during the refining process later,” Ye Qingzi replied.
“…” Ye Wansheng had not expected that Ye Qingzi planned to finish refining the Spirit Item under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of people. This was simply too crazy!
“Are you confident?” Ye Wansheng asked hurriedly.
“I don’t know, I can only try,” Ye Qingzi gently clenched her slightly pale hands.
Today, Ye Qingzi was wearing a black long robe. Standing beside Yang Qian, her stunning legs and graceful curves were not overshadowed by Yang Qian, who had always been famous for her figure. Instead, Ye Qingzi surpassed Yang Qian on the waist and legs. Unfortunately, the modest Ye Qingzi covered up her figure, unlike Yang Qian, who intentionally wore tight and revealing clothes.
Still, the long robe accentuated with a mask and her black hair added a touch of mystery and chill elegance to Ye Qingzi’s presence, making her utterly inscrutable, intriguing others to learn everything about this woman, yet they had no idea how to approach her.
“Qingzi, I knew you could stand here!”
Suddenly, a ntal Sound intruded into Ye Qingzi’s mind.
Ye Qingzi recognized the voice, turned her head, and saw a man sitting among the Four-sided Seats, looking at her with eyes full of eagerness.
“Mhm,” Ye Qingzi responded lightly.
“I also participated in the competition, but despite giving my all, I was eliminated in the third round. I had thought I could at least squeeze into the final round, and then I’d have had the chance to compete with you on stage. Sadly, my talent in Spirit Art is truly ordinary,” the man said with a face full of regret.
“Mhm,” Ye Qingzi just nodded again.
Ye Wansheng noticed that Ye Qingzi was communicating with a man. At first, he thought Chu Mu had lost his restraint and appeared, but it turned out to be a different guy.
Ye Wansheng recognized this man. He was a very powerful Soul Emperor they had t on their way to the Forbidden Domain, nad Lin Shang.
Lin Shang’s identity was a mystery; Ye Wansheng had secretly inquired but without results. However, he indirectly found out that this man must hold an extrely high POSITION in Wanxiang City, as even a Peak Emperor Grade World Lord once greeted him respectfully.
Lin Shang had spent so ti with Ye Wansheng and Ye Qingzi. Not long afterward, Lin Shang began to pursue Ye Qingzi fervently.
In every city they passed through, Ye Wansheng and Ye Qingzi always seed to encounter Lin Shang.
Lin Shang too was a genius. In order to find more common ground with Ye Qingzi, he deliberately started to seriously study that half-baked Spirit Art.
In the third round, Ye Wansheng had actually seen him, but what surprised Ye Wansheng was that this man, purely for the sake of pursuing his sister, had seriously learned Spirit Art and actually made it to the third round!!
Lin Shang’s perseverance impressed Ye Wansheng. For a while, to help Ye Qingzi escape that shadow, Ye Wansheng had really hoped his sister would get together with the decent Lin Shang.
Ye Wansheng was helpless. If Lin Shang had appeared before Chu Mu, perhaps there could have been greater success. Unfortunately, his sister was unable to let go when it ca to matters of the heart.
Of course, now that Ye Wansheng knew that Chu Mu was still alive, he naturally couldn’t ddle to pair his sister with Lin Shang anymore…
“Ye Wansheng, long ti no see. After the Spirit Art competition, Qingzi should be considering matters of the heart, right?” Lin Shang greeted Ye Wansheng using his Soul Sense Voice.
“Perhaps…” Ye Wansheng was about to ntion Chu Mu, to dispel Lin Shang’s hopes.
But on second thought, once Chu Mu appeared, Lin Shang would naturally realize there was no chance for him.
(There were so road issues on the way ho, with detours and it was nightfall by the ti I got ho. I was utterly exhausted when I arrived, and it’s only now that I’ve been able to write this chapter.
