The True Martial Sect Leader descended onto the arena, his gaze sweeping across the entire plaza.
The originally bustling Celestial Martial Plaza fell silent in an instant.
At this mont.
Even the elders from various sects of the Thirteen Countries of Qingzhou paused their activities, looking towards the arena.
"Everyone!"
"Today marks the day of the Sword Fighting Conference for the Thirteen Countries of Qingzhou! As the host, our True Martial Sect is organizing this Sword Fighting Conference!"
When the True Martial Sect Leader ntioned the ’Sword Fighting Conference,’ everyone from the Thirteen Countries gathered at the plaza beca excited.
Even Ye Qingchen’s eyes shone with a spark.
This represents the highest honor for the younger generation.
No one desires more than to win first place in this Sword Fighting Conference!
"This conference is structured as a round-robin tournant! The winners advance to the next round, while the losers are eliminated. Until the last remaining on the arena, they will be the champion of this Sword Fighting Conference!"
"As for the order of the matches, it depends on the Sword Fighting Tokens each of you holds!"
As the True Martial Sect Leader concluded his speech.
At this mont.
Everyone’s gaze fell upon the Sword Fighting Token in their hands.
Simultaneously, intricate information surged quickly from their tokens.
"So that’s how it is!"
Ye Qingchen closed his eyes, fully processing this information after a mont.
According to what the token says.
All participants of the Sword Fighting Conference will be automatically assigned based on these tokens. The tokens will independently select opponents, and they need only follow the instructions provided by the tokens.
Just then.
Others also opened their eyes, nodding thoughtfully.
Seeing everyone had opened their eyes, the True Martial Sect Leader continued slowly, "Furthermore, the top ten participants in this Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference can receive a Profound Grade Top martial technique or item! If they reach the top three, even greater rewards await!"
With these words, the entire venue erupted.
Even Ye Qingchen felt a slight thrill upon hearing this.
Thus far, he had only acquired two Profound Grade Top martial techniques, which was considerably insufficient. Although he previously obtained several martial techniques, most were just lower rank, rendering them almost useless for his cultivation.
Just entering the top ten could earn him a Profound Grade Top martial technique and item...
While reaching the top three would claim even greater rewards!
Not only Ye Qingchen.
Others were equally thrilled.
So couldn’t help but ask, "Sect Leader, may I ask what rewards the top three will receive?"
"Disciples who reach the top three will receive not only a Profound Grade Top item but also a ’Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill’ as a reward!"
"Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill?"
"The top three receive such rewards?"
The crowd was stunned.
Obviously.
They were astonished by the grand gesture of the True Martial Sect.
Even Kong Shun’s eyelids twitched.
"Elder Kong, what is the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill?" Ye Qingchen asked softly, noticing Kong Shun’s expression.
"It’s an elixir that significantly aids in cultivation improvent, particularly effective for cultivators breaking through to the Profound Pill Realm, with no side effects," Kong Shun’s eyes sparkled, "While I know how to refine it, collecting the materials is extrely difficult. So far, I’ve only refined it for the Daqian Country’s royal family..."
Ye Qingchen nodded quietly.
Keep in mind.
When martial artists aim to break through major realms, it’s not always smooth sailing and occasionally they face failures.
The higher the realm, the greater the chance of failure.
If a breakthrough fails.
At best, they lose one or two levels of cultivation, at worst, they might face ntal deviations. Therefore, so take a slow and steady approach when breaking through the Profound Pill Realm, gradually accumulating power to reduce failure chances.
With the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill’s assistance, failure is nearly impossible.
"Moreover, the champion will be permitted to enter our True Martial Sect’s Black Tortoise Pavilion!"
Boom!
Upon hearing these words.
Black Tortoise Pavilion!
If the previous reward of Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill was already shocking enough.
Then.
When he ntioned the ’Black Tortoise Pavilion’.
The whole crowd beca completely turbulent.
"The True Martial Sect is being so generous this ti! They are actually willing to open the Black Tortoise Pavilion!"
"I heard there’s an Earth-tier Technique within the Black Tortoise Pavilion..."
"Compared to the Black Tortoise Pavilion, the previous rewards seem as insignificant as dust!"
The True Martial Sect Leader’s statents drove everyone into a frenzy.
Bear in mind.
The Black Tortoise Pavilion is a forbidden area within the True Martial Sect, containing a stone slab accidentally acquired from a secret realm, which records an Earth Tier Lower-Grade Martial Technique.
Though.
This Earth Tier Lower Grade Martial Arts is extrely profound, so far only the True Martial Sect Leader has comprehended parts of the Cultivation Technique from it.
Yet its power surpasses the Profound Grade Top martial techniques by dozens of tis.
Moreover, the whole True Martial Sect has derived over a dozen top-class Profound Grade martial arts from this stone slab!
Indeed.
The pride of the True Martial Sect solely stems from this stone slab.
"Earth Tier Lower Grade Martial Arts!"
At this mont.
Everyone’s fighting spirit was stirred.
Even Ye Qingchen’s heart was filled with anticipation.
"Alright!"
Observing everyone’s expressions, the True Martial Sect Leader nodded.
"I’ve explained the rewards for this Sword Fighting Conference."
"Now, the tournant officially begins!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
As these words fell.
The Sword Fighting Token in each contestant’s hand emitted a burst of brilliant light, and ninety pillars of light shot up instantly into several hundred ters in the sky.
This magnificent spectacle.
Directed everyone’s gaze towards those under the arena, almost simultaneously...
"Swish!"
A sudden breaking wind sound echoed.
Suddenly a Sword Fighting Token flew straight out from a disciple’s hand, directly sweeping onto the arena. Almost with the flight of this token, the disciple imdiately regained his composure.
Pounce!
He spread his sleeves like an antelope leaping, and with just two or three swift movents, he had already ascended to the arena.
"Who is that?"
The crowd gazed collectively.
They wished to see who was the first disciple to ascend the arena.
"Zhu Yun!"
"It’s Brother Zhu Yun from the Youquan Sect..."
"Unexpectedly, Zhu Yun was the first to take the stage! His strength ranks among the top even if you consider all participants of the Sword Fighting Conference from the Thirteen Countries of Qingzhou!"
An uproar followed.
The crowd directed their eyes everywhere.
They wanted to see.
Who would face Zhu Yun in battle!
As the crowd searched, another token flew upwards onto the arena.
"Who is it?"
"Who will challenge Brother Zhu Yun?"
Everyone hurried to look towards the source of the second token’s flight.
There.
A young man with a delicate face stood up slowly.
