[Wu Yue rode her sword and fled like a teor.]
[Baili Su summoned his riding beast, a mighty eagle, grabbed its talons, and had the bird carry him off.]
[Wang Mingbai chose to take a ship, a luxury cruise with over a hundred oarsn rowing so hard their arms were about to fall off.]
[Long Yang shouted loudly.]
["Auspicious Cloud Divine Skill!"]
[A sheet of seven-colored auspicious clouds flew beneath his feet and carried him away.]
[As Long Yang flew past you, he said,]
["Brother Chen, want to give you a ride? Once we land on the island, we can compete fairly?"]
[You politely declined.]
["No need, I have my own sea-crossing thod."]
[You took out the Star Shuttle Zhao Hanzhou once gave you, threw it onto the sea, then stepped onto it. It skimd like a speedboat, kicking up a trail of white spray as it sped away.]
[You had improved the Star Shuttle's internal formation once more from the version Zhao Hanzhou originally modified.]
[Now this Star Shuttle could be used on water, land, and air.]
[Watching your dashing retreating figure, Long Yang nodded repeatedly.]
["Brother Chen still handles things with ease. He will be my greatest rival this ti… Brother Chen, wait for !"]
[The twenty of you arrived at Tide Wind Island one after another.]
[The first challenge was to find the Saint Token and the Saintess Token.]
[There were usually two thods.]
[One, go find them yourself, using divine sense, spirit artifacts, cultivation techniques, each showing their skills.]
[Two, stake out a Sea-Calming Divine Tower and rob whoever uses the first thod.]
[But this island was not small. Apart from the judges hovering in the air, only the twenty of you were on the island.]
[There were four Sea-Calming Divine Towers, one to the east, one to the south, one to the west, one to the north.]
[If you staked out the wrong tower, you were done for.]
[So at the start, everyone chose to search themselves.]
[You summoned the Ten Thousand Souls Golden Banner and unleashed the classic move Myriad Ghosts Go to Market.]
[With the banner’s evolution, this move had evolved too.]
[Previously you released the souls inside the banner to scout and gain vision, and you had to direct them manually.]
[Now you simply dispersed three thousand souls evenly across the island, using swarm control to form a networked topology, opening underlying logic, refining granularity, and assembling a combined approach.]
[In plain terms, it was more efficient, clearer, more three-dinsional, and easier.]
[You had no intention of personally looking for the Saint Token, nor did you plan to camp at a Sea-Calming Divine Tower.]
[Instead, you used Myriad Ghosts Go to Market to surveil the entire arena, planning to snatch the Saint Token from whoever found it!]
["Let them search slowly."]
[You jumped onto a tree and closed your eyes to rest.]
[Not long after.]
["Huh? Found one?"]
[Your surveillance network fed you an image; you saw soone pull sothing from a rock.]
[It was Wu Yue, but what she found was the Saintess Token, so grabbing it would be useless to you.]
[This token was half a person tall and continuously emitted a dazzling blue light. Judging from Wu Yue’s expression when she picked it up, the thing was still very heavy.]
[Wu Yue tried to shove it into her Storage Ring but after much effort realized it would not fit.]
["This is a walking bullseye."]
[You understood at once—the finals were essentially still PVP.]
[Carrying such a large, heavy object that couldn’t be hidden made one extrely conspicuous.]
[Whoever held it would be ganged up on.]
[Wu Yue planned to take the Saintess Token to a Sea-Calming Divine Tower.]
[Unfortunately, luck had been spent finding the token; the tower she chose had three female candidates staking it out.]
[Although Wu Yue was a born genius and possessed the Bright Moon Sacred Physique, and after inheriting the sword path her combat power was peerless,]
[facing three opponents while lugging that burden, it was hard for her to gain the upper hand.]
[They were all Spirit Condensation and Spirit Sea Realm experts, and once a fight started the commotion would be loud.]
[Seeing more people about to converge, Wu Yue decisively cleaved a chasm with a sword and chose to withdraw.]
[The three won pursued her relentlessly.]
["Why are they running toward my place?"]
[You only wanted to quietly stake out a Saint Token, but Wu Yue headed straight for your position, drawing those three madwon over.]
["Chen Dong! Lend a hand!"]
[Wu Yue called for help.]
[You remained lying in the tree.]
["I’m waiting for the Saint Token. If I help you fight and then the Saint Token appears, how could I possibly snatch it in ti?"]
["A Celestial Origin Longevity Pill! It increases life by five years!"]
["You bully the fewer with the many—what kind of hero or beauty are you! Look at my spear!!"]
[You lifted your spear to fight, clashing with the three female candidates who had been chasing Wu Yue; they were soon gasping and panting from your blows.]
[Of course, when I say spear I an the Blazing Extinction War Spear.]
[Wu Yue counterattacked and joined you to fight the enemy together.]
["Big sister! Stop fighting! Go stick the Saintess Token into the tower!"]
["Can you do it alone?"]
["I can! You’re just getting in the way here, seriously!"]
["Thanks!"]
["Don’t thank ! Just rember to pay up!"]
[Wu Yue failed to leave.]
[Because so male candidates nearby arrived.]
[They originally wanted to watch the show.]
[But the three female candidates sent them a team invitation.]
["Baili Su! Long Yang! Help out!"]
[Baili Su laughed toward the sky, "The Saintess Token? Not my problem. I simply like watching won fight—haha!"]
[Long Yang and Baili Su struck palms together in agreent.]
[The three won spoke again.]
["Help us! We can pay!"]
[Baili Su sneered.]
["My Baili clan lacks for nothing."]
["I’ll offer myself as paynt!"]
[Baili Su raised an eyebrow.]
["That will do. I want three of them! Hahaha!!"]
[When Long Yang saw Baili Su rush into the fray, he imdiately displayed a look of disdain.]
["Brother Baili, lust is a double-edged sword!"]
[At that instant you wished Long Yang would help those three won too.]
[But he didn’t.]
[This guy really was strange!]
[Although Baili Su was only Spirit Sea Realm, that was because he was younger than everyone present.]
[His combat ability was hardly weak.]
[His Destiny Spring Overlord Body allowed his strength to flow continuously in battle, growing stronger with every fight!]
[You couldn’t deploy power exceeding the Spirit Condensation realm, or the judges above would detect you.]
[So you could only stack buffs!]
[You geniuses with backgrounds and talents, I have my trait tags!]
[Very fair!]
[Not far off, Wang Mingbai was flying quickly, clutching a rock as he rushed over.]
[Just as he opened his mouth to say sothing, a terrifying thunderclap suddenly bood from the sky.]
["Rumble!!"]
[The thunder was unusually loud.]
[You, the other candidates, and the Martial King judges in the air all looked up.]
[You saw the thunderclouds that had been hovering over the surrounding sea since earlier today swirling into vortices.]
[As they spun, the vortices vaguely ford a horrifying ghost face.]
["Crack!!"]
[A black lightning bolt struck down from the thunderclouds, splitting into countless thin lightning threads in midair, covering the sky and sweeping across, directly knocking aside a number of Martial King judges.]
["All candidates, beware! This is not the Holy Lands' doing!"]
[A judge shouted a warning to you.]
