Lu Ye wasn't in a hurry; he was waiting for the right opportunity. According to the information he had gathered earlier, there was a perfect chance to showcase the As-Close-As-Siblings Array Disc.
However, whether he could seize this opportunity depended on luck.
Ti passed by, and his various operations continued uninterrupted. He kept crafting the array discs during breaks in the ongoing competitions, accumulating their numbers.
His ranking had already fallen outside the top three hundred on the Cumulated Points Ranking...
The reason was simple: while others securing high ranks focused solely on recovering or healing to participate in competitions, Lu Ye spent a lot of ti crafting array discs, resulting in his cumulated points being slowly surpassed.
Despite falling outside the top three hundred, it was still a high position. During this ti, nurous factions had inquired about him, sending him ssages through various channels, attempting to recruit him.
Without exception, Lu Ye refused all offers. What he wanted to accomplish was too significant; accepting any recruitnt, no matter how enticing the offer, didn't sway his determination.
A month after parting ways with Chu Shen, the opportunity Lu Ye was waiting for finally arrived!
On this day, just returning from a competition, he saw many people gathered in front of the Cumulated Points Ranking.
At first, he thought there was another major change on the ranking, but upon closer inspection, he realized that wasn't the case. The crowd wasn't gathered in front of the ranking but behind it.
Traditionally, the ranking list was displayed on the front side, and the back was a blank slate, nothing ever appeared there.
Seeing so many people gathered there now indicated that sothing was happening.
Cautiously making his way to the back of the Cumulated Points Ranking, Lu Ye discovered that it was indeed as he guessed!
On the backside, five large characters appeared: "lee Battle et of Ten Thousand!"
The so-called lee Battle et of Ten Thousand was a form of competition held in the Constellation Palace, but quite different from what Lu Ye had experienced before. This form involved a massive number of participants, at least ten thousand, with no upper limit.
It's said that the largest recorded participation reached fifty thousand people.
Fifty thousand, all from the Constellation, creating chaotic and tumultuous battles, with a high rate of casualties.
Typically, each ti the Constellation Palace opened, at least one lee Battle et of Ten Thousand would take place. The exact timing wasn't fixed.
Cultivators participating in the competitions of the Constellation Palace didn't have much autonomy; entering through a portal into the competition zone ant whatever awaited them was beyond their control, except for one instance: the lee Battle et of Ten Thousand.
Because if a cultivator wished to participate in this, they would first need to register! Only if selected by the Constellation Palace could they enter; if not selected, entry was impossible.
The lee Battle et of Ten Thousand had no explicit rules. The knowledge and revelations were amassed by cultivators who had participated in previous ets.
At this mont, many cultivators were leaving their aura marks on the backside of the Cumulated Points Ranking; this was the registration phase.
Seizing the opportunity, Lu Ye left his aura mark there as well.
As to whether he'd be selected... that couldn't be guaranteed. Each lee Battle et of Ten Thousand had nurous applicants, numbering at least several hundred thousand, with the actual selection ranging from a minimum of ten thousand to as many as fifty thousand, making the odds not particularly high.
He opted not to partake in further competitions but instead set up a Formation in a nearby corner, crafting array discs, quietly waiting.
Because the lee Battle et of Ten Thousand operated with high efficiency, the registration phase lasted only one day. One day later, results were announced, followed by half a day's preparation ti, before the event formally comnced.
One day later, the slots for the lee Battle et of Ten Thousand were announced.
Lu Ye felt a hint of disappointnt; he hadn't been selected.
Without selection, participation wasn't possible, and without participation, the chance to showcase the As-Close-As-Siblings Array Disc on such a grand stage would be out of the question.
He had waited so long for this opportunity, and after this, there might not be another chance quite this good.
After a mont's thought, he took out an audio talisman and sent a ssage: "Did you get selected?"
The audio talisman soon replied, sounding sowhat excited: "Boss, you finally replied! I haven't offended you or anything, why were you ignoring ?"
"Enough with the small talk."
Chu Shen quickly responded: "I got selected! Boss, are you participating too? Let's join forces again and dominate the scene!"
Lu Ye looked up at the do, sending a ssage: "Co to Hall 485."
"On my way!"
Shortly afterward, Lu Ye, seated within the Formation, saw Chu Shen looking around in curiosity. Unlocking the Formation, he gestured to him, and Chu Shen eagerly rushed over, a wide smile on his face: "Boss, it's been a month; I've missed you much."
Lu Ye looked at him calmly: "I need your participation slot."
The participation slots for the lee Battle et of Ten Thousand could be transferred. So cultivators, even after being selected, couldn't participate due to various reasons. As long as the cultivator was willing, the slot could be transferred, needing only a confirmation from the Constellation Palace.
Chu Shen's smile froze awkwardly, feeling a bit uncomfortable: "Boss, this... this isn't right, is it?"
He was lucky to be selected, and for Chu Shen, such a grand event was not sothing he wished to miss, so even with requests from Lu Ye, he was unwilling to easily agree to this.
"Then help get an entry quota." Lu Ye was well-prepared.
He didn't know many people here, but it was different for Chu Shen, the young master of Cheling World and the cherished son of a Sun Blaze cultivator; finding an entry quota was naturally simple for him.
"I'll do my best, but I can't guarantee this kind of thing..."
Chu Shen didn't finish speaking before he saw an As-Close-As-Siblings Array Disc appear in Lu Ye's hand, making his eyes widen.
With his mother's explanation, how could he not recognize the value of this item? He had been trying to contact Lu Ye all month for this very array disc.
"After this is done, this is yours!"
Chu Shen was initially stunned, then he patted his chest: "Leave it to !"
Lu Ye nodded, and under Chu Shen's reluctant gaze, he put away the array disc.
No ti to lose, Chu Shen imdiately took out an audio talisman to communicate externally, obviously seeking assistance from Jiu Yan. Speaking directly to others to relinquish their participation quota was ineffective; Jiu Yan's intervention was the most efficient.
While Chu Shen was busy with this, Lu Ye had already arrived at Grand Hall 88.
He wanted to buy a long saber!
With the various scenarios he had recently encountered, using his Boulder Mountain Saber wasn't an issue. There were many combat cultivators in this world, and many used sabers. The Boulder Mountain Saber's design wasn't unusual, quite common actually, so even if he used it in battle, it wouldn't matter, as long as he wasn't captured in an image ssage.
But participating in the upcoming lee Battle et was different. Eventually, the scenes of the lee Battle et would be presented by the Constellation Palace, aning that cultivators stationed in various great halls could imrse their minds and observe the event's developnts. Under such public scrutiny, he didn't want to expose anything associated with himself.
Finding a substitute long saber was crucial, even if it ant compromising his own combat effectiveness.
In Grand Hall 88, Lu Ye searched among various stalls.
He didn't take too long to find a suitable long saber.
Its design was almost identical to the Boulder Mountain Saber, which was essential because a different design would significantly affect his combat prowess.
It was lighter than the Boulder Mountain Saber, which was unavoidable since Lu Ye had originally modified his Boulder Mountain Saber to include so weight-adding materials.
This long saber, nad Crimson Dragon, overall t Lu Ye's requirents and emitted a striking blood-colored glow.
The quality was decent, considered a supre-grade spirit treasure.
After bargaining with the vendor, he acquired it for nearly seven thousand spirit jades.
This was quite expensive because an average spirit treasure cost two to three thousand spirit jades, and even better ones were just above five thousand.
Seven thousand was undoubtedly pricey, both due to its high quality and its sale in the Constellation Palace.
Lu Ye figured if he'd bought a similar spirit treasure at the All Phenona Ocean, it would have only cost five to six thousand spirit jades.
But for the sake of what he was about to do, now wasn't the ti to fuss over these details.
After purchasing the Crimson Dragon, Chu Shen sent a ssage confirming everything was settled, just waiting for the lee Battle et to comnce.
The efficiency was impressive; after all, he had been trying to contact Lu Ye for a month over the array disc, and now that he got one for free, he naturally gave it his all.
When Lu Ye returned to his original Grand Hall 485, he saw a young man standing next to Chu Shen.
This person undoubtedly had the entry quota for the lee Battle et and was chosen to relinquish it to Lu Ye.
When they t, they exchanged greetings, and the young man was very respectful, likely having received instructions from Jiu Yan.
"Boss, the person is here, so that thing..." Chu Shen was hesitant, having already made guarantees to Jiu Yan. If Lu Ye reneged, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.
"You won't miss out on it. I'll give it to you when I return!"
Chu Shen pondered briefly. With the chaotic and competitive environnt of the lee Battle et, Fa Wuzun certainly needed the array disc's assistance, and having its aid would be conducive to success, so he didn't insist further.
Moreover, he was confident that Fa Wuzun wouldn't cheat him on such matters.
A short while later, Chu Shen beca serious: "It's starting!"
As he spoke, the void before him twisted, forming a small portal. At the sa ti, a similar portal appeared before the young man.
Not only with them, but several other people in the hall also experienced the sa, all undoubtedly holding qualifications to partake in the lee Battle et.
Through this small portal, cultivators could enter the venue of the lee Battle et, and transferring the quota was necessary at this ti.
Lu Ye stepped toward the portal before the young man but was t with a powerful obstruction, preventing him from advancing.
The young man looked at Chu Shen, who nodded at him, and the young man then focused his thoughts.
The force obstructing Lu Ye vanished without a trace.
As Lu Ye's figure disappeared, Chu Shen's voice rang in his ear: "Boss, keep in touch in there, I'll co find you!"
