"And I firmly believe that the empire will co to support us, holding on until the end. Eventually, the support arrived. Even if the city was breached, I still had rit because I delayed for a very long ti."
"It seems that I have passed this stage," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
At the end of the dream, he even received a reward, which couldn’t possibly be a bad thing.
Everything afterward was as if nothing had ever happened. Zhao Xing originally didn’t know how many candidates there were, so even if there were fewer now, he would remain unaware.
In the Yan God Star System, ng Wu received specific intelligence.
"A total of 3,548 people were eliminated, with one-tenth killed directly. The rest were either expelled or detained."
"Over a thousand people are to be confined here?"
After reading it, ng Wu scoffed, "Really unruly."
He continued reading, then ca across a result that made him frown.
"Eighty-five percent of the Reincarnation Realm individuals were actually put into the Reincarnation group?"
"The Minister of Agriculture’s percentage is even higher, reaching ninety percent. Hmph! What a dream!"
ng Wu could understand why those in the Reincarnation Realm felt temporarily detached from the Red Star Empire; after all, throughout the long ages, the empire has been insignificant for these past centuries.
The higher proportion among the Minister of Agriculture was probably due to so people wanting to enter the Primordial Realm to steal the top spells of the Minister of Agriculture profession.
Understanding, however, doesn’t an he wouldn’t be angry about it.
"If I were the one in charge, there wouldn’t be any Reincarnation group; I’d imprison them all for reformation," ng Wu muttered.
He glanced at the list; Zhao Xing’s na was not in the Reincarnation group.
For so reason, he felt a bit relieved.
The empire’s greatest gain in the Yuanhai Ancient Country wasn’t those in the Reincarnation Realm but Zhao Xing, who was only in the Origin Realm.
One must understand that this person has used the Ti Page to kidnap several Emperors and was even involved with Qing Yu Zi!
Although ng Wu didn’t know what his teacher intended or the specifics, it was clear that Zhao Xing’s allegiance to the empire would be beneficial.
"Wu Tian, get out here and get to work! A large batch of prisoners is about to arrive, and you need to give them a proper teaching!"
"Once you finish this batch, you can be released from prison!"
A voice filled with helplessness ca from within Erliang Slope, "Alas, fate..."
...
[Zhao Xing of the Beihai Star System, the competition rules for the Primordial Realm are now available. Please read carefully.]
The night after Emperor Chen Jiu’s departure, Zhao Xing received the competition details through the Star Mirror.
[Minister of Agriculture Self Sect, Battle Division, with a remaining total of 150,000 people.]
[The competition is divided into four stages.]
[Preliminary Stage: 2,000 arenas are set up, each with 75 participants. The 150,000 Ministers of Agriculture are randomly assigned to the arenas, where a free-for-all battle ensues. The last winner in each arena can enter the Primordial Realm and earn the right to choose a master.]
"As expected, in the Self Sect Battle Division, ultimately only about 2,000 people will proceed," Zhao Xing continued reading.
[Knockout Stage: 400 arenas are set up, with the 2,000 preliminary winners randomly assigned, 5 per arena. A round-robin format is used; each participant competes against the other 4 participants in their arena. Based on wins and point ranking, the top 2 participants in each arena advance to the semi-finals.]
"The round-robin format allows participants to fully showcase their skills, avoiding elimination due to a single mistake," Zhao Xing nodded.
After passing the preliminary stage, entering the Primordial Realm, the various stages that follow are simply to determine what type of master to apprentice under and what kind of treatnt to receive based on their performance.
In other words, the distribution of cultivation resources depends on one’s performance!
[Semi-final Stage: 80 arenas are set up, with the 800 knockout winners randomly assigned, 10 per arena. A group point system is used, with participants competing head-to-head, winners earning points, and losers earning none.]
[Based on point ranking, the top 2 participants in each arena advance to the finals, totaling 160 finalists.]
The group point system ensures fairness and provides more opportunities for participants to demonstrate their abilities.
[Final Stage: A single final arena is set up for the 160 semi-final winners.]
[The finals employ a knockout system, with matchups determined by drawing lots. Losers are eliminated, and winners progress until the last person is determined.]
"It seems the Primordial Realm believes that by the finals, the skill gap among these 160 participants won’t be significant," Zhao Xing mused.
"Advancing to the finals ans the resource gap is negligible; the main difference lies in the master you choose."
"Even if eliminated in the finals, there’s an opportunity to perform well enough to apprentice under a good master."
From among billions of geniuses in the Red Star Empire, there’s no need to narrow them down to a single digit by the end.
The empire’s resources are plentiful, and allocating a small portion to 160 geniuses is more than sufficient.
Thus, the resources defined in the rules are consistent for the 160 finalists.
However, the implicit resources of apprenticeship vary. The reason for holding a finals is to give the strong in the Primordial Realm a clearer view when selecting students.
It’s important to choose the right student to avoid giving the wrong guidance.
"Survive through the preliminary chaos to enter the Primordial Realm," Zhao Xing raised an eyebrow in excitent.
"But the greatest benefit is in choosing a master, where there’s a significant difference."
Even for soone in the Reincarnation Realm, apprenticing under a Senior Reincarnation Realm, Elite Reincarnation Realm, or Emperor-level Reincarnation Realm is vastly different.
"If I make it into the top ten, I might even be taken as a student by a demigod."
Zhao Xing took a deep breath and went to the central hall of his residence to wait.
The contestants’ rooms were specially designed, with a teleportation array in the central hall.
The array was circular, with a countdown tir ticking away on the floor.
It showed that there were only 48 hours remaining.
"In the first round of the preliminary, with 75 people, I just need to defeat the other seventy-four in the arena,"
Zhao Xing stepped into the circle, sat cross-legged, cleared his mind, and adjusted to peak condition.
As each second passed, his biological clock was perfectly in tune with the countdown on the array floor.
When the countdown ended, Zhao Xing opened his eyes, and the teleportation array lit up with a glow.
