Chapter 1012: Chapter 535: The Tournant Chapter 1012: Chapter 535: The Tournant Three days later.
On a plain several miles from Lin Family Mountain Gate at Green Bamboo Mountain.
In just a few days, this boundless plain had been transford by the Lin Family mbers.
Now, it boasted a high and large grandstand, with many neatly arranged seats atop it.
This was the temporary venue set up by the Lin Family for a friendly martial exchange.
Early in the morning, a large number of Cultivators arrived at the site, led by the Lin Family mbers.
The martial competition held by the Lin Family drew many Cultivators, so of whom ca not to compete but to join in the excitent and watch.
...
After all, in addition to lectures, the Lin Family assembly had arranged a sparring contest between Cultivators.
For this purpose, the Lin Family had announced the event early, along with generous rewards.
According to the earliest announcents, there would be two categories of competition this ti, one for Qi Refining Cultivators and the other for Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
The rules for both categories allowed all Cultivators to sign up and compete in a king-of-the-hill style to decide the final champions.
As long as a Cultivator could defend their position as the king of the hill against challengers and end up in the top ten, they would get to draw lots to select an opponent.
Regardless of win or lose, the top ten would receive substantial rewards.
For the first place winner, the Lin Family had put forth a highly valued Foundation Establishnt Pill as the prize.
Such treasures were exceedingly rare in the Cultivation World and keenly sought after by all Qi Refining Families.
Take the Lin Family, for instance, which had been thrilled for a long ti after procuring the slightly inferior Minor Foundation Building Pill years ago.
By this token, even just one Foundation Establishnt Pill was a coveted treasure for all Qi Refining Families,
and, used properly, could even create a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, thus elevating a Qi Refining Family to the stronger status of a Foundation Establishing Family.
As for the Foundation Establishnt Area competition, the rules were similar to the Qi Refining Area,
but due to the number of participants, there were destined to be fewer matches.
Even so, the commotion in the Foundation Establishnt Area was sure to far exceed the Qi Refining Area.
Moreover, the rewards for the Foundation Establishnt Area were significantly greater than those for the Qi Refining Area.
According to the Lin Family, the top prize in the Foundation Establishnt Area was a Hun Tian Pill and a varying number of Spirit Stones.
The effects of the Hun Tian Pill could directly boost a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator’s realm.
Once in the Foundation Establishnt Stage, cultivation becos much more challenging, and many Cultivators spend their entire lives stuck at the initial stage.
With a Hun Tian Pill, those at the late stage of Foundation Establishnt could move up a minor realm.
Even for Cultivators at the initial stage of Foundation Establishnt, the effects of this pill were more pronounced, and it wasn’t impossible for them to leap two minor realms in one go.
Thus, the value of the Hun Tian Pill was on par with, if not exceeding, the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
Under these circumstances, the rewards for the Foundation Establishnt Area indeed outvalued those of the Qi Refining Area. Although there were fewer participants, the competition was bound to be fierce, perhaps even more so than in the Qi Refining Area.
Well aware of this fact, this sparring contest caught the attention of nurous Cultivators.
So were raring to go, eager to participate.
Others, recognizing their own limitations, promptly dismissed the idea of competing.
However, even if they did not compete, watching the clashes of many Cultivators and gaining so experience was enlightening.
Thus, by early this morning, already a thousand Cultivators had gathered here.
They congregated at the designated spot, chatting idly and waiting for the competition to begin.
As Lin Shihua and other Lin Family mbers arrived, the Cultivators on-site imdiately fell silent, greeting Lin Shihua.
In a short while, Lin Shikang and Lin Tianming also arrived together, seemingly appearing out of nowhere on the high platform.
Their presence imdiately captured everyone’s attention.
At that mont, while the Cultivators wore looks of astonishnt, they all bowed respectfully, their deanor reverent and filled with respect for the Golden Core Cultivators.
Seeing this, Lin Shikang and the others gestured for the Cultivators not to stand on ceremony.
Lin Shikang then glanced at the thousand Cultivators below and gave Lin Shihua a nod.
Understanding his signal, Lin Shihua stepped forward and his booming voice filled the air.
“Fellow Daoists, today is the day the Lin Family holds the competition.”
“As for the rules of this competition, I presu you’re all acquainted with them, but allow to announce them once more for mory’s sake.”
“Shortly, if you’re inclined to participate, Qi Refining Cultivators may register over there, while Foundation Establishnt Cultivators can sign up with .”
Having said that, Lin Shihua continued, ticulously reading out the specific rules of the competition.
Soon after Lin Shihua finished enurating the rules, Cultivators could not wait any longer.
“Daoist Lin, I wish to register for participation!”
A confident Foundation Establishnt Fifth Level Cultivator declared with a smile on his face.
“Very well, Daoist Chen, you’re on the list!”
Lin Shihua responded, then handed a token to the registering Chen Cultivator.
The Chen Cultivator gratefully accepted the token and imdiately inspected the number inscribed upon it.
