Chapter 658: Chapter 597: Rules and Storm
Looking at the projection of the Taoist Collection Catalog, faced with a presence claid to be a record of all the Immortal Path techniques in the world, every student present showed a look of longing in their eyes.
As the speech of the Heavenly Calculation God Monarch concluded, images were projected in front of everyone, depicting the rules for the upcoming first match.
The first thing that appeared in the projection was the Floating Continent beneath their feet.
With streams of light flowing, these lights, symbolizing 100 students, were directed towards various parts of the continent.
Tao Qiankun’s gaze moved: “The 100 contestants are randomly placed on different parts of the Floating Continent?”
“Is it really a team match like this?” Wen Wuya’s eyes glimred with light: “We can freely use the Spirit Realm and all communication technologies, the Heavenly Patrol Flying Sword can still be used, but communication with people outside the arena is not allowed… It suits my abilities perfectly.”
Additional rules continued to erge, and the projection showed that fierce fights seed to be erupting on the Floating Continent, causing constant tremors and shaking.
Ye Xingli’s eyes flashed as he quickly photographed and saved the rules, while thinking to himself: “This team match has to last for 3 days, and the final victory is determined by the number of captives from each school?”
Yan Qianji smiled slightly: “Heh, just defeating opponents is useless, you have to capture them, right? The mont the match ends, the more captives, the more points, and among them, you can also rescue captives, so the key to the ga is the word ‘capture’?”
Jiutian Liu quietly pondered: “The score ranking at the end of this team match will decide the number of people who advance, determining the participants for the second match.”
“The school team ranked first can have 10 advancent slots. The school team ranked last can only have 1 slot, aning out of a team of 10 people, only one can be chosen to participate in the next match.”
Jiutian Liu made a judgnt in his heart: “The result of this match has a huge impact on subsequent matches, the higher the ranking, the more students can be selected for the next match. And to win, one must quickly reunite with teammates and gather allies from other schools.”
Zhang Yu took a deep breath and thought to himself: “With teams constantly assembling and uniting, this team match is likely to evolve… into a grand final showdown between the two major alliances headed by Wanfa and Heavenly Demon.”
Looking at one of the rules, Zhang Yu thought to himself: “Especially since killing opponents in the match is allowed, without eliminating players for killing nor requiring spirit coin compensation.”
“And quite a few people probably have the money to revive themselves, and so schools might even pay for revivals.”
“That ans even if you die in battle, if you have enough value, you can be revived and selected for the advancent slots… to participate in the next match.”
At this point, Zhang Yu seed to be able to imagine just how brutal this battle would be in the end.
On the other hand, in the Sky Demon University team, Kuang Tianqing saw the end of the rule set and couldn’t help but laugh: “Hmph, at the sa ti, a contestant can only carry one captive to move?”
“So even if I defeat them all, I can only capture one at a ti… Hmph, is this limiting ?”
anwhile, countless plants, materials, minerals, beasts, and even spirit veins and other resources seed to descend from the sky over the projection of the Floating Continent, making it a complete ecological environnt.
An Zhen True Monarch thought to himself: “With all sorts of resources available and a 3-day match duration, each field can fully utilize their specialties. That ans how to use the resources on the Floating Continent to enhance one’s combat power within these 3 days is also crucial.”
Then, looking at the massive resources on the Floating Continent, An Zhen True Monarch couldn’t help but think: “The company taking on this match’s field construction must be making a fortune.”
After the content and rules of the first match were announced, a 5-minute countdown imdiately appeared before everyone.
In 5 minutes, the 100 students from the top ten universities will be randomly placed across the entire continent.
These 5 minutes are the final preparation ti for everyone.
An Zhen True Monarch’s eyes flashed, and he imdiately said in the school team group: After this match starts, you can’t communicate with the outside world, but communication among contestants on the field, or using the school team group or four-school alliance group for internal communication is fine as well
An Zhen True Monarch: Upon entering, first confirm each other’s positions, then quickly communicate to determine the assembly point
An Zhen True Monarch: Don’t linger in battles along the way, don’t fight solo, with the fastest speed complete the assembly, this is the key in the early stages of this match…
Ye Xingli asked: What if we encounter people from Heavenly Sword, Vajra, and Immortal Soldier on the way?
An Zhen True Monarch: They can still be trusted, if they’re on the way, then join them
With the exchange between An Zhen True Monarch and the students, the 5 minutes quickly passed.
In an instant, in the Spirit Realm, rays of brilliance seed to wrap around the students.
From this mont on, they could no longer contact anyone outside the arena.
The next mont, accompanied by an invisible force acting on Zhang Yu, he felt his body soar into the sky, turning into a stream of light, shooting toward a corner of the Floating Continent.
At the sa ti, a full hundred streams of light, like a hundred teors, streaked across the sky, covering the entire continent.
“Senior Sister is in that position…”
Zhang Yu’s eyes quickly scanned the trajectory of the streams of light.
Although he couldn’t see the people inside the streams of light, he rembered standing together with his fellow Wanfa University students just before the light enveloped them, allowing Zhang Yu to recall which streams represented his friends.
“Tao Qiankun, Jiutian Liu, Yan Qianji… They’re all a bit far from .”
As he pondered, the ground below grew closer, and with a loud crash, Zhang Yu had crashed into a forest.
As leaves flew, the enormous impact stirred up a gale, uprooting a large patch of giant trees, clearing an open space in this dense forest.
In a crater as if struck by a teor, Zhang Yu’s figure slowly floated up, with a Sword Box more than three ters tall following him.
Apart from storing 24 Taihao Sacred Law Flying Swords, the Sword Box also contained other items like the Golden Silk Jade Pendant, Earth Suppression Seal, and spare Taiyi Golden Liquid Pills as Magic Treasures.
Simultaneously, information appeared in the school team group.
Tao Qiankun: Report your positions, I will co to your central point, and you all co to find .
Jiutian Liu looked at the chaotic data jumping in his eye sockets, frowned, and replied: Unable to confirm geographic coordinates.
Beside Yan Qianji, the Heavenly Sun Divine Belt ignited with flas, sensing in all directions, then his gaze shifted, and he said: There is strong geomagnetic interference on this floating continent.
Yan Qianji: The entire continent might be covered by an array, unable to confirm positions using conventional thods.
Tao Qiankun asked: Zhang Yu, any ideas?
Zhang Yu patted the sword box, and 24 Taihao Sacred Law Flying Swords soared into the sky, sweeping rapidly in all directions with him as the center.
Zhang Yu: I still rember the map of the Floating Island, it will take about 1 to 2 hours to recheck the base and establish the geographic model again.
Tao Qiankun frowned and said: You roughly rember the location you fell, right? Send out map markers.
Then, the mbers of the team each sent maps of the Floating Continent and marked their falling locations.
Tao Qiankun finally marked the central point of the other nine and said: You all head here.
Tao Qiankun: I will wait for you here.
Tao Qiankun: Rember to keep a low profile, you can hide your Spirit Realm projection and Foundation Establishnt Domain.
Tao Qiankun: Don’t get sniped halfway.
Then he sent out a ssage in the four-school alliance group: If you see and need protection, you can follow behind .
After sending this ssage, Tao Qiankun looked towards the target location, then pointed at the sky.
“Wind, co!”
In the next mont, a mass of dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, and spread rapidly at an inconceivable speed.
Wild wind, torrential rain, thunder, lightning… in the blink of an eye, a storm had ford.
Ten ters, hundred ters, thousand ters… a hundred kiloters!
The storm’s impact expanded to a hundred kiloters in an instant.
In the center of the storm, Tao Qiankun appeared like a deity mastering the celestial phenona, countless thunders and lightnings, torrents and whirlpools seeming to bow at his feet, transforming into dragon shapes, escorting him as he shot towards the target location.
A student from White Bone University watched this scene from afar, observing the silhouette barely visible at the center of the teorological disaster, only feeling he could hear the other’s speech amidst the explosive thunder.
Don’t bother !
The student from White Bone University watched the gigantic characters forming from the Spirit Realm projection at the storm’s center, and beneath them, the flamboyant three characters of Tao Qiankun…
He swallowed, and quickly left softly, seemingly afraid to cause any disturbance, lest he attract attention to his existence.
…
In the jungle, Zhang Yu’s figure flickered rapidly, creating gusts of wild wind, racing towards the agreed location.
But just then, a sharp whistling sound ca from the sky, and a wave of coldness suddenly enveloped Zhang Yu.
With a crackling explosion, Zhang Yu turned around and struck with a palm, colliding with the incoming silhouette.
A heavy gust blasted from the impact point, sweeping in all directions, shaking the surrounding layers of trees wildly.
Seeing the figure erging from the blast, Zhang Yu’s gaze sharpened: Sky Demon University?
The man in front showed no intention of hiding the Spirit Realm projection above his head.
Sky Demon University’s 7th overall rank, the na of Ying Yufan from the Monster Departnt already appeared in Zhang Yu’s sight.
Although the other’s appearance looked quite human-like, the tufts of feathers hidden in his hair exposed his identity as a Demon Descendant.
Zhang Yu knew that among Demon Descendants, so possessed high-level bloodlines, claiming that the purer the bloodline, the more human-like they appeared, with fewer demon characteristics. Ying Yufan was evidently such a case.
Ying Yufan showed a slight smile: Zhang Yu from Wanfa University?
Zhang Yu’s gaze hardened, sensing undisguised malice from the other’s eyes.
Ying Yufan looked at the striking red-purple projection above Zhang Yu’s head and coldly laughed: Scum, you are the weakest among Wanfa University’s 10 participants this ti, aren’t you?
“Then don’t bla for starting the hunt with you.”
“After all, survival of the fittest is the law of nature.”
In the next mont, with a loud laugh from Ying Yufan, his flesh suddenly expanded, transforming from human to a massive dragon shape instantly, and with a spread of his five fingers, his dragon claws reached out to grasp Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu’s heart sank, recognizing the cultivation technique the other displayed.
Sky Demon University’s Monster Departnt Military Level Taoist Skill — Heavenly Demon Hundred Transformations Technique.
