The First Elder of the Great Martial Sacred Land looked at the crowd below and said, "Those participants, who want to withdraw from the competition, can shatter their tokens. After shattering the tokens, you'll lose your qualification to participate in the competition. This way, you won't have to go to the Demon World!"
Silence!
Once again, silence enveloped the entire Great Martial City.
After knowing about the reward, no participant wanted to retreat. Even though they knew that they'll fall into life-threatening dangers after going to the Demon World, none of them wanted to withdraw at this moment.
There was a saying, mortal die for food and cultivator die for treasures.
This saying perfectly fits the current situation.
Previously, when the First Elder of the Great Martial Sect announced the First Round of the Competition, everyone started cursing him and more than half of the participants wanted to withdraw from the competition. Now that the First Elder announced the reward that the winner of the First Round will receive, not a single person choose to come forward and withdraw.
Greed was flashing in their eyes at this moment. Everyone wanted to fight and survive for two years inside the Demon World now. Because it'll bring them a great opportunity. This kind of opportunity was only one in a lifetime's opportunity unless they become a disciple of the Great Martial Sacred Land and contribute greatly to obtain enough contribution points.
Of course, they had to raise their cultivation to the Ancient Immortal Realm first.
But this was impossible. Not to mention raising their cultivation bases to the Ancient Immortal Realm in a short time, with their strength and talent, it was simply impossible for them to become the disciples of the Great Martial Sacred Land.
If they were really that talented, they would have long become the disciples of the Sacred Lands in their worlds. They would not have remained as the disciples of First leveled Sects.
Seeing that no one came forward, the First Elder of the Great Martial Sacred Land snorted coldly in his heart. Then he again looked down and said, "Since no one is withdrawing from the competition, I announce, let the First Round of the Competition of Myriad Worlds begin!"
The moment the First Elder said this, a bright light flashed in the sky and then six pillars of light descended in the Great Martial City randomly and quickly formed a dimensional gate.
These were the gates that'll lead the participants of the Competition of Myriad Worlds to go to six different Demon Worlds.
The First Elder of the Great Martial Sacred Land again said, "All of you can now enter the dimensional gates. Remember, only 550,550 people can enter each gate. If any more people want to enter, they'll be repelled by the dimensional gate."
None of the disciples listened carefully to what the old man said, the moment the pillars of light descended in the Great Martial City randomly and formed dimensional gates, the participants dashed towards each one of them. All of them raced against each other to enter the dimensional gate.
"Yue Ying, It's time for me to leave. You take care of yourself. We'll meet after two years, ok?"
It was at this time, Ye Xiao held the hand of Yue Ying gently and said.
Yue Ying didn't want to part but she also knew, it was not possible. So she held herself back, forced a smile on her face, and replied, "Hmm! You also take care of yourself. And remember to come back safely."
"I will!" Ye Xiao smiled, let go of Yue Ying's hand, used the ability Spirit Devour Escape and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Seeing Ye Xiao disappearing, Yue Ying bit the corner of her lips. Her eyes became moist but she quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, and muttered, "I'll be waiting for you to come back. Also, the next time you'll see me, you'll see a different me!"
.....
Ye Xiao randomly chose a dimensional gate and rushed forward in its direction. It didn't take him long to arrive in front of the dimensional gate.
Since hundreds of thousands of people were struggling to enter the dimensional gate, a huge crowd was formed in front of him. Participants were fighting to enter. They were pushing each other, and if by chance, someone fell down on the ground, none of the participants went to help them stand up. Instead, they trampled down those people and went forward.
Because of this, the situation became very chaotic. Even some of the people's bones broke into pieces because of such chaos.
From the sky, the First Elder of the Great Martial Sacred Land was seeing everything. He sighed and muttered, "And at last, we have neglected one thing. We didn't expect the situation to become this chaotic, sigh!"
Although he was sighing, he didn't do anything to calm down the crowd. He left the crowd to fight amongst each other. It was up to them how they will enter the dimensional gate.
In front of the six pillars of light, the situation was extremely chaotic.
Ye Xiao could not hold himself back when he saw such a situation. His aura surged out and immediately, a great pressure descended on the people in front of him, forcing everyone to stop fighting. All of them circulated their cultivation technique to withstand the pressure but the pressure was so heavy that they could not even let out a single word from their mouths.
"Hmm?"
This scene fell in the eyes of the First Elder of the Great Martial Sacred Land. He frowned and soon noticed Ye Xiao.
"He is not bad. No, he is even better than the core disciples of Sacred Lands. Only his cultivation is lacking. Just who is he?" The First Elder muttered in his heart.
At this moment, Ye Xiao's aura, which could even make an Immortal Emperor Realm struggle, was descending on the crowd in front of him like a huge mountain. Ye Xiao's face was cold at this moment.
He didn't emit his aura to suppress these people, he did this to stop the chaos and enter the dimensional gate. He was no saint. If the people wanted to fight and cause chaos, they could do that after he entered the dimensional gate.
Ye Xiao slowly floated in the air, executed the Spirit Devour Escape, turned into a flash of light, and directly entered the dimensional gate. The moment Ye Xiao entered the gate, the terrifying aura pressing down the crowd also disappeared.
Before leaving, Ye Xiao left behind some words: "Why bother to fight? Why don't you all form a line and enter one by one? Anyway, the dimensional gate will not disappear until all the participants enter the Demon World!"
When Ye Xiao disappeared into the dimensional gate, the terrifying pressure also disappeared, causing all the people to heave a sigh of relief.
They also came back to their senses became obedient as they accepted Ye Xiao's suggestion.
In just five minutes, a huge line was formed and participants started to enter the dimensional gate one by one.
"What a terrifying aura was that? I think that person must be at least at the Late Stage of Immortal King Realm."
"That pressure was really breath-taking. That person must be very powerful and very terrifying."
"Although that person is terrifying, his heart is not bad. Only because of him, we have formed a line to enter. Otherwise, we would have still been fighting with each other to enter the dimensional gate and injure each other. If that really have happened, we would already have been gravely injured even before entering the Demon World. And if we have entered the Demon World with those injuries, we would have become an extremely easy target to the demons there."
"Yes, you are right. That person was definitely not a bad person!"
As the participants continued to enter the dimensional gates one by one, they also continued to praise Ye Xiao.
Even the First Elder of the Great Martial Sacred Land had praise on his face. He had already noticed Ye Xiao and was now just waiting for him to come out from the demon world after two years as a winner.
At that time, he will invite Ye Xiao to join the Great Martial Sacred Land.
He had already decided to do this.
He really liked the way Ye Xiao acted. If not for Ye Xiao, who knows how many people would have been injured and how many would have died.
The chaos in front of the dimensional gate also wouldn't have been solved.
Most importantly, Ye Xiao was an extremely strong individual. From his aura, the First Elder has already guessed that even an Early and Middle Stage Immortal Emperor Realm martial artist might not be a match for Ye Xiao.
How can he miss such a young man?
He also wanted to invite Ye Xiao to enter 'that' place.
He had no idea that Ye Xiao was already chosen by the Sect Leader of the Double Sword Sacred Land.
