Chapter 437 - Envoys From Empire

One day later,

Thousands of people gathered in a huge stadium. The stadium was newly made for the competition, right now, it was packed with thousands of people who came to watch the grand competition.

Feng Yun and other members of the Mystic Heaven Peak also arrived at the stadium. ;

"Feng Yun, who are these two girls?" Zhu Rong looked at three girls who just came to Feng Yun and said curiously.

"Cheng Yu, Ye Qingge, and Ye An, both are my friend. They came here to watch the grand competition." Feng Yun said as he introduced Cheng Yu and two fox girls. Cheng Yu, Ye Qingge, and Ye An greeted Su Rou and others with a smile.

Three of them were training inside the black pagoda non-stop for months, hearing such a big event taking place they decided to watch it, refreshing their moods a bit.

Ye Qingge and Ye An both cultivated concealing techniques that could hide their beast qi and their fluffy ears and tails. Now, they looked no different from two normal human girls.

"Brother Feng Yun, your luck is superb when it came to girls, you must have been born with harem god's blessing." Zhu Rong said enviously.

"Haha, It's not my fault that I am super handsome." Feng Yun laughed. Everyone rolled at him.

"Hmph! Narcissistic!" Zhou Mingyue and Cheng Yu both snorted after hearing his words. Feng Yun let out a chuckle at their reaction then said, "What Narcissistic? Aren't I handsome?"

"Okay stop wasting time, we should go to the plaza, the competition is about to begin soon." Ding Shu said.

"Sure, but I have to do something first. Such big event happening, there should be some money earning machine here."

"Are you talking about the betting house, there are over there." Zhu Rong said as he pointed his finger into a direction of a small store.

"Hmm! These betting houses opened by Long Clan, they should be trustworthy." Feng Yun saw the sign of Long Imperial Clan over the store and said. ;

"Let's make some money!" Feng Yun grinned. Others also followed behind him.

"What is the reward for betting on the first place." Feng Yun asked the broker. Feng Yun didn't ask about any other betting system, directly inquired what he needed.

"Ten times!" The broker immediately replied.

"is there any limit to the betting?"

The man looked at Feng Yun and said, "No!"

Feng Yun smiled and took out a storage ring, "Here, 1 million High-Grade Spirit Stone, I'm betting on my for the first place."

Everyone was stunned when they heard his words.

"1 million High-Grade Spirit stone! Brother Feng Yun, did you rob bank or something where did you get so many spirit stones." Zhu Rong exclaimed lout loudly.

"Haha, something like that!" Feng Yun laughed lightly, then he looked at the broker, "Can I place my bet or not?"

"Y-yes, sure!" The broker awake from his daze and said, then he took the storage ring from Feng Yun and checked the amount of spirit, after confirming, he started writing down his bet. ;

After that, Zhu Rong and others also placed a bet on Feng Yun.

"You girls can go to the spectator area of Mystic Heaven Peak with Su Rou." Feng Yun said to Cheng Yu and two fox sisters.

"Feng Yun, be careful!" Cheng Yu nodded and said.

"I will!" Feng Yun nodded then he started to towards the middle empty field. There are two big square-shaped platforms built in the middle of the stadium for the battles.

Feng Yun and all 99 other final participants gathered into the field.

At this moment, the leaders of various forces also moved into the VIP area. Emperor Long Shan also arrived, strangely there were two more people with Emperor Long, and he seemed to have a very respectful attitude towards them, one middle-aged man and a woman.

It was hard to guess that these two people must be a member of the Empire who came here select young geniuses. The leader and elders of the clans also greeted two people respectfully, except one person who didn't even glance at two people much less greeting them, sitting there quietly.

The man and woman from the empire noticed that person, they were a little displeased. As being the members of the big empire, their self steam was high when they were meeting people of the Long Dynasty. They expected a respectful and humble attitude from the people of dynasties as they have gotten used to that, now there was someone who didn't even bother giving them some face, obviously, they were a little displeased.

"Sir Envoy, please don't mind her. She has a bit of an eccentric character." At this time, Sect Master Shen Jiaohao speak out politely. The person none other Fan Xingjuan who didn't greet the envoy of the empire. ;

The man and woman nodded lightly and sat down giving a last look to Fan Xingjuan. The entire time, Fan Xingjuan didn't look at them once, she seems to lose in her deep thoughts.

Sect Master Shen Jiaohao sent his voice transmission to Fan Xingjuan, "Elder Fan, what are you doing? Why don't you greet the envoys."

"Oh! I was thinking of something!" Fan Xingjuan replied plainly. Sect Master smiled wryly at her answer, she seems like she didn't care about the envoys slightly.

After everyone sat down on the seats, Long Shan finally stepped forward to speak as he was the host of the competition.

"All of you gathered here today to watch the martial competition of top young genius who came here from the region of all over Long Imperial Dynasty. The first round concluded on the ancient battlefield, the top hundred geniuses of the first round will take part in the second round today. All of you came to reach here after experiencing many things, so don't disappoint us today. Fight everything you have got." Long Shan was using his spirit to enhanced his voice because of this his voice reaching every corner of the stadium. The crowd became quiet and started listening to Long Shan's speech.

"Let me introduce our esteemed guest to all, Senior Kong Gui and Senior Fu Yingtai from the Black Turquoise Empire. They came here to watch the competition and select some outstanding genius to bring them to Black Turquoise Empire. You can obtain a chance to go to the Black Turquoise Empire for further cultivation if you manage to impress them with skills, talent, and strength."

"The competition will start in ten minutes, top hundred participants of the first round gathered into the field now. The rules of the competition are simple, your opponent will be fixed randomly using the slots. The 100 young geniuses will each draw a numbered command token that belongs to them and undergo advancement selection according to the order on these command tokens."

"Due to the number of people, we'll hold 2 battles at the same time in the beginning! Besides that, there will be someone specially assigned to record the outcome of each battle." long Shan had just spoken up to there when 2 figures flew up from below and stood behind him.

These were two middle-aged men, each of them occupied an arena. Obviously, these people were in charge of the battles.

"The first round of selection will eliminate half the people, and the second round of selection will once again eliminate half of the people remaining… At that time, only 25 people will remain.

"After the 25 people are decided, the rules will change once again. If a young genius with a good strength was eliminated due to having bad luck and felt disgruntled, then you'll be given a chance in the end, and you'll still have the chance to obtain one of the final 25 positions." Long Shan finished speaking in one go.

Subsequently, it was time to draw the command tokens.

A white-clothed old man arrived in the field, flowing in the air of the middle of the field. He waved his hand as a hundred gold cards shaped tokens appeared in the air. All of them looked exactly the same. The old man waved his hand again, suddenly all tokens flew out towards all participants. Each participant got one token.

Feng Yun looked at the token, it was the same from both sides. It was a metal flat token that folded together. There was a simple concealing array engraved on the golden token, they can't see what was inside the token without breaking the array. Feng Yun tried to use divine sense but found he can't peek inside it. ;

It was all for making the game fair, now even distributors don't know which token is which.

Concealing was very simple to break, breaking array, Feng Yun unfolded the gold token.

"4!" That was the number of Feng Yun's token.

"What number do you guys got?" Feng Yun asked Zhou Mingyue and others.

"18" Zhou Mingyue

"42" Zhu Rong

"87" Ding Shun

"96" Yao Shi

They called out their one by one. Total 10 disciples had reached the second round of the competition from the Mystic Heaven Peak. Feng Yun, Zhou Mingyue, Zhu Rong, Ding Shun, Mu Wenqian, Yang Jian(Sword Maniac), Xiang Yi, Bai Hui, Mao Zhong, Ma Zemin. ;

After that token was distributed, Long Shan spoke again, "The possessor of command token No. 1 will go against the possessor of command token No 2, the possessor of command token No. 3 will go against the possessor of command token No. 4, and so on and so forth. In the end, the possessor of command token No. 99 will go against the possessor of command token No. 100."
