“By the way, what is a Heavenly Pool?” Su Yang asked Bai Lihua after sitting down.
“The Heavenly Column is something that is inside the Sky Mountain, where the Ancestor of the Xie Family is rumored to be in closed cultivation. As for the Heavenly Pool itself, it was a small pond that contained a kind of heavenly water that was naturally filled with Profound Qi. It is also rumored that if you cultivate there, your cultivation speed will increase by 100 times. In other words, if you cultivate there for 7 days, it will be the same as cultivating for 700 days. \ “Bai Lihua explained to him.
“How can something amazing exist in this world?” Liu Lanzhi revealed astonishment after hearing that.
“Yes, this is an amazing heaven-defying place. However, it would take about 100 years to restore the Profound Qi after a month of cultivation in the pond.” Bai Lihua continued.
“100 years for a month of cultivation ?! And the Xie Family is willing to give 7 days to the winner of this tournament? It was even almost too generous for them.” Liu Lanzhi.
Bai Lihua nodded. “Indeed it was too generous of them. In fact, some Sect Masters believed that the Xie Family was somehow aware of the outcome of the tournament, hence why they were willing to give such an award.
” means the Xie Family knows who will win this tournament and deliberately chose this prize as a prize for them? Sounds a little too silly. \ “
After all, why would the Xie Family do something like this when they could directly grant access to the Celestial Pond without using the tournament as an excuse?
“Who knows. It was also possible that the Xie Family felt very generous this year. It was just a conspiracy at the end of the day.” Bai Lihua shrugged her shoulders.
‘Celestial Pond, yes ..’ Su Yang muttered to himself.
Within the Four Heavenly Heavens, there were many locations similar to these Heavenly Ponds, and they were mostly occupied by the strongest households.
‘Even if it cannot be compared to the ones in the heavenly Heavens, it will greatly help my cultivation at the current level. “He nodded to himself.
After waiting for about half an hour, two figures appeared on the platform that was near the arena, where luxurious seats were arranged.
“Your Majesty, Lord Xie, has arrived! \”
\ “Your Majesty, Princess Xie, has arrived! \”
The guards around the colosseum shouted loudly as their figures appeared, and everyone in the colosseum immediately stood up and lowered their heads towards them.
Lord Xie casually waved his sleeve before sitting on one of the luxurious chairs while Xie Xingfang, who was wearing a veil on his face sat beside him.
“That's Fairy Xie? This is the first time I've seen him!”
“Although she has a veil covering her face, I can say that she is an peerless beauty underneath!”
\ “Look at fair skin and perfect figure! He is undoubtedly an unparalleled beauty! \”
“Are you sure you want to be here? If your body suddenly .. \” Lord Xie looks at him with worried eyes.
If Xie Xingfang had not asked her to allow him to appear today, she would not have let him leave the house because of the condition of his body.
“I'll be fine, dad. If anything happens, Su Yang is here,” Xie Xingfang said as he turned to look towards Su Yang.
“...” Lord Xie narrowed his eyes at Su Yang, who was casually surrounded by beauty on all sides.
A few hours of silence later, Lord Xie turned his head to look at the old man standing near the stage and nodded his head.
The old man noticed Lord Xie's signal and quickly stepped onto the stage.
“Thank you to everyone for coming here today. I, Zi Dong, will be the referee today. Before we start the first game today, allow me to explain some rules. \”
\ “First and foremost, killing is prohibited in the arena. Even if it was an accident, if you killed an opponent, your Sect would be fined 10 million Spirit Stones! \ ”
\” 10 Million Spirit Stones?!?! \ “
The audience was stunned by this new rule. 10 Million Spirit Stones was an enormous astronomical wealth even for the Elite Sect, let alone the rest. If they killed someone today, they would definitely go bankrupt. Once that happened, the Sect would no longer be able to support its disciples and collapse.
“Don't these new rules put unnecessary pressure on the participants, limiting their full prowess? If I were them, I would be too afraid to fight! \”
\ “Really? Accidents will definitely happen. 10 million Spirit Stones is too harsh of a punishment. \ ”
The spectators whispered their concerns to each other.
“For the second rule, the participants are prohibited from using weapons and personal possessions to avoid injustice.”
Unlike Martial Techniques that require one's talent to master, holding a powerful treasure to defeat your opponent doesn't require such a thing, hence why tournaments prohibit the use of personal weapons.
After all, if one could enter the stage with an undisclosed powerful weapon, what points would be left for the skill tournament?
“Three, participants should have a protective charm given to them before they enter the stage, as this will allow them to fight without worrying about killing each other accidentally. Unless your opponents are in the Heaven Spirit Realm, they won't be “I can watch very carefully in case something goes wrong, so fight with all your heart.”
“This is the three main rules of this tournament. And without further ado, allow me to introduce the participants to the first match today – Golden Sect Altar and Lotus Burning Sect! \”
After Zi Dong introduced the two parties, the Burning Lotus Sect and Golden Altar Sect stepped onto the stage, causing the audience to explode with excitement.
