Chapter 327: Chapter 31 Rules
The scenery before his eyes shifted, and in an instant, Lu Qingshan appeared in front of the Seal Spirit Tower.
The surrounding cultivators from various domains of the Human Race, all cast their gazes towards Lu Qingshan.
Some were cautious, some friendly, others admiring…
This time, Lu Qingshan, with his outstanding performance in the secondary trial, made everyone remember his name.
…
“Brother Lu, long time no see,” came a familiar voice from the crowd.
Lu Qingshan’s gaze swept over and saw Mo Yan approaching with a faint smile.
The corners of his mouth also lifted into an uncontrollable smile as he clasped his hands and said with a laugh, “Master Mo, it’s been a long time.”
When leaving the Seal Spirit Tower, Lu Qingshan also briefly glanced at the overall rankings of the top twenty from the tower’s secondary trial and noticed something indescribable.
The top twenty, aside from him and Mo Yan, the remaining eighteen names were exactly the same as those from the secondary trial of the Seal Spirit Tower in his past life!
And the two people replaced by him and Mo Yan were also closely followed, ranked twenty-first and twenty-second respectively.
This meant that, even though the trial had started nine years earlier, those outstanding talented cultivators were still outstanding and weren’t much affected.
The only change was that in the previous Seven Domains Debate secondary trial, all the top twenty started at Golden Core Perfection.
But now, due to a series of known and unknown butterfly effects, the Seven Domains Debate began nine years earlier, so everyone’s cultivation levels were uneven.
The highest cultivation was still with Zhou Yuan at Nascent Soul Early Stage, who in the past life amazed everyone at the age of forty-nine with Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivation and ultimately won the first place in the Seven Domains Debate.
At that time, many players thought that Zhou Yuan merely took advantage of his age, cultivating for a few more years, naturally having the upper hand in Nascent Soul against Golden Core battles.
Who would have imagined that nine years earlier, the then forty-year-old Zhou Yuan had already reached Nascent Soul Early Stage as a cultivator.
Everything seemed unchanged, except for himself and Mo Yan, these two sudden newcomers.
It was also because of this that Lu Qingshan felt an indescribable sense of closeness to Mo Yan.
—Mo Yan’s existence proved that everything he had done since coming to this world was not in vain.
With one more genius like Mo Yan among the Human Race, in the upcoming war against the Demon Race, the Human Race would at least have to sacrifice tens of thousands of cultivators less.
This was the significance of all his accomplishments.
“Congratulations.”
“Indeed, your performance was far too strong…”
While Lu Qingshan and Mo Yan were catching up, some of the surrounding talented cultivators, although not acquainted with the two, hesitated for a moment and still approached proactively, politely offering their congratulations.
…
“The Seven Domains Debate Seal Spirit Tower secondary trial has officially ended. The top ten thousand cultivators in the overall ranking will advance to the next round of the Seven Domains Debate, the group elimination round.”
While everyone was discussing, Chang Geng Sect Leader suddenly rose into the air, his presence deep and profound, causing everyone to grow solemn and the noisy scene to become dead silent.
Chang Geng Sect Leader’s gaze swept across all the cultivators, and his authoritative voice sounded, “Next, I will announce the rules for the group elimination round.”
“The groups will be decided by seven cultivators from our Taoist Sect, and we have also sorted you accordingly.”
As Chang Geng Sect Leader spoke, with a wave of his hand and a flourish of his sleeve, a huge screen of light appeared before everyone.
The projection of the light curtain hovered in midair, both its length and width measuring a hundred zhang, with ten thousand names listed upon it.
Ten thousand individuals were divided into ten major groups, with each group comprising a thousand people.
“A thousand people, how can we fight this? It’s impossible to go through cycles of one-on-one battles, right? How long would that even take?
“Could it be another elimination trial similar to the Seal Spirit Tower?”
Lu Qingshan, hearing the discussions of the cultivators beside him, couldn’t help but smile knowingly.
Indeed, to ensure absolute fairness, a cycle of battles would be necessary, but that would mean each person would have to fight nine hundred and ninety-nine matches—a tedious process with little practical significance.
Therefore, the rules of this round of group elimination matches are going to be particularly interesting.
At that moment, some had already noticed that within each of the ten major groups, there were three separate divisions, the first containing only ten individuals with names in gold, the second featuring ninety people with names in white, and the last section comprising nine hundred individuals with names in gray.
Lu Qingshan’s name was in gold, and it was also at the foremost position among the thousand names in his group.
In the sky, the powerful voice of Chang Geng Sect Leader once again rose, introducing, “Each major group is divided into three sequences, based on your preliminary round rankings and strength performance, as sorted by us.
“In each group, the First Sequence has ten people, the Second Sequence has ninety people, and the Third Sequence consists of nine hundred people.
“Those in the Third Sequence will each have two opportunities to challenge the cultivators of the Second Sequence.
“If they win, they can replace the position of the adversary; conversely, if they fail both attempts, they will be directly eliminated!
“Cultivators in the Second Sequence can be challenged up to five times.
“Moreover, those relegated from the Second to Third Sequence will also have two opportunities to challenge the cultivators in the Second Sequence to win back their position.
“If they fail both times, they will still be eliminated, until all spots in the Second Sequence are secured!
“Similarly, once the ninety spots in the Second Sequence are finalized, those individuals will have the right to challenge the First Sequence.
“But bear in mind, this time, each person has only one chance.
“Those demoted from the First Sequence to the Second Sequence will also have one chance to challenge for their place back in the First Sequence.”
Hearing these rules, the cultivators listed in the Third Sequence felt somewhat uncomfortable in their hearts.
To put it bluntly, the powerful cultivators of the Taoist Sect didn’t really have high hopes for them. Establishing this rule was akin to giving them one last opportunity.
Yet they had no power to refute it.
Through the gaze of the Taoist Sect’s powerful cultivators, although not daring to claim one hundred percent accuracy, this kind of sequence division would not have a large margin of error.
Among ten thousand people, there are only a hundred individuals in the First Sequence.
This would likely represent the top hundred cultivators as appraised by these powerful individuals after observing performances in the Seal Spirit Tower.
They will all have the opportunity to freely choose to join a Taoist Sect and become a core disciple.
In addition, they will receive a Middle-Grade Heavenly Artifact provided by Great Xia as a reward.
As for the Second Sequence, consisting of nine hundred individuals, along with the one hundred spots from the First Sequence, they represent the so-called top one thousand of the Seven Domains Grand Way.
They will all gain the qualification to cultivate in the Spirit Cleansing Pool for one year.
Of course, for those cultivators in the Third Sequence, just qualifying for the group elimination matches already places them in the top ten thousand of this Seven Domains Forum.
They will receive Spirit Crystal rewards subsequently and can choose to join any top-tier sect freely.
