Chapter 743: Chapter 746: Holy Land Battle Rules (Third Update)
The recruitment of Martial Artists by the Sacred ces is also a grand event in the Original World.
Although the recruitment of each individual Sacred ce is not as sensational as the Divine Punishment Star, the four Sacred ces recruit together every time, which is even more sensational than the Divine Punishment Star.
The longing for the Sacred ces among the Martial Artists of the Original World is very high, and every Martial Artist takes pride in joining a Sacred ce.
However, the number of Martial Artists who can get rmended is far fewerpared to the Divine Punishment Star. The entire Divine Punishment Star can allow billions of Martial Artists to enter, while the four Sacred cesbined only have a few million spots at most.
A few million people still have to be dispersed amongst the four Sacred ces, leaving only over a million spots for each Sacred ce.
Martial Artists who are rmended sign up one after another. The heat of the Divine Punishment Star has long passed, and people’s attention is now concentrated on the selection of Holy Land Warriors.
In order to ensure that the Martial Artists of their own country or race can smoothly enter the Sacred ce, each country has sent out their strongest Martial Artists.
They include Martial Artists from a hundred thousand years ago during the Divine Punishment Star, two hundred thousand years ago, and one million years ago…
People can often see some prominent figures in the list of registered participants.
*********<div>
As people eagerly anticipated, the registration for the Falling Star Lake Sacred ce came to an end, and the selection system was revealed.
“Honey, I’ll read it out to you.”
Although Ning Qingxuan had not fully recovered her memory, she had already formed a strong emotional bond with Lin Zhen. Lyingzily in Lin Zhen’s arms, her voice was a pleasure to listen to.
“Go ahead, I’m listening.” Lin Zhen had just finished his cultivation and was listening to Ning Qingxuan’s voice.
“The registration for the Falling Star Lake Sacred ce has been closed, and the number of participants is controlled at 104,8576.”
Lin Zhen interrupted Ning Qingxuan for a moment: “Do you know why they control the number of participants like this?”
Ning Qingxuan gave him a nce: “Do you think my IQ is very low? This number is double of two, perfect for eliminationpetitions.”
Lin Zhen nodded slightly, indicating for Ning Qingxuan to continue.
“Thepetition is divided into two stages, both elimination rounds. The first stage will eliminate the majority of the Martial Artists, leaving 1,024 who can be selected to join the Sacred ce.”
“The Sacred ce is divided into several levels, and the Stone Tablets are divided into eight levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, Yellow, Universe, Hong, and Huang. Thenes the second stage, where the remaining 1,024 people will start another elimination round. The first batch to be eliminated will be Huang ss students.”
“The remaining 512 people will be eliminated again, with 256 eliminated entering the Hong ss and the remaining 256 people continuing the elimination.”
“So on and so forth, with thest eight people entering the Heaven ss. There are eight students each in the Heaven and Earth sses.”
“Heaven ss students can choose toprehend any Stone Tablets, while Earth ss students cannotprehend Heaven ss Tablets. Xuan ss students cannotprehend Earth ss Tablets, and by the time it reaches the lowest Huang ss, they can only choose toprehend the lowest level Tablets.”
At this point, Lin Zhen asked, “Xuan’er, were the rules the same in the Sacred ce you were in when you were in Freedom City?”
“It’s almost the same, without much difference. If there is a difference, it’s that the number of people in Freedom City was more than this time, with 2,048 people being selected. Because there were more people registering there, the extra 1,024 people were all assigned to Huang ss, so the number of people in the Huang ss is extremelyrge.”
“What was the difference between the top eight in Heaven ss?”
“Not much difference. Although there are differences in strength among the Martial Artists, once the top eight is selected, the division of Sacred ce sses is determined. However, when it reallyes to the Heaven ss, there may be disputes among the students.”
“Oh, what else is there to fight for?” Lin Zhen asked, puzzled.
“Of course, it’s about fighting for the best position. Everyone’s position is fixed. If you are the top of Heaven ss, you will be in the best position. This not only symbolizes status, but also allows for a deeper understanding whenprehending the Tablets.”<div>
Lin Zhen nodded, now understanding the selection rules of the Sacred ce.
“What position did Xuan’er get back then?”
“I didn’t perform very well back then and only made it to the Universe ss, not even making it to the Yellow ss.”
Although Ning Qingxuan said she didn’t perform well, there was a hint of pride in her voice.<div>
It is indeed amazing. There are eight people in Heaven ss, eight in Earth ss, 16 in Xuan ss, 32 in Yellow ss, and 64 in Universe ss. In total, Ning Qingxuan was one of the top 128 Martial Artists in the Freedom City Sacred ce.
“What was your realm back then?”
“I was at the middle stage of the Longevity Realm and also had an Advanced Divine Body.”
Lin Zhen couldn’t help but be amazed that such strength barely made it to the top 128. He was now a Fifth-Level World King and didn’t know what results he could achieve.
This fight is not like the Divine Punishment Star. One could say that the Divine Punishment Star was filled with young people, all under ten thousand years old, so their strength had its limits.
But this time, there are countless old monsters, with people several million years old everywhere. Each one has a terrifying level of strength, and Lin Zhen can’t be sure if he can even make it into a Sacred ce. It would be extremely unjust if he were to be eliminated midway due to encountering a Three Flowers Warrior in thepetition.
Ning Qingxuan looked at the Dimensional Universe for a while and worriedly said, “Honey, the contestants are too strong this time. I saw some familiar names, and I’m worried you won’t be able to enter a Sacred ce.”
“Oh, are there many powerful fighters?”
“Yes, I just checked the participants from Nan Liang’s Holy Land Warriors, and surprisingly, the founder of our Qingye Sect is among them!”
“What? Your founder?”
“Yes, my master’s master, her name is Zhao Lihua, and the three Iron sisters you fought against are her disciples.”
“How old is she?”
“I’ve met her once when I was a child, and it is said that she is already over three hundred thousand years old. She has an Intermediate Divine Body and is in the Three Flowers Realm.”<div>
“Furthermore, I saw that there are several people from Da Liang, Zhou Country, Wei Kingdom, and other countries I know of who are not inferior to her. I even thought that these people were already dead, but it turns out that they are all participating this time.”
Lin Zhen shook his head slightly: “Entering the Longevity Realm ispletely different. Longevity has an infinite lifespan; as long as one does not die inbat with others, they basically won’t die. They’re just hiding somewhere in cultivation, cultivating for tens of thousands of years, andter generations naturally think they are dead, but it’s just not time for them to reappear yet.”
Ning Qingxuan nodded: “Yes, the highest pursuit of a martial artist is still the peak of martial arts. Being able to enter the Holy Land to cultivate is the dream and wish of countless martial artists, but for you, it seems a bit unfair; you have only been cultivating for just over a thousand years.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Zhen touched her little cheek with a smile: “It can’t be said to be unfair. If you’re afraid of being unfair, you shouldn’t have signed up; since I signed up, I’m not afraid of fighting.”
After that, Lin Zhen said: “The only thing I worry about is that I might not be assigned to a good ss; I might end up in the Huang ss. But do you know whether it is possible to move up from the Huang ss?”
“Oh, right, I haven’t read that part yet. When you enter the Huang ss, you’ll find that there are more people in the Huang ss than you can imagine because there are new students arriving every ten years, especially in the Huang ss, which may have thousands of people.”
“As everyone has only a hundred years to study andprehend in the Holy Land, in order to ensure that the number of Holy Land warriors does not be toorge, a majorpetition will be held every period of time. Those who rank low in their ss will be eliminated to the ss below, and those who rank low in the Huang ss will be directly expelled from the Holy Land. However, those who rank high can still upgrade to the previous ss.”
Hearing this, Lin Zhen’s eyes lit up: “That should be easy to handle. Even if my first results are not ideal, I can still enter the previous ss through the assessment. I believe that as long as I adapt for a while, I will stand out.”
“Mm! I believe in you!”
Gently cradling his lover’s pretty face, the two softly kissed.
**********
As the Holy Land selection drew nearer by the day, Lin Zhen’s cultivation became even more diligent.
Currently, Lin Zhen had reached the Fifth-Level World King, with a Star Power of 34 million.<div>
Over these years, he had umted enough Star Crystals to almost advance to the Sixth-Level World King.
In addition to the advancement of his realm, Lin Zhen’s internal world was constantly nourished by the Nurturing Pills, and the edge of his world was expanding continuously. The fifth evil star, Po Jun, on the Evil Star Chart, was also close to being lit up.
Furthermore, Lin Zhen’s ck Hole Beast had reached its growth stage, which had once again improved his overall strength, making it about one-third stronger than when he had just entered the World King Realm.
These days of hard work had allowed Lin Zhen to reach the peak of Fifth-Level, and Po Jun was about to be lit up.
However, Lin Zhen didn’t have time to attack these two realms now, as he had to prepare Divine Power Pills for himself.
ording to past experience, the Holy Land Selectionsts about a month.
Lin Zhen can only take Divine Power Pills once, and he must use them at the most critical moment.
“I have one chance to take the Divine Power Pills, one chance for the ck Hole Devour, and I have finally practiced the Three-in-One technique of Destructive God Thunder after many days of practice!”
“The single Destructive God Thunder is already powerful enough, and thebination of three will be my biggest trump card at present. The Destructive God Thunder must not be used unless absolutely necessary.”
“Fortunately, I now have the Sky-cutting Divine Sword and the Sword Ring, as well as the Sword Gang in my palm, which were acquired when Iprehended sword intent.”
“With these trump cards, I should be able to support myself in entering the Holy Land.”
Lin Zhen’s goal is not high at the moment; even if he only enters the Huang ss, he believes that he will stand out step by step.
“Beep beep beep~~!!”<div>
The Dimensional Universe rang, and Chris sent Lin Zhen a message.
“Master, your Holy Land Battle number has been released, 778122. ording to the battle rules, the battles will start between adjacent numbers, so your initial battles should be mainly against adjacent martial artists.”
“Great, find out who my first opponent is.”
Chris quickly looked up the information for Lin Zhen.
“From the Da Qin Empire’s Medicinal Materials Commerce Association, his name is Jiao Xi, and his rmender is… National Master Qian Tong.”
Lin Zhen was stunned for a moment, not expecting his first opponent to be from Da Qin.
“Master, please prepare; in three days, all contestants will go to Falling Star Lake, where the elimination round will be held.”
Lin Zhen nodded; the Holy Land battle was about to begin!
