Chapter 260: The Truth of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, the Holy Land (1)

“You want to know about the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?” Meng Bai looked at Zhou Shu in surprise.

“With your current status, you actually don’t need to participate in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.”

“I don’t see why not,” Zhou Shu said. “Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Since I’m a member of Great Xia, isn’t it normal for me to help Great Xia?”

Meng Bai laughed. “That makes sense.”

After laughing, he resumed a serious expression, “But you have to know that the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament is very dangerous. It’s inevitable that there will be casualties. Back then, I was seriously injured in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. If it weren’t for you, I would probably be dead by now.”

“General, do you think I will be in danger?” Zhou Shu smiled. It wasn’t that he was bragging, but even if he ran to the middle of a battlefield and came out again, he would probably be unharmed.

Meng Bai shook his head and said solemnly, “I know that you’re strong and not weaker than the Qin emperor. But even someone as strong as the Qin emperor doesn’t dare to take the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament lightly.

“The Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament isn’t as simple as you think.”

Meng Bai seemed to remember something, and his eyes flashed with fear.

Zhou Shu was a little surprised. Rumor had it that Meng Bai had been injured because he had been besieged by experts of the other nine nations during the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.

Now, it seemed that there was something else going on.

Experts of the other nine nations wouldn’t make Meng Bai feel frightened.

Meng Bai was Great Xia’s God of War. Over the years, he had fought many times with the armies of the nine nations.

“What secrets are there to the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament? Even if there’s danger, can it threaten me, a logistics personnel? I’m participating in the Martial Arts Tournament as a forger,” Zhou Shu asked curiously.

Meng Bai froze. He had almost forgotten this.

He subconsciously treated Zhou Shu as a combatant, mainly because Zhou Shu’s achievements were too impressive.

He had fought from Hangu Pass to Great Qin’s capital alone and defeated six first-rank experts of Great Qin. In the end, he had even fought the Qin emperor to a draw.

With such shocking strength, who would think that martial artist was only his secondary profession and that his true identity was actually a forger?

Meng Bai smiled bitterly in his heart. Geniuses are truly unreasonable.

Many people couldn’t reach the peak in their lives, but it was just a side job to him.

“If you’re participating as a forger, although it’s still dangerous, it’s manageable,” Meng Bai said.

“Forget it. You’ll have to hear about this sooner or later.

“Do you know the origins of the so-called Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?” Meng Bai asked solemnly.

“Isn’t it true that the founding emperors of the Ten Nations set up an alliance to prevent the land from suffering?” Zhou Shu asked.

“That’s just a rumor.” Meng Bai shook his head. “The truth of things is often not so beautiful.

“The reason the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament is held is not that the emperors of the ten nations are so benevolent.

“Look at the ten nations. Whether they are strong or weak, no one has ever initiated a war of national destruction. Do you think none of these monarchs want to unify the land?

“No. It’s not that they don’t want to, but they just can’t and don’t dare.”

“Is there something or someone above the ten nations that the emperors fear?” Zhou Shu asked.

“You could say that,” Meng-Bai said. “But this existence isn’t someone.

“The ten nations exist because the world needs the ten nations to exist. This matter is important, so the nations have always kept it a secret and not let the people know.

“On this land, there is a Demon Realm,” Meng Bai said with a solemn expression. “The Demon Realm has always wanted to invade the world we’re on. The Demon Realm is powerful and far beyond our ability to resist.

“The reason we can still exist now is that a senior expert forged the Ten Imperial Cauldrons and used the ten nations’ luck and terrain to form a seal to block the Demon Realm from the land.

“This is why the ten nations have always existed!

“In order to maintain the integrity of the seal, there must be the Ten Imperial Cauldrons. None of them can be missing!

“Therefore, even if there are disputes between the ten nations, no one dares to start a war of national destruction. Otherwise, if one of the Ten Imperial Cauldrons is missing, the seal will no longer be complete. At that time, the Demon Realm will be able to invade this world, and the ten nations will face a calamity!”

Meng Bai didn’t hold back because Zhou Shu’s current identity was qualified to know some secrets.

“Does the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament have something to do with this?” Zhou Shu asked.

He thought of Great Qin’s imperial cauldron. This imperial cauldron had almost shattered back then.

Fortunately, he had helped back then. Otherwise, the entire world would have suffered?

Did the other countries know that Great Qin’s imperial cauldron had been damaged?

Great Wei seemed to have discovered some clues, so they tested Great Qin. What about the other nations?

How did such a powerful divine artifact, the imperial cauldron, get damaged in the hands of the Qin emperor?

Zhou Shu pondered as Meng Bai continued.

“Ten Imperial Cauldrons formed a seal and sealed the land we were on, making it difficult for the Demon Realm to invade. But the Demon Realm’s desire to destroy us hasn’t died. Every ten years, their attacks on the seal reach a limit.

“At this point, if we ignore it, the Demon Realm will break the seal, and then they can march right in.

“Therefore, every ten years, the ten nations will join forces and use the Ten Imperial Cauldrons to open the seal. We will let in a portion of the people from the Demon Realm and destroy them! This way, the power of the Demon Realm to attack the seal will be consumed, and the seal formed by the Ten Imperial Cauldrons can be reinforced again and last for another ten years.”
