Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The competition rules were announced, and the rewards were clearly defined.

After a brief moment of silence, the entire plaza suddenly erupted.

Countless people began to discuss it.

Everyone was excited.

Even the onlookers felt that this was a blessing from the heavens, a gift bestowed upon the world's outstanding cultivators.

In this Pingnan County, the highest-level resource one could obtain was only a God-Rank Second Grade Advanced-level resource, a grade higher than God-Rank Second Grade Intermediate, but not a true Advanced resource. It could only correspond to the Great Celestial Realm cultivation, unable to break through to the Extreme Celestial Realm, and even reaching the Great Celestial Realm's perfection was difficult.

However, the Heaven-Bestowed Battle actually had so many God-Rank Second Grade High-level pills as rewards.

This meant that once one obtained these rewarded pills, they could use them to break through to the Extreme Celestial Realm.

The top three rewards of the competition were even more enticing, actually including God-Rank Second Grade Sub-Top-level Divine Pills!

If one could obtain a divine pill of this quality, they could use it to cultivate the Extreme Celestial Realm to perfection!

Such competition rewards made the major forces in the county almost go crazy with excitement.

The high-level members of the Ryusheng family breathed rapidly, their fists clenched tightly.

As long as they won the first place, then in the near future, their Ryusheng family would have several Extreme Celestial Realm perfected experts!

At that time, although they couldn't compare to the first-tier forces in the prefecture city, at least they could talk to them on equal footing.

By then, they would be the sole rulers in this county-level city!

The highest resource output in the county would be included in their pockets.

Once enough resources and wealth were accumulated, they could go to the state capital to find ways to purchase more sub-top-level resources and cultivate more True God Extreme Celestial Realm experts.

Now, they couldn't even go to the state capital to buy them. Firstly, the sale of those resources was very strict, and it would be difficult for people from these county towns to buy them, not to mention that even if they bought them, they wouldn't have the life to bring them back.

Many second-rate forces' high-level members in the county were secretly discussing something in twos and threes at this time.

Although they were only communicating with their divine senses, the exchange of glances between them was enough to show that they were exchanging information.

"Young Master, we must obtain the first place this time."

"Therefore, when you should go on stage and when you shouldn't, you must think carefully."

"Our biggest opponents, besides the Lin family and the Wu Sect, are also those second-tier forces."

"Look at their eyes, they are secretly flowing at this time, they must be discussing joining forces."

"Although our team is very strong, we must also prevent being targeted by others using the method of using the weak against the strong and the strong against the weak."

"Those who secretly form alliances may even reach an agreement to sacrifice one party's points to drag us down."

"Therefore, no matter what the situation, you must remain calm."

"The competition rewards are too tempting, and now the participating forces are already crazy in their hearts."

"The more this is the case, the more we need to deal with it calmly."

"I understand. What about the people from Apricot Blossom Village..."

The Ryusheng Young Master glanced at Hua Qi and the others in the distance.

"Apricot Blossom Village, I heard that there is a pure Emperor bloodline in this generation."

"It should be that young man."

"Otherwise, there is absolutely no possibility of winning the championship in Pingsha Ancient Town and obtaining the first place."

"The existence behind Mang Village has always wanted to cut off the pure Emperor bloodline of Apricot Blossom Village."

"I didn't expect that they would have another pure Emperor bloodline in this generation."

"If you have the opportunity to fight him on the duel stage, you must kill him and not give him a chance to admit defeat."

"Killing other people in Apricot Blossom Village, the existence behind Mang Village will relatively not care so much, but if you kill the pure Emperor bloodline, as long as the people behind Mang Village know, they will most likely send people to check."

"At that time, our Ryusheng family can attach ourselves to such a huge force."

"In the future, if we want to go to the state capital to purchase high-grade resources, we will also have someone to introduce and connect us."

"For our Ryusheng family, it is a great opportunity to move towards prosperity in the future, we must firmly grasp it in our hands and not miss it!"

"Don't worry, that pure Emperor bloodline of Apricot Blossom Village will definitely die if he meets me, even the Heavenly King Lao Tzu can't save his life!"

"Our Ryusheng family will not become a state-level overlord in the future, but at least it will become a prefecture-level overlord."

"When that day comes, what a glorious scene it will be..."

The Ryusheng Young Master began to look forward to the future, and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

There are two prerequisites to achieve the future vision.

The first is to kill the pure Emperor bloodline of Apricot Blossom Village in the duel, and the second is to obtain the top three in this county-level competition, preferably the first place!

The top three, with the strength of the participants of their Ryusheng family, is of course a certainty.

What they are fighting for is the first place!

There are two strong competitors, one is the Lin family, and the other is the Wu Sect.

Of course, there are also those second-rate forces in the county who have secretly formed alliances.

However, the allied second-rate forces only need to be careful not to fall for their tricks.

The competition site was noisy and chaotic.

Countless people were talking about it.

Jun Wuxie and the others were very calm, hardly saying anything.

They were just quietly waiting for noon to arrive, when the competition would officially begin.

As time passed, noon was getting closer and closer.

The sun gradually reached the center.

Different from the intense discussions of others.

Jun Wuxie's place had an extra table at some point.

At this time, they were all sitting at the table, with a pot of brewed tea steaming on it.

Jun Wuxie was tasting the tea that Jing Ya's secondary body personally brewed and poured.

"Master's Wife, what kind of tea is this? Why is it so fragrant?"

Hua Qi poured himself a cup, took a sip, and only felt that his mouth was full of fragrance, and the fragrance lasted for a long time, making people's divine sense perception clearer.

Jing Ya's secondary body did not respond to his question, but only told him not to drink too much, one cup was enough.

Hua Qing and Hua Hu also poured themselves a cup, and also praised it, calling it good tea, it was so magical, and had such an effect.

They were also told by Jing Ya's secondary body not to drink too much.

"How pretentious."

The people from the Ryusheng family and several other forces in the distance saw that they actually took out tables and chairs on the spot, and had the leisure to drink tea, with a calm and composed look, and couldn't help but sneer secretly.

As soon as the competition rewards came out, everyone was so excited, including themselves and others.

But the people from Apricot Blossom Village were actually pretending to be calm and profound, this comparison made it seem like they had never seen the world.

In fact, they knew that the people from Apricot Blossom Village were pretending.

Deliberately pretending to be different from others, in order to highlight their own specialness.

The Ryusheng Young Master and others couldn't help but sneer.

Thinking, let you pretend, when your points can't go up, or when you meet this young master, see if you can still pretend.

Who wouldn't pretend?

But they felt that they simply disdained pretending, it was kingly to face their inner heart directly.

Unlike the group of people from Apricot Blossom Village, who were obviously excited and excited in their hearts, but pretended to be calm, drinking tea on the spot, pretending to be like outsiders.

Dong—

A melodious bell, extremely loud, rang the official start of the Heaven-Bestowed Battle competition.

Above the Heaven-Bestowed Temple, a great clock of order floated, flowing with the light of order.

The bell echoed in the sky above the city for a long time, and gradually dissipated after a few breaths.

"The Heaven-Bestowed Battle Pingnan County-level competition officially begins."

The figure of the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao left the sky above the duel stage and stood on the top of the Heaven-Bestowed Temple, "Now, all participating forces can select participants to step onto the stage to challenge other participating forces."

The bustling arena returned to silence at this time, and apart from the sound of breathing, almost no other sound could be heard.

The competition has begun, and the wonderful scenes are about to come.

This is a duel between the most outstanding young people from all over the world.

Gathering the most outstanding group of people in a county to compete.

Such a grand occasion has never been seen since ancient times.

Everyone watching the excitement was full of expectations.

However, there was actually a cold scene for a while.

More than ten breaths of time passed, but no one stepped onto the stage to challenge others.

The participating forces from various towns would naturally not let their participants appear at this time.

Their strength was far inferior to the participants of these forces in the county.

Once they came on stage, they would inevitably become the target of public criticism, and be regarded by others as a tool person to brush points.

Those county-level second-tier forces who secretly formed alliances were all waiting for people from first-tier forces such as the Lin family and the Wu Sect to come on stage.

Who would be willing to go up first?

Although the person who came on stage had the right to choose who to challenge first, after they stepped down, their forces would most likely be targeted.

Unless they had absolute confidence to deal with anyone's challenge, otherwise the consequences would be worrying.

Jun Wuxie looked at the Wu Sect and the Lin family, and transmitted his divine sense to the Lin Patriarch and the Wu Sect Master, saying: "You select the strongest participants to come on stage and challenge the Ryusheng Family Master."

"Yes, Master."

The Lin Patriarch and the Wu Sect Master immediately discussed a few words.

In the end, they decided to let a disciple named Wu Xu from the Wu Sect's participants come on stage.

Wu Xu, a half-step True God Realm, is the strongest person among the younger generation of the Wu Sect.

Under the gaze of everyone, Wu Xu stepped onto the duel stage, and his eyes slowly swept over the participating forces under the stage.

The people of those forces lowered their heads slightly involuntarily when their eyes swept over them.

They were all afraid that Wu Xu would challenge them.

Everyone was a little nervous, and some people exclaimed.

I didn't expect it to be Wu Xu, that's the number one expert of the younger generation of the Wu Sect.

He actually came on stage first.

So, which force will Wu Xu challenge?

He is so strong, choose one at random, as long as you don't choose the Lin family or the Ryusheng family, it is a 100% absolute win rate.

Just when people were guessing who Wu Xu would choose to challenge, Wu Xu's sweeping gaze suddenly stopped.

People followed his gaze, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Wu Xu's gaze seemed to stay on the Ryusheng family?

Everyone was a little unsure if it was.

After all, it was his first time on stage, and neither the Lin family nor the Yanagi family had actively challenged him. There was no need for him to take risks. Wouldn't it be better to just choose a weaker force to challenge and get points?

However, the Yanagi family's high-level members' eyes gradually turned cold.

What's going on with that Wu Xu? He's actually staring at the Yanagi family here.

Could it be that as soon as he comes on stage, his first match will be to challenge the Yanagi family?

"Yanagi family, I, Wu Xu, challenge you!"

Wu Xu's voice echoed in the arena, full of momentum.

Instantly, the entire venue fell silent.

However, the silence didn't last long before it erupted into a boil.

People were shocked, not expecting that Wu Xu would actually challenge the Yanagi family.

The first one on stage, the first match is a clash of titans.

Everyone was looking forward to this battle, but at the same time, they were extremely puzzled by Wu Xu's choice.

After all, the competition uses a team points system.

"Bastard!"

The muscles on the faces of the Yanagi family's high-level members twitched slightly as they cursed inwardly.

What is Wu Men doing? They have already secured the top three. As long as they don't mess around, there will definitely be no suspense.

And their three forces only need to fight each other after entering the top four.

Who would have thought that the strongest disciple of Wu Men would challenge them first? Is he out of his mind?

Could it be that Wu Men and the Lin family have secretly formed an alliance to target their Yanagi family in order to seize the first place and split the rewards?

"It's very likely. Although the total number of Grade Two High-Level Divine Pills for second and third place is slightly more than the reward for first place, the total number of Grade Two Sub-Top Divine Pills is not as much as the reward for first place!"

Wu Men and the Lin family are secretly colluding, trying to harm my Yanagi family. It's extremely hateful!"

The Yanagi family's high-level members looked ugly, feeling the pressure.

"Father, let me go.

That Wu Xu is the number one expert of the younger generation of Wu Men."

The young master of the Yanagi family knew very well that if he didn't go and let other clansmen go, the chances of winning would be at most 40%, and the scales of victory would lean towards Wu Men.

Losing would mean being eliminated.

At that time, they would only have four participants left, while Wu Men would still be fully staffed and would have gained some points.

If he went, the chances of defeating Wu Xu would be at least 60% or more.

This would not only eliminate a strong competitor but also win a point for the family team.

"No, you can't go!"

The head of the Yanagi family flatly refused, saying: "Your combat talent is amazing. If you can watch the battle process of your competitors more, it will be of great help to you.

The Lin family and Wu Men are colluding to target us.

They want to harm my Yanagi family. It won't be that easy.

Since they are sending their strongest, Wu Xu, in the first match, then we will send our second strongest to fight.

Although the chances of winning are only 40% at most, it can consume a lot of Wu Xu's energy, making it impossible for him to recover to his peak in a short time.

Moreover, you can also take a good look at his moves.

After the first match, you immediately go on stage to challenge Wu Men.

The gap between Wu Men's second and you is not small. You should be able to defeat him easily without consuming much energy.

As long as you are on stage, the challenge mechanism prioritizes the participants on stage.

This means that as long as you initiate a challenge, no one else has priority to challenge you."

In this way, you can continuously challenge Wu Men and exhaust their people!

This requires strong strength and tenacious fighting will. Are you confident in yourself?"

The head of the Yanagi family secretly slipped a pill into his son's hand, "This pill can continuously release vitality, giving you more lasting combat endurance."

"Father, don't worry, I have this confidence!

Except for Wu Xu, I don't take the younger generation of Wu Men seriously."

The young master of the Yanagi family was full of confidence, his eyebrows filled with arrogance.

"Very good, whether my Yanagi family can reach glory in the future depends on you."

The head of the Yanagi family nodded in satisfaction.

He had a fair and beardless face, and his eyes were small and slender, giving people a gloomy feeling.

His son, the young master of the Yanagi family, inherited his genes and looked 70% similar to him.

"Yanagi Kai, you go in this match.

Even if you lose, you must try to consume Wu Xu's energy as much as possible, preferably seriously injure him.

The future of the family depends on you five. When the family reaches glory in the future, you will all be first-class meritorious officials."

After speaking, he also slipped a Qi-sustaining pill into Yanagi Kai's hand.

"Yanagi Kai is willing to be loyal to the family!"

Yanagi Kai hugged the sword in his arms and nodded sharply, looking like he was ready to die for his country.

"Go."

"Yes, Patriarch!"

Yanagi Kai turned sharply, rushed towards the duel stage with a few leaps, and landed on the stage.

"Wu Xu, Yanagi Kai is here to ask for guidance!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he drew his battle sword with a clang, held the hilt with both hands, stepped forward, and assumed a slanting horse stance, holding the battle sword vertically in front of him.

The Yanagi family's battle sword is quite special, very similar to a sword, three fingers wide, covered with patterns, the blade is relatively straight, and only slightly curves halfway up the blade, the blade is particularly sharp, shining coldly in the sun.
