Chapter 828: The Terrifying Elimination Rate
Elder Skywalker stood on the platform, and after a brief commotion among the participants below, he continued to speak. The grand and vast martial arena seemed to carry his voice to the ears of every candidate.
The cultivation of these individuals was truly unfathomable!
“The Mirror of Trials is a treasure left behind by a senior expert from the Kunlun sect. It is now laid beneath this martial arena.
The Mirror of Trials is a world of its own, filled with abundant spiritual energy and even inhabited by spirit beasts and monsters, along with heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
In this selection tournament, you will enter the Mirror of Trials and compete, fight, and seek opportunities.
As long as you have enough strength and good fortune, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures, as well as all the opportunities within the Mirror of Trials, can be yours.
Of course, it goes without saying that there are dangers involved.
The fact that all of you, at such a young age, have already grasped the embryonic form of the Laws of Heaven’s Path and reached the Nascent Soul Realm, shows that you are all rare geniuses in cultivation.
However, here, you may encounter competitors even more talented than yourselves.”
“Alright! Now let’s talk about the specific rules of this Star Path Seed Selection Tournament!”
“In this tournament, there are a total of 1, 986 participants! In the end, only ten will be chosen as the Seed of the Star Path!”
“The duration is three months!”
“If, within three months, the number of participants in the Mirror of Trials is reduced to the final ten, the selection tournament will end directly, and the remaining ten will automatically become the Seed of the Star Path.”
“If, after the three-month period, there are more than ten participants inside the Mirror of Trials, the ten individuals with the most Boundary Talismans in their possession will become the Seed of the Star Path!”
“The rules are simple! The opportunity is rare. I hope all of you seize it and exercise utmost caution!”
As Elder Skywalker’s voice fell, the martial arena erupted in a clamor.
“Indeed, there are almost two thousand people!”
Lachlan licked his lips.
Many people also wore solemn expressions.
“1, 986 people, and only ten will be chosen as the Seed of the Star Path?”
“The competition is too fierce!”
“1, 976 people will be eliminated!”
“It’s too cruel!”
“I seem to have already seen the intensity of this competition.”
At this moment, Elder Skywalker continued, “Did all of you receive a Boundary Talisman before? You will enter the Mirror of Trials soon.
Inside the space of the Mirror of Trials, your task is to seize the Boundary Talismans of others as much as possible. If you encounter life-threatening situations, you can discard your Boundary Talisman, and the Mirror of Trials will automatically reject you, perhaps allowing you to save your life.”
His words sparked discussions among the participants in the martial arena.
“That’s good! If things go wrong, we can still give up. We won’t lose our lives, right?”
“Not lose our lives? Life and death are decided in an instant when experts clash. Are you sure you’ll have time to give up the Boundary Talisman then?”
“If you’re afraid, why not discard the Boundary Talisman now? Hahaha…”
“Regardless, we’ve come this far. There’s no reason to retreat, right?”
The participants exchanged words with each other.
However, no one chose to give up.
After all, before coming here, everyone had already anticipated that this competition would be fierce.
Becoming a target of cultivation for the Orderwardens was by no means easy.
At this moment, Lachlan couldn’t help but squeeze the White Symbol Seals, which had a jade-like texture, in his hand. These White Symbol Seals had been distributed to each person before they entered the martial arena.
Originally, this is the Boundary Talisman to enter the Mirror of Trials.
If killed or voluntarily abandoned, one would be expelled from the Mirror of Trials.
“I must survive and continue!”
“To become that one-tenth!”
Lachlan thought to himself, his gaze firm.
At this moment, Elder Skywalker continued explaining the rules of the gathering.
After entering the Mirror of Trials, participants were not allowed to use any treasures, Divine Weapons, talismans, or any external objects. They could only rely on their own strength to compete and fight.
Otherwise, they would be directly ejected from the Mirror of Trials, losing the qualification to become a Seed of the Star Path.
After all, what the Orderwarden Organization wanted to see was not the treasures or Divine Weapons on these participants, but their own qualifications and potential.
Considering the habits of some participants using certain weapons, the Kunlun Divine Mountains had placed hundreds of weapon racks in the martial arena.
On them were various types of weapons.
However, these weapons had the same materials, strength, and resilience. They were all capable of withstanding the true qi infusion of Nascent Soul experts.
To ensure absolute fairness!
“Alright! Those who need to take a weapon can choose one for themselves.”
“After the duration of an incense stick, the Mirror of Trials will begin.”
After announcing all the matters, Elder Skywalker exclaimed loudly.
As his words fell, the majority of the participants in the martial arena headed towards the nearest weapon racks, selecting weapons suitable for themselves.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
At this time, Lachlan turned to Wynne and the other two and said, “Wynne, Sylvester, Erasmus, after entering the Mirror of Trials, it’s likely that each participant will appear in a random location.
The four of us probably won’t be together.
Don’t take it lightly, and seize the Boundary Talisman while ensuring your own safety.
If necessary, abandon it decisively, understand?”
“Lachlan, you too! Safety first,” Sylvester nodded and said.
“Yes, Lachlan, you are the hope of the sect! It would be best to be selected as a Seed of the Star Path, but don’t force it either!” Erasmus added.
“Yeah yeah! I agree with that,” Wynne nodded earnestly.
“I have my own measure. I won’t joke around with my own life, don’t worry!” Lachlan smiled and patted the shoulders of the three people. “Go on, choose a weapon that suits you.”
The three nodded and walked towards the weapon racks.
“Lachlan!”
Just then, a pleasant voice with a hint of complexity and worry sounded.
Lachlan turned his head and saw Savannah walking over with a serious expression.
“Do you really… not intend to give up?
Once you encounter Chase and the Tian Shan Sect, or even disciples from our Hudpids Sect, they won’t spare you.
You…”
Savannah bit her lip.
Although Lachlan kept saying it wasn’t for her, in Savannah’s eyes, it was because of her that Lachlan had a falling out with Chase.
“Enough, those four words don’t exist in my dictionary when facing the enemy.
Miss Graham, take care of yourself,” Lachlan waved his hand, his tone resolute.
Seeing this, Savannah sighed helplessly and didn’t say anything further.
Meanwhile, Lachlan stood there without moving.
Although he had been using the Glacial River Dragon Sparrow Blade before, Lachlan didn’t actually have a strong need for weapons!
The weapons provided by the Kunlun Divine Mountains probably couldn’t match the strength of his own Myriad Forms physical body.
Using them was inferior to relying on his own fists and feet.
His body was the best weapon.
