Chapter 174: Continental Tournament for Hegemony Start

After Lou Mu Yan stepped into the Teleportation Array, a gentle light enveloped them. Their vision blackened, then after an unknown length of time, the several people landed onto another Teleportation Array. 

What entered the eye after exiting the Teleportation Array was an open ground. There were already many people gathered, but they all occupied a place to themselves, forming small groups. It could be seen that they were Sword Masters from different Kingdoms. 

“Let’s also go find a place to rest and wait.” Yun Zi Mo looked around, then pointed to an empty space and said.

“Alright!”

After the few people sat down, the five Teleportation Arrays in the assembly point kept flickering, then Sword Masters wearing different styles of clothing walked out in groups. 

“There sure are many people participating, and this is just one of the ten teleportation points.” Yun Lan roughly scanned the crowd within the assembly point and there were at least several thousand people based on a visual estimation. 

“This is a grand event of the entire Continent, so it’s understandable that so many people came.” Chi Yi Xuan said. 

Lou Mu Yan looked at the people who came out of the Teleportation Arrays, then shrugged helplessly, saying: “One more thing. Their cultivation bases aren’t low. I should be at the bottom again.”

The several people couldn’t help smiling when they heard her words. Yun Lan said: “Actually, your cultivation base is a type of cover. If anyone who doesn’t have eyes wants to bully you, they’d definitely kick an iron plate.”

After all, they all knew that although Lou Mu Yan was only Middle-Phase Sword King cultivation base, but she had the ability to challenge Sword Monarchs. 

“Not only is your cultivation base at the bottom, but our cultivation bases aren’t at all on the top in comparison either.” Yun Zi Mo’s indifferent eyes fluctuated a few times. 

Among the six, Yun Zi Mo had the highest cultivation base as he had just broken through to Sword Monarch cultivation base a month ago, followed by Lou Mu Bai and Fu Chen, both being Peak-Phase Sword King cultivation base. Yun Lan and Chi Yi Xuan had both advanced to Advanced-Phase Sword King, and only Lou Mu Yan remained at Middle-Phase Sword King. 

During the two months of her Seclusion, if she wasn’t comprehending the water attribute Law, then she was in the Blazing Mountain Range refining her Natal Magic Tool, so she simply had no time to cultivate. 

“No worries, we’ll be able to be ranked in the top hundred when we come out in a year’s time.” Lou Mu Yan said to the several people with a confident smile on her lips. 

The five people were also infected by her, and they all nodded in agreement. No matter what, they would work hard to enter the top hundred. 

Only after waiting at the assembly point for three days did the Teleportation Array gradually stop, and the number of people teleporting here grew sparce. After another two days, the Teleportation Arrays completely stopped operating. 

Suddenly, a vortex appeared in the sky above the assembly point and a transparent ball of light fell from it. The ball of light enveloped five people, including a middle-aged burly man that was their leader. 

As soon as the few people landed on the ground, the transparent ball of light that enveloped them disappeared automatically and the burly man swept the surroundings with a sharp gaze. Suddenly, the entire space was so quiet that even if a needle fell to the ground, one could hear it. 

The man withdrew his gaze in satisfaction and said slowly, “I am the person in charge of assembly point number eight. Next, I will issue an identity tablet. Please keep it well. If you lose it, you will be disqualified from the competition.”

After he finished speaking, he gestured with a wave to the four people behind him. The four of them took out an interspatial ring each and brought out several piles of different coloured jade tablets from it. 

Immediately following, the burly man took out a few pieces of jade slips. The five of them channelled their Elemental Energy into the jade slips, and the jade slips instantly flew into the air, landing above the pile of jade tablets. 

A few beams of light fell from the jade slip and those jade tablets spontaneously flew out in different directions. 

Finally, the jade tablets fell into the hands of everyone at the assembly point as if having recognised their owners. 

The burly man continued to speak after seeing that the jade tablets were distributed: “You each spray a breath of essence onto the jade tablet and check whether the words displayed on the jade tablets are your kingdom’s name and your own name. If there is a mistake, report it to us immediately.

Lou Mu Yan picked up the jade tablet and sprayed a breath of essence. Sure enough, the words ‘Yan’zhou Kingdom, Lou Mu Yan’ were instantly displayed on the smooth jade tablet. She had to sigh with amazement at the power of the organiser. 

Seeing that all the participant numbers were distributed correctly, the burly man said again: “I believe you all have a question inside—why the jade tablets in your hands have different colours.”

Lou Mu Yan’s group of six were all holding red-coloured jade tablets, while there were people holding jade tablets of various other colours at the assembly point. They all had questions inside. Why there were jade tablets of different colours distributed, Yun Cang didn’t say at all before they came. 

“As you all know, the rules for each Continental Tournament for Hegemony will change, and the biggest change this time is the colour of the jade tablets in your hands. 

“I think you all know that participating in the Continental Tournament for Hegemony means that you will all be sent to an independent space. The mission in the preliminary round is to kill Demonic Beasts in the space. The more you kill, the more likely you are to enter the second round. 

“The previous competitions were all based on quantity, and this time, the first round is still the same. 

“Then why do you have different coloured jade tablets in your hands? Well, that involves the second round of the competition. 

“The second round of the competition is a battle for jade tablets. People who hold tablets of the same colour cannot compete with each other within a specified time frame in the beginning. But they can snatch jade tablets from others with different colours. Regardless of life or death. Don’t think it strange. This is simply the law of survival on the path of the strong.

“By the way, let me remind you that there are seven colours of jade tablets in total. Red, yellow, blue, green, cyan, orange, purple. Those who are qualified to participate in the third round not only must have snatched the most jade tablets, but also have all seven colours. 

“Now I will give you a quarter of an hour to ask questions. If you have any questions, ask them quickly, then we will send you to the independent competition space.” The burly man added lightly. 

After he finished speaking, a person raised their hand in the open grounds and asked: “May I ask, Senior, when we’re competing for the qualification for the third round, is there a requirement for the number of jade tablets for each of the seven colours?”

“There must be ten purple jade tablets, thirty orange jade tablets, fifty cyan jade tablets, and there are no requirements for the jade tablets of other colours.” The burly man replied. 

“Does the colour of the jade tablets have any meaning?” Another person raised their hand and asked. 

“Of course. The colour represents the strength of each kingdom. People holding purple-coloured jade tablets represents that they are from a Superpower. Following this analogy, the people holding red-coloured jade tablets are from some small kingdom of no standing.”

Lou Mu Yan looked at the red-coloured jade tablet in her hand and the corner of her lips twitched. So it turned out that not only was her cultivation base at the bottom, but even the Kingdom she represented was at the bottom…

“Senior, could we only start snatching jade tablets in the second round?”

“The first round of the competition is three months. In the last ten days of the three months, you can start to snatch jade tablets. After all, there will be some people who will be eliminated because they didn’t kill enough Demonic Beasts. Before then, you are not allowed to snatch jade tablets indiscriminately, otherwise you will be disqualified from the competition. 

“Don’t take any chances. As long as you violate the rules, you will definitely be disqualified from the competition by the Organiser.”

Afterwards, a few more people asked some questions, then the burly man stopped answering when a quarter of an hour passed. 

“The jade tablet is not only a representation of your status, but all the rankings and information conveyed by the Organiser will also be displayed on the jade tablet. You need to pay attention to it at all times. 

“Finally, I would like to remind you all that after the first round of the competition, the top ten people who killed the most Demonic Beasts will also be rewarded with jade tablets. That is, the jade tablets from those who have been eliminated, but have yet to have their jade tablets snatched, would be recovered as rewards to give.”

After reminding them of the last point, the burly man raised his head and shot a cyan light towards a space not far away. 

In an instant, the space in that area fluctuated ceaselessly, then a huge stone gate fell. The cyan light shone brilliantly, and the gate made a few [RUMBLE] sounds, then gradually opened. 

“I announce that the gate of passage number eight for the Tian’ling Continent Tournament of Hegemony is officially open. You can enter in succession.”

 

Note: So me being me, I spent way too much time just trying to figure out how to translate 玉牌 (yù pái) which I eventually translated as ‘jade tablet’. I don’t know what you guys imagine, but if you copy and paste the Chinese characters into Google images or Bing etc, any should show the same results, those are basically what they are. They’re basically around the size of a credit card or potentially smaller, but thicker as it’s made from jade
