Chapter 748 The competition begins!
The day of the ring competition has finally arrived.
As expected by the Holy Land, an even larger crowd arrived the next day.
If we hadn't made preparations in advance, this competition would have been aborted before it even started because the venue would have been packed with people.
On the shore of Falling Star Lake, tens of thousands of arenas have been built.
It’s just that the arenas in other places are vast and sparsely populated, so not many people watch. Only some well-known martial artists have a certain popularity.
But no matter which arena, it cannot compare with Lin Zhen's.
The area closer to the arena has even been sold at a very high price. Many people came early to reserve a spot and even made a fortune.
The competition started at 9 am and it is already 8:30.
All contestants have arrived, ready to perform well in this highly anticipated event.
******** "Look! The people from Falling Star Lake are here, it's about to start!"
I saw a splash of water and white waves rising into the air on the lake in the distance, as if something huge had floated out of the water.
"Wow! It's the Holy Whale from Falling Star Lake!"
People looked over there and saw that under the splashes, there seemed to be a small island rising from the water, with the waves rolling and the part exposed above the water getting bigger and bigger.
This is a gigantic whale that is a thousand meters long, and its blue skin looks like a huge sapphire.
After the whale emerged from the water, the carriages in the sky were emptied, and one dragon and phoenix carriage after another arrived on the whale's back.
A group of holy land disciples in white placed tables and chairs for eating on the whale's back, and even laid out a large screen for the distinguished guests to watch.
These frames were all invited by the Holy Land to be viewed, and all the people who came were important figures.
"The Emperor of the Great Qin Empire, His Majesty Zhu Ziheng and the Empress have arrived!"
As the long sound of "no" was uttered, nine flying dragons pulled a cart and landed on the back of the whale.
The current Emperor Zhu Ziheng came down from the dragon carriage with his queen and kept waving to the cameras.
Emperor Zhu Ziheng was far less powerful than Qin Wushang was at that time. Although he was the emperor, most people in the Qin Dynasty did not think that Zhu Ziheng was the most honorable person in the Qin Dynasty.
This person could be the national teacher Qian Tong, the owner of Falling Star Lake, the president of a dimensional universe company, or the president of the first bank in the universe, but he definitely could not be Zhu Ziheng.
But no matter what, Zhu Ziheng is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, and he must still sit in the first seat on this occasion today.
The people of Daqin also applauded Zhu Ziheng.
"The living legend of the Qin Dynasty, the only Saint-level alchemist, the national teacher Qian Tongdao!"
There was another round of drums and music, and a huge crane flew from the sky, with an old man wearing an alchemist's robe sitting on it.
The person who came was the national teacher Qian Tong. Although Qian Tong's power was very great, he did not make any show. He was still very cautious and did not want others to talk about him. He flew over alone riding a crane.
Qian Tong landed on the back of the blue whale, laughed and saluted Zhu Ziheng, Zhu Ziheng also hurried over to support him, the two of them sat down and talked and laughed, the scene was very harmonious.
The Qin people gave Qian Tong even more enthusiastic applause than Zhu Ziheng. It can be said that Qian Tong represented the face of Qin to a large extent. Since the change of the Qin royal family, Qin had not much to show off. Qian Tong was definitely a business card of Qin.
His identity as a saint-level alchemist alone is enough to make other countries on the continent worship him.
After Qian Tong sat down, important figures arrived one after another.
For example, the vice president of the Dimension Universe Company, the vice president of the Dimension Arena, the vice president of the Universe's First Bank, as well as the more famous civil and military ministers of the Qin State, princes, people from the Galaxy Behemoth Alliance, people from the Alchemist Guild, people from the Equipment Refiner Guild, people from large sects and families, and business celebrities.
The number of people increased, and soon there were hundreds of people sitting on the back of the blue whale.
Lin Zhen even saw Long Geer and Saga among them.
Long Geer came here on behalf of the Alchemist Guild, and Saga is a member of the Galaxy Behemoth Alliance team.
After all these people arrived, a warrior in golden clothes appeared in the holy land.
In the holy land, servants wear green clothes, formal disciples wear white clothes, and those in gold clothes have different identities.
When the golden-robed warrior appeared, Qian Tong, Zhu Ziheng and others all stood up to show their respect.
This face is given to the owner of Falling Star Lake. Even if Zhu Ziheng is the Emperor of Qin, he still cannot be compared with the owner of Falling Star Lake. The owner of the four holy places, that status is absolutely unattainable. The golden-robed warrior is the disciple of the owner of Falling Star Lake, so of course he must be given enough face.
Other warriors, even those in the Heaven Class, can only be regarded as warriors from the Holy Land, not disciples of the master of Falling Star Lake. It is definitely not an easy task to become a disciple of this great god.
The golden-robed warrior was gentle and refined, with a strong scholarly air.
After he appeared, Zhu Ziheng and others said, "Hello, Fifth Young Master!" "Hello, Young Master Jinnuo!"
This man is the fifth disciple of the owner of Falling Star Lake, named Jinnuo. He usually presides over any activities in the holy land, so everyone is familiar with him.
"Hello, Your Majesty, hello everyone!" Jinnuo greeted Zhu Ziheng alone. As for the Imperial Master, he did not deliberately greet him, so that the emperor could be more prominent.
"The Holy Land selection begins today. Your Majesty and all of you will be here to bear witness and help the Holy Land select talents. Thank you for your hard work!"
"Hahaha! It's not hard at all! This is nothing. Please give my regards to your master. If the country is peaceful and the people are prosperous after I ascend the throne for a hundred years, I will lead all the civil and military officials to the Star Picking Island to pay homage in person!"
Jin Nuo nodded slightly, then called the blue-clothed servants of the Holy Land to take good care of the VIP, and then went to the head of the whale himself.
When Jinnuo stood still in the air, a huge column of water began to spray out from the whale's head!
The water column sprayed directly to a height of one thousand meters. Jing Lu stood on the top of the water column, like a god above the clouds, overlooking the ground below.
The sound seems not loud, but it can be clearly heard by everyone.
"The Holy Land recruits talents every ten years to enter the Falling Star Lake. The purpose is to improve the overall strength of the warriors, fight against the enemies in the endless sea of stars, and ensure the safety of our metaverse."
"If the Holy Land prospers, the Metaverse will be safe and sound, so the Holy Land must recruit only the best talents."
"The rules have been out for a long time, and everyone should be aware that the Holy Land selection will be conducted in an elimination format. Everyone will be automatically transferred to the competition venue to save time to the maximum extent. The Holy Land selection is expected to take three days."
"All the contestants below, please get ready. The staff has already delivered your amulets and number plates in advance. Put on your number plates and get ready to start."
All the contestants put on their amulets and wore their number plates.
The number plate is used for transmission. When the competition time comes, the number plate will be used to transmit to the ring immediately.
The amulet can be used one at a time. You can hold it in your hand or put it between your teeth. You can crush it or bite it at a critical moment to generate a shield that is enough to withstand the attack of a warrior at the peak of the Three Flowers Stage, or even the mental shock of a warrior at the peak of the Diamond Stage.
When all these things were ready, Jinnuo turned around and said to Zhu Ziheng: "Your Majesty, you can announce the start of the competition."
Zhu Ziheng nodded, stood up from the crowd, and said loudly to the camera: "I hope that everyone will demonstrate the spirit of fair competition, contribute to the prosperity of our Great Qin, and inject fresh blood into the Holy Land. I now declare that the competition begins!"
The roar of the salutes resounded through the sky. The scene was filled with flowers and people. The holy land selection was about to begin!
People began to get excited and shouted the names of their supporters loudly.
Soon, figures began to appear at each arena, and the competition officially began! The first round of eliminations took a long time, because there were a total of 10,000 arenas set up here, and the first round was to eliminate more than 500,000 people.
This means that each arena must have at least fifty matches before all the contestants in the first round are eliminated.
But it became easy after the first round. More than 250,000 people were eliminated in the second round, only more than 120,000 in the third round, and only more than 60,000 in the fourth round.
It becomes easier as you go on, and later on, even ten thousand arenas won’t be needed.
Every arena is protected by a huge energy shield. The warriors inside will never break the shield due to overly strong attacks and hurt the people outside.
Even people outside couldn't attack the warriors inside, so the competition was still very fair.
There are no restrictions in the arena, as long as you can win in it. The loser will either die in the battle or crush the amulet and exit.
If two people are both killed in a match, then their next opponent will be a bye.
The rules are simple, and the battles are fierce! Lin Zhen's ring is not just his exclusive one, it can also be used temporarily by others in the early stage, but all the matches about Lin Zhen will be held in this ring.
The fight between the pair competing in the ring now is also very intense, with the fight turning the world upside down. They are both immortal warriors, and it is hard not to imagine that the fight is intense as they are fighting against each other in the narrow ring.
But what people are more looking forward to is the showdown between Lin Zhen and Jiao Xi.
"Look! I see Jiaoxi!"
"Where is it?"
"Over there, over there, the one in white flying over with a sword!"
I saw a figure in the distance, with white clothes fluttering, stepping on a flying sword, flying slowly towards me at a very slow speed!
Jiao Xi had been planning for this appearance for a long time. Now he is very popular in Qin State. Everyone hopes that he can defeat Lin Zhen in the first game and give everyone a good vent.
Of course, Jiao Xi also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to show his face and make himself known.
So he designed such an appearance, a young man in white clothes flew in with a sword, defeated Qin's public enemy Lin Zhen, and then floated away. How many girls' hearts will be captured by this!
He originally wanted to come out after Lin Zhen, but Lin Zhen had not shown up for a long time, so he couldn't help it and came out first.
He came with fluttering clothes and a sword in hand! Countless people cheered for him. This moment was the peak of Jiao Xi's life! He was just a minor character in this chapter. The fifth senior brother of the Holy Land was the head of this book, Jinnuo Zhongge.
