"Although the ancient battlefield has countless opportunities, it is also filled with dangers that you cannot imagine. Once you enter it, the consequences will be at your own risk."

The silver-haired man looked indifferent and continued, "The rules of the competition are very simple. A spiritual mark will be engraved on the palm of each contestant."

"The rules in the early stage are to hunt for other people's talisman marks. The way to seize them is to voluntarily give up the talisman marks or kill the opponent."

"Any contestant who can collect ten spiritual talisman marks will be eligible to enter the central area of ​​the ancient battlefield."

"There is a battle stage there, and all the qualified players will have a ranking battle."

Hearing this, everyone's faces showed surprise.

If all ten talisman marks were collected, the probability would directly eliminate nearly 90% of the contestants.

The elimination rate is extremely fierce!

Thinking of this, the expressions of most of the contestants present gradually became serious.

Especially those young talents from lower-level institutions felt discouraged.

Because in the end, they might not even be qualified to participate in the ranking battle!

"I have explained the rules, so let's start now."

The silver-haired man looked at the crowd below with a cold gaze and said calmly, "Everyone who is not involved, please leave immediately."

As soon as the voice fell, the instructors and masters of various academies immediately separated from the crowd and quickly left the square.

Then, the silver-haired man flicked his fingertips, and a beam of light instantly shot into the void.

Buzz——!

The next moment, the light pattern spread and condensed into an azure blue sphere in an oval shape.

The blue ball, shining with light, looked like a huge eye, looking down at the earth.

Faintly, there was an extremely obscure energy fluctuation emanating from it.

Lin Hao raised his head, his eyes slightly focused, and after just staring for a few breaths, he suddenly felt his heart and soul stirring.

The feeling was very strange. Under this kind of gaze, it seemed as if the soul was being pulled out.

Lin Hao was startled and quickly looked away.

At the same time, the spiritual power in his body was also circulating according to the method of Devouring the Stars, and his restless mind gradually calmed down.

"What a strange ball. I just took a few glances at it, but it can actually affect my soul."

Lin Hao couldn't help but be secretly surprised by this.

He then looked around and saw that Qin Yu, Lei Meng and other contestants beside him were in the same situation.

laugh--!

Just as everyone was shocked, the huge blue eye suddenly shone brightly and emitted rays of light.

In just a few breaths.

These lights actually split into countless tiny blue symbols, rushing towards the contestants in the square.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

It was extremely fast, like lightning. By the time everyone reacted, the blue symbol had already penetrated into their bodies.

"Is this the spiritual mark..."

Lin Hao's eyes darkened slightly. He stretched out his right hand, looked at the mysterious runes that appeared in his palm, and muttered to himself.

"Ding, it is detected that the host's body is being invaded by foreign objects. Do you want to clear it?"

At this moment, the system's voice suddenly sounded in my mind.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Hao clearly sensed that a vast system energy instantly enveloped the talisman mark.

Lin Hao only needs a thought to completely wipe it out.

If it is erased, won't it be impossible to enter the ancient secret realm?

In response to this, Lin Hao's mind was slightly moved, and he silently said: "No need."

In an instant, the system energy that originally wrapped the talisman mark suddenly dissipated.

Immediately, Lin Hao changed his mind and issued a new order, "If you find any signs of the talisman mark harming me, destroy it immediately!"

"Ding, following the host's instructions, the system has started 24-hour monitoring, consuming 10,000 Lingyang stones."

As the system voice sounded, the only 10,000 Lingyang Stones left in Lin Hao's storage ring disappeared instantly.

Realizing this, the muscles at the corners of Lin Hao's mouth twitched slightly.

Although the cost is a bit high, it is acceptable.

After all, this was spent with his own safety in mind, so it was well worth the money.

"Um?"

On the high platform, a hint of surprise flashed in the silver-haired man's eyes, and he glanced at the crowd below with confusion.

Because just now, he clearly noticed from the message conveyed by the blue ball that one of the talisman marks had lost contact.

But soon, everything returned to normal.

Although this situation is possible, it is only possible for strong people with extraordinary abilities.

How could it possibly exist for the current group of students in this institution!

"Who was it just now?"

The silver-haired man's eyes narrowed slightly, and after a quick glance, he looked away.

Because the energy in Lin Hao's system dissipated quickly just now, even if he sensed something, he couldn't tell which one it was.

In this regard, the silver-haired man had no choice but to give up.

Seeing that many contestants had already been inoculated with the talisman mark, he adjusted his mood slightly and said:

"The seal that was planted in your body just now is the spiritual seal. I have just explained the rules of it."

"There is another point about this seal. If you are coerced and voluntarily hand over the spiritual seal, you can be teleported out again."

"As for death, that's meaningless. The body won't be teleported out."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked a little stern. While they had serious expressions on their faces, they also secretly memorized this rule.

"If that's the case, then let's get started. Whatever opportunities we can obtain in the ancient battlefield will be our own destiny."

As the voice fell, the silver-haired man flicked his slender fingers, and another ray of light shot out again, directly towards the giant blue eye above the square.

“Buzz——!”

Instantly, the huge blue eye shook violently.

Immediately afterwards, extremely powerful energy fluctuations surged out wildly, gradually forming a giant energy vortex in the air!

And when the energy vortex condensed, the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth in the area suddenly became agitated and gathered continuously.

Lin Hao's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the giant whirlpool in surprise.

But at the end of the energy vortex, there was darkness, like a space passage leading to another world.

There is a faint sense of mystery that makes people's heart palpitate.

There is no doubt that this is the space entrance leading to the ancient battlefield.

Seeing this scene, the atmosphere instantly became lively.

"Is this the entrance? It leads to an ancient battlefield from ten thousand years ago!"

"Yes, we are so lucky!"

All of a sudden, all the young contestants had wild looks in their eyes and exclaimed in excitement.

They feel extremely lucky to be born in this era and to happen to encounter this year's Hundred Colleges Competition.

A series of fiery gazes stared at the huge vortex in the air, with great excitement.
