Chapter 870 Keep Your Distance
After all the monks landed in the secret realm, the host's voice pierced through the space and rang in everyone's ears, supplementing the rules of the second stage of the competition.
"You will spend fifteen days in the Nine Nether Demon Abyss Secret Realm."
"During this time, you can freely explore the entire secret realm and kill magical beasts of all levels."
"Warcraft is divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced."
"Low-level magical beasts, with strength equivalent to cultivators in the Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment stages. Magic beasts of this level have not yet developed their intelligence and often appear in groups. Hunting them is relatively easy, and each kill earns 50 to 100 points."
"Medium-level magical beasts correspond to the Jindan stage to the late Yuanying stage. This level of magical beast has already awakened its intelligence and formed a magic pill, making it quite difficult to kill. I suggest you team up. For each one you kill, you will receive a minimum of 1,000 points, up to a maximum of 5,000, depending on the quality of the magic pill."
"High-level magical beasts. Each one has a power level above the Nascent Soul level of a cultivator. Most of them have a half-human, half-beast form, and a few can transform into human form. They are extremely lethal. If you encounter one, it is recommended that you ensure your own safety before considering challenging it. Each beast is worth at least 10,000 points, with no upper limit."
"If your life is in danger, you can crush the teleportation talisman on your body and leave the secret realm. Once you choose to teleport, it means you automatically give up the competition and lose the opportunity to compete in the third round."
"Please manage your time wisely and hunt as much as possible to earn points."
"This stage will no longer be based on group points, but will instead use an individual points system. Only the sixty people with the highest points in this stage will advance to the third stage, climb the Ladder of Ten Thousand Tribulations, and compete for the top spot."
Ye Xiaoman nodded when she heard this.
From this level on, it is no longer a group battle, but each person relies on their own strength.
In the end, in order to compete for the only 60 places to pass the level, not only will the teams from the six realms engage in fierce competition, but there will also be competition within the human world.
It can be said that except for yourself, everyone around you is a potential opponent.
It can be imagined that in this level, the monks may not only be killed by powerful monsters, but also be stabbed and killed by their teammates.
I thought the host was going to talk about the first few rules, but unexpectedly the host cleared his throat and continued.
"Finally, two additional notes."
"The first rule is that the mirror will be closed at midnight every day and opened again at dawn."
Ye Xiaoman touched her chin. The video mirror was used for the six-realm live broadcast of this competition. That is to say, the live broadcast camera would be turned off after 11 o'clock in the evening and would not start again until 5 o'clock tomorrow morning.
This arrangement is quite humane. After all, no one can stand being stared at by a live camera every day. They always need some private space to eat, drink, defecate and urinate.
There are pros and cons. Turning off the live camera also means that under the scrutiny of the audience, those insidious tactics that are difficult to use openly can now be carried out in the cover of darkness.
"Second rule, don't get close to the Mobei area at the end of the secret realm."
Ye Xiaoman asked Sister Mei, the most knowledgeable member of the team, "Is there something special about this?"
Senior Sister Mei shared what she knew with everyone, "Oh, the Demon General Lu Qi is sealed away in Mobei. They probably told us this because they're worried about our lives."
Ye Xiaoman: “…”
Everyone was shocked after hearing this, and Xiao Chujing frowned.
Lu Qi, as the number one killer beside the demon god Jing Zhui, is known for his cruelty and brutality. Wherever he passes, there are thousands of miles of bones and no grass. Countless terrible rumors about him are circulating in the world. In the hearts of ordinary people, he is a devil, and they will feel weak in the knees when they hear his name.
Only Ye Xiaoman found it a little ridiculous.
Lu Qi had already escaped from prison, but the demons pretended to be serious and tried to conceal the news.
Lu Qi is still her colleague, and his lackey-like image in front of Jing Zhui makes it difficult for her to feel fear.
"Third, after the Transmission Mirror closes every day, strong men from all walks of life can apply to enter the secret realm and provide guidance to their talented people."
After the host announced the third rule, everyone immediately forgot the shock of the second rule and started whispering to each other.
"Previous competitions were all closed trials, but there were no similar regulations!"
"Yes, strong people from all walks of life can come in every night to guide the geniuses. But what if these people use tricks to secretly bring elixirs and magic weapons to their own people?"
"That's right. If we do that, wouldn't that break the rules of the first level?"
The cultivators in the human world were all very upset. After all, they had finally gained absolute advantage through alchemy and resource scavenging.
The person in charge was also puzzled when he read out this rule. This was an unprecedented new rule. It was said that it was strongly requested by some bigwigs, and the Demon Lord agreed to it because he had no choice.
The host soothed him, "This trial will also adhere to the bottom line of fairness and justice. All outside experts will be uniformly inspected before entering the secret realm. No outside elixirs, magic weapons, or other items will be allowed."
"All the processes of the geniuses slaying monsters and competing in the secret realm will be recorded in full, and all gains will be reported for secondary verification."
After hearing this, the monks felt relieved.
There are various restrictions, and the strong ones can only come in to instruct on how to fight monsters. You have teachers and I also have guests, and the help we all receive is the same, which has little impact on the game.
The corners of Ye Xiaoman's mouth twitched. She always felt that this rule might have been forced upon her by Yue Mushan or Jiaying, especially Jiaying. He wanted to find her and ask her clearly as soon as possible.
The sun gradually sets.
The live broadcast continues.
The location where the monks were teleported to in the human world was quite good. There were no high-level monsters around to harass them. The monks could rest on the spot and relieve the fatigue from not sleeping for a whole day during the first level.
The leaders of the three sects, Dadao Sect, Qingzheng Sect, and Tianxin Sect, walked aside to discuss matters, while the others rested on the spot.
Ye Xiaoman sat cross-legged on the yellow sand with an insulated cushion under her butt. She drank iced watermelon juice from a cup while squinting at Ya Xuening and Zuo Gao from the next team.
With "The Romantic History of Ye Ximan" still in her arms, Ye Xiaoman was thinking about negotiating with them after the live broadcast camera was turned off.
"Junior Sister."
Feeling a weight on his shoulders, Xiao Chujing sat down, holding the sword of life in his arms, his head resting on her shoulder, and closing his eyes to pretend to sleep.
Xiao Chujing had been refining pills for a whole day and had exhausted all his spiritual energy. Now he could finally sit down and rest.
Ye Xiaoman felt Xiao Chujing's straight nose rubbing against the side of her neck, as if he was looking for a comfortable pillow position. Her whole body froze. The live camera was still on, and all the men outside were watching. Don't be so intimate with her.
But she couldn't just push Xiao Chujing away, for fear that he would ask in front of the camera, "Wasn't it always like this before?"
She could only sit upright and act like Liu Xiahui. It was others who took the initiative to show affection to her. As an honest person who had never fallen in love, she only regarded Xiao Chujing as a brother.
