Elder Tanaka's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Holy crap!
Elder Tian flew directly to Liu Shenjun and the others, and took over the control of the flying sword for Liu Shenjun, who had entered a state of enlightenment.
No? Is this your first time using the Sword Control Technique?
How come he suddenly understood it just by lowering his head?
Holy crap! Is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?
Why can't I figure anything out even when I look down?
And so, amidst Elder Tian's internal complaints, they flew all the way into the Central Plains Military Region and arrived at their final destination.
"Since everyone isn't here yet, you can wander around the area. There are soldiers guarding the restricted zone, so don't enter without permission."
The commander of the Central Plains Military Region handed the identity cards to Elder Tanaka and his group. Their identity cards indicated that they were from the Heavenly Sword Sect. Some were contestants, and some were accompanying elders.
There were no spectators at this competition; the commentary was provided by elders from various sects, and the scores were given by military leaders.
After all, their Dragon Kingdom has been in a state of constant war for years, so there are very few public competitions that are just for show. Fame not only puts a lot of pressure on those geniuses, but may also lead to accidental death, causing the common people to lose confidence in them.
Therefore, they hold internal competitions like the Central Plains Grand Tournament every five years.
Based on the performance of the previous generation of the Three Extremes Dao Sect, their current generation of Dao Sansheng should be the dominant force among golden geniuses aged 25 to 40.
After all, Dao Sansheng already had the strength of a late-stage six-star in the previous competition, and he was only 34 years old at that time. Now, five years have passed, and he should have passed the seven-star level by now.
Hey bro, do you guys have an inside list?
Liu Shenjun actually went outside the hall and went directly to ask the military region staff!
The staff member's lips twitched. Seriously? Dude, are you being really that blunt?
"Ahem, my friend from the Heavenly Sword Sect, if you wish to view the list of participants, you can go to the Military Command to obtain the Grand Competition Handbook. It is open to all sects. This way."
Guided by the staff, Liu Shenjun also looked at the not-so-long queue.
After queuing for a while, Liu Shenjun also came out with the competition manual.
"There's nothing much here, it's just a list of which sects are participating."
The Three Extremes Daoist Sect... the Pure Heart Sect... the Iron Chain Sect... the Crimson Dragon Society...
Liu Shenjun scratched his head. The Central Continent Grand Competition Handbook only introduced the participating sects, but didn't mention the contestants!
With this question in mind, Liu Shenjun returned to find the list booklet that Xiao Dai had prepared for him.
"Holy crap? Where did you get this, Xiao Dai?"
Near the Military Command, some sects that came to broaden their horizons also knew their own capabilities.
Therefore, he hasn't been preparing for the competition these days, but instead has been collecting information on the talented players from various sects.
Here's the list of contestants aged 25 to 40, and that's the list of contestants under 25.
"My little Dai! I love you to death."
Hehe, Liu Shenjun was also looking through the information on it. After all, he had even boasted that he would first scout out the enemy's strengths and weaknesses for Chu Tianci and the others.
"Dao Sansheng of the Three Extremes Dao Sect is powerful, suspected to be in the mid-stage of the Seven Stars. He is a holy son of the Dao Sect. His Three Pure Ones Wonderful Method made the previous champion, Huang Bucheng, suffer greatly. If it weren't for the fact that his cultivation level was lower than Huang Bucheng's, he would have won the championship five years ago."
Wow... this kid's got some skills."
Liu Shenjun nodded. According to the above, those under 25 years old are in one category, used to see the future genius disciples of various sects, while those up to 40 years old are in another category. In fact, most people only have three chances to participate. If someone happens to be 25 years old, they can participate once every five years and can actually participate a fourth time.
The previous champion, Huang Bucheng, was just like that.
Of course, this is a trick, so everyone assumed that Dao Sansheng was the uncrowned king of the previous session.
He'll definitely win this year, barring any major surprises.
em...
Liu Shenjun thought for a moment and wondered if his situation was considered a major accident.
"Dan Zixu of the Qingxin Sect, a peak six-star cultivator, is 38 years old..."
Jin Yunlie of the Iron Chain Sect, early stage of the Seven Stars realm, 39 years old...
Yan Zhicheng of the Crimson Dragon Society, a peak six-star, 38 years old...
Lei Xu of the Wind and Thunder Sect, early stage of Seven Stars, 40 years old...
In comparison, Chu Tianci of the Heavenly Sword Sect is actually not that low in cultivation level.
"At least our Heavenly Sword Sect is a first-class power. Although it can't compare to the top-ranking Three Extremes Dao Sect, it's still second place and can compete with other sects."
Looking at the list, Chu Tianci couldn't help but feel a deep sense of emotion. In the past, after their Heavenly Sword Sect came here, they never went out and didn't know who their opponents were. They only found out about their opponents' origins during the competition.
I never imagined that there were minor sects selling information about these experts.
"How did I end up in tenth place?"
Chu Tianci looked at his own introduction: Chu Tianci from the Heavenly Sword Sect, peak six-star, 40 years old.
Hey... that's a bit beneath me. Others are already at the peak of six stars at 38, and at 39 and 40 they're already at the early stage of seven stars, while I'm still stuck at this stage.
No wonder my ranking is so low.
"Relax, Junior Brother Divine Lord. You're younger than me, and only twenty-two years old. Just go and participate in the new generation competition. Before Master left, he told me that with your strength, you'll definitely stand out from the crowd, so don't worry about it~"
Liu Shenjun: ?
