Chapter 75: The Arena Competition Begins

Half a month passed quickly, and Ye Tian had been consolidating his cultivation during this period.

At the same time, he practiced all the techniques and martial arts in the Heavenly Fire Divine Art to thoroughly consolidate his foundation.

On the other hand, Lin Aochen also received help from the sect and reached his peak state.

And on this day, after Ye Tian woke up from his secluded state, he suddenly heard the graceful fairy calling him over.

"Ye Tian." The graceful fairy sat in the pavilion and waved at Ye Tian.

"Well, disciple greets the master."

Ye Tian said respectfully that Man Miao could now be said to be taking care of him in every possible way.

After he came out of the secret realm, he had a continuous supply of elixirs, all of which were top-grade elixirs accumulated by Fairy Manmiao over the years.

In addition, Fairy Manmiao also gave him some guidance on cultivation several times.

In short, this cheap master was extremely good to him, even more considerate and attentive than his parents.

"Ye Tian, ​​you have great talent and will definitely achieve something in the future. I hope you can get a good result in this selection of the top 100."

The fairy's tone was calm, yet it was encouraging.

After all, only the top ten people can enter the Dao Pavilion to practice, which gathers the essence of the entire Three Thousand Dao States.

Those elders were all once famous figures, and each of them had his own understanding of martial arts.

"Don't worry, let alone first place, we will definitely be in the top ten."

Ye Tian patted his chest and assured, his face full of confidence.

"Oh? Then you must work hard to get the position. If you are rejected, I will not forgive you..."

The graceful fairy smiled coquettishly, but with a hint of teasing in her tone.

"Uh, I'll try my best..." Ye Tian said with a dry cough.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I saw that your ground soldier was damaged earlier. This is for you."

As she spoke, the graceful fairy raised her jade hand and threw a long sword with fire attribute over.

Ye Tian grabbed the sword and after taking a look at it, he discovered that the material of the sword was extraordinary and it was actually made of Fire Spirit Black Iron.

This kind of material is extremely difficult to obtain, and even hard to come by. I guess she must have spent a lot of effort to get it, right?

"Thank you, Master!" Ye Tian said gratefully and put away the sword.

Regardless, this sword is still quite valuable to him.

The most important thing is that it is of the same origin as the Fiery Sun Sword, so it might have miraculous effects.

The graceful fairy waved her hands and said, "This is the reward you deserve. You must cherish it."

After saying that, she gave Ye Tian a few more instructions and then left the pavilion.

After she left, Ye Tian chatted with Lin Aochen for a few more words before saying goodbye and returning to his residence, waiting for the competition to begin tomorrow.

However, as soon as he arrived at his residence, he suddenly stopped.

Then he turned his head sharply and looked towards the dense forest on the left.

"Since you're here, why are you sneaking around? Aren't you ashamed?"

As soon as the words fell, a dark shadow walked out of the woods.

It was Xiao Shisan.

"It's you?" Ye Tian frowned slightly, looking a little surprised.

"I, I just came to say thank you."

After Xiao Shisan finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared on the spot.

Ye Tian curled his lips and thought to himself, these powerful people are really stingy. They didn't even bring gifts to thank him. What kind of gratitude is this?

Immediately, he turned back to his room, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to practice.

This night, everything went peacefully.

The next day, the morning breeze blew and everything was quiet.

The square of the Taoist Pavilion was already filled with densely packed disciples.

Today is the day for the top one hundred disciples in the secret realm to compete. According to convention, this year's ranking will still be determined by the top ten.

So, today is a big day.

Especially those disciples who are ranked lower, if they can squeeze into the top ten, they will be able to receive rich rewards and perhaps directly step into the Tianjiao sequence.

Although there are too many factors to consider in order to become a strong person, it is also an opportunity in the end.

Ye Tian followed the Taiyi Holy Land team to the venue, looking at the crowds of people around him with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Haha, these guys are so excited, aren't they all expecting to be in the top ten?"

The graceful fairy chuckled and said.

Ye Tian glanced at him, shook his head and said nothing.

"Haha, little guy, are you doubting my judgment?"

The graceful fairy seemed to notice the change in his expression and said with a contemptuous smile.

"I dare not. I am just doubting Master's judgment. There is no powerful character among these people."

Ye Tian quickly bowed and said.

"Really? Then I want to know, if you were to go on stage, who do you think would be your opponent?"

The graceful fairy asked with interest.

"Me? Hehe..."

Ye Tian smiled calmly, a glimmer of confidence in his eyes, and then said.

“No one is my match.”

After hearing Ye Tian’s words, the graceful fairy was stunned at first, then smiled and shook her head.

"Are you bragging?"

Ye Tian shrugged and said, "I'm not bragging, it's the truth!"

At this moment, Ye Tian exuded a domineering aura that made people dare not look directly at him.

"Haha, you are quite arrogant." The graceful fairy laughed.

As the two were talking, there was suddenly a loud noise.

Ye Tian turned his head and saw that people from other holy places and their disciples had arrived at the venue.

There were several familiar faces among them, including Wang Daoxuan, Xiao Shisan, Nangong Yan, Shen Han, Chu Qingmeng and others.

Behind them were naturally the elders or disciples of the holy land.

But in his eyes, these were the only ones who could fight him. The others? Haha, they were no match for him.

…

"Everyone! You all know the situation in the secret realm. For some time to come, the Dao Pavilion's meetings will not be held in the secret realm, so you must seize the opportunity this time."

In the void, an old man spoke loudly.

"Yes." Many disciples shouted in unison.

Then, the elder spoke again: "This competition is divided into three stages: preliminary round, semi-final and final. The champions of each stage will receive rewards. The top ten disciples in the final will enter the Dao Pavilion for retreat and cultivation.

I hereby announce that the grouping draw will begin today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the square suddenly became lively, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the stone pillar next to the arena.

The stone pillar is about several feet tall, completely black with a faint black glow.

At this time, a large pile of stone boxes had been piled up in front of the stone pillar, and inside them were exactly one hundred serial numbers.

As long as you draw a pair, you will become the two sides of the battle, and then you will compete with each other. The winner will advance to the next level and the loser will be eliminated.

Ye Tian walked to the bottom of the arena, looked straight at the black stone pillar, and stretched out his right hand.

There was a series of flashes of white light, and soon, a set of numbers appeared on each stone pillar.

After taking a glance, Ye Tian took out a jade slip without hesitation and recorded the number in his hand.
