C54 Trial Rules
Nie Zhen and the other thousand plus people, after more than ten days of travel, finally arrived at the periphery of the Yutang City.
Although the majority of the team members were young, and all of the young people liked to move, their every word and action, after all, represented the image of their Chisong Prefecture. So, even though there were many areas of curiosity along the way, nothing big had happened.
Yutang City, the capital city of Yutang Country. Just the scale of the city itself was more than ten times larger than the Chisong City, and the height of the city walls was at least twice as tall as the Chisong City. As for the facilities of the city itself, they were incomparably glorious, opening the horizons of the people who came from these prefectures.
Other than the areas directly under the imperial family, the Yutang Country was also divided into four kingdoms. Other than the Chisong Prefecture that Nie Zhen was born in, there were also the Withering Bloom Continent, Cloudsoar Continent, and the Jinfeng Prefecture.
When Chisong Prefecture and the rest arrived at the outskirts of the Yutang City, they saw many camps. The orderly places were situated at the outskirts of the city, and these places were naturally specially constructed to receive cultivators from all over the place.
The Trial Convention's start date had long been set, and after Nie Zhen and the rest entered the camp, on the morning of the third day, it was the day the Trial Convention was to be held.
The Trial Convention this time around was extremely large. The five great regions had gathered a total of five thousand cultivators, divided into five camps outside the city, and waited for the host sent by Duobao Sect to announce the rules of the competition.
Before long, a green robed elderly man appeared. Behind him were a hundred or so people, and they were riding horses over, he was the host of the Duobao Sect mission, a person who was in charge of the Trial Convention.
"All cultivators that have come from far away, I have the honour to preside over this session of Trial Convention. I believe that all of you should have long known of the victory reward of this session's Trial Convention, so I won't speak any further here. Next, all of you should first receive your respective Jade Token s before I announce the rules of the Trial Convention." The old man in cyan didn't waste a word of words. Under everyone's gaze, he had an unfathomable appearance. Although he didn't introduce himself, he spoke very straightforwardly.
Nie Zhen could feel that this old man's strength was around the seventh stage of the Earth Stage. He should be a disciple sent by the Duobao Sect, so his position would naturally fall short of the Deputy Officer Cui who took care of him before.
However, even though the person who appeared was this old man, Nie Zhen knew clearly in his heart that with the degree of importance Duobao Sect, most of the legendary officials from the Duobao Sect, including Deputy Officer Cui and the rest, would personally take charge of this Trial Convention. It's just that they did not appear.
After the old man in green on the stage finished speaking, the hundred disciples behind him each carried a wooden tray with two stacks of Jade Token piled up on top of it. They then gave each Jade Token to the trial challengers below in an orderly manner.
Nie Zhen looked at the Jade Token in his hands. On the front, there was a red number "5", and on the back, there was a blue number "29".
The efficiency of the hundred people was very high. In a short while, all of them had Jade Token s with numbers written on them.
"Alright, I believe everyone is looking at the Jade Token in your hands. Then, I'll announce the rules of the trial." The host's face was expressionless. Seeing that the Jade Token was distributed to everyone, he immediately announced the rules of the trial.
The higher the total score you get, the higher your ranking will be. When the trial starts, we will divide into fifty areas, and each area will have a hundred participants. The red numbers on the front of your Jade Token will represent your area, and among these fifty areas, we will directly teleport you there through the Transmission Formation. "
The Transmission Formation was a miraculous method used by some experts to teleport some people to another place through an array. This was not much of a big deal to the three great sects, but to the people born in Subordinate Country, it was something that they had never seen before.
Nie Zhen did not feel that it was strange, because in his previous life, he had already seen Transmission Formation, so he guessed that the Transmission Formation here was about the same. At this time, he looked at the Jade Token in his hands again, saying that he was in the fifth region.
At this time, the host spoke again: "Every region has a hundred people, and in every region, we distribute a hundred Jade Token that have the same number of Jade Token as yours. If you can find this Jade Token, it would be worth thirty points, but to others, it would only be worth two points. In addition, in the region, if you can find someone whose number is equal to one hundred and one, the Jade Token in his hand and the other Jade Token in the region would be worth twenty points to you.
After all, everyone's comprehension ability is different, and the host had obviously thought of this as well. He continued, for example, "For example, if the number in my hand is 11, then after I enter this area, I will first have to find the number 11 Jade Token, then find the opponent with the number 90, and obtain the two numbers 90, then I will get a total of 30 points plus 2 points, which is 70 points. For other numbers, Jade Token are worth 2 points to me."
With the host's example, everyone understood. In order for their points to increase, they had to find someone else to duel with.
On the surface, it looked as if he just needed to find an opponent, but in truth, ordinary people would not know what number the Jade Token his opponent was holding, who knew if the opponent would lie to him? Furthermore, during the later stages of the trial, even two points of Jade Token would be good. At that time, it would probably cause endless fighting.
Thinking of this, everyone seemed to have discussed it beforehand. Almost at the same time, everyone stuffed the Jade Token in their hands into their pockets, because the Jade Token were not distributed in an orderly manner. No one knew whether the people around them would be their opponent next.
"Next, I announce that the second important point of this rule is to cross regions." The host paused for a moment, and then continued: "The crossing rule is that once you have eighty points, you will be able to apply to cross. As long as you send a wisp of your spirit sense into your own Jade Token, the array formation inside the Jade Token will automatically help you transfer it to the outside world.
"However..." At this time, the host said, "However, if you are unable to reach the 80 point mark and teleport yourselves out, then we will assume that you have chosen to forfeit. Not only will your points become invalid, you will also lose the right to continue with the trial."
"The training process will last for a month. If anyone asks themselves if they can't endure for another month, they can also be eliminated by this method. Of course, if you lose your Jade Token and you don't die, it will automatically send you out because the Jade Token has lost your consciousness."
"Finally …" At this time, the host's eyes became three times sharper: "Let me tell everyone here, during the trial, regardless of life or death, you are responsible for only your own life, whether you are born rich or poor, treat them as equals, as long as you have strength, it doesn't matter even if you kill all the other participants. If you are weak, no matter how noble your birth is, no one can be your backer during the trial."
Pure power was revered, a philosophy filled with bloodshed and violence. The victor was the king, the loser was the thief. It was simple and straightforward, but common in both ancient and modern times.
"There's no need to speak anymore!" Whether it is a dragon or a mouse depends on your own good fortune! Transmission Formation, activate! " After the host said this, he waved his hand and a gigantic Transmission Formation appeared behind him.
The Transmission Formation was entirely purple, with rays of light shooting up into the clouds, and around the array, appeared a dense amount of incomprehensible runes.
"This Transmission Formation is not simple at all. It can actually teleport five thousand people to different areas with just a single array formation …" Although he had seen Transmission Formation in his previous life, Nie Zhen still couldn't help but praise it in his heart.2
Nie Zhen's attitude was the calmest among the five thousand people because he had seen it before. But the shock that others felt was completely different. Many people just stood there with their mouths slightly open, not even knowing how to spit.
"The auspicious hour has arrived. Why aren't you rushing to the exam site? What are you waiting for!" Seeing that no one was moving, the host immediately shouted in a low voice.
His shout contained his own soul force, all the trial-takers who were originally shocked by the Transmission Formation were jolted back to their senses. Hearing the orders from the host, all of them acknowledged it and rushed towards the Transmission Formation anxiously.
Although Trial Convention was not something that was worth whoever it was first, a person's nature was to be the first to get the upper hand in speed. Moreover, if one was a step ahead, perhaps they would be able to find the Jade Token that they were looking for first.
In comparison, Nie Zhen was neither hurried nor slow, and slowly walked towards the Transmission Formation. The moment he came into contact with the Transmission Formation, his body was enveloped in that strange purple light, but his thoughts couldn't help but travel back to his previous life, also going through the same Transmission Formation, which allowed him to bear the burden of this reincarnation that would change his fate …
"Reporting to Officer Ye, Trial Convention has already begun. All the trial-takers have passed through the Transmission Formation and entered their respective trial areas." Seeing that all the trial-takers had been teleported away, the host took out another Jade Token from somewhere and whispered to it.
"Very good. Is there anyone who can catch your attention?" From the other side of the Jade Token, Officer Ye's voice came.
There is one person who was neither hurried nor slow when he entered the teleportation circle. He was very calm and collected, unlike the other people who were making such a big fuss out of it when they saw the Transmission Formation. The host said honestly.
"Got it. Pay close attention to him. If he applies to cross, report to us."
"Yes." The host agreed, but he felt strange in his heart. How did this Officer Ye know that this person would apply to cross sites? What if he was killed in the first area?
