eading up from below, emanating an air of authority.This is the legendary Dragon King's Palace. Unlike other lineages, no one has dared to challenge it for a long time.Before the stele stood a square...At this moment, the originally chaotic scene instantly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the reviewing stand ahead.

At this moment, five Elder Advisors are seated on the stage. The first one comes from Tiān Wǔ Zhōu and is Huā Sì Jǐn, the Great Elder of the Huā Jiān Pai.

This man had the appearance of a middle-aged person. Like his disciples, he looked incredibly flamboyant. His face was covered in rouge, but his aura was incredibly powerful. No one dared to underestimate him because of his looks.

Coming in second was Jue Ran, the Grand Elder of Absolute Sentiment Valley in Tianmang Prefecture. This old woman still had the air of a ruthless master, sitting there without any expression, her body motionless, just like a wax figure.

The third one looked much more normal. He was a slightly overweight middle-aged man, the emperor's older brother, and the first prince of the Holy Dragon Imperial Family, Bai Li Xingkong.

Behind him was Li Miaozhen, the Great Elder of the Hantian Sword Sect, and the last one was Ximen Feng.

Just now, the one who spoke was Bai Li Xing Kong. As the host, he is in charge of today's competition.

He was able to sit on the position of the first prince of the Holy Dragon Empire, not just relying on his connections, his cultivation was also extremely powerful, he was a peak Mahayana cultivator.

That's precisely why, with the powerful support of his true energy, he didn't need any microphone at all. Every word he uttered could be heard clearly in every corner of the venue, ensuring everyone could hear him loud and clear.

Welcome everyone to my Tiansheng Prefecture, to my Shenglong Empire, to participate in this Heaven's Talent War. First, I will announce the prizes for this competition.

As he said this, the expressions on everyone's faces immediately became tense because the prize for this competition had been kept secret before, and no one knew what it was.

Ye Bufan silently prayed in his heart, filled with anticipation. He hoped fervently that nothing would go wrong and that it would be a top-grade spirit stone.

"The first-place prize is five top-grade spirit stones, the second-place prize is three top-grade spirit stones, and the third-place prize is one top-grade spirit stone..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the room erupted in excitement.

"My goodness, I didn't hear wrong, did I The prize is actually top-grade spirit stones! This competition is truly generous…"

“Top-grade spirit stones! Those are top-grade spirit stones, something you can’t buy even with money. I'm going all out for this prize…”

"Even if I don't get first place, I have to get a top-grade spirit stone..."

The disciples in the audience were all incredibly excited, like they had been injected with chicken blood.

"Silence!"

Bai Li Xing's lips curled into a smile, seeming extremely pleased with everyone's reactions.

"When the audience settled down, he continued, 'Second, I announce the rules for this competition.'"

The War has always emphasized strength and cultivation, so our rules are simple: no restrictions.

You can use poison, you can use hidden weapons, you can use forbidden spells. As long as you have a means to defeat your opponent, anything goes!

Moreover, during the battle, do your best to avoid harming the lives of the enemy. But since it is a battle, accidents may happen, and casualties are inevitable. If you are afraid, you can withdraw now!

As soon as he spoke, the stadium erupted in another wave of astonishment.

Once this last rule is issued, there will be no difference between fighting an enemy. There's no need to hold back at all, you can let loose completely. This has never been the case before.

That is to say, the rules of this year's Genius Monster War have been changed, becoming more savage and bloody than before.

Bai Li Xingkong raised his hands, pressed them down towards the empty space, and silence fell over the scene once more.

Let me explain the format of this competition again. There are a total of one hundred participants, no grouping required. They will be paired up randomly through a draw to compete against each other. The winners advance to the next round.

After the rules were announced, the crowd at the venue was in an uproar again. Obviously, this was very different from the previous grouping draw competition format.

"My goodness, how did it change to this form Doesn't that mean whether or not you can advance depends entirely on luck"

"Yeah, if I drew the Immortal Cold Sword in the first round, wouldn't that just be cruel"

"Not just the Ice Sword Fairy, but people from Absolute Emotion Valley and the Flower Among Branches Sect are all strong..."

Seemingly knowing what everyone was thinking, Bai Li Xingkong spoke again: "Don't complain, luck is also part of strength. Our competition is absolutely fair, and no one knows who their opponent will be."

Upon hearing this, the crowd fell silent. After all, the rules applied equally to everyone.

Bai Li Xingkong said again, "That's all I have to say about the rules of the competition. Let's discuss the distribution of the ten spots on the Ten-Tier Transcending Heaven Tower afterward."

My Holy Dragon Empire has come up with a distribution plan. Discuss amongst yourselves, elders, and let me know if it works or not.

Based on the results of this competition, the number of spots each state can receive will be allocated.

The first place team can get forty spots, the second place team gets thirty spots, the third place team gets twenty spots, the fourth place team gets nine spots, and the fifth place team gets one spot.

Bai Li walked with a cunning smile on his face. Apparently, he had taken advantage of his position as the host to make some changes to this plan.

Tian Wu and Tian Mang states are powerful. He didn't touch the pie of these two states, but instead squeezed the states behind them, Tian Luo and Tian Qiong.

Before this, anyone could have guessed that Tianluo State would inevitably be last. This time, there were five spots available for the competition, but in the end, only one spot remained to enter the Ten-Tier Heavenly Tower.

Although Tianluo State usually received a limited number of spots, it was never this few. Obviously, Bai Li Xingkong is determined to eradicate them completely.

After the plan was announced, the schoolyard was once again abuzz with activity. However, this time, the vast majority of people were gloating and rejoicing at the news, with few opposing voices.

Only a small number of cultivators from Tianluo Prefecture came to watch the battle, each with faces filled with indignation and humiliation. They had not only been robbed of their opportunity but also deeply humiliated.

Xi Men Feng's expression darkened, she had no idea about this plan before, it was obviously something Bai Li Xing Kong came up with on the spot.

"Your Highness, this isn't right, isn't one spot too few for the final round"

"That's quite a lot already!"

Bai Li Xing Kong shook his head, a faint smile still gracing his face.

As everyone knows, we cultivators have always valued strength above all else. If you lack the strength, why claim so many spots Isn't that a waste of resources Those who are incapable should yield resources like the Heavenly Ascension Tower to others.

If Tian Shengzhou comes in last this time, I have no complaints. We willingly accept that spot.

Li Miaozhen followed up, saying: "I also think it's fair to announce this rule before the competition. If you feel that a quota is insufficient, then strive for the best results. The first place has forty quotas after all."

After finishing her sentence, she glanced towards Tianluo State, her eyes landing on Ye Bufan. Her gaze was filled with mockery.

Ye Bufan's expression was as calm as still water, but secretly he found the whole situation rather amusing. This allocation scheme was bound to backfire, and this time, Tian Sheng Prefecture would likely end up harming itself.

I also think this plan is feasible!

Huo Si Jin's voice was sharp, representing Tianwu Prefecture making their stance clear. After all, they could take forty spots, why not return the favor

Subsequently, Jue also made a statement in support of the plan. Of the five elders on stage, only Ximen Feng opposed it.

"Bai Li Xingkong chuckled with a hint of triumph: 'The minority follows the majority. Since all four elders agree, this plan is passed.'"

Although Ximen Feng was furious, she had no choice but to press down on her anger and ask: "How is the ranking of this state decided then"ly at his heart.As the top assassin, with her powerful strength, her blade was incredibly fast, striking him straight through the heart.A flash of killing intent crossed the black falcon's eyes. He ha...
