Chapter 987
The participants were locked inside the temple and couldn’t go out. They all looked out from the gate and saw the battlefield outside. Yi Tianyun stood at the gate and didn’t see anything outside, but he noticed that the battlefield was clearly different from any other planet! This place didn’t have any Spiritual Pressure, and it didn’t have any Dangerous Zone either. From a distance, it was like a barren plane without anything significant in it.
In addition to that, Yi Tianyun didn’t see any other temple in the distance, but he knew that there must be other temples out there! There had to be hundreds of temples in total and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of participants.
Nevertheless, the God Domain’s War of Ascension only ranked the top 100 cultivators! The 2nd Grade God Domain only took the best of the best. They wouldn’t take those who weren’t worth their time and effort to cultivate. Although it might seem condescending for the 2nd Grade God Domain to do so, it was the most efficient way to make sure that they got the most promising cultivator!
This was also the biggest reason why most God Domain didn’t show any interest in Mortal Domain, as they were too weak for their standard.
“This is God Domain’s War of Ascension, if I get to the top spot, what reward would I get?” Yi Tianyun said as he kept peeking outside the gate. He pitied everyone here as it seemed their world was dictated by the strong, but nevertheless, it was the truth of the Cultivation World!
For now, Yi Tianyun just had to wait for the War of Ascension to commence.
“It seems we have to wait for a while until all participants are here! When it’s time, we will be given a Token that represents our life! If we lose our Token, then we are done!” A cultivator explained the War of Ascension rules.
“So, what would they see in us for us to have a better chance to reach the top 100?” one of the cultivators asked.
“It’s hard to say as it would change every time, but there will be no change in the first stage of the war. At the very least, they would cull half of the participants immediately!” the cultivator earlier added.
“More than half in the first stage? Isn’t it too excessive?” Another cultivator asked worriedly. But as he said, the elimination number was too high!
“Well, the first stage is collecting Tokens! Those who collect a certain number of Tokens would be eligible to advance. But I am not sure how many Tokens we need to advance!” The Explainer said with a shrug. “In short, if you lose your Token, you will be teleported back here immediately, but you won’t be able to fight anymore.” He said confidently.
This old senior cultivator then explained everything he knew about the War of Ascension. He had already participated more than once, and so he knew about the War of Ascension more than anyone there. He was already prepared to explain everything he knew about the War of Ascension. He knew that no one would explain these rules anyway.
“Now, we will have better odds if we stay together as a team!” Sikong Ma, the man who kept explaining the War of Ascension rules earlier, added. “So, would you like to team up with us? We are on the same side here.” Sikong Ma asked Yi Tianyun.
“I am sorry, but I only work alone!” Yi Tianyun said apologetically. He didn’t understand these people’s way of thinking as they had to get as many Tokens as they could in the end. However, if they worked as a team, they would need a huge amount of Token to advance, which was terrible! Although it wasn’t that bad, how would they split the Token? It probably went according to what the leader said anyway.
Sikong Ma’s face sank, and his eyes turned cold.
“You really are one arrogant brat! Brother Sikon went out of his way and invited you to our team, but you didn’t even appreciate that!” One of the cultivators behind Sikong Ma shouted.
“Yeah, Elder Nian already told us to unite, but are you seriously refusing to do so?” another cultivator said provocatively. They tried to make Yi Tianyun feel bad to make him join the team. They knew how powerful Yi Tianyun was, so they wouldn’t miss the chance to recruit Yi Tianyun!
“Stop, he is a genius! He has his own means, and if he doesn’t want to be with us, there is nothing we can do! But what about you, Xiao Murong? Do you want to be on our team? I have a lot of experience, and I will be able to help you reach a high rank!” Sikong Ma asked Xiao Murong to join his team. If Yi Tianyun, the best pick among the participants from Heavenly Edict Divine Territory, rejected his offer, it was a given to choose the second best pick, Xiao Murong!
“I am not interested!” Xiao Murong said as she turned around disinterestedly. She rejected Sikong Ma’s offer without any second thought! Sikong Ma’s face was burning from embarrassment as he was rejected two times successively!
“Can’t you consider for a while, Xiao Murong? There are three people in my team who know about the rules of War of Ascension very well, so we will be able to get an excellent result for sure!” Sikong Ma said as he tried to persuade Xiao Murong to join his team.
“What the hell are you talking about? You can’t even reach the top 100 for a long time! Why would I team up with a failure!” Xiao Murong said disgustedly.
Yi Tianyun immediately laughed out loud as Xiao Murong’s degrading words were the truth! Sikong Ma kept spouting useless bullshit from earlier, and Yi Tianyun himself was already getting tired of hearing it! If Sikong Ma was really reliable, he shouldn’t be here!
If a strong cultivator participated in the War of Ascension, they would certainly produce a good result during their first time!
That was why everyone didn’t dare to say anything back to Xiao Murong!
Yi Tianyun stopped after a while, but he couldn’t help but smile as he saw the ugly face of Sikong Ma’s henchmen. Sikong Ma was just spewing bullshit, but still, it was a good thing to unite in one team!
