Can You Win?

In the center of Tongtian City, a magnificent, all-black martial arts arena stands tall.

This Meteorite Arena was originally the prized possession of the Tongtian Family of Upper Thousand Provinces, but now it has been completely moved here.

The arena has a trapezoidal structure, surrounded by tiered spectator stands that can accommodate 100,000 cultivators to watch the battle.

The stands were now packed with people, as cultivators from all walks of life took their seats.

The nine main arenas in the center of the arena are arranged in a nine-palace formation, and are entirely made of Mysterious Sky Star Marrow).

This self-repairing treasure now spreads out for hundreds of feet, and the illusory image of the starry river sealed beneath the platform flows with each step.

Whenever a cultivator ascends the platform, starlight bursts forth from beneath their feet.

"Boom--"

Several massive bronze pillars suddenly rose up, and then the phantoms of ancient ferocious beasts such as Taotie and Qiongqi leaped out from the pillars, weaving together to form a sky-covering Light Screen above the arena, creating a barrier.

Immediately afterwards.

With a resounding chime, 365 small floating platforms rose up like stars surrounding the moon.

These Floating Island arenas, crafted from Void Crystal, not only possess astonishing defensive capabilities but also serve as viewing platforms meticulously prepared for our distinguished guests.

Each Floating Island has a magnificent palace.

Standing there, looking down, you can take in the magnificent view of the entire Martial Arts Competition.

The cultivators flew about on Ride sword, rode on clouds, and used various Law Artifact, creating a lively scene.

"My God..." Jiang Yan looked up at the densely packed figures of cultivators in the air, "How many people are participating?"

"Nearly ten thousand." Qin Wangchuan appeared behind him at some point, hands behind his back, gazing at the sky. "The cream of the crop of the younger generation from Middle Thousand Provinces have all gathered here today."

As they were speaking, several messengers dressed in the attire of the Tongtian Family arrived gracefully. The leader of them bowed respectfully.

"My lord, the Floating Island is ready. Please follow me."

The group followed the envoy across the rainbow Rainbow Bridge and onto the Floating Island viewing platform.

The view from this high vantage point in the clouds is even more magnificent.

The entire Martial Arts Competition was laid out before us, a vast expanse of thousands of people, stretching to the horizon like a tidal wave.

The auras of countless Prodigy intertwined and rose, causing the entire world to tremble.

Only then did Jiang Yan realize that not only the Prodigy had arrived, but also elders and envoys from various families.

The Nine-Turn Pill —that's Sacred Medicine that can Defy Fate with just one pill!

Not to mention the Secret Method passed down from outside the Qin Clan, which don't even exist in the Chuanliu Pavilion, and are considered by many to be theirs for the taking, attracting countless Dao Lineage to emerge.

A giant Light Screen was projected into the sky.

The Light Screen displayed the list of players for the first round of matches, with countless names twinkling like stars.

"It's about to begin," Qin Wangchuan said softly.

In his eyes, this Grand Competition presented a completely different picture.

Thousands of Golden Qi Yun rose from the contestants, converging into a vast golden Cloud Sea clouds above the Martial Arts Competition.

These Qi Yun collided and merged, eventually transforming into a giant golden dragon that surged through the clouds.

Of course, the most dazzling were two of them.

Feng Qingjue and several followers stood by the railing, looking down at the torrent of cultivators gathered below.

"This is quite a spectacle today." A female cultivator in plain clothes beside him gently adjusted her sleeves, her gaze sweeping over the surging crowd below. Her tone carried a hint of emotion. "Look over there, several elders from the Northern Xuan Shuang Sect have also arrived. They haven't appeared in public for a hundred years."

Another stern-faced man, carrying a long sword, nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over a group of cultivators in star-patterned robes in the distance. "Not only that. Even the distant Star Evolution Sect has sent its core disciples. It seems that the Nine-Turn Pill has captured the attention of too many people."

"Treasures stir the heart, as has always been the case." The woman in plain clothes smiled, her eyes flashing with a knowing look. "However, we are not the only ones with hidden talents lurking in the abyss."

After saying that, she gently turned her gaze to the west, landing in the direction where Gu Tianye and his group were.

Feng Qingjue's lips curled slightly, and golden light shimmered in his phoenix eyes as he swept over the area to the west that was enveloped in intense Spiritual Pressure.

"The Great Sun Burning Heaven Sacred Body is indeed extraordinary, but..." A wisp of True Phoenix Fire condensed at her fingertips, "The true phoenix is never afraid of the scorching sun."

"The Nine-Turn Pill is a must-have!"

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged smiles, all seeing the same understanding and anticipation in each other's eyes.

Amidst the convergence of powerful forces, the real contest began long before anyone stepped onto the stage.

Meanwhile, the scene on the western Floating Island was quite different.

Gu Tianye glanced around and had a general idea of who would be appearing today.

Four stunningly beautiful women were adjusting his battle robes beside him.

A woman in blue said softly, "Tianye, I've inquired, and Feng Qingjue seems to be difficult to deal with."

"So what if they're difficult to deal with? It would be strange if they were just small fry." Gu Tianye's body was surrounded by Golden Flames as he looked towards the Floating Island to the east. "Though the phoenix is noble, it will ultimately have to submit to the might of the Great Sun."

He paused slightly, the golden light in his eyes dimming slightly, and a playful smile appeared on his lips, "However... Feng Qingjue is indeed a very beautiful woman."

"Oh? Is that so?"

A soft hum came from his side, and several slender fingers quietly reached to his waist and twisted it gently.

Gu Tianye's Golden Flames trembled slightly. Without changing his expression, he grasped the hand and chuckled softly, "But in terms of elegance, how can anyone compare to the rosy clouds surrounding me? Especially you, Master, whose charm remains undiminished..."

"Loquacious."

Another woman in red covered her mouth and chuckled, "It seems this Grand Competition is destined to be a battle between a dragon and a phoenix."

Gu Tianye donned his battle armor, hands clasped proudly behind his back. "Just what I wanted. Let the world witness the might of the Sacred Body!"

Although the two did not speak directly, their confrontation across the distance already made the atmosphere in the entire fighting arena heavy.

"One is Long Aotian, the other Feng Aotian, this Martial Arts Competition should be decided between the two of them..." Qin Wangchuan muttered to himself.

"Eldest Brother, what are you looking at?" Jiang Yan asked curiously.

Qin Wangchuan withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "It depends on your future opponent."

Jiang Yan gave a vague "oh," rubbed his hands together, leaned closer, and asked in a low voice, "Eldest Brother, do you think I can win?"

"Wrapped up completely."

Jiang Yan: "???"
