"This challenge... really is interesting."
Qin Hao fully understood what Lu Jingxuan meant. In short...
No matter who they were, obtaining a Qiankun Fruit would be extremely difficult.
That applied even to seed candidates at the Eternity True God pinnacle, or geniuses whose names appeared on the Qiankun Ranking.
A single prerequisite in the rules sent the difficulty soaring for everyone hoping to compete for a Qiankun Fruit.
They were not allowed to challenge anyone at a lower cultivation realm!
An Eternal True God Pinnacle Expert could only challenge another Eternal True God Pinnacle Expert. After twenty consecutive victories, they might even have to challenge a Half-Step Ancestral God...
Just thinking about that difficulty was terrifying.
However...
"Only this way can it truly temper us. Otherwise, simple sparring probably wouldn't do much to improve our strength."
Qin Hao felt that whoever designed these rules had a profound understanding of cultivation and sparring. Indeed, ever since the Southern Frontier Battlefield formed, the Southern Frontier Tea Gathering had been held time and again.
Countless years had passed, yet the rules had never changed. That alone showed how sound they were, and how much they helped True Gods.
"What about people like us, whose cultivation hasn't reached the heaven and earth true god peak?" A thought stirred in Qin Hao's mind, and he asked.
Qin Hao was at the Heaven and Earth True God Perfection Realm.
Yun Chang had only just entered the Heaven and Earth True God realm and had yet to attain even minor mastery.
According to the rules...
They could not challenge anyone whose cultivation was lower than theirs, so Qin Hao and Yun Chang could only challenge True Gods at the heaven and earth true god peak.
That posed little difficulty for Qin Hao, but it put some pressure
