“Eight participants, isn't it a bit too many disciples from the five nations?”
“Truly a group of useless people, allowing so many disciples from the five nations to break into the top twenty-four.”
“Such a disgrace.”
The top three prodigies of the Emperor Tian, along with many powerful figures from the Dawei Dynasty, were all inwardly dissatisfied.
In their view, this ratio was simply too high. At this rate, wouldn't there be four disciples from the five nations entering the top twelve in the end?
How could such a thing happen?
In the hearts of the Dawei Dynasty strong, they believed that at most only one or two warriors from the five nations could break into the top twelve and obtain the opportunity for inheritance.
Ideally, none should get through; all should be occupied by their Xuanzhou geniuses.
As for the ancient southern capital being a relic within the five nations, they didn't consider that at all.
“Rest assured, with so many participants before, their cultivation levels vary, and the opponents they face will also differ in strength. Naturally, there will be a few lucky ones slipping through, but after reaching the top twenty-four, it will be difficult for these disciples from the five nations to advance further.”
“Hmm, currently we have sixteen talents from Xuanzhou on the field, besides the three great prodigies, the rest are basically first-rate talents beneath them. To obtain an inheritance quota from them is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.”
“Let the people from the five nations be happy for a while longer; soon they should understand what despair is.”
“Hehe!”
Many powerful figures from the Dawei Dynasty communicated secretly, filled with confidence. They believed that the current achievements were just temporary, and the final results would proceed as they had initially predicted.
After a brief break, the third round of the arena competition began.
This round would select the top twelve from the twenty-four participants, and these twelve would have the opportunity to obtain the inheritance.
Before the matches began, the atmosphere in the arena had already become incredibly tense.
Everyone's eyes were cold and fierce.
After all the hard work, coming from various places, participating in multiple assessments and battles, what was the ultimate goal?
Was it not to receive the legendary inheritance of the ancient southern capital?
Now, the opportunity was right in front of them; they just needed to go through one more round of competition to obtain the chance for inheritance.
Who would be willing to give up?
“I must win this round!”
“I’ve heard that the ancient southern capital has an extraordinary origin, and its inheritance is surely extraordinary. As long as I can defeat this opponent, I will have the chance to obtain the inheritance. In the future, stepping out of Xuanzhou and dazzling the entire dynasty is not impossible.”
“I, Meng Xingjue, did not come to this world just to be the green leaf accentuating the three great prodigies. These three great prodigies merely have better backgrounds and more resources. If I can receive sufficient cultivation, my future will undoubtedly surpass that of the three great prodigies of Xuanzhou.”
Everyone's eyes were cold, silently roaring in their hearts.
“The third round of competition begins.”
A cold voice came from above, and with a wave of his hand, a tremendous rumbling sound echoed. The six original arenas in the center quickly began to rotate, merging together in pairs, ultimately transforming into three arenas.
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!
At the same time, six beams of white light fell and enveloped six of the twenty-four participants.
“Hmm? Wang Qiming has been selected, and Huo Tiandu from the Liuxian Sect has also been selected.”
Among the six, two caught Qin Chen's attention.
Wang Qiming's opponent was a genius who had just broken through to the late-stage Profound Level after the Divine Light of the Dao, whom Qin Chen had seen compete before. His strength was exceptionally impressive and should not be underestimated.
