Upon hearing these words, the originally bustling square suddenly fell silent!
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the elder at the center of the square to speak because they all knew that the rules of the Heavenly Pride Conference were about to be announced. No one dared make a sound at this moment; whoever did would become the enemy of all.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the rules of this Heavenly Pride Conference are similar to the previous ones! Today, there are a hundred million participants in the Heavenly Pride Conference. Therefore, we will open ten secret realms shortly, named: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and Kui!" the elder spoke solemnly.
"These ten great secret realms will form into different worlds, each with its own perilous conditions. There’s even the possibility of falling within them!"
"Moreover, within these secret realms, there are tremendous benefits, even ancient relics and Spiritual Medicines from the Ancient Era! However, with great benefits come great dangers!"
"As for the degree of danger, starting with A, B, C, D, it decreases in order, meaning the A-level secret realm is the most dangerous, and the Kui-level secret realm is the least dangerous! Once you enter a secret realm, the first ten million to exit will advance to the next stage! As for where the exit is, there are no rules and no restrictions. As long as you enter the secret realm and then come out, that’s enough!"
With the elder’s words coming to an end.
The Void trembled violently.
Then, ten pitch-black steles descended from the sky. These steles were identical in shape, with almost no differences.
The only difference was that the surfaces of these steles were individually inscribed with the characters A, B, C, D... and so on.
"Now, you may choose for yourselves!" the elder stated clearly.
Everyone listened very carefully.
With ten secret realms in total, once inside, there would likely be mechanisms, Arrays, and Demon Beasts among other obstacles.
As long as one leaves the secret realm, the challenge is considered successful!
The first ten million who exit the secret realm will proceed to the next round.
Logically speaking, the simpler the secret realm, the faster one comes out.
Similarly, the simpler the secret realm, the fewer treasures it contains, and the greater the competition for places. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on NoveI[F]ire.net
For example, in the Kui-level secret realm, the conditions are certainly very relaxed, but it definitely won’t be so simple for those who enter to come out, as they must compete against each other.
While in the A-level secret realm, because it’s more dangerous inside, there certainly won’t be too many who enter!
The pressure of competition is not as great!
After the elder gives the start signal, a large number of Cultivators rush towards the Kui-level and I-level secret realms, while not a single person prepares to enter the A-level secret realm!
It was at this moment.
A young man walked up to the front of the A-level secret realm, stopped there, and shouted, "Who is Lin Fan?"
All the people on the square were stunned!
This name had been buzzing around Emperor Gray City for the past two days; almost everyone knew this name.
Yet, in reality, not many had seen Lin Fan!
"Fen Xiao? Sss! The top youth of the Reincarnation Forbidden City, why is it him! What does he want with Lin Fan?"
"Don’t you know? A couple of days ago, in the Zhenxiu Building, Lin Fan crippled Yu Wenbo of the Reincarnation Forbidden City, and Fen Xiao is also from the Reincarnation Forbidden City..."
The crowd suddenly realized and were all anticipating Lin Fan’s appearance.
After a full ten breaths, Lin Fan hadn’t shown up, not even making the slightest sound.
"Why isn’t he coming out?"
"Could it be that he doesn’t dare to come out?"
"That makes no sense! Someone inside the Treasure Delicacy Tower personally saw Lin Fan and said he’s extraordinarily splendid, like a Divine King descending to the mortal realm, definitely no ordinary person. By reason, he shouldn’t be this cowardly!"
"Extraordinarily splendid? A Divine King descending? What a joke... If he was really that powerful, he wouldn’t be hiding and not coming out!"
The crowd in the plaza, sneering with mocking laughter.
There were also people looking for Lin Fan’s whereabouts!
However, at the scene, other than the one hundred million participants of the Heavenly Pride Conference, there were over a billion spectators who descended to watch. To find Lin Fan from among these billion people was like looking for a needle in a haystack, utterly unrealistic.
A figure leapt forward, landing before the Class A Stele, standing in front of Fen Xiao and laughed, "Hehe! Fen Xiao, I think this Lin Fan is just a turtle hiding its head! You don’t need to worry about him; your competitor is me, not Lin Fan!"
This man had a ferocious appearance, with a pair of pitch-black horns on his head, and his body covered in cow fur!
He was a bull spirit from the mighty Bull Demon Clan, named Niu Ben!
His strength was incredibly formidable; the aura he revealed was chilling, like a great ancient demon descending, so oppressive that it left people gasping for air.
Fen Xiao let out a cold snort, sneering, "Lin Fan, if you’ve got the guts, then enter the Class A realm. I’ll be waiting for you inside!"
After saying that, Fen Xiao turned around and flew towards the Class A realm’s Stele, a dark light flashed, and he disappeared into the Stele.
"Hehe! Lin Fan, did you hear that? If you’re a turtle, then don’t go to the Class A realm. You can choose from Kui Level, Xin Level, any realm you like!" Niu Ben glanced over the crowd, chuckled, and then dashed into the realm.
"Lin Fan, or... maybe you shouldn’t enter the Class A realm. I know you’re strong, but Fen Xiao’s strength is utterly terrifying! It’s been said that when he was a Sixth Rank Venerable Sage, he could leap across three small realms and slay a Ninth Rank Venerable Sage! The Class A realm is indeed vast, but once you go in, there’s also a good chance you’ll encounter Fen Xiao!" Xiao Wu lowered her voice, concernedly warning.
She understood why Lin Fan hadn’t come out!
Fen Xiao’s strength was indeed too terrifying. Even for Lin Fan, it was wise to avoid his edge.
"Okay, I got it. Which realm have you chosen to enter?" Lin Fan didn’t argue and simply nodded lightly.
"My strength is actually quite average, so I’m planning to choose the Geng Level realm!" Xiao Wu disclosed her choice.
The Geng Level realm was ranked sixth, not the worst, but also not the best, more or less just right.
"Alright, you go ahead then! I’ll pick in a moment." Lin Fan nodded lightly.
"Okay, see you after we leave the realms." Xiao Wu agreed.
She flew towards the Geng Level realm’s Stele, and as she approached the Stele, she was drawn in by a dark light.
After Xiao Wu left, the voice of Emperor Jade came into Lin Fan’s mind, "Little Fan Fan, this isn’t like you. Have you really turned timid today? Fen Xiao challenged you in front of ten billion people, and you remain indifferent?"
"Why bother with him? In the presence of these ten billion people, can I fight him? If I encounter Fen Xiao in the upcoming competitions, I’ll just kill him; he’s merely a jumping clown." Lin Fan shook his head lightly.
He was very clear about his own strength!
Lin Fan did not feel any threat from Fen Xiao.
So, to Lin Fan, Fen Xiao was simply not worth considering!
"Hahaha! You really are..."
Emperor Jade laughed, very satisfied in his heart.
This was Lin Fan’s character!
