Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 402: Qualifiers for the Competition (1)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“This sect competition is one of the most highly anticipated events on the continent. It is also highly anticipated by many sects and even families. “Those who are able to participate in the competition are either confident in their overall strength or want to take a gamble and use this opportunity to raise the rank of their sects.”

Tang Conglin glanced at everyone and paused for a moment. He continued, “So even if our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is participating in the competition under the name of the number one Chamber of Commerce in the world, we must never underestimate any of them! In previous years, there were always unexpected dark horses in the sect competitions, and these people would obtain an astonishing result. No one can tell where the dark horse is. Maybe it’s just a seemingly ordinary person in front of you.”

“As for the content of the competition, it’s very simple. There’s only one word.” Tang Conglin waved a finger. “That’s fighting!”

“The competition starts with the qualifiers. All the participants draw lots to decide their opponents. There are judges selected from various sects, so the drawing of lots is absolutely fair and just.”

“Each sect has at most seven disciples participating in the competition, and the finalists need to choose one of the seven disciples to participate as their representative. If they win, the entire sect will enter the next stage. If they lose, they won’t have the chance to participate in this competition.”

Hearing this, the few people present could not help but frown.

It seemed a bit hasty to decide the success or failure of the sect behind them with just one person.

Tang Conglin also sensed the incomprehension in the hearts of the crowd and chuckled, he continued to explain, “Because of this, the vast majority of the sects would choose to send the strongest of the seven disciples to participate in the qualifying competition. This would ensure that they would be able to successfully fight their way out of the encirclement during the qualifying competition.”

A disciple of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion frowned, he asked in a somewhat confused manner, “If they sent their strongest person at the beginning, wouldn’t that mean that they would expose their trump card to others? Even if they could successfully pass the qualifying competition, they would presumably be targeted by others in the later stages, right?”

Tong Shan, who had not spoken all this while, nodded his head noncommittally. He smiled and said, “That’s true, but it’s still better than being eliminated in the qualifying round. However, although there are quite a number of sects that have sent out their strongest participants in the qualifying round, there are still some sects that have great confidence in their own strength that won’t do so. Most of them will send out a disciple who is above average in strength among the seven people to participate. Not only can they ensure that they can successfully make it to the qualifying round, but they will also do their best to preserve their trump cards.”

“But if they don’t send a disciple who has absolute strength, and if they are defeated in the first round, I’m afraid they wouldn’t even have time to regret it, right?” The female disciple covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

“So sometimes, luck is also a part of one’s strength. Even in some special circumstances, luck takes up the majority of one’s strength.” Tang Conglin nodded with a smile. He glanced at Gu Xi and the other two from the corner of his eyes. His expression gradually became serious, and he continued, “So the first thing we need to do next is to confirm our candidates for the qualifier.”

“Let me do it.” Gu Xi volunteered without thinking.

Everyone’s eyes turned to him when he said this.

It was not that he wanted to be in the limelight, but after listening to Tang Conglin and Qing Zhu’s words, he had no other choice.

He could only guarantee that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would be able to make it to the next round if he or Qing Zhu participated in the competition. Apart from that, he was worried about handing the spot to anyone else.

If he lost the competition, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would not be able to participate in the competition. Then, he would not be able to use this competition to teach the Zhan Clan and other sects a lesson.

He did not want to go to the sects one by one like the Hall of Flowing Light. After all, there was no way to walk by the river without getting wet. If he encountered a tough opponent one day, it would be too late to regret it. It was better to be cautious when doing things.

“You’re volunteering?” Hou Yu looked at Gu Xi with disdain, his eyes full of doubt.

“Is there a problem?” Gu Xi raised an eyebrow, his expression cold.

If this guy dared to provoke him again, he would not mind giving him a good beating in front of Tong Shan and Tang Conglin.

However, to his disappointment, Hou Yu did not continue speaking, as if he was recalling Zhang Zhan’s miserable state. Until now, he was still a little frightened.

“But what if you lose?” Although Hou Yu tactfully did not open his mouth, someone naturally opened his mouth.

The one who spoke was the female disciple. She stared straight at Gu Xi.

Gu Xi merely glanced at her indifferently and coldly said, “If you can do it, you can go.”

These simple words caused the girl to be at a loss for words.

To be able to participate in this competition, not only did they have an absolute requirement for their own strength, but they also had to have an extremely strong mental endurance.

Once they lost, it would implicate the entire sect behind them!

Usually, those with poor mental fortitude would not dare to shoulder this burden. After all, in the previous competitions, there would always be many people who would fail due to excessive nervousness or pressure.

On the other hand, among the few people present, perhaps only Gu Xi and Qing Zhu were the best candidates to participate in the qualifier. After all, the two of them did not belong to the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Even if they lost, they did not need to feel any psychological burden.

“What if you deliberately want our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to lose?” Hou Yu spoke again at this time. He turned his gaze to Tong Shan, who was not far away. “Pavilion Master Tong, forgive me for being blunt. After all, they are not disciples of our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. If they were sent by other forces to deliberately disturb the people of our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion…”

Hou Yu did not finish his sentence, but the meaning in his words was already self-evident.

Hearing this, Tong Shan could not help but fall into deep thought.

Indeed, until now, he still did not know the origin of Gu Xi and the others. It was indeed a little hasty to arrange for the spots for the qualifiers to be allocated to them.

What if Gu Xi really was secretly sent by the other forces? When the time came, he would lose the competition on purpose, and it would be too late for them to cry!

“If you don’t trust me, then you can participate in the qualifiers.” Gu Xi’s voice became colder and colder. The way he looked at Hou Yu made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. “But if you lose the qualifiers, believe me, your ending will definitely be a thousand times worse than Zhang Zhan’s.”
