It’s quite apparent that in such a competition filled with freakish talents, even though Lin Fengjie has great confidence in Su Han, he doesn’t dare to hope too much.
The top twenty is Lin Fengjie’s psychological bottom line, and the top ten... would be an enormous surprise!
There are really too many heavenly talents, like the Top Ten Young Masters, Top Ten Fairies, Top Ten Divine Sons, and Top Ten Demon Sons.
Plus, geniuses from the Black and Yellow of Heaven and Earth lists and countless dark horses among the loose cultivators...
The Lower-Class Star Region is vast, and there are many extraordinary people. Even Su Han himself doesn’t dare to take things lightly, which is why he must elevate his cultivation base to the Third-Grade Void Heaven Order. So it’s even less likely that Lin Fengjie, who doesn’t know Su Han’s true strength, could guess.
If Lin Fengjie knew that Su Han is the legendary Nine Shadows Young Master, his psychological bottom line wouldn’t be the top twenty, at least... it would be the top three!
"When exactly does the Heavenly Talents Tournament start?" Su Han asked again.
"The day after tomorrow."
"Where is the location?"
"Savage Immortal Territory."
Lin Fengjie explained: "The Savage Immortal Territory is a Realm Within a Realm jointly created by the experts of the Three Teachings. When the Heavenly Talents Tournament opens, to avoid interference from other loose cultivators, only participants of the tournament and the sects can enter the Savage Immortal Territory."
"I see..." Su Han nodded slightly.
"The current Heavenly Talents Tournament is the same as before, consisting of four stages."
Lin Fengjie continued:
"First Stage: Aptitude test."
"Second Stage: Acquire task items."
"Third Stage: Immortal Bridge journey."
"Fourth Stage: Arena tournament."
Su Han didn’t speak, waiting for Lin Fengjie to continue.
He had only heard about the Heavenly Talents Tournament but had never participated, so he wasn’t very familiar with the details.
"The First Stage’s aptitude test is just like the test loose cultivators undergo when joining a sect."
Lin Fengjie said: "Of course, many people think it’s a bit pointless, but it’s actually not because this test happens under the watchful eyes of the Three Teachings, Nine Factions, and Seventy-Two Sects, ensuring no mistakes occur. The test results will directly eliminate those not fit for the next three stages, and it also helps the Three Teachings, Nine Factions, and Seventy-Two Sects gauge someone’s standing."
Su Han nodded.
To put it straightforwardly, if one wants to draw the interest of the Three Teachings, Nine Factions, and Seventy-Two Sects, the aptitude test is the most direct way!
Because participants of the Heavenly Talents Tournament have various cultivation levels, and although the final champion is undoubtedly strong, those who are eliminated still have a chance to shine.
For instance, even if a Seventh Grade Divine Sea Realm individual wins the tournament but has Red Talent, whereas one of the eliminated has Golden Aptitude, can one say the champion’s future achievement is definitely greater?
That’s impossible. While aptitude doesn’t decide everything, it determines a large part!
"Second Stage, acquire task items."
Lin Fengjie explained further: "In fact, many sects have had such assessments, but acquiring different task items. Every Heavenly Talents Tournament requires different task items. I don’t know what it is this time, but I can confirm that the more task items one acquires, the greater their chances of advancing."
"As for the Third Stage’s Immortal Bridge journey... this depends on personal comprehension."
Lin Fengjie took a deep breath and said: "In previous Heavenly Talents Tournaments, many talented individuals have stumbled at this stage."
"The final arena tournament doesn’t need much of my explanation. You should already understand some of it."
Su Han took note of it, nodding slightly.
As they talked, the group reached the place where the Teleportation Formation was.
After ten transmissions, almost two hours later, Su Han and the others finally saw where the Qing Emperor Sect was.
Endless clouds floated above the Qing Emperor Sect, making the view of the sect’s residence somewhat unclear amidst these clouds.
However, a huge statue could vaguely be seen standing in the center of the sect’s residence.
Even with heads raised, Su Han and the others could only see the statue’s knees. Everything above was entirely blocked from view, even Divine Sense was obstructed by the clouds.
Yet, just this faint glimpse gave an extremely shocking and involuntary feeling of respect.
"This is the first Ancestor Emperor of our Qing Emperor Sect — the Ancestor Emperor of the Void God!"
Lin Fengjie spoke with a face full of reverence and fervor: "The Ancestor Emperor of the Void God didn’t fall. Long ago, he entered the Middle-Class Star Region. It was he who single-handedly founded the Qing Emperor Sect and elevated it to one of the Three Teachings in the Lower-Class Star Region. Many say the Ancestor Emperor of the Void God has likely entered the Holy Domain by now, but he never returned, and no one knows if it’s true..."
Su Han looked at Lin Fengjie, wanting to speak but ultimately said nothing.
He knew the Ancestor Emperor of the Void God... was already dead.
In his past life, Su Han had seen the Ancestor Emperor of the Void God in the Holy Domain.
He was upright and straightforward, leaving a good impression on Su Han.
Su Han even considered giving him special training, but never imagined that the Ancestor Emperor of the Void God went for an opportunity once, never to return.
It was the Sun Sword God who brought back his news and... corpse.
Perhaps in the eyes of all Qing Emperor Sect members, the Ancestor Emperor of the Void God remains forever revered, so Su Han absolutely couldn’t ’speak nonsense’.
"Let’s go, follow me inside."
Lin Fengjie smiled and said: "The day after tomorrow is when the Heavenly Talents Tournament starts. Tomorrow we’ll be on the road, and today, all external aids and participants from the Qing Emperor Sect have already gathered. It’s good to get acquainted with each other to avoid inadvertently injuring allies during the tournament."
"Alright."
Su Han responded softly, walking with Lin Fengjie towards the Qing Emperor Sect.
As they approached, the surrounding spiritual energy grew denser. Upon reaching the sect’s residence, it felt like the Netherworld King Star itself with abundant spirit rain pouring down.
"So refreshing!"
Ling Xiao stretched out his hand, catching the spirit rain, exclaimed: "If I cultivate here for a long time, even without a primordial spirit, my cultivation speed will be very fast!"
"Speaking of primordial spirits, you’re not as good as her." Su Han pointed towards Ye Xiaofei.
"That’s something I have to admit..."
Ling Xiao looked at Ye Xiaofei, smacked his lips, and said: "Such a pure young girl, yet her cultivation speed is terrifying, truly abnormal!"
Ye Xiaofei’s face turned red, and she couldn’t help but retort: "You’re the abnormal one!"
