Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 238

After reading and reviewing all the information about the candidates that he needed to pay attention to, Wang Wei asked Wang Ju: "What’s the situation with Fan Li?"

"Many people or factions are paying attention to him and his inheritance. After all, most cultivators have lost a loved one during their journey, and the possibility of losing one is very high. So, with this inheritance, it is the perfect chance for them to make up for their regrets.

"Additionally, including him into their factions will add an additional Emperor Scriptures to their own inheritance, so many people have plans to try to recruit him after the Tournament--even if they have to use force," replied Wang Ju.

Wang Wei then nodded as he could guess that the Dao Opening Sect had similar strategy; then, he dismissed her by ending the communication talisman.

Then, he started to check his cultivation. Inside his Divine Sea, he saw 17 Origin Patterns in his Ancient Lamp and he nodded in satisfaction while thinking to himself:

’One Origin Pattern per year is considered a fast cultivation process, so in another 33 years, I should reach the total 50 Origin Patterns needed before breaking through the Divine Body Realm.

’However, given the fact that I have a Transcendent Dao Foundation and in order to increase the power of my True Will, I will need to have more than 50 Origin Patterns. Meaning, while I cultivate the 51st Origin Pattern and up, most of my competitors will have reached the stage of breaking through higher realm.

’So, I need a little help to speed up the process.’

After that, he took out the Spiritual Milk from the Calcify Milk Cave back in the sect and drank it to increase his cultivation speed. However, Wang Wei did not enter retreat this time, but focused on the Third Round that was taking place.

In the Secret Realm of the Tournament, while all these world changing events were taking place, the Seeded-Players were in their own residence. After the number of participants reached 100,000 from half a billion in the past ten years, they received notifications that the Third Round would begin.

Inside Li Jun residence, he suddenly opened his eyes from his state of meditation after receiving a talisman warning him of the beginning of the Third Round.

After getting up, he put on his armor and held his spear in his hand. While doing some basic stretches, Li Jun suddenly sneezed twice.

After frowning, he muttered to himself: "Who’s talking bad things about me now? Could it be my Ling’er? No, I have not done anything bad in the past decade. So, is it big brother Wang Wei? Is he blaming me for something again?"

After that, he walked in front of an array that would teleport him to a certain part of the Secrem Realm. While waiting, Li Jun started thinking about the rules of this round and the challenges he will face. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}

According to the Academy’s rule, the Tournament is divided into 30 Sectors, with each Seeded-Players in charge of a sector. In the third round, these seeded-players have to participate in eliminating as many people as possible until the number of participants is reduced from 100,000 to only 1,000 people.

This round is important because this is the time that these seeded-players have to show the reason they were chosen as such. So, throughout history, the third round has always been a cruel one as most participants usually banded together to fight and kill these Seeded-Players.

So, if the Seeded-Players are not strong enough or vigilant enough, they might be killed during this round, or forced to run for their lives and be humiliated in front of trillions of people.

Be that as it may, this generation’s [Heaven Chosen Selection Trial] is different as many of the Seeded-Players did not participate. That includes Wang Wei, Di Tian, Wu Hong, Liu Meixiu from the Herd Raising Valley, Zhen Biyu from the Five Elements Palace and Feng Heng from the Taiyi Gate who left midway through.

Additionally, there are people with strength similar to the Seeded-Players--like Mo Xingyun and Zhang Xuan--that do not hold this position due to the fact that they have remained low-key in the eyes of the public until the Tournament began.

Adding to that the few rising talents that appeared in the second rounds, the third round should be very exciting.
