Chapter 824: Chapter 113: True Skill Revealed in Battle!

The venue for the Spirit Seizing Conference is the West City Gate of Jinyang Immortal City.

At this time, outside the West City Gate,

the crowds were formidable and bustling, ten gigantic high platforms were arranged outside the city, emitting waves of spirit light,

with arrays guarding on all sides.

At a glance, they turned out to be Tier Four High-Grade Level!

The platforms had long been encircled by spectators, standing or sitting, whispering and discussing eagerly, all anticipating the soon-to-begin Spirit Seizing Conference.

Zhou Xun, True Monarch Tianci, and Wang Erniu arrived at the venue early, quietly waiting.

Just as everyone was eagerly awaiting, a melodious celestial music suddenly echoed from the sky.

The crowd looked up, only to see two teams of guards wearing golden armor escorting a colossal Flood Dragon Dragon carriage slowly flying in,

on which sat a dignified man with a high crown and a dragon robe.

"It’s the Jinn Emperor, His Majesty Jinn!"

The appearance of the Jinn Emperor made the entire venue instantly silent, with many people promptly paying their respects.

"I didn’t expect the Jinn Emperor to come as an observer!"

Zhou Xun looked at the Jinn Emperor above and couldn’t help but marvel, judging by the aura emanating from him, he was indeed a Peak Nascent Soul Cultivator.

"The Spirit Seizing Conference is a major event in the Great Jin Dynasty, naturally he would show up!" continued True Monarch Tianci.

"With him here, those from White Bone Mountain wouldn’t dare be so blatant, would they!" Wang Erniu chimed in.

"Probably still the same!" Zhou Xun shook his head.

In reality, the Emperor of the Cultivation Realm is unlike the mundane world, wielding the power of life and death,

but rather akin to the Sect Leader of a sect, possessing certain power but not excessive. ℯℯ𝑙.

Amidst the discussion, the carriage arrived above the crowd, and the Jinn Emperor stepped out from the carriage, casting a glance over the crowd, and then slowly spoke.

"There’s no need for formalities, today is the grand event of the Spirit Seizing Conference, I have come especially to observe."

"Now I declare, the conference is officially underway!"

With the end of his words, a white-haired elder, dressed in a golden dragon robe and wearing a high crown, flew out from below.

"Silence!"

The elder’s majestic voice spread around, carrying the suppression of a Peak Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Instantly, the chaotic noise at the West City Gate quieted down, becoming incredibly peaceful.

"I am Ji Heng, responsible for this Spirit Seizing Conference!"

"Oh, so it’s Elder Ji Heng, he is renowned for his impartial enforcement, with him presiding over this Spirit Seizing Conference, fairness is surely ensured!"

A round-faced young man in his twenties exclaimed excitedly.

Ji Heng, also the current Second Elder of the Jinn Dynasty Royal Family, with Peak Nascent Soul Cultivation.

"Elder Ji Heng is indeed fair, but the selection of the Pavilion Master may not necessarily be fair,"

beside him, a young man in white uttered words that greatly surprised the round-faced youth.

"Oh really, what insights do you have, isn’t it all about individual skills?" The round-faced youth grunted dissatisfiedly.

The white-clothed young man ignored him, as if he hadn’t heard his words, speaking to himself.

"People from major forces, their cultivation techniques and magical treasures, cannot be compared to ordinary cultivators. For example, if a senior person leaves powerful treasures behind, how can those from ordinary backgrounds be opponents, this is the first point,"

"Cultivators from major forces have many helpers, completely able to join forces in sect selections, whereas ordinary cultivators mostly operate alone, even when participating in contests, they rarely consider teaming up, thus lowering their success rate, this is the second point,"

"As for the third, hehe, it’s better not to mention!"

"What’s there that can’t be mentioned, isn’t it true that cultivators from major forces have rooted influence in the court, able to access the list of Magic Combat cultivators early, thoroughly studying their opponents,"

"even bribing participating cultivators to pre-claim the position of Pavilion Master!"

Their ears rang a taunting voice, it was Feng Yang who had rejected Bai Yu.

When they looked, it turned out a Nascent Soul elder was there, they promptly paid their respects, daring not to speak further.

At this moment, Elder Ji Heng’s voice rang out:

"Next, I will announce the rules of the conference!"

"First, cultivators participating in the Spirit Seizing Conference will duel each other according to their registration in the State Mansion."

"The victor advances to the next round, until a single cultivator remains, becoming the Pavilion Master of that mansion!"

"Second, during this Magical Combat, no harm to life is allowed, or it will be considered a provocation to the Great Jin, and their cultivation will be abolished as a warning!"

After speaking, he cast a glance over the crowd.

"The Spirit Seizing Conference, now begins."

With the end of his words, ten cultivators flew out from the crowd below, each heading to one of the major high platforms,

clearly the judges of this Spirit Seizing Conference.

Judging from their aura, they all appeared to be Late-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivators.

One of them shouted:

"The first high platform will host the Xuyang Prefecture duel, all registered cultivators come forward!"

Subsequently, as many as twenty-six figures flew into the air, standing mid-air.

Simultaneously, the ten platforms were quickly filled with cultivators participating in the conference.

"Why are there so many participating cultivators, in previous years, islands with more than twenty registrations were a rarity!"

A familiar voice sounded not far from Zhou Xun.

Looking over, it was indeed the middle-aged Confucian Scholar met during registration the other day, Le Jiu.

"Daoist Le, were there few participants before?" Zhou Xun transmitted sound.

Seeing it was Zhou Xun, Le Jiu nodded, approached Zhou Xun, and replied:

"Indeed, in the previous two sessions I participated in, most contests had only a dozen people, just like this Xuyang Prefecture, last session only fourteen people participated,"

"This session, however, there are as many as twenty-six people, the number nearly doubled!"
