Chapter 141: Ch 141- Tournament Day

Seeing Mu Shaobei leave, Mu Qingying shook her head and said, "Now he’s probably going to lock himself in his room and cultivate. He won’t come out again until the Secret Realm opens."

Mo Yuan nodded.

"No wonder he is one of the geniuses of Cang Lan Base. Hard work is necessary if you want to become stronger."

"Exactly."

The two of them then entered the elevator and returned to the living room.

After talking for a little while, Mo Yuan stood up.

"I’ll leave now, I’ll see you when the Secret Realm opens."

"Alright, see you then" Mu Qingying replied.

Mo Yuan nodded and left the Mu Family estate.

After returning home, he opened the door and looked around.

The house was completely empty.

’Mo Ran must have gone to the academy.’

He did not think much about it and immediately returned to his cultivation chamber.

After sitting down, Mo Yuan looked at the calendar.

’There are still seven days left.’

He had already obtained a quota for the Secret Realm, so there was no need for him to participate in the selection tournament. As for the Secret Realm itself, Mo Yuan did not think many people there would be able to put any pressure on him.

However, he still did not intend to relax.

’My next opponents are the Sovereign Realm cultivators.’

Although his current strength was already terrifying for someone at the Early Origin Soul Realm, Mo Yuan knew that he was still far from the true peak of the human race.

If he wanted to survive in the outside world and explore more dangerous places, he needed even greater strength.

Mo Yuan stood up and walked toward the cultivation chamber’s beast blood container.

He opened the storage space and took out a large amount of beast blood, pouring it into the container until it was completely filled.

The strong smell of blood spread throughout the chamber.

Mo Yuan stepped inside and sat down cross-legged.

He slowly closed his eyes and the next moment, he activated his Body Morphing Talent.

Countless mouths appeared across his body and then he activated his Devouring Talent.

A powerful suction force immediately spread through his body.

The beast blood inside the container began to move rapidly, flowing toward Mo Yuan’s body.

The blood entered through the countless mouths on his body and was quickly refined.

Mo Yuan’s breathing became steady as he entered a deep state of cultivation.

Seven days later, the day of the Secret Realm selection tournament finally arrived.

It was still early in the morning, around five o’clock.

Inside his cultivation chamber, Mo Yuan slowly opened his eyes. The beast blood that had filled the large container around him had already been completely absorbed.

He took a deep breath and stepped out of the container.

After cultivating continuously for seven days, he could clearly feel that his strength had increased.

Mo Yuan walked toward the Primordial Qi testing equipment.

"Let’s see how much my strength has improved."

He clenched his fist and punched the testing equipment and the numbers on the screen quickly began to rise.

After a few seconds, they stopped.

2.6 million jin.

Mo Yuan looked at the number and nodded.

"Not bad."

His basic strength had increased significantly.

He had also already opened his eighth major meridian. Now, all he needed was to continue tempering it. Once the meridian was completely tempered, he would be able to break through to the Mid Stage of the Origin Soul Realm.

"As for my speed..."

Mo Yuan’s body suddenly disappeared.

Whoosh!

He appeared several meters away in an instant.

"Sixteen Mach. Not bad either."

His speed had also increased during these seven days.

Mo Yuan then spread his Origin Sense.

It continued expanding until it reached a distance of 456 meters.

After checking his improvements, Mo Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

Today was the Secret Realm selection tournament.

Although he already had a quota and did not need to fight for one, he still wanted to see how its being held. After all, this tournament would gather many of the strongest young cultivators in Cang Lan Base and some may have talents which he could copy.

He left the cultivation chamber.

The entire house was quiet.

Mo Ran was still sleeping. After all, it was only five in the morning.

Mo Yuan quietly entered the kitchen, boiled some noodles, made an omelet and ate a simple breakfast.

After finishing his meal, he left the house and headed toward the Human Federation Tower.

Since David was a Sovereign Realm cultivator and one of the people responsible for managing the tournament, he should know all the details.

Soon, Mo Yuan arrived at the Human Federation Tower.

As expected, David’s voice immediately sounded inside his head.

"Mo Yuan, you’re here."

There was no surprise in David’s voice. He had already guessed that Mo Yuan would come to watch the tournament.

"Yes," Mo Yuan replied.

"Alright. Come up."

Mo Yuan entered the elevator and went directly to the 100th floor.

The moment the elevator doors opened, Mo Yuan was slightly surprised.

The entire floor had been completely rearranged.

Four huge screens were mounted on the walls. Each screen displayed a live view of a vast forest that looked somewhat similar to the wilderness around Cang Lan Base.

Several red marks could be seen scattered across the forest.

David noticed Mo Yuan and immediately called out to him.

"Come on, Mo Yuan. Sit down."

"Good morning, Senior David."

Mo Yuan walked over and sat in one of the chairs.

David smiled.

"Good morning, what do you think of the setup?"

"It looks good."

"Haha, these things were specially brought from a Tier 1 Base for the tournament."

David pointed toward the screens.

"This is the area where the preliminary round will be held. Most of the participants will be eliminated there. Only fifty people will qualify for the next round."

He paused before continuing.

"The second round will be a battle tournament. From those fifty people, only twenty-five will qualify for the Secret Realm."

Mo Yuan nodded while looking at the screens.

"These screens will show the contestants performance and the real-time situation inside the field. The footage is being transmitted by drones."

He then pointed toward the forest shown on the screens.

"As for the battlefield, it is a wilderness area near Cang Lan Base. We have already cleared the area of dangerous beasts, so there shouldn’t be any major accidents."

Mo Yuan nodded.

"What about the preliminary round? How will you select the top fifty?"

David smiled.

"That is the interesting part."
