Chapter 197

"What? Does this Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament have cultivation realm requirements?" Luo Tian asked.

The other party shook his head and said, "The Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament only requires participants to be under thirty years old, but there are no requirements for cultivation realm, however..."

He looked at Luo Tian's information and frowned, saying, "Forgive me for being meddlesome, but the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament does not prohibit killing. According to past experience, for someone at the Qi Gathering Realm, 9th Stage, to participate is basically a nine-out-of-ten chance of death! Even if you don't die, you'll be crippled!"

Speaking of this, he said earnestly, "So, young man, listen to my advice, you'd better not participate."

Luo Tian, however, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I have a hard life, I won't die."

The official frowned and said, "Fine, I've said what I needed to say. If you insist on participating, I'll register you!"

After speaking, he wrote down Luo Tian's name and handed the token back.

"Three days later, go to the martial arts arena in the center of the city!" the official said.

"Thank you." Luo Tian took the token and turned to leave.

"Sigh, this Night Wind Kingdom really has no one left. They haven't participated in the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament for over a decade, so why did they suddenly send someone to die this year? Forget it, what does it have to do with me?" he said, continuing to register people.

On the other side, in a restaurant, a group of young people were talking loudly.

Bai Tianyu, dressed in white, held a wine glass and said to everyone, "Everyone, let me introduce you. This is my good friend, a genius from the Tianhe Sect of the Yulong Kingdom, Han Wenzhou!"

A group of youths immediately began to flatter Han Wenzhou.

But Han Wenzhou waved his hands quickly and said, "Everyone, just call me Han Wenzhou. I cannot afford the title of genius."

Bai Tianyu smiled and said, "Brother Han, don't be so modest. At your age, to have this cultivation base, even in our Tianshuang Kingdom, you are extremely outstanding. You are absolutely worthy of the title of genius!"

But Han Wenzhou smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I'm being modest, but I really cannot afford the title of genius!"

Genius?

If it were a few months ago, if someone said he was a genius, Han Wenzhou would have admitted it without hesitation.

But now... Han Wenzhou's mind suddenly flashed with Luo Tian's figure, and he couldn't help but shiver.

Obviously, the Ziwei Secret Realm had left him with huge psychological trauma.

Bai Tianyu saw that Han Wenzhou had something on his mind, so he asked, "Brother Han, what's wrong with you? Why are you not like yourself at all? Could it be that you encountered something when you went to the Night Wind Kingdom before?"

Han Wenzhou sighed and said, "Yes, I encountered a monster."

"A monster? What kind of monster?"

Han Wenzhou was just about to answer when he heard someone at the stairs laugh, "Sorry, everyone, I'm late!"

Bai Tianyu's eyes lit up, and he smiled, "Lin Zhaoran, you've been squatting at the registration office for another day?"

Lin Zhaoran, who had arrived, smiled and said, "That's right. You know me, I'm not good at cultivation or anything, but I'm very good at intelligence gathering! Such an important grand event as the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament, how can I not get first-hand information?"

Bai Tianyu nodded and said to Han Wenzhou, "Brother Han, let me introduce you. This is Lin Zhaoran, my good friend! His cultivation might not be as good as yours, but his intelligence-gathering ability is top-notch. He's a know-it-all! If you have any questions, you can ask him."

Han Wenzhou immediately stood up to greet him, and Lin Zhaoran also returned the greeting with a smile.

At this time, a youth at the banquet table said, "Brother Lin, did you squat down any geniuses today?"

Lin Zhaoran picked up a bowl of wine, drank it in one gulp, and then said, "Don't mention it, I really did squat down two! One is Wu Zhou, the chief disciple of our Tianshuang Kingdom's Jianhong Mountain. The other is Yuwen Shuo, the young master of the Yuwen family of the Heiyu Kingdom!"

"These two both have Spirit Transformation Realm, 4th Stage cultivation. It's a bit scary!"

Someone nearby exclaimed, "Spirit Transformation Realm, 4th Stage? So strong? Doesn't that mean they have a chance to compete for the championship?"

Lin Zhaoran held up a finger and shook it, saying, "No chance! These two are strong, but at most they can compete for the top ten! As for the championship, it can't be them!"

"Oh? Then who does Brother Lin think will be the champion this year?"

Lin Zhaoran smiled and said, "I have three candidates. The first is Feng Feiyang of our Tianshuang Kingdom's Bai Yun Sword Sect. This person is twenty-eight years old, has Spirit Transformation Realm, 6th Stage cultivation, and is also a sword cultivator who has cultivated sword intent!"

"What? Spirit Transformation Realm, 6th Stage? And a sword cultivator? This is too strong!"

Everyone exclaimed.

Lin Zhaoran continued, "The second is the little demon Mo Sha of the Five Demon Ridge. He also has Spirit Transformation Realm, 6th Stage cultivation. Moreover, he only came out of the Five Demon Ridge this year and challenged dozens of geniuses from the Tianshuang Kingdom, almost all of whom he crushed. He is also a strong contender for the championship!"

"Oh, and the third one?" someone asked.

Hearing this question, Lin Zhaoran's eyes lit up, and he said, "Speaking of this third person, I'm not sleepy anymore! She is the Saintess of the Qixue Palace of the Yunlan Kingdom, Xue Linglong! I'm not exaggerating, in this year's Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament, in terms of looks and figure, she is definitely number one!"

Everyone: "Oh? Really?"

Lin Zhaoran said, "Of course, you can trust my aesthetic taste!"

Bai Tianyu, however, frowned and said, "Lin Zhaoran, in the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament, what's the use of looks? What about strength?"

Lin Zhaoran smiled and said, "As for strength, it's also very terrifying! She is twenty-one years old this year, has Spirit Transformation Realm, 5th Stage cultivation, and is very powerful!"

Everyone: "Wow!"

Bai Tianyu slammed the table, and Lin Zhaoran then said seriously, "Everyone, don't look at her current cultivation realm; it has no advantage compared to the first few, but she possesses a Qi Sea phenomenon: Ice Sealing Three Thousand Miles!"

"What? A Qi Sea phenomenon?"

Everyone exclaimed.

You have to know, even in the Tianshuang Kingdom, people who possess a Qi Sea phenomenon are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Generally, it takes several generations to produce such a monster.

Unexpectedly, they actually ran into one in this generation!

"Good guy, even if she doesn't win the championship in this Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament, it will definitely be her next time! This is a true monster!" Bai Tianyu said in shock.

Everyone nodded one after another, expressing agreement.

And at this moment, Lin Zhaoran suddenly thought of something and said to everyone, "By the way, there's another interesting thing I'll tell you. Do you know that a country actually sent a guy at the Qi Gathering Realm to participate in the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament!"

"What? Qi Gathering Realm? Isn't that just seeking death?"

"Which country is so unreliable? If you can't do it, don't send anyone. Sending someone at the Qi Gathering Realm, isn't that just cheating people?"

"Exactly, who is this unlucky guy?"

Everyone asked with a smile.

Lin Zhaoran smiled and said, "That brat, he's from the Night Wind Kingdom! As for his name, I didn't remember it, it seems to be... surnamed Luo!"

Thump!

Just as his voice fell, a muffled sound came from the side.

Everyone turned to look and saw that Han Wenzhou had already fallen to the ground.

"Brother Han, what's wrong with you..." Bai Tianyu asked hurriedly.

But Han Wenzhou didn't pay any attention to him at all, but looked at Lin Zhaoran and asked with a trembling voice, "Brother Lin, is that person from the Night Wind Kingdom you mentioned named Luo Tian?"
