Chapter 227: Rewards

After Luo Tian, the results of everyone who followed did not fluctuate much.

Very quickly, everyone's results were organized.

In the end, three hundred and eight people passed the assessment.

Afterward, the various elders activated the teleportation array and brought everyone back to the Tianshuang Kingdom capital.

"Everyone, cultivate for a while; the final round of the assessment will begin shortly! It is also the assessment that determines the qualifications to enter Mount Sumeru!"

After Elder Sun left this sentence, he left first.

"My god, I actually made it to the final round?" Lin Zhaoran couldn't believe everything before his eyes right now.

One must know that he was forced to come to the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament by his father.

In his plan, he was just going to make a cameo appearance and leave.

But he didn't expect to have reached this position.

Bai Tianyu beside him said: "Let me correct you, you aren't just 'making it' now! You are currently ranked second in the total standings!"

Lin Zhaoran immediately laughed: "Second place! If my father knew, wouldn't he be beating drums and celebrating?"

Bai Tianyu nodded and said: "Indeed, but don't forget the rules for the final round of the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament! This second place of yours will become a target for everyone."

Lin Zhaoran's smile instantly froze on his face.

"Ah... I almost forgot!" Lin Zhaoran's face turned pale.

Luo Tian asked from the side, confused: "What, what are the rules for the final round? Is there a problem with being in second place?"

Lin Zhaoran hurriedly said: "Big Brother, did you really not look at the rules at all..."

Han Wenzhou complained from the side: "Do you think he needs to know the rules?"

Lin Zhaoran was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "That's true."

Indeed, with strength reaching this level,

rules or whatever were no longer important.

However, Lin Zhaoran still explained: "It's like this, the final round of this year's Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament is the Tianshuang Battlefield!"

"The so-called Tianshuang Battlefield is a battlefield with a complex environment, and then all the contestants go in for a grand melee!"

Luo Tian asked in surprise: "A grand melee for everyone?"

Bai Tianyu said: "That's right, this kind of grand melee is closer to the situation at Mount Sumeru! Moreover, the organizers of the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament believe that in actual combat, besides cultivation and strength, other abilities are equally important."

"For example, connections, strategy, and the ability to form alliances. Those who can break out of the encirclement in such a situation are the true strongest!"

After hearing this, Luo Tian nodded slightly.

Although this rule had its flaws,

the idea was correct.

After all, when walking in the world, where are there so many opportunities for one-on-one duels?

On the other side, Lin Zhaoran continued to introduce: "In the final round's melee, everyone will receive a base score based on their ranking from the previous round! For example, this time, there are three hundred and eight people in total, and Big Brother Luo Tian, you are ranked first, so you default to having three hundred and eight points."

"And the person ranked three hundred and eighth only has one point. However, in the battle, if you defeat an opponent, you can seize the points on the opponent's body and add them to your own."

"In this way, the higher the ranking, the easier it is to become someone else's target! After all, defeating someone ranked higher yields more points than defeating a dozen people ranked lower!"

"And originally, according to normal deduction, people ranked higher have stronger strength. So although many people want to defeat them, there may not be many who dare to make a move."

Speaking of this, Lin Zhaoran immediately shook his head and sighed.

Luo Tian looked at him and realized: "So you're saying that right now, you've become a big fat sheep in everyone's eyes?"

Lin Zhaoran nodded.

"I was too busy collecting spiritual herbs before, who would have thought of all this! If it starts in a moment, I estimate that among these three hundred-plus people, except for you three, everyone wants to beat me up!" Lin Zhaoran said with a mournful face.

Seeing this, Han Wenzhou reached out and patted his shoulder to comfort him: "Brother Lin, don't worry, perhaps the reality is different from what you think."

Lin Zhaoran looked up and asked: "Really?"

Bai Tianyu nodded and said: "Really! Because no matter what those two think, actually, I also really want to beat you up!"

"I..."

Lin Zhaoran was speechless again.

Just at this moment...

Dong!

A bell rang, and everyone looked up.

They saw several elders walking toward the crowd with smiles.

"Young talents from all the various kingdoms! First of all, congratulations on making it to this step!"

"Next will be the final round of the Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament, and also the real main event!"

"Regarding the rules for the final round, we have already distributed them, and I believe everyone has read them, so I won't repeat them."

"Here, I will announce the thing everyone is most concerned about! That is, the rewards for this Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament!"

Swish!

Hearing this, everyone in the arena became serious.

Then they heard the elder continue: "Everyone present, regardless of whether you win or lose in the next round! You will all receive one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones as a reward for entering the final round!"

One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones was no longer a small amount.

However, by now, no one cared about this.

The elder continued: "And after entering the top one hundred, besides the spirit stone reward, you can obtain the qualification to enter Mount Sumeru!"

The crowd was in an uproar again.

After all, the qualification for Mount Sumeru was much more precious than one hundred thousand spirit stones.

The elder waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Next, is the main point!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and took an ancient book from his bosom.

"Hm? What is this?" a young man asked.

The elder smiled: "This is the reward issued by the Tianshuang Kingdom royal family for this Tianshuang Martial Arts Tournament: 'Tyrant Heaven Body Refining Art'!"

Boom!

Once these words were spoken, the whole arena exploded. ===== CHAPTER 229 =====
