Chapter 1104

~7 min read 1,299 words

Finding a seat to sit down, the next step was to wait slowly.

About half an hour later, all the participants had arrived, and they almost filled all the seats below.

At this time, City Lord Qing Yu finally landed on the noble seat on the high platform.

"Greetings, City Lord!"

"Greetings, Immortal Fairy Qing Yu!"

"Greetings, Master!"

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

Countless people stood up one by one and bowed to Qing Yu at the same time.

The titles called out by each person were also different.

Seeing so many people bowing to her, Qing Yu revealed a satisfied smile on her face and said: "Good, everyone, please sit!"

"Ten years from now, the Yu Emperor Star Star Emperor City will hold a Sword Trial!"

"Each Immortal City has ten spots!"

"Our Qiankun Immortal City is naturally the same. In order to fairly and justly determine these ten strongest Human Immortal disciples, I have organized this competition!"

"I hope you can all achieve the results you have in mind!"

"Of course, since it is a competition, there must be rules!"

"Next, I will announce the rules for this competition!"

Qing Yu said slowly!

The rules were nothing more than those: first, no external objects are allowed, whether talismans, elixirs, or immortal artifacts, because this affects the fairness of the competition; second, after someone surrenders, you must not continue to attack and kill them, otherwise your results will be canceled, and you will also be subject to punishment up to the death penalty.

All sorts of things like this were basically similar to the selection competition within the Red Lotus Immortal Valley.

Finally, she mentioned some rules and items for rewards in a scattered way, and then drifted away.

"Alright!" After the City Lord left, someone said: "Everyone, you can set up stalls to trade now. If you have trading needs, you can set up stalls here!"

"There are only two hours. After two hours, all stalls must be cleared!"

"Free trade, the City Lord's Mansion is not responsible for safety, nor does it charge any form of intermediary fees!"

"Alright, you may begin!"

After speaking, the old man also left.

Soon, cultivators began to display their items and sell them in the square.

There were five or six disciples from the Red Lotus Immortal Valley setting up stalls.

He Pingsheng didn't set up a stall. He and Xi Qingsheng walked along, wanting to see if there was anything they needed to buy.

He Pingsheng mainly wanted to buy some high-tier talismans or immortal arts related to God-Refining.

If there were immortal arts for God-Refining, he wouldn't even bother participating in the subsequent competition; he would just surrender and then be able to leave safely.

But unfortunately, there were none!

Not only did he not find any God-Refining cultivation techniques, but he was also shown a shocking scene.

The Kunwu Mountain elder, Yun Zhongzi, was actually setting up a stall here too. He wasn't setting up a stall to sell items, but to acquire them.

On the stall were written a few large characters: Heavy reward for the number 999 competition token for the first round of the competition.

You must know that this competition held by the City Lord's Mansion was not registered by name, but replaced by numbers.

Just like the Red Lotus Immortal Valley before.

After winning, they would redraw number tokens and then continue to the second round of the competition.

Repeating this, only after the top ten were finally determined would they record the names.

Otherwise, recording the names of several thousand people one by one would be particularly troublesome.

So, these number tokens could be exchanged at will.

And this would not affect the final result of the competition.

But after He Pingsheng saw that Yun Zhongzi wanted to acquire the number 999 token, he immediately became uneasy.

Why?

Because he, He Pingsheng, was number one thousand.

According to the rules, odd and even numbers are paired, so He Pingsheng's opponent in the first round should be number 999.

Combined with the fact that Yun Zhongzi had forcibly looked at He Pingsheng's number token earlier.

Good fellow.

The intentions of Kunwu Mountain were self-evident.

He Pingsheng's mouth hung wide open.

"Junior Nephew He..." Xi Qingsheng stared at He Pingsheng and said: "This seems... to be aimed at you!"

"Hehehe..." Yun Zhongzi didn't feel anything was wrong, but chuckled, staring at He Pingsheng, and said: "Kid, your luck is bad!"

"Nothing to be done, we just want to give the Red Lotus Immortal Valley a little color to see, so you know not to think that just because you have two people who passed the four basic stages, you can ride on the heads of our Kunwu Mountain and show off!"

"Hmph... If you are sensible, you had better surrender in advance!"

Yun Zhongzi originally wanted to use Xi Qingsheng as a target, but later discovered that He Pingsheng only had the cultivation of the ninth layer of the Human Immortal stage, so wouldn't it be even simpler to target the one with lower cultivation?

Naturally, one should pick a soft persimmon to squeeze!

"Why do you want to acquire this 999 token?" Someone stood in front of the stall and asked Yun Zhongzi.

Yun Zhongzi said: "We think the number 999 is auspicious, just right for the great number of our Immortal Sect. Do you have one?"

That person said: "What are you trading with?"

Yun Zhongzi said: "I have a 1377 token here, take it. Additionally, I will give you one thousand low-tier immortal crystals, how about it?"

"However, you must have this 999 token first!"

Yun Zhongzi looked at the other party.

That cultivator said: "I definitely have one!"

While speaking, that cultivator actually took out a token engraved with the number 999.

"But... one thousand low-tier immortal crystals definitely won't do. For such an auspicious number, you have to give me more!"

He Pingsheng watched the negotiation between the two while scanning his gaze around.

He wanted to see the disciples of Kunwu Mountain.

But he didn't see any.

Only Yun Zhongzi was setting up the stall.

"How much do you want?" Yun Zhongzi said: "How about this, I'll give you two thousand!"

That cultivator was somewhat tempted.

After all, just changing a number token would get him two thousand.

Just as he was about to trade, He Pingsheng unexpectedly said: "I'll give three thousand!"

"Hmph..." Yun Zhongzi sneered immediately and said: "Even if you give eight thousand, it's useless. You are number one thousand, and he is 999. After you exchange, I'll just exchange with him for this one thousand number, isn't it the same? Idiot..."

He Pingsheng also sneered: "Who said I wanted to use the one thousand number to exchange? Can't my Junior Uncle Xi Qingsheng's number token be exchanged?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xi Qingsheng nodded immediately and said: "I'll exchange, I'll give you three thousand!"

Yun Zhongzi's face turned black to the extreme: "What do you mean?"

He Pingsheng said: "You already want my life, can't I raise your price?"

"If you must ask me what I mean, it's very simple!"

"I just want to save my life, is that wrong?"

"Ten thousand!" Yun Zhongzi gritted his teeth and said: "I'll offer ten thousand!"

He wanted to increase the price to scare He Pingsheng into retreating.

He Pingsheng, however, took out two mid-tier immortal crystals in one breath and placed them in front of him, saying: "Two mid-tier!"

"I'll offer ten!" In order to kill He Pingsheng, this Yun Zhongzi also used all his strength, throwing out ten mid-tier immortal crystals in one breath.

He Pingsheng didn't dawdle either, "Fifty!"

He believed that an Earth Immortal out and about should have at least fifty mid-tier ones on him.
