Chapter 786: Rule change

"The fourth round is critical, but our points..."

Nan Qiqi looked at He Ping and began to discuss it with a cheerful smile.

This time she did not bring a maid; she had been scared after being betrayed by her maid last time.

Of course, it is said that those four maids were all executed.

The Cultivation World is just that cruel.

"Biyun Xianzi Qiqi!" He Ping said, "The rules for this fourth round haven't been released yet. Isn't it too early for us to discuss the fourth round?"

He Ping did not want to participate in the fourth round!

He wanted to find an excuse to refuse Nan Qiqi.

After all, with his current points, regardless of the outcome of the fourth round, he could steadily remain in the top thirty.

The group points were the same.

However, He Ping hadn't thought of a perfect reason to tell Nan Qiqi that he wouldn't participate in the fourth round.

"Hi..." Nan Qiqi said, "The rules are actually about the same every session, just those few!"

"First, the prodigies enter that Great Thousand World and begin to fight!"

"For every person killed, or every person forced to leave, one can obtain a jade tablet!"

"In the end, whoever obtains the most jade tablets will have a higher ranking!"

"In the end, it will still take the top one hundred!"

"Oh!" He Ping nodded, "Is there no bonus for this round?"

"Of course there is!" Nan Qiqi said, "In this Great Thousand World, there are five stone steles!"

"Whoever can ascend the stone stele in the end can also accumulate an additional hundred points!"

"One can imagine that the competition in front of these stone steles will naturally be the most intense."

"By the way, the key is that everyone has a life-saving tablet. If you encounter unknown danger, or are about to be killed by other prodigies, you can crush the life-saving tablet, and in this way, you can be instantly teleported out of this Great Thousand World!"

"Of course, those who crush the life-saving tablet and come out get no points!"

Once explained this way, He Ping understood.

He didn't really want to participate in the fourth round and was originally looking for a suitable reason. Now it was fine; with something like a life-saving tablet, he didn't have to struggle.

After I go in, I'll just crush the life-saving tablet and come out instantly, saying I encountered danger.

Then...

Wouldn't everything be settled?

However!

Just as He Ping and Nan Qiqi were discussing these things, Dalun Mingwang arrived.

"Yo..." After Dalun Mingwang saw Nan Qiqi, she actually said with a hint of sourness, "A lone man and a lone woman in the same room... are you two chatting?"

Nan Qiqi's face turned red immediately.

He Ping, however, was very calm and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Biyun Xianzi Qiqi admires my Senior Brother Wang, not me!"

"Oh!" Dalun Mingwang walked to a chair nearby and sat down, saying, "You two come over. I have some bad news to tell you!"

"No... there should be two!"

"Bad news?" Nan Qiqi hurried over and stood respectfully in front of Dalun Mingwang, "Please enlighten us, Senior!"

He Ping followed closely behind.

Dalun Mingwang didn't know where she got a cup of spirit tea, and while drinking it slowly, she crossed her slender legs and said, "The first one is, the combat power test for the fourth round has changed its rules this time!"

"During combat, the use of magic treasures is not allowed, whether they are offensive magic treasures or defensive ones!"

"Moreover, you cannot bring any of your magic treasures into this Great Thousand World!"

Speaking of this, He Ping and Nan Qiqi had no objections.

After all, if it's not allowed to be brought, then everyone is not allowed to bring it; that must be to avoid more casualties!

If one only relies on bare hands and divine abilities, there should be fewer deaths.

As a result, Dalun Mingwang added another sentence: "This time, all prodigies will no longer possess life-saving tablets!"

"What?" This time Nan Qiqi couldn't remain calm.

No life-saving tablets?

He Ping also frowned slightly: He had just thought it was to protect the prodigies, which is why they weren't allowed to bring offensive or defensive magic treasures. Now it seems that wasn't it; they didn't even have life-saving tablets.

What does this mean?

He Ping thought carefully again, and his face turned dark immediately, saying, "Not good... this is targeting me!"

"That's right, it is targeting you!" Dalun Mingwang said, "First, that turtle shell you use to save your life cannot be brought in!"

"Second, without a life-saving tablet, even if someone schemes against you, you have no way to escape and can only fight hard!"

"So... this is already self-evident!"

"I have no way either!" Dalun Mingwang said helplessly, "The rules were proposed by the Phoenix Clan, and in the end, everyone voted by a show of hands. Most Demon Emperors agreed. Even if I opposed it, it would be useless!"

"Moreover, these rules have already been passed!"

"Then I am sorry!" He Ping bowed to Nan Qiqi and said, "You also know that I still have a 【Soul-Chaining Curse Talisman】 on me. If I were to fall in this Mystic Realm, that would truly be death. For the sake of safety, I refuse to participate in this round!"

"However, Biyun Xianzi Qiqi, rest assured, with my current results, regardless of anything else, I am qualified to go to the Heavenly Stele!"

"You are thinking too much!" Dalun Mingwang continued, "There was another clause in the rules just announced: if you do not participate in the fourth round's combat power trial, all previously obtained points will be cleared!"

He Ping was so angry he laughed: "Good fellow... is this forcing me to enter the Great Thousand World?"

"Yes!" Dalun Mingwang said, "You can choose not to go, but even if you don't go, I estimate that when this Stone Platform Assembly ends, they will still find trouble for you!"

"Because... your Dao companion Qiao Huizhu has already ascended, and they no longer have any concerns!"

There was silence in the great hall.

Nan Qiqi was completely at a loss for words.

He Ping also frowned.

He didn't think for too long before nodding and saying, "Fine... I would like to see exactly which people want my life?"

"Want to kill me?"

"Fine!"

"I, He Ping, am not afraid!"

Since it's a scheme either way, let's go take a look!

"There is a second rule!" Dalun Mingwang stared at He Ping and said, "The rule for the fifth round's stone platform ladder climbing has also changed..."

"Of course, this rule is relatively simple. The simple climbing rule cannot be changed. What was changed is the rule for the wall-breaker!"

"In the past, you could find anyone, as long as you could find a wall-breaker of the Mahayana Emperor Realm, it would work!"

"But now... this rule has changed. The wall-breaker must be of the same clan as the prodigy participating in the climb!"

What does that mean?

Very simple!

It means that when He Ping wants to climb high and look for a wall-breaker, he must find a human.

If there is no human wall-breaker, then you are not allowed to climb the ladder!

"Originally, I wanted to be your wall-breaker, but now, that won't work either!" Dalun Mingwang said helplessly.

"It doesn't matter!" After thinking for a while, He Ping shook his head, "Let's get through the fourth round first!" ===== CHAPTER 787 =====
