Chapter 970 The Competition Rules That Ling Wuyuan Did Not Care About
That's because there are more and more participants.

Since Ling Wuyuan and his companions successfully arrived at this super-large port city called [Xihai City],

Almost every moment, people from all directions arrive at [Sihai City].

Even though the participants only make up a small fraction of the total, it is still a considerable number.

Even disregarding the various [Divine Power Realm] participants, the number of those who reached the [Original Form Realm] increased by tens of thousands in a short period of time.

There are so many.

This surprised all the staff at the registration office.

after all.

In just a short period of time, the number of participants for this [Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament] has exceeded that of any previous tournament.

Especially after Chen Ye and the various important figures finished discussing the competition rules and prizes for the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament, and officially announced the list of prizes—enough to bankrupt a large force—the sheer amount of money attracted a surge in the number of participants. Faced with the allure of the enormous prizes and the promise of the personal attendance of the leaders of thirteen dominant forces, the actual number of applicants immediately increased dramatically, keeping the staff responsible for checking applicants' ages extremely busy…

"It's really lively..."

Walking on the streets.

Looking at the already crowded registration area with onlookers and applicants, Wu Yanlian sighed repeatedly through the [Gray Mist Mark] with a very serious expression: [I wonder how many rounds it will take for everyone to reach the finals with this number of participants...]

Xi Xianlan: I don't know.

[Xi Xianlan: Normally, it would probably take dozens or even hundreds of rounds.]

[Xi Xianlan: However, I feel that the organizers are unlikely to proceed with the competition in such a conventional manner; they will probably choose a more aggressive approach.]

[Xi Xianlan: For example, the kind of competition where most participants are eliminated in the first round...]

[Xi Xianlan: Otherwise, given the actual number of participants in this Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament, it will probably take a very long time to finish.]

However, Xi Xianlan, the senior sister, had just finished expressing her opinion.

Bai Jingshu, the second senior sister, immediately retorted.

Bai Jingshu: Not necessarily.

[Bai Jingshu: Due to its large scale, this Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament might be deliberately made into a long-term competition, requiring several months to determine the champion.]

[Bai Jingshu: After all, for the organizers of the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament, this is undoubtedly an excellent and extremely rare publicity opportunity, isn't it?]

[Bai Jingshu: As long as the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament continues for one more day, countless people's eyes will be focused on this place for one more day... The benefits involved in this whole affair will probably be far greater than imagined.]

That was a completely contradictory statement to Xi Xianlan's, yet it was also extremely reasonable and well-founded.

This sparked the interest of the others, who gradually joined in and shared their own views on the matter.

However, as the only contestant among them, Ling Wuyuan was the one who was the most indifferent to things.

He didn't care at all what kind of competition rules the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament would adopt.

Because he is strong enough.

So powerful that they don't need to care whether the rules of the game are in their favor, so powerful that they don't need to care how many rounds they have to play...

Bottom line.

Once he officially decided to participate in the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament, the scales of victory had completely tipped in his favor.

for this.

This gives Wu Yuan absolute confidence.

Therefore, he didn't care about those minor details at all.

Anyway, all he needs to do is win all the way.

The whole thing was that simple and straightforward.

His will and his power both told him this.

However, just as the group was strolling quietly through the streets, their clothing, or rather the sect emblems engraved on their [talismanic armor], became quite recognizable.

Walking along the way.

It's unclear how many people were all looking at them.

Especially Ling Wuyuan.

He benefited from being the only male member of the [Snow Moon Cloud Pavilion].

Once everyone recognizes the faction he belongs to, his exact name can be automatically and accurately identified, eliminating any possibility of misidentification...

It's as simple as answering a multiple-choice question, specifically a multiple-choice question with only one option.

However, although many people recognized his identity, no one dared to come and disturb him at this moment.

To put it bluntly, the difference in social status is there.

Within the Snow Moon Cloud Pavilion, the different colors and patterns of the sect emblems clearly demonstrate the differences in status and position among members.

therefore.

For those who know their stuff.

The mere presence of the sect emblem on Ling Wuyuan's [talisman] was enough to intimidate them and even deter most of the dissenters on the spot.

Essentially.

This situation is essentially the same as an ordinary person of humble origins who would never dare to openly challenge royalty and nobility.

In this regard.

Although he doesn't rely on his own status, Ling Wuyuan is completely uninterested in those who are intimidated by differences in status, treating them merely as background NPCs...

In short, along the way, although countless people recognized his identity, not a single person dared to stop him and Pei Yiman and the others.

As they strolled through the bustling streets until night fell, a group of guys stopped them, ignoring the onlookers' expressions of wanting to watch the drama unfold.

"You must be Ling Wuyuan?"

"I am Feng Hu'an from [Chasing Light Moon Island], and I am one of your opponents in the [Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament]. It is a pleasure to meet you here."

There was no provocation in his words; his tone was quite calm and indifferent, as if he were simply greeting someone.

In this regard.

Although she didn't really want to talk to strangers, out of politeness, Ling Wuyuan still chose to give a casual reply:
"Correct."

"I am Ling Wuyuan."

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

The other party immediately shook their head repeatedly and said:
"It's nothing, I just came over to say hello."

"Of course, I'm also a little curious about your actual level and cultivation level..."

"If I'm not mistaken, you seem to have already advanced to the [True Form Realm], haven't you??"

"Were you recently promoted?!"

Ling Wuyuan told the truth: "I was promoted just a few months ago."

"I see."

"I thought you would be participating at the [Divine Power Realm] level... but it seems I was wrong."

"However, this is fine too. As fellow cultivators of the [Original Realm], I look forward to sparring with you on the field..."
