Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

"The venue for the Divine Sword Competition is located underground in the very center of Divine Sword City, beneath the Spirit Weapon Building... a magnificent stage capable of accommodating countless weapon refiners!"

"Hello everyone, I'm Xiaoyun, the top host of this year's Divine Sword Competition!"

A beautiful young woman with long gray hair, wearing extremely revealing clothes and heavy makeup walked into the Spirit Artifact Building.

Despite her seemingly young age, she is publicly portrayed as a forever fifteen-year-old beauty.

In fact, many viewers had seen her participate in the Divine Sword Competition as part of the Divine Sword Palace team decades ago.

Many people even speculate that the host, Xiaoyun, is a hidden demigod from the Shenxiao Sword Palace!

Xiaoyun said with a smile, "There are more than 300 teams participating in this year's Divine Sword Competition, which means it will be a grand event with more than a thousand people battling it out!"

"Besides the more than one hundred holy land teams from other cities, and the four great holy lands of Divine Sword City, there are also more than two hundred cobbled-together ragtag teams just to make up the numbers~~~~" 8

"The Divine Sword Tournament, as is customary, is a free-for-all. I wonder how many seconds these weak teams can last on the field?"

I heard Xiaoyun's voice explaining. 3

Countless comments flashed across the electronic screen in front of her.

"Xiaoyun, stop worrying about the weak teams, can you show us the team rosters from the four holy lands?"

"I really don't understand why the Holy Land would appoint a direct descendant of Shenzhou as captain. Could it be that the direct descendants of Shenzhou are really that strong?"

“In the past, the team captains of the major holy lands were almost all eighteen-core emperors, and the direct descendants of the Divine Continent should also be at about the same level, right?”

"I heard that it seems only the September Cherry Blossom Sword Court hasn't had any direct descendants from the Divine Continent join..."

"Well done, September Cherry Sword Court! I'm supporting September Cherry Sword Court in this tournament! I hope they don't suffer a crushing defeat!"

"Hey upstairs, don't say that while secretly betting that September Cherry Blossom Sword Court is the first of the elite clans to be eliminated!"

at the same time……

Xiaoyun also stepped into the elevator and took the observation elevator to the 100th basement floor of the Divine Sword City Spirit Weapon Building.

After pushing open the elevator, what comes into view is an extremely magnificent crystal castle, with the sky, the ground, and the surrounding walls all inlaid with crystals and diamonds.

At the very center of the castle stands a crystal courtyard that almost covers the entire underground area of ​​Divine Sword City.

This should have been an open, unobstructed terrain, but in reality... even an ordinary emperor, who could fly at full speed for several hours, would not be able to cross this arena.

Its footprint is considerable!

This incredibly beautiful natural landscape, a true miracle, has always been used by Divine Sword City as the venue for the Divine Sword Tournament!

of course……

Until the artifact Crystal awakens from its slumber.

Only then did the many weapon refiners of Divine Sword City realize that the entire wondrous underground landscape was created during the slumber of the divine artifact, Crystal.

Wow, so beautiful~~~~

"No matter how many times I watch it, I can't help but marvel at this natural battlefield!"

The female host, Xiaoyun, found the judges' seat and sat down.

At this moment, the seats in all directions are almost full.

After all, the team's opening ceremony will be held in a little while.

Soon, the first team emerged from behind the scenes... When the four village girls from a small city arrived, they became nervous upon seeing so many spectators.

Because they didn't know them, the host, Xiaoyun, only read their team name once and then skipped over it.

Soon, after nearly two hundred teams had taken the stage, it was the turn of the Holy Land's main team.

Accompanying the team members were a demigod instructor from the holy land.

Until only sixteen seats remained.

Xiaoyun then solemnly introduced: "Next up are the teams that made it to the top sixteen in the previous Divine Sword Competition... They have the right to choose their positions on the sand table in this year's Divine Sword Competition."

It's important to understand that a battle involving thousands of emperors is far too chaotic. If hundreds of emperors were to attack one person, even a demigod would not survive.

Therefore, such rules are also established in the Divine Sword Competition.

The sixteen seeded teams will be ranked from weakest to strongest and will choose their location in the Crystal Garden in order.

In addition, no seeded team can be adjacent to another seeded team. This greatly ensures the fighting strength of the seeded teams, so as to present a more exciting battle to the audience in the final stage.

Xiaoyun glanced at the list and said softly, "Please welcome the team members from the Third-Rank Holy Land, Hanmei Academy!"

"Keep up the good work, Hanmei Academy!!"

"The captains of this year's competition from Hanmei Academy have already successfully broken through to the Eighteenth Core Emperor level a month ago. They have the strength to compete for the top eight in this year's Holy Land Competition!"

"If Hanmei Academy makes it into the top sixteen for two consecutive years, I plan to send my daughter to Hanmei Academy to learn supernatural powers next year... Although the four holy lands of Shenjian City are better, our family simply cannot afford the price of learning supernatural powers there!"

Xiaoyun adjusted the remote control in her hand, and a 360-degree holographic screen projection appeared on the screen.

The captain of Hanmei Academy hesitated for a moment.

With a thought, she quickly decided to land at the edge of the Crystal Garden.

Logically speaking, corners are actually safer...

But she also didn't want stronger teams to land near them and block their way to the central area.

After choosing their landing point, the four team members from Hanmei Academy walked into the crowd.

However, the indifferent demeanor of the four of them clearly put them on a different level from the members of the other Holy Land teams.

Next, one after another, players from the third-grade holy land teams took the stage and chose their landing locations on the crystal sand table.

They almost reached a consensus and chose locations that were far apart.

Apart from the top 16, the positions of the other team members were randomly assigned, and they didn't even know where they would land.

and so……

They also secretly noted down the spawn locations of the seeded teams, hoping they wouldn't be too close to them.

Xiao Yun continued, "Alright, the Third-Rank Holy Land, You Shou, has also chosen the location for the sand table. Next... it's finally time for the Four Holy Lands, which everyone has been eagerly anticipating, to make their appearance!"

Upon hearing this, the audience erupted in a heated discussion.

Countless weapon refiners from smaller realms have traveled from afar just to witness the competition between the four holy lands!

As for those weak teams, without exception they will all become stepping stones for the four major teams!

Upon hearing the name of the Four Holy Lands...

Whether it was other teams or the Three Ranks Holy Land team, which was also a seeded team, everyone held their breath at this moment.

Since the Divine Sword Competition was established.

The champion of every Divine Sword Tournament is one of the four holy lands, without exception!

In the early stages, there were instances where all teams refrained from attacking each other, banded together for mutual support, and only joined forces to besiege members of the four holy land teams; however, after that extremely absurd and brainless match, the officials of Divine Sword City set up the Crystal Sand Table descent rule for the seeded players of the Holy Land Grand Tournament.

In this way...

Before those who wanted to join forces could find any aid teams, the four holy lands would most likely have already begun clearing the battlefield at an inhuman speed.

"Fourth place in the last Divine Sword Competition!"

"The undisputed overlord of swordsmanship, the Divine Firmament Sword Palace!"

"Ah!!!! It's Shenxiao Sword Breaking Palace!!! It was such a pity they lost in the last competition!"

"This year, they've heard they have a direct descendant of Shenzhou helping them out, but we're not team members, so we don't know the specifics yet..."

Under the expectant gaze of everyone…

Four girls dressed in dark green and white striped, hip-length sword robes walked out lightly; the hems of their skirts split into countless sword-blade-shaped ribbons, leaving behind a beautiful and suggestive view.

When everyone saw the beautiful girl with fiery red ingot-shaped hair and liquid flames flowing from her hair, they almost stopped breathing.

Her crimson eyes, like the blazing sun in the sky, contained a heat that no one could comprehend!

"She is..."

"From the Divine Continent, a direct descendant of the Heavenly Ring Deer Clan, Sunset Ring Deer Fan!"

"Rumor has it that she is one of the three most powerful figures in the modern China, possessing combat strength far beyond what ordinary people can imagine!"

"..."

The audience was stunned by her amazing aura...

But she still stubbornly insisted, "What? I don't think she's that strong! How could the captain of Shenxiao Sword Palace be chosen? What about the original first seat?!"

"Go, First Seat! Don't lose to this so-called 'Divine Continent's' direct descendants!"

The cheers of the audience could be heard.

The former captain of Shenxiao Zhejian Palace, who held the first seat, immediately revealed a bitter expression.

It's worth noting that she had also protested against the decision of Shenxiao Zhejian Palace and fought a battle with Lu Fan.

However, as an eighteen-core emperor, she was completely powerless against Lu Fan!

He noticed the dejected look on the first seat's face.

Beside her stood a petite girl, also dressed in a dark green and snow-white sword robe, over which was a fluffy dark green padded jacket. She looked rather cute and small, standing only 1.3 meters tall, and said indifferently with her hands in her pockets, "Little kid, what are you afraid of..."

"Those who are the direct descendants of the Divine Land will naturally surpass ordinary people from the very beginning of their awakening."

"However, highly talented weapon refiners often achieve great things later in life. As long as they have the opportunity to step into the fourth step of the Emperor realm, they can close the gap with the direct descendants of the Divine Continent."

"..."

"Your Highness Broken Blade..."

"I'm not you, how could I possibly become a fourth-step emperor?"

Upon hearing the coach's words, a bitter expression immediately appeared on the First Seat's face.

The fourth step Emperor, what an unattainable realm that is... Even in the entire Divine Sword City, only a handful of weapon refiners have achieved the fourth step Emperor!

Because once you break through to the fourth step of the Emperor...

There is hope of reaching the legendary realm of Divine Refiner!

Upon hearing this, Duanren Su Mei raised her beautiful, crescent-shaped eyebrows and said softly, "Don't worry..."

"If you kill more enemies than Lu Fan in this competition, I will introduce you to a demigod-level spiritual weapon!"

"what?"

"Is this really true?! Broken Blade as coach?!"

"A single glance is truly convincing..."

Upon hearing Duanren Moran's guarantee, the first seat of Shenxiao Zhejian Palace instantly became extremely excited.

Even a super demigod like Broken Blade has made such a promise, so she must find a way to surpass Lu Fan no matter what!

Afterwards, the captain of the Divine Firmament Sword Palace positioned the crystal sand table in a corner of the crystal arena; [The spiritual energy at the edge of the crystal arena will gradually dissipate. If they don't head towards the center, the spiritual energy of the weapon refiners in the outer area will be completely absorbed, thus eliminating them.]

This combat mode is actually similar to the bloodline trial of the Northern Deer Clan.

But the number of people in this melee is much denser than in the bloodline trial before!

"..."

The female host, Xiaoyun, then announced, "Next, please welcome the third-place winner of last year's Divine Sword Competition, Fanxing Tianmenguan!"

The weapon refiners of the Starry Sky Gate Pass wore slightly eerie, dark purple slit cheongsams. The skirts, embroidered with countless stars, barely covered their hips, adding a touch of allure to their appearance.

"I heard that the captain of this year's Starry Sky Gate Pass has already been changed."

"She is……"

"A direct descendant of the Purple Calamity Yu family..."

"The Ghostly Consort, Yu Hua!"

Shortly after……

Before everyone appeared a delicate young girl with long black hair.
