Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Add to that the cultivators from beyond the heavens, and it becomes even more complicated.

Therefore, in order to coordinate the matches, Ye Liuyun and the others had no choice but to redefine these chaotic realms in the simplest way.

This first test, which is used to determine their cultivation level, is the entrance test.

The current test is simply one to twelve stars. These twelve stars were created by Lin Qingyou. In short, regardless of their previous realm, as long as they pass the first test, they will be given a new level of strength.

The competition will be based primarily on this newly defined realm.

"I see that most of you have arrived. Time is limited, so in order to start the competition on time, I will not wait for those who have not yet arrived." Ye Liuyun stood up and interrupted the two cultivators who were talking.

When Ye Liuyun spoke, both the human and demon races immediately fell silent.

After they all quieted down, Ye Liuyun began to speak.

"Everyone, let me tell you something important first. Some of the seniors from the extraterrestrial war have already started fighting against the old monsters in the three forbidden areas. They want to inflict as much damage as possible on the forbidden areas for our future generations of humans and demons. Come, let's drink this cup to our seniors." Ye Liuyun picked up the wine cup on the table and said in a deep voice.

The once lively venue fell silent after hearing Ye Liuyun's words. After a moment of sadness, the lords of the holy lands and the patriarchs of the demon race immediately raised their wine cups and drank a cup of wine.

Those cultivators from beyond the heavens followed suit.

After finishing the cup of wine, the Dragon Emperor asked the question.

"Lord Ye, can the seniors eliminate those guys in the forbidden area? And why didn't we know about this?"

Ye Liuyun definitely needs to explain.

"To prevent word from getting out, we discussed this matter in private. You should understand that those old monsters in the forbidden area have eyes and ears outside. If too many people know about it, it will be easy for it to leak out. Even those experts at the eighth level of the Divine Path don't know about this. Only experts at the ninth level of the Divine Path know about it."

Ye Liuyun and his team did an excellent job of keeping things secret this time.

Because if they detect it in advance, they will definitely make preparations to deal with it. Only a surprise attack can achieve the best results.

The demon race experts and the human race experts exchanged glances. They could tell from each other's eyes that the other was unaware of the matter, which meant that Ye Liuyun had not shown favoritism towards either side.

The demon race, in particular, had an even greater appreciation for Ye Liuyun's character.

After Ye Liuyun finished speaking, he began to distribute the rules and requirements of the competition to everyone. Ye Liuyun treated everyone equally in this regard, and did not tell them in advance, but waited until now to announce it, in order to prevent them from preparing in advance.

"This? Redefining cultivation realms?" The cultivators present were stunned when they saw this.

Chapter 826 The Test of Success

Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Ye Liuyun quickly explained.

"Everyone, because the scope of this competition between the two races is too large, let's not talk about the human race and the demon race outside the heavens. Just talking about the human race on our Burial God Star, the cultivation systems of different continents are also different. This redefinition of realms is also to make it easier to match opponents in the competition."

After Ye Liuyun explained it this way, the powerful demons and humans present finally understood.

"I see. If that's the case, then we have no objections. Lord Ye, should we begin the first qualifying assessment?" a cultivator asked.

Ye Liuyun nodded.

"Well, I see that you all don't have much time to chat, so let's get started. I'm also a participant, so I need to go to the competition space. I'll leave this to Elder Xue Qingwu of the Immortal Realm. If you have any questions, you can ask her." Ye Liuyun stood up and said.

These words startled many cultivators present, especially the powerful figures from beyond the heavens.

"What? Lord Ye is also a contestant?" They were quite astonished. In their eyes, a big figure like Ye Liuyun should be a senior powerhouse.

Some of the extraterrestrial cultivators had doubts, and naturally, some who knew the facts spoke up to explain.

"Haha, fellow Daoist from outer space, don't be fooled by the high status of Lord Ye, she is actually less than two thousand years old."

These words were quite frightening, leaving these Nirvana cultivators from outer space completely dumbfounded.

Ye Liuyun immediately notified the cultivators from the Immortal Realm who were going to participate in the competition. After receiving the news, they all got up and came to Ye Liuyun's side. What they saw made everyone dumbfounded, because many of the high-ranking members of the Immortal Realm were going to participate in this duel.

Among them, there are quite a few cultivators whose cultivation level is above the Life and Death Realm.

"Heavens! These are all cultivators from the Immortal Realm who are going to participate in the duel. Their cultivation levels are too high. Any one of them is much stronger than me."

Soon, to everyone's astonishment, the team from the Immortal Realm left the venue and headed to the space where they would participate in the assessment.

Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue flew at the front, with Ye Fei and Ye Qingxue following on either side.

This means a family of four is competing on the same stage. As for whether they will be in the same match, that depends on the new ranking.

"Qingxue, why haven't you broken through to the Nirvana Realm yet? You should have broken through by now, right?" Ye Liuyun asked.

Ye Qingxue chuckled.

"Mom, don't worry about me. My situation is a bit special. I plan to suppress my progress until I break through to the Celestial Realm level all at once before attempting another breakthrough," Ye Qingxue replied.

Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes.

"Hey, you want to surpass your mother in one go? By the way, Aoxue, you've been at the peak of the Thunder Tribulation Realm for quite some time now, why haven't you broken through to the next level?" Ye Liuyun asked Lin Aoxue again.

Lin Aoxue chuckled in return.

"My situation is probably similar to Qingxue's."

Seeing that the mother and daughter were speaking in riddles, Ye Liuyun didn't bother to ask any more questions. They quickly passed through the passage into the competition space and landed on the platform where the human race gathered.

When the human cultivators waiting to participate in the competition saw the participants from the Immortal Realm of Longevity arrive, those who recognized Ye Liuyun bowed and greeted him.

"Greetings, Lord Ye!" the cultivators of Burial God Star shouted in unison.

This shocked the cultivators from outer space. They hadn't expected that such a prestigious figure from their human race would be participating in the competition.

"Lord Ye, no way, could this be Lord Ye from the Immortal Realm of Longevity? She, she's also a contestant?" The alien cultivators and cultivators from other continents were all confused.

Ye Liuyun returned the greetings to everyone, showing no airs of a lord of a holy land.

Everyone made way for Ye Liuyun and the others to get to the front.

As the group from the Immortal Realm of Immortality arrived at their destination, Xue Qingwu made her announcement.

"I hereby declare that the inter-race competition officially begins. The first stage is the qualifying rounds. Only cultivators from both races who have passed through this gate to enter the venue are qualified to participate in the subsequent matches," Xue Qingwu announced.

Although she was not in the competition space, her voice carried throughout the competition space when she spoke.

Xue Qingwu definitely needs to explain the competition requirements and rules, as well as the things they need to pay attention to, to them.

Everyone began to listen carefully to Xue Qingwu's explanation of the first round of the competition. When they learned that there would be a competition level in the first round, everyone was quite confused.

Looking at the bewildered expressions on the faces of these cultivators, Ye Liuyun knew they were all confused, but this was a normal reaction.

Xue Qingwu spent nearly ten minutes explaining the requirements for the first level. As for the other requirements, there were too many to explain here, since most of the people present would be stopped here anyway.

"Alright, the explanation of the first level is finished. We can begin now," Xue Qingwu announced.

After Xue Qingwu finished speaking, neither the demon race nor the human race cultivators immediately went up. They all looked at the cultivators of the Longevity Immortal Realm, while the demon race focused their attention on the Black Bull, since everyone knew that the Black Bull was also in the Longevity Immortal Realm.

The Immortal Realm was the only one present who knew the rules in advance; there was nothing they could do about it—that was the organizer's privilege.

"Eh? Venerable Master Ye, could you please have a cultivator from your Immortal Realm demonstrate how this test is conducted?" a cultivator suggested.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

"Alright, there's nothing special about it. Aoxue, just be a contestant who goes in," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

Lin Aoxue was quite direct. She walked straight to the main entrance and placed her hand on the light screen under the watchful eyes of everyone. Immediately, a power of law emanated from the light screen and flowed into Lin Aoxue's body.

The next moment, golden stars began to light up above Lin Aoxue's head, and the number of stars quickly increased to twelve before stopping.

These twelve stars represent Lin Aoxue's current competitive strength. It's not just about cultivation level, but current realm has a high weight. Lin Aoxue is at the peak of the Thunder Tribulation Realm, so she starts with ten stars when evaluated. As for eleven to twelve stars, it depends on each person's potential and aptitude.

In other words, cultivators who can reach ten stars or above are basically at the same level, but even within the same level, there are often differences in combat power.

After Lin Aoxue finished her test, a clear, cold female voice rang out in the sky.

"The Immortal Realm of Immortality: Lin Aoxue's Twelve-Star Realm".

"This? Twelve stars, that's the highest level. Is the starting point really this exaggerated?" Many cultivators were dumbfounded.

These participants can't just come whenever they want. Before entering, they have to register and leave their identity information, which will be entered into the array hub that controls the space of the competition.

Lin Aoxue's ranking at the twelfth-star level caused the powerful figures on the demon race's side to become extremely solemn, as they had already reviewed the ranking rules.

The twelve stars are currently the strongest.

"This is troublesome. I wonder if any of our demon race members are young enough to reach level twelve. Otherwise, we might have to give up first place to the humans." The demon race experts whispered among themselves.

The demon race is already losing to the human race before the competition even starts; they certainly can't be happy about that.

After receiving her ranking, Lin Aoxue turned around and glanced at Ye Liuyun and the others before walking through the portal into the first round of the competition venue. At this moment, Lin Aoxue was the only person in the venue.

"Alright, everyone, you see? It's that simple. To enter this place, you need at least one star in your cultivation level. This level is related to your current cultivation and potential. This gate in our Immortal Realm, used for level determination, is meticulously crafted. As long as you have cultivated diligently enough and have sufficient strength, you can enter. If you cannot be determined, it means you are not yet qualified to participate in this conference. Alright, we'll go in now. You don't need to go through each gate one by one. Just find an empty spot and touch the barrier on the gate," Ye Liuyun said.

After speaking, Ye Liuyun led his two daughters, along with other powerful figures from the Immortal Realm of Longevity, toward the gate. They had all gone in the same group, and he then gave a demonstration to everyone.

The Immortal Realm of Longevity did not send a particularly large number of people this time, only fifty in total. Apart from Ye Liuyun and his two daughters, the rest of these fifty people were at least at the Life and Death Realm or above, such as Yan Yu and Chen Yao, both at the Reincarnation Realm.

Everyone in the Immortal Realm exchanged glances, then placed their hands on the barrier.

On this side, the power of the gate began to test their cultivation level and aptitude. After the test was completed, stars began to light up above their heads.

Yan Yu and Chen Yao are in the second tier of cultivation among the group from the Immortal Realm of Immortality. In addition, neither of them has an ordinary physique, so they jumped to eleven stars in one go. Currently, it is set that nine stars and above is a competition area.

"This?" As the cultivators of the Immortal Realm finished their gathering.

Everyone was stunned again.

Because among the people from the Immortal Realm, apart from Ye Liuyun, the rest of them are all above ten stars.

As for Ye Liuyun, he is ranked as a nine-star.

"Hehe, as expected, the thing Master came up with can also detect physical cultivation, it's pretty much the same," Ye Liuyun laughed.

However, those cultivators who knew Ye Liuyun's abilities felt that Ye Liuyun's level was too low. They thought Ye Liuyun should at least be at the tenth star.

"Alright, everyone, we're in trouble now. You'd better hurry up too, because there are only 10,000 spots available," Ye Liuyun reminded them.

After giving his reminder, Ye Liuyun led everyone from the Immortal Realm of Longevity into the room.

The other cultivators also realized that there was nothing special about it, so the geniuses from the holy lands flew over, took a spot, and placed their hands on the light screen.

Most of the top geniuses in the Holy Land who are of the right age can currently reach ten stars or above, and some can even reach eleven stars, but Lin Aoxue is currently the only one who wants to reach twelve stars.

Furthermore, not all Nirvana cultivators can enter. If a Nirvana cultivator cannot reach the level of nine stars or above, then they are not qualified to participate.

"How is this possible? I am a cultivator at the Yin-Yang Realm, why can't I get in?" A cultivator from a holy land was devastated. In other words, he had the Nirvana Realm, but the laws deemed his strength insufficient to participate in this conference.

Ye Liuyun and the others arranged it this way: if the combat power requirement for participating in the Nirvana Battlefield is 100-200, then in order to successfully qualify, Nirvana cultivators must reach 150 or above; those below 150 are considered unqualified.

However, this kind of disqualification prevents you from participating in the Nascent Soul stage, so you are simply turned away.

More and more cultivators were subsequently blocked outside the door. Once they couldn't get in, the power of this space would send them to another area, which was the spectator area. They could only be spectators, not players.

The cultivators who were sent to the viewing area, especially those with connections, were all extremely disappointed. Many of them had come with confidence, but they never expected that they wouldn't even be able to qualify.

"Why, why? I went through so much trouble to get to the Burial God Star, and I didn't even qualify." Some cultivators from beyond the heavens were even more disheartened.

Many cultivators present sighed deeply.

"Hey! Alright, fellow Daoist from beyond the heavens, don't you even look at how many spots there are? There are only ten thousand spots. We might be geniuses in our respective sects, but compared to the entire human race, we probably wouldn't even rank among the top. Being able to witness this duel between the two races is enough to make us feel fulfilled." Some cultivators were more open-minded.

This viewing arena is a place similar to a colosseum, but in a Chinese architectural style, divided into four levels. Cultivators who cannot qualify are directly teleported here.

As for Ye Liuyun and his group, they were also in a place similar to a gladiatorial arena, only this place was larger and had a wider field of vision. There was no battlefield here because this was the post-battle area. In front of them were eight high-definition mirrors, which could simultaneously broadcast the scenes of eight competition venues.

Since everyone is a cultivator, there's no need to know the exact location; you can simply use your divine sense to observe. Moreover, your divine sense can directly enter the viewing area through the mirror, making you feel like you're actually there.

Ye Liuyun and his group found a suitable seat and sat down. The stars above their heads would not disappear during the competition and would remain until the end of the competition.

"Oh dear, considering that I'm the lowest level in our Immortal Realm of Longevity, you'd better give way to me if you run into me," Ye Liuyun joked to the group.

The contestants from the Immortal Realm were left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Your Excellency, please stop belittling us. Everyone knows how capable you are."

Indeed, despite many of them having ten stars, if they were to actually encounter Ye Liuyun, they would definitely not be able to win.

Many of these people suffered greatly at Ye Liuyun's hands back then.

For example, Yin Tong, and Qin Hong, they are both there.

Most importantly, the Nirvana-level battlefield has few restrictions. This means you can use pills and any means necessary. As long as you can defeat the demon race, that's your skill.

In fact, Ye Liuyun wanted to impose some restrictions, but both the human and demon races disagreed. Their reason was that although the duel was just a friendly exchange, it should still be done with all one's might. If you have the ability to use an imperial weapon, you can use it too.

However, under normal circumstances, when a Nirvana-level cultivator uses an Emperor Weapon, you can't exert much power at all. They don't restrict you from using Emperor Weapons, but they set a requirement: you must use your own power to awaken the Emperor Weapon or Divine Artifact.

In that case, it would be better to use a magical artifact.

There are no restrictions on treasures or methods on any battlefield.
