In Tianxing City, the once-in-a-century Star Picking Ceremony, the highlight of which—the "Battle for Island Ownership" for the twenty-four alien islands—has officially begun.
The event will be held on the tenth floor of the Sacred Mountain in Tianxing City.
The tenth floor has no residential areas, only a super large platform.
The platform was divided into more than a dozen arenas of equal size by a super magic array set up by Nascent Soul cultivators.
The surfaces of these arenas are made of some unknown material, and are incredibly hard. With the added protection of special magic arrays, they are even more difficult to destroy.
"The Star Palace will take out the twenty-four outer star islands and hold a battle for the island master."
"It looks like a selection exam for the Star Palace organization, doesn't it?"
At this moment, Qingfeng sat in his maple leaf carriage, scanning more than a dozen arenas with his divine sense.
Next to each of these arenas, there is a long wooden sign.
The wooden sign bore the name of the island, as well as the names of many monks.
For example, the sign on Kuixing Island lists the names of more than a dozen Core Formation cultivators of varying ages.
"Young master, there are so many competitors on Kui Xing Island."
Yanli and Yuanyao sat by the window, their brows slightly furrowed.
"That's natural. Kui Xing Island has two vacant island lord positions, and there's no original island lord to defend the arena. There must be quite a few Core Formation cultivators who want to give it a try."
Qingfeng explained.
However, there was another reason he didn't mention: Kuixing Island was in a strategically important location, and many forces had their eyes on the area.
Moreover, according to the intelligence sent back by the scimitar, the Anti-Star Alliance was clearly involved in this Star-Picking Tournament.
"So that's why the outer twenty-four star islands fell so quickly as soon as the Reverse Star Alliance started the war. It turns out that both the righteous and demonic paths have already begun to make preparations in secret."
Qingfeng thought to himself.
Then, he looked at the majestic high platform at the very front of the platform.
At this moment, three Nascent Soul cultivators appeared below the twin saint statues on the high platform.
"Look! It's an elder from the Star Palace!"
The many low-level cultivators who were watching the spectacle couldn't help but gasp in surprise when they saw the Nascent Soul expert on the high platform.
On the high platform, three Star Palace elders stood suspended in mid-air.
Although he did not deliberately release his pressure, the vast spiritual pressure of the Nascent Soul stage cultivator had already enveloped the entire platform like an invisible tide.
Among these three, the Nascent Soul cultivator in the middle was none other than Elder Jin Kui, a peak-level Nascent Soul cultivator.
Today he was wearing the unique silver-white robe of the Star Palace, embroidered with the stars of the heavens.
To his left was a beautiful woman dressed in star palace attire, her hair piled high, playing with a string of star beads in her hand.
To Jin Kui's right was a thin middle-aged man. A faint aura swirled around him, and all the low-level cultivators in his sights bowed their heads.
One is at the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm, and two are at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
"Young Master, to Elder Jin Kui's left is Elder Gui of the Star Palace, and to his right is Elder Sun."
These two, also known as the Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder, are the direct descendants of the Star Palace.
Wang Ning, wearing a veil, sat next to Qing Feng and began to introduce him.
"The Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder, aren't they the junior brothers and sisters of the Twin Saints?!"
Wen Siyue sat on the other side of Qingfeng and asked in surprise.
At this moment, all four women were inside Qingfeng's flower carriage.
They certainly didn't want to miss Tianxing City's once-in-a-century grand event.
Moreover, Qingfeng will also be competing for the island's mastership in the arena, and the girls will be admiring the charm of their beloved.
"quiet."
At this moment, Elder Sun of the Star Palace spoke softly, his voice not loud but clearly reaching the ears of every cultivator.
Instantly, the entire tenth floor fell silent.
"The Star-Picking Competition, the battle for island ownership, begins now."
The rules remain the same: those who register for the same island will be drawn into a duel, and the winner will advance.
The ultimate victor will become the new island lord, serving a term of one hundred years.
After Elder Sun finished speaking, Elder Gui, the woman on the left, raised her hand and waved it, and more than a dozen arenas lit up with spiritual light at the same time.
"Dear contestants, you may now proceed to the arena where you registered to draw lots."
The battle for island ownership will proceed according to the draw results.
Upon hearing that the draw had begun, all the Core Formation cultivators vying for the position of island lord went to their respective arenas to draw their opponents.
"Young master, it's time for us to draw lots!"
Siyue excitedly hugged Qingfeng's arm and shook it.
"Okay, look how impatient you are."
Qingfeng smiled and gently scratched Siyue's nose before stepping out of his maple leaf-themed car.
His figure stood out among the group of cultivators.
The reason is simple: the pink maple leaf float was too eye-catching.
The person who stepped out of the car was still a handsome young man dressed in a white robe and holding a folding fan.
This is a stark contrast to other Core Formation cultivators who have bizarre appearances.
"Look! That person looks like Qingfeng, the young master of the Qingyang Sect!"
"Young Master of Qingyang Sect? No wonder that car looked like that." "So it was that纨绔 (wán kù, a spoiled brat)."
"Mid-stage Core Formation cultivation, having a good father really is important."
"I'm envious. I also want a Nascent Soul father."
"No, I don't understand. Isn't he the young master of the Qingyang Sect? Why would he want to compete for the position of island lord? Will the Star Palace agree to that?"
"I don't know, but Hoshimiya didn't say we couldn't participate..."
The onlookers began to discuss among themselves.
As a result, once Qingfeng appeared, all the other cultivators vying for the island's ownership became mere bystanders.
There's nothing we can do; his reputation is too big for him.
Qingfeng walked to the arena with the Kui Xing Island sign and began drawing lots as instructed by the Star Palace steward.
It was called a lottery, but it was actually just casting a spell at a crystal ball.
The crystal ball will then "randomly" match you with an opponent, but whether it will secretly use underhanded tactics is anyone's guess.
"Qingfeng gets a bye on the Kuixing Island arena."
The Star Palace steward announced this and handed a jade tablet to Qingfeng.
"..."
Seeing Xinggong tampering with things without even trying to cover it up, Qingfeng's lips twitched involuntarily.
"That's not fair, he must have cheated."
"This must be a shady operation."
"A bye by the lot? What a coincidence! The Star Palace is blatantly favoring the young master of the Qingyang Sect."
"Shh! Quiet down! Are you out of your mind? Can't you see Elder Jin Kui watching from up there?"
As soon as the lottery results were announced, the surrounding cultivators immediately erupted in a commotion.
Many low-level cultivators lowered their voices and began to discuss it.
On the high platform, the three Star Palace elders remained expressionless, sitting in chairs below the statues of the two saints, looking down at the dozen or so arenas.
Beside the arena, the Core Formation cultivators who had registered to compete for the position of island master on Kui Xing Island reacted in various ways.
"The waters of Kui Xing Island are too deep for us rogue cultivators to wade through. Let's give up on this contest."
After speaking, an elderly rogue cultivator with a sallow complexion and dressed in hemp clothing turned around and walked directly toward the Star Palace's office.
He chose to give up the ring competition.
The other pair, who appeared to be brother and sister, exchanged a glance.
"Brother, Qingyang Sect is powerful, and Xing Palace's attitude is ambiguous. We can't win against them, and we might even get ourselves into trouble."
"Okay, then let's give up too."
Two more people also withdrew from the arena.
In a short time, four or five Core Formation cultivators chose to withdraw from the competition for Kui Xing Island.
Those who were either slightly less capable or had weak backgrounds, seeing that there was something fishy about the lottery results, simply withdrew in time, but the remaining people were all formidable characters.
