"The third round is here! Now, for the rules. There are 25 sects participating and 128 combatants in the game, and this time, they each gain a specific rank!" Steve let his words sink into the crowd's minds before continuing. So far, those disqualified only got the ranks "top 512" and "top 256", but without a specific number. "Each team starts with points based on their performance in the first round. For every team you forced out of the competition, in any manner, you gain one point." Ken and Tiara…

*BOOM!* "What is going on?!" Steve shouted at the sudden explosion coming from the sky above them, "Wait, the two combatants are dead!" He finally noticed when he shifted his focus back to the arena. "Serene Lotus Sect! Elders have the right to save their disciples!" An old man shouted in anger as he leaped to the sky, his clothes seemed disheveled. "I judged your attack as dangerous to my sect's disciple, so I had to prevent it. I'm sorry it caused the death of your disciples, it's a shame they were…

Alaric, eyeing a fellow disciple's prowess on the projection, turned to Ken. "Not interested in these fights?" Ken, glancing at the scene, shrugged. "The ones I seek aren't among the displayed." "What do you mean? All impressive fits are displayed, nobody in that age group can hide from those high-ranked formations," Alaric said, surprised. "I'm not interested in impressive fits." Before Alaric could satiate his curiosity regarding Ken's words, Steve shouted again, marking that the short break was…

In the hours of the battle royale, Ken sat on the back of a dolphin he had paid to remain behind and serve as his seat, all while beasts came with the corpses of different disciples, creating a red trail in the water behind them. He did notice that many of them never returned, meaning they died, but he never even thought about caring. Perhaps his dolphin helped him spread the word about his business or maybe more sea beasts were drawn to the scent of the blood he had poured into the lake around him,…

As soon as Steve finished his sentence, everyone was teleported to different places across the valley randomly. Ken only had to glance around him to find out he was with three women wearing green, Tiara included. "Junior Brother, we can cooperate to have a numerical advantage," The two girls he did not know cupped their fists in front of him. "Sure, just stay near us and survive," Ken nodded. He did not mind helping his sect members stay alive, and it'd reflect negatively on his reputation if he…

"Let's go," Ken said and looked at his teammates behind him. Three of them were in perfect condition, while the fourth seemed somewhat haggard. "Team Leader," George started using the same way to refer to Ken as Alaric, "I help you guys out by being your fifth, right? Can you please reward me with some Qi Stones for this favor?" He asked nervously. "Did you get scammed by that woman?" Ken asked with a smile. "I wouldn't say "scammed", I'm sure she was caught up in something and couldn't make it.…

"What kind of gadgets do you think they are going to sell?" Alaric asked the group as they walked toward the fifth-highest mountain around the valley, belonging to the fifth strongest sect of the continent. "There will probably be goggles that you can put on your eyes, and it'd let you see long distances," Ken said, remembering the binoculars from Earth. "That makes sense, that senior also mentioned something like that. But what about the other stuff?" "We will see, what's the point in guessing…

"We are here!" George called, making the other four cease their meditation and get up. The trip took around 2 days without any events worth mentioning; they just flew the whole time and busied themselves with meditation and cultivation. Getting up from the floor, they walked to the airship's railing and looked outside, seeing a valley large enough to contain millions. It was apparent that human hands reshaped it, making it more convenient for many spectators to find a place to sit down. In the center…

"Good. Top inner disciples and core disciples who do not participate can expect a penalty and having their status revoked." The elder gave one last announcement, adding a layer of threat against deserters. The words hung heavy in the air as the elder's warning echoed through the courtyard. The disciples exchanged wary glances, the gravity of the situation was clear. The pressure to represent the sect was no light burden, and it carried consequences that none of them were willing to bear. "They take…

Ken's group had already returned to the sect, leaving behind an instruction for George to appear in front of them within 2 weeks; the time when the airships would start the trip to the competition. The Martial Arts Summit was held in the same place every fifty years, ironically, in a valley north of the Peaceful Demon Sect. 'Intent, huh. I've been waiting to be at the fifth stage before trying to cultivate one, but now it's time to stop delaying it,' Ken thought to himself as he produced a few…
