C1657 The Competition Begins
Ao Lingchen and the rest were also divided into groups. They were quite lucky that they were all on different rings. At least before the ring master battle, they would not encounter each other and would not fight with their fellow disciples.
Although in the end, if the other disciples of Saint Asura Sect had the chance to enter the final competition, they would still have a chance to fight each other.
However, if they could avoid meeting each other at the beginning, Ao Lingchen felt that this would be a better result.
At least, he didn't need to eliminate his fellow disciples of the Saint Asura Sect before the final match.
The rest of the people from the Saint Asura Sect heaved a sigh of relief when they didn't fight in the same ring as Ao Lingchen.
Especially Ling Luo, Shi Gaangyuan, and the others.
Although there were top geniuses from other sects in the drawing of lots in the ring, they also needed to fight hard.
However, compared to fighting bitterly with the Heavenly Pride from other sects, they felt that they had no chance against Ao Lingchen.
There was a saying in their hearts, and it was true that they were filled with fear towards Ao Lingchen. They felt that if they fought him, the more they lost, the less they would win. There was not much hope for them.
On the contrary, if they were to fight against someone else, they felt that there was a high chance of them winning.
Some were excited, while others were disappointed.
When the people of Haotian Saint Land saw that their Heavenly Pride didn't meet Ao Lingchen, they were very disappointed.
What they were looking forward to the most right now was their holy land's Heavenly Pride killing this bloody executioner in a domineering manner. They wanted to eliminate this murderer and leave him in this tragic arena forever. This was what they wanted to see the most.
What was different from the thoughts of the surrounding people was that Ao Lingchen was very calm at this moment.
The result of the draw came out, and Ao Lingchen got the third arena.
What he needed to do next was to stand out from the third ring and become the arena master, and then advance to the next round of battles.
It had to be said that the cruelty of the Sacred Land competition made people sigh.
Among the 100 people participating in the arena battles, in the end, only a small number of ten arena masters could advance. As for the others, nearly 90% of them would be directly eliminated in this round.
The elimination rate was as high as 90%. It could be seen how intense the competition was.
However, regarding any Heavenly Pride that wanted to fight for the championship, they did not care about the opponents they would face in the future.
This was because the path of the Heavenly Pride was a path of blood and slaughter that would allow one to reach the top of the mountain by stepping on countless Supreme Heavenly Pride.
In this path of blood, there were bound to be countless existences that had the strength to compete with him. If he wanted to stand at the top, he would have to defeat all those who stood in his way and tried to compete with him.
Therefore, Ao Lingchen didn't pay any attention to the intensity of the battle in the arena.
He also did not pay too much attention to the opponents he was going to face next.
Because no matter who his opponent was, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to defeat all of them and become the strongest one.
Ao Lingchen's goal wasn't just the top ten of the Sacred Land Competition. His goal was to become the champion who stood at the peak of the competition.
Therefore, all the experts would be his opponent and goal.
To him, it didn't make much of a difference whether he encountered them in advance or later.
If he had to say that there was a difference, then perhaps the further he encountered the Supreme Heavenly Pride, the easier it would be for him.
However, he didn't think that it was necessary. A true expert needed to tread on a rain of blood and foul winds, stepping on the rise of countless Supreme Heavenly Pride. One of them would become famous, and killing one would be a crime. Killing a hundred would be fierce, and killing ten thousand would be a heroic act.
His path of becoming an expert would be described with blood. He would use corpses and life to lay the foundation.
When the groupings were just divided, Ao Lingchen could be said to be the one who received the most attention.
Almost all the top experts, the emperors of the various sects, and most of the people in Haotian Saint Land were focused on him, making him the most popular and the most eye-catching person.
It couldn't be helped. What happened to Ao Lingchen during this period of time had indeed made him qualified to be the person who received the most attention.
He had risen up in the secret realm and killed eight of the ten great Heavenly Prides in Haotian Saint Land. It could be said that he had eliminated the geniuses of this generation in Haotian Saint Land in the future.
If it wasn't for the fact that there were still two seedlings left, perhaps this generation of Haotian Saint Land would really be reduced to an era of darkness.
Even so, it was still a dark era for Haotian Saint Land.
Apart from that, Ao Lingchen had also caused a huge storm not long ago.
An Emperor had fallen because of him. This caused him to fall into the eyes of the top emperors of the various sects. All the experts were curious about him, and they all wanted to know what was so special about him. He had actually attracted an emperor to attack him, and in the end, he had died miserably in the forest. They wanted to know what was so amazing about him that Sword Emperor Wusheng would dare to offend the Haotian Saint Land's Saint Lord. He wanted to protect him, and he didn't even hesitate to start a sect war.
To these emperors, they also understood that Ao Lingchen was just the fuse. The one who caused everything to turn into such a terrible storm... In fact, it was a contest between sovereigns and sects.
He could be said to be lying on the ground with a spear.
But at the same time, being able to become the fuse was not simple at all. Not everyone was qualified to become the fuse of the great war between emperors.
All sorts of changes had also allowed Ao Lingchen to be known by the emperors in the shortest amount of time. There were even many emperors who were even more curious about Ao Lingchen's information, wanting to know his past.
The experts of Haotian Saint Land swept a cold glance at Ao Lingchen. The Emperor in charge of the great competition also spoke in a deep voice.
"The ten people from the first stage, step onto the stage. You will draw lots in this box, draw out the names of the participants, and fight in pairs. The one who stands at the end will become the arena master and advance to the next stage."
A vigorous and loud voice spread across the entire square. As the Emperor of Haotian Saint Land spoke, a black box that could not be seen appeared in his hand.
After briefly explaining the rules, the Sovereign of Haotian Saint Land also started to organize the lots.
Before the competition began, the various sects already knew the rules. Everyone already knew the rules in their hearts, so they naturally would not explain it in a long time.
Besides, even if they said it, there wouldn't be many people who would be willing to listen.
One figure after another leaped onto the stage under the gazes of everyone.
In the first stage of the competition, there were no disciples of the Saint Asura Sect or the disciples of the Haotian Saint Land.
However, even so, it didn't affect their mood to watch the battle.
As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.
Every single person on this stage could be his next powerful enemy. Therefore, they first observed the other party's strength and prepared to be safe. There seemed to be nothing wrong with this.
On the contrary, if they were too arrogant, they might not necessarily fail miserably in an easy task.
The first round of drawing lots for the Sacred Land competition also ended very quickly. The first round of battles also began under the gazes of everyone.
