Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 925: Chapter 925: Won’t Survive Three Palms

In the spectator seats of the Wind Shattering Hall, Xiao Yi watched the battle on the Martial Arts Arena.

At this moment, the Eldest Prince was overpowering his opponent.

Xiao Yi was even one hundred percent sure that in this competition, the Eldest Prince would ultimately emerge victorious.

Meanwhile, Senior Li He was explaining the rules and situation of the Star Swapping Day competition to him.

At the beginning of the Star Swapping Day, the City Lord’s Mansion did not announce the rules.

This is because the rules have been the same for each previous Star Swapping Day, and every martial artist within Star Swapping City knew them.

The only ones unaware of the rules were the group coming from the Wind Saint Territory.

Previously, Senior Li He had already explained the rules to everyone.

Thus, the only one left unaware of the rules was Xiao Yi.

Senior Li He briefly explained, and Xiao Yi understood.

Every three years, an anomaly occurs in Star Swapping City.

The starlight in the sky surges, exceedingly brilliant, known as the Star Swapping Day.

At a specific hour, 36 rays of starlight descend from the sky.

Martial artists who bathe in them can gain immense opportunities, varying in degree, from a significant increase in cultivation to soaring to the heavens for the lucky ones.

rays of starlight, 36 people to bathe in them.

This means, there are only 36 spots available.

Among these 36 spots, apart from the City Lord’s Mansion and the Wind Shattering Hall each having two, and the Wang Family, Mo Family, and Lvu Family each having one, totaling 7,

the remaining 29 spots are what the heavenly talents of the entire Star Swapping City compete for.

However, since those 7 predetermined spots can be given away,

usually, those confident in their own strength will let them go and then seek to win a spot in the competition.

For instance, Wang Xinghe gives his spot to his brother, the Second Young Master of the Wang Family, during each edition of the Star Swapping Day.

Therefore, whether win or lose, the Second Young Master of the Wang Family is guaranteed the chance to bathe in the starlight.

Similarly, Lvu Qingran and the Young Master of the Mo Family have long given their spots to other talents within their forces.

Thus, these two also participated in the battles on the Martial Arts Arena.

Additionally, the principle upheld in the Central Region is solely that strength is respected.

Therefore, the entire Central Region is exceptionally martial.

Star Swapping City is no exception.

So, the competition for spots during the Star Swapping Day and the battles among the heavenly talents are ranked.

Based on rankings, rewards from various major forces in Star Swapping City can be obtained.

This is one of the reasons why Wang Xinghe and the others, despite having a spot, would still give it away and participate in the competition themselves.

However, alongside these generous rewards comes risk.

That risk being that if they fail in the competition and do not secure a rank or a spot, they lose the opportunity of the Star Swapping Day altogether.

Of course, such situations are almost impossible to occur.

The talents cultivated by the powerful forces securing spots are by no means comparable to those of ordinary forces.

Back to the point.

Xiao Yi has roughly understood the rules.

At this moment, on the Martial Arts Arena, the Eldest Prince barely blasted his opponent off the stage, securing a victory.

”Impressive.” Xiao Yi nodded.

It must be noted that the Eldest Prince’s cultivation was only at the half-step Heavenly Extreme, while his opponent was a Heavenly Extreme Second Layer genius.

And in the earlier battle, the Eldest Prince evidently suppressed this genius.

The Eldest Prince, though from a common region,

but the Wind Saint Royal Family is a mighty force.

In terms of strength, the Wind Saint Royal Family is not inferior to the major forces in Star Swapping City.

Regarding heritage, even any single force, even the Three Great Families, would be far surpassed by the Wind Saint Royal Family.

Naturally, regarding secret techniques, martial techniques, and cultivation techniques, the Eldest Prince is not weaker than the talents here and is even more powerful at the same cultivation level.

The only deficiency might be that the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, being richer in the Central Region, is more concentrated than in common regions.

This allows the martial artists here to cultivate more easily and breakthrough their cultivation more easily.

This results in the Eldest Prince’s cultivation appearing not as refined as the talents here.

Of course, the abundance of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy is one of the attractions of the Central Region, and one of the reasons talents from ordinary regions flock here.

Back to the point.

The Eldest Prince had already gone on stage once before, defeating an opponent.

This time, his reappearance is due to the need for ’points.’

Indeed, another rule in the Star Swapping Day competition is that ’points’ determine ranking.

At the chief seat of the spectator area, there are ten experts at the Heavenly Extreme Peak, who are martial artists from the City Lord’s Mansion, serving as the ten judges in this edition of the Star Swapping Day competition.

The judges will not intervene in any battle on the Martial Arts Arena.

They will only use their eyes to determine the situation of each battle and award points to the victors.

The more opponents a competing talent defeats, the stronger they are, the more points they receive.

Of course, these ’points’ are only applicable to those who secure a spot.

Simply put, among the over a hundred forces and the hundreds of talents participating, they must first win and secure a spot.

Once the 29 spots are decided, the final rankings are determined based on the points of each person.

If someone is dissatisfied with their points or ranking, they can challenge those ranked higher, and the winner replaces the higher ranking.

The rules may seem numerous, but in essence, everything is decided by two words: strength.

Whoosh...

At this moment, on the Martial Arts Arena, a figure appeared out of thin air.

The Eldest Prince, about to step down, frowned.

Standing before him was none other than Wang Xinghe.

Initially, the victorious Eldest Prince could have left the Martial Arts Arena first.

But now, with a challenger on stage, he was compelled to continue unless he opted to concede.

”It’s you?” The Eldest Prince frowned, ”That legendary number one genius of Star Swapping City.”

Wang Xinghe looked coldly and disdainfully at the Eldest Prince, ”I seem to have heard a certain ant say that my Wang Family is nothing much.”

”Now, I’m giving you a chance.”

”Either get off the Martial Arts Arena yourself and apologize to my Wang Family, or you won’t have the chance to leave this arena.”

The contemptuous words, spoken in a chilling tone, furrowed the Eldest Prince’s brow.

The Eldest Prince chuckled coldly, ”Just a while ago, your brother said something similar.”

”But the result was that the trash rolled off the Martial Arts Arena himself.”

”Why, does everyone in your Wang Family love to boast so much?”

”You seek death.” Wang Xinghe’s face turned cold as he instantly attacked.

On the Martial Arts Arena, with no judge to intervene, talents can start battling at any time.

Whoosh... Wang Xinghe’s figure vanished in an instant.

”So fast.” The Eldest Prince’s pupils contracted, his eyes unable to keep up with Wang Xinghe’s speed.

Whoosh... When Wang Xinghe appeared again, he was already in front of the Eldest Prince.

Wang Xinghe struck with a palm.

The Eldest Prince only had time to block with his fist.

Bang... A loud explosion.

The ground beneath the Eldest Prince’s feet cracked, and his legs instantly sank into the Martial Arts Arena.

Blood sprayed from his mouth, and the fist he used to block was already shattered and hung limply.

Wang Xinghe’s seemingly light palm had instantly reduced the Eldest Prince to such a sorry state.

In the spectator seats, Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, glanced at Lih Fengxing next to him, and said in a deep voice, ”Have the Eldest Prince concede, or he won’t last past the third palm.”

At this moment, on the Martial Arts Arena, Wang Xinghe’s hand was surrounded by a swirl of green light, exuding an exceptionally terrifying aura.

Second update.
