It had been two months since they last met, and right now, Gong Qinyin was already at the fifth stage of the Astral Realm . Her speed of growth was truly astonis.h.i.+ngly fast .

A few other people arrived as well, including Lu Xiaoqing's senior sister, Chen Xin . The mischievous Chen Xin did not forget to stick her tongue out at Xiang Shaoyun when he looked at her .

”Alright, everyone is here, so I will get started,” Yang Gaochuan said . ”In a few months, the once-every-three-years Battle of Towns will be held . Every Battle of Towns is a grand occasion for the Cloud Margin City, and 130 towns around the Cloud Margin City would be partic.i.p.ating in it . There, geniuses will gather to compete for the glory of their towns . . . ”

It did not take everyone long to know what their next task was . The so-called Battle of Towns was a compet.i.tion between the young cultivators of the various towns . The result of the compet.i.tion would also determine each town’s placing . The Cloud Margin City would also give rewards to the partic.i.p.ants based on the result of the compet.i.tion .

Apart from the partic.i.p.ants of the compet.i.tion, the organizations whose disciples were in the top 10 would also be greatly rewarded . One could say that this compet.i.tion was extremely important for the young cultivators and the various towns .

It was worth noting that the type of rewards the Cloud Margin City would give was something the resources available to these towns couldn't compare with . The rewards given would be useful even to those at the King Realm and above .

But it was not easy to get in the top 10 with over a hundred towns partic.i.p.ating . The Martial Hall Palace had partic.i.p.ated in tens of Battle of Towns, yet their best result was when they had managed to get ninth place that one time .

And that was the only time they had ever gotten into the top 10 . Despite their less than ideal results, they would still not miss a single Battle of Towns . That was because partic.i.p.ating in the Battle of Towns was in itself a great training process for the disciples . It would help the disciples grow stronger, which was beneficial for the Martial Hall Palace .

But of course, as with everything in life, there were pros and cons to partic.i.p.ating in the Battle of Towns . The Battle of Towns was filled with uncertainties, and it had an extremely high mortality rate . Each time it was held, at least 70 percent of the partic.i.p.ants would die .

The 10 disciples here wouldn't be the only partic.i.p.ants of the town . Each town had 50 slots, and with a mortality rate of 70 percent, the number of deaths was extremely high .

The 10 disciples here were also the most remarkable disciples of the Martial Hall Palace in the recent three years . High hopes were placed on them to bring glory to the Martial Hall Palace .

”You are not only gathered here so we can tell you about the compet.i.tion . We also wish to remind you all to make use of the final three months you have to advance your cultivation . During this period, all the resources of the Martial Hall Palace will be made available for all of you . Try to improve as much as you can . Do know that there will be many geniuses from other towns partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion, and some of them will be even more talented than you . I even heard that some of them are already in the Transformation Realm,” Yang Gaochuan said .

When the disciples heard that there were already Transformation Realm cultivators among the disciples of other towns, their expressions turned solemn .

The 10 people here were the disciples of Martial Hall Palace who were either the strongest or the most talented of their peers . All of them were prideful youths, thinking that they were already the best in their age group . Upon figuring out that some of their peers were already in the Transformation Realm, they started to feel the pressure .

The difference between them and a Transformation Realm cultivator was still too big . Not even 10 peak Astral Realm cultivators could defeat 1 Transformation Realm cultivator . Thus, it wasn't hard to imagine how terrifying their opponents in the compet.i.tion would be .

”Mo Zhu, you are the eldest senior brother, so the burden on you will be the heaviest . Be sure to look after your juniors . Got it?” Tan Guanghua said .

Mo Zhu was the pride of Tan Guanghua, and he was already a ninth-stage Astral Realm cultivator . He was only 18 years old this year, and he looked very heroic and handsome in his training outfit, with his tall and straight posture and the sword hanging on his back .

Even when speaking, he carried himself in a refined manner . ”I, Mo Zhu, will do my best to look after the juniors . ”

”But if he has to take care of his juniors, wouldn't it rob him of his chance to fight for a better placing? Will it be proper to expect him to babysit his juniors?” Qing Xiuhe asked .

”Not really . I believe Mo Zhu will be able to find a perfect balance between taking care of his juniors and fighting for a good result . ” Tan Guanghua was filled with confidence toward his disciple .

”Alright . We're done here . Feel free to request anything you need . The Martial Hall Palace will support all of you to the best of our ability,” Yang Gaochuan said . He paused slightly and looked at Xiang Shaoyun before saying, ”Everyone may leave now . Xiang Shaoyun, you stay . ”
