Chapter 1060 - The Grand Event Began (1/2)

More people surged into Qin Yang County as the event was about to begin. In the end, there were about a hundred thousand people in the city. All the television stations and the most authoritative live-broadcast media around the country were there.

Apart from cultivators, there were also many tourists along the way.

Even though they couldn’t get into the venue, they could watch live-broadcasts in pubs, bars, hotels or even outdoors. After all, there weren’t many chances for them to see the Connate and the Divine Sea Cultivators. Divine Sea Cultivators would battle during this cultivation event, and even Connate Cultivators might join the fight. So, who wouldn’t want to go and see this?

People said the large sects in the country—like the Ba Ji Sect, the Tai Chi Sect and the Wu family—had sent their cultivators there. They were all being led by an Immortal State Warrior and there might even be Connate Cultivators, but they would be the last to arrive.

Other than Yan Junze, Chen Fan also saw Jiang Feifei, Chu Yun, Lu Yang and Xiao Xuan. They were surrounded by a group of young people who were Foundation Establishment Cultivators. They only nodded and left immediately when they saw Chen Fan. Lu Yang and the others didn’t even look at him.

Someone asked about Chen Fan.

“Who’s that? Is he one of the young masters in Chu Zhou City?”

Xiao Xuan then replied, “He’s just a friend of Sister Feifei’s aunt. He didn’t even dare to accept Lu Yang’s challenge once. Lu Yang promised he wouldn’t use his Dharma Power and True Qi to fight, but that guy still rejected him. He’s not the same as us.”

“I see.”

Everyone smiled.

Since Chen Fan wasn’t a cultivator, he wouldn’t be on the same level as they were, no matter how high his social standing was. Many of them shook their heads and ignored him.

The third day.

The event finally started.

This day, people flooded to the venue in the outskirts of Qin Yang County. It was an outdoor venue and was as large as ten stadiums. The disciples of the large families in Jiang Bei were guarding the entrance. Those who wanted to enter had to have an invitation, or they wouldn’t be allowed in.

“This event was organized for the high-level cultivators before, but it’s become an occasion for the families and sects to fight for the top place. The best part of it are the ‘sect battles.’ The sect who wins can have the biggest amount of interests in the Jiang Bei province. Many sects in the country send their young disciples here,” Yan Junze said as he took out his invitation.

Chen Fan looked around.

A lot of young cultivators in different outfits were entering the venue through another pa.s.sage.

“Ah, I wonder when I’ll be able to get on the stage and defeat all the cultivators from the large sects and families in Jiang Bei, or even around China, becoming the top cultivator of the younger generation. How amazing would that be! I guess even Wu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ would come to me by then,” Yan Junze said sadly.

Wu s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was a famous movie star in recent years. She was young, gorgeous, sweet and cute, and was Yan Junze’s dream lover.

Chen Fan patted his shoulder and said, “You will one day.”

The atmosphere was completely different once they entered the venue. There were people going on the highest stage in the hall and each of them carried a powerful energy that made them seem like dinosaurs. People nearby cheered when they appeared.

“Zhao Deyang from the Zhao family in Chu Zhou City. He’s a Martial Artist with powerful Internal Force and is now a Divine Sea Cultivator.”

“Luo Guojun from the Luo family in Tian He City. I heard he’s just retired from the army. He has incredible power and is said to be able to withstand attacks from Dharma Treasures and flying swords.”

“Master Xuanjian from the Xuanjian Arena in Qin Shui City. He’s the most powerful swordsman in Jiang Bei and even Tang Yuanqin speaks highly of him…”

People exclaimed every time a Divine Sea Cultivator entered.

Chen Fan noticed that things were really different at the moment. Even a girl with golden hair and luxurious clothes behind him was obsessed with those cultivators.

Those Divine Sea Cultivators also nodded and enjoyed the attention received from the audience as they stood on the stage.

But that was not the highlight of the event.

There was a commotion in the hall when the large sects like the Ba Ji Sect entered.

Yan s.h.i.+gao pointed at a man at the entrance and yelled, “Look! It’s Gao Baisheng from the Ba Ji Sect! He became a peak-stage Divine Sea Cultivator a long time ago and is claimed to be unstoppable.”

Gao Baisheng?

Chen Fan turned around.

That man was tall and muscular, of about forty years of age. The entire venue shook slightly when he walked; he was a man full of power. Wasn’t he the enemy from the Ba Ji Sect whom Chen Fan had defeated in the base of Cang Dragon back then?

“It’s really him!” Chen Fan exclaimed.

When Gao Baisheng arrived, the other cultivators also got up and greeted that invincible master. Although they were all at the Divine Sea realm, Gao Baisheng had defeated countless cultivators of the same level. He wasn’t someone normal Divine Sea Cultivators could compare to. Gao Baisheng only nodded and sat down.
