Chapter 310: Three Months Passed (2/2)

Soon, the three months passed and it is time for the resource competition.

Sam reached fifth place and only defended his position. Philip and Jack got ninth and tenth places. Their only purpose here is to spectate the battles of seniors to learn something out of it.

That day, they were escorted to the space gate island.

Nicholas is still in second place as he didn't get a chance to fight Arthur, as, for the reason, Arthur was in a special mission given by the higher-ups, but there is a rumor that the higher-ups didn't let them fight so that the leadership of the team didn't go into hands of a disciple who is not a descendant of the thunder god temple.

They might have even let Arman take this, but Nicholas is a complete outsider who came from the western continent.

Sam could totally understand this and there is a high chance that this is true.

But what he is most interested in is, from what he knew Nicholas would be the last person to be interested in the positions, fame, and status. He wondered how these higher-ups would think, that the place they guarded with their honor online, is extremely worthless in the eyes of a green young man.

There is an extremely complicated space gate in a secure location of the island.

Sam looked at the two other teams. Right now, he is in the category of Below thirty-year-old cultivators.

Sam is just nineteen, meanwhile, Jack and Philip are twenty, but their cultivations are high for their ages and can only content in the under-thirty age category.

As for the remaining two teams, the under-twenty team is nothing special as their competition doesn't affect the whole resource distribution much.

At most, they are only here to expand their horizons.

As for the last team, which under-fifty category. Moriya is leading it.

He is the best Nascent stage cultivator of the thunder-god temple. He is as calm as usual.

Sam observed the Nascent stage cultivators and could sense their battle-hardened spirits.

They are emitting an aura which is filled with the smell of blood.

One look and he could say that they have been through all kinds of tough battles.

Only Nascent stage cultivators Sam knew, who could compare to them are the Six swords of the sword Marshall from the former Orion.

They have the same kind of aura these guys had.

After everyone gathered, the temple head came and led them to the space gate.

After the transference, they arrived in a large stone building.

”You guys, stay here. Moriya will lead you when it is time.”

Temple's head said those words and left. Moriya guided them outside the stone building.

When they came out, there is a large expanse of forest.

The stone building is not even that big. It is as big as a single bedroom apartment in the modern world and there are only two rooms, one of them is the space gate and another one is just a meeting room which is almost like a mini-auditorium.

”Recover as soon as you can. There is not much to discuss. Don't expect a majestic ceremony or something. There wouldn't be any superficial things like that here.

Everything will be straight forward and all you have to do is fight when you are asked to. The team with the first place will get some prizes which would be useful for your cultivation.

There are almost no restrictions in a fight except for the weapons, inscription scrolls, and formation discs.

You cannot use higher ranked weapons than your cultivation level.

You can kill the opponent if you want. The only way the fight would end is one of two faints, one of two dies, or one of the two surrenders.”

Moriya explained the rules.

Sam was glad when he heard that there are no ceremonies.

As Moriya was about to explain the remaining rules, his expression changed and started leading them somewhere.

”Follow me.”
