Chapter 163 - Drawing Lots (1/2)

At the same time, he poured in his spirit essence and let them release the internal images and information. He then pointed at the images and asked questions.

After confirming the specific details of many teams, Fang Yuan let Gu Tianqing go. Fortunately, Gu Tianqing had already noticed those things when he was doing his homework.

Therefore, he was very familiar with Fang Yuan’s questions. He answered the questions in just a few words, and at the same time, he gave Fang Yuan a lot of knowledge.

It was all knowledge related to the complaints of this world. It was not that Fang Yuan could not access this information before, but it was because they were too trivial and many.

If there was no one else to organize and analyze them, and only one person to work hard, even if they worked themselves to death, they would not be able to get any useful conclusions!

Fang Yuan already knew that this Gu Dao convention had three stages.

And the Gu Immortal Sect had already successfully passed the first stage!

After the selection round, the second part, the main force battle segment was next!

Previously, the competition was divided into four regions, but this time, the second stage was where the sects from each region were placed together.

They then were to have a two-on-two competition!

And at this time, according to the requirements of the Gu Dao convention, the Gu Immortal Sect, as the third place in the eastern region, was matched up against another group of experts. With experts all around, who dared to relax?

That must be an extremely intense battle, Fang Yuan thought silently.

But the difference between this second stage and the previous battles was that this stage did not test the individuals’ strength in each group.

Instead, it tested the cooperation between each sect’s members and their familiarity with the other sects.

Fang Yuan actually felt that this second stage was where the attention of the emperor of the Yan Shen Empire was placed.

Through such battles, not only could it temporarily disrupt the ratio of people in different teams, it could also tell them that victory was not only obtained by relying on themselves, but that teammates were also extremely important!

Of course, that wasn’t true if one had absolute strength, and could single-handedly defeat everyone!

However, the probability of that happening was very small. Even if it really happened and it seemed like it had disrupted the Yan Shen Empire’s emperor’s arrangements, in reality, he was more than happy!

This second stage of the competition had used this method to let the various sects understand each other better, let their guard down, and cultivate a sense of cooperation.

On another level, the strength of the few great sects must have been hidden in previous competitions, and the difference in strength between them wouldn’t be too big.

To actually allow these sects to display their true strength, one could see their true relationship with each other, or even deeper, directly see the strength and attitude of the sects themselves!

Although the Emperor had enough confidence that he would be able to suppress whatever happened, he could understand the strength and relationship of his subordinates in advance, and maintain the internal balance of strength within the Yan Shen Empire.

It was also an extremely good thing!

Fang Yuan only thought about it casually, and felt great admiration for this formation by the Yan Shen Empire’s emperor!

To be able to use such a method to achieve multiple goals at the same time, to make all the participants satisfied, to display their strength, to receive praise, and to obtain fame, wasn’t this what they hoped for?

And the rewards for the champions after that would allow those who were truly capable to receive rewards, killing many birds with one stone!
