225 Trap by the Sect of Enlightenment? (1/2)
”Are you stupid? There's no way we can let a Qi Celestial enter the competition!”
”Yes! With everyone being Qi Saints and Qi Emperors, a Qi Celestial would single-handedly defeat all of them!”
”So what? It isn't Bai Long's fault that your juniors are all useless trash cultivators.”
”What did you say? He... ”
Shrugging her shoulders, Lifen looked towards Jian Shen who was listening to what the Grand Elders of all the forces were debating about.
Since Bai Long had entered the Qi Celestial Realm while the one with the next most gains was only in the Qi Emperor Realm, the other forces weren't willing to let him enter the competition.
Doing so would just mean allowing the Divine Night Sect to enjoy a free win.
But, it wasn't as if they could directly just reject Bai Long's right to join the competition when he had entered the Treasure Lands just like everyone else did.
This was why a decision hadn't been made even when there was only one day left before the competition would be started.
Listening to all of this Bai Long asked, ”Will they let me compete if you promise that none of the other members from the Divine Night Sect would join?”
Tilting her head in confusion, Lifen was about to say something when Bai Long spoke with a smile on his face, ”No one that enters the competition with me will walk out alive.”
Blinking her eyes in surprise Lifen also widely smiled and transmitted their thoughts to only the Grand Elder of the Divine Night Sect.
Hearing these words, the old man also smiled and quickly made everyone agree to allow Bai Long to enter the competition as long as no one else from the Divine Night Sect would join.
After all, even if Bai Long was a Qi Celestial it didn't guarantee that he'd be able to win.
Since everyone could just throw away the tokens they possessed if they wanted to escape that place, it wasn't as if they needed to be scared of their members dying or being injured too much.
This was also the same concern that the Grand Elder had when making the others agree, but he chose to just do this because it was something that the granddaughter of the First Grand Elder wanted him to do.
Also, he had been totally shocked and impressed by Bai Long who created a miracle by entering the Qi Celestial Realm in just three years.
Therefore, he both wanted to see what it was that Bai Long would do as well as get on the good side of someone who was guaranteed to become a big deal.
Like this, Bai Long was officially given the rights to participate in the competition.
...
”So, have you decided what it is that you'll ask for when you win?”
”You said that I can ask for anything right?”
”Yup.”
As Lifen nodded her head, Bai Long smiled and asked, ”Can I ask for the Empress of the Ice Phoenix Empire to become my slave?”
