Limitless Sword God

ting strength, this competition must allow battles with their lives on the line.
Although outside the competition, the evaluators are all experts and will timely stop anyone from dying, humans are still humans and not gods, there are bound to be accidents.
Furthermore, it is normal for people to lose their limbs in such battles, so making a few preparations before is better.”

“What? People will die?”

Su Yun was startled.

“Of course, I remember there was a similar competition a few years ago, and 12 people died! It was not that the evaluators did not do anything, but it was just that they were not strong enough, there are a few participants that had strength far higher than that of the evaluators!”

Lu Zhan Yuan said: “But you don’t have to worry, the people in Group D are not much and if there are truly accidents, the evaluators are able to settle it!”

“…”

Su Yun was speechless, following what Lu Zhan Yuan had said, he looked at the evaluators and saw that there were four people, two male and two females, they had treasures that concealed their strength, thus he could not evaluate them, but around them, there were many people discussing about the four people, which allowed Su Yun to realize that the four people were famous in New Deer City.

On the left most side was a middle aged man called ‘Zhang Guo Hao’.
Dressed in brown loose robes, he had a goatee and a moustache with a thin frame, his eyes bright and full of expression.

Next to him was ‘Li Gui Fang’, an old lady with some white hair and wrinkles on the forehead.

On the right was a man called ‘Lui Gu’, he looked extremely young with a long face, but in truth, it was rumored that he was over 300 years old with astonishing cultivation and great talent to boot.

Beside him was a young lady called ‘Xiao Zi Ru’, said to have only recently arrived in New Deer City.
She was very beautiful and delicate with high cultivation, the reason for her fame was because many experts desired to be dual cultivation companions with her.

All the spectators had finally entered the grounds and the big gates to the competition grounds were sealed.
Aside from that, the few rather high-end taverns around had people packed in them.

~Seems like New Deer City’s competition has attracted many people.~

A mellow and full short person stumbled onto the gigantic middle competition platform in the center of the competition grounds.
Seeing his clumsy appearance, the spectators erupted into laughter.

After climbing up the stage, this man laughed in embarrassment, he then activated a bit of his Profound Spirit Qi and started speaking, surprising people with his rather attractive and sweet sounding voice which was contrasting to his fat appearance.

“Thank you, various spectators, guests and participants, for greatly supporting this year’s competition, I will be your host Zhu Wen, please take care of me.”

With that said, the fatty bowed and then continued to speak: “In addition, I will introduce the evaluators for this competition along with the rules and of course, the competition prizes.”

“We have fortunately invited Zhang Guo Hao, Li Gui Fang, Liu Gu, and Xiao Zi Ru, the few masters to be our evaluators and judges, all competition matters will be conducted by them, the way the battle will be conducted is like a battle for life and death, but if someone is about to be killed, the various masters will immediately stop it at first notice, so I hope that everyone will take note of that.”

“The champion of the competition will be given a million cultivation coins kindly sponsored by ‘Hua Wei Chamber of Commerce’ and ‘Yu Shuang Auction House’, aside from that, the champions will obtain a top grade pill sponsored from both great Trading Organisations, after consuming the pill, it will supply the champion with 30 years of cultivation, these pills are worth cities!”

Shu Wen said loudly.

Upon hearing that, the entire place flew into a commotion.

A million cultivation coins along with a pill that could supply 30 years of cultivation, that was many years of cultivating, how many cultivators would want that? WIth that, they would take a huge leap and be ahead of others.

But what Su Yun cared more about, were the owners of the two great organizations.

~To be so generous, they are most likely not ordinary people.~

The second place and third place also had prizes, but were not as attractive as the ones for the champion, after Shu Wen reported the prizes, it did not stir the crowd as much.

“Alright, less talking! Let the competition begin now!!”

Shu Wen ended his speech abruptly, although he was not a host that could speak well, he understood how to observe the crowd, he had already sensed the impatience in them, and immediately jumped to the main topic.

The crowd immediately flew into a commotion after Shu Wen shouted.

“Now, we will begin with Group D’s drawing of lots, participants, your card will light up if you are selected to battle, so please pay attention and prepare to head on stage!”

Shu Wen shouted, at the participants area, the spirit cultivators all looked at the cards in their hands, in the blink of the eye, two white lights erupted from among the crowd.

It was two participants from Group D.

The two stood from their seats and looked at each other and cupped their fists: “Please advise me!”

“Please!”

With that said, the two of them immediately appeared on stage in the next second, something completely unachievable by people of the Sky Martial Continent.

On one side was a fighting strength of 1900 and 2200 the other, they were considered the weaker ones amongst the participants.

Following the sound of a chime, the two engaged in battle.

The disparity of strength between both parties was not wide, thus the battle was rather equal, and after an incense stick worth of time, there was still no apparent victor.

It was a battle between Spirit Star cultivators after all, thus the battle lasted longer.

Right then, Xiao Zi Ru who was below the stage suddenly stood up and looked at the two of them expressionlessly.

“Every competition has a rule of an hour battle, once the battle exceeds an hour, if any of the participants are to forfeit to end the battle, the person who forfeited must accept the punishment of breaking one arm and destroying a stage of cultivation as punishment!”

The moment the cold voice said that, the entire competition grounds became silent, even the two spirit cultivators on stage stopped fighting and looked at Xiao Zi Ru in shock.

There were no such rule written in the registration at all!
