Chapter 946: Drawing Lots for Matches

Chapter 946: Chapter 946: Drawing Lots for Matches

When Lin Kuang arrived, the eyes of the five martial artists standing beside him involuntarily fell upon him.

These five people knew very well that the reason Lin Kuang could stand here was because he had passed the core disciple assessment. After all, only core disciples could stand here.

However, when they saw that Lin Kuang only had the strength of the True Realm Initial Stage, their expressions subtly changed, and their eyes showed a hint of caution.

Those who could reach this stage were not foolish; their strengths were at least at the True Realm Late Stage, and some were even at the Peak of the True Realm Late Stage.

For Lin Kuang to achieve this step with only the Initial Stage strength of the True Realm didn’t mean Lin Kuang was weak; it simply meant Lin Kuang’s strength was very formidable, or in other words, Lin Kuang’s hidden strength was very formidable!

No one dared to underestimate this.

While they were sizing up Lin Kuang, Lin Kuang was also sizing them up.

These five people didn’t look very old, appearing to be in their twenties or thirties, yet each one’s strength was formidable.

Lin Kuang could clearly sense the powerful strength within them.

"Indeed, those who can stand here are all masters. The weakest among them is at the True Realm Late Stage, and there are even two at the Peak of the True Realm,"

Lin Kuang thought to himself as he looked at the five people in front of him.

While Lin Kuang was pondering, the Deputy Sect Master appeared in person, standing at the center of the three arenas, looking quietly at the numerous young people below his feet.

"Greetings, everyone. I’m Qiubai, the Deputy Sect Master of the Supreme Divine Sect. I am pleased to meet such geniuses as you.

Of course, there are quite a few among you who will leave, lacking the opportunity to become disciples of the Supreme Divine Sect.

However, I hope you won’t give up. The path of cultivation is long. Not being able to join the Supreme Divine Sect doesn’t mean you lack talent.

So, I hope even if you don’t become disciples of the Supreme Divine Sect, you won’t be discouraged. As long as you persist, you will surely become powerful figures!"

The Deputy Sect Master Qiubai said, his rousing tone reaching everyone.

At that instant, everyone felt a surge of passion, further strengthening their resolve on the path of cultivation.

However, many were puzzled; usually, in such situations, it was the elders of the Supreme Divine Sect who would step forward. Today, it was the Deputy Sect Master who appeared, which was unusual?

Of course, they didn’t voice this confusion, nor was there any need to ask, as it wouldn’t be of any use.

"Alright, everyone, the competition will start tomorrow.

But before today ends, you need to draw lots to determine your opponents. The battle will commence promptly at noon tomorrow.

The rules are clear to you: there are three core disciples, six inner sect disciples, and eight outer sect disciples.

If a core disciple loses, they will become an inner sect disciple, but they won’t be counted among the predetermined six inner sect disciples. This applies in a similar manner to others; everyone understands, right?"

Looking at the disciples on the ground, Qiubai spoke again.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, indicating their understanding.

"Good, since you all understand, I won’t say more. Let’s start drawing lots now.

Elder Ziche, Elder Zimu, please proceed."

Speaking, Qiubai glanced at Elders Ziche and Zimu.

Seeing this, the two nodded, and Elder Ziche walked towards the position of the core disciples.

"Everyone, let’s start drawing lots. Let’s begin with you."

Arriving in front of Lin Kuang and the others, Elder Ziche smiled and said, his gaze landing on Lin Kuang.

At this moment, six plaques floated in front of Elder Ziche, each enveloped in a radiant light, utterly impenetrable by Lin Kuang and the others’ divine sense, seemingly to prevent cheating.

Upon hearing this, Lin Kuang didn’t stand on ceremony, reaching out to grab a plaque.

Unfolding the plaque to look, it had the name Chu Chen written on it.

"Chu Chen, you’ll be up against Lin Kuang."

Speaking, Elder Ziche glanced at a young man in a white robe.

Upon hearing Elder Ziche’s words, Chu Chen stepped forward, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

Since Lin Kuang is in the first match, he is quite confident of winning because he is a True Realm Peak expert. As long as he doesn’t face an opponent of the same level, he feels assured of victory.

Now that his opponent is Lin Kuang, the weakest of them all, he feels even more certain.

"In the second match, Tao Qiang versus Miao Zhuo, the third match, Huo Fei versus Ning Hao."

After the remaining two finished drawing their plaques, Elder Ziche announced.

"Alright, these are your match schedules. Remember, tomorrow at noon, be punctual."

Elder Ziche said with a smile as he approached the inner sect disciples to begin drawing lots for match-ups.

When everyone had finished drawing lots, disciples of the Supreme Divine Sect appeared to lead Lin Kuang and the others to the resting area.

After all, with the battle starting tomorrow, they would naturally stay at the Supreme Divine Sect tonight.

"Everyone, these are your quarters. Lin Kuang, this is yours.

Chu Chen, here’s yours. Huo Fei, yours is here. Ning Hao, this is yours. Tao Qiang, Miao Zhuo, these are yours, respectively.

Later, servant disciples will take care of your meals, and you may rest."

The leading disciple of the Supreme Divine Sect spoke with a friendly smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and went to their courtyards.

When Lin Kuang reached his courtyard, a slight shiver ran through his body. A wave of intensely dense Profound Qi enveloped him, almost corporeal in form, making cultivation here incredibly efficient.

"True to its name, the Supreme Divine Sect is truly deserving of its status as the quarters of the core disciples. The Profound Qi here is at least dozens of times more concentrated than outside!

Cultivating here for a day is equivalent to a month’s cultivation outside."

Lin Kuang thought to himself, his eyes filled with awe.

Suddenly, the quiet Jinmao leaped out of Lin Kuang’s arms.

"Chirp chirp, chirp chirp."

The little creature jumped around the courtyard happily, seemingly quite content with the place.

"What is it? You like it here too?"

Watching Jinmao jump around on the ground, Lin Kuang asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Jinmao nodded continuously, chirping happily, clearly very fond of it too.

"Then let’s go inside,"

Lin Kuang said with a smile, feeling quite pleased himself.

Jinmao nodded happily and followed Lin Kuang into the room.

The Profound Qi inside the room was no less than outside, but rather a bit more concentrated.

Sitting on the wooden bed inside the room, Lin Kuang’s eyes were filled with emotion.

This is the Supreme Divine Sect; this is one of the top sects on the Profound Qi Continent. Truly impressive.

If Earth had such rich spiritual energy, it too would produce many talents.

Lin Kuang thought wistfully. If Earth also had such abundant Profound Qi, why would he have needed to come here?
