Chapter 567: Qualifying
"That's what I thought, too. Cai Qinghe nodded and said, "This Mu Fan is definitely worth pressing on the future of our sect." ”
"In this case, no matter what happens in the future, we must do our best to protect Mu Fan. Hearing this, a determined light suddenly shot out of his eyes.
"Hopefully he won't let us down. ”
Early the next morning, the entire Tiandu Main City was boiling to welcome this rare grand occasion.
After all, the big competition of the ninth-level sect is only once in twenty years, and this level of competition can definitely represent the strength of the younger generation of the entire Celestial Empire.
Even in the Shenzhou Continent, the ninth-level sect is the most powerful sect, and as for the tenth-level sect, it has not appeared for tens of thousands of years.
Because the tenth-level sect means that there must be a supreme existence within the sect.
And in this world, there has been no supreme birth for a long time, and the strongest of all races is just the realm of Nirvana.
Therefore, the ninth-level sects and the various Celestial Dynasties are enough to represent the peak combat power of the entire world, and the heirs they have cultivated are naturally the leaders of the younger generation.
These people are all talented, have many hole cards, and each of them is almost invincible at the same level and can fight beyond the ranks.
For these people, if they can't fight beyond the ranks, they can't be called true geniuses.
Under such circumstances, the descendants of each of the ninth-level sects have already become famous and known to everyone.
The only surprise was the Tianyang Sect.
Among those who were familiar with the Tianyang Sect, they already knew that the Tianyang Sect had no real Tianjiao outside of the Tianxin Moon.
Everyone took it for granted that Tianyang Sect would let Tianxinyue go through the motions, but they didn't expect that in the end, they didn't know where to get a young man named Mu Fan.
This Mu Fan didn't say anything about his strength, but before he reached the main city of the Heavenly Capital, the person disappeared.
This once made the Tianyang Sect a laughing stock.
And Mu Fan only returned last night, so many people don't know that Mu Fan has returned.
There are only thirty-five ninth-level sects in the entire Great Han Heavenly Dynasty.
The ninth-level sects are divided into early, middle and late stages, and the sects at each stage will not fight, they will only compete for the corresponding ranks.
For example, an early sect like Tianyang Sect will only fight with the descendants of the early sect, not with the descendants of the later sect.
However, among these thirty-five sects, there are only three real ninth-level late-stage sects, four mid-ninth-level sects, and the others are all ninth-level early sects, plus some eighth-level peak forces that are qualified to compete for ninth-level sects, so Mu Fan's opponents are not small.
And the change in the ninth-level forces is actually not big, each time it is just the implementation of the last elimination method and the elimination of the last three.
In other words, every sixty years, the status of the three ninth-level sects will change, and for those ordinary people, it is already a lifetime.
Of course, for a martial artist, sixty years is not a lot, as far as Mu Fan is concerned, his current lifespan is nearly two thousand years, which is already an immortal existence for many people.
Moreover, this is still the lifespan of Mu Fan Tongtian Realm, if he reaches the realm of Nirvana, it is said that he can live for more than 5,000 years, and the life span of the Supreme Realm is calculated in 10,000 years.
Therefore, no one dares to underestimate those old ninth-level sects, because no one knows how many old guys who are not dead are hidden inside their sect.
Of course, to evaluate the strength of a ninth-level sect, it is not only the number of masters in it, but also the strength of the younger generation, if this sect can't cultivate a peerless genius in sixty years, then it should be his decline.
Such a system cannot be said to be good or bad, but it can undoubtedly fiercely intensify those ninth-level sects, and at the same time give those low-level sects a chance.
In fact, this is a means for the Celestial Empire to control the ninth-level sect, because the evaluation of the ninth-level sect needs to be recognized by the Celestial Empire.
Only with the approval of the Celestial Empire can they enjoy the rights of the ninth-level sects, which will undoubtedly make those ninth-level sects lower than the Celestial Empire.
Those ninth-level sects naturally knew the plans of the major Celestial Dynasties, but the strength of the Celestial Empire was indeed terrifying, and it was not something that one or two ninth-level sects could compete with at all, plus the Celestial Empire gave them enough freedom and resources to enjoy, so no one was going to provoke a rebellion.
So over the years, this kind of system has continued, and with the passage of time, it has become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, making all ninth-level sects think that this is a matter of course.
Walking on the way to the martial arts arena, Mu Fan's heart was full of emotion.
Because he hasn't been in the Shenzhou Continent for a long time, but he has gone from a small city, to a medium-sized city, to a big city, and now he has come directly to the capital of the Celestial Empire.
Mu Fan didn't think that he would experience so much, which made him feel a little at the magic of fate.
However, after walking so many places, there is still no news from Shui Yunxiu, which is Mu Fan's biggest regret.
However, after the ninth-level competition, presumably the name Mu Fan will be famous in the entire Han Heavenly Dynasty, if Shui Yunxiu is in the Great Han Heavenly Dynasty, he will inevitably come to find himself, in this way, it will be much easier for the two to meet.
If there is no news of Shui Yunxiu by then, Mu Fan plans to leave the Great Han Heavenly Dynasty and then go to the next place.
Just as Mu Fan was thinking, their group had already arrived at a huge martial arts arena.
The enormity of the main city of the Heavenly Capital is undoubted, because the city contains a huge mountain range, which used to have a radius of tens of thousands of miles, and after being transformed, the scale is still not to be underestimated.
And this so-called martial arts arena, which is said to be a martial arts arena, is actually transformed from a valley.
The valley is surrounded by mountains on three sides and has been transformed into stands, and the huge canyon has been leveled and turned into a venue for martial arts.
This kind of handwriting is really an eye-opener for Mu Fan.
But then I thought about it, this is actually nothing, because even for him, splitting mountains and rocks is not difficult at all, and with a little effort, he can definitely create a bigger martial arts arena than this.
And the core of this martial arts arena is naturally those defensive formations, these extremely powerful formations are enough to resist the random attacks of the Tongtian Realm martial artists without any problems.
It can be said that this martial arts arena is specially tailored for martial artists above the Tongtian Realm, and it is also prepared for the ninth-level competition, because under normal circumstances, such a martial arts arena is not used.
And when Mu Fan came to the martial arts arena, the surrounding stands were already full of people, hundreds of thousands of people gathered together, and the huge and incomparably loud noise rose directly into the sky, shaking people's minds dizzy.
Mu Fan, accompanied by Tian Fangqing, went to the corresponding area and confirmed his identity, and then separated from Tian Fangqing.
The players who participated in the competition had a special area to rest, and in the process of resting, Mu Fan also got the rules of this competition.
And the rules this time are different from the previous competitions that Mu Fan experienced, this time it turned out to be a challenge.
The Great Han Heavenly Dynasty arranged the numbers of all the participating sects according to their past performance, and then each person occupied the position corresponding to this number.
The challenger chooses the number you want to challenge, that is, the position, if the challenger wins, the two exchange places, if they fail, the challenger loses the qualification to challenge.
There are a total of thirty-five ninth-level sects participating in the big competition this time, and there are a total of twenty-eight ninth-level sects in the early stage, and there are four who want to advance to the ninth-level sect.
In this way, there are a total of thirty-two people in the same challenge area as Mu Fan.
Therefore, the Great Han Heavenly Dynasty arranged thirty-two positions, and Mu Fan ranked twenty-eighth, that is, the worst one among the ninth-level sects.
Although Mu Fan had long known that Tianyang Sect had been ranked last twice, it was still a little embarrassing to sit here at this time, but he didn't think much about it, he believed in his strength, and he would definitely not sit at twenty-eight all the time.
And the one above Mu Fan is the Nine Hidden Mansions, that is, the Nine Hidden Mansions.
Although the Nine Shadows Mansion had just been promoted to the ninth-level sect last time, it was ranked one place higher than the Tianyang Sect, if it weren't for the fact that the Tianyang Sect was an old sect, the Nine Shadows Mansion would have dealt with the Tianyang Sect a long time ago.
After all, the foundation of the Nine Shadows Mansion cannot be compared with the Tianyang Sect, so the Nine Shadows Mansion has always wanted to kill the Tianyang Sect, but it is afraid of the latter's strength.
And after the Tianyang Sect fell out of the ninth-level sect, the Nine Shadows Mansion would not have to be afraid at all.
You Jiuzhong saw Mu Fan and immediately sneered: "The kid is very horizontal, you will challenge me if you have a kind!"
"We will naturally have a fight, but it doesn't have to be me challenging you, maybe you challenge me!" Mu Fan didn't let it go.
According to the rules, it is generally the weak who challenge the strong, and when Mu Fan said this, the meaning is naturally obvious.
Mu Fan is now twenty-eight, and Yu Jiuzhong is twenty-seven, if Mu Fan directly skips Yu Jiu Chong and then defeats No. 26, then, if Yu Jiuzhong wants to fight with Mu Fan, he must challenge Mu Fan.
"You are wishful thinking!" You Jiuzhong said disdainfully when he heard this: "You can't even pass my level, and you still want to challenge for a higher ranking?"
"Don't say it too early, be careful of being slapped in the face!" Mu Fan grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, which were extremely dazzling.
"I'm going to see who gets slapped in the face in the end. Yu Jiuzhong snorted coldly, and then sat down in his place.
Seeing this, Mu Fan stopped talking nonsense, sat in his position and closed his eyes, waiting for Dabi to start.
The position of No. 28 is not only embarrassing, but also on the cusp.
For those ninth-level sects, twenty-eight is the last one, but for those eighth-level sects who want to become ninth-level sects, number twenty-eight is the easiest one to challenge.
So the four people behind were all eyeing Mu Fan.
If it was said that everyone would be a competitor between the ninth-level sects, there was no competition between the four eighth-level sects now.
The four of them had to deal with Mu Fan until Mu Fan was defeated and this position was replaced.
While everyone was waiting, an old figure suddenly suspended in the sky above the martial arts arena, this old man had silver hair and was wearing a simple white robe.
It looks simple and ordinary, and there is nothing unusual about it.
However, the sect masters of the major ninth-level sects all looked solemn when they saw this old man, because this person was the law enforcement officer of the main city of the Heavenly Capital, representing the law enforcement of the Heavenly Empire, and only obeying the orders of the emperor of the Heavenly Empire.
