Chapter 148: Chapter 144: 2 Peaks Competition! 3 Rules!

Rumble——!

A thunderclap exploded, a brief incandescent light flashed across those black umbrellas.

Guann Tianyu heard the question and pondered before replying:

"The competition between the two peaks is said to be a test between them, but in truth, it is more about the comparison between the true disciples of the two peaks!"

"The competition is divided into three stages."

"The first stage tests the tactics!"

"In this stage, our six true disciples from the North and South Peaks will each head to different mountain paths, where disciples from both peaks will intercept and attack us!"

"For example, if I enter a mountain path, countless North Peak disciples will come to intercept and attack me, and similarly, the three true disciples of the North Peak will be intercepted and attacked by our South Peak disciples."

"The first to pass through the initial mountain path is the winner!"

Chen Zhixing frowned upon hearing this and said, "We true disciples are all in the True Self Realm, those ordinary disciples attacking and intercepting us shouldn’t pose any real threat. What’s the point?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ran beside him laughed and said, "That’s why the first stage tests tactics, because there is a suppressive force on this mountain path, which will suppress the True Self Realm cultivators, so they cannot use the Heaven and Earth Dharma Aspect that the True Self Realm should possess!"

"Is that so?"

Chen Zhixing raised an eyebrow slightly.

Heaven and Earth Dharma Aspect.

This is the biggest difference between True Self Realm cultivators and those of the Divine Travel Realm.

And it is this difference that sets the True Self Realm apart from the Divine Travel Realm!

Among them, the gap is like a chasm!

And if the True Self Realm is stripped of the ability to use the Heaven and Earth Dharma Aspect, although facing a group of Divine Travel Realm cultivators, they still have an advantage.

But this advantage can be compensated for by numbers!

"What if we can’t get past the interception and attacks?" Chen Zhixing asked.

"Then, they’re eliminated."

Li Ran shook his head and said, "Last time, during the competition between the two peaks, one of our South Peak true disciples fell at the first stage."

"So, this not only tests the strength of the true disciples but also the strength of the ordinary disciples from both peaks."

"If North Peak disciples can intercept us and our South Peak disciples cannot intercept the North Peak true disciples, we can only consider ourselves unlucky."

Chen Zhixing nodded slightly, as these competition rules are... quite rare.

"What about the second stage?" Chen Zhixing composed himself and asked again.

"The second stage is facing the interception by the elders of the two peaks!"

"As South Peak true disciples, we will face the interception of the Five Great Elders from North Peak, and the true disciples from North Peak will face interception by Elder Fulong and others from our side."

"This stage also has a suppressive force, pulling the elders and our cultivation to the same level!"

"This stage tests combat power; whether we as true disciples can sweep the battlefield at the same level!"

Guann Tianyu explained with a smile:

"To speak of it, this second stage is the most intriguing."

"Because you don’t know how many elders you will face for interception."

"It could be that all five elders from North Peak come to intercept you, leaving Li Ran and me to pass the second stage assessment, enter the third stage final duel, and forcibly keep you in the second stage."

"Of course, in most competitions, the second stage isn’t targeted like this."

"Typically, among the three true disciples, two face two elders, and one faces the strongest elder."

"As for the exact answer, only when we reach the second stage will we know which elders come to intercept us."

Chen Zhixing felt a bit surprised upon hearing this.

He didn’t expect that a competition between the two peaks would involve even the elders in the mix!

It truly becomes a measure of the overall strength of the two peaks.

"Wait."

Chen Zhixing seemed to have thought of something and asked doubtfully, "In this case, isn’t there a lot of room for manipulation... for example, the strongest chief true disciple of North Peak, Gai Rong."

"We could simply send out five elders to keep Gai Rong in the second stage, let the other two North Peak true disciples enter the third stage, wouldn’t that work?"

"It’s not that simple."

Guann Tianyu’s expression became solemn: "Do you know why Gai Rong is called the Triple Crown King? Why is he the strongest disciple in our Celestial Wave Sacred Lands?"

"Because when Gai Rong participated in the competition the second time, the Peak Leader arranged it this way."

"Guess what the result was...?"

Before Chen Zhixing could answer.

Guann Tianyu spoke in a deep voice: "That time, all five elders were defeated! Gai Rong single-handedly slayed through all five elders, Gai Rong’s name shone through ancient times, his reputation shook the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands, establishing him as the strongest disciple in history in one battle!"

"So in my opinion..."

"Since Gai Rong cannot be stopped no matter what, it’s better to let Gai Rong pass, strive to hold Peng Nai and Nie Xiaolong back, and in the final third stage of the ultimate duel, create a three against one scenario for us, perhaps increasing our chances of success."

"In short, this stage not only tests the strength of true disciples and peak elders, but also the strategic decisions and arrangements of the Peak Leaders of both peaks!"

Speaking of this, Guann Tianyu shook his head and said with emotion:

"The competition between the two peaks involves all disciples and elders of the two peaks, and even the decision-making abilities of the Peak Leaders, the design is so ingenious, it cannot be explained in a few words."

"If any link goes wrong, it could lead to a total collapse of the competition!"

Chen Zhixing nodded.

He did not ask what the third stage was.

From Guann Tianyu and Li Ran’s brief conversation just now, he could already guess, the third stage must be the final duel between the true disciples!

He also did not ask, given that South Peak only had four elders currently, how it should be handled.

Thinking about these, as a Holy Land, there are bound to be decisions made.

While they were speaking, they had already arrived at Kunhe Hall with all the South Peak disciples.

Kunhe Hall, taking the meaning of balance between Heaven and Earth.

It does not belong to either of the North or South Peaks but is situated above the waterfall between the two peaks.

Outside Kunhe Hall, a plaza laid with white jade tiles could be seen.

Hundreds of North Peak disciples dressed in sleeveless black outfits were already standing on one side, waiting quietly.

Standing together, they exuded an invisible pressure.

Upon hearing the dense, muffled footsteps.

All hundreds of North Peak disciples slightly turned their heads.

Amidst the pouring rain, a group of South Peak disciples under black umbrellas filed in.

The next moment.

Their expressions initially froze, then turned increasingly strange, finally unable to resist, they burst into laughter.

"What kind of entrance is this?"

"Umbrellas? Come on! We’re all cultivators here, who are you showing this to?"

"Hahaha, isn’t this way too pretentious?"

"That’s hilarious! Who thought of this entrance? Do they think this makes them look cool?"

As the laughter echoed.

"I knew it..."

Li Ran’s face immediately turned red, and he glared at Guann Tianyu, wanting to find a crack in the ground to hide.

Even Chen Zhixing slightly covered his face, it was indeed a bit too embarrassing.

Guann Tianyu, however, remained as usual, completely unbothered by the laughter, rather he nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied.

"Hmm, this is exactly the effect we wanted!"
