Chapter 669: Chapter 334: The Grand Competition Begins_1

"The first-hand information’s here!" Ling Menglu’s voice announced her arrival before she even stepped in.

Tomorrow morning, the Great Impartation Contest will begin. Tonight, they must all gather to continue their cultivation. If their spiritual power increased even a little, that would be considered as a kind of accumulation, which will play a significant role in their upcoming tests.

"What information?" Ming Xi, full of excitement, came over to Ling Menglu and asked curiously.

Ling Menglu explained: "For this Great Impartation Contest, there are 321 participants. Among them, Knights Temple and Magic Temple have the highest number of participants. Knights Temple has 64 participants, while Magic Temple has 60. The temple with the least number of participants is Soul Temple, with only 38..."

Without a doubt, the stronger the temple, the fiercer the internal competition. The first thing they need to compete for are the top six seats of their respective temples before advancing to the final competition. Scoring well in the finals is no easy task. All participants have a 9th Rank teacher as their backing, and the whole competition is a knock-out. There are no second chances. Once you lose, you’re out. Therefore, luck also plays a role in securing a good result. After all, no one wants to face a strong opponent right off the bat.

"Each temple has 6 seeded players who do not participate in the first round to give other contestants more chances. Starting from the second round, the seeded players will join the contest."

Ming Xi exclaimed in surprise: "Do we also have seeded players?"

Ling Menglu nodded, "Of course we do. Sister Wang is the third seed of Warriors Temple. The seeds are ranked based on past records, their own cultivation level, and strength of their teacher."

Indeed, no one knew who Sister Wang’s teacher from Warriors Temple was. It seems her teacher must not be weak.

Tao Linlin, somewhat excited, asked: "What about me? Am I seeded?"

Ling Menglu smiled faintly: "Senior Tao, you are not."

Tao Linlin’s face fell with disappointment. He thought that due to Soul Temple’s low number of participants and his own cultivation being at 7th Rank, he could secure a seed spot. It turned out that he had no chance at all.

Long Kongkong chuckled, "The seed is here. I must certainly be a seed, right, cousin?"

Ling Menglu nodded, "You are the second seed of Knights Temple."

"What? Not the first? My brother is not in the Knights Temple, and I’m not the first?" Long Kongkong looked shocked. He wasn’t surprised that he was a seeded player but he had acquired the Adamantine Cathedra battle armor, deemed the predecessor of the strongest, Fear and Sorrow God’s Seal Cathedra Rex!

Ling Menglu said: "You are not the first. The first is someone else. You’d better not get too complacent."

Long Dangdang asked: "Who is the top seed?"

Ling Menglu replied: "It’s Shi Zeyu. The Sacred Legate’s Descendant. He is the most outstanding heir of the younger generation in the Shi family. The Shi family is among the strongest families in your Knights Temple. He’s also an Adamantine Cathedra knight. He’s a little older than us, 27."

Long Dangdang nodded quietly.

Ling Menglu smiled: "Do you want to know if you’re a seed?"

Dang shook his head, chuckling: "I shouldn’t be, right? After all, I haven’t made much of an impression in magic." He had some idea. If it were in the Knights Temple, he was confident he would be one of the seeded players. But in the Magic Temple, things were different.

Ling Menglu nodded, confirming: "True, you’re not. Senior Yue Li from the Magic Temple is the sixth seed. If you were to participate under the name of Magic Demigod Wu Di’s disciple, you might have been a seed."

Long Dangdang smiled: "Regardless of whether we are seeds or not, the main thing is to defeat the other opponents in the end. Besides, I’m curious, were the others seeded?"

Ling Menglu confirmed with a nod.

"Zisang is the first seed in the Magic Temple. Chu Yu is also the first seed, Tang Leiguang is the second seed, and Caijuan is the third seed."

Upon hearing that Cai Caijuan was only the third seed, Tao Linlin’s face instantly changed, "Cai Caijuan is only the third seed? Who are the top two seeds then?"

Ling Menglu explained: "Those are people we’re not familiar with, one is 28 and the other 29. They both seem to be 8th Rank. Despite the Soul Temple having fewer participants this time, their power is not to be underestimated."

"Eight... Eighth... Eighth Rank..." Tao Linlin immediately looked distressed. Summoners differed from other professions, as the rank and spiritual power directly determined the strength of their summoned beasts and the number of beasts they could summon! The difference between the seventh and eighth rank was not minor. Moreover, he didn’t have any powerful equipment, so leveling up seemed nearly impossible.

Long Dangdang smiled: "We’re doing pretty well. Out of the seven of us, four are seeded players." He didn’t ask about Ling Menglu’s ranking in Priests Temple, and neither did the others, because there was no need to. If a Goddess isn’t a first seed, who can be? Even a Cardinal Bishop of the 8th Rank might find it hard to beat her now that she has the Light God’s Physique, Wisdom Spirit Furnace, and Epic Class equipment.

Seeded players not only implies they can skip one round, it also means that their respective temples have acknowledged them. They stand a high chance of being among the top 6 of their own temples. To stand out from over 300 participants and enter the final round of 36 signifies that they have received the legacy. In the future, they are certain to receive focused training from their respective temples.
