The Divine King realm is perfect, and one can participate in the Holy Way. As long as one can take one step forward, one will reach the semi-saint realm!
But it is extremely difficult to take that step. Many people are stuck at the perfection of the God King realm. Just like Tong Yuan, Han Li, Sima Bo and others, they are all at the perfection of the God King realm, but they have never been able to achieve the semi-saint realm.
The last step blocked almost 99% of the strong men.
It is so difficult to achieve semi-sainthood, let alone achieve the realm of a true saint.
That's why everyone below a saint is an ant. No matter how many powerful God Kings there are, they will surely die when facing a saint.
Shi Tianfang has already taken that step and achieved the realm of semi-saint!
Shi Tianfang seemed not to notice the complicated expressions of Tong Yuan and others, and continued: "The rules of the Hundred Colleges Competition are jointly formulated by our eight colleges, and they will definitely ensure absolute fairness! This time, the Hundred Colleges Competition is divided into three rounds. The first round is a knockout round. Those with cultivation above the Divine King Realm can advance directly, while others need to fight. In the end, there will be 100 places in the first round, and these 100 people will have the opportunity to enter the second round.
The second round is a challenge match. A champion will be randomly generated on the stage. Every champion must go through the challenge of others and after maintaining a record of five consecutive wins, he will automatically get a spot to advance to the third round. Finally, the top 20 who get the spots will advance!
The third round is a challenge match. There are a total of twenty people who will compete and challenge each other. Everyone has to compete with the remaining dozen or so people, and the final ranking will be based on the number of wins!
Of course, everyone knows that the top ten of this Hundred Colleges Competition will be qualified to enter the Void Saint Realm, and the top 100 will also be rewarded with magical weapons, magical medicines and elixirs..."
Shi Tianfang explained the rules and rewards of the Hundred Colleges Competition.
There were three rounds in total. The rules were simple and clear, and very fair, so no one had any objections.
Moreover, when they heard Shi Tianfang talking about the Void Saint Realm, many talented disciples' eyes lit up, and each of them revealed a look of great excitement and anticipation.
It is indeed extremely difficult for a Divine King who has reached perfection to take that step and break through to the Semi-Saint realm. If there is no opportunity, it may take tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years to waste!
However, the Void Saint Realm will shorten this process by hundreds or even thousands of times. As long as one can find one's own holy path in the Void Saint Realm, it can be said that one will definitely be able to achieve the realm of semi-saint.
This is an easy road to success, so any talented and powerful person who has confidence in his or her own abilities is determined to secure a place in the Void Saint Realm.
"Now, I declare that the Hundred Colleges Competition officially begins!"
Following Shi Tianfang's final announcement, everyone began to get excited and excited.
According to statistics, there are a total of twenty-four God King-level strongmen in the eight major academies, and there are also six God King-level strongmen in other ordinary academies. These thirty God King-level strongmen can be exempted from the first round and directly advance to the second round.
As for the rest, they will compete for the remaining seventy places.
The first round of eliminations was simple and brutal. There were thousands of talented strong men in total, all of whom entered the ring for a big fight, and only the seventy people left at the end could advance!
Ling Xiao had never expected that the first round of the Hundred Colleges Competition would actually be arranged into a large melee. After all, a large melee is the most difficult to control and can easily result in casualties!
However, the Space-Time Academy seemed to have thought of this a long time ago. The arena was not big, only tens of thousands of feet in radius, and it accommodated thousands of talented and powerful people. In other words, the distance between each other was only ten feet at most. This forced them to fight. As long as they were knocked down under the arena, they would be eliminated.
Moreover, with the supervision of many deans and elders, it is stipulated that no fatal blows can be made on the stage, otherwise the candidate will be disqualified from participating in the Hundred Colleges Competition.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Shi Tianfang announced the start, except for the thirty God King realm powerhouses, everyone else jumped up and flew onto the stage.
Speaking of which, the War God Academy is still in an awkward position this time, not to mention that the Space-Time Academy, the Five Elements Academy and the Heavenly Curse Academy each have five God King-level disciples, even the Supreme Academy, the Heavenly Sword Academy, the Overlord Academy and the Great Zhou Academy each have two God King-level disciples, but only the War God Academy is pitiful, with only Zhou Daozhi.
However, Tong Yuan and Han Li looked very calm and were not worried at all because they had full confidence in Tian Gang and Ling Xiao.
"Old man Tong Yuan, hehe, the Hundred Colleges Competition has three rounds. If that little fellow named Long Aotian is eliminated in the first round, then you will definitely lose!"
Sima Bo glanced at Tong Yuan and chuckled.
"Don't worry! Long Aotian will definitely advance to the second round and sweep all the heroes in the third round!" Tong Yuan said with a faint smile, his expression extremely calm.
"You're just being stubborn! In a big fight, anything can happen!"
Sima Bo sneered.
The deans and elders of various colleges had different expressions. They had long heard about the huge gamble between the God of War College and the Heavenly Curse College. Although they didn't believe that Long Aotian could win the top spot, they were still extremely curious about the little guy named Long Aotian.
Their eyes all fell on Ling Xiao.
"Yuan Fei, tell them that if they can eliminate Long Aotian in the first round, each of them will be rewarded with a Divine King Pill!"
Sima Bo's cold voice entered Yuan Fei's sea of consciousness.
Yuan Fei was slightly stunned. Sima Bo was really generous. The Divine King Pill was a top-grade divine pill that could allow a strong man who had reached perfection in the Heavenly God Realm to instantly break through to the Divine King Realm without any side effects. He didn't expect that Sima Bo was willing to take out the Divine King Pill for that kid Long Aotian.
"good!"
Yuan Fei didn't say much, just nodded and sent a message to the five disciples of Tianzhu Academy.
"Eliminate Long Aotian? Don't worry, Big Brother, we will definitely knock him off the ring!"
The five disciples of Tianzhu Academy were all shocked and couldn't help but get excited.
"be safe!"
Yuan Fei said lightly, and then cut off the voice transmission.
"If you guys can eliminate Long Aotian, I will reward you handsomely!"
There was a golden glow in Jin Xianzong's eyes as he glanced at Ling Xiao indifferently, but his voice had already reached the ears of the five disciples of the Five Elements Academy.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother. Long Aotian will definitely not make it to the second round!"
Several disciples from the Five Elements Academy also sneered.
Shi Bufan's cold voice also reached the ears of several disciples of the Spacetime Academy: "Eliminate Long Aotian at all costs!"
"yes!"
The disciples of the Space-Time Academy also nodded in agreement.
