Supreme Sword God

The news that Feng Wanli obtained the recognition of the Fiery Blood Demon Slaying Spear from the Holy Soul Mountain Secret Realm swept through like a storm.

The entire East Desolate City was filled with discussions about Feng Wanli.

Ten years ago, Feng Wanli visited East Desolate City, sweeping through the human prodigies of the same generation.

Having been dormant for ten years, Feng Wanli returned to East Desolate City with a record of slaying saints and now recognized by a Sacred Artifact. He is sure to make an astonishing display at the Grand Assembly of Hundred Races.

Moreover.

Just like Feng Wanli, Ye Chen from Cangzhou is an undeniable genius. At the Unity Realm, he crushed Ling Fei of the Hundred Spirits Race upon entering the city. Also, not long ago, he demonstrated extraordinary feats in the Celestial Essence Secret Realm of the True Martial Hall, crippling several powerful Heaven-Reaching Realm experts.

Even Luo Yaozu, a Celestial Seal Spirit Master at the Peak of Seven Holes Heaven-Reaching with Seven Groups of Spirit Patterns, nearly got incapacitated by Ye Chen.

Although Ye Chen’s realm is not as advanced as Feng Wanli’s, the attention he receives is no less than that of Feng Wanli!

One day remains until the Grand Assembly of Hundred Races.

Ye Chen exited the Sword Tomb, left the cultivation room, and went to Shi Fengchun’s residence to say hello.

"You came just in time, I was about to call you," Shi Fengchun said with a smile.

A moment later, a serious-looking Feng Wanli approached with the Fiery Blood Demon Slaying Spear.

"Brother Feng!" Ye Chen greeted with a smile, glancing at Feng Wanli’s long spear and said, "Congratulations on obtaining the Sacred Weapon!"

Feng Wanli replied indifferently, "When you reach sainthood, you must visit Holy Soul Mountain. I discovered a great sword there, definitely suits you!"

Shi Fengchun said lightly, "The one at the mountain top?"

Feng Wanli nodded, "I wanted to bring it out for Ye Chen, but... I couldn’t get close."

Ye Chen, looking at the taciturn Feng Wanli, was a bit surprised. Brother Feng is quite nice, thinking of giving me a share of the loot...

Shi Fengchun sarcastically said, "If you could bring that sword from the mountaintop, that would be abnormal. It’s an imperial weapon, used by the founder of the True Martial Hall, even Grand Hall Master Lingxiao, a disciple of the founder, can’t wield it!"

"Did you see that sword?"

Qiao the Sixth flashed beside them, his tone surprised, with eyes wide, staring at Feng Wanli.

Feng Wanli said, "I saw it."

Qiao the Sixth then stared at Shi Fengchun, "You’ve never been to Holy Soul Mountain, and no one has ever seen that sword or knows about it. How did you know?"

Shi Fengchun laughed, "Who said no one saw? My disciple Feng Wanli saw it, no one knows... it’s clear you, Uncle Master, know it as well!"

"I manage the Holy Soul Mountain Secret Realm, so the Grand Hall Master told me. Besides him and me, not even the Grand Elder knows about this, Shi Fengchun, explain yourself honestly!"

"I guessed." Shi Fengchun casually deflected, immediately shifting the topic, "Uncle Master, your timing is perfect. I was about to discuss the rules of the Grand Assembly of Hundred Races with them, you know better, go ahead."

Qiao the Sixth stared at Shi Fengchun.

Shi Fengchun, unfazed, continued smiling.

"After the Grand Assembly of Hundred Races, explain yourself to the Grand Hall Master!" Qiao the Sixth, finding Shi Fengchun difficult to handle, then turned to Ye Chen and Feng Wanli and said, "The Grand Assembly of Hundred Races is essentially a territorial dispute!

Foreign races are entering the territories, and this side of the Eastern Domain needs to allocate an area to them.

The approximate scope is already determined.

But the foreign races are insatiable and unsatisfied with the current situation.

Yet, the Grand Hall Master is unwilling to concede further ground.

Both sides are at an impasse, unwilling to start a war temporarily, thus deciding on this Grand Assembly of Hundred Races.

The Grand Assembly of Hundred Races involves contests among young generations under fifty from both sides, divided into four battlefields based on cultivation realms.

Sequentially, the Unity Realm, Tier Seven Spirit Master battlefield; Heaven-Reaching Realm, Tier Eight Spirit Master battlefield; Dharma Realm, Tier Nine Spirit Master battlefield; Saint Realm, Tier Ten Spirit Master battlefield!

Each battlefield fields ten representatives from both sides, ending when one side has no remaining fighters.

At the end of the battle, the number of remaining foreign races advances their territory by thousands of miles accordingly.

Similarly, if the human race wins, the number of remaining humans pushes the foreign territory back by thousands of miles.

No external force may be used in the battle.

Anyone breaking through their cultivation realm mid-battle is immediately disqualified!"

Upon hearing the rules, Ye Chen’s heart skipped a beat.

The so-called Grand Assembly of Hundred Races, he originally thought, was simply a killing spree where whoever killed the most stood out.

Turns out, it’s not like that...

One person can represent an advance or retreat of a foreign territory by ten thousand miles!

Ye Chen asked, "Are the four battlefields held simultaneously?"

Feng Wanli shook his head, "Sequentially!"

"I’m at Unity Realm, can I finish the Unity Realm battle and join the Heaven-Reaching battle?"

"Yes, lower realms can participate in higher realm battles, but not vice versa!"

"I’ll participate in two battles. In the Unity Realm battlefield, I’ll make the foreign territory retract by one hundred thousand miles," Ye Chen said seriously, "For the Heaven-Reaching Realm battlefield, I promise to make their territory retract at least ten thousand miles!"

In Unity Realm, taking on ten is absolutely within Ye Chen’s confidence.

But in the Heaven-Reaching Realm, taking on ten, Ye Chen knew, it’s no go...

After all, he couldn’t use the ancient race origin, Soldier Character Secret, or any external force now.

Qiao the Sixth nodded, knowing that even if Ye Chen didn’t say it, they’d try to persuade Ye Chen to battle twice, given everyone felt his strong combat ability directly!

"In the Saint Realm battlefield, can the foreign races really field ten? Can we field ten?" Ye Chen was puzzled, as those under fifty in the Saint Realm are rare, whether in foreign or human races!

"We’ll gather whatever we can, currently, we have only one." Qiao the Sixth said, looking at Feng Wanli, "The Hundred Spirits Race and Purple Crystal Race each have one from the foreign races...

Luckily, of the three major Celestial Races, only the Hundred Spirits Race is in the Eastern Domain; the Golden Ancient Race and Blood Tyrant Race aren’t present.

Even if we lose... the most we’d give up is two thousand miles.

We can make up for it by winning more in the other three battles!"

"I won’t lose!" Feng Wanli gripped his Fiery Blood Demon Slaying Spear tightly.

Shi Fengchun calmly said, "Just do your best."

Ye Chen continued asking, "Sixth Elder, the human side over here isn’t entirely unified. There won’t be anyone scheming on the battlefield, right? Battling foreign races is fine, but if stabbed in the back..."

Qiao the Sixth said, "To prevent such scenarios, our chosen participants are those completely trustworthy.

This means not all young talents of the Eastern Domain Human Race will fight; some have great talent and strong combat power, but if there’s any uncertainty, they won’t be put up!

This causes a serious problem; the foreign races go all out, and we..."

Ye Chen interrupted Qiao the Sixth, saying, "Better fewer reliable people than many unreliable ones."

"That’s what the Grand Hall Master thinks too," Qiao the Sixth said.

Ye Chen: "Sixth Elder, one last question: in the duels of the Grand Assembly of Hundred Races, can we kill directly?"

Qiao the Sixth’s expression turned stern, "Once out of the battlefield, no further killing is allowed.

But as long as they remain on the battlefield, surrendering is futile; you can chop them as you see fit!"

Ye Chen grinned, "Understood, I’ll return to train. Tomorrow I’ll aim to slash all Unity Realm and Heaven-Reaching Realm foreign representatives!"

"Teacher, I’ll go train too." Feng Wanli said and turned to walk away.

Qiao the Sixth looked at Shi Fengchun, saying, "There are things I shouldn’t say, in fear of shaking their confidence; tell them privately, if things are beyond control, retreat and don’t fight to the death."

Shi Fengchun chuckled, "They’ll know their limits."
