Chapter 107 -Three Sects and Six Pavilions Share Ten Spots
Li Nanting nodded. “The Tournament of a Hundred Sects has been held for thousands of years in the Northern Territory. There are countless sects across the Northern Territory, but only a hundred will be invited to participate, and each one receives just ten slots.”
Li Guanqi furrowed his brows, puzzled. “A hundred sects... that’s up to a thousand participants. This tournament will be grand.”
Li Nanting nodded with a smile. “That’s right. It is indeed a very grand event. It’s a ranked competition, and the top hundred participants receive generous rewards, increasing with rank. The prizes come directly from the Heavenly King of the Eastern Territory, Long Qu. And the sects of the top fifty contestants will be handsomely rewarded as well.”
Li Guanqi fell silent. He knew that the more generous the rewards for a tournament, the more intense the competition would be.
He turned to Gu Ran beside him. “Senior Sister Gu, has the Daxia Sword Sect participated in the tourney before?”
Gu Ran hesitated, then gave a frank nod. “We have.”
“What was the last result?”
Li Nanting gave a sheepish cough. “Ahem... Our sect placed eighty-sixth.”
They felt a wave of embarrassment.
“...Isn’t that basically last place?” Li Guanqi had prepared himself for poor results, but it was worse than he thought.
