Why Did You Provoke Him? All His Disciples Have the Potential to Become Emperors!

229: Players enter”Elder Liu Chen, do you still remember me? Back when you achieved your Breakthrough to the Saint Realm, I specifically came here to congratulate you.”

The smile on the Green Silk Sect Elder’s face grew even brighter. He thought the other party was greeting him, and a radiant smile immediately appeared on his face.

Upon hearing this, Li Haotian couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth, a helpless smile appearing on his face.

There are countless misunderstandings in this world, but to be mistaken about something like this really opened his eyes.

Does he even know you? You have absolutely no self-awareness. A piece of trash from the Lüluo Sect actually dares to fantasize that a Prodigy from the Divine Mirror Sect would remember someone who once gave him a gift.

It is simply absurd.

Li Haotian curled his lip and ignored the other party. Liu Chen frowned slightly, paying no heed.

The Green Silk Sect Elder did not feel embarrassed at all; instead, he put on a bright smile and began bragging to the people beside him.

”Did you see that? Elder Liu Chen just greeted me. Although his response was to deeply frown, it is clear he is guiding me. He can see that my Cultivation has reached a Bottleneck recently, and he will probably send me some treasures to help me Cultivate in a moment.”

The Powerhouses from other Sects listening on the side looked puzzled. Was this guy overthinking things a bit too much?

The sincerity with which he spoke made it seem as if it were truly going to happen, instantly causing those present to develop a strange illusion.

”What are those expressions? You have to believe me, we have a very good relationship. When he had his Breakthrough, I traveled thousands of miles from the Green Clouds to come here and congratulate him. I gave him quite a few Magic Treasures and resources during his Breakthrough, and since then, we have formed a bond of goodwill.”

The Green Silk Sect Elder explained his actions while speaking. Some people actually believed his words, showing smiles and nodding. Seeing someone agree with him, he immediately became even more enthusiastic.

Li Haotian did not listen to this guy’s boasting. Instead, he scanned the crowd. Among the top hundred Sects, he only saw ninety Powerhouses, which proved that a full ten Sects had been wiped out.

The Heavenly Profound Sect, led by Li Haotian, had wiped out seven Sects at once. Adding in the previously destroyed Hundred Ghosts Sect, under normal circumstances, the prestige of the top hundred Sects is very powerful, and ordinary Sects would never dare to provoke them.

If the Heavenly Profound Sect hadn’t been provoked this time, they wouldn’t have lost so many Sects all at once.

Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Li Haotian. Since those people came to provoke him, he couldn’t just stand there doing nothing, watching them quietly.

If someone rides on your head to defecate, they must pay the price; otherwise, wouldn’t the Heavenly Profound Sect be at the mercy of others in the future?

Soon, the details of this Grand Competition were arranged, divided into two stages in total.

The first is individual combat conducted in the Arena, followed by group combat conducted in the Secret Realm.

Individual combat has basically been a standard item in previous years. As for group combat, it is different every time; it is either a Secret Realm or a group Arena battle.

In any case, this year is no different from usual; it still tests the strength of the Disciples.

Li Haotian picked up the list of participants and checked the draw results. His four Disciples were all assigned to different competition zones. These four were the main force he had brought this time.

They would not meet before the finals.

Li Haotian nodded in satisfaction. The number of Disciples he brought was not large; 37 participants meant that 63 of them did not come.

The opponents of these 63 people were automatically considered to have advanced.

It was equivalent to not needing to fight an opponent in the first round, directly obtaining a spot to advance.

Seeing their Disciples draw a spot to advance, those small Sects immediately wore radiant smiles on their faces.

This Grand Competition almost drew all the Sects in the Heavenly Domain to participate. Even those Sects that were currently at war with other Sects sent their own Disciples and Powerhouses, wanting to compete for a good ranking.

A higher ranking means less tax paid to the Fissure of the Ten Great Powers.

A lower ranking corresponds to higher taxes.

If they wanted their Sect to pay less tax and allow their Disciples to have more resources to Cultivate, they had to work hard.

Only after their Sect’s ranking was high could they achieve this; otherwise, a large amount of resources would have to be handed over.

There were once some Sects that were dissatisfied with their ranking and unwilling to hand over their resources, so the Ten Great Powers joined forces to wipe them out. Since then, all the major Sects in the Heavenly Domain began to follow the rules.

Someone had to eat the crab before everyone else knew if it was poisonous. When the first person ate it and dropped dead, no one dared to try again.

Li Haotian looked indifferently at the group of Disciples he had brought and distributed their individual rankings and nameplates.

They belonged to the Ten Great Powers, so theoretically, their opponents would not be particularly strong, because people from the Ten Great Powers basically survive until the end.

The Disciples of each Great Power would be in different competition zones and would only meet in the finals.

If they wanted to achieve excellent results, the Disciples had to be ranked high and win multiple times.

This Grand Competition follows a point system; defeating an opponent earns one point. Once defeated, one cannot participate in subsequent battles, and the points will neither increase nor decrease.

The decision Li Haotian made earlier was correct; he did not send a large number of Disciples here to be cannon fodder.

Now, what he had to do was win this Grand Competition. If he could succeed, he would receive massive rewards.

For the individual competition, there should be no problem for his Disciples to successfully become the champion. As long as every contestant who makes it to the finals defeats their opponent, the points can be multiplied by 10.

With such powerful Disciples, facing these Powerhouses would be easy.

The Grand Competition first started with Sects ranked between one thousand and ten thousand. Li Haotian watched the battles between them, and a smile couldn’t help but appear on his face, because for him, such battles were simply too low-level and too childish.

The Disciples sent by the Sects ranked around ten thousand were basically at the Foundation Establishment level. They were like performers sent to showcase the style of their Sect through their own efforts, though their rankings would not change much.

To only barely reach Foundation Establishment at 100 years old, the Heavenly Profound Sect wouldn’t even recruit such talent in its branch Sects.

This was simply too pathetic.

The battles between them proceeded quickly, basically just exchanging a few moves and going through the motions. The real highlight was yet to come. A week passed in a flash, and after these Sects finished their battles, the rankings from 1,000 to 10,000 were recalculated, followed by the battles for the top 1,000.

Little Fatty Bai and the others stretched their muscles and arrived at their corresponding resting area according to their seats. From here, they could see the situation on the Arena and the surrounding audience, with an excellent view.
