As the day of the competition arrived, Long Hao and his family walk towards the town hall to register for the competition at dawn. The town hall already look full of people just trying to register their children making the queue quite long. Long Hao felt uncomfortable as he didn't really like crowded spaces or interacting with other people than his family.
"Let's go. I'll go with you to register for the competition." said Long Chen.
Long Hao then follows his father in queuing up. As he was waited for the line to move forward, there was a ruckus in front of him. Someone tried to cut the line but was scold by a women.
"Hey! Don't try to cut the queue! Go back and wait just like the others!" said the women loudly.
The one who cut the line was a man in his forties with his son. He look back and replied casually "This was my spot a moment ago. I was just going to the bathroom before this and now I'm taking it back.".
"Don't lie shithead! You think others are stupid to not know that you tried to cut in the line?! Fuck off to the back and wait like the others!" The women fumingly shout.
"The fuck did you just said to me?" glared the man.
"I said fuck off and wait dumbass." the women replied while showing him the middle finger.
"Fucking bitch!" said the man while throwing a punch towards the woman.
A fight broke out in the middle of the line making others curious about what happened. While the ones who heard them bickering already knew, the others gather around the fight and ask about what happen. Many were curious to see who will win the fight between them while there are others who started a bet.
The women dodge the fist to the right and elbow the man ribs. The man block the elbow with his hands and tried to kick the woman knee which she block the kick with her legs and continued to punch the man stomach.
While the fight happens, Long Hao and his father ignored it and continue with the queue until it was their turn to register. The queue shorten just because of the fight making it easier for him to register. It is normal for a fight to happen in this world as it held the believe of 'Might Makes Right' or 'Strong Rule Weak Obey' or 'The Strong Prevailed The Weak Stays Weak'. Well it doesn't matter to Long Hao as he won't bully anyone unless someone try to bully him.
The registration was easy as Long Hao just need to write his name and age on a piece of paper then the person who supervise the registration will check his cultivation to see if it complies with their rules. The rules of the competition stated that anyone who is under the age of 12 and had their cultivation below martial warrior level rank. The competition only bans killing and the use of strengthening pills or elixirs in the arena while other thing such as divine weapons or armors is allowed as it is considered as your own luck or strength. Well if there are others that got mutilated during the competition, they can only consider themselves unlucky and accept their fate because they are weak.
Long Hao finished his registration and walk towards his family with his dad. Then they waited while eating at a restaurant in their village for the competition to begin. After their breakfast, they walk back to the town hall and sat at the arena while waiting for the match to start. Long Hao already seated amongst the participants while waiting for his name to be called.
The competition started with a speech from the head villager and then to a representative among the representatives from the sects. The head villager is the head family of Wei clan. Each year the head villager changed between each clans to prevent any type of misuse power and making it fair amongst the clans.
"Welcome to the yearly competition of Hu village. I as your head village warmly greets all the representatives, the head of the clans, villagers and especially to the youths that join this competition." said the head villager of a man in his forties with a bald head and a goatee.
"As I won't be talking much, let me welcomed the representatives to say a word about the competition." the head villager gestured towards the representatives to the stage.
The representatives look between themselves and finally a women in his thirties walk towards the stage. As she walk, many of the villagers was shocked as she was wearing a revealing dress in red matching her red glossy lips. Some of the men can't even closed their mouth as they see the women big round breasts and plump ass. The women glared at her while some even punch their husband for showing a horny faces.
She stand on the stage and said "I will keep my words short. The prize for this winner competition is a pill of 'Qi Procuring' while the 2nd and 3rd place will received a weapon and a low footwork martial arts.".
All of them was shocked as this year prizes is more greater than last years. Many of the participants were excited while some of them already imagine themselves winning the competition. Whispers sounded through out the arena as many discuss why this year competition prizes is affluent.
She then continued after the whispers died down "The rules is as usual but this year we decided to add one more pill of 'Yearning Qi' as it will considered as a special prize to those who we deem special. It does not matter if the special one is the winner or others."
Shocked faces appeared between the audience as the women announced the special prize. This announcement were making the participants determined to win with their all as the prize can make them rank up their cultivation a lot.
Long Hao casually listened to the announcement without showing any kind of reaction that others may think that he is crazy. He didn't even care about the prize as the reason he joined the competition was to compare his strength with others and to find his weakness to fix it.
