Three Weeks Later, Bai Clan, China
Five 300 metre tall towers made of different colours representing the five clans under Juanshei Sect stood around a very large podium. There was red jade, cream white, azure, maple brown and purple representing the Lu, Fang, Bai, An and Kang clans respectively.
The towers housed members of the respective clans participating in the bi-annual inter-clan tournament. Other than these people was a crowd of martial warriors that came to either watch or participate in the fore coming tournament.
A man flew out of the azure tower before standing mid-air, his arms crossed as he looked down on everyone else.
The crowd gasped in shock as they saw him.
"Heavens! He's flying! A person must reach the Sky realm before being able to fly! A Sky realm expert!"
"I can't believe that I'd see one in my lifetime"
"Unbelievable"
"Welcome everyone to the 158th inter clan tournament hosted by my prestigious Bai clan. This tournament will involve martial warriors with cultivation bases ranging from the Refinement realm to the Condensation realm. Before the martial warriors from the various clans fight, anybody within the crowd will be given the chance to demonstrate their might to us. Winners will be poached by any interested clans" Bai Long, the patriarch of the Bai clan announced.
The crowd that was initially full of shock from seeing a Sky realm expert was now bustling with activity. After all, this was the main reason for their coming.
Refinement realm martial practitioners soon got onto the podium to fight one another. Bai clan's servants worked to arrange them so that ten groups of people could fight each other at once without disturbing someone else.
"Lu Zheng, I want you to watch this tournament properly. You must soak in all battle knowledge possible before your turn comes" Lu Shantian said.
"Hmm" Lu Zheng nodded in response as he fixed his gaze on the martial warriors below. However, within ten breaths of time, he became bored.
~What a bore. How can fighting techniques be so shoddy? Soak in battle knowledge? I should teach them battle knowledge. But it's not your fault. How can you all compare with a ten million year old demon like me?~
The martial warriors commenced their battle and due to their large numbers, the whole competition took three days. During that time, Lu Shantian used every possible chance to teach Lu Zheng what he knew about fighting.
After the three days, Bai Clan's servants demolished the large podium and in its place, constructed a large void. This void was incredibly large that it resembled a dark beast lying down between the five towers.
"The competition between the external warriors has come to an end and the inter-clan tournament will soon begin. The void which you see is a separate space containing two individual realms. Each individual realm is for Refinement and Condensation realm warriors respectively. Soon, you will all be transported into the individual realms to fight" Bai Long announced.
After a few short moments, they all got transported to the individual realms where they would combat.
