Chapter 1757 Raskran Continent
Rean explained to Luina what he believed those floating spheres were there for, which surprised the girl. She wasn"t an idiot, so she could guess that the compet.i.tion would happen throughout the whole continent as well. "Then... just how long would such a compet.i.tion last?"
"No idea," Rean said in response. "We still don"t even know what we"re going to do here. Besides, that"s not the only formation running at the moment. There"s another one which I believe covers the entire continent as well."
Rean received that information from Sister Orb, though. [I"m not sure what this formation does. However, it has something to do with your badges. It seems like these badges you guys got before coming here have some other uses.]
Rean couldn"t tell what it was, so he decided to wait for Hilanshi to answer that question.
At the center of Lisoc City, the twins" group noticed a huge castle, which seemed to be used by the royalty of this country. In the twins" eyes, it was as big as the Sasamil Empire palace back in Sunkan Planet.
However, as they made their way through the city, Rean and the others noticed something. First, it was the people. Everyone there seemed to look at them with hostility, although none of them dared to do anything.
The next thing they noticed was the average cultivation level. They couldn"t find a single person or demon beast above the Nascent Soul Realm or Stage Five in cultivation. For a city of this size, especially considering it was located at the center of the Realm of G.o.ds, such a thing should be impossible.
After a while, Hilanshi brought everyone into a big hall, where a banquet was prepared for them. Well, to be more specific, it was prepared for Hilanshi. Above the hall, there was another huge sphere, similar to the ones floating in the air. The only difference was that it wasn"t ethereal but very much tangible. "Alright, you guys can also have a meal. Fortunately, we got here just in time for the start of the compet.i.tion. In a few hours, the Rembram Sect Master will appear in the sphere above you to explain how it"ll work. You should be grateful. To use these spheres for communication, a lot of Rank Seven Divine Stones are necessary due to the distance of the message. This is really expensive, and you probably won"t see it being used again in your lives."
Rean mentally snorted in response. If they had his communication system, such a thing wouldn"t be expensive at all. If anything, communication at long distances was already considered a given to his System Sect members.
Everyone selected a table for themselves and sat down with their own subordinates. Rean and Roan took the chance to ask Luina more about the other disciples of the Jamai Sect.
"Hmm..." Luina pondered over it for a bit before pointing at three people and demon beasts in human form. "These ones are the only guys you should pay attention to."
"The first one is Olly. He"s the top disciple of our Jamai Sect and is at the Peak Stage of the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm. He"s a member of the Gla.s.s Race, which is very good at controlling Divine Energy. Obviously, one would think his weakness lies on the physical side. However, such a disciple would never become the top genius of our Jamai Sect. With that being said, Olly cultivates one of our best body cultivation techniques, the Tyrannical Iron Body. He"s already at the fifth level of that technique and would probably be even higher if his cultivation didn"t impede him from going further."
"The second one is Leticia, but she"s a friend of mine, so there"s no need to worry too much. She"s also at the Peak Stage of the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm and is very talented in controlling the elements. Of course, it goes without saying that all top disciples of the Jamai Sect here cultivate a body cultivation technique. Her own isn"t as good as Olly"s, but it"s still a high-level technique, the Water Dissolution Body. She"s at the fourth level of it."
"The last one is that guy over there, Qrimete. He"s a member of the Diamond Coral Bear Race. As you can feel from his demonic aura, he"s a demon beast, a Half-Divine Demon Beast at that. Obviously, it"s a race mostly focused on physical strength. They don"t have a need for body cultivation techniques as their own bodies are already hard enough. Then again, demon beasts usually don"t cultivate such things anyway. Once again, just that wouldn"t be enough to make it here. Since he doesn"t need to waste his time with body cultivation techniques, he can focus on the other two things that he isn"t as good at, Divine Energy and Soul Power."
"The others are also good, with many of them being a lot stronger than me. However, I truly believe that these three are the most worth paying attention to," Luina concluded.
Roan nodded after hearing that. "That"s good for now. We can learn more about the others later."
On the other hand, Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, "Well, we"re only talking about combat capabilities. We still don"t know if the compet.i.tion has anything to do with it."
Everyone continued to enjoy the banquet until finally, the sphere above their heads activated. Regardless of which side one looked at it, it seemed as if one were looking at the front of a screen. A moment later, the image of a furry old man appeared. He wasn"t a demon beast, though. Just like other humanoid races, he, too, had a few different traits that differentiated him from others. However, no one found it funny as the man"s presence alone cast a chill on everyone"s body. Without a doubt, he was the person with the highest cultivation they had ever seen. And that"s considering he wasn"t even present at the moment.
"This message is being sent to all 57 regions, so you better pay attention. Welcome to the Free Continent Compet.i.tion, previously known as Raskran Continent."
*Pin!*
As soon as the old man spoke the continent"s old name, the Soul Gem System activated.
