Heart Cultivation

Everyone was getting ready to witness horrible battles, they were not here to cheer for the top three, they were here to get some understanding of the higher level dominions clashes.

Li Jun and first disciple were ready to face their opponents.

The Cultivators who were defeated in the previous battles and wanted to spectate last battles choose to stay and wait, they wanted to witness these fierce battles and learn.

Perhaps they could find their flaws and weaknesses through these battles.

First two contestant, fourth and fifth ranking holders all belong to powerful Cultivation schools and sons of most prestigious families, their Manias were strong to nourish such strong contestants.

The most frightful aspect was their backing, their Golden Legend Realm ancestors were a strong force for them to continue and advance on this path.

They were preparing their sons for sole purpose and it was to fight for the highest position of this sphere.

The fair compet.i.tion was set to find out true talent and strong contender fairly eligible for the highest position, the position of the Defender was about to renew, one hundred and fifty years was a limit for this position.

No personal was to violate this tradition else there would be internal rebellion and instability in the Celestial Sphere.

A genius Cultivator usually takes seventy five years of life to reach Golden Legend Realm if he was fortunate enough among thousands and thousands learners.

And this age was considered peak youthful age to fight for this position.

Another one hundred and fifty years can be said that the position was under strong hands.

A Golden Legend Realm Cultivator usually has over three hundred years until they reach the end of lifespan or they were considered age old.

A Defender can only take strong hold till his strength peak years end and then someone else would succeed this position.

The present Defender was responsible to handover this position to a suitable contender, he cannot inherit this position to his family just because he was strong enough to go beyond rules.

But the crucial point was to find the best and strongest contender not a weakling, the one should meet all parameters set for this position.

The first parameter was a little difficult, the contestant at least should hold one strongest Attribute that could be feared in the upper Sphere, this was the reason Xuan Rong succeeded this position years ago despite the fact that he belong to a lower Sphere.

"She is also a contestant, I don"t think she can only relay on her backing to win battles, in my view she became rapscallion because she wanted to prove herself, if this is right then the battles would remain fair and let"s see if she could win or not," the youth spoke while he was checking whether the authorities issued the schedule for final battles.

"Did you forget how Xuan Rong appear and killed Lupa?" the elder was worried.

He cannot neglect the possibility of Xuan Rong showing unfair means just to let his descendant succeed his position.

It was not entirely impossible, the l.u.s.t of power and position was not new to this world.

Cultivators could do anything to get in power and position.

But he was not completely familiar with the personality of Xuan Rong, he only heard few rumors about him and his present fear was based on these rumors, his opponents usually call him arrogant but that was not truth, he just cannot let evil people wander around and harm weaklings of Celestial Sphere.

He was responsible for the safety of majority of innocents of Celestial Sphere from the cruel people.

Of course who could have spread these rumors other than his enemies?

I also spectate that battle, the girl fairly won the battle then why Lupa came in between to kill her? He was at fault and if Xuan Rong has have lazed to reach and save his grand daughter then it would have been the most unfair battle in the history of Celestial Sphere," the youth shared his view.

He was not biased.

He could see and decide who was at wrong lines, a Green Sage was attacked by a Golden Legend Expert, if this was fair then there was nothing unfair in this world, if her mentor has not showed up courage earlier, not even her ashes be found in next few moments.

"If you have this confidence then I feel at ease," the elder patted his shoulder.

Tong Ban was Legend Realm contestant and he was currently at the fourth ranking, the elder who spoke with him earlier was his uncle, he was among the contenders who fought for the previous Supreme Existence Trials hundred and twenty years ago, when he lost against Xuan Rong, he accepted wholeheartedly that he was defeated with fair means, Xuan Rong indeed was powerful.

He then went back in his Manias and started to live a moderate life, when he heard that his nephew was a genius, he start to guide him and thought that perhaps his nephew could win and become Defender.

The present scenario was unexpected turn of events, he never thought that Xuan Rong would be biased ever but after talking to his nephew, he believed that Xuan Rong would not resort to such means.

He was giving his special attention to his nephew because he noticed that his nephew choose Supreme Heart Cultivation as his future path.

He intended to tell him once they go back to their home.

This secret should not leak out else there would be a huge threat hanging on his head.

Once hidden powers come across this truth, they won"t bother what was fair or unfair.

But the problem was his age, he felt that he would not be able to further guide his nephew, the serious injury which he got in his youth finally showed up the fatal signs and he was declining too early.

Perhaps his ending years has come.

"Tong Ban, you are not aware the ways of this world, you should make yourself more strong and proud of your home and Manias," the elder advised him.

The last day, Li Jun and first disciple came looking for Jen, they wanted to share their experience and get pointers for the battles.

Li Jun was prepared by his school but first disciple was learning alone so he needed some advise too.

Jen has already stood up and changed her dress, she was ready to face her opponent in the battles.

Whoever appeared on top ten ranking among thousands was a star, when they reached at the eatery, the Cultivators paid special attention to them.

Jen thought to talk and eat around the table but who would have thought that they would be surrounded with stares.

"Senior Jen, you are currently at the peak of Crown Sage but the opponents are all Legend Realm contestant, how you will face your opponent?" Li Jun was worried.

Though these all Legends recently breakthrough this Realm and they were not that strong and stable, the three months was not enough to let them stable their breakthrough, they were still newbies to understand the strength behind this Realm but what was important was their Realm difference, she was under Sage Realm.

"I don"t feel that anyone would argue because I am someone with the support of Attribute and Apt.i.tude, and already at the peak of Crown Sage, there was not much difference to be either at the peak of Crown Sage or in the unstable Legend Realm," she explained, there was not big difference but if considered it was.

Li Jun was not satisfied with her explanation, there were others who learned attributes or apt.i.tude, there were those who learned stronger techniques to render helpless any Attribute or Apt.i.tude.

She can"t simply turn a blank eye on this aspect, right?

"Senior, did you get back your armor dress?" first disciple reminded her.

"I forgot let"s get back, tomorrow is the first battle, I should not delay anymore," Jen stood up.

The announcement for the battle ranking would be late noon, people were buying slots to spectate these battles, few were eager and spent extra money to buy full audience seats.

They were mostly stronger and above Legend level, this was rule that no lower level spectators were allowed to witness battles closely.

Someone was here to spectate, it was not human but belonged to the strongest race of flying beasts.

Sky Thunder Martinet brought it"s young female child, she insisted to see human in her final battles.

Sky Thunder Martinet was the only race of beasts who were allowed to hold a separate home for beasts, a powerful Manias where all types of beasts reside under the order of Sky Thunder Martinet.

The compet.i.tion grounds were again bustling with crowd of spectators, the warden guards were floating above on the guardian beasts.

They were making sure that Cultivator won"t create unease and personal mess.
