Birth of the Lord of Nature
Ch73-In the Beginning of the Competition
The day went so fast, it did not feel today exactly where the imperial competition would be held soon.
Seen in every corner of the city was already filled by cultivators from various groups as well as ordinary people who came to the Capital specifically to watch the competition.
" I heard that Sun Ming and Liang Gu of the Eternal Heaven Sect have reached King 2." Said someone who was heading towards the competition arena.
" It's not just those who have reached the king level, which I know every great Sect each has now had a genius who is at the King realm" said his colleague.
" If I prefer We Lin from the Peach Flower Sect, she is so strong and beautiful." The others chimed
" But We Lin won't choose you." Said his partner.
" Let it be, what harm did I admire We Lin the Goddess of Peach Flowers." Answer with cynicism.
Everyone has their own heroes, they are all willing to travel far just to see the imperial competition held every five years.

Xu Tian was now heading to the place where the competition would be conducted with the Xu clan.
" Sister.it turns out to be so crowded." Xu Mei said as she looked along the street filled with people from various walks of life.
" Of course, since this was the biggest competition in the Qing empire held once every five years." Xu Tian replied with an amused smile looking at his sister's level.
" Will I be able to enter this competition?"
" Em. according to brother no, because if Mei'er comes along then no one will be able to defeat. Isn't it free?"
Xu Mei then silently tried to digest her brother's words.
" Sister is right, maybe the one who is my age is only Mei'er who is cultivating." Xu Mei said as she realized why her brother had said such a thing earlier.
Others can only smile listening to their conversation.

Upon arrival at the battle arena, the other Xu Tian immediately headed for the place already provided.
Seen there have been many other participants who have also been in their respective places.
" Isn't he Liang Gu of the Eternal Heaven Sect?" Show one of the spectators in the stands.
" You're right, he's Liang Gu a rival of Sun Ming." Answer the young man next to him.
" Aren't they both from the Eternal Heaven Sect?"
" It is true, but they are still competing to become the number one genius in the Sect."
Not only had the Eternal Heaven Sect come, the other great Sects had been in place by bringing in the geniuses they had.
Such as Sun Ming and Liang Gu of the Eternal Heaven Sect, We Yan and We Lin of the Peach Flower Sect, Ma Guang and He Liu of the Single Sword Sect, respectively, Li Fang and Biao Lin from the Cloud Sect.
Not only from the big sects, the middle and small sects also participated in the competition.
As for the clans participating in the competition there were the Xu Clan, Xia Clan, Yan Clan, Shen Clan, Hu Clan, Cao Clan, Chu Clan, Ye Clan, Yuan Clan, Wu Clan, the Chen Clan. Which represented several cities that were in the Qing empire.
" Since the initial match is a group fight, so the five of you head to the seats already provided." Said Xu Yuan looking towards Xu Feng, Xu Han, Xu Cang, Xu Meng, and Xu Ying.
" Good Patriarch.." They said in unison and then bowed respectfully to the other elders.
" Don't force yourself." Said elder Xu Peng who was nodding his head by his five.
" Sister.." Said Xu Feng looking towards Xu Tian who was still closing his eyes.
" Do your best." Said Xu Tian who then opened his eyes to look at the five of them.
The five of them then immediately descended towards the special room of the participants, with determination and vigor.
" I won't let you guys down, and I'll prove that the Xu Clan isn't an easy clan to be kicked out of." The five of them.
All participants have now separated themselves to the place that has been provided by the organizer.
Not long after came a grown man with a piece of paper in his hand.
" Well, since you've all gathered here, then I as the referee leading the match will explain what rules you should know.."
" In the imperial competition will be divided into two categories, namely group fights and Individual fights, for the first fight we will start with a group fight consisting of five people in each of its representatives. The fight will start with five groups that will directly climb to the top of the arena to fight, of the five groups will leave one group that will qualify for the next phase."
" Until the battle leaves twenty groups, only after that you will fight each other with group A and group B until it continues to be a group of eleven, five groups, and more, and so on until one of the groups becomes the winner."
" There are some rules that you must understand and abide by, first, you must not use any type of pill when the fight is starting because anyone who violates will be disqualified directly. Second, you must not use two weapons at once in battle and can only use one weapon. And for the last time you're all forbidden from killing each other, using any kind of poison that could endanger the lives of others."
" For your own gifts you all must have known it, for the imperial side has told you about the prize you received when you became a champion."
For the gifts themselves the empire had written on the invitation letter that had previously been spread, so they had all known it, what would they get if they became champions.
The referee then stopped his words, the referee looked at Emperor Qing Jiang who was also in a special place with his family who were accompanied by the imperial officials.
Understanding the meaning of the referee's gaze, Emperor Qing Jiang then nodded his head.
" Well, there's no need to linger, because I know that you're impatient. Then I hereby announce the Empire Competition Is Starting!"
Rumbling sounds rang out at every corner of the spectator bench as the referee finished saying if the imperial competition was in noble.
" Come the Eternal Heaven Sect!"
" Come Single Sword Sect!"
" We Yan I love you!"
" We Lin you're my angel!
The cries of the spectators rang out, they all shouted at each other the names of their heroes, and even many youths came over wanting to see only the geniuses from the majority-Women Peach Flower Sect.
