At the entrance, two lively figures stood still.
It was none other than the sisters Qing Shihua and Qing Shiyu.
It must be said that although Qing Shihua and Qing Shiyu were sisters with somewhat similar appearances, their auras were entirely different.
Qing Shihua was like a lily in a painting, exuding a gentle and serene aura.
Qing Shiyu, on the other hand, was like a lotus, rising pure from the mud, brimming with vitality.
Qing Shiyu walked up step by step, hands behind her back, and circled Ye Wushuang twice before asking, “When did you become so formidable?”
To be honest, Qing Shiyu had thought that while Ye Wushuang could kill Qin Ming and others, facing Liu Huan Yu would be a challenge.
Who would have thought that he not only killed Liu Huan Yu but also slew Liu Yiyu?
“Haven’t I always been this strong?” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “But you’ve made quite a bit of progress yourself.”
Hearing this, Qing Shiyu expressed her discontent, “Compared to others, it’s fast, but compared to you, it feels so slow.”
“Ye Wushuang, didn’t you say that a Pure Yuan Spirit Body naturally harmonizes with spiritual energy, and my realm would rise even without cultivation?”
“Yes, that’s true…”
“So why, despite my focused cultivation, does my realm not seem to rise as fast as yours?”
…
Qing Shiyu lamented, “You’re now at the third tier of the Yuanfu Realm, and I’m still at the third tier. It’s too slow…”
Hearing this, Wang Xueqi and the others were left speechless, feeling rather disheartened.
In the entire territory of Qingyun Empire, how many could match Ye Wushuang’s rate of improvement?
Qing Shiyu’s progress was already astonishing, yet she still wasn’t satisfied?
It truly was a case of comparison being the thief of joy.
Qing Shihua stepped forward at this moment and said with a smile, “Congratulations to you.”
“By killing Liu Yiyu this time, it seems you’ve earned a place among the top ten prodigies of the Heavenly Academy.”
“Even Ye Wentian back in the day couldn’t achieve being among the top ten prodigies at the third tier of the Yuanfu Realm!”
Ye Wushuang nodded and smiled.
Qing Shihua continued, “But from now on, you need to be careful!”
Hearing this, everyone’s gazes turned to Qing Shihua.
“The old you seemed dangerous, but you were still at the Condensation Pulse Realm. Now that you’ve suddenly reached the third tier of the Yuanfu Realm, and even the eighth tier is no match for you, it means it’s hard for anyone at the Yuanfu Realm to kill you.”
“In the territory of Qingyun Empire, the Yuanfu Realm already represents a mid-to-high level of strength.”
“If it takes a Tian Gang Realm cultivator to kill you, then the Five Great Clans will definitely no longer be able to ignore you.”
Ye Wushuang nodded in agreement.
“Besides, there’s another thing I think you might be interested in.”
Oh?
Qing Shihua elaborated, “Qingyun Empire is located within the territory of Qingzhou, and there are no fewer than dozens of countries like Qingyun Empire across the entire Qingzhou land.”
“Moreover, the core area of the entire Qingzhou land is called Qingzhou, which is where the forces like Shengdan Sect, Jujian Sect, and Tianji Mansion are located.”
“What I’m getting at is that for many years, the Hundred Nations of Qingzhou have been holding the Hundred Nations Martial Contest!”
The Hundred Nations Martial Contest?
Ye Wushuang was genuinely unaware of this.
It seemed that there was no such event five hundred years ago.
Qing Shihua continued, “This event only started three hundred years ago. The peripheral countries of Qingzhou were constantly at war, with countless casualties.”
“You must understand that many of the core warriors within the dominant forces of Qingzhou actually originated from the Hundred Nations. With such fierce warfare, the seven dominant powers would lose many talents.”
“So later on, in order to ease the relations among the Hundred Nations and stop the incessant wars, the seven dominant powers of Qingzhou initiated this Hundred Nations Martial Contest!”
“In the past, the countries of Qingzhou would fight each other over minor disputes, but now, every four years, each empire sends its most outstanding prodigies, under the age of twenty-six and with a minimum strength of the first tier of the Yuanfu Realm, to a forbidden area in Qingzhou. These prodigies enter and engage in fierce battles with each other.”
“Based on the number and strength of the opponents from rival nations they defeat, they earn points. In the end, the top ten strongest countries are selected.”
“After the top ten countries are chosen, the other nations must offer tributes such as spirit weapons, spirit pills, and spirit materials.”
“Moreover, for the next four years, no country is allowed to launch an attack on these ten countries.”
Ye Wushuang and the others listened attentively.
Qing Shihua went on, “Originally, the Hundred Nations Martial Contest was only for the prodigies of the Hundred Nations to compete. However, after several editions, the seven dominant powers of Qingzhou realized that this kind of trial had an excellent tempering effect on the prodigies of each country and started to have some ulterior motives…”
Ulterior motives?
What kind of ulterior motives?
