Qing Shihua spoke with a hint of helplessness, “Dominions like the Heavenly Mechanism Bureau, the Holy Elixir Sect, and the Colossal Sword Order, witnessing the significant growth of the young elites from the Hundred Nations through their trials and fierce battles, and seeing their eventual great achievements, decided to… start allowing their own disciples to participate as well.”

Qing Shiyu exclaimed in surprise, “Isn’t that cheating?”

The young elites of the Hundred Nations battling each other was still relatively fair. However, the seven dominant powers were already supreme entities towering above the Hundred Nations. If their disciples at the Yuanfu Realm joined in, wouldn’t the young elites of the Hundred Nations be squeezed out?

“Initially, many empires chose to withdraw,” Qing Shihua continued. “But later, the seven dominant powers came up with a solution together.”

A solution?

Qing Shihua smiled and said, “The Hundred Nations Tournament, held every four years, saw the participation of hundreds of geniuses from various empires, as well as the Yuanfu Realm geniuses from the seven dominant powers. This indeed put immense pressure on the young talents of the Hundred Nations.”

“But later, the seven dominant powers jointly decided that during each Hundred Nations Tournament, each of them would offer a piece of treasure—whether it be a spiritual weapon, a divine pill, or a sacred artifact—something of extraordinary value, at least surpassing the heavenly grade, as a reward!”

Qing Shiyu was taken aback and asked, “Reward to whom?”

“To the top seven on the slaughter list throughout the tournament,” Qing Shihua replied.

Hearing this, Qing Shiyu was puzzled and asked, “So the Hundred Nations were willing to participate again?”

Qing Shihua glanced at her sister. The Hundred Nations Tournament was such a significant event that royal children would learn about it from a young age, yet Qing Shiyu seemed to know nothing about it. Sensing her sister’s reproachful gaze, Qing Shiyu gave a timid smile.

“Many empires were initially on the fence, but after the seven dominant powers sent their disciples to participate for the first time and offered seven valuable rewards, many empires could no longer sit still and joined in one after another!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but laugh and said, “But usually, by the end of the Hundred Nations Tournament, the top seven on the slaughter list are mostly from the seven dominant powers, right?”

“Indeed,” Qing Shihua agreed. “But even so, there are exceptions. After all, occasionally a dark horse will emerge from the Hundred Nations, outshining the elites of the seven dominant powers and claiming the reward.”

“Hence, hundreds of empires still choose to participate!”

So that’s how it is.

Everyone present suddenly realized with a start.

Qing Shihua looked at Ye Wushuang again and said, “Generally speaking, it is unclear how many people each empire can send. No one will know until the Hundred Nations Tournament begins.”

“In my opinion, this time our Qingyun Empire should be able to send out more than ten people!”

There are naturally many Yuanfu Realm warriors within the major empires. However, those under the age of twenty-six are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

“Being able to clash with the young elites of the Hundred Nations and directly confront the prodigies of the seven dominant powers in Qingzhou, Ye Wushuang, aren’t you tempted?”

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “I am somewhat tempted, but for now, I still need to stay with the Ye family.”

Upon hearing this, Qing Shihua couldn’t help but say, “You don’t plan to participate? If you do, you might have a chance to obtain one of the seven rewards!”

“Moreover, the Yuanfu Realm prodigies from the Heavenly Mechanism Bureau and the Holy Elixir Sect will definitely join. Killing these people would be far more satisfying than killing the young elites of the Five Great Families…”

After all, the Five Great Families were only secondary players in the downfall of the Ye clan back then. The real masterminds were the Holy Elixir Sect and the Heavenly Mechanism Bureau!

Ye Wushuang smiled. He was indeed tempted, but with the troubles of the Five Great Families still unresolved, it would not be wise for him to leave the Qingyun Empire rashly. Moreover, he would eventually leave Qingyun Empire, and there was no need to rush.

Seeing that Ye Wushuang was not tempted, Qing Shihua felt a sense of regret. For some reason, after witnessing Ye Wushuang’s ferocious side today, she believed that if he participated in the Hundred Nations Tournament, he would surely shine brightly! Moreover, if Ye Wushuang achieved a good ranking, the Qingyun Empire might be able to enter the top ten of the strongest nations. For four years, other empires would not dare to attack the Qingyun Empire, and… it could also receive a valuable tribute from other nations, strengthening its national power!

If Ye Wushuang did not participate, it would be a loss for the Qingyun Empire.

At that moment, on the mountaintop, a flying roc spirit beast slowly descended. Li Changqing stood on the roc and looked at Ye Wushuang, saying, “Come with me!”

“What’s the matter?”

“Something has happened to that great personage!” Li Changqing said anxiously.

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s expression changed dramatically.
