Master, I’ve gathered information about the Supporting Fall Nation while you were in closed-door cultivation. The city governor’s fourth son is Huang Jia Long. He’s not even 200 years old, but he’s already a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. He has mastered one triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability,
Liu Guang Lin said as he looked at a tall, muscular, and handsome young man who looked to be only a few years older than Duan Ling Tian,
His innate talent is peerless in the central area’s borders. Naturally, this doesn’t include you and Miss Huan’er.

Although Huan’er was given a Celestial Weapon that could conceal her true age by Pei Yuan Ji, Liu Guang Lin knew about Huan’er’s true age from Duan Ling Tian.
Liu Guang Lin continued to say,
City Governor Huang’s fifth son is Huang Jia Chao… He’s 10 years younger than Huang Jia Long, but he’s also a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. He has mastered a triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method and is close to mastering a triple-trait Duke Grade Divine Ability. The two brothers are two of the five most famous Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the Supporting Fall Nation. Many people expect them to rank in the top nine of the Southern Heaven Combat.

‘Their innate talents are good.’ Duan Ling Tian instinctively turned to look at Huang Jia Long and Huang Jia Chao. During his time in the borderlands, he had never met anyone with such high innate talent like the two brothers.
‘The Southern Heaven Combat has no age restrictions… There must be a lot of people who have been peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials for a long time and have participated many times in the Southern Heaven Combat. These people must have mastered all sorts of Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities.’ Duan Ling Tian knew the possibilities for a Celestial were endless as long as said Celestial did not die. Even a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial with ordinary talent would achieve many things after a long time.
At this moment, another commotion broke out among the spectators as another group of people took their seats in the VIP area that was located to the left and right of the seats of the Supporting Fall Nation’s Imperial family. The important personages were mostly city governors and their entourage. The clans and sects in the Supporting Fall Nation were mostly mediocre, and thus, were not seated in the VIP area.
Duan Ling Tian closed his eyes to rest as he sighed inwardly. ‘I’m so close to breaking through and becoming a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial… It looks like I have no choice but to rely on the power granted by the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon during the Southern Heaven Combat.’
After a few moments…

The Imperial family is here!

Duan Ling Tian opened his eyes as an unknown voice rang in the air.
A dignified and tall middle-aged man dressed in golden robes that was embroidered with a dragon was escorted by a group of people as he flew to his seat.
The seats reserved for the Imperial family were less than 10% of the ordinary seats.

Greetings, Your Majesty!

The people in the VIP seats stood up and bowed in unison.
On the contrary, where Duan Ling Tian was seated, the people did not rise to their feet to greet the emperor at all. They were mostly sectless cultivators, after all.

That’s Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation. He’s a Celestial King…


The green-clad young man sitting next to the emperor must be the fourth prince. He’s the most talented among all the princes, right?


That’s right. Hu Jin Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation, is the most talented among the princes!!


Hu Ji Yong is a truly outstanding talent. He’s also a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial even though he’s only slightly above 200 years old. Not only has he mastered a triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability, but he has also mastered an assistive Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability.


Although the fourth prince’s innate talent isn’t as high as the two young masters from Passage City, he’s slightly stronger than the two young masters!


There’s no doubt the fourth prince and the two young masters from Passage City will rank in the top nine of the Southern Heaven Combat.

As the spectators discussed among themselves, Duan Ling Tian turned to look at Hu Jin Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation.
Hu Jin Yong seemed aloof and indifferent to his surroundings as he closed his eyes while seated next to Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation.
At this moment, Hu Lin Yi suddenly disappeared before everyone’s eyes. A gentle breeze stirred in the air as he reappeared in the sky above the seats reserved for the Imperial family. He looked down and briefly swept his eyes across his surroundings before he began to speak.
I believe everyone knows about the Southern Heaven Combat so I won’t go into it. I’ll briefly talk about the rules and regulations of the Southern Heaven Combat now. The Southern Heaven Combat has nine battlefields… Participants are allowed to select among the nine battlefields. Whoever wins will become the ringmaster. Each participant is given nine opportunities to challenge the ringmasters… However, once you lose, you’re not allowed to challenge the same battlefield again. The participants who still remain on the nine battlefields at the end of the Southern Heaven Combat will be granted access to the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Last but not least, the use of Celestial Talismans, killing, deliberate maiming, and continuous assault after the opponent has surrendered are prohibited during the Southern Heaven Combat.

‘It seems like the beams of lights mark the range of each battlefield… Does this mean if the participant is chased out or voluntarily steps out from the range of the light, it would be considered as a loss?’ Duan Ling Tian looked at the battlefields upon hearing Hu Lin Yi’s words.
The nine beams of light illuminated the nine battlefields respectively. Each beam of light was roughly 100 meters in diameter.
‘This isn’t so bad… I’ll attack after everyone has stopped attacking. I’ll only need to fight once to secure a place to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up. He had been worried about one-on-one battles. However, it seemed like his worries were unfounded.
Liu Guang Lin said with a frown,
It seems like it’ll be disadvantageous to those who start the competition as ringmasters… They’re at risk of overconsuming their Celestial Origin Energies and fighting with injuries sustained from previous battles…
He felt the rules were rather unfair.
As soon as Liu Guang Lin finished speaking, a middle-aged man sitting behind him asked with a smile on his face,
My friend, this must be your first time attending the Southern Heaven Combat, right?

Liu Guang Lin turned around and nodded.
Yes.


At the end of each challenge, the ringmasters are given ample time to recuperate, and Duke Grade medicinal pills by the Imperial Family of the Supporting Fall Nation are given to restore their Celestial Origin Energies. If the ringmaster is hurt, the Imperial Family will provide him with medicinal pills according to the severity of his or her injuries. A Duke Grade medicinal pills for mediocre injuries and King Grade medicinal pills for severe injuries. It’ll only take Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials a short time to recover from their injuries after taking the King Grade medicinal pills so long they aren’t crippled. Even if the ringmasters are gravely injured, they’ll be given ample time to recover to their peak condition. Therefore, there’s no need to worry about unfairness in the Southern Heaven Combat… In fact, there are lots of precedents where the ringmasters’ cultivation bases improved on the battlefield,
the middle-aged man explained in one breath.
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, seven figures flew out and occupied the battlefields.
