Chapter 217 Qualification_2
This world is not large, and there are limitations on power. The strongest can barely reach Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.
Once you reach Foundation Establishment, you are suppressed by the world, and your power cannot be enhanced. You're left to live idly.
Therefore, the ceiling in this world is the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, which is the lowest level.
Even so, the strong ones at this level, unless they retire, generally leave this world.
Thus, powerful individuals in this world are limited.
I once came first in the internal sect competition, and while rewarding me, the Sect Leader encouraged me, stating that if I reached Peak of Qi Cultivation before sixty, I would be rewarded with the invaluable Foundation Establishment Pill.
If I could successfully establish a foundation, I could leave this world and develop in a stronger world, within the Immortal Sect.
Moreover, in that world, Inner Sect disciples are all required to establish a foundation at the very least.
If you desire longevity, this is the best choice.
Han Xiaodao described a prosperous cultivation world.
Truth be told, Han Xiaodao was tempted.
After reviewing the application from the World Alliance, Han Xiaodao naturally chose to agree.
Two people arrived, one being the Holy Sanctuary Guild Third Elder, who reached Qi Cultivation Advanced, with subordinates forming the insect beast grand array, enough to combat Foundation Establishment.
This is also why they have ambitions to occupy this world.
The other came as a witness, representing the more mysterious Undying Guild, only here to witness.
No more information was available, only after qualifying can intelligence be shared.
"Holy Sanctuary Guild Third Elder, ranking among the top three strong ones?" Han Xiaodao showed interest.
Unexpectedly, just two days later, two guests arrived notified by the Celestial Net, already within the Celestial Net range.
Indeed, only two people came.
But there was also an insect beast.
Holy Dragon: Level 170. Skills: ????
Note: Name is chosen by its owner.
Called Holy Dragon, it looks just like a beetle.
After entering the Celestial Net Domain, it flew toward Han Xiaodao.
It appeared as a beetle, but its head resembled a snake's head, more like a turtle, somewhat unclassifiable.
Size comparable to an adult elephant, carrying two people, flying low over the water, quite discreetly.
One of these two, like the Holy Dragon, did not hide their level, also at Level 170, evident from evaluation, is due to symbiosis with the Holy Dragon, breaking through human limits.
It should be the Third Elder.
The other remained discreet but hid their level.
Now Han Xiaodao also grasped the technique of hiding levels, as one of the Four Extremes of the world, all have this privilege.
However, once in combat, it cannot be hidden.
Receiving guests was left to subordinates, Han Xiaodao waited here.
Drinking tea leisurely in a deck chair, teasing human-faced fruits on the tree, it was quite entertaining.
Nine Heavens, Four Seas, the two presidents and Mountain Grass among others went early to greet them, directly aboard a Little Blade Flying Ship.
"Quite the honor." Upon meeting, the Third Elder knew the so-called first from public testing didn't come. His expression immediately turned sour.
"Face means nothing, strength is the key." The other smiled, not concerned.
But the Third Elder knew, though the surface portrayed a smile, the person wasn't open-hearted.
Thinking this, he didn't mind.
Han Xiaodao didn't care about this and didn't intend to hide.
Thus, once the Flying Ship docked, many players cheered, waiting to watch the spectacle.
"Hehe, seems quite confident, not afraid of losing face." The Third Elder shook his head.
"We won't go inside; call them out, finish early and return early." The other directly spoke.
Seeing the Third Elder didn't object, they had no choice but to contact Han Xiaodao.
Such face-gaining projects Han Xiaodao found irrelevant.
High-level Qi Cultivation players couldn't help but be excited.
Therefore, the small entourage stepped out.
Back at the previous battle location, the Third Elder waited atop the Holy Dragon.
The Holy Dragon, initially elephant-sized, now only a meter long, resembling a large bench.
Moreover, its flying wings folded up, appearing like a shell, inconspicuous, with no gaps, anyone would think it's a turtle, not realizing its shell could split into wings, like a beetle.
At this time, the Third Elder was stern-faced, with uncontrollable twitching at the corners of his mouth.
No choice, surrounded by many players pointing and discussing.
Though his and his pet's levels were revealed, at Level 170, it didn't create the anticipated shock.
Instead laughed at, seeming destined to lose.
He didn't know these players, while numerous, were new to the game, not even public test players. While aware of the hundred-level bottleneck struggle, they hadn't experienced it firsthand, with a puzzling confidence.
Thus for Level 170, merely a higher level, how could it be shocking.
On the contrary, the Four Seas and Nine Heavens Guild presidents had more insight.
They started from closed tests, working hard for years, despite rumors of strong individuals in these two guilds, at Peak of Qi Cultivation.
Yet those were merely rumors, never quite believed.
Such a high-level Qi Cultivation advanced emerged, so many years, first time seeing a player at such a level.
Their minds couldn't remain calm; unfortunately, too few players felt this way.
Still here, no one cared for them, the two presidents here stayed discreet, few players paid attention.
Enduring the wait, finally saw Han Xiaodao and company come out.
"Han Xiaodao, public test first, quite enough ceremony." The Third Elder at first glance saw Han Xiaodao and company exiting, recognizing Han Xiaodao.
Clearly, he had started valuing him beforehand.
Han Xiaodao didn't mind, nor bothered to explain; those accompanying weren't any display, merely spectators.
Such opportunities, who would miss them?
"Alright, this time, let's see the strength of the public test leading force. Good tactics, Nine Heavens and Four Seas Guild respect you, but everything depends on strength, at least owning top-tier world strength qualification."
Nine Heavens and Four Seas didn't lack opportunity, but their strength wasn't enough." A player from the ever-discreet Undying Guild interrupted.
The Holy Sanctuary Third Elder helplessly glanced at him; earlier surrounded, observed like a monkey, he was enjoying among the spectators, utterly helpless.
Filled with anger, but couldn't provoke.
For this individual is the genuine bigwig.
"Get in! Strength determines the outcome." Annoyed by numerous spectators, the Third Elder shouted loudly.
"Alright then!" Han Xiaodao nodded, intending to join.
Fire Ghost and Scar-faced Ghost were present but couldn't participate. They were self-aware.
Even though Fire Ghost, after the reckless engagement earlier, truly broke through the hundred-level bottleneck, she understood.
Facing Qi Cultivation advanced, with a pet of equal level, she wasn't a match.
Desire to join fleeting.
Joining would be embarrassing.
In their awareness, only Han Xiaodao might have miracles. Though the tricks were many, with the Spirit Root, victory was uncertain.
Especially the short time in the game, a rigid flaw.
So some tension was evident.
"A Third Elder merely, king to king, general to general, I'll take this round." Suddenly Little Cultivator spoke.
Then stepped onto the stage grandly.
"Your strongest one?" The Third Elder finally noticed Little Cultivator.
Due to level concealment, still indicated breakthrough of the hundred-level bottleneck.
"Not! Your strength isn't enough to make the Daoist Lord act, because I am already sufficient." Little Cultivator answered calmly.
"Island Lord?"
Then he looked toward Han Xiaodao: "Is it confirmed he's not the strongest, losing means missed opportunity."
"No issue." Han Xiaodao waved, seemed unconcerned.
"Then let's start." The Third Elder expressed some displeasure, he as a Holy Sanctuary Guild Third Elder, felt belittled.
Actually, Han Xiaodao wasn't interested, some World Alliance?
"Doesn't Little Knife Alliance sound better?"
Whether to join mattered not, battling was more interesting, waiting all this time.
Shutting down, always shutting down, truly agonizing.
