As the dance ended, the whole audience erupted in applause!

Luo Chen was no exception, his hands turning red from clapping. This was Gu Caiyi, his sect’s young lady!

He felt proud!

Murong Qinglian also applauded and smiled, “Caiyi’s dance skills are getting better and better. Just a solo dance is so stunning. I’m afraid she’ll surpass Lady Xiangxiang and become famous in The Great River District.”

The rest of the audience was also full of praise.

Implementing technique into dance, the beautiful effects it brought about were hard to imagine.

For those cultivators who toil away at their cultivation every day, such an enchanting dance may not be something they would ever witness in their lifetime.

The white fog gradually dissipated.

Unknowingly, a figure had already taken the stage at the Dao Debate Platform.

He wore a golden robe, his stern face and piercing eyes projected majesty.

He bowed to the audience in all directions, “I am Pang Renxiong, thank you all for attending the opening ceremony of The Great River District Dao Debate Platform.”

The audience fell silent, unsure of how to respond.

This was because the man emanated a horrifying aura, sharp as a sword.

This was no way less than a genuine Sword Cultivator, a Yu Ding Sword Cultivator!

For a man of such caliber, these lower order cultivators were hesitant to respond, afraid of offending him.

Pang Renxiong seemed indifferent to their reactions. After speaking briefly, he moved his finger like a sword, sending his Qi power directly onto the towering monument behind him.

The force from the big formation stimulated the monument with the Spirit Qi from the Spirit Vein, fully activating the monument.

The three gilded characters of the Sky Pride List shone brightly.

Blurry names appeared and disappeared, then gradually came into focus.

“Golden Core Rank 1: Ren Pingsheng of Yu Ding Sword Sect”

“Foundation Establishment Rank 1: Lin Qingxuan of Yu Ding Sword Sect”

“Qi Refinement Rank 1: Han Zheng of Luo Yun Sect”

Looking at the three most dazzling names, the ten thousand people in the audience gasped in amazement.

Then came a wave of discussion.

Especially for cultivators in remote areas like The Great River District, this was their first time witnessing the talents from the outer world.

They had no idea how powerful these people could be, being acclaimed as the number one in their respective realms.

Then Pang Renxiong’s voice rang again.

“The Dao Debate Platform is open, the Sky Pride List is launched, those who challenge the Great Dao Path are welcome to take the stage. The name will be listed.”

“Each victor will receive a designated item from the loser as spoils of war, and also the corresponding realm’s appearance fee.”

“The higher the ranking, the more rewards will be given by the Yu Ding Sword Sect during the annual settlement.”

“Rogue cultivators can also participate. If you perform exceptionally, you may join Yu Ding Sword Sect and receive the same treatment as internal disciples.”

Upon his introduction, everyone had a better understanding of the Dao Debate Platform.

Similarly, they learned about the purpose of the Sky Pride List.

If one applied the Spirit Vision Technique, they could see through the Sky Pride List and view the hidden records of those listed.

Many people instinctively browsed through, then exclaimed in surprise.

Luo Chen was also curious to know what kind of person could be named as the top in Qi Refinement.

So, he specifically looked at the record of Han Zheng from the Luo Yun Sect.

Upon seeing it, he took a sharp intake of breath.

“Thirty-two battles of the same order, undefeated.”

“Participated in foundation establishment battles, three wins and five losses.”

“If such a person is not named as the top in Qi Refinement, then who should be?”

As he marveled, Mi Shuhua, who was sitting next to him right at the center, shook his head and sighed lightly.

“We cultivators aim for immortality in our cultivation and struggles. Such an act of asserting dominance through fighting is somewhat leaning towards the Path of Demon.”

Luo Chen blinked, his excitement cooled quite a bit.

Indeed, too much fighting would affect a cultivator’s practice and eventually be detrimental to their longevity.

However, he also began to understand another point.

This was a way for rogue cultivators to ascend.

Once they made a name for themselves, not only could they earn rewards, but they also had a chance to be noticed by the great sects.

If they could join a sect, they may be able to escape the predicament of being a rogue cultivator, having a sect to back them up and having guidance from experts.

Even if the worst-case scenario, joining an immortal cultivation clan and becoming an elder would still be better than cultivating alone.

Of course, the prerequisite was to have exceptional fighting power.

Pang Renxiong did not stay on the stage for long. As a Golden Core Ascendant Master, he declared the opening ceremony to begin.

One by one, prepared performances followed.

The three performances of Foundation Establishment Cultivators battling Second Order Demon Beasts made people’s blood boil.

It was rumored that in the future, Yu Ding Sword Sect would specifically capture some First Order and Second Order demon beasts to serve as opponents for the cultivators.

If you add the inmates continually coming in from the Red Pillar Prison.

The Dao Debate Platform was not short of combat performances at its initial stages of operations.

Once the culture of cultivators being fond of fighting continues, the Dao Debate Platform, a place that is bound to earn spirit stones, will gradually rise.

While watching the show, Luo Chen was also observing the expressions of the Broken Mountain Gang members around him.

Although they were amazed by those exuberant performances, there was still a hint of reservation in their eyes.

Indeed, people are most concerned about their own affairs.

And this matter, was the final highlight of today’s grand opening ceremony.

The Eighteen Death Duels!

A familiar figure, controlling his Flying Sword, ascended the Dao Debate Platform.

Miao Zhen, the External Sect Steward of Yu Ding Sword Sect, now the Master of Yu Ding Sword Pavilion.

An old acquaintance, the past few performances that required him to introduce the participants, were all handled by him.

This time, his presence on the stage also signaled the impending start of the final and bloodiest performance.

“The Broken Mountain Gang from the Great River District and the Great Lake Gang have some minor disputes, and today they will settle their differences on the Dao Debate Platform. Fellow cultivators here will witness.”

“Each gang will put forth nine people, below Foundation Establishment, with no restrictions on methods.”

“Unlike regular debates, this battle will only be settled by life or death!”

“Hehe, if anyone has disagreements in the future, you can contact our Sect’s Dao Debate Platforms in various marketplaces, and great cities. We will surely help you arrange appropriately.”

After briefly making a promotion, Miao Zhen’s face turned solemn.

“Now, the first battle begins.”

“Han Dang of the Broken Mountain Gang will duel with Min Longyu of the

Great Lake Gang.”

As his words fell, he stepped off the Dao Debate Platform.

On the massive stone platform’s two sides, two figures slowly emerged, and a barrier filled with massive Spirit Qi, like an inverted large bowl, sealed off the stone platform directly.

Only the victor could leave the Dao Debate Platform.

On the stands, the gang members from both sides stopped holding back, loudly cheering for their members.

Especially the Broken Mountain Gang members, as they were most familiar with Han Dang, their shouts shook the heavens and earth.

“Hall Master Han, kill him!”

“Kill that man, Heart Eating Tiger Han Dang is invincible!”

The noise from the outside world had no effect on the people inside.

The two looked at each other, without wasting words, they each unleashed their techniques.

The battle, broke out in an instant!

On the stands, Luo Chen was staring intently in the direction of the battle, curious about how these Late Stage Qi Refinement cultivators fought.

He had also specifically researched about the name Han Dang, Heart Eating Tiger.

The Broken Mountain Gang had seven Hall Masters, each had seven Late Stage Qi Refinement cultivators under their command.

Over the years, the cultivators of The Great River District, had also made many assessments on these seven.

Han Dang was the one among the seven whose realm was the highest and methods were the most ruthless.

By having him fight the first battle, it also showed how much trust Mi Shuhua had in him.

However, as soon as the battle began, the situation became unexpected for everyone.

Min Longyu, who emerged from nowhere, was actually an Array Master.

He first raised a Defense Talisman at ease, then threw Array Flags in all directions.

Han Dang attacked the Defense Talisman, causing the barrier to wobble on the verge of collapse, but it didn’t affect his opponent at all.

He turned to destroy those Array Flags, with his methods, dozens of flags were destroyed in the blink of an eye.

Just when he thought the game was set, and he was preparing to turn around and break through that turtle like shell.

An abrupt change happened.

The shattered Array Flags emitted a golden light, hundreds of golden blades crisscrossed, and began relentlessly attacking him.

Han Dang also deployed his own Defense Magic Tool, but amidst those golden blades, he was merely hanging on for dear life.

Everyone knew that it wouldn’t be long before he could no longer hold on.

Mi Shuhua’s amiable smile disappeared, his face as dark as water, staring at the Great Lake Gang.

Conveniently, Wang Haichao also looked over.

“He is from your Great Lake Gang too, isn’t he?”

“Brother Mi, you knew already, why are you so unwilling to accept defeat?”

“Hmph, who wins and who loses, is still unknown!”

His words indeed said so, but Han Dang’s heart-wrenching screams from the Dao Debate Platform made his eyelids twitch uncontrollably.

Shredded into pieces, blood and flesh flying.

This was the outcome of the notorious Heart Eating Tiger.

The several hundred members of the Broken Mountain Gang fell silent.

Contrarily, the crowd was cheering in exhilarated excitement.

The joys and sorrows of people are ultimately different.

Sitting there, Luo Chen felt his scalp tingle.

Han Dang’s realm of Qi Refinement Finalization could not be faked, Ascendant Grade Flying Sword, Ascendant Grade Defense Magic Tool, and abundant Qi Power, he undoubtedly had an incredibly solid foundation.

His battle techniques were flawless.

However, in that strange battle, apart from an initial advantage, he hardly had any power to fight back afterwards.

Is this the power of an Array Master?

As he was feeling amazed, he noticed Murong Qinglian next to him clenching her fingers tightly together..
