Chapter 4663
- On the last day of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties, the finalists would fight among themselves for the top ten positions. However, the finalists had not been confirmed since there were many young powerhouses who had yet to fight.
- King Qin’s Mansion had set a rule where all counties were given a choice and could select one participant to fight for the top three places. In other words, this meant the selected participant was given a free pass and would automatically qualify for the finals. This was so the strongest powerhouses from every county would be in the best condition to fight in the finals. However, if the selected participant could not qualify in the top ten, the county the participant was from would have to pay three times more prominent Celestial Stones for ten consecutive years when they paid their tithe to King Qin’s Mansion. For this reason, unless they were absolutely certain, the counties would not simply select any participant to participate in the final round.
- For this reason, three out of 16 counties did not select any participants for the final round. The other 13 counties, including Nine Specters County, had already decided on their participants. Naturally, Duan Ling Tian had been selected to represent Nine Specter County. However, if he did not show up, he would be considered absent and would be disqualified. As a consequence, Nine Specters County would be punished accordingly. For this reason, the people from Nine Specters County grew more and more anxious as the final battle drew near.
