432: Advanced! [Xuantan Zhenjun Zhao Gongming]! (asking for monthly votes)

Chapter 411: Advancement! Xuantan Zhenjun Zhao Gongming! (Requesting Monthly Tickets)

After wandering around the market for a while, Jiang Yuan still couldn't find any other suitable material cards for advancement.

There was only one advancement material card for Zhao Gongming.

However, even so, it was already enough.

With this one card, Zhao Gongming’s seven material cards were now complete.

It just wasn't the right time, otherwise he could have advanced immediately.

The one hour mark had arrived, and they needed to enter the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield first.

After entering, he would see what arrangements were made.

After returning to the agreed-upon gathering point with Li Yueying, almost everyone had already arrived; they were just the last ones to return.

But then again, only a few of them were Card Creators.

Among the people dispatched by the Four Top Academies this time, besides Jiang Yuan and Li Yueying, there were no other Card Creators.

After all, those participating in the Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament this time were all aiming for the rewards of challenging higher ranks.

Or rather, they were aiming for first place.

In such a situation, it was certainly necessary to send Students with stronger combat power.

As everyone knows, at the same rank, a Card Creator’s combat power is not the strongest.

It can only be considered upper-middle at best.

This led to Jiang Yuan and Li Yueying being the only Card Creators participating this time.

And Li Yueying was even going as a teacher.

After gathering, Li Yueying led everyone into the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield.

The entrance to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield was located in the Human Clan Gathering Place.

Although the Human Clan Gathering Place was not very far from where the Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament was being held, because they arrived relatively late, they had to depart immediately upon arrival.

Jiang Yuan was also very helpless; he could only temporarily give up the idea of advancing Zhao Gongming and follow the main group towards the venue of the Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament.

The venue for this martial arts tournament was a place called Giant Stone Plains.

The entire plain was located on a giant stone, hence it was called Giant Stone Plains.

Li Yueying led the team, heading towards Giant Stone Plains.

And on the only path from the Human Clan Gathering Place to Giant Stone Plains, there was more than one team of races ambushing them.

“Once we reach the competition venue, it’s certainly impossible for the competition to start immediately. I can advance when I find a suitable opportunity.”

Jiang Yuan sighed helplessly; after all, time was too tight.

Otherwise, if he had successfully advanced all his Summoning Cards before participating in this competition, his chances would have been much greater.

Not only could he challenge higher ranks, but he could even try to challenge even more ranks.

For example…

Unfortunately, it was useless to talk about that now.

Currently, he was still missing several advancement material cards for Shi Ji and Old Lord, not to mention those equipment cards.

“If it doesn’t work out then, should I try exchanging cards with people from other races?”

Mu Qianshan spoke, “After all, people from all races are here this time. I imagine they must have brought quite a few cards, right?”

“Furthermore, you can not only trade with Students but also with the team leaders.”

As Mu Qianshan spoke, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but nod.

Indeed, this was possible, especially since the venue was a no-combat zone.

Under such circumstances, peaceful trade became possible.

However, this time it would definitely be a genuine trade; he couldn't replicate the Element Spirit Race’s fraud model again like last time.

Because to this day, the Element Spirit Race still doesn't know who did it.

They even offered an unprecedented reward of a red quality heavenly material and earthly treasure, just to find out who did such a thing!

Of course, Jiang Yuan didn't care about this in the slightest.

It was just a reward for a red quality heavenly material and earthly treasure.

Moreover, what was the Element Spirit Race afraid of?

But the current problem was that not only the Element Spirit Race was here, but also people from other First Sequence Races and Second-Sequence Races.

Provoking all of them would put immense pressure even on the Human Clan.

As for not provoking all of them?

How could that be possible!

This method was like a snowball; when the snowball started rolling, even if you didn't want it, people would rush to send it over.

At that point, would you accept it or not?

If you didn't accept, you would be exposed immediately. If you accepted, you would be exposed later, but how would you know who you offended?

Many people in that previous world were ruined because of such situations.

It was because the snowball kept getting bigger, growing to the point where they couldn't control it, and then they offended many people, many people they couldn't even imagine.

So even if the Element Spirit Race hadn't issued that reward, Jiang Yuan didn't plan to do that.

As an honest and upright young gentleman, I naturally have to trade fairly.

After figuring this out, Jiang Yuan’s mood brightened.

But the next second, a giant meteor suddenly appeared in the sky, plummeting towards them.

Jiang Yuan looked up, his eyes filled with terror.

This was definitely not an attack that an Eighth Realm or even a Ninth Realm could unleash!

“Who wants to die?!”

Li Yueying’s eyebrow twitched; a red quality card in her hand glowed, and the next second, a Demon Race member with two horns on his head appeared in the sky.

A golden cross-shaped crescent sword qi sliced through, and the meteor instantly split into four, falling to the ground as the windbreaker fluttered.

And as the meteor fell, more people rushed out.

Skill Card Masters continuously released skills from the rear, while combat Card Masters charged directly at them.

However, the teachers from the various academies were not to be trifled with; they quickly found their respective opponents, forming a three-on-one situation.

That’s right, three teachers against one enemy.

Now they were not only from the Four Top Academies, but also from some other academies and their teachers.

After entering the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield and converging in the Human Clan Gathering Place, they all walked together towards Giant Stone Plains.

“Too many people, retreat!”

Soon after the battle began, a burly Demon Race man shouted loudly.

The next second, a dozen Demon Race members instantly retreated.

On the Human Clan side, although they successfully killed two Demon Race members, they still couldn't catch up to them.

Or rather, they couldn't pursue them.

Not only should they not pursue cornered foes, but who knew if this was a tactic to lure them away?

After all, this was the vast Ten Thousand Races Battlefield.

If they were dragged into a pursuit, the Students would be in danger.

No matter how talented or brilliant they were, they couldn't challenge two or even three major ranks higher!

After letting the opponents leave, Li Yueying and the others continued to advance.

Jiang Yuan was a little surprised; there were still people trying to intercept them at this time?

One had to know that the competition was starting tomorrow.

However, it seemed the Human Clan had fallen into a misconception?

The competition was starting tomorrow; didn't that mean that almost all races had already arrived at the competition venue?

If internal fighting was prohibited at the competition venue, and the lives of the participating Students were guaranteed, then wouldn't the team leaders be free to intercept Students from other races?

So, you'd think these two people wouldn't fail to consider that, right?

But why?

Before Jiang Yuan could figure it out, the second wave of interceptors arrived.

However, they were still repelled by Li Yueying and the others.

Thus, after experiencing three waves of interceptions, except for one unlucky person who was injured, everyone else was mostly fine.

Upon arriving at Giant Stone Plains, Li Yueying and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Many races were already gathered on Giant Stone Plains.

Each race had its own gathering place.

Although the Human Clan arrived late, they also had their own gathering place.

This was a place that the Human Clan from the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield had occupied in advance; they just needed to enter here upon arrival.

Along the way, Jiang Yuan also saw people from many races.

Such as the Demon Race, Element Spirit Race, Demon Race, Angel Clan, and so on.

However, Jiang Yuan didn't see any familiar faces.

For example, Wenren Fangyan of the Demon Race, Gloria of the Angel Clan, and others.

But then again, his cultivation speed after acquiring the Great Firmament Celestial Art was indeed very fast.

Coupled with Old Lord’s various medicinal pills for assistance, his cultivation speed was even faster.

However, what made Jiang Yuan a bit frustrated was that he was still missing four advancement material cards for the Great Firmament Celestial Art.

He wondered if he could successfully gather the advancement material cards for several cards during this Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament?

It was truly a case of frantically creating cards in the early stage, and then in the later stage, looking at his empty wallet, yet still having many cards that couldn't be successfully advanced, and shedding tears.

No wonder top experts generally only had two equipment cards, one for armor and one for a weapon.

And then a few commonly used Skill Cards.

Besides that, there were no other cards.

These cards alone were already enough.

Aside from those Skill Card Masters, many other powerful individuals Jiang Yuan had met were like this.

For example, Liu Shengshan.

In that battle, Liu Shengshan indeed didn't have too many flashy Skill Cards.

Even the few rare Skill Cards he did have were provided by Jiang Yuan.

Li Yueying was also the same.

Leaving aside her previous fighting style, her current fighting style basically only involved one card.

The Demon Race Summoning Card.

Every time Jiang Yuan saw his teacher use a Summoning Card in battle, he couldn't help but feel envious.

Look at them, why do they come with their own weapons?

When you, Nezha, first came out, you even asked me where your Fire Tipped Spear was?

Truly...

However, what made Jiang Yuan relatively relieved was that Nezha's potential was much higher than that of the Demon Race's Summoning Card.

Of course, the cost of advancement was also much, much higher.

Helplessly shaking his head, he quickly arrived at the Human Clan’s territory.

Jiang Yuan didn't know anyone in the other races, and people from other races didn't know Jiang Yuan either.

Some Seventh Realm individuals had already been to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield or some racial grotto-heavens.

Naturally, some had formed enmities.

But this had nothing to do with Jiang Yuan. After all, after Jiang Yuan broke through to the Sixth Realm, he basically never left the Human Clan’s world.

As for the enmities formed before the Sixth Realm, Jiang Yuan’s strength had increased so rapidly that they simply couldn't keep up with his pace.

In other words, they were no longer qualified to compete with Jiang Yuan on the same stage.

Just like Wenren Fangyan, Wusun Zhongliang, Gloria, and the others he encountered twice consecutively in different Ten Thousand Races Battlefields.

Although these individuals were considered geniuses within their respective races, they clearly weren't qualified to be here now.

Why he remembered them so clearly was because they were the ones who had escaped from Jiang Yuan's hands twice in a row.

Of course, there was also Ancient Capital Si Dan; that guy was as slippery as an eel.

However, Ancient Capital Si Dan was somewhat insufficient compared to them.

After all, although Ancient Capital Si Dan was from the Undead Royal Family, he was still a Second-Sequence Race.

Moreover, this Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament was clearly not very friendly to Amplification Card Masters like Ancient Capital Si Dan.

He imagined that people from their Undead Royal Family wouldn't come to participate either.

Seriously, wouldn't it be great to just become my Shi Ji's Undead Enslavement?

That way, wouldn't you also be qualified to participate in this Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament?

How is this not putting Wusun Zhongliang and those other geniuses down?

“The battle starts tomorrow. Go back and get some good rest today. We’ll gather here at 8 AM. Any questions?”

“No.”

After everyone agreed, they entered their rooms.

red quality card: Temporary Building Construction.

And purple quality card: Temporary Hotel Construction.

Blue quality card: Temporary House Construction.

White quality card: Temporary Room.

It was said that there were also golden quality cards, but Jiang Yuan had never seen them, and even doubted if they truly existed.

Advancing a red quality card had already exhausted him; he really couldn't imagine who would advance such a golden quality card?

Aren't they all just beds?

If not, he could just bring one himself.

For example, the blue quality card Nebula Bed carried by Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan.

Nebula implied good fortune, and furthermore, this bed was made from the hide of a Demon Race cloud-bird beast. Sleeping on it was almost no different from sleeping on a cloud.

So even though it was just a blue quality card, it was carried by Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan at all times.

This one, it seemed, was given to him by Mu Qianshan originally.

Not just this, many of the lifestyle cards in Jiang Yuan’s possession were given by Mu Qianshan.

Mu Qianshan’s original words were, “If I have a share, you have a share.”

“Are you going to advance cards next?”

After entering the room, it wasn't long before Mu Qianshan arrived and asked Jiang Yuan.

“Yes, the competition starts tomorrow, and Zhao Gongming’s advancement material cards are also collected. I’ll advance one card first to improve my combat ability.”

“Alright, then you go ahead and advance your card, I’ll go out and gather some information.”

Mu Qianshan smiled and took out a purple quality card: “I find the use of this card of yours to be quite versatile.”

“Not only can it serve as a life-saving Skill Card, but it can also be used to gather information in situations like this.”

Mu Qianshan said with a smile, taking the Seventy-Two Transformations - False Form and heading out.

Jiang Yuan also understood his plan; he probably intended to use this card to transform into someone from another race, then infiltrate that race to gather information.

Jiang Yuan wasn't worried about Mu Qianshan’s safety; at most, he’d be discovered and scolded.

This place was a no-combat zone, so Mu Qianshan wasn't in any danger.

Jiang Yuan took a shower, meditated for ten minutes, calmed his mind, and then took out the cards.

The purple quality card Zhao Gongming as the main card.

The remaining seven red quality cards as material cards.

Advancement, begin!
