Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Outside of the city, Wu Ning stopped and a voice came from behind. “This is a robbery. Hand over the interspatial ring you’ve just bought!”

Another voice added, “Hand over all your treasure points and I’ll spare your pathetic life. Or else…”

Wu Ning turned around and looked at them with a funny expression. “Or else?”

One of them said fiercely, “Or else, I’ll make sure you die with your body all over the place.”

Wu Ning tilted his head and asked, “How did you know I bought an interspatial ring?”

That person replied, “You said you wanted to buy an interspatial ring at the pavilion just now. That steward invited you in and then respectfully sent you out. Apart from that interspatial ring, what else could it be? Hurry up and hand over that interspatial ring.”

Wu Ning placed the interspatial ring on his palm and said with a smile, “What makes you think you can snatch the interspatial ring from me?”

When the two bandits saw the interspatial ring, their eyes went wide. One of them wiped his saliva and said, “You’re wearing such ordinary clothes, and you don’t look like you come from a powerful family.”

Wu Ning smiled and put away the interspatial ring. When the two men saw that the interspatial ring had been put away, they knew that Wu Ning wouldn’t obediently hand it over to them. The two men looked at each other and their palms were filled with spirit energy.

They attacked Wu Ning. Wu Ning just stood there, calmly watching their performance. When the two men’s attacks came in front of them, he gently raised his palm and sent them flying.

The two men on the ground looked at each other and saw the fear in each other’s eyes. Then, they quickly got up and turned around to run.

Wu Ning just stood there and watched them run. When they were about to run out of his sight, he suddenly attacked and used his spirit energy to carve the patterns of the Laws of Water in the surroundings.

The two who had escaped were immediately pulled back into the domain. One of them said in horror, “Domain, you actually cultivated a domain.”

The other person was also full of horror. Wu Ning smiled at them and said, “When you rob others, how can you just run away when you fail and escape unscathed?”

“Then what do you want?”

“Very simple, hand over all your treasure points.”

“You wish!”

Wu Ning did not say anything else. The comprehension surrounding the two of them began to shrink.

The two of them saw that the domain was getting smaller and smaller. Soon, it was going to crush them. Finally, they could not stand it anymore and shouted, “We will give you all the treasure points. Quickly make him stop.”

Wu Ning did not do anything, but the domain had stopped shrinking.

Looking at the domain that had stopped shrinking, the two of them panted heavily. Today, they failed miserably. In the end, the two of them obediently gave all the treasure points to Wu Ning.

The two of them had a total of 170,000 treasure points. Wu Ning curled his lips. So they were poor. However, it was better than nothing. With a wave of his hand, he withdrew his domain.

The two of them immediately split up and fled. Wu Ning shook his head and smiled. He was quite smart, but he didn’t have any intention of chasing after them.

“What an interesting little fellow. How interesting.”An old voice sounded. Before the voice could fade away, an old man in a blue robe with white hair and beard slowly appeared in front of Wu Ning.

The sudden appearance of the old man in a blue robe was even more inexplicable. Wu Ning actually did not notice how the old man appeared. Although Wu Ning was panicking, he still stood there calmly and looked at the old man.

When he saw this, Wu Ning’s heart trembled violently. Although the blue-robed old man’s face was old, his expression was unusual. His aura was restrained, causing Wu Ning to not be able to sense any spiritual energy fluctuations. However, he felt unprecedented pressure.

“Who are you?”Wu Ning asked in a deep voice. His expression was extremely grave.

“Someone you’ve been waiting for,” the blue-robed old man said faintly.

Wu Ning’s eyes immediately widened. The person he had been waiting for, could it be…

The blue-robed old man seemed to have read Wu Ning’s mind as he nodded. “That’s right. This isn’t a place to talk. Let’s go to the hotel where you’re staying and talk.”

As he spoke, he walked forward. Wu Ning had no choice but to follow him all the way to the hotel. The two of them remained silent. The blue-robed old man did not speak, and Wu Ning did not speak either.

“If you don’t join those sects, aren’t you waiting for the Holy Land’s tournament? Actually, it doesn’t matter even if you join those sects. The Holy Land doesn’t value sects, but rather, they value talent,” the blue-robed old man said straightforwardly.

Wu Ning shook his head. “I don’t want to join those sects because those sects won’t be of much help to me. Joining them will only waste my time.”

The old man smiled and said, “What an arrogant little guy, but I like that.”

The blue-robed old man continued, “In six years, the human race’s Holy Land Tournament will be open. You can give it a try. Entering the Holy Land will be of great benefit to you.”

Wu Ning couldn’t help but ask, “Senior, what are the requirements for participating in this Holy Land Tournament?”

“You know about the Holy Land Tournament, but you don’t know the requirements?”The blue-robed old man asked.

Wu Ning shook his head. “I’ve only heard about the Holy Land Tournament, but I don’t know much about it.”

“There are only two requirements. One is that you must not be older than 100 years old, and the other is that you must be a human,” said the blue-robed old man.

100 years seemed old, but it was considered little for practitioners.

In front of cultivators in the Training Ruins, Soul Formation, and even the Daoist Magic Realm, a hundred years was nothing at all. In front of these cultivators, a hundred years was like a babbling baby.

One had to know that in this world, under normal circumstances, Foundation Realm cultivators had a lifespan of five hundred years, Soul Formation realm cultivators had a lifespan of three thousand years, and Daoist Magic Realm cultivators could live up to ten thousand years as long as they were not killed.

After the Saint Realm, there was the power of the holy body. As long as the power of the holy body was not completely destroyed, it would not die.

However, what shocked Wu Ning was that this Holy Land Tournament did not have any restrictions on the cultivation level of the practitioners. “Senior, is there no restriction on cultivation level in this Holy Land Tournament?”

“True geniuses are not affected by cultivation level,” the blue bubble elder continued, “And among the previous Holy Land geniuses, the cultivation level of the cultivators who participated in the tournament was uneven. Among them, there were many examples of Ruins Realm fighting Deity Transformation Realm and Deity Transformation Realm fighting Daoist Magic Realm. Cultivation level is not the standard to measure the true strength of a practitioner.”

Wu Ning frowned. Cross-ranking tournaments were not easy, to begin with, and there were many geniuses in the Holy Land’s tournament. It seemed that this Holy Land’s tournament was not easy to participate in.

The blue-robed elder smiled. “Why, are you afraid?”

Wu Ning shook his head. If he was afraid, how could he enter the Holy Land to cultivate?

The human race’s territory was unknown. On this vast land, there were countless humans living. Among the many humans, there were naturally all sorts of geniuses.

Wu Ning was already filled with curiosity and interest towards the Holy Land’s tournament six years later.

At this moment, the blue-robed old man flipped his palm, and a purple jade token appeared in his hand.

The purple jade token was only half the size of a palm, and there were a few patterns drawn on it. Wu Ning could not tell what those patterns were, but the words ‘Heavenly Ruins’ carved on them were very clear.

The blue-robed old man introduced the purple jade token. “Although the Holy Land’s tournament will only begin six years later, registration has already begun. This jade token is the identity token after the registration. When the Holy Land’s tournament begins six years later, you can use this jade token to go to any place where the Holy Land’s tournament is held to participate in it.”

Wu Ning took the jade token and said in puzzlement, “Senior, doesn’t the Holy Land Tournament require a name and identity proof? Can I really use this jade token?”

“Of course you can. Otherwise, why would I give you this jade token?”

“Senior just said that you can take this jade token to any place where the Holy Land Tournament is held.. Could it be that this tournament is not held in the three great Holy Lands?”
