Chapter 179: First Hearing of the Seven Regions Competition

At this moment, a space crack suddenly appeared in the sky, and the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart.

Immediately afterwards, two figures walked out from the space crack, emitting a powerful aura that made people feel awe.

"Okay, now that you have finished your business, I will leave." One of the figures said to the other with a smile.

This person was Ren Tiance. His face was filled with smiles and his eyes revealed confidence and determination.

His voice was calm and gentle, yet full of power that made people believe it involuntarily.

"Thank you Brother Ce for your help this time!"

Another figure respectfully thanked Ren Tiance, his eyes full of gratitude.

This man's name is Zhang Chentian. He is tall and straight, with a handsome and majestic face.

At this moment, his tone was full of sincerity and respect, and he obviously admired and appreciated Ren Tiance very much.

"It's too formal to say that anymore!" Ren Tiance waved his hand and said with a smile, "Do we still need to be so polite to each other?"

"Hehe, Brother Ce is right!" Zhang Chentian also laughed, his face filled with joy.

"However, I have to remind you that I will be away from Beili Territory for a while this time. Don't put yourself in danger, otherwise I won't be able to save you in time! I don't want to hear that you're dead when I come back next time!" Ren Tiance warned half-jokingly.

"How is that possible! Brother Ce, you know I never cause trouble." Zhang Chentian quickly shook his head to deny it, with a look of grievance on his face.

"Hahaha, just kidding. I hope you can place in the top ten in the Seven Realms Competition thirty years from now. The reward...tsk tsk tsk, even I'm tempted!"

Speaking of this, a hint of yearning appeared in Ren Tiance's eyes.

"Seven Realms Competition?" Zhang Chentian asked with a puzzled look.

"You don't know yet?" Ren Tiance was slightly stunned.

"I don't know." Zhang Chentian answered honestly.

"I thought King Xia would tell you yesterday. Well, I'll just briefly explain it to you."

Ren Tiance shook his head helplessly, then began to explain seriously, "The so-called Seven Realms Competition, as the name suggests, is a competition among all the geniuses under the age of one hundred in the seven realms. This is an inherent tradition of Central Continent, held every five hundred years."

"And if you take first place in the competition, you will at least receive an eighth-tier spiritual medicine or elixir, as well as high-level martial arts techniques, spiritual weapons, and so on."

Ren Tiance paused for a moment, then continued:

“Of course, the specific situation depends on what kind of treasures the top forces in Zhongzhou are willing to offer as rewards.

"If a peerless genius emerges from one of these factions and has a chance to take first place, they will most likely reward him with something even more precious and high-end."

He smiled and said, “The higher the ranking, the richer the reward.

"Back then, I represented the Northern Li Territory in a competition and ultimately achieved an excellent 16th place, earning me ten seventh-tier elixirs and three earth-tier martial arts that matched my attributes."

He patted Zhang Chentian on the shoulder and encouraged him:

"In short, there are many benefits to participating in this competition. In about twenty-five years, a selection competition will be held in the Northern Li Territory."

"At that time, all the young talents from forces above the sixth rank will gather in the imperial capital of the Great Yan Dynasty to engage in a fierce competition."

With excitement glittering in his eyes, he explained:

"Through this selection competition, we will select the five hundred best talents to represent the Northern Li Territory!"

"Okay, that's about all the important things. When the time comes, you need to pay more attention. I'm looking forward to seeing your outstanding performance!"

After Ren Tiance finished speaking, without giving Zhang Chentian a chance to speak, he directly escaped into the void and disappeared above the sky of the Linyue Dynasty.

"Seven Realms Competition..."

Zhang Chentian stood there, staring at the direction Ren Tiance had left, the words he had just heard echoing in his mind. He frowned slightly, lost in thought.

After a moment, a hint of determination flashed in Zhang Chentian's eyes, and he muttered to himself:

"I must participate in this competition! Not for anything else, but just to get out of this world, see the outside world, and see what a true genius looks like."

"Well, it's definitely not for those rewards!"

His eyes gradually became firm, as if he had made up his mind.

However, at this moment, a sudden voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "Are you deceiving yourself or the devil?"

This sudden sound startled Zhang Chentian. He came to his senses and said to Xiaota with some displeasure:

"Xiaota, could you please not speak suddenly when I'm thinking? You almost scared me to death."

Xiaota's voice was tinged with teasing, "You call that thinking? It's daytime, and you're daydreaming here."

Zhang Chentian sighed helplessly and muttered to himself:

"This little tower is really becoming more and more fond of joking, but what it said does make sense. I really can't just focus on the benefits and ignore the challenges and difficulties."

Thinking of this, Zhang Chentian took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality.

He knew that if he wanted to achieve good results in this Seven Regions Competition, he would have to put in more effort and sweat.

"Huh, how could this be just a daydream."

Zhang Chentian snorted lightly, a determined arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked into the distance with a sharp gaze.

His eyes sparkled with longing and persistence for the future, as if he had already seen the moment when he would stand at the top.

"A person must have dreams. Otherwise, what's the difference between him and a salted fish?"

He straightened up, his voice loud and powerful. This sentence was not only for Xiaota to hear, but also for himself to hear, reminding himself not to forget his original intention and goal.

However, Xiaota did not answer, but only chuckled:

"Hahaha, you'd better think about how to improve your cultivation, otherwise you might even be eliminated in the Beili Territory qualifiers." Xiaota's words were tinged with sarcasm.

But Zhang Chentian was not discouraged by Xiaota's words. Instead, they aroused the fighting spirit deep in his heart.

He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes determined as he said, "Hmph, just wait and see."

He believes that as long as he works hard and constantly breaks through himself, he will be able to realize his dream.

Then Zhang Chentian came to the ground and walked towards the palace with big strides.

In the boudoir, Xia Aoxue, who was embroidering, suddenly felt a familiar breath appear in the royal city. Her face lit up with joy, and her figure disappeared in a flash.

The next moment, she appeared in front of Zhang Chentian, with a happy smile on her face, and said softly:

"Chentian, you're back!"

"Well, I'm back!"

Looking at the beauty in front of him, Zhang Chentian couldn't help but feel sweet and joyful in his heart.

He reached out and gently held Xia Aoxue's hand, and asked softly:

"Is Your Majesty free now?"

Hearing Zhang Chentian asking about his father, Xia Aoxue was stunned at first, then revealed a shy smile and replied in a low voice:

"Yes, my father and mother are in the Yangxin Palace. They are...discussing our marriage."

At the end of her words, Xia Aoxue's face suddenly turned red, like a ripe red apple, making people want to take a bite.

She lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers a little embarrassedly, with anticipation glittering in her eyes.

Zhang Chentian was very happy after hearing this. He smiled and pinched Xia Aoxue's nose, jokingly saying:

"Why are you shy again?"

After saying that, he took Xia Aoxue's hand and went to the Yangxin Palace together.

Along the way, the two talked and laughed, and their love for each other grew stronger.
