Chapter 2398: Tenth-Order Heavenly Ascension Tower

, many immediately began to question the evidence that Du Hongpeng had just presented.Ye Bufan showed no panic, seemingly prepared for this. He looked at Feng Jin and smiled coldly: "Not persuasive en..."To put it simply, the strength of our Tianluo Prefecture is ultimately too weak."

In the last Genius War, we still had eight spots available.

But all eight who went there suffered defeat, none achieving victory. In this situation, if others reduce the number of participants, we have nothing to say.

Zhao Fangshuo said: "That's right, the allocation of quotas this time is also based on the strength between continents."

Tianwu Prefecture is the strongest, having secured a total of forty spots.

Tianmang Prefecture ranked second, securing thirty spots.

There were fifteen seats in Tiansheng Prefecture and ten in Tianqiong Prefecture, but now only five remain for us.

Lei Wanjun wryly smiled and said, "Without strength, there is no dignity. This time, if it weren't for the young master's timely return, our five quotas would probably have been snatched away by Huayunzong."

After hearing what the two said, Ye Bufan was also full of helplessness.

This allocation method is somewhat similar to the distribution of World Cup spots on Earth, where stronger teams get more spots and weaker teams are only given a few as consolation.

In the end, strength decides everything. Without strength, you can only give up control and be at the mercy of others.

Now I understand why the three major sects were so eager for him to represent Tianluo Prefecture in the competition. If he loses miserably again this time, I'm afraid they won't even be able to secure these five spots next year.

Qin Biyao said: "In the cultivation world, strength is paramount. The weaker one's strength, the fewer resources they obtain. The fewer resources, the weaker their strength becomes, forming a vicious cycle."

If this continues, it is unimaginable what extent Tianluo State will eventually decline to.

So this time, I'm placing all my trust in Doctor Ye. Now, only you can lead Tiánluó Prefecture out of this slump and completely break this vicious cycle.

Upon hearing her words, the disciples from the three major sects present all bowed deeply and respectfully, pleading: "Please, Immortal Ye!"

"Rest assured, I will not disappoint you all!"

Ye Bufan raised his hand and helped everyone up. He was very confident about this.

Although I can't say for sure that I'll win first place, I'm confident that I have the ability to achieve a very good result.

He originally also wanted to bring Li Qingzhu and Chu Lingxi together, but now it seems impossible. The quota is simply not enough.

"Thank you, Doctor Xie Ye!"

Even Xiao Wan Yi was visibly excited this time.

As cultivators from Tiánlōu State, they always yearned to rise above and achieve recognition. Unfortunately, their strength was insufficient before. Now with the arrival of Ye Bufan, they have rekindled hope.

Comparable to the peak strength of a Void Realm expert, even among the geniuses of all continents, he would undoubtedly be one of the best, capable of entering the top three and even winning the championship.

Ye Bufan waved his hand and said, "By the way, what is the prize this time"

Before, the newcomer ranking tournament held in Tianluo State had prizes of Hongyuan Fruit. This made him very interested in the prizes for the Genius Demon Contest.

"There's no news on this yet, it's very mysterious, I don't know what it is."

Lei Wanjun said, "However, based on past experience, the top three prizes are extremely generous and are definitely rare treasures that are hard to come by."

Zhao Fangshuo added, "And this period of the Genius Monster War is very special, it happens to coincide with the opening of the Ten-Tier Heavenly Pagoda."

Before this, Tiansheng Prefecture had already released the news that this time, just like before, the quotas for entering the Heavenly Tower would be allocated according to the ranking achieved in the competition.

This is also why Huayunzong came to grab the spots. After all, this kind of opportunity is too precious for a cultivator.

As long as one person from the sect can enter the Heavenly Tower, it will be a great opportunity.

Ye Bufan knew nothing about the Kunlun Continent, let alone the situation in Tiansheng Prefecture.

"What is that tenth-order Heavenly Ascension Tower like What are the benefits of entering it"

Zhao Fangshuo said: "The Tenth Heaven Tower has appeared in Tiansheng Prefecture for many years. Some say it fell from the sky, while others say it is a treasure descended from the fairy world."

In short, this tower opens once every ten years. Inside, there are countless treasures and opportunities beyond imagination. Anyone who enters will surely gain something.

But this pagoda isn't open to just anyone. It only opens once every hundred years, and each time, only one hundred people are allowed in.

In addition, only cultivators under a hundred years old can enter. Those over this age, no matter how high their cultivation level, will be turned away.

Ye Bufan said: "In that case, wouldn't the major sects have to fight desperately for it"

"That's right!"

Lei Wanjun said, “If disciples under twenty-five are the future of the sect, then those under a hundred are its backbone.”

That is also why, a thousand years ago, the cultivators of the Kunlun Continent fought tooth and nail for a place to enter the Tower of Heaven.

Not only do different states compete with each other, but so do various sects.

In the end, seeing that the casualties were too heavy and the losses outweighed the gains, the major sects began to sit down and negotiate.

Finally, everyone reached an agreement. The number of spots each continent could claim would be decided based on the final standings of the Genius Demon Contest. This put an end to the bloody struggle.

Zhaofangsuo sighed: "The bloody struggle has come to an end, but it has also resulted in a situation where the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker."

Although Tianluo State was previously the weakest, the gap between it and other continents was definitely not as large as it is now.

As the number of spots available in the Sky Piercing Tower became increasingly scarce, the opportunities for the mid-level disciples to improve their strength dwindled. Their abilities gradually declined until they reached their current state.

Ye Bufan nodded, his heart filled with curiosity about this tenth-floor Sky Piercing Tower.

He then learned about the situation of the Genius Monster War, and then said: "This time, I will decide the personnel participating in the competition, and it will definitely not disappoint everyone."

"Thank you, Doctor Ye!"

If someone else had said this, the three major sects would certainly have attacked together. After all, these spots involve the interests of all schools and factions.

But now that Ye Bufan said it, others naturally dared not have any objections.

And they were also very clear that without this young man competing, relying solely on their disciples, they would likely be even worse off than before, only allowing Tianluo Prefecture's status to continue slipping further and further.

Ye Bufan said, "This time I'm leading the team. The remaining four are Lu Xueman, Hu YaoYao, Jiang Fangzhou, and Shui Xianzi. Do you have any objections"

"No!"

Everyone agreed, although Muye University had four spots available this time, they were just too strong.

Lei Yunzong and Shen Jian Shan Zhuang had two Supreme Elders standing there, no one else even had the qualification to speak.

As for the Tianshui Pavilion, having Shui Yueli selected was already enough to make them overjoyed and naturally there wouldn't be any objections.

"Very well, then you may withdraw. We shall rest for a day and set out tomorrow!"

Thus, everyone else left, and only the contestants remained in the room.

Ye Bufan glanced at Shui Yueli: "Water Fairy, are you alright"

"It's okay, I'm feeling much better now."

Shui Yueli took Ye Bufan's Huichun Dan, and now her internal injuries have mostly healed.

"It's okay."

Ye Bufan said, "Water Fairy, would you please tell me about the strength of the five states on the Kunlun Continent"p, and then began to rapidly circulate his immortal energy.In his view, the stronger his cultivation, the more secure he would be.And the three Immortal Yuan Pills he had taken before were almost comp...
