Of the four counselors, the one in black took one step forward.

"I remember that not too long ago, after the last selection when it ended with the discovered of an agent of the Divines. The wish to reach the highest realms in cultivation together with the fear of failing at the hands of these spies, it scared some of you, it encouraged some of you and it caused many to bitterly cultivate for a chance at the next selection..."

"This time, as I have said, everyone's level here seems to be much higher than in the past selections. So the citadel's council decided to make some changes this time and everyone must have noticed we have four seeded partic.i.p.ants instead of three. In the stadium's arena there is ten colorless spheres, those itens will be used to detect any followers of the divine or devil path who tries to partic.i.p.ate in the main tournament, but the spheres can only be used five times and because of their price, we choose to decrease of number of people in this selection to fifty."

These words spoken by the counselor in black caused a tremendous commotion throughout the stadium as it made lot of people to be uncomfortable. Every time there would be at least a hundred of people in the preliminary selection and fifty who would advance to the main tornado only to the first ten be selected to the region and only the first place would receive a prize, but now they had cut this number by half! This made some of the weaker there to close their fists in fury as they knew it was impossible for weaklings as them have a chance. As for some of the strogest ones, their eyes s.h.i.+nned with confidence as their faces revealed light smiles.

Could it be they were that cruel to cut the number of people by half? Everyone wondered about this as some even had hope that they head wrong, but the next words that leaves the counselor's mouth would be like a bucket of cold water on their heads, extinguis.h.i.+ng their hope.

"Anyone who has not yet reached the peak of the fifth realm in the mortal or spirit path does not qualify for this year's preliminary selection." This words were like swords that slashed over their heads killing the last bit of hope they had. At the same time half of the challenges were walking away from the stadium's arena. Several floating platforms rose around the stadium with the spectators together from another platform where Elijah and the other three seeded contesters. Observing the surrounds, he noticed Ca.s.sie standing at the corner of one platform in the middle of the spectators.

Despite saying he was confident about this tournament even when he knew his opponents would be all in the fifth realm or above, he hasn't been sealed at that time. lowering his eyes to the four top-grade magical crystals on his arm, he wondered if it was able to conjure magic for him to fight. Then he gazed at the icon of the two red prime crystals he took from Orion palace spirit and saved it in his smartphone. Putting your hand in your pocket, feeling the stone tallisman and a small crystalline fragment, thinking this two things could be his best bet.

Without people even realize, the councilor in black was standing in the middle of the arena, examining the ones who haven't left with his eyes.

"Good, at least we have forty-seven who are at the peak of the fifth realm. Before any of use the beads, I have to say how it works. These colorless spheres work in a mysterious way giving off different colored lights for each path the cultivators practice in. Red is Mortal, White is Spirit, Gold is Divine and Purplish Black is Devil. There are also a few others, but that doesn't matter at the moment. Now proceed to the spheres, ten at a time."

Ten people walked towards one of the ten spheres and pressed their hands on it. And numerous light emerged at the same time.

[Red] [Red] [White] [Red] [Red] [White]...

Of the first ten, seven were mortal pract.i.tioners and three were spiritual pract.i.tioners. After they left, another ten walked in.

By the time this selection was close to the end, a Dazzling reddish-white light emerged from the middle of the stadium, overshadowing everyone around. The four counselor widened their eyes in shock while they hide the multiple feeling that formed in their heart, amazement, astoundment and an hint of dread.

Elijah was a little curious about what this light meant as the councilor in black spoke without believing what he saw before his eyes.

"So it's real... the Mortal Spirit Master really exist."
