Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen 70 Chapter 68: Kill Yourself

Everyone was looking at Xu Ming with a stunned look.

Xu Ming decided to ignore them.

He stepped forward and stood in a corner as he waited like everyone else.

Soon, there were around 500 people in the Martial Arena.

Two Elders came flying inside the martial arena on their flying beasts and landed at the center.

Xu Ming recognized one of them. It was Elder Wu. The blind man that was in charge of registration. He didn't know the second person, though.

The second person was an old man. The man had white hair and a long white beard. There was a scar on the man's face. He probably received it during a fight.

"Alright. Looks like everyone's here. I'm Elder Gin and he's Elder Wu. This entire selection is under our jurisdiction. Let me explain the rules about the partic.i.p.ation exam. " The Old man said.

"The Exams for this year are much simpler. In fact, It's going to be faster and easier... as long as you have the strength. If you don't have the strength, then this year's exams are going to be a deadly journey for you." Elder Gin said.

Everyone in the place started talking amongst themselves as they heard it. Most of them didn't even believe it. Although the exams have been difficult in the past, there was never a danger of life in the selection exams.

"Don't take our words lightly. If you're not careful, you will die. And we won't step in to save you. Our sect follows the rule of strength. Trash is not worth saving for us. So if you're trash, you'll die." The man said with a grin on his face.

Elder Wu took a step forward as he started speaking.

"Strength is the law of nature. Without strength, you're nothing. So our test this year will focus on strength. Specifically, your strength compared to your cultivation realm." Elder Wu said.

"Most of you must have already heard it, but I'll repeat it for the ones who haven't. Three days ago, Our Mighty Demon Sect destroyed a righteous Sect." He continued.

"During the attack, we managed to kill all their Elders and Sect Master. We also took quite a few hostages for your exams specifically."

" During the exams, you will have to face a cultivator from that sect. You will be matched with a cultivator who has a higher cultivation than you. As long as you kill your opponent, you pa.s.s. If you surrender, you will not only fail, but die." Elder Wu said as he gazed at the crowd. If one didn't know better, they would never be and to guess that Elder Wu was going.

" Why? Simply because we promised those cultivators that as long as they managed to kill you, they'll be free. There's no surrender." Elder Gin let out with a smile.

"It's either win or die. Those who are uncertain, they can leave right now. If you stay here, you won't be allowed to leave without winning."He continued.

Everyone looked at each other as they waited for someone to leave, but ultimately, no one left.

Xu Ming stayed there as well. He was determined to get promoted. If he couldn't even defeat one opponent, how will he kill the War G.o.d?

The only thing he was uncertain about was that he would have to kill an innocent person. He finally understood that the sect wasn't called Mighty Demon Sect for nothing. They did justice to their name. 

"Alright. There are 500 rooms in this arena. We knew your cultivation, so we already arranged your opponents. See the room number in your partic.i.p.ation badge and enter the room. As long as you kill your opponent, your badge will change color." Elder Wu informed everyone.

Just as he said, there were 500 rooms. Each room had a number on it.

Xu Ming checked the number on his badge.

"301," He muttered.

"Can I get a weapon?" He asked Elder Wu.

"You didn't even bring your own sword? Go fight with your bare hands then." Elder Gin said in an annoyed tone.

"It's fine. There are practice swords in room no. 0. You can choose one of them. Also, Don't forget, your opponent will have a similar sword." Elder Wu said.

" Thank you Elder." He said as he nodded his head.

He started walking towards the rooms as he tried to find the one that had 0 on it.

He found the room and entered it. 

There were quite a lot of weapons there, but he only picked a sword.

He left the room and walked towards room 301.

After some time he did find it.

As Xu Ming entered the room, the first thing he saw was a girl.

The girl was standing on the opposite corner of the room. I'm fact, this room was less like a room and more like a big hall. It was about the size of a baseball ground. 

The girl stood up as she saw Xu Ming enter the room.

The girl looked to be 14-15 years old, but she had a cultivation of 10 stage Body Refining Realm.

Her cultivation stage was a realm higher than Xu Ming, who was at the 9th stage of the Body Refining Realm.

Surprisingly, the girl had a spear in his hand. The spear was almost twice her size.

"You evil cultivators destroyed our peaceful sect. You're demons who need to be wiped off the face of this planet. I'll never forgive you." The girl said as she glared at him. Xu Ming could see the determination on her face.

"I don't want to kill an innocent, but I get what I want without you dying. Can you kill yourself? " He asked politely.

His words stunned the girl who was ready to attack him. 

"Are you saying that I can't win? Even if I have to die today, I won't let you leave alive." The girl said as she gripped her spear with all her strength.

She ran towards Xu Ming as she thrust her spear at him.
