Zoey was indifferent to the pandemonium around her as she and Darryl walked to the seats allocated for the Jade Sect.
“The competition is about to start! What shall we do?” she asked Darryl softly when they were seated.
Darryl looked around and whispered, "Zhang Jue is unpredictable. The Supreme Conference is just a veil for his true agenda. We should just give up on participating in the competition when the game begins. There is no need to waste our internal energy."
Zoey nodded in agreement.
Why would they waste their effort in the games when they knew very well that there was a hidden agenda?
Soon, all the invited cultivation sects and forces had arrived. A graceful figure slowly walked out to the center of the square, looking beautiful and exuding a good aura.
It was Gonggong. She was the host of the Supreme Conference.
Gonggong looked around the audience with a faint smile. "Everyone, the Supreme Conference is being held for the first time in thousands of years. This is definitely an unprecedented event in the history of The Nine Continents. Let me talk about the rules. Only one person is allowed to participate from each of the forces and the winner will receive The Nine Continents Medal."
The audience broke out in an uproar.
‘That's not right. Didn't it say that the first place winner will get the honor of being the Nine Continents Supreme? How did the prize become a medal?’ they wondered.
Gonggong seemed oblivious to the protests and doubts of the crowd and began to announce the rules of the competition.
A few minutes later, she finished speaking and looked around. "Alright, now the competition begins."
Then, she turned and left the square.
