Inside the royal palace, Emperor Arthur encouraged the participants as he usually did and then ordered them to go into the Imperial Warfare Field.
"Attention, please. The Imperial Warfare Field is ten miles away from the eastern suburbs of the imperial capital city.
There is a teleportation array inside the palace. You will be directly teleported there. Please brace yourselves," Randy announced.
The next moment, in the blink of an eye, he threw some vital energy force into the air. The space over him was immediately torn open and out of nowhere, inside the palace, appeared a door. About three meters long and five meters wide. Dazzling pieces of space floated like light feathers and gleamed in the surrounding air.
A teleportation array was a magic space array, through which, one could break through space and get to the opposite side which had already been set up.
For cultivators, teleportation arrays were seldom to be seen inside Violet Orchid Empire. They hadn't expected to see one inside the palace.
Everyone was staring curiously at the magic array Randy had conjured up in seconds.
Austin thought in admiration, 'The empire must have a lot of money and enormous talents on its side. In the Sun Sect, there is an Energy-gathering Array. It's a great array but the gap between these two arrays is enormous.
The teleportation array can break through space. It's impossible for a sect to make a teleportation array because it not only costs a hell lot of money but also requires extremely talented array experts.'
Then Emperor Arthur entered the teleportation array first and others on the scene followed him.
The Imperial Warfare Field wasn't used unless there were national events. Usually, it was forbidden for anyone to enter the area.
When the cultivators came in, they found that it was a big and beautiful place.
The surrounding mountains were covered with green luxuriant vegetation, the sky was a clear blue, various flowers were in full bloom everywhere and a fresh scent of trees, grass and flowers was floating around. It was spring in there.
The gentle breeze felt like the touch of one's first love.
All the people who were in the palace and went through the door of the teleportation array were really surprised to see that the Imperial Warfare Field was such a warm and beautiful place.
It was so big that it stretched as far as they could see. Inside, stood exactly one hundred battle rings; no more and no less. Each of the battle rings was several hundred thousand square meters. Even a horse could run happily inside it and get tired.
'Gee, one hundred battle rings. What a spectacular scenery! That is a generous amount of space.
Only the imperial family can afford such an extravagant warfare field and prepare so many battle rings.'
Austin thought to himself. He was surprised at what he saw.
"All the participants, please gather in this plaza! Everyone else, please take your seats and be quiet," a eunuch announced in a sharp voice.
Along the mountains and rivers, hundreds and thousands of chairs had been arranged in advance.
Emperor Arthur, the five Sect Leaders, many officials of high ranks had already been seated according to their status.
Many elders from different sects also took their disciples to the arranged district and sat down quietly. The disciples were supposed to watch the combats and learn from them.
The audiences were sitting in formations inside the Imperial Warfare Field. They had been teleported there.
Rich merchants, famous senior cultivators, all the lords and ladies. Basically, almost everyone of any status was there.
There were tens of thousands of people present to witness the battles.
Some soldiers and eunuchs were on duty to keep order. And although numerous people were present on the scene, no chaos was caused.
As Emperor Arthur seated himself, he looked around at the audience seriously. Everyone stopped talking in respect for the emperor and also, in fear of being punished. All the participants and spectators held their breath and silence reigned throughout the enormous Imperial Warfare Field.
An old eunuch came forward several steps and stopped in the center of the field. Everyone stared at him and listened carefully when he read the scroll in his hands.
The rules of the Outstanding Talents Exchange Games were written on that scroll.
There was going to be single elimination method. All the cultivators would fight in pairs. The losers would be out while the winners would begin a new fight. The process would be repeated until there were fifty cultivators left.
At the beginning of the game, the cultivators who were fighting for the same prince wouldn't meet on the battle rings.
