Creating the Shura Palace in a Fantasy World

Location of the Genius Competition

Three days have passed since Song Yang killed Yan Suye, and finally, the day of the Eastern Region Genius Competition has arrived.

The competition site is located in the center of the Eastern Region, surrounded by countless massive mountains and structures that are even larger than the capitals of the major dynasties.

In the center of these structures, there is a huge entrance leading to the secret realm where the genius competition is held.

The identity of the person who created this secret realm remains a mystery. It is believed to be the work of the two sacred lands, as they are the ones who organize the genius competition.

There are ten platforms in front of the entrance to the secret realm, naturally reserved for the two sacred lands, the five dynasties, and the three super sects.

At this moment, the entire structure is completely packed, and even the surrounding mountains are filled with countless cultivators who have come with their sects, families, and even with royal families from certain realms!

It can be said that this is the place with the largest number of powerful cultivators gathered since the last genius competition, 100 years ago.

The Royal Realm is everywhere, and even the Saint Realm is a common sight here!

Most are located on the platforms because there is a secret rule: the higher your status and strength, the closer you can get to the entrance of the secret realm.

Meanwhile, young cultivators who are not part of any force cannot even enter the main structure before the entrance to the secret realm is opened!

"Why are there only ten platforms instead of eleven? Did the main forces not recognize the Shura Palace as one of the main forces?"

"In my opinion, the Shura Palace is not worthy of being among the other main forces. Only some clueless people gave the Shura Palace the title of a main force, but the two sacred lands did not recognize it."

"I don't think so. To me, the Shura Palace should not participate in a genius competition because it should not have young disciples, being an assassin organization."

Several cultivators outside the central structure, who could only observe from afar, began to discuss.

At a certain place, an elder who was accompanying the young family members for the competition began to preach:

"The family does not need, and does not expect, you to obtain a token and be among the top one hundred."

"Remember, the most important thing in the genius competition is the incredible treasures that can be obtained within the secret realm. These treasures may be enough for you to become powerful in the Royal Realm in the future, or even in the Saint Realm."

"Do not be too ambitious. Although the rewards for the top one hundred are good, you do not have enough cultivation to compete. Otherwise, there will only be one result: death."

Upon hearing this, the young people accompanying the elder nodded repeatedly, and surprisingly, did not show any sign of anger at hearing that the elder thought they were not good enough to be among the top 100!

After all, they know that unless their cultivation reaches the peak of the Soul Formation stage, trying to hold onto a prodigy token would be like courting death.

From a young age, they knew they would participate in the genius competition, which happens every 100 years and can change the family's fate, either by obtaining a valuable treasure or by being valued by an elder from one of the major forces of the Eastern Region.

Naturally, they have heard the rules of the genius competition since childhood.

The first phase in the secret realm involves finding and holding onto one of the 100 tokens known as prodigy tokens.

Those who manage to keep a token until the end of the two months will advance to the next phase, which involves duels among the young to determine the positions of the top one hundred.

After the ranking phase, participants in the second phase receive magnificent rewards from the secret realm that even a Saint Realm might envy.

For this reason, the elder repeatedly warned not to be too ambitious, as the competition to obtain a token is brutal and fatal!

Suddenly, a terrifying aura emerged, causing both the young cultivators and the elder accompanying them to look in its direction with admiration.

The aura, incomparable and in the form of a crown mixed with the law of destruction, moved rapidly towards one of the ten platforms.

The admiration was due to the fact that the aura exuded by this person was none other than that of a powerful Saint King!

Finally, the person carrying this aura stopped on one of the platforms, the platform of the Qiankun Super Sect. He was the sect leader, Lan Fu.

"Sect Master."

"I see the Master of the Qiankun Super Sect."

At this moment, seeing Lan Fu finally appear, everyone bowed in respect.

No matter if they were part of the Qiankun Super Sect or even disciples of other major forces, everyone bowed to show their respect.

This is the dignity of a Saint King, a person who has reached the pinnacle of the Eastern Region!

Seeing everyone bow, Lan Fu gave a slight nod in acknowledgment and moved towards his daughter, Lan Yulin, who was already on the platform leading the disciples of the Qiankun Super Sect in the genius competition.

But soon after, two more terrifying auras, also in the form of crowns, appeared, and mocking voices addressed Lan Fu.

"Look, if it isn't the Sect Master who can't even protect his disciples, haha."

"That's right, Old Lan! How dare you show up at the genius competition after fleeing with your tail between your legs when the Shura Palace hunted one of your sect's disciples?"

As soon as these auras appeared, people immediately bowed again.

"Sect Master!"

"I see the Master of the Xuanming Super Sect!"

"Sect Master!"

"I see the Master of the Tianlong Super Sect!"
