Chapter 399: The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords!

Upon learning, Su Yi discovered that the location for the examination was called the Heavenly Stairs. Rumor has it that one may ascend to the top of the Heavenly Stairs, implying a leap to heaven.

The Heavenly Stairs possess a total of seven levels, which include the Mortal Grade, Fine Grade, General Grade, Commander Grade, King Grade, Emperor Grade, and the legendary Heavenly Grade levels.

If one can ascend to the Seventh Grade, it is equivalent to possessing the talents of the Heavenly Grade as mentioned in legend, truly representing a leap towards heaven.

It is said that those who possess the Heavenly Grade aura can cause extraordinary phenomena at birth, and are destined to achieve great success and surpass all beings.

However, Heavenly Grade seems to only exist in legends. It is said that even the disciples who have been in Divine Sword School five years ago were super strong, such as Yun Lingfeng and Liu Yunchuan, have barely reached the Sixth Grade, and have not even stepped into the Seventh Grade, which has shaken the entire Divine Sword School.

As an outer disciple on the Heavenly Stairs, as long as they can step on the fourth level, they can pass and have the opportunity to become inner disciples.

If they fail, it is likely that they will never have the chance to become inner disciples in their lifetime.

Once the outer disciple passes, they can directly enter the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords.

The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords is not just a mere test, but it is also one of the cores of the Grand Swordsmanship Competition, providing opportunities for both inner and outer disciples to excel.

Unlike outer disciples who need to be tested at the Heavenly Stairs, all inner disciples can directly enter the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords.

The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords is an expansive area that has been controlled long ago by the cultivators of Divine Sword School. It houses many demon beasts, and is arranged and selected to hone the skills of the young disciples of the school.

The demon beasts inside, at a level not too high in terms of cultivation, pose a fatal danger to inner disciples and yet possess the ability to fight back, truly a forging and honing experience with the risk of bloodshed.

However, if one manages to pass the final trial, there is hope to become a direct disciple of the Divine Sword School.

It must be said, the competition is brutal.

Nonetheless, such brutality is not questioned by anyone in a world where the strong rule everything and strength is the only language that matters.

In the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, it would take at least close to a month to walk out.

The vast area of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords is beyond human imagination, and there are many dangers and crises to be faced at any time.

According to previous years' records, only a hundred out of ten thousand disciples could successfully leave, which is considered remarkable.

Inside the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, all disciples not only have to deal with imminent danger but also have to search for a type of stone called the Sword-patterned Stone.

The powerful cultivators from Divine Sword School didn't contribute many Sword-patterned Stones to the entire Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, and only 68 disciples who obtained the most Sword-patterned Stones could proceed to the ultimate showdown at the pinnacle of Spirit Sword Peak.

The direct disciples will enter the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords only after half a month.

The strength of direct disciples is far stronger than that of the inner disciples. In order to give inner disciples a chance, the direct disciples will enter the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords half a month later, otherwise, inner disciples may have very little chance to obtain any of the Sword-patterned Stones.

Only by walking out of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords can one reach the climax of the Grand Swordsmanship Competition.

These disciples who can walk out from the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords will have their final peak duel at Spirit Sword Peak.

Only the top sixty-eight disciples with the most Sword-patterned Stones are qualified to have their final duel at Spirit Sword Peak.

The top sixteen who can get the highest ranking will receive supreme benefits and a large amount of rewards from the Divine Sword School.

"Unsurpassed benefits, immense rewards!" Su Yi's eyes sparkled with light at the thought of Divine Sword School's unsurpassed benefits and immense rewards. Naturally, he was tempted, but he didn't know if he would have the chance in the end.

Up in the air, Su Yi and Zhang Qing were still riding on Fierce Wind Golden Eagle to collect the emblems from the school.

The Fierce Wind Golden Eagle seemed to have made up its mind to follow Su Yi.

After Su Yi was taken to Sky Sword Peak by the elder, it returned to the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak to wait.

"Brother Su Yi, did you tame this Fierce Wind Golden Eagle?"

Zhang Qing was puzzled, this was supposed to be the Court of Justice's mount, yet it seemed to have been tamed by Su Yi.

Su Yi smiled slightly and sat cross-legged on the back of the Fierce Wind Golden Eagle, gently patting its feathers.

Su Yi was well aware that it was the aura of his own Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique that made the Fierce Wind Golden Eagle choose to submit. Even after several attempts to leave, it seemed determined to follow him.

Well, if given the opportunity, he could grant the Fierce Wind Golden Eagle a chance of rebirth.

It didn't take long for Su Yi to easily receive his outer disciple emblem with the help of Zhang Qing, under the order of the sect leader.

The material of this emblem seems to be similar to Yuan Stone, with a faint energy fluctuation, but it's not Yuan Stone. It seems to have been imbued with some kind of technique by a powerful person. After pledging with blood, the emblem became effective.

After pledging with blood, Su Yi now seems to have a certain connection with the emblem in his heart, and can clearly feel its condition. There are five basic points inside.

Holding the emblem in his hand, Su Yi also felt quite emotional.

Although he was not a disciple of the Divine Sword School, holding the emblem representing an outer disciple in his hand still moved Su Yi's heart.

In the Divine Sword School, he also had a legitimate identity.

"There will be point records inside the emblem, and you can also use it to receive basic elixirs at designated times," Zhang Qing informed Su Yi.

"Points..."

Su Yi deeply regretted that he had already handed over a batch of space bags to the Right Dharma Protector, and forgot to first take out the emblems inside and transfer the points.

These points were extremely valuable in the Divine Sword School, as they could be exchanged for everything.

As Su Yi and Zhang Qing returned to the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, the day was almost over, with the sun setting in the horizon.

Regarding the Grand Swordsmanship Competition, Su Yi had already understood most of the matter. Xu Jiahui, Zhang Qing, and others had also explained it well, without saying much more.

Moreover, Zhang Qing and Xu Jiahui dare not reveal anything. For someone who could defeat Jian Shiyi, why should he worry about climbing the Heavenly Stairs tomorrow?

At this moment, they should be most concerned about themselves. Whether they have the chance to become an inner disciple depends on their own performance tomorrow.

If they fail, they will never have another chance in this lifetime.

As night fell, the brilliant moon shone in the sky, casting stars into obscurity.

On Sky Sword Peak, Situ Liuyun's eyes were like stars, looking up at the bright moon as if he had something on his mind, lost in thought.

"Sect leader, you said Elder Su never took on disciples before, but at this time, he accepted such a student. If it were an ordinary disciple, it would be fine, but if Su Yi were a direct disciple, then..."

The Right Dharma Protector felt helpless and speechless. He was aware of the situation and probably every elder and strong member of the Divine Sword School wouldn't want Elder Su to accept disciples at the moment.
