Chapter 1493: 1493

The lots would be drawn by the machine in the ceremony later .





The so-called seeds were not chosen by the organizer . Those were the most popular contestants . Thus, there was a possibility for some powerhouses to be grouped together during the later drawing process .

It was precisely because of this reason that the lot drawing ceremony became the center of attention .

When the top ten finalists were selected, these powerhouses may not have the opportunity to encounter one another . That was because the choice would be in the Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena’s hands by then .

At this point, the round-robin tournament was of the utmost importance .

All of the contestants were hoping to avoid opponents with powerful abilities because there were only ten slots available . Not being grouped together with a powerhouse meant that they could steer clear of a difficult match which would increase their chances of becoming a finalist .

Tang Wulin closed his eyes in an attempt to regulate his body . His sickly appearance today was not just for show . He was truly not in good physical condition .

There were some issues that arose during the Heavenly Refinement process the day before . When he was attempting it, the elemental calamity suddenly blew up for some unknown reason, resulting in the explosion of the metal that he was forging . The Thunderclap Nether Vine’s endurance was pushed to the limit at the time . In order to protect the Thunderclap Nether Vine, Tang Wulin withstood the elemental calamity to such a high degree that he had taken damage, despite his physical capabilities .

Fortunately, the Thunderclap Nether Vine was saved and it continued absorbing the elemental calamity . According to Tang Wulin’s examination of his physical condition, he would be incapable of Heavenly Refinement for at least three days .

Speaking of which, his recent cultivation schedule was overly packed as well . He had engaged in Heavenly Refinement every day and sometimes more than once a day . As a result his body was being bombarded by the elemental calamity far too frequently . He found that he was already on the edge of failing to withstand the process, even with his physical capabilities as the Nature Child .

Zhen Hua had asked Tang Wulin to slow down and rest, as continuing in such a state would be detrimental . It was just the right time for him to participate in the competition .

“Ah!” Tang Wulin yawned . The feeling of fatigue crept into his body as soon as he thought of taking a rest .





“Hello, fellow talented youths . My name is Qiangu Dongfeng,” came the sonorous voice of the Spirit Pagoda’s Master . It attracted everyone’s attention .

Of course, Qiangu Dongfeng would not show up in front of the screen in person . He was standing on the main platform with his speech being displayed on the gigantic screen .

The Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena stood by his side, dressed in a long black dress that complemented the translucence of her long silver hair . She appeared especially beautiful .

“Firstly, I would like to say, on behalf of the Spirit Pagoda, congratulations to all of you for making it into the top one hundred contestants . This has already proven your abilities . All of you are the best of the Federation’s younger generation . At the same time, you’ve already qualified for the rewards promised by the Spirit Pagoda . These rewards will be given to you after the Joust For A Spouse Festival has ended .

“Next, we are about to proceed with the lot drawing ceremony . In the name of fairness, we have invited the War God Hall’s Deputy Hall Master to supervise the entire process personally in order to ensure the process is carried out justly and without prejudice . I hope that the real talents will stand out in the following round-robin matches and finally become some of the partner choices for Gu Yuena .

“The round-robin tournament will officially begin tomorrow . I won’t be wasting your time here . I believe that all of you are feeling very tired after participating in the competition for so many days . Do rest and recuperate as soon as possible after the lot drawing ceremony has ended . Be at your best to take on your opponents later . Na’er, please make the announcement . ”

Gu Yuena nodded and spoke indifferently, “Begin the drawing of lots . ”

She sounded light and pleasant . It made the listeners feel like they were being drawn into her voice .

Tang Wulin gazed at the large screen attentively and saw Gu Yuena . Naturally, the sight of her put him in a daze .

A faint smile emerged on his face . Tang Wulin was glowing with a wisp of joyous radiance . He closed his hands before his chest . Every time the light in his eyes changed, there would be a minute fluctuation in the air . ‘Gu Yue, wait for me . ’

Following Gu Yuena’s announcement, the equipment placed in front of the screen began to turn on . The one hundred small balls on the side bounced up and down in the machine . At that moment, an old man descended from the sky and floated above the machine . His hands were clasped behind his back, but he did not seem to be doing anything . However, the people on the scene were all higher-order soul masters with impressive cultivation bases . They could naturally sense that the machine would not be interfered with by anybody else during this process due to the coverage of the old man’s aura .





It was the War God Hall’s Deputy Hall Master, an experienced War God known as the Skycrosser Douluo Guan Yue .

The old man was absolutely a veteran in the War God Hall . He was of the same generation as the Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie and he was also a Limit Douluo-ranked powerhouse . He was of the same rank as the Boundless Sea Douluo but just slightly weaker .

Guan Yue maintained a rather low profile in the War God Hall . He did not hold any military positions, unlike the Boundless Sea Douluo . He was purely a War God, so he had rarely made an appearance except to handle their internal affairs . He rarely came to the forefront, especially during the last few decades . Nevertheless, the Spirit Pagoda managed to invite him . It makes one wonder what price the Spirit Pagoda had to pay for him to make an appearance .


The Skycrosser Douluo closed his eyes and remained suspended in the air as if he had fallen asleep . However, those people aware of his identity could not help feeling profound respect for him . He was a Limit Douluo!

Even though the number of Limit Douluos in the modern world had exceeded the ancient times by far, there were only about a dozen people in the entire Federation that could achieve this rank . Those people were all standing at the top of the entire world .

The War God Hall had relied on the dominance of the Boundless Sea Douluo and the Skycrosser Douluo to become the greatest strength of the federal government .

There was a temporary shortage of powerhouses in the War God Hall’s junior generation . They had yet to produce another Limit Douluo . When these two Limit Douluos’ lives come to an end, the War God Hall could possibly find themselves coming up short . As a result, the Federation had been putting more and more investment into the War God Hall and spared no effort in soliciting talented people .

The little balls bounced continuously inside the dome, and there were a total of ten glass tubes on the machine . The drawing would be completed when these tubes had been filled by the balls .

Guan Yue nodded in the direction of the main platform to signal that there was no issue with the lot drawing process .

Of course, no one would doubt the Skycrosser Douluo’s honor . Any Limit Douluo would uphold his or her dignity by not tolerating any violations . None would think that this Limit Douluo would violate his principles for such a small matter like this .

“Next, we shall announce the result of the drawing of lots . Firstly, we shall announce the first group . Number seventeen, Pan Xingzhou . Number twenty-three…”





The names were called out one by one . The contestants immediately perked up as soon as their names were called . Being placed in a certain group was not the issue . What was far more important was who were one’s group members .

“Number sixty-six, Yu Longyue . ” When the sixth person of the third group was called out, Tang Wulin finally heard his name . He kept a calm and composed expression on his face .

Lan Fozi had already been placed in the second group . Tang Wulin was glad that this opponent, the one he did not wish to fight against the most, was not in the same group .

“Number eighty-eight, Qiangu Zhangting!” On the other hand, the next name that was called out managed to shock everyone .

In unison, all the participants shifted their gaze toward Tang Wulin standing behind, then onto Qiangu Zhangting standing in front .

Both of them had actually encountered one another .

There was no doubt that both of them were the favourites of this event and they were thought to have the ability to enter top ten finalists . However, they were placed together in the third group at present . This meant that only one of them could enter the top ten . This was still presumed without the consideration of other powerhouses .

Qiangu Zhangting turned around and looked toward Tang Wulin standing at the back with a burning gaze . Tang Wulin was calm and composed . He had only pouted his lips and gave a provocative look that completely suited his identity as the arrogant young master of the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan .

The whole thing had been planned the day before .

“Brother Guan, please do me a small favor . I have no choice as that is my grandson! He is a proud and arrogant young man that wishes to challenge a powerhouse . Many people are calling that Yu Longyue powerful, and even Na’er agrees . He wishes to be chosen by Na’er with no regrets after challenging Yu Longyue and defeat him successfully . This is a fight between two powerhouses . This is not really a favor to Zhangting, but a training opportunity for him . Please help me, Brother Guan . ”

“Dongfeng, even though this is not a favor to Zhangting, it is also a violation of the rules! You’re putting me in a difficult position . If this is the case, you shouldn’t have invited me over,” Guan Yue spoke awkwardly as he looked at Qiangu Dongfeng standing before him .

Qiangu Dongfeng chuckled . “Brother Guan, special situation calls for flexibility and changes of plans . It’s not that easy for me to ask for this favor either, Brother!”

Guan Yue hesitated for a moment before he nodded and said, “Alright then . However, you’re the one that’s breaking the rules . If anything goes south, it’s not my responsibility . ”

“Of course, of course! Thanks, Brother Guan . ”

The two great Title Douluos, the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan’s young master and the Spirit Pagoda’s spiriter Qiangu Zhangting, were about to fight against each other in the group match . As soon as news of this matter spread, it triggered an uproar .

Many of the audience members watching the live broadcast were already gasping aloud . Of course, the majority of the audience had a fearless mentality . The battle between two powerhouses was supposed to be the most exciting battle!

There was a large number of Title Douluos that managed to enter the top one hundred finalists . However, not many of them were young and good-looking like them . There was no doubt that Yu Longyue and Qiangu Zhangting belonged in that category . On the other hand, it was highly possible that the people in that category would be chosen by the Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena in the end . So how could this not attracted worldwide attention?
