Chapter 363: Not The Same As The Contemptible Wretches
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xu Que really wanted to create something big this time!
One by one, he redeemed the necessary parts . His current pool of Acting Tough Points was deducted by 500, then another 500, and then another 500… He even accidentally redeemed a part twice as his hand got shaky . He nearly sat on the ground to cry his heart out!
But this time, Xu Que was redeeming the Iron Man not just for the purposes of acting tough . He wanted to clean up the whole group of these puppet obstacles!
This was because he now knew very well that this group of people inside the Imperial Tombs was completely incapable of breaking through this round!
Previously when he had gone for a drink with the Seventh Princess, she had told him in detail about this round of contest!
Nobody knew the exact numbers of the ancient armored puppets . They were after all the painstaking efforts of several generations of previous Emperors to guard and protect the Dragon Veins!
It was just that over time, the current Metal Emperor had become wiser and had begun to think differently to his ancestors . He had decided to excavate the Dragon Veins which could benefit the cultivators of the entire Metal Nation!
Hence, they needed not faith nor the fortune of the nation, they only wanted to be powerful and prosperous!
Xu Que agreed totally with the Metal Emperor with regards to this, for it was the right thing to do in his view .
Nevertheless, the restrictive enchantment on the Imperial Tombs was too strong . There would also be numerous traps inside as well . But just these puppets alone were enough to make the Metal Emperor rack his brains!
And that was how the Imperial Tombs Contest had come about!
For many years, all the Imperial Tombs Contests had ended at the round of the ancient armored puppets!
From the initial trials and experiments that had ended in failure to the rounds that had taken place in recent years, they had finally grasped the trend of the puppets' power and had devised a plan to deal with the puppets . These were the results of all the failures that the entire nation had experienced!
However, the method that they had come up with was still barely satisfactory!
Although they had come up with the plan of weapon forging in the Imperial Tombs to take advantage of the restrictive enchantment's loophole, they were still not able to destroy the tens of thousands of ancient armored puppets!
Every time they reached the seventh or eighth round, the magical weapons would have worn out and would no longer be able to withstand the never-ending stream of puppets . The participants would only be able to retreat!
Therefore, this round had practically been the last round of the Imperial Tombs Contest in every year previous, as no one had been able to get through the sea of armored puppets!
As for the contest this year, nobody had expected anyone to get through the puppets . Instead, they had pinned their hopes on more puppets being taken down!
The final rankings would be based on the number of puppets killed!
Outside the Imperial Tombs, the Metal Emperor and the crowd could see clearly what was happening inside the burial chamber via the Heaven and Earth Mirror which had the ability to give a live broadcast! Such mirrors had been installed inside the Imperial Tombs long ago, and there was one inside every burial chamber .
There were also individuals assigned to take the scores of the teams . Every puppet that the teams destroyed would be counted on the scoreboard . That meant the change in ranking would be immediate as well!
. . .
Of course, Xu Que was not bothered about all this!
Xu Que did not care who would become the Crown Prince . He was participating in this contest because he wanted the Genesis Metal Herb, and also the chance for acting tough!
So redeeming the Iron Man was therefore a must for him!
"Young Master Xu, worry not! Let me guard you while you're forging the magical weapon!" the Seventh Princess said softly to Xu Que as he stood there without moving .
She thought that Xu Que was worried about no one guarding him and had not started the weapon forging for this reason .
"There's no need to," smiled Xu Que as he came around after hearing her . "The weapon forging method from the Exploding Heavens Faction is totally different from the method of those contemptible wretches!"
"D*mn, who are you calling the contemptible wretches?"
Immediately, the weapon forging masters nearby became unhappy upon hearing Xu Que's words!
Many participants stared at Xu Que in annoyance!
