There were already nearly twenty competitors standing in the small plaza. At this moment, two gigantic towers had been built on both sides of the plaza. Many of the Empire's nobles and officials were gathered in the tower, watching the battle.
Ye Fan took a glance. There were at least twenty thousand spectators, so they were obviously here to watch the last match.
After all the participants had arrived, the First Prince, dressed in golden robes, came to the front of the square and personally presided over the third round of the competition.
Or rather, the importance the Soaring Dragon Empire placed on these twenty-four cultivator who had made it into the final exam.
According to common sense, these 24 people were the strongest 24 people in this exam.
Of course, because of the Night Star Trek's Wrath of Space, there were a few weaker members in the party now, but they were more or less the same.
"The final round of the trial will decide who will finally obtain the qualifications to enter the ZhongTian to train. I hope everyone will perform well and only the strongest can obtain this unparalleled honor!"
The First Prince cleared his throat and continued, "Next, let me talk about the rules of the final exam. The final stage of the trial will be held at Holy Dragon Mountain. At the top of the mountain, there is a purple colored box, and the entry to the Heaven Realm will be placed in that box.
"We have already prepared 24 entrances to the mountain for everyone. The 24 competitors will separately climb the mountain from the 24 entrances. This path will gradually merge into 12, 6, 3, 1!"
"All the participants can only climb the mountain along the path that was decided upon. The moment they leave the path, they will fail and will be eliminated. There are no other restrictions. Everyone can go all out!"
"Next, all participants please head towards the corresponding entrance. I shall now call out the names – Jing Wudi, Gate One; Shui Yuehan, Gate Two …"
"Ye Fan, entrance number 13!"
Hearing his name, Ye Fan headed towards the 13th entrance. It seems like he won't be able to meet Jing Wudi in the early stages.
This sort of method to climb the mountain was clearly an elimination round. The 24 participants would be gradually eliminated, until the last three would ascend the mountain.
All 24 competitors had found their own entrances, Ye Fan also stood in front of the 13th entrance.
Although it was called an entrance, it was actually an arch of light. Currently, there was a barrier over the arch, preventing anyone from entering. It should have been opened after some time.
"Next, I announce the start of the third round!"
As the First Prince's voice spread to every corner, the light screen in front of Ye Fan instantly disappeared and the surrounding competitors rushed in one by one.
Ye Fan walked in unhurriedly. He first looked around and found that the passage in front of him was covered with white mist. No one could be seen. Clearly, he had also used a special method.
Ye Fan started to speed up and ran along the road in front of him. However, Ye Fan did not use his full speed because he felt that this road was not a simple road as the final trial.
Sure enough, after advancing a few dozen kilometers, a rumbling sound suddenly came from above. A huge stone orb followed the road and smashed downwards.
The road wasn't wide. The stone orb had completely sealed off the road. The contestants could only face the stone orb head on. If they left the path then they would be eliminated.
This should be a test that he brought along with him on the road.
Ye Fan laughed coldly and a golden dragon image appeared from his body. He then turned into a golden beam of light as he charged towards the stone orb.
As a cultivator who walked the path of strength, facing this kind of test, naturally, he had to break it with strength!
Boom!
The golden dragon shadow passed through the stone orb and the entire orb suddenly shattered into countless pieces. Ye Fan floated through the air and was not affected at all.
Just as he destroyed the stone ball, another rain of arrows rained down. However, this kind of large-scale attack was completely ineffective to Ye Fan. He could easily shoot away all the attacks with the Star Shield!
Following that, Ye Fan encountered a flood. A large amount of water flowed down the road like a waterfall. "Ye Fan turned into a fiery bird, opening a path with his flames, and evaporating a large amount of water, easily passing the test.
After about a hundred miles, Ye Fan gradually saw a screen of light.
He rushed to the front and saw the scene through the virtual screen. They should have reached the intersection of two roads.
The reason why the light barrier had not been opened was probably because the cultivator at the same intersection as him had yet to arrive.
After waiting for around 20 minutes, the hologram finally opened. Ye Fan walked forward and arrived at the intersection. He met another contestant.
The contestant also saw Ye Fan. However, when he saw Ye Fan, his face instantly turned bitter.
This person, he had bought the Spatial Rage from Ye Fan before, so he was clear about Ye Fan's methods. He didn't expect to meet Ye Fan the first time, so how could he not worry?
Ye Fan was surprised, because this person was not the contestant on Channel 14.
It seemed that this passage was not a merger of the two paths.
