Chapter 592: The Finals Begin, Heading to the God and Demon Cemetery
Looking at the calm Chen Changsheng, Kong Xuan sighed and said, “Really not giving them a bit more chance?”
“Some of them aren’t completely beyond saving. It would be a shame if they all fell in this matter.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and replied, “I would like to leave them a way out too, but my rationality tells me that I cannot do so.”
“If they were simply colluding with the Savage Wilderness for the sake of ‘fame,’ then I might spare their lives.”
“After all, the Savage Wilderness isn’t a huge problem; I managed to defeat the reincarnation from back then, so how could I be bothered by a mere little Savage Wilderness?”
“But most of them are not fighting for fame or prestige; they are motivated by ideology and great ambition.”
“The struggle for great ambition only ends in d*ath; having walked down this path, there is no other sentiment to speak of.”
After speaking, Chen Changsheng looked into the distance and said faintly: “Go prepare; the final venue is set in the God and Demon Cemetery.”
“Xu Hu and the others have been holding on outside for quite some time; you must depart quickly.”
“The situation here cannot affect the army’s expedition.”
“Understood!”
Kong Xuan turned and left, leaving Chen Changsheng standing alone on the ground, gazing into the distance.
……
Sword Qi Great Wall.
“I heard your sword techniques have received praise from Xiancha. Do you dare to compete with me?”
Xu Yao stood arrogantly in front of Zhang Zhen, ready to challenge this swordsmanship expert.
In response to Xu Yao’s challenge, Zhang Zhen had not yet spoken when Jian Fei interjected.
“Zhang Zhen, let’s ignore her.”
“Don’t let her sword immortal title fool you; she’s basically a penniless person, fighting her won’t bring you any benefits.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhen was somewhat surprised.
“Is she really that poor?”
“She’s practically so poor that you could hear a clang; the only thing of value on her is the sword in her hand, and that sword was given to her by Xiancha.”
Hearing this, Zhang Zhen nodded and looked at Xu Yao, saying, “You have no money; I won’t fight you.”
Seeing her battle interrupted by Jian Fei, Xu Yao immediately got angry.
“You traitor Jian Fei, do you believe I’ll beat you up?”
“If you hit me, I’ll report you to Xiancha and also go to the Wall Guards.”
“Sword Qi Great Wall has explicit rules against private fighting between cultivators.”
“If the rules are violated, Xiancha will stand by my side.”
Glaring at Jian Fei’s smug expression, Xu Yao felt resentment bubbling within her.
She thought that Zhang Zhen’s arrival would lead to him being isolated, yet unexpectedly, Jian Fei was siding with him.
If it weren’t for the rules of the Sword Qi Great Wall, she would definitely teach this traitor a lesson.
Just as Xu Yao was pondering how to engage in a duel with Zhang Zhen, Chen Changsheng arrived.
Seeing Chen Changsheng’s figure, Xu Yao immediately stepped forward to complain.
“Xiancha, why am I only worth ten thousand points?”
“I don’t care; you have to raise my price.”
In response to Xu Yao’s complaint, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, “If you win first place in the Sword Cultivator Conference, I will give you an additional ten thousand points.”
“Really?”
“A gentleman’s word is hard to chase.”
“And if I k*ll this Zhang Zhen, how many points will I get?”
“Still ten thousand.”
With Chen Changsheng’s response, Xu Yao proudly glanced at Zhang Zhen and said, “Did you hear that? You’re only worth ten thousand points too. Once the Sword Cultivator Conference ends, I will definitely surpass you.”

After speaking, Xu Yao turned and left the room.
Seeing Xu Yao’s state, Jian Fei wanted to say something.
“Better keep your mouth shut for now.”
Chen Changsheng slightly raised his hand to stop Jian Fei.
“Tomorrow is the resurrection match and the semifinals. I believe you will not disappoint me.”
“The day after tomorrow is the finals of the Sword Cultivator Conference; I will give you all a big surprise.”
After speaking, Chen Changsheng left everyone with a mysterious smile and returned to his room.
Watching Chen Changsheng’s back, the remaining members felt a sense of unease.
They felt as if a huge net was slowly descending.
……
Night fell, and the sun rose.
Through the night, time quietly passed, and the semifinals and resurrection matches of the Sword Cultivator Conference were progressing smoothly.
In just half a day, one hundred eighty talented individuals emerged.
Without the obstacle of the dark horse Zhang Zhen, Gui Qianjie and her companions smoothly advanced from the resurrection matches.
Among these one hundred eighty talented individuals, four stood out the most.
The ones with the most renowned names were certainly the Sword Immortal Xu Yao and the Rainfall Sword Nangong Xing.
The two most famous sword cultivators in the Eight Desolates Nine Domains were about to compete, a scene that naturally excited everyone.
In addition, there were two others that drew continuous discussion from the crowd.
One of them was without a doubt the biggest dark horse of the Sword Cultivator Conference, Zhang Zhen, whose invincible stance was witnessed by all.
As for the last person among the four, all the cultivators present felt a lump in their throats.
This individual had only participated in one match, then made it all the way to the semifinals without competing again.
This kind of luck could only be described as almost heavenly; if it weren’t for the status of Sword Immortal Xu Yao and the many talented individuals, people would have long suspected there was something fishy about it.
“Buzz!”
Ma Hu exuded a faint pressure, and the entire venue immediately quieted down.
Seeing this, Kong Xuan smiled as he stood up from his throne and said, “Talents emerge in the Eight Desolates Nine Domains, and as a member of the Heavenly Court, I am very pleased.”
“Because of you, the Eight Desolates Nine Domains have a future.”
“I just received word that spies from the Savage Wilderness infiltrated the God and Demon Cemetery, intending to destroy the opportunities of our Eight Desolates Nine Domains.”
“Now, those spies have been trapped in the God and Demon Cemetery.”
“In order not to waste this opportunity for training, I have specially changed the format of the finals.”
“The first person to capture the leader of the spies and bring them to the ‘Burial Mountain’ in the God and Demon Cemetery will be the champion of this Sword Cultivator Conference.”
Upon hearing this, many of the top talents frowned.
The sudden change in the final match caught everyone off guard.
Thinking of this, Su You immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands, asking, “Dare I ask, Your Majesty, how many spies are in the God and Demon Cemetery?”
“The specific number of spies is unknown, but one of them has been marked.”
“Capture this person, and you can find the other hidden spies in the God and Demon Cemetery.”
As he spoke, Kong Xuan distributed a jade slip to everyone.
“This jade slip will react when you are within ten steps of a spy. With this, it will be easier for you to search.”
“Whoosh!”
A massive teleportation array appeared in front of everyone, and without giving them a chance to ask further, Kong Xuan directly transported them away.
……
God and Demon Cemetery.
One hundred eighty talented individuals appeared in the center of the teleportation array.
Looking at the vast surroundings, someone immediately complained, “What the heck is this? The Heavenly Court is playing us.”
“With such a large area in the God and Demon Cemetery, how long will it take for us one hundred eighty people to find anything?”
