“Since you’re so confident, why not?” Brutal Bones’s heart shuddered, but he still smiled as usual. “What’s the bet?”
“Three Blood Dragon Fruits against the original copy of your tribe’s White Bone Magical Power!” Black Tu laughed.
“Playing with such high stakes? I’ll add a bet then, on the Black Tomb tribe. A pound of Tianhe White Sand. Who will bet against me?”
“Haha, I’ll take it. I’m putting ten bottles of Bloodline Pills on the Flybarb tribe!”
Brutal Bones was still considering it, but some tribal leaders were beginning to fan the flames.
“All right. I’ll take the bet!” Brutal Bones gnashed his teeth.
The White Bone Magical Power was much more advanced than the Modest Wind Technique. It could even be called a great magical power and was one of the pillars of the Flybarb tribe.
“Very good!” Black Tu sneered. “Everyone present is a witness!”
He immediately closed his eyes, showing a calm manner.
Brutal Bones began to suspect something was up seeing his strange appearance.
...
“Hehe, Black Tu and Brutal Bones, that pair of old enemies!” Beichen Luo chuckled, looking upon everything from his host seat.
It would be better for him if these tribes fought as fiercely as they could since it was advantageous to the rule of the Beichen tribe. However, he still had to try to reconcile them on the surface. “Leaders, please keep the harmony!
“But if everyone wants to bet, I can be the intermediary!”
Beichen Luo had a face full of smiles as he encouraged everyone. It unconsciously caused several tribes to take outside bets, and the stakes quietly raised.
...
“I’m afraid none of the leaders of these tribes are simple. Since they could survive in such an environment where only the strongest survive, they must have strength, methods, and ingenuity. Therefore, I can’t be too outstanding. Otherwise... I might be eliminated in advance if they feel threatened. Wouldn’t that be terrible?”
Fang Yuan stood on the arena, still thinking wildly. “Luckily, I have an advantage. That is, the grade of my totem is too low. Since it’s below the third grade, this means that my potential is limited. Yes, that’s it. I’ll try to showcase my talent with my saber technique and average it out for my totem.”
“Fang Yuan from the Flybarb tribe versus Gu San from the Broken Bone tribe!”
At that moment, his opponent was already standing opposite him. The young man with scars all over his body roared and released his totem.
“Too slow! Too slow!”
Fang Yuan rushed forward and chopped at him with the back of the Black Profound Saber.
‘”Ahh!” The young man was still slowly releasing his totem, which turned into a giant tiger.
Bang!
The Black Profound Saber landed on the back of his neck. Even though the totem blocked some of the power, the remaining force still caused Gu San to pass out.
“Victor, Fang Yuan!” The host looked at Fang Yuan with his bright eyes. “What good saber skills! Your timing was also very good!”
Fang Yuan bowed slightly and jumped off the arena.
He was one of the faster ones, so he had the time to look at the other battlefields.
“Rookie!”
“Rookie!”
“Rookie!”
After watching three battles in a row, Fang Yuan immediately shook his head. “In the end, it’s just a bunch of fifteen and sixteen-year-olds. They are too immature. Most of them are at the mid Predatory realm, and a rare few are at the late stage! Their martial arts are also average. I could beat ten of them without any problem!”
How experienced was he? For now, it seemed like all of them were just rookies, and he had no interest in them.
“Hmm, Brutal Moon’s opponent only has a fifth-grade totem. At the mid Predatory realm, she should be able to win!”
“And Brutal Dark, why is he so brutal and irritated all of a sudden? Did someone provoke him?”
Although they were just rookies pecking at one another, there was still a division between the strong and the weak.
Fang Yuan estimated that only the three of them could advance from the first round within the Flybarb tribe.
This result was already good for a small tribe. Those at the bottom of the rankings would probably be the first to be eliminated.
Ahhh! Ahh!
Fang Yuan’s gaze shifted to an arena.
There, Black Fury from the Black Tomb tribe snarled, and the earth burly bear behind him did the same action, smashing a heavy tortoise totem in front of him into pieces.
“Hmm, the strength in his arms is probably thousands of kilograms, huh?” Fang Yuan nodded. “The earth burly bear is indeed a totem known for its strength and increasing the power of its host. Incredible!”
The body would receive nourishment from the totem once it awakened.
Of course, anything below seventh grade had almost no difference at all.
For people at fifth or sixth grade like Fang Yuan, they experienced different levels of nourishment depending on their totem.
For example, his clam totem focused on illusions and psyche. Brutal Dark’s horned dragon totem strengthened the skin’s defense. As for Black Fury, his was a pure increment in strength, which was quite terrifying.
With thousands of kilograms of strength in his arms, waving a heavy hammer that was hundreds of kilograms was nothing to him.
“This Black Fury must also practice a heavy weapon, which can sweep away most of the contestants.”
Fang Yuan quickly contrasted in his heart. “Brutal Dark would only be taking a beating if they fought, let alone Brutal Moon...”
“Hmm? Leader Black Tu, Black Fury from your tribe is very strong!” Beichen Luo’s eyes brightened. “The earth burly bear totem is quite good!”
“Hehe...” Black Tu could not stop laughing. The faces of the tribal leaders that placed their bets on the Flybarb tribe turned ugly.
They could see that this Black Fury had the power to be first. That genius from the Flybarb tribe, Brutal Dark, might be pretty good, but there was truly no comparison.
...
“Sigh...The Beichen Ceremony this year has nothing special!”
While the leaders were sighing, a seemingly ordinary young barbarian was wandering between the many arenas.
“Too weak, too weak, realm is too low, basic martial arts are not up to par either!”
As the special envoy of the Ancestral Court with the best resources, he had seen many geniuses and naturally had a discerning eye.
His eyes finally lit up when he saw the Black Fury’s battle. “The earth burly bear is definitely the best among the third-grade totems! His natural power is almost invincible in the lower realms!”
“Ahh!”
The results were out for Brutal Dark’s match as well.
However, there was a bloodthirsty smile on his lips after he won. He stepped forward and broke all four of his opponent’s limbs.
The bloody scene made many spectators turn their heads and shiver.
“His battle was frenzied, but nothing much. Looking at him, he is obviously caught up in his desire to kill and can’t extricate himself. His temperament is really...” The young man shook his head. “Addiction to killing is nothing, but if his temperament isn’t good, he’s not a talent that we can train!”
If Brutal Dark heard this evaluation about him, he would have felt so wronged.
Although he was usually arrogant and despotic, he was not as bad as this. He was totally provoked by Fang Yuan today.
Chirp chirp!
The crisp sound from a bird rang.
All the youths who had their totems out were stunned, and fear came from their totems.
“Beichen Yan, second-grade totem Vermilion Bird!”
The young man’s eyes lit up toward a certain arena.
“Your strength isn’t bad. You’re qualified to see my totem!”
This young master of the Beichen tribe was wearing white, but his hair and eyebrows were fiery red. He crossed his arms and looked at his opponent.
Opposite him was an honest and good-natured young man holding an iron shield. He released the third-grade totem revolving turtle!
“Rock Forest, you are able to be the first in a small tribe. The defense of a revolving turtle, even as a third-grade totem, is almost impossible to break. It’s a pit that you met me!” Beichen Yan said lightly and pushed out his palm.
Swoosh!
A line of fire emerged and rushed forward.
“Block!” Rock Forest shouted and raised his shield.
But the next moment, that line of fire actually turned in the air and landed on the revolving turtle totem.
Poof!
The flames devoured the totem, and since their minds were linked, the revolving turtle young man spat blood and collapsed.
“He’s cultivated the fire of the Vermilion Bird and is able to control it at will?” The eyes of the Ancestral Court’s special envoy gleamed. “This is a true genius! Beichen Yan is definitely assured a spot for the trip to the Ancestral Court!”
The Ancestral Court was the origin of all barbarians, their Holy Land.
Those who could go there were naturally the geniuses among geniuses.
Generally speaking, a third-grade totem was the minimum. However, first and second-grade totems would inevitably be accepted as long as they showcased their talent.
“Next, Fang Yuan from the Flybarb tribe versus Black Earth from the Black Tomb tribe!”
Fang Yuan immediately got on the arena when he heard the shout. He looked at his opponent.
“Flybarb tribe’s Fang Yuan, I won’t make the same mistake as the previous person!”
Black Earth showed his totem early. It was a fourth-grade diamond bear totem with astonishing defense.
A metallic color appeared on their skin.
“Oh!” Fang Yuan nodded, and his figure flickered. His Black Profound Saber appeared.
“Huh? I can’t see clearly!” Black Earth opened his eyes wide but still could not see his opponent.
Dang!
Just when he was at a loss, the back of the saber landed on his head.
“I have the diamond bear totem. You can’t break it...” Black Earth shouted. Suddenly, his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed.
“He can’t even take my two-layered dark burst...” Fang Yuan shook his head and got off the arena.
“Dark burst?” The young envoy’s eyes lit up once again.
...
After a day, all of the battles were over, and the top eight emerged.
Fang Yuan obtained a few basic information from Brutal Thunder in the evening.
“First place, Beichen Yan, Vermilion Bird totem, unknown strength. A worthy first!”
“Second place, Black Fury, earth burly bear totem, relies on that brute strength to conquer all obstacles!”
“Most of the following ones are third-grade totems. Brutal Dark is also among them. I’m last, but outsiders assessed that I’m the most mysterious because I didn’t even show my totem!”
Fang Yuan could not help but laugh bitterly.
He would not have caused such a stir if he had released his totem.
The clam totem was at most a fifth or sixth grade after all. It was really nothing much.
To the Ancestral Court, it had to take the first and second-grade totems while it would only take the most outstanding among the third-grade totems.
Anyone lower than that had to have some kind of special ability to even catch its eye.
