Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate Chapter 61 - Qualification, Selection, and Competition

Chapter 61: Qualification, Selection, and Competition

“So, does that mean that we’ve obtained the qualification to enter the Dragon God Illusionary Realm?” Lin An asked curiously.
“No,” Feng Lin replied as he pointed at Lin An. “You’ve obtained the qualification, but your companions have not. The two of them can’t do it. If they can’t beat me, they’ll be thrown out of the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm.”
“What if we force our way in?” Lin An inquired.
“Force your way in?” Feng Lin couldn’t hide his surprise.
“If you force your way into a stage that doesn’t match your qualifications, you’ll only be harming yourself and others. Only ten cultivators can enter the Dragon God Illusionary Realm at a time. Every time we go into the realm, we pick the best ten cultivators. Even so, there are still less than one in ten cultivators who qualify to enter the illusionary realm. If you bring the two of them with you, no one will be willing to team up with you. You won’t be able to proceed unless you’re willing to challenge the dangerous illusion on your own!”
At that moment, the success rate system notified Lin An that the probability of the three of them passing the Dragon God’s Illusion was zero, so he believed Feng Lin’s words.
“If my two friends can’t enter the Dragon God Illusionary Realm, it’s still okay for them to hunt around here, right?”
Lan Qi was not too disappointed. At least she had obtained the Hurricane Sword technique. However, Junior Brother Zhou had gained nothing from the trip into the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm, so it would be a tremendous loss for him to exit the mystic realm without any treasures.
The value of the magical beasts and herbs in the fourth level of the mystic realm was not bad. It wouldn’t be a wasted trip if he collected them for a few days.
“That’s fine too. However, there is one more rule, they can’t enter our camp. If they want to enter our camp, they have to defeat me. If they can’t defeat me, I’ll have to throw them out.”
Junior Brother Zhou and Lan Qi said goodbye to Lin An after they heard Feng Lin’s words.
They immediately began to hunt and gather in the areas surrounding the camp. The two Jiuxiao Sect disciples had already seen Feng Lin’s combat skills, and they were sure that they couldn’t defeat him.
Otherwise, Lan Qi and Junior Brother Zhou would have tried their luck, but they couldn’t risk being thrown out of the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm.
Lin An immediately questioned whether Feng Lin was being too formal when it came to beating others up in order to send them out of the mystic realm.
However, with a serious expression on his face, Feng Lin replied that the ways of the ancestors could not be abandoned.
Lin An could not assist Lan Qi and Junior Brother Zhou during their fight for a chance to enter the Dragon God Illusionary Realm.
He could only instruct Lan Qi and Junior Brother Zhou to admit defeat earlier so that they wouldn’t suffer the humiliation of being thrown out of the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm.
After saying goodbye to his friends, Lin An followed Feng Lin into the camp. He abruptly discovered that the members were holding a martial arts competition in order to select the ten contestants who would enter the Dragon God Illusionary Realm in three days’ time.
Since Lin An was from the outside world and had already defeated Feng Lin, he didn’t need to take part in the preliminary stages of the trails. He could only participate once the major competition started.
The first and second days were the preliminaries. After the top twenty were decided, the main competition would be held on the third day.
The camp members had been divided into ten groups to decide the winners. The champion from each group would qualify to enter the Dragon God Illusion Realm.
If anyone had objections to the winner from any group, they could challenge the champion on the same day. If they won, they would take the champion’s place and enter the Dragon God Illusionary Realm.
However, each group’s winner only had one chance to be challenged. Those who accepted a challenge and won did not have to accept any other challenge from the other camp members.
The scale of the camp was huge. There were hundreds of people taking part in the competition, and each of them was a golden core stage expert. The camp was therefore full of martial virtue.
Similar to the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm, the entry requirements for the Dragon God Illusionary Realm were also below the nascent soul stage, so the few old cultivators in the camp who were above the golden core stage weren’t allowed to take part in the competition.
However, some of the older cultivators had actually been to the Dragon God Illusionary Realm and received their inheritance from it during their time as golden core stage disciples.
After the first day, Lin An arrived at the viewing area to watch the competition, and coincidentally, he met Feng Lin, who was bringing in a few disciples dressed in purple into the camp.
Lin An had never seen the purple uniform before, and he hadn’t seen the group of disciples when the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm had opened. Therefore, he concluded that they were disciples from one of the far-off great sects.
As the second batch of cultivators to enter the fourth level of the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm, the disciples who had just arrived appeared to be highly skilled.
There were three men and two women in the group, and their leader was the youngest girl among them.
She walked over towards the bustling crowd, and she seemed to have a radiating aura. The crowd unconsciously opened up a path for her, and she walked smoothly and calmly past the admiring mob.
When the group of cultivators walked past Lin An, he inadvertently overheard the conversation between two of the disciples.
First, there was a delicate but seductive female voice. “Senior Li Kuang, what did you do to the two cultivators who ruined my clothes?”
After a few seconds, a rough male voice replied, “Don’t worry, junior sister. I’ve already beaten them both to the point that they can’t move. I hung them in the forest with vines, and I think the magical beasts have already eaten them. It was also strange that two initial stage golden core cultivators entered the fourth level before us. Could it be that they had some special trick?”
The group of purple-robed cultivators walked past Lin An, and he didn’t hear the rest of their words clearly. However, he suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart after he heard their initial conversation.
“Stop!”
Lin An’s voice was like thunder. The purple-robed cultivators instantly stopped in their tracks and turned around.
Lin An pointed at one of the burly men. “Is your name Li Kuang? What did you guys say just now? Did you attack two human cultivators in the forest?”
The group of arrogant purple-robed cultivators seemed to have just noticed Lin An’s existence.
Even though his robe was actually very eye-catching, the purple-robed cultivators had casually walked past him. It could only mean that they were conceited, and they didn’t care about anyone in the camp.
After looking at Lin An, the cultivators were surprised to learn that there was another outsider in the camp.
They also noticed that Lin An’s attire was similar to that of the two disciples they had attacked in the forest.
Li Kuang immediately understood Lin An’s intention, and he said, “Which sect are you from? From the looks of it, could it be that you’re the senior brother to those two cultivators? They had to pay for ruining my junior sister’s clothes. Take a look, the hem of her clothes was torn into tatters because of their recklessness.”
When he heard Li Kuang’s words, Lin An knew that his guess was right.
The six purple-clothed cultivators were all at the peak of the golden core stage, so Lan Qi and Junior Brother Zhou had no chance of winning a fight against them.
Lin An suppressed his anger and turned around to run into the forest to look for Lan Qi and Junior Brother Zhou.
However, he couldn’t find them. Instead, he found a few traces of what seemed to be Lan Qi activating the Hurricane Sword technique.
Lin An was very annoyed. If he had known that his friends would have encountered such a dangerous situation, he would have quickly let Lan Qi and Junior Brother Zhou leave the Sacred Dragon Mystic Realm. If he hadn’t forced them to stay, they wouldn’t have ended up in their unfortunate situation.
Lin An gritted his teeth and returned to the camp to wait for the official competition to begin on the third day.
Initially, he thought that if he met Li Kuang in the arena, he would have a chance to kill him and avenge his junior brother and sister.
However, he later discovered that the rules of the tournament were that every outsider would have to fight against a local member from the camp.
Lin An would therefore not get an opportunity to avenge his friends’ humiliation during the tournament.
